The objective of this study is to experimentally measure condensation heat transfer at the vapor-liquid interface of boiling bubbles generated in subcooled water. Rainbow Schlieren Deflectometry (RSD) is an optical technique that allows for the non-intrusive visualization of the temperature gradient field in liquid. It is known that the refractive index of a liquid changes as a function of temperature. When light passes through a liquid medium, the degree of deflection is proportional to the spatial gradient of the temperature field. The deflected light passes through a rainbow filter with a continuous variation in color from the center to the outer boundary. As a result, the temperature gradient field in the liquid can be visualized as a color contour. Boiling experiments in a pool of subcooled water were conducted to visualize the temperature gradient field near the vapor-liquid interface of a vapor bubble. A set of RSD images was obtained for the entire life cycle of a boiling bubble, from nucleation through growth to departure from the heating wall. The temperature gradient field near the vapor-liquid interface around the bubble was carefully analyzed. The condensation heat transfer coefficient was calculated and compared to existing prediction models.

The genetically-engineered Escherichia coli strain, DPD2540, which contains a fabA:::luxCDAbefusion gene, gives a bioluminescent output when membrane fatty acid synthesis is needed. For more pactical application of this strain in the filed as biosensor, freezedrying was adopted. A 12% surcrose solution with Luria-Bertani (LB) broth, as determined by the viability after freeze-drying, was found to be most most effective composition for lyophilization solution among various compositions testitons tested. Rapid freezing with liquid nitrogen also gave the best viability after freeze-drying as compared to samples frozen at-7$0^{\circ}C$ and -2$0^{\circ}C$. The biosensing activities of the cells showed a greater sensitivity when the cells from the expontial phase were freeze-dried. Finally, the optimum temperature for use of the freeze-dried cells in the biodencor field was determined.

The Mar-M-247 alloy is one of the most widely used materials for gas turbine components in aerospace filed and it shows excellent high temperature strength properties. Hot section parts, such as turbine nozzle and blade, are difficult to manufacture because of their complicated shape. So, the joining process usually applies to them. In this study, the high-temperature behavior of Mar-M-247 alloy at liquid diffusion bonding was investigated. Thus, we performed the diffusion bonding at $1,121^{\circ}C$ for 7 minutes, and observed changes in high temperature strength. As a result, the strength of the bonded specimens decreased by about 70% at $649^{\circ}C$, 60% at $825^{\circ}C$, and 45% at $1,000^{\circ}C$ compared to the base metal. As a result of observing the strength change with bonding time, the specimen bonded for 720 minutes showed a similar strength with the base metal at $649^{\circ}C$. Inferring this result, the joint is considered to be the one-body part.

An experiment was performed to study solidification of binary mixture with double-diffusive convection in the liquid. A rectangular enclosure was filled with ammonium chloridewater solution. The phase change and convection process were studied through shadowgraph. Becasuse of the double-diffusive convection, the temperature field and concentration filed were stratified very rapidly. Correlation between solidified mass fraction and the dimensionless numbers was found; solidified mass concentration can be expressed as a linear function of $(Ste{\cdot}Ra^{1/4})^{2-Ste}{\cdot}Fo^{1/2}$.
