  • We have generated the needle-typed nonthermal plasma jet by using an Ar gas flow at atmospheric pressure. Diagnostics of electron temperature anddensity is critical factors in optimization of the atmospheric plasma jet source in accordance with the gas flow rate. We have investigated the electron temperature and density of plasma jet by selecting the four metastable Ar emission lines based on the atmospheric collisional radiative model and radial profile characteristics of current density, respectively. The averaged electron temperature and electron density for this plasma jet are found to be ~1.6 eV and ~$3.2{\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$, respectively, in this experiment. The densities of OH radical species inside the various bio-solutions are found to be higher by about 4~9 times than those on the surface when the argon bioplasma jet has been bombarded onto the bio-solution surface. The densities of the OH radicalspecies inside the DI water, DMEM, and PBS are measured to be about $4.3{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$, $2.2{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$, and $2.1{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$, respectively, at 2 mm downstream from the surface under optimized Ar gas flow 250 sccm.

  • Mooring survey for measurement of tidal current and suspended sediments was carried out at 4 inlets of Yeoja Bay in April, 2000 in order to understand the source of sediment supply. Net suspended sediment transport load during 2 tidal cycles through the M-1(West Inlet) was $133.88\;kg{\cdot}m^{-1}$ toward the Yeoja Bay, whereas the flux through the M-2(Jabal Inlet) was outward the Bay with the amount of $146.43\;kg{\cdot}m^{-1}$. The influx through the M-3 and 4(Bulgyo and Dong Isa Stream) was $23.25\;kg{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and $4,312.31\;kg{\cdot}m^{-1}$ toward the Yeoja Bay, respectively. Influx of suspended sediment on Yeoja Bay mainly occurred in the Dong Isa Stream. In the wet season the composition of surface was coarser-grained than dry season, possibly due to the influx of silty sediment from Dong Isa Stream In the wet season.

  • In this Paper, we developed a low power type LED security light using LED lighting that substitutes a 220[V] commercial power source for a solar cell module instead of a halogen or a sodium lamp. in addition, a PWM type drive control circuit is designed to minimize the heat generation problem and the drive current of the LED drive controller. in developed system, The light efficiency measurement value is 93.6[lm/W], and a high precision temperature sensor is used inside the controller to control the heat generation of the LED lamp. In order to eliminate the high heat generated from the LED lamp, it is designed to disperse quickly into the atmosphere through the metal insertion type heat sink. The heat control range of LED lighting was $50-55[^{\circ}C]$. The luminous flux and the lighting speed of the LED security lamp were 0.5[s], and the beam diffusion angle of the LED lamp was about $110[^{\circ}C]$ by the light distribution curve based on the height of 6[m].

  • Method of besoil analysis were difficult to be applied universally since the use and the source material of bedsoils are diverse from country to country. Korean Standard Methods for Bedsoil Analysis was developed to measure the particle and bulk density. Fifty-three samples for horticultural bedsoil and nine samples for paddy rice bedsoil in the current market were collected. Particle density was measured by electrical pyconometer with He gas, and bulk density by the sandbox method, free fall method, plunger compaction method, free fall and plunger method, and sample weight compaction method. While the use of glass pycnometer which measures particle density to fill blank space with water was inappropriate due to floating organic and calcined inorganic materials in the water, the electrical pycnometer with gas type was suitable considering speed and accuracy. For bulk density, the sandbox method recommended as European Standard Method was more reasonable in principle than other methods. However, this method requires expensive apparatus and intricate process. Plunger compaction method was proposed as standard method, since it had higher consistence with the sandbox method than other methods, as well as an advantage of easy and prompt measurement. Particle density of bedsoil ranged $1.48{\sim}2.67Mg\;m^{-3}$(mean $1.93Mg\;m^{-3}$) for horticultural bedsoil and $2.33{\sim}2.67Mg\;m^{-3}$ (mean $2.43Mg\;m^{-3}$) for paddy rice bedsoil by the electrical pycnometer with He gas. Bulk density of bedsoil ranged $0.11{\sim}0.40Mg\;m^{-3}$ (mean $0.22Mg\;m^{-3}$) for horticultural bedsoil and $0.84{\sim}1.26Mg\;m^{-3}$(mean $1.01Mg\;m^{-3}$) for paddy rice bedsoil by plunger compaction method.

  • The objective of this study is to investigate the environmental impact of fine dust generated at the construction waste intermediate treatment plants, and to propose engineering data and measures to suppress the generation of fine dust to cope with the expected strengthened environmental regulations of the government. The following study conclusions are drawn. 1) T he maximum concentration of fine dust in the workplace was measured as 160㎍/m3 from the crushing operation followed by the point of waste unloading, where focused suppression plan of the fine dust generation is needed in the future. 2) Fine dust concentrations of 113㎍/m3 in wet road conditions and 50㎍/m3 in dry conditions were measured, indicating that fine dust could be reduced by 50% with watering alone. 3) The effect of distancing from the dust source was studied. PM10 during operation of the workplace was measured as about 25㎍/m3 higher than those of the neighboring areas. Whereas there was no significant difference in case of PM2.5 between workplace and neighboring areas. 4) The measurement results of the heavy metal contents showed that these metals did not affect neighboring areas.

  • The current weapon system is operated as a complex weapon system with various standards and protocols applied, so there is a risk of failure in smooth information exchange during combined and joint operations on the battlefield. The interoperability of weapon systems to carry out precise strikes on key targets through rapid situational judgment between weapon systems is a key element in the conduct of war. Since the Korean military went into service, there has been a need to change the configuration and improve performance of a large number of software and hardware, but there is no verification system for the impact on interoperability, and there are no related test tools and facilities. In addition, during combined and joint training, errors frequently occur during use after arbitrarily changing the detailed operation method and software of the weapon/power support system. Therefore, periodic verification of interoperability between weapon systems is necessary. To solve this problem, rather than having people schedule an evaluation period and conduct the evaluation once, AI should continuously evaluate the interoperability between weapons and power support systems 24 hours a day to advance warfighting capabilities. To solve these problems, To this end, preliminary research was conducted to improve defense interoperability capabilities by applying natural language processing techniques (①Word2Vec model, ②FastText model, ③Swivel model) (using published algorithms and source code). Based on the results of this experiment, we would like to present a methodology (automated evaluation of interoperability requirements evaluation / level measurement through natural language processing model) to implement an automated defense interoperability evaluation tool without relying on humans.

  • The daily net primary production by phytoplankton in the southeastern sea of Korea in October 1985 ranged from 0.7 to 2.7 gCm$\^$-2/ d$\^$-1/ and averaged to be 1.3 gCm$\^$-2/ d$\^$-1/. Surface total chlorophyll ranged from 0.97 to 3.59mg chlm$\^$-3/. Primary production by nano-phytoplankton(〈20$\mu\textrm{m}$) ranged from 43 to 97% in the surface layer. Optimum light intensity(Iopt)was around 300 to 700${\mu}$Es$\^$-1/m$\^$-1/. Surface primary production from 9:00 to 15:00 h was evidently inhibited by strong light intensity beyond the Iopt. Phytoplankton near the base of euphotic zone(30-40m) showed extremely low Iopt suggesting adaptation to a low light environment. Since Iopt represents the history of light experience of phytoplankton at a given depth, the extent of variation in I of phytoplankton at different depth seems to be related to the in tensity of turbulence mixing in the surface mixed layer. From the present study, ammonium excretion by macrozooplankton (〉350$\mu\textrm{m}$) contributes from 3 to 19% of daily total nitrogen requirement by phytoplandton in this area. Calculation of upward flux of nitrate to the surface mixed layer from the lower layer, based on the simple diffusion model, approximates 3% of nitrogen requirement by phytoplankton. However, large portion of nitrogen requirement by phytoplankton remains unexplained in this area. In upwelling area near the coast, adjective flux might be the major source for the nitrogen requirement by phytoplankton. This study suggests that the major nitrogen source for the phytoplankton growth might come from the pelagic regeneration by nano-and micro-sized heterotrophic plandkon. Enhancement of primary production during the passage of the warm Tsushima Current is discussed in relation with nutrient dynamics and hydrlgraphic processes in this area.

  • A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigerating Engineering in 1998 and 1999 has been done. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, ventilation, sanitation and building environment. The conclusions are as follows. 1) A review of the recent studies on fluid flow, turbomachinery and pipe-network shows that many experimental investigations are conducted in applications of impingement jets. Researches on turbulent flows, pipe flows, pipe-networks are focused on analyses of practical systems and prediction of system performance. The results of noise reduction in the turbomachinery are also reported. 2) A review of the recent studies on heat transfer analysis and heat exchanger shows that there were many papers on the channel flow with the application to the design of heat exchanger in the heat transfer analysis. Various experimental and numerical papers on heat exchanger were also published, however, there were few papers available for the analysis of whole system including heat exchanger. 3) A review of the recent studies on heat pump system have focused on the multi-type system and the heat pump cycle to utilize treated sewage as the heat source. The defrosting and the frosting behaviors in the fin-tube heat exchanger is experimentally examined by several authors. Several papers on the ice storage cooling system are presented to show the dynamic simulation program and optimal operation conditions. The study on the micro heat pipes for the cooling of high power electronic components is carried out to examine the characteristics of heat and mass transfer processed. In addition to these, new type of separate thermosyphon is studied experimentally. 4) The recent studies on refrigeration/air conditioning system have focused on the system performance and efficiency for new alternative refrigerants. New systems operating with natural refrigerants are drawing lots of attention. In addition to these, evaporation and condensation heat transfer characteristics of traditional and new refrigerants are investigated for plain tubes and also for microfin tubes. Capillary tubes and orifice are main topics of research as expansion devices and studies on thermophysical properties of new refrigerants and refrigerant/oil mixtures are widely carried out. 5) A review of the recent studies on absorption cooling system shows that numerous experimental and analytical studies on the improvement of absorber performance have been presented. Dynamic analysis of compressor have been performed to understand its vibration characteristics. However research works on tow-phase flow and heat transfer, which could be encountered in the refrigeration system and various phase-change heat exchanger, were seemed to be insufficient. 6) A review of recent studies on duct system shows that the methods for circuit analysis, and flow balancing have been presented. Researches on ventilation are focused on the measurement of ventilation efficiency, and variation of ventilation efficiency with ventilation methods by numerous experimental and numerical studies. Furthermore, many studies have been conducted in real building in order to estimate indoor thermal environments. Many research works to get some information for cooling tower design have been performed but are insufficient. 7) A review on the recent studies on architectural thermal environment and building mechanical systems design shows that thermal comfort analysis is sitting environment, thermal performance analysis of Korean traditional building structures., and evaluation of building environmental load have been performed. However research works to improve the performance of mechanical system design and construction technology were seemed to be insufficient.
