The objective of this study is to obtain the correlation between the spray characteristics and the etching characteristics for the optimization of etching system in the micro fabrication industry. The etching characteristics such as etching rate were measured under different conditions. The single spray characteristics such as droplet size and velocity were measured by PDA system. These were compared to the etching characteristics. The twin spray characteristics in the overlap region were analyzed to predict the effect of them on the etching characteristics with the pitch and also were compared to the single spray. The etching rate was increased in case of high spray pressure and in the region of spray center. It was found that the etching characteristics could be correlated with the single spray characteristics and the twin spray characteristics were correlated with the etching characteristics.

An experimental study of the vortex interaction characteristics of a delta wing/LEX configuration was conducted in a wind tunnel using the micro water droplet and laser beam sheet visualization technique. The main focus of this study was to analyze the effect of the angle of attack and sideslip angle on the vortex interaction and vortex breakdown. These tests were accomplished at angles of attack between $16^{\circ}$ and $28^{\circ}$ and sideslip angle between $0^{\circ}$ and $-15^{\circ}$ at free-stream velocity of 6.2 m/s. Flow visualization data provide a description of the vortex interaction between LEX and wing vortices, and of the vortex breakdown. The introduction of LEX vortex stabilized the vortical flow, and delayed the vortex breakdown up to higher angle of attack. The vortex interaction and breakdown was promoted on the windward side, whereas they are suppressed on the leeward side.

The surface cleaning method based on the laser-induced breakdown (LIB) of gas and subsequent plasma and shock wave generation can remove small particles from solid surfaces. In the laser shock cleaning (LSC) process, a high-power laser pulse induces optical breakdown of the ambient gas above the solid surface covered with contaminant particles. The subsequently created shock wave followed by a high-speed flow stream detaches the particles. In this work, a novel surface cleaning process using laser-induced breakdown of liquid is introduced and demonstrated. LIB of a micro liquid jet increases the shock wave intensity and thus removes smaller particle than the conventional LSC method. Experiments demonstrate that the cleaning force and cleaning efficiency are also increased significantly by this method.

To investigate spray and combustion of emulsified fuel of W/O type, we mixed water with light oil by using ultrasonic energy adding system. We measured the SMD of sprayed droplet to find atomization characteristics of emulsified fuel with using the Malvern 2600D system. Major parameters are the weight ratio of water($0{\sim}30%$ by 10%) in emulsified fuel injection pressure(lobar), and the measurement distance($10{\sim}100mm$ by 10mm). Combustion visualizing system is made up commonly used boiler system and digital camera 1/500s to investigate combustion phenomena. As a result, the more water contents increased, the more SMD increased. The water particle of emulsified fuel made short flame in continuos spray combustion phenomena because of micro explosion.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) is excessive hepatic lipid accumulation mainly caused by obesity. This study aimed to evaluate whether micro-current stimulation(MCS) could modulate lipid metabolism regarding the Sirt1/AMPK pathway, fatty acid β-oxidation pathway, and lipolysis and lipogenesis-related factors in FL83B cells. For the NAFLD cell model, FL83B cells were treated with oleic acid for lipid accumulation. MCS were stimulated for 1 hr and used frequency 10 Hz, duty cycle 50%, and biphasic rectangular current pulse. The intensity of MCS was divided into 50, 100, 200, and 400 ㎂. Through the results of Oil red O staining, it was confirmed that MCSs with the intensity of 200 ㎂ and 400 ㎂ significantly reduced the degree of lipid droplet formation. Thus, these MCS intensities were applied to western blot analysis. Western blot analysis was performed to analyze the effects of MCS on lipid metabolism. MCS with the intensity of 400 ㎂ showed that significantly activated the Sirt1/AMPK pathway, a key pathway for regulating lipid metabolism in hepatocytes, and fatty acid β-oxidation-related transcription factors. Moreover, it activated the lipolysis pathway and suppressed lipogenesis-related transcription factors such as SREBP-1c, FAS, and PPARγ. In the case of MCS with the intensity of 200 ㎂, only PGC1α and SREBP-1c showed significant differences compared to cells treated only with oleic acid. Taken together, these results suggested that MCS with the intensity of 400 ㎂ could alleviate hepatic lipid accumulation by modulating lipid metabolism in hepatocytes.

Size distribution of particulate water-soluble ion components was measured at Gosan, Korea using a micro-orifice uniform deposit impactor (MOUDI). Sulfate, ammonium, and nitrate showed peaks in three size ranges; Sulfate and ammonium were of dominant species measured in the fine mode ($D_{p} < 1.8 {\mu}m$). One peak was observed in the condensation mode ($0.218\sim0.532{\mu}m$), and the other peak was obtained in the droplet mode ($0.532\sim1.8{\mu}m$). Considering the fact that the equivalent ratios of ammonium to sulfate ranged from 0.5 to 1.0 in these size ranges, it is inferred that they formed sufficiently neutralized compounds such as ($NH_{4})_{2}SO_{4} and (NH_{4})_{3}H(SO_{4})_{2}$ during the long-range transport of anthropogenic pollutants. On the other hand, nitrate was distributed mainly in the coarse mode ($3.1\sim6.2{\mu}m$) combined with soil and sea salt. Two sets of MOUDI samples were collected in each season. One sample was collected when the concentrations of criteria air pollutants were relatively high, but the other represented relatively clean air quality. The concentrations of sulfate and ammonium particles in droplet mode were the highest in winter and the lowest in summer. When the air quality was bad, the increase of nitrate was observed in the condensation mode ($0.218\sim0.282{\mu}m$). It thus suggests that the nitrate particles were produced through gas phase reaction of nitric acid with ammonia. Chloride depletion was remarkably high in summer due to the high temperature and relative humidity.

350Kw급 이하의 초소형 터보제트엔진에서 연료 미립화 특성을 만족하는 분사시스템을 개발하는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 그러나 회전 연료 분사시스템은 복잡한 고압연료펌프 시스템 없이도 엔진축의 원심력만을 이용함으로써 좋은 미립화를 할 수 있다. 이러한 이유로, 직경 40 mm의 매우 작은 회전식 연료 인젝터를 제작하였으며, 여러 가지 크기의 분사 오리피스에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. PDPA 측정 시스템을 사용하여 입자의 크기와 속도, 분무분포를 측정하였다. 실험 결과, 분사 오리피스로부터 분출된 단일 액주의 길이는 회전속도에 의해 제어되며, SMD는 회전수가 증가함에 따라 감소하고, 오리피스의 직경과 오리피스 내부에 생성되는 액막두께에 큰 영향을 받는다.

부유중인 분진의 화재 및 용기 또는 파이프의 미세한 균열에서 비산되는 가연성 액체의 분무화재의 위험성은 착화후의 고속 확산과 높은 열방출율로 인하여 매우 높은 것으로 알려졌다. 이에 대한 연구는 주로 실험적으로나 또는 거시적인 관점의 해석으로 제한되어 왔다. 본 연구는 미시적인 관점의 해석으로서 분진 및 분무를 가연성 미세 액적으로 가정하여 그의 증발과 착화에 대하여 연구하였다. 첫 단계로서 일열의 액적 배열을 계산영역으로 하여, 비정상 이차원 보존방정식들을 적용하였다. 수치해석은 일반화된 비직교 좌표계를 사용하였고, 화학반응은 Arrhenius의 법칙에 의하여 반응속도가 제어되는 일단계 반응을 고려하였다. 계산결과는 액적 주위의 온도와 반응물질의 농도분포를 시간에 따라 보여준다. 주위의 산소가 증발하는 액적의 연료와 섞이기 시작하고 착화 조건에 다다르면, 급격한 발열반응이 예혼합된 가스로부터 일어나기 시작한다. 최대온도 영역은 점차적으로 액적 표면으로 이동하며 최대온도는 착화이후 급격히 상승한다. 연료와 산소의 농도는 최대온도 영역 근처에서 최소값을 보인다. 따라서 착화순간에는 예혼합연소의 양상을 띠는 것으로 나타났다. 이후에는 예혼합 가스의 소멸로 확산연소의 양상을 띠게 된다. 액적간의 거리는 중요한 요소로서 멀리 떨어져 있는 경우부터 액적간의 거리가 가까워지면 착화지연 시간이 줄여들어 착화가 빨리 일어나는 것으로 관찰되었다. 또한 착화 후에는 최대온도 영역이 일열의 중심선으로부터 멀어지는 것으로 나타났는데 이것은 중심부근의 산소가 먼저 소모되고 외부로부터의 산소공급도 화염에 의해 차단되어 나타나는 현상이다. 이번 연구로 미세적인 착화현상에 대한 이해를 높이게 되었고 추후 복잡한 배열에 대한 연구도 가능할 것이다.

기상수치예보모델의 강수물리과정은 강수 발생과 연관된 입자의 낙하속도, 부착 및 자동전환, 입자크기분포 등의 과정을 다룬다. 하지만 수치예보모델의 미세물리과정과 모수에는 상당한 불확실성이 내포되어 있다. 수치예보모델의 불확실성을 줄이기 위하여 일반적으로 모수 추정을 사용한다. 이 연구에서는 모수 추정을 위한 최적화 알고리즘으로 마이크로 유전알고리즘과 하모니탐색 알고리즘을 사용하고 우리나라에서 발생한 강수사례에 대해 통합모델의 강수물리과정에서 사용하는 모수를 최적화하였다. 두 알고리즘의 서로 다른 특성으로 인해 최적화 과정 중의 차이가 보였다. 마이크로 유전알고리즘은 440회 수행 후 약 1.033의 적합도로 수렴하였고 하모니탐색 알고리즘은 60번 수행 후 약 1.031의 적합도로 수렴하였다. 이를 통해 하모니탐색 알고리즘이 마이크로 유전알고리즘보다 더 빨리 최적의 모수를 탐색하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 계산비용이 방대한 기상수치예보모델의 최적화 문제에서 빠른 시간 내에 최적의 모수를 탐색해야 한다면 하모니 탐색 알고리즘이 더 적합하다는 것을 확인하였다.
