본 연구에서는 실린더형의 가스화기로 주입되는 아역청 미분탄을 가스화시켰을 때 가스화기내의 반응성 유동장을 해석하였다. 입자크기에 대한 영향을 고려하기 위해 미분탄 입자를 40$\mu\textrm{m}$, 60$\mu\textrm{m}$, 80$\mu\textrm{m}$ 및 100$\mu\textrm{m}$의 크기로 각각 나눈 경우와 이들 4종류의 입자를 균일하게 혼합한 경우에 대하여 전산모사하였다. 모사결과, 석탄 입자크기가 커질수록 재순환 영역이 커짐을 알 수 있었으며, 4종류의 입자가 균일하게 혼합된 석탄입자를 가스화시킨 경우 한 종류의 크기를 각각 사용했을 때와는 다른 형태의 재순환영역이 주입벽과 측면벽에 각각 양분되어 형성됨을 알 수 있었다. 입자 수밀도가 높은 자은 석탄입자가 가스화될 경우 다량의 산소와 산화반응이 일어나기 때문에 수밀도가 작은 커다란 석탄입자가 가스화될 경우보다 주입구 부분에서 더 높은 온도분포를 보였지만 가스화기의 하단부에서는 복사에 의한 열손실과 더불어 산소가 고갈되어 산소의 농도가 급격히 낮아짐으로 인해 석탄입자들과의 반응이 미비하게 일어나 상대적으로 큰 입자가 가스화된 경우보다 가스온도가 더 낮았다. 출구에서의 온도분포는 석탄입자의 크기가 40$\mu\textrm{m}$일 때 1,400-1,58$0^{\circ}C$, 60$\mu\textrm{m}$일 때 1.450-1,$700^{\circ}C$, 80$\mu\textrm{m}$일 때 1,000-1,74$0^{\circ}C$, 100$\mu\textrm{m}$일 때 1,630-1,79$0^{\circ}C$ 그리고 4종류가 균일하게 섞였을 때 1,500-1,68$0^{\circ}C$로 각각 예측되었다.

Plastic wastes, particularly polyethylene terephthalate (PET) generated from used bottled water constitute a worldwide environmental issue. Reusing the PET waste for geotechnical applications not only reduces environmental burdens of handling the waste, but also improves inherent engineering properties of soil. This paper investigated factors affecting shear strength improvement of PET-mixed residual soil. Four variables were considered: (i) plastic content; (ii) plastic slenderness ratio; (iii) plastic size; and (iv) soil particle size. A series of unconfined compression tests were performed to determine the optimum configurations for promoting the shear strength improvement. The results showed that the optimum slenderness ratio and PET content for shear strength improvement were 1:3 and 1.5%, respectively. Large PET pieces (i.e., $1.0cm^2$) were favorable for fine-grained residual soil, while small PET pieces (i.e., $0.5cm^2$) were favorable for coarse-grained residual soil. Higher shear strength improvement was obtained for PET-mixed coarse-grained residual soil (148%) than fine-grained residual soils (117%). The orientation of plastic pieces in soil and frictional resistance developed between soil particles and PET surface are two important factors affecting the shear strength performance of PET-mixed soil.

The milling and particulate characteristics of Al alloy-$Al_2O_3$ powder mixtures for a reaction-bonded $Al_2O_3$ (RBAO) process were studied. A commercially available prealloyed Al powder with Zn, Mg, Cu and Cr alloying elements (7475 series) was mixed with a calcined sinter-active $Al_2O_3$ powder and then milled in centrifugal milling equipment for ~48 hrs. The Al alloy-$Al_2O_3$ powder mixtures after milling were characterized and evaluated in various ways to reveal their particulate characteristics during milling. The milling efficiency of the Al alloy increased with a longer milling time. Comminution of the Al alloy particles started with its elongation, showing a high aspect ratio. With a longer milling time, the elongated Al alloy particle changed in terms of its shape and size, becoming equiaxially fine particles. Regardless of the milling efficiency of the Al alloy particles, all of the Al alloy particles repeatedly experienced strong plastic deformation during milling, giving rise to higher density of surface defects, such as microcracks, and leading to higher residual microstress within the Al alloy particles. The chemical reactions, oxidation behavior and hydration behavior of the Al alloy particles and the hydrolysis characteristics of their reaction with the environment were also observed during the milling process and during the subsequent powder handling steps.

This study was done to resolve the air reduction in mortar when mixed with ERCO. Effects of the water repellent ALC powder due to its particle size and substitution ratio on the cement mortar with ERCO was analyzed. Results showed more water repellent ALC powder ensured more air but did not affect the size of particles. It was determined the compression was caused by more air and water added to achieve the flow. Therefore, substituting with water repellent ALC powder may compensate for the air reduction in mortar with ERCO. Other measures and approaches are needed in order to resolve the reduced strength.

The incineration tests of mixed industrial wastes using the stoker type incinerator are carried out to investigate the partitioning characteristics of heavy metals during incineration. The results obtained from this study are as follow. The partitioning characteristics of heavy metals throughout this incinerator are found that, at given condition of $700^{\circ}C$, the elements with the relatively high boiling point such as Cr, Cu and Pb are partitioned into a bottom ash, a fry ash captured tv cyclone, and a flue gas stream, 67~88%, 2~19% and 6~16% of initial amount entering the incinerator, respectively, but the Cd and Hg of 75~81% is vaporized into the flue gas. It appears that the partitioning characteristics according to the particle size of ash is different between the bottom ash and the fly ash. For bottom ash, the fraction of partitioning into 75${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ oversized particles is reatively high. For fly ash, the characteristics of distributions with the particle size can not be clearly shown.

The settling rate of the dredged soil may vary with mineral composition, grain size distribution, initial con contration and salt concentration of suspension of the site. A series of settling column test was performed to investigate the settling rate characteristics of solid suspension material from dredging and reclamation. The settling rate of soil mixed with various size of particles depended on clay fraction which showed a inherent flux. A model was developed to predict the particle flux of mixed soil from the clay flux and its applicability was verified.

Microencapsulated pcm (MPCM) particles are mixed with distilled water and utilized to evaluate its characteristics and performance as a thermal storage medium transporting heat. For the present study, tetradecane ($C_14$$H_30$, $T_m$=5.5$^{\circ}C$) is capsulated in the core, coated with the melamine for their surface. The size of particles is well-controlled under 10$\mu$m in the process of in-situ polymerization with melamine-formaldehyde resin. For the experiment, the concentractions of slurries are prepared for 20 wt%, 30 wt%, and 40 wt%. The results are compared with those of water and 100% tetradecane oil. The pure water and tetradecane start solidifying within 20 minutes after introducing cooling water into the thermal storage tank whose flow rates are varied by 125 cc/min, 250 cc/min, and 500 cc/min. However, MPCM slurries are required relatively longer period of time for their phase change than pure phase change materials. That is, the entrained MPCM particles restrict their heat transfer in terms of natural convection and conduction to them.

Recently, there have been reports of severe symptoms of wear in bearings due to foreign substances mixed in lubricants. Therefore, studying the effects of foreign substances (such as combustion products and metallic debris) on the wear characteristics of journal bearings and proposing appropriate management standards for lubricant cleanliness have become necessary. Studies on the effect of particle size and concentration of foreign substances on surface damage have actively progressed in the recent times. These studies indicate the possibility of foreign substances causing direct wear of bearing surfaces. However, experiments conducted until now involve only basic tests such as the Pin-on-Disk test instead of those involving real bearing systems. This study experimentally examines the damage to the surface of a journal bearing due to foreign substances (combustion products and alumina) mixed with the lubricant, as well as the effect of the type and size of particles on its wear characteristics. The study uses an experimental journal bearing similar to a real bearing system for conducting the lubrication test. Hydrodynamic Lubrication (HL) numerical analysis, experiment results, and film parameters are used for calculating the operating conditions required for achieving the desired film thickness, and the results of the analysis are modified for considering the surface roughness. The run-time of the experiment is 10 min including the stabilization process. The experiment results show that alumina particles larger than the minimum film thickness cause significant surface damage.
