Each river confluence has the inherent hydraulic and mixing characteristics coming from its bathymetry and topography. It is necessary to make the measurement covering the spatial extent of studying area in order to catch these 2-dimensional intrinsic characteristics. This study focuses to investigate the hydraulic and mixing characteristics at the confluence of Nakdong and Geumho River, from field measurement of flow, water quality, and suspended particle distribution with ADCP (Riversurveyor M9), multi-parameter water quality sonde (YSI6600V2), and submersible system for in-situ observations of particle size distribution and volume concentration (LISST : Laser In-Situ Scattering & Transmissometry), respectively. From the results, it can be found that the field measurement of suspended particle and water quality distribution can be the useful approach to catch the hydraulic and mixing characteristics at a river confluence.

The pressure and temperature characteristics of mixed refrigerant gases in bulb for thermostatic expansion valve were studied using R22 refrigerant and $N_2$ gases. The characteristics of mixed refrigerant gases were investigated according to pressure variation and the variation of composition ratio of R22 refrigerant and $N_2$ gases in the temperature range of -$15^{\circ}C$~$15^{\circ}C$. The Maximum operating pressure(MOP) of mixed refrigerant gases were showed a tendency to decrease with decreasing the mixing ratio of $N_2$ gas. The characteristics in the case of the mixing ratio of 90:1 for R22 refrigerant and $N_2$ gases were the same result as Reference refrigerant. In addition, the characteristics of the mixed refrigerant gases in the mixing ratio of 90:1 for R22 refrigerant and $N_2$ gases were showed almost linear in the measurement range of pressure-temperature, and the physical properties also were showed similar results with Reference refrigerant. It was able to confirm that a MOP on the thermostatic expansion valve for sensing bulb can be maintained by adjusting the mixing ratio of R22 refrigerant and $N_2$ gases.

In this study, a Yanggaeng with added loquat fruits puree was developed and studied on quality characteristics. The mixed ratio were 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100% of loquat fruits puree. Loquat fruits puree have 83.49% of water, 0.36% of crude protein, 0.04% of crude fat, 0.46% of crude ash, $14.3^{\circ}Brix$ of sweetness, 75.10(mg/kg) of polyphenol and 4.01 of pH. The water contents of Yanggaeng were 41.78~53.37%, and showed significant increase (p<0.001). The sugar contents of Yanggaeng were increased from $28.7^{\circ}Brix$ at control group to $36.0^{\circ}Brix$ at 100% mixing group (p<0.001), while pH were decreased from 6.4 at control group to 4.26 to 6.4 at 100% mixing group. In color, the brightness (L-value) gradually decreased from 72.69 at control group to 43.64 at 100% mixing group (p<0.001), the redness (a-value) of control group was the lowest by -1.72 while 100% mixing group was the highest by 8.64 (p<0.001). The yellowness (b-value) of control group was 15.91 while that of 100% mixing group was 21.98 (p<0.001). The DPPH radical scavenging activity of control group was the lowest by 9.24% while that of the group 100% mixing was the highest by 46.17%. Total polyphenol was not detected from control group and 20% mixing groups, and 100% mixing group was The highest by 16.69 mg/100 g (p<0.001). Preference test showed the groups with mixing loquat fruits puree 60% or more were preferred (p<0.001) in color. There were no significant difference from sweet taste but sour taste of 100% mixing group was The highest by 4.85 (p<0.01). For texture and overall preference the most preferred groups were the groups of mixing of 60% and 80% of loquat fruits puree.

Mixing efficiency of the unlike Impinging split triplet injector(FOOF type) were measured to investigate the effect of the momentum ratio variation. $H_2$O/kerosene were used as a propellant simulant. The maximum mixing efficiency occured at the momentum ratio 1.5 (total mixture ratio 1.89). Calculated mixing efficiency of real propellant LOX/Kerosene showed similar trend but maximum efficiency of characteristic velocity occurs at the momentum ratio 2.0(total mixture ratio 2.17). Although there exist a little discrepancy between calculated mixing efficiency based on simulant cold test and hot fire test results, this calculated mixing efficiency can be used to predict hot fire mixing efficiency.

The combined wastewater of municipal landfill leachate and municipal sewage was treated using several sets of bench-scale aerated circulating system including porous media. Investigated items in this experiment were the dominant protozoa and metazoa in this system, the variation of microfauna relationship between operating condition and dominant genera. Also considered the factors determining dominant genera and their role. The outcome of this research is as follows; 1. Aspidisca, Vorticella, Truhellophyllum, Lecane, Philodina, Cyclops were mainly appeared prior to combinding leachate, while Trachelocerca, Bodo, Glaucoma were the dominant genera after combinding leachate. 2. As to metazoa, Nematode and Philodina were not influenced by 5oA leachate mixing ratio, meanwhile Crustacea has high sensitivity for increased leachate mixing ratio and it was not appeared in 5% leachate mixing ratio. 3. The appropriate treatability could'nt be expected at the above 10% leachate mixing ratio. Especially, in the condition of 20% leachate mixing ratio, all of the microfauna were affected damage seriously on their existence. Meanwhile hydraulic retention time, substrate loading rate and slut자e production rate didn't give notable influence on increasing the number of microfauna. 4. As to protozoa, saprozoic and holozoic species were appeared commonly and polysaprobic species were dominent. 5. Filamentous organsms were nearly not affected by leachate mixing. It seems that they could live without any trouble at the 10% leachate mixing ratio, if the substrate is sufficient. 6. Diversity of microfauna had a reducing trernd as the sewage was mixed with leachate.

Dispersion of coagulant should be completed in a fraction of a second before the metal hydroxide precipitate has form. For the reason so-called pump diffusion flash mixing (PDFM) have been proposed, and PDFM is one of reasonable methods to quickly disperse the hydrolyzing metal salts. In this study, therefore, we attempt to understand the difference of removal characteristics of natural organic matter (NOM) between pump diffusion flash mixing (PDFM) and conventional rapid mixing (CRM) for coagulation in a water treatment system, and to enhance the removal of NOM through the improved mixing process. DOC and turbidity removal by PDFM higher than those by CRM, while SUVA value of water treated by PDFM was high as compared with that by CRM. Hydrophilic NOM was more effectively removed by PDFM than CRM, since charge neutralization effect increased by quick dispersion of coagulant. The DBP formation potentials due to NOM was effectively reduced by the improved mixing (i.e., PDFM) for coagulation and could be controlled through decrease in concentration of precursor rather than reduction of activity with disinfectant.

In this study, three different types of mechanical ventilation systems are compared based on their ventilation characteristics: tracer gas concentration decay characteristics, and ventilation effectiveness by calculating actual ventilation air flow rate. The experiments are performed by using a step-down method for measuring tracer gas. $CO_{2}$ gas, concentration in the model chamber. Application of a mixing factor, k, was used and measured values ranged from 0.68 to 0.77. The Type 2 ventilation system was found to have the highest ventilation effectiveness rather than the Types 1 and 3.

In this paper, the ventilation performance of suspended particulates in indoor side was investigated by step-down method. Experiments were performed in function of mechanical ventilation types and locations of supply and extract air. The type 2 ventilation system shows the highest removal characteristics rather than other 2 types. It means that the displacement ventilation has also good decay rates of concentration compared to mixing ventilation.

Effects of alum dosage on the particle growth were investigated by monitoring particle counts in a rapid mixing process. Kaolin was used for turbid water sample and several other chemicals were added to adjust pH and ionic strength. The range of velocity gradient and mixing time applied for rapid mixing were $200{\sim}300sec^{-1}$ and 30~180 sec, respectively. Particle distribution in the synthetic water sample was close to the natural water where their turbidity was same. The number of particles in the range of $10.0{\sim}12.0{\mu}m$ increased rapidly with rapid mixing time at alum dose of 20mg/L, however, the number of $8.0{\sim}9.0{\mu}m$ particles increased at alum dose of 50mg/L. The number of $14.0{\sim}25.0{\mu}m$ particles at alum dose of 20mg/L was 10 times higher than them at alum dose of 50mg/L. Dominant particle growth was monitored at the lower alum dose than the optimum dose from a jar test at an extended rapid mixing time(about 120 sec). The number of $8.0{\sim}14.0{\mu}m$ particles was lower both at a higher alum doses and higher G values. At G value of $200sec^{-1}$ and at alum dose of 10-20mg/L, residual turbidity was lower as the mixing time increased. But at alum dose above 40mg/L and at same G value, lower residual turbidity occurred in a short rapid mixing time. Low residual turbidity at G value of $300sec^{-1}$ occurred both at lower alum doses and at shorter mixing time comparing to the results at G value of $200sec^{-1}$.
