  • The measurement of the compressional rheological parameters for an aggregated particulate suspension is described. The parameters include the compressive yield stress and hindered settling function, describing the extent and rate of dewatering respectively. The variation of these parameters with shear rate and time of shear is also considered in the light of their sensitivity to low shear rates, with particular reference to the case of flocculated particulate suspensions. The latter is seen to be important in the future development of a comprehensive understanding of compressive rheology of aggregated particulate suspensions in industrial applications such as thickening, filtration and centrifugation.

  • Electrokinetic technology was applied to remediate Cu, Pb and As-contaminated paddy soil. Removal of metal is highly dependent on the processing fluid during electrokinetic treatment. Tap water, NaOH, $HNO_3$, $Na_2EDTA$, and citric acid were evaluated as the processing fluids to enhance metal removal. Cu and Pb were transported toward cathode, however, it did not removed from soil section, while 56.6% of As was removed at a acidic condition. The strong acidic condition with nitric acid as a processing fluid enhanced the desoprtion of As from soil surface. However, longer operation time is needed to get the higher removal of Cu and Pb, and the acidification of soil after electrokinetic treatment should be solved.

  • The oil-based magnetic fluids were prepared with synthesized ultrafine magnette by allowing surfactactants such as sodium oleate and aliquat 336 to adsorb on the surface of magnetite particles. The dispersion ratio of oil-based magnetic fluids was higher than 90% when the amount of sodium oleate and aliqua 336 were more than 2.63$\times$10-2 mol and 6.56$\times$10-3 mol for 20g of magnetite respectively. The dispersion ratio of oil-based magnetic fluids with the amount of secondary surfactant addition was higher than 90% when oil-based magnetic fluids were prepared with aliquat 336 of cationic type. However oil-based magnetic fluids prepared with surfactants of anionic and nonionic type showed lower dispersion than whose with cationic surfac-tants.

  • The silicone fluids have been generally used as processing agent in silicone rubber(SIR) compounding. The addition of hydroxy silicone (HS) fluids to SIR for insulator housing material is required to meet the good electrical performance and the good processability. In this study, SIR with HS fluids was evaluated to investigate how the kinds of them affect insulation properties. The contact angle of the virgin sample of 40-HS SIR was low and its recovery rate was also slow. The recovery rate of 50-HS SIR was the highest being decreased with the viscosity increase of HS fluids. The tracking resistances and the corona aging resistance of 70-HS SIR and 1,040-HS SIR were excellent Tracking resistance depended largely on heat resistance of silicone fluids. But arc resistance didn't depend merely on the kind of silicone fluids.

  • This paper discusses several low-temperature heat-tranfer fluids, including water-based inorganic salt, organic salt, alcohol/glycol mixtures, silicones, and halogenated hydrocarbons in order to choose the best heat-transfer fluid for the newly designed direct contact refrigeration system. So, it contains a survey on commercial products such as propylene glycol and potassium formate as newly used in super market and food processing refrigeration. The stability of commercial fluids at the working temperature of $-20^{\circ}C$ was monitored as a function of time up to two months. And organic and inorganic compositions of candidate fluids were obtained by analytical instruments such as ES, XRF, AAS, ICP-AES, GC, and GC-MS. Analysis results indicate that commercial propylene glycol is very efficient and safe heat transfer fluids for the direct cooling system with liquid phase.

  • The purpose of the present study is to examine the flow characteristics of ER fluids between 2 port and 3 port rectangular tube brass electrodes. ER fluid is made silicon oil mixed with $2-3wt\%$ starch having hydrous particles. Flow visualization of the ER fluids were obtained by CCD camera measuring those of the clusters using an image processing technique. This research found the flow $rate(Q_L)$ with 0 kV /mm, 0.5kV/mm and 1.0kV/mm for $Q_L\;=\;0,\;0$ and $5.73cm^3/s$. When the strength of the electric field increased, the cluster of ER fluids are clearly strong along the rectangular tube and the flow rate(Q) decreased.

  • In the present study, a post-processing program is developed for 3D data visualization and analysis. Because the graphical user interface(GUI) of the program is based on Qt-library while all the graphic rendering is performed with OpenGL library, the program runs on not only MS Windows but also UNU and Linux systems without modifying source code. The structure of the program is designed according to the object-oriented programming(OOP) concept so that it has extensibility, reusability, and easiness compared to those by procedural programming. The program is organized as modules by classes, and these classes are made to function through inheritance and cooperation which is an important and valuable concept of object-oriented programming. The major functions realized so far which include mesh plot, contour plot, vector plot, streamline plot, and boundary plot are demonstrated and the relevant algorithms are described.

  • With recent advances in materials and products, materials processing experiences new challenges. More particles and polymers in material side and thinner and faster deformations in processing side. It happens in most emergying industries such as manufacturing of batteries, solar cells, multi-layer chips, displays, printed electronics, to list a few. In most cases, they are manufactured by coating or printing process, which is defined as a process in which gas is replaced by liquid on a substrate. In this sense, casting, inkjet printing, and roll-to-roll printing are all included. The printing process consists of three unit processes. As the materials used in the above mentioned applications typically contain a large amount of particles with polymers and solvents, they continuously change microstructures during preparation, flow, and even drying. However, little is known about the flow characteristics of such complex fluids and less is known about how to design and control the process. Therefore, for better control of the process and for better quality of the product, we need to understand the flow characteristics of these complex fluids under extremely fast flow environment.
