In this study, the potential possibility of biodiesel fuel was investigated as an alternative fuel for a naturally aspirated indirect injection diesel engine. The smoke emission of biodiesel fuel was reduced remarkably in comparison with diesel fuel, that is, it was reduced approximately 36% at 2000rpm, full load condition. And, power, torque and brake specific energy consumption showed no significant differences. However, NOx emission of biodiesel fuel was increased compared with commercial diesel fuel. Also, the effects of exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) to reduce the NOx emission has been investigated. It was found that simultaneous reduction of smoke and NOx was achieved with biodiesel fuel(20vol-%) and cooled EGR method$(10{\sim}15%)$.

본 연구는 최근 우리나라 고층아파트에서 많은 문제가 되고 있는 승강장 부속실의 급기가압 시스템에 있어서 댐퍼 적정차압의 기준 압력에 대한 문제를 FDS 화재모델링을 이용하여 현상학적으로 살펴보았다. 화재 초기 누설틈새만 있는 밀폐된 화재실의 온도와 압력은 연소에너지와 고온 연소가스의 발생으로 온도와 압력이 크게 상승하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 자동차압조절 급기댐퍼의 기준압을 옥내 대기압으로 설정 시에는 화재 시 실제 차압의 감소와 방연풍속 부족으로 상황에 따라 피난안전 공간인 부속실로의 연기 유입이 발생할 우려가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The proliferation, migration, cytokine release, and contraction of airway smooth muscle cells are key events in the airway remodeling process that occur in lung disease such as asthma, chronic obstruction pulmonary disease, and cancer. These events can be modulated by a number of factors, including cigarette smoke extract (CSE). CSE-induced alterations in the viability, migration, and contractile abilities of normal human airway cells remain unclear. This study investigated the effect of CSE on cell viability, migration, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$ secretion, and contraction in normal human bronchial smooth muscle cells (HBSMCs). Treatment of HBSMCs with 10% CSE induced cell death, and the death was accompanied by the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). CSE-induced cell death was reduced by N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC), an ROS scavenger. In addition, CSE reduced the migration ability of HBSMCs by 75%. The combination of NAC with CSE blocked the CSE-induced reduction of cell migration. However, CSE had no effect on TNF-${\alpha}$ secretion and NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. CSE induced an increase in intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration in 64% of HBSMCs. CSE reduced the contractile ability of HBSMCs, and the ability was enhanced by NAC treatment. These results demonstrate that CSE treatment induces cell death and reduces migration and contraction by increasing ROS generation in normal HBSMCs. These results suggest that CSE may induce airway change through cell death and reduction in migration and contraction of normal HBSMCs.

Car inspection systems are regularly carried out by the state to ensure the safety and emission status of cars, thereby improving the safety and quality of life by reducing fine dust and greenhouse gases that are the main culprits of vehicle defects and air pollution. These automobile inspections are largely divided into either regular or comprehensive inspections. This study analyzed the smoke measuring probes used in the lug - down 3 mode. In the previously issued paper "Improvement of Soot Probe Efficiency for Automotive Emission Measurement," an improved smoke measurement probe(B) improved on the problems that arise from the current smoke measurement probe (A). In this study, a technique that can improve the probe's inhalation efficiency over the improved (B) probes was applied to probes (C). Probe (C) involves a structure designed close to the center of the circumference of the exhaust pipe, and the suction efficiency was improved by adding a variable center unit.

담배 주류연 중 카보닐 화합물의 감소를 위한 필터 물질로 비드 형상의 양이온 및 음이온교환체를 glycidylmethacrylate(GMA)와 d9ivinylbenzene(DVB)의 현탁중합에 의해 중합체를 합성한 후 설폰화 반응 및 아민화 반응에 의해 합성하였다. 합성한 이온교환체의 구조는 FT-IR/ATR을 이용하여 확인하였으며 SEM을 이용하여 주류연 흡착에 따른 이온교환체의 표면을 관찰하였다. 또한 이온교환용량, 관능화율 및 담배 주류연 중 카보닐 화합물의 흡착 특성을 확인하였다. 관능화율과 이온교환용량은 공단량체 중 DVB의 함량이 5 wt%에서 최대를 나타내었다. 이온교환체에 의한 담배 주류연 중 카보닐 흡착량은 카보닐기 내의 전자 편재화에 의한 음이온교환반응이 더 용이하여 음이온교환체에서 더 높게 나타났으며, 수분 존재 시 더 많은 흡착량을 나타내었다. 또한 짧은 접촉 시간에서도 높은 흡착량을 가지고 있어 궐련 필터의 적용 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Cars are one of the main causes of air pollution in large cities, and 34.6% of domestic air pollution emissions come from mobile sources, of which cars account for 69.6%. In particular, the importance of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM), which are major pollutants in diesel vehicles, is increasing due to their high contribution to emissions. Therefore, in this study, the problem of natural regeneration caused by low exhaust gas temperature during low speed and low load operation was solved by applying a complex regeneration DPF that is not affected by temperature conditions to large diesel vehicles with higher driving time and engine displacement than small and medium-sized vehicles. And the feasibility of application to large diesel vehicles was reviewed by measuring the emission reduction efficiency. As a result of the reduction efficiency test on the actual vehicle durability product, PM showed a reduction efficiency of 84% to 86%, and the reduction efficiency of gaseous substances showed a high reduction efficiency of over 90%. The actual vehicle applicability test was completed with three driving patterns: village bus vehicle, police car, and road-going construction equipment vehicle, and no device problems occurred until the end of the test. Both load and no-load smoke measurement results showed a smoke reduction efficiency of over 96%.

The purpose of this study is to investigate experimentally the effect of low purity methanol (LPM) on performance and smoke emission characteristics by using a four-cycle, four-cylinder, water-cooled, direct injection diesel engine with EGR system. The experiments are performed by the change of engine load in the engine load ranges of 25 to 100% with an interval of 25% under the constant engine speed of 2000 rpm. The LPM in the fuel blends contained 24.88% water by volume. The blended fuel ratios of diesel oil to LPM are maintained at 100/0, 95/5, 90/10 and 85/15% on the volume basis. In this paper, EGR rates are varied in three conditions of 0, 12.8 and 16.5%. The result shows that the brake power of a blended fuel with 15% LPM is reduced more 11.1% than that of the neat diesel oil at the full load with the EGR rate of 16.5%. At this condition, also, the brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) is increased by 3.2%, the exhaust gas temperature is decreased by 10.7%, the smoke opacity is decreased by 18.7% and the brake thermal efficiency is increased by 7.3%. The sharp reduction of smoke opacity for a blended fuel with the LPM content of 15% at the full load without EGR system is observed by 68.4% compared with that of the neat diesel oil due to the high oxygen content of LPM.

Cigarette smoking has been known to have a few beneficial effects on some neuronal diseases such as Alzheimer's disease(AD), Parkinson's disease(PD) and prion disease by scrapie agent shows many similar properties with AD. In this respect, we investigated what biological effects are exerted by cigarette smoke exposure(CSE) in the brain of mouse infected by 87V scrapie. The scrapie agent was inoculated through stereotaxic microinjection of the homogenates of the scrapie agent infected brain into the intracerebral system in the 1M mice. The inoculation into mice typically exhibits neurochemical, physiological and histopathological characteristics of prion disease: loss of neurotransmitters and induction of astrocytosis and vacuolation in brain as well as reduction of spatial movement and loss of body weight. CSE led to alleviated the loss of body weight and also improved spatial movement of the infected mice. Most interestingly, CSE attenuated astrocytosis and vacuolation caused by scrapie infection in the brain. In addition, decreased levels of dopamine in striatal and hypothalamic regions as well as serotonin level in hippocampus caused by scrapie infection were also attenuated by exposure to cigarette smoke. These findings suggest that cigarette smoke, by its inhibition of astrocytosis and vacuolation followed by its restoration of levels of some neurotransmitters, may partly contribute to suppression in the progress of neurodegeneration caused by scrapie infection.

로켓의 노즐 외부에서 형성되는 플룸으로 인하여 발사 위치나 비행궤적이 노출 될 수 있는데, 본 논문에서는 플룸을 감소시킬 수 있는 고체 추진제의 후연소 반응 억제제에 대하여 연구 결과를 제시하였다. 후연소 방지제가 무연계 고체추진제의 내탄도 성능과 일차 연기에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 후연소 반응 방지제로 $K_2SO_4$를 1.1% 적용하여 후연소 반응이 크게 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 $K_2SO_4$의 함량이 증가하면 압력지수가 미세하게 증가하며, 1차 연기의 발생량도 증가하므로 1.1% 이하를 사용해야 AGARD 기준으로 1차 연기 A등급에 부합되는 것으로 분석되었다.
