The development of the oxidation, wear and corrosion resistant materials that could be used in severe environmental conditions is needed. The elementary technologies for surface modification include ion implantation and/or thin film coating. Furthermore, in order to develop ion implantation technique to the specimens with three-dimensional shapes, plasma-based ion implantation (PBII) techniques were investigated. As a result, it was found that the ion implantation and/or thin film coating used in this study were/was effective for improving the properties of materials, which include implantations of various kinds of ions into TiAl alloy, TiN films formed on surface of base material and coatings in high-temperature steam. The techniques proposed in this study provide useful information for all of the material systems required to use at elevated temperature. For the practical applications, several results will be presented along with laboratory test results.

A series of experiments were conducted to determine the effects of standard (ST), long-term (LT), and expander (EX) conditioners on nutritional value of phase-three nursery and finishing swine diets. In Exp. 1, 180 pigs (average initial BW of 11.7 kg) were fed com-soybean meal based diets (1.3% lysine) during a 28 d growth assay. Gain/feed was improved (p<0.004) with pelleting and pellet durability index (PDI) increased with degree of conditioning (LT>ST). However, there was no advantage for LT vs ST conditioning in rate or efficiency of gain (p>0.5). In Exp. 2, 180 pigs (average initial BW of 10.4 kg) were fed con-soybean meal based diets (0.9% lysine) during a 28 d growth assay, Pelleted diets tended to support greater ADG (p<0.08) and gain/feed (p<0.002) with no marked advantage from EX vs ST conditioning. In Exp 3, a total of 70 barrows (average initial BW of 54 kg) was used in a growth assay to determine the effects of feeding a com-soybean meal based diet processed with a standard (ST) steam conditioner, a long-term (LT) steam conditioner, and an expander (EX) conditioner. The conditioned diets were fed as mash (M) or pellets (P) to give a $2{\times}3$ factorial plus a meal control. PDI increased with degree of conditioning (EX>LT>ST). There was a trend (p<0.07) for greater ADG in pigs fed diets that had been thermally conditioned. Also, there was a general advantage in gain/feed with pelleting (p<0.04), but this advantage was pronounced only with standard conditioning. Indeed, the greatest gain/feed was observed for pigs fed the expander treatments (p<0.03) and the expander mash was used as efficiently as the expander pellets. There was no difference in backfat thickness among pigs fed the treatments (p>0.3). but the more extreme the processing technique. the greater the incidence and severity of stomach lesions (p<0.04). These results suggest maximum rate and efficiency of growth with pelleting after standard steam conditioning or simply feeding an expanded mash.

This study was conducted to prepare superheated steam roasted (SSR) small yellow croaker Larimichthys polyactis sweet potato salad (SPS) and tomato mousse (TM), as senior-friendly seafoods (SFS) and to examine their quality characteristics. The hardness values of SSR, SPS and TM were 110.5×1.0³, 22.4×1.0³ and 14.5×1.0³ N/m², respectively. The nutritional properties of SSR, SPS and TM were 22.4, 6.7 and 10.2 g/100 g, respectively, for protein, 97.01, 3.40 and 17.00 ㎍/100 g, respectively, for vitamin A, 10.26, 2.79 ㎍/100 g and not detected (ND), respectively, for vitamin D, 60.68 mg/100 g, ND and 4.17 mg/100 g, respectively, for vitamin C, 0.18, 0.10 and 0.33 mg/100 g, respectively, for riboflavin 24.28, 10.91 and 13.77 mg/100 g, respectively, for niacin, 76.3, 53.0 and 48.5 mg/100 g, respectively, for calcium, 258.2, 231.3 and 145.2 mg/100 g, respectively, for potassium, and ND, 0.70 mg/100 g and ND, respectively, for dietary fiber. Escherichia coli was not detected in any of the products. These results suggested that the products should be classified as step 1 for SSR, step 2 for SPS and step 3 for TM based on the SFS standard of the Korean industrial standards. Moreover, the nutritional and physical properties of the foods were improved.

KIER has been developing a Ru-based preferential oxidation catalysts and a novel fuel processing system to provide hydrogen rich gas to residential PEMFCs system. The catalytic activity of Ru-based catalysts was investigated at different Ru loading amount and different support structure. The obtained result indicated that 2 wt% loaded Ru-based catalyst supported on ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ showed high activity in low temperature range and suppressed the methanation reaction. The developed prototype fuel processor showed thermal efficiency of 78% as a HHV basis with methane conversion of 92%. CO concentration below 10 ppm in the produced gas is achieved with separate preferential oxidation unit under the condition of $[O_2]/[CO]=2.0$. The partial load operation have been carried out to test the performance of fuel processor from 40% to 80% load, showing stable methane conversion and CO concentration below 10 ppm. The durability test for the daily start-stop and 8 h operation procedure is under investigation and shows no deterioration of its performance after 50 start-stop cycles. In addition to the system design and development.

The main parameter commonly used to evaluate spray distribution is spray angle. Spray angle is important because it influences the axial and radial distribution of the fuel. Spray angles were measured and compared for the two non-air assisted injectors such as 2hole-2stream 4hole-1stream injectors used for port fuel injection gasoline engines with n-heptane as a fuel by three different measuring techniques, i.e., digital image processing, shadowgraphy, and spray patternator, respectively. Fuel was injected with the injection pressures of 0.2-0.35 MPa into the room temperature and atmospheric pressure environment. In digital image processing approach, the selection of the transmittance level is critical to obtain the edge of spray and hence to measure the spray angle. From the measurement results by the shadowgraphy technique, it is dear that the spray angle is varied during the spray injection period. The measurement results from spray patternator show that the different spray angles exist in different region. Spray angle increases with the increase in the injection pressure. it is suggested that the spray angle and stream separated angle should be specified when spray is characterized for 2hole-2stream injector, because spray angle is much different though stream separated angle is same. It was also considerably affected by the measurement techniques introduced in this experimental work. However, the optimal axial distance for measuring the spray angle seems to be at least 60-80 mm from the injector tip for two non-air assisted injectors.

To do such, we obtain raw data from specimens of real pipeline of power plants, and get the envelope signal using Empirical Mode Decomposition from obtained ultrasonic 1-dimensional data. The reconstructed 3D crack images offer useful information about the location, shape and size of cracks, even if there is no special 2D image analysis technique. The developed analysis software is applied to specimens containing various cracks with known dimensions. The results of application showed that the developed software provided accurate and enhanced 2D images and reconstructed 3D image of cracks.

Volatile flavor components in powdered Katsuobushi were simultaneous trapped by steam distillation-extraction method, and these were fractionated into the neutral, the phenolic, the acidic and the basic fraction. Volatile flavor components in these fraction were analyzed by the high-resolution GC and GC-MS equipped with a fused silica capillary column. The whole steam volatile concentrate consisted of $48\%$ neutral fraction(NF), $35\%$ phenolic fraction(PF), $12\%$ acidic fraction(AF) and $5\%$ basic fraction(BF). Thirty components such as 8 hydrocarbons, 8 aldehydes, 6 furans, 5 alcohols and 3 ketones were identified from NF. And sixteen components such as phenol, guaiacol, dimethoxy phenol, eugenol in PF, twelve components such as propionic, butanoic, isopentanoic, n-hexanoic, heptanoic, octanoic acid in AF, ten components such as 2,6-dimethylpyrazine, 2-nethylpyridine, 2,4-dimethylthiaBole in BF were identified. NF and PF gave a much higher yield than others and were assumed to be indispensable for the reproduction of aroma of powdered Katsuobushi. It was also identified eight components of volatile carbonyl compounds such as ethanal, propanal, butanal, pentanal by 2,4-DNPH method.
