A simplified TAC method was developed for the selection of design temperature and absolute humidity for peak cooling and heating load calculation with ETD method. And the design data of the 11 major cities in Korea were obtained. Based on the simplified TAC method, the design data for summer and autumn cooling season were selected by the TAC 5.0% of July through August and TAC 5.0% of October, respectively. But the design data for winter heating season were selected by the conventional TAC 2.5% of the full winter season.

The structural development of triacetyl cellulose (TAC) was studied as a function of solution casting processing parameters such as dope concentration, evaporation temperature, annealing temperature and the addition of plasticizer. The crystalline structure was developed by the solution casting and the level of crystallinity was increased with increasing dope concentration and evaporation temperature. The crystalline structure could be enhanced by the annealing process after formation of TAC film. Introducing plasticizer resulted in decreasing melting temperature and crytallinity of TAC film due to the increase of chain mobility. It was also found that thermal stability of TAC was improved due to the rigid structure of applied plasticizer.

According to the Korea industrial standard of air conditioning systems (KS C 9306), cooling and heating loads for buildings can be calculated by using maximum and minimum temperature in BIN data. Cooling and heating loads can be determined by building set temperature and ambient temperature. Cooling and heating system capacity of buildings can be normally designed according to determined heating and cooling loads. Cooling and heating system capacity can be reduced by updated BIN data, applying TAC (Technical Advisory Committee) values. In this study, updated BIN data have been analyzed using ambient temperature of 19 areas in Korea for the last 10 years (2005~2014) provided by KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration). Building cooling and heating loads have been calculated following TAC based BIN data. As a result, designed system capacity decreased depending on applying TAC. Those were reduced as 7.1% ($100m^2$ building), 8.7% ($1,000m^2$ building) in cooling capacity, 11.7% in heating capacity when TAC 2.5% applied. And also, it is expected system initial and operating cost by decreasing system capacity.

Polyamide 66 (PA66) nanofibers with Triallyl cyanurate (TAC) were obtained by electrospinning of formic acid and chloroform solution. Electron beam irradiation of PA66 nanofiber with and without TAC was carried out over a range of absorbed doses (20~100 kGy) in nitrogen. The characterization of the irradiated PA66 nanofibers and PA66 nanofibers with TAC was done by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and universal testing machine (UTM). The results of the SEM image analysis confirmed that the morphology of PA66 nanofibers was not altered by electron beam. The amount of TAC in PA66 nanofiber with TAC was identified by $^1H-NMR$ analysis. The degradation temperature of PA66 nanofibers with TAC at an absorbed dose of 20~100 kGy was higher than the irradiated PA66 nanofiber without TAC. On the other hand, the decreasing rate of modulus of irradiated PA66 nanofibers with TAC was less than PA66 nanofibers.

Nylon 12 elastomer was slightly crosslinked in molten state by the addition of small amount of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) as a crosslink agent and triallycyanuate (TAC) as a co-agent during melt compounding at $160^{\circ}C$ in an internal mixer. The effect of the peroxide crosslinking on mechanical, dynamic mechanical and rheological properties of the nylon 12 elastomer was investigated by means of tensile testing, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and small amplitude oscillating rheometer, respectively. With modification, there is an improvement in tensile modulus and Young's modulus with decease in elongation at break. DMA results for peroxide modified nylon 12 elastomers demonstrated that the glass transiaiton temperature of PTMG segment shifted to higher temperature and the storage modulus remained constant above the melting temperature of nylon 12 segments. Melt rheological studies revealed that the peroxide modified nylon 12 elastomer exhibited a more solid like behavior and stronger shear thinning behavior compared to neat nylon 12 elastomer, which was more prominent at higher TAC content in the polymer matrix. The peroxide modified nylon 12 elastomer exhibited good elastic recoverability and improved mechanical properties without sacrificing melt processibilty, and especially the service temperature range increased as compared to neat nylon 12 elastomer.

Standard weather data available to greenhouse environmental design are limited in most regions of the country. So, instead of using standard weather data, in order to find the method to build design weather data for greenhouse heating and cooling, design outdoor weather conditions were analyzed and compared by TAC method and frequency analysis using climatological normal and thirty years from 1981 to 2010 hourly weather data provided by KMA and standard weather data provided by KSES. Average TAC values of outdoor temperature, relative humidity and insolation using thirty years hourly weather data showed a good agreement with them using standard weather data. Therefore, in regions which are not available standard weather data, we suggest that design outdoor weather conditions should be analyzed using thirty years hourly weather data. Average of TAC values derived from every year hourly weather data during the whole period can be established as environmental design standards, and also minimum and maximum of them can be used as reference data.

Recently, studies on Mild combustion have grown in many combustion application fields in the international combustion society. Compared with international activities in this field, domestic study in Korea has not been activated yet. This brief review aims to explain some essences of fundamental physics of Mild combustion and to introduce some recent application techniques of them. Fundamental physics of Mild combustion has been usually broken down into three aspects [1]; physical, thermodynamic, and chemical aspects. A major portion of Mild combustion physics is related to HiTAC (High Temperature Air Combustion) or HiCOT (High Temperature Combustion Technology). Although definition of Mild combustion is easily accepted among combustion engineers, combustion control in Mild combustion may be difficult without understanding essential physics of it. To encourage the research in this field, some representative cases will be introduced, and related essential techniques will be explained.

Mandarin juice was processed using a continuous high pressure $CO_2$ system. Response surface methodology was used to investigate the effects of the processing parameters such as temperature, pressure, residence time, and %(w/w) ratio of $CO_2$ to juice on total aerobic count (TAC), pectinesterase (PE) activity, cloud level, $^{\circ}Brix$, pH, and titratable acidity (TA) of the juices. Maximum log reduction (3.47) of TAC was observed at $35^{\circ}C$, 41.1 MPa, 9 min residence time, and 7% $CO_2$. PE was inactivated by 7-51%. The cloud was not only retained but was also enhanced by 38%. Lightness and yellowness increased, and redness decreased. The processing temperature and % $CO_2$/juice ratio significantly affected high pressure $CO_2$ processing of the juice in terms of pasteurization, PE inactivation, cloud increase, and color change. The $^{\circ}Brix$, pH, and TA before and after treatment remained unchanged.

Purpose: The aim of this work was to study the change in antioxidant activity depending on storage temperature and storage period in romaine and cherry. Method: The plant material was stored at $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$, $3.5{\pm}2.8^{\circ}C$, and $4.7{\pm}1.4^{\circ}C$. Cherry and romaine were stored for a period of 9 days and 7 days, respectively. The cherry was taken from each group of samples at regular intervals of days and the romaine was taken from each group of samples at regular intervals of 2days. Vitamin C, total polyphenol, and total flavonoid stability and antioxidant capacity including DPPH, total antioxidant capacity (TAC) were measured. Results: For cherry, the levels of TAC and flavonoid were higher at the $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ condition than other conditions (p < 0.05). The polyphenol and vitamin C levels were not significantly different among storage conditions. In the case of romaine, the level of TAC was highly preserved until 7 days at the $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ condition. Vitamin C level was significantly lower at the $3.5{\pm}2.8^{\circ}C$ condition (p < 0.05). DPPH activity was highest at the $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ condition (p < 0.05). DPPH activity was shown in order of $0.7{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C>4.7{\pm}1.4^{\circ}C>3.5{\pm}2.8^{\circ}C$. Conclusion: The results indicated that the narrow differences and fluctuation in temperature were associated with antioxidant capacity and it might enhance the nutritional shelf life of vegetables and fruits.

Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was crosslinked in the melt state to enhance wear resistance, Dicumyl peroxide (DCP) and triallyl cyanurate (TAC) was used as a crosslinking agent and a promoter, respectively. With increasing amount of DCP and TAC used, gel content of crosslinked UHMWPE (XUMPE) increased, while the melting temperature, crystallizaiton temperature, crystallinity, and tensile properties decreased. The results of pin-on-disk wear test and ball-on-disk test with small applied load showed reduced wear volumes of XUMPE from that of the unmodified UHMWPE. As the wear mechanism effected in the experimental condition of this study was thought to be deformation rather than adhesion or fatigue, a new parameter, the ratio of maximum contact stress to yield stress, was proposed to correlate well with observed wear resistance. In ball-on-disk wear test with larger applied load, XUMPE showed higher wear volumes than that of the unmodified UHMWPE which were accompanied with increased friction coefficients and surface roughness of the wear tracks. When contact stress was well above yield stress, the failure of XUMPE, as well as deformation, was thought to be much accelerated.
