$Al_2O_3-TiO_2$ composite oxide adsorbents which could be applied in high-temperature water were prepared by hydrolysis of aluminum and titanium alkoxide. The prepared adsorbents were calcined at $600{\sim}1400^{\circ}C$ and in order to investigate the various properties - the transition of crystals, thermal properties, and specific surface area, X-ray diffractometry, thermal analysis, FT-IR, SEM and BET method were employed. And the $Co^{2+}$ adsorption characteristics of these adsorbents in high-temperature water were investigated by batch adsorption experiment in a stirred autoclave. Since the adsorption of $Co^{2+}$ on the $Al_2O_3-TiO_2$ adsorbents was irreversible endothermic in the temperature range of $150{\sim}250^{\circ}C$, the standard enthalpy changes of 26, 43, and 80 mol% of $TiO_2$ on $Al_2O_3$ were in the range of $16.5{\sim}26.0kJ{\cdot}mol^{-1}$. The adsorbent of 26 mol% of $TiO_2$ on $Al_2O_3$ which was calcined at $600^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours showed the adsorption amount of $0.1674meq{\cdot}g^{-1}$ in the high temperature water at $250^{\circ}C$.

Compatability of films made of chitosan, gelatin, and their blends prepared by aqueous solution casting was investigated using a thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA) and a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). TGA showed gelatin is more thermally stable than chitosan, and thermal stability of chitosan in blends was higher than that of pure chitosan due to interaction among functional groups of component polymers in blend. Glass transition temperature $(T_g)$ of blends was dependent on chitosan content of blends. Blend films exhibited good miscibility. Moisture and glycerol contents of blend strongly affected thermal properties of two component polymers.

The crystallized CuPc(copper phthalocyanine) film on a p-type <100> Si substrate is prepared at the substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ by thermal evaporation. X -ray diffraction analysis showed the CuPc film to have a-axis oriented structure. For the measurement of photovoltaic characteristics of the CuPc/Si film and the Si substrate, a transverse current-voltage (I-V) curve is observed. In the dark, the Au/Si junction is shown to be ohmic contact. However, under illumination, a photovoltaic effect is not observed. The I-V curve in the dark indicates that the CuPc film on Si may form an ohmic contact. Since the CuPc film is a p-type semiconductor, the CuPc/p-Si junction has no barrier at the interface. Under illumination, the CuPc/Si junction shows a large photocurrent comparing with that of the wafer. The result indicates that the CuPc layer plays an important role in the photocarrier generation under red illumination (600 nm). The CuPc/Si film shows the photo voltaic characteristics with a short-circuit photocurrent ($J_{sc}$) of $4.29\;mA/cm^{2}$ and an open-circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$) of 12 mA.

This study compared and analyzed the thermal characteristics based on the ratio of moisture content of infected and non-infected Bursaphelenchus Xylophilus by heat of combustion experiment. The experiment results are as follows. The analysisresult of the ratio of water content shows that 19.92% on average for infected Bursaphelenchus Xylophilus and 26.27% for non-infected which decreases water content as the size of conduction, convection, and radiant heat increases in case of fire. As the vaporization of the moisture content accelerates, the average moisture content is reached, and the result is contrary to the thermal characteristics of the wood that the moisture content is not ignited by a heat source when the moisture content is under 15%. The combustion heat analysis result showed that infected and non-infected Bursaphelenchus Xylophilus had no significant difference in combustion heat at about 3%. However, it shows that combustion heat is higher than other species. In conclusion, decreasing in moisture content based on the increasing conduction, convection, and radiant heat is one of the direct causes of ignition, and the lower the moisture content, the faster the fire spreads.

Li-SGICs as a anode of lithium ion battery were synthesized by high-pressure method as a function of the Li-contents. The characteristics of these prepared compounds were determined from the studies with X-ray diffraction method and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) analysis. From the results of X-ray diffraction, it was found that the lower stage intercalation compounds were formed with increase of Li-contents. The mixed stages in these compounds were also observed. In the case of the $Li_{30;wt%}$-SGIC, the compounds in the stage 1 structure were formed predominantly, but the structure of only pure stage 1, due to the structural defect of synthetic graphite, was not observed. The enthalpy and entropy changes of the compounds could be obtained from the differential scanning calorimetric analysis results. From the results, it was found that exothermic and endothermic reactions of Li-SGICs are related to thermal stability of lithium between artificial graphite layers.

This research studied a scaling analysis for the selection of proper heat generation at tube for 1/4-scale storage vaults. First of all, the temperature field and velocity distribution of an original scale storage vault were analyzed and then numerical analysis of a 1/4-scale storage vault was performed to compare each model. The proper heat generation for a 1/4-scale storage vault, at which the temperature and velocity field of a 1/4-scale storage vault showed the best agreement with that of the original storage vault, was evaluated with proposed dimensionless parameters. The behavior of temperature and velocity of fluid in the 1/4-scale case were most similar to those of the original scale, using a heat flux 1.3 times higher than that seen in the original scale, which was approximately 190 W.

In this paper, the performance analysis for evaporation capacity, total work and efficiency of the ocean thermal energy conversion(OTEC) power system using mixed refrigerant(R32,R152a) is conducted to find the effect of hot wasted water on OTEC power system. The system in this study is applied with two stage turbine, regenerator, cooler and separator on Organic Rankine Cycle. The commercial program HYSYS is used for the performance analysis. The main results were summarized as follows : The efficiency of the OTEC power cycle has a largely effect on the evaporation capacity and total work. As increasing temperature of heat source water, evaporator's capacity is decreased but total work increase. Otherwise, using hot wasted water bring effects not only increasing system efficiency but also declining evaporator's capacity. Thus With a thorough grasp of these effect, it is necessary to find way to use hot wasted water emitted by power plant and so on.

Electrowetting is a versatile tool to handle tiny droplets and forms a backbone of digital microfluidics. Numerical analysis is necessary to fully understand the dynamics of electrowetting, especially in designing electrowetting-based devices, such as liquid lenses and reflective displays. We developed a numerical method to analyze the general contact-line problems, incorporating dynamic contact angle models. The method is based on the conservative level set method to capture the interface of two fluids without loss of mass. We applied the method to the analysis of spreading process of a sessile droplet for step input voltages and oscillation of the droplet for alternating input voltages in electrowetting. The result was compared with experimental data. It is shown that contact line friction significantly affects the contact line motion and the oscillation amplitude. The pinning process of contact line was well represented by including the hysteresis effect in the contact angle models. In level set method, in the mean time, material properties are made to change smoothly across an interface of two materials with different properties by introducing an interpolation or smoothing scheme. So far, the weighted arithmetic mean (WAM) method has been exclusively adopted in level set method, without complete assessment for its validity. We viscosity, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and permittivity, can be an alternative. I.e., the WHM gives more accurate results than the WAM method in certain circumstances. The interpolation scheme should be selected considering various characteristics including type of property, ratio of property of two fluids, geometry of interface, and so on.
