The drag reduction agency (DRA) for gas pipeline, a novel method used for reducing friction or drag on a gas flowing to increase the transmission efficiency of gas pipeline, is a more flexible and economical technology than internal flow efficient coatings. In this paper, an effective DRA has been developed in Authors' Institute by analyzing the hydrodynamic friction resistance on internal gas pipeline and then studying the work mechanism and molecular structure of DRA. In the meantime, a group of property test for selecting DRA material has been determined, including viscosity, contact angle, volatility, corrosion, slab extending, and flow behavior in horizontal tube. The inhibition efficiency and drag reduction efficiency of the developed DRA have been investigated finally based on the relevant test methods. Results of corrosion test show that the developed DRA has very good inhibition effect on mild steel by brushing a thin layer of DRA on steel specimens, giving inhibition efficiency of 91.2% and 73.1% in 3%NaCl solution and standard salt fog environment respectively. Results of drag-reducing test also show that the Colebrook formula could be used to calculate friction factors on internal pipes with DRA as the Reynolds number is in the range of $0.75\times10^5\sim2.0\times10^5$. By comparing with normal industrial pipes, the friction resistance coefficient of the steel pipe with DRA on internal wall decreases by 13% and the gas flux increases by 7.3% in testing condition with Reynolds number of $2.0\times10^5$.

The (polymer/carrier) composite membranes for separating the metallic ion have been prepared by the water cast-method. The morphology of these membranes was affected by the physical properties of the spreading solution. The surface tension of the (polymer/18-crown-6) composite solution was decreased with increasing the concentration of 18-crown-6 compound and the surface tension of polymer solution decreased the following order PVC>PS>CA. The viscosity of CA solution decreased with increasing the contents of the 18-crown-6 compound, but PVC and PS solutions showed no significance changes according as the concentration of 18-crown-6 compound. In the composite solutions, the spreading ability was improved by' the cyclic 18-crown-6 molecules which acted as an electric buffer and diminished the intermolecular force between the polymer chains. The (polymer/18-crown-6) composite membrane was more uniform than that of the mono polymer membrane on the coagulation state of polymer, and the top and bottom sides of membrane showed also the more smooth structure according as the concentration increment of 18-crown-6 molecule.

When a ship propeller having wing type sections rotates at high speed underwater, local pressure on the blade decreases and various types of the cavitation inevitably occur where the local pressure falls below the vapor pressure. Fundamentally characteristics of the cavitation are determined by the shapes of the blade section and their operating conditions. Underwater noise radiated from a ship propeller is directly connected to the occurrence of the cavitation. In order to design low noise propeller, it is preferentially demanded to figure out key features: how the cavity is generated, developed and collapsed and how the effect of viscosity works in the process. In this study, we first perform inviscid analysis of the partial cavity generated on two dimensional hydrofoil. Secondly, viscous analysis using FLUENT with different turbulence and cavitation models are presented. Results from both approaches are also compared and estimated.

Free radical-initiated copolymerizations of diethyl ${\alpha}$-phenylvinyl phospbate (DEPVP) with acrylonitrile (AN) and maleic anhydride (MAnh) were studied. The monomer reactivity ratios for AN/DEPVP pair, determined at $70^{\circ}C$ in bulk using benzoyl peroxide as an initiator, were;$ r_1(AN) = 0.77, r_2(DEPVP) = 0.002$. The values of the Alfrey-Price constants, Q and e, for DEPVP were calculated to be 0.012 and -1.35, respectively. Free radical-initiated copolymerization of MAnh/DEPVP pair in chloroform at $70^{\circ}C$ produced 1 : 1 alternating copolymers regardless monomer feed composition with the highest copolymerization rate at the molar ratio of MAnh : DEPVP = 7 : 3. The equilibrium constant of a charge-transfer complex between DEPVP and MAnh in deutrated chloroform, determinated at room temperature by transformed Benesi-Hildebrand NMR method, was 0.085 l/mol. The reduced viscosity of copolymers of AN/DEPVP pair decreased as the content of DEPVP units increased, while that of MAnh/DEPVP pair remained more or less constant.

An investigation was carried out to develope a processing method for Nooroong-gi powder for use of Soongneung extraction by hydrolysis with ${\alpha}$-amylase and gelatinization of rice powder followed by toasting on hot plate. Three kinds of Nooroong-gi powder were prepared according to the degree of toasting. As the hydrolysis time increased, the DE value fastly increased during initial 2 minutes and viscosity decreased markedly. When the Soongneung was extracted from Nooroong-gi at 80-100$^{\circ}C$, more than 80% of total solids was extracted during initial 10 minutes and higher temperature yielded more extraction solids. Sedimented volume of insoluble solids and turbidity were increased as the extraction temperature and time increased. Among the three Nooroong-gi powders, the more toasted one showed the higher yields, turbidity and lower L color values of Soongneung. Even though all sensory properties of the most toasted Soongneung were scored highest, the medium toasted one obtained the highest score in preference.

A novel polymeric tablet of tinidazole (TD) was formulated to treat Helicobacter pylori and Giardia lambria more efficiently with reduced hepatotoxicity by controlling the release of TD after oral administration. TD tablets containing various concentrations of either xanthan gum (XG, viscosity enhancer) and/or polycarbophil (PC, mucoadhesive) were prepared by the wet granulation method. In vitro release of TD into pH 2.0 and pH 5.0 buffer solutions was observed at 37°C by using an USP dissolution tester and an UV (313 nm) spectrophotometer. In vivo absorption of TD tablets was investigated in rabbits by measuring the blood concentration of TD after oral administration using a HPLC. Compared to a commercial TD tablet, in vitro release of TD in both pH 2.0 and pH 5.0 buffer solutions significantly decreased as the concentration: of XG or PC in the tablet increased up to 30%. However, when XG and PC was added in combination, TD was completely released in a pH 5.0 buffer solution within 8 hours, whereas the release of TD in pH 2.0 buffer solution significantly decreased. TD in a commercial tablet was rapidly absorbed after oral administration in rabbits. After oral administration of the polymeric tablets that contain both XG and PC, plasma concentration of TD dramatically decreased. Since the oral absorption of TD significantly decreased by the addition of XG and PC in the tablets while TD completely released in a pH 5.0 buffer solution, it was speculated that more TD was retained in the gastrointestinal tract. Thus, it was possible to control the release of TD by changing the content of XG and/or PC in the tablet, thereby manipulating the release rate and the gastrointestinal retention of TD after oral administration in rabbits.

The non-noble 1D nanofibers(NFs) prepared by electrospinning and calcination method were used as oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalyst for water electrolysis. The electrospinning process and rate of solution composition was optimized to prepare uniform and non-beaded PVP polymer electrospun NFs. The diameter and morphology of PVP NFs changed in accordance with the viscosity and ion conductivity. The clean metal precursor contained electrospun fibers were synthesized via the optimized electrospinning process and solution composition. The calcined $CuCo_2O_4$ NFs catalyst showed higher activity and long-term cycle stability for OER compared with other $Co_3O_4$, $NiCo_2O$ NF catalysts. Furthermore, the $CuCo_2O_4$ NFs maintained the OER activity during long-term cycle test compared with commercial $CuCo_2O_4$ nanoparticle catalyst due to unique physicochemical and electrochemical properties by1D nanostructure.

Deodorization of soybean oil was carried out at a temperature range of $220{\sim}280^{\circ}C$ for 1 or 2hrs. HPSEC(high performance size exclusion chromatography) method was used for the analysis of dimeric acids in deodorized soybean oil. Dimeric acid moieties were produced through the deodorization at $240{\sim}280^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs. The amount of dimeric acids produced was found to be in the range of 0.36 to 3.39%. Dimeric acids were not detected under the deodorizing condition of $240^{\circ}C,\;2\;hrs\;or\;250^{\circ}C,\;1\;hr$. The soybean oil deodorized in these conditions had good quality by the color and viscosity tests. The best condition of minimizing the formation of dimeric acids in soybean oils was the deodorizing conditions of $240^{\circ}C,\;2\;hrs\;or\;250^{\circ}C,\;1hr$.

Two-dimensional nonlinear free-surface wave problems are analyzed with consideration of viscosity. Navier-Stokes equation and continuity equation are solved by the application of Finite Analytic Method, and MAC scheme is used far the treatment of free surface. Surface tension effect is also considered and laminar flow is assumed. The free-surface waves in shallow water, the flows around a vortex-pair with free surface and the wave ahead of a rectangular body are simulated to test the present numerical scheme. In the shallow water problem, viscous effect due to the friction on the bottom is observed. In the second problem, the approach of a vortex-pair to the free surface is simulated to examine the interaction of vortex-pair with the free surface. In the third problem, the wave ahead of a semi-infinite floating body is simulated.
