The electric heat pump requiring HCFCs as a refrigerant has been for most residential air-conditioners in Korea. They cause a surge up electric power demand during summer. Moreover, the use of HCFCs and HFCs causes a serious problem to the global environment such as global warming and ozone layer destruction. An absorption chiller and heater could solve such problems. It was built and tested for analyzing the performance of the absorption chiller/heater. Experiment was done with a 1.5RT household absorption chiller and heater. It was experimented that the cooling capacity, gas capacity, COP were researched by the temperature of cooling water. The change of the cooling water temperature have effect the temperature(or pressure) of the parts on absorption chiller The result of the change of the cooling water temperature have the effects of the absorption chillers. This data will help to operate the household absorption chiller and heater.

The absorption of water into an anti-corrosive organic coating, such as alkyd and urethane resin coating, was investigated, using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Anticorrosive properties of the coatings were also measured, by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The overall absorption of water in the coating is determined by the chemical nature of resin, and decreases with increasing thickness. The enhancement of anti-corrosive performance, through increase of coating thickness, was more remarkable in the case of the coating that hadlower equilibrium water absorption. The absorption kinetics curves were Fickian in nature. The EIS analysis confirmed that the resin, having lower equilibrium water absorption, shows higher anti-corrosive performan.

In order to reduce the high absorption ratio of spent coffee grounds, this study examined the compressive strength and absorption ratio of mortar replacing coated spent coffee grounds according to the type of water repellent. In order to examine this, as the water repellent used, a silane-based water repellent (fluorine-based water repellent) and an acrylic-based water repellent, which are film-type water repellents, and a silane/siloxane-based water repellent, which are penetration-type water repellents, were used. The spent coffee grounds were coated with each of three water repellents, and mortar was prepared by mixing cement and fine aggregate. As a result of the experiment, the compressive strength and absorption ratio of the mortar replaced with coated spent coffee grounds coated with the film-type water repellent were superior to the penetration-type water repellent. Therefore, in order to reduce the high absorption ratio of spent coffee grounds, a suitable water repellent is a film-type water repellent. Among them, it is judged that the acrylic type has excellent water repellency and is suitable.

Strain-hardening cement-based composites (SHCC) under cracked condition exhibits remarkable capillary absorption due to water ingress from multiple cracks. Surface treatment using water repellent agents is an effective way for improving water resistance of SHCC, but the water resistance may remarkably decrease when cracks penetrate impregnation depth. Another way is to add water repellent agents directly into the mixture, offering SHCC integral water repellency even if cracks form later. However, although integral water repellent treatment has been proved feasible by previous studies, there is still lack of simulation work on the treated SHCC for evaluating its durability. This study presents a simulation method for capillary absorption of cracked SHCC with integral treatment based on a multi-scale approach proposed in the authors' previous work. The approach deals with water flows in bulk matrix and multiple cracks using two individual transport equations, respectively, whereas water absorbed from a crack to its adjacent matrix is treated as the mass exchange of the two equations. In this study, the approach is enhanced for the treated SHCC by integrating the influencing of water repellency into the two transport equations as well as the mass exchange term. Using the enhanced approach, capillary absorption of water repellent SHCC under cracked condition is simulated, showing much more reduced water ingress than the untreated concrete, which is consistent with total absorption data from previous tests. This approach is also capable of simulating water spatial distribution with time in treated SHCC reasonably.

Recently, various types of towels and dishcloth dryer products are being widely distributed in Korea. Evaluation methods for water absorption properties of various fabrics have been developed, and there are many studies using them. This study newly intended that whether it is possible to obtain data that can quantitatively analyze the water absorption characteristics of various fabrics, to show the correlation between the water absorption height and the amount of water (water holdup) absorbed, and to experimentally suggest the applicability to evaluate the drying capacity of towel dryer using IR camera. Through these experiments, it was confirmed that quantitative data on the water absorption height of various fabrics can be measured using an IR camera and can be clearly applied to the performance evaluation of actual products.

방식도막의 수명에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 물의 흡수과정을 quartz crystal microbalance법 및 임피던스 원리를 이용하여 연구하였다. 도막에 있어서 물의 흡수량과 전해질 농도 변화에 따른 도막의 capacitance를 조사하였다 방식도막에 대한 물의 흡수는 삼투압 작용에 의해서 이루어지고, 흡수 초기단계에서는 도막두께가 얇을수록 흡수량이 많은 것을 알 수 있었다 그리고 도막을 구성하고 있는 수지의 종류 및 결합 가교밀도에 따라서 흡수성이 큰 영향을 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 방식도막에 있어서는 접촉하는 전해질 용액의 농도 변화에 따라 흡$\cdot$탈수 현상이 발생하였으며, 같은 종류의 도막이라도 도막두께가 얇을수록 탈수현상에 따른 capacitance의 증가폭이 큰 것으로 나타났다

The changes of water absorption and surface area of polydimethylsiloxane-5-fluorouracil devices containing different water soluble additives such as sodium chloride, glycerine, poly-propylene glycol(PPG 400), and polyethylene oxide(PEO 400, 400 and 2000) were investigated. It was confirmed that carriers controlled water absorption and swelling of the devices in the aqueous solutions. The water absorption and the swelling were affected by the osmotic pressure and ionic strength of the aqueous solutions.

Applied decanol and nonanol provided more weight loss than applied heptanol and octanol. PET using decanol showed the highest weight loss than other alcohols applied. Sodium hydroxide caused weight loss in PET fabrics because terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol were separated by the hydrolysis of the ester group in the PET chains. The terephthalic acid was neutralized to disodium terephthalate and the reaction results in weight loss in the PET fabrics. The weight loss increased with increasing hydrolysis time because disodium terepthalate was water soluble and the reaction was not reached at equilibrium. Pretreatment alcohols increased water absorption, especially in case of PET applied decanol revealed the highest water absorption. PET applied decanol showed 400% of initial water absorption, and PET applied nonanol revealed 250% of initial water absorption. However, the pristine PET showed 90% initial water absorption, and it revealed 230% maximum water absorption as compared to other alcohols. Also, PET applied decanol, nonanol, octanol and heptanol showed 600%, 400%, 350% and 300% maximum water absorption, respectively. The result implied alcohol length affected on water absorption of PET fibrous assembly. This implies that the microvoid of the PET surface hold water molecules. Surface morphology of PET appears that the pretreatment reagent attacks almost entire surface of the fiber, causing surface etching. As the surface etching progresses, it propagates inside the fiber, resulting in the formation of elongated cavities on the surface.

The water leak in water-cooled generator stator windings can generate the serious accidents such as insulation breakdown and it brings a generator to the unexpected sudden outage. Accordingly, it is important to diagnose the water absorption of them for the effective operation of power plant. Especially, the capacitance value which is measured for diagnosis is very small so the special diagnosis methods like stochastic theory are needed. KEPRI developed the water absorption test equipment and diagnosis technology for them. The developed diagnosis technology is applied to the real system and the results of water absorption test for stator windings are agreed to them of water leak test.

Pilot scale에서의 나노복합체의 상용화를 위해 용융 삽입법을 적용하고 이축 압출기로 제조한 polyamide/MMT 나노복합체의 흡습 특성을 연구한 결과, MMT 도입으로 수분 흡수율이 감소되었으며 그에 따라 치수 안정성이 향상되었다. 굴곡강도 및 탄성률은 수분 흡수율이 증가함에 따라 저하되었으며, 이로부터 MMT의 도입은 강도 향상효과와 함께 흡습방지를 통한 강도 저하 억제효과도 보이는 것으로 조사되었다.
