Reynolds and Froude numbers, along with tracer tests, have been widely used to estimate hydrodynamics in full-scale horizontal sedimentation basin in water treatment plants (WTPs). In spite of this, the former numbers do not reflect actual operating conditions, instead most often being based on the dimensions of the structures. The index and graphic analyses most often used were found to be too subjective to accurately analyze tracer test results. In order to overcome these limitations, dispersion number was applied for analysis of tracer test results. Tracer tests were conducted in eight full-scale sedimentation basins in six WTPs, and then analyzed by index and graphic analyses as well as by dispersion number. The dispersion number was more useful as an indicator of the hydrodynamic behavior in the basin. It was also found that as dispersion number decreased, flow approached the ideal for plug flow in which case, higher sedimentation efficiency could be expected.

This paper describes the development of the stream-tube based dispersion model for modeling contaminant transport in open channels. The operator-splitting technique is employed to separate the 2D contaminant transport equation into the pure advection and pure dispersion equations. Then the total variation diminishing (TVD) schemes are combined with the second-order Lax-Wendroff and third-order QUICKEST explicit finite difference schemes respectively to solve the pure advection equation in order to prevent the occurrence of numerical oscillations. Due to various limiters owning different features, the numerical tests for 1D pure advection and 2D dispersion are conducted to evaluate the performance of different TVD schemes firstly, then the TVD schemes are applied to experimental data for simulating the 2D mixing in a straight trapezoidal channel to test the model capability. Both the numerical tests and model application show that the TVD schemes are very competent for solving the advection-dominated transport problems.

Experimental methods of plume dispersion in convective boundary layer using a composite turbulence water tank have been established through (ⅰ) manufacturing of water tank system, (ⅱ) providing of tracer whose volatility is relatively low, (ⅲ) development of software for image processing of dispersed particles in fluid, and (ⅳ) application of appropriate similarity law. Using these methods, the vertical dispersion coefficient $$\sigma$_2$ at long distances on mesoscale and the centerline height $Z_c$ of plumes have been measured. Measurement of $$\sigma$_2$ have been validated through comparison with CONDORS field experiments, and analysed with respect to the intensity of heat flux and mechanical turbulence as well as plume release height. Downwind distance where plume center height approaches to final level has also been analysed in respect of these three parameters.

본 연구에서는 자연하천에서 수집하기 용이한 수리량 자료로부터 종확산계수를 추정하는 공식을 개발하였다. 차원해석을 수행하여 물리적 의미를 가진 변수를 선정한 후, 종확산계수를 추정하는 회귀식을 유도하기 위하여 비선형 다중회귀방법의 하나인 One-Step Huber 방법을 적용하였다. I 단계 연구에서 분석한 바 있는 미국 전역의 26개 하천 59지점의 수리 및 농도자료를 사용하여 새로운 종확산계수 추정식을 개발하였다. 59지점의 자료중 35지점은 종확산계수를 추정하는 회귀식을 유도하는 데 사용하고, 나머지 24지점을 사용하여 유도한 회귀식을 검증하였다. 기존의 공식과 비교한 결과, 본 연구에서 개발한 추정식이 자연하천의 확산 특성을 보다 정확하게 설명할 수 있음이 밝혀졌다.

To study the effect of oxyfluorination on water dispersion of phthalocyanine blue(C.I. pigment blue 15:3), the pigment was oxyfluorinated using various oxygen to fluorine ratio of the reactant gas. After the oxyfluorination of the phthalocyanine blue pigment, no significant change in FT-IR spectra was observed, whereas XPS spectra showed the introduction of oxygen and fluorine containing functional groups. This suggests that the oxyfluorination of the pigment only occurred on the surface of the pigment particle and resulted in no significant change in UV-Vis spectra of the pigment. However, the oxyflurinated pigments showed improved water dispersion, compared to the non-treated pigment. Especially, when the oxygen to fluorine ratio was 47:3, the water dispersion of the oxyfluorinated pigments significantly increased, compared to the non-treated pigments. This suggests that the oxyfluorination of the phthalocyanine blue pigment has a potential to be used as a water dispersion improving method.

복합재료의 제조에 있어서 분산은 매우 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 복합재료의 제조 시 matrix 용재에 강화재를 보다 잘 분산하기 위하여 용매를 사용하는데 용매에 따라 분산도가 달라지기 때문에 어떠한 용매가 분산에 용이할지에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 솔벤트 용매(DMF, NMP, Ethylene glycol, Acetone, DI water)에 대해 나노 필러인 산화 그래핀(Graphene oxide)의 용매에 따른 GO의 분산거동과 용해도 분석을 통해 분산에 유리한 용매를 파악하고자 하였다. 그 결과 UV-Vis spectroscopy 흡광도 측정을 통해 DMF와 Ethylene glycol이 가장 좋은 분산성을 가짐을 알 수 있는 반면 DI water는 가장 낮은 분산성을 보임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 표면장력과 시간에 따른 분산 육안 관측을 통해 DI water, Ethylene glycol, NMP, DMF, Acetone 순으로 분산성이 우수한 것을 알 수 있었는데 이는 Hansen solubility parameter 값과 일치하는 경향임을 확인할 수 있었다.

Simvastatin is an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, which catalyzes the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, an early and rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Simvastatin has good permeability, but it also has low solubility (BCS class II), which reduces its bioavailability. To overcome this problem, a solid dispersion is formed using a spray-dryer with polymeric material carrier to potentially enhance the dissolution rate and extend drug absorption. As carriers for solid dispersion, Gelucire$^{(R)}$44/14 and Gelucire$^{(R)}$ 50/13 are semisolid excipients that greatly improve the bioavailability of poorly-soluble drugs. To avoid any toxic effects of an organic solvent, we used aqueous medium to melt Tween$^{(R)}$ 80 and distilled water. The structural behaviors of the raw materials and the solid dispersion were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The DSC and PXRD data indicated that the crystalline structure of simvastatin was transformed to an amorphous structure through solid dispersion. Then, solid dispersion-based tablets containing 20 mg simvastatin were prepared with excipients. Dissolution tests were performed in distilled water and artificial intestinal fluid using the USP paddle II method. Compared with that of the commercial tablet (Zocor$^{(R)}$ 20 mg), the release of simvastatin from solid dispersion based-tablet was more efficient. Although the stability study is not complete, this solid dispersion system is expected to deliver poorly water-soluble drugs with enhanced bioavailability and less toxicity.

A three-dimensional digital image processing technique is proposed to quantitatively predict the dispersion phenomena of oil droplet onto the surface of the water. This technique is able to get the dispersion rate of an oil droplet three-dimensionally just below the surface of the water over time. The obtained dispersion rate obtained through this technique is informative to the investigation into the relationship among the gravity, surface tensions between oil, water, and air. This technique is based upon the three-dimensional PIV(Particle Imaging Velocimetry) technique and its system mainly consists of a three CCD(Charge Coupled Device) cameras, an image grabber, and a host computer in which an image processing algorithm is adopted for the acquisition of dispersion rate oil an oil droplet.

Dispersion polymerization of acrylamide was carried out in the media of methyl alcohol/$H_2O$ mixtures using hydroxypropyl cellulose and ammonium persulfate as steric stabilizer and initiator, respectively. The effects of concentrations of initiator and steric stabilizer, amount of monomer, polymerization temperature, methyl alcohol/$H_2O$ ratio, and purification of monomer and nitrogen purge on the particle size of the latices and molecular weight of the polymers were investigated. The average particle diameter increased with increasing concentration of initiator, water content in methyl alcohol/$H_2O$ media, and polymerization temperature, but decreased with monomer and stabilizer concentrations. The viscosity average molecular weight increased with increasing concentrations of monomer, steric stabilizer, and water content in dispersion media, but decreased with initiator concentration and polymerization temperature. The PAM polymers prepared with the purified monomer and the nitrogen purging before the reaction showed the highest molecular weight.

해상에 설치되는 담수화 공장의 가동에 따른 환경영향평가를 위하여 고온고염 배출수의 확산을 예측하였다. 진해만에 설치될 담수화 공장에서는 200ton/일의 해수를 유입하여 50ton은 담수화 하고 150ton은 고온고염수로서 배출한다. 배출되는 해수의 수온은 15℃ 상승되며, 염분은 약 1.33배 증가된다. 배출수의 확산예측에서는 2차원 조류모델로 이류를 계산하며, 몬테카르로 방법으로 난류확산을 재현한다. 배출수에 의한 수온상승의 예측에서는 대기를 통한 열량 방출을 감소요인으로 고려하였으며, 100일간의 계산을 통하여 평형상태의 확산분포를 재현하였다. 고염수에 의한 확산에서는 감쇠가 없는 것으로 간주하였으며, 약 1년간의 계산을 통하여 평형상태의 확산분포를 재현하였다. 평형상태에서 배출수에 의한 수은상승과 염분상승은 배수구 근처에 국한되어 나타났으며, 각각 약 0.01℃와 0.001‰의 상승폭을 보였다.
