  • Applying microwave, a velocity measurement system has been developed in order to measure the velocity of stream water surface. It's main purpose is the measurement for high velocity of flood water. It is under the developing stage of experimental measurement system. The microwave surface velocity meter uses Doppler effects of microwave. It consists of a radio frequency(RF) part and that of signal processing. Thr RF part has the function of microwave oscillation, reception of reflected wave, and determination of Doppler frequency, etc. Signal processing designates amplification, fast Fourier transform, etx. Various measuring experiments were performed at bridges and a spillway of Taechong re-regulation dam with the microwave velocity meter. Verification test was also made through water tank of ship model test at Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering. It shows 4% error inherent in A/D converter and additional several percentage errors from measurement circumstance. The measuring ranges are from 0.5 to 3.5 m/s. The result shows good linear relationship between carriage velocity and measured velocity, thus proves usefulness as a measuring instrument for flood water velocity. The instrument requires overall re-engineering procedure and number of data should be accumulated and analyzed to treat wind effects and random fluctuations of water surface.

  • Generally, they respond to a phenomenon, with their any way, which they have looked at in their surroundings, and also put into their action successively and variously according as what it is. A person who has not so much problems in experiential education added to mental and physical ability prefers controlling his manner by himself as seeing, listening and feeling to being cured it by other physical support. Meanwhile, even though there are tools that we use conveniently in everyday life, it is sometimes required that user is able to control his action by himself with a certain interactive function to deal with a accidental situation. For example, in the home, when they were cooking, washing dishes and taking a bath they would not often control their minds on how to act about flowing water through the faucet going back and forth between saving and easygoing. By reasons of those statements, the project has been studied to propose the new conceptual faucet which digital technology is applied to, for recognizing the volume of water flowed through water pipe as counting it with built-in flow meter, and then saving water as controling the water-flow with faucet lever. It means that homemakers can observe the flow rate of water from the faucet placed in front of the sink in kitchen and control it right away for saving water. For studying this project, the kinds and features of the various flow-meters that measure the volume of water-flow were researched and analyzed for taking a reasonable type to the new ideal faucet. According to this analyzing, turbine-flow-meter was selected as appropriate form for the digital display-built-in faucet that would be presented in this project. As the next step, the basic structure was created for developing a new conceptual faucet. Finally two models have been presented through several steps for making the suitable shape to the new style faucet.

  • It was reported that green tea extract has antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. To improve the quality of seasoned squid, green tea water extract was sprayed on seasoned squid (water content 25%) and water content was adjusted to 27% and 29%. During storage at $30^{\circ}C$, TBA value, total plate count, browning were analyzed. Browning were analysed by 3 different method (absorbance of water solubilized color, 5% KOH-methanol solubilized color and color difference meter). Water and 5% KOH-methanol solubilized color showed good correlation, but color index detected by color difference meter was not. Green tea water extract slowed TBA value increment and reduced total plate count, so it was supposed that green tea water extract acts positively in manufacturing seasoned squid.

  • This study aimed at simulating several responses to stresses caused by the ground water level variations around the K-1 oil stockpile. For this simulation, we considered the characteristic hydrogeological condition including the special occurrence of long and thick acidic dyke, which is regarded as the main geological structure dominating the ground water flow system at this study area. We activated twenty-four imaginary wells which are located in northern and southern area around central K-1 site. Each neighboring distance is altogether 300 m and whole distance between K-1 site and remote wells is 1,200 m. Through the modeling, we operated the long-term and continuous pumping tests and finally categorized five zones based on maximum pumping rates for the imaginary wells; zone I within 300 meter distance from K-1 site with a pumping rate of 50 $m^3/day$; zone II between 300 to 600 meter distance from K-1 site with a pumping rate of 75 $m^3/day$; zone III between 600 to 900 meter distance from K-1 site with 150 $m^3/day$; zone IV between 900 to 1,200 meter distance from K-1 site with 300 $m^3/day$; and zone V of acidic dyke area. At zone V, especially because of their possibility of high transmissivity for groundwater flow, it is necessary to control and restrict groundwater discharge.

  • This is an experimental study to raise higher efficiency of filteration than conve ntional filteration by increasing of filteration capacity for per unit area and by extending of filteration lasting time with biflow filter system which was improved from the conventional rapid sand filteration method in the process of water purification treatment. In order to raise more efficient function of filteration and giving consideration to the filter layer at upper and lower parts of the filter, the fine sand & an thracite were used as a filter medium. Although there is some difficulty than previous fine sand in procurement, it could confirm that such filter medium (fine sand & anthracite) was more effective in the field of load, lasting time and back wash, etc. In consideration of practical effect of filteration. The raw water which was used for this experimental study was not coagulated. As a result of this experiment, the filteration volume could increase more than 2 times than that of conventional method. Besides, much more advantages could be obtained for instance, the requirement of installation area was not much and installation cost could economize. On the other hand, the following results were found. The quality of filtered water became worse as time goes by and the turbidity of filtered water was more influenced by raw water turbidity than by rate of filteration. Lasting time of filteration on change of filteration rate in the filter layer reached 2 times in comparison with previous filter basin, and until loss gead reached to 1.0 meter and 1.5 meter, the following relate formulas between lasting time and rate of filteration were formed. ($T_{1.5}=181.96V^{-0.46},\;T_{1.0}=121.31V^{-0.46}$) Even though the lasting time can be shorten in case of the increase of the filteration rate, but the lasting time was prolonged more than 2 times than of previous method. With taking aim at contribution to the development of water treatment technique, we are planning to study continuously for the future study basing on the results in this papers.

  • S. Korean Government has accelerating its efforts to enhance the quality of the drinking water. The Ministry of Environment has declared the law of securing water-pollutant buffering zone to minimize the inflow of the point and nonpoint sources into the drinking water sources. As a first phase of installing nationa-wide water-pollutant buffering zone, approximately 300km buffering zone has been delineated along the South and North Han river, the major drinking water sources for the capital area of S. Korea, which has the population of more than 12 millions. The buffering zone has the width of 1,000 meter for the special protection area, and 500 meter for the remaining area from both ends of the river. The major works have been done in three stages. Firstly, the boundaries lines of the buffering zone was delineated on the digital topographic maps. Secondly, the maps were overlayed with the cadastral maps to identify individual land parcels, the street address of the major pollutant discharging facilities, and all different types of pollutants including livestocks. Thirdly, the field work has been done as a verification. Once the buffering zone was generated, all the information for the buffering gone were created or imported from other government agencies including official land price, details of the major manufacturing facilities discharging considerable amount of pollutants, major motels and resorts, not to mention of restaurants, etc. Also, major livestock houses were located to identify the path of the pollutant inflow to the drinking water source. Further works need to be continued such as purchasing private lands within the buffering zone and change the land use in the efforts to decrease the pollutant amount and to provide more environmentally friendly space. Also, high resolution satellite imagery should be utilized in the near future as a cost-effective data source to update all the landuse activities within buffering zone.

  • The measuring apparatus such as heat meter is legally obliged to be installed and used for heat rating with heat or flow rate in residential buildings in Korea. There are two kinds of apparatus to measure heat consumed at each households, i.e., heat meter and hot water flowmeter. Contrast to the most of buildings with hot water flowmeter well being used for rating, heat meters have been used only 42.6% in the buildings with central heating system. But there is a critical problem in the course of using hot water flowmeter for heat rating, yielding distorted and unfair result which is different from the real value of heat supplied. Experiments with several parameters were carried out in this study to analyze this phenomenon quantively and alternative methods were proposed for rational heat rating.
