Wet compression means the injection of water droplets into the compressor of gas turbines. This method decreases the compression work and increases the turbine output by decreasing the compressor exit temperature through the evaporation of water droplets inside the compressor. Researches on wet compression, up to now, have been focused on the thermodynamic analysis of wet compression where the decrease in exit flow temperature and compression work is demonstrated. This paper provides thermodynamic and aerodynamic analysis on wet compression in a centrifugal compressor for a microturbine. The meanline dry compression performance analysis of centrifugal compressor is coupled with the thermodynamic equation of wet compression to get the meanline performance of wet compression. The most influencing parameter in the analysis is the evaporative rate of water droplets. It is found that the impeller exit flow temperature and compression work decreases as the evaporative rate increases. And the exit flow angle decreases as the evaporative rate increases.

가스터빈엔진에서 압축기가 사용하는 에너지는 터빈에서 생성하는 에너지의 $30-50\%$까지도 이르기 때문에 압축기의 일을 줄이는 연구는 가스터빈의 효율을 증가시키는 문제와 연관된 중요한 연구주제이다. 압축기의 일을 줄이는 한 가지 방법으로 압축기의 입구에 물입자를 분사하는 방법이 제안되었는데, 이 방법은 물입자가 증발하면서 압축기 출구의 온도를 낮추어서 결과적으로 압축과정에 소요되는 에너지를 줄일 수 있는 방법이다. 이전까지의 연구는 열역학적 해석에 집중하여 온도 및 일의 감소를 해석하거나, 실험에 근거하여 가스터빈의 성능변화에 집중되었다. 본 논문에서는 물분사의 영향을 마이크로터빈용 원심압축기에 적용하여 열역학적 해석 뿐 아니라 공력학적 해석을 수행하였다. 물을 분사할 경우 공기압축과정보다 임펠러 출구 유동각이 줄어들었으며, 증발율이 높을수록 유동각 감소가 증가하였고, 압력비가 낮을수록 유동각 감소가 증가하였다.

습식압축으로 압축소요동력을 줄이고 재생기로 배기가스 에너지를 회수함으로써 열효율을 향상시킬 수 있는 습식압축 재생 브레이튼 사이클에 대하여 엑서지 해석을 수행하였다. 해석모델을 통하여 시스템의 엑서지 효율과 요소별 엑서지 파괴비 및 배기가스로 인한 엑서지 손실비에 미치는 압력비와 물분사율의 영향을 조사하였다. 전형적인 운전조건에 대한 계산 결과 습식압축 재생 가스터빈 사이클에 의하여 엑서지 효율을 상당히 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 물 분사 효과는 배기가스의 엑서지 손실의 감소와 출력 동력의 증가로 나타난다.

To stabilize the energy price, the more storage facilities of energy are required and among the storage methods of LPG and LNG, the method of storage at low temperature under normal confining pressure is considered. It is needed to understand the mechanical and thermal characteristics of rock under temperature variation so that the behaviors of rock can be predicted. In this paper, the variation of the rock charateristics of the Hwangdeung granite and the Boryung sandstone is studied at low temperature. The mechanical characteristics of rock under low temperatures are that as temperature decreased, unaxial compression strength and Young's modulus increased for Hwangdeung granite; strength and Young's modulus in wet condition were greater than those in dry condition. In the case of Boryung sandstone, as temperature decreases unaxial compression strength and Young's modulus increase but decrease below -10$0^{\circ}C$ in dry condition and below -16$0^{\circ}C$ in wet condtion. The mechanical characteristics of rock after cooling to previous temperature and thawing are that uniaxial compression strength and Young's modulus decrease as temperature decreases. Uniaxial compression strength and Young's modulus in wet conditon decrease more than those in dry condition. Brazilian tension strength decreases as temperature decreases.

The long-term behavior of rockfill material used in the construction of infrastructures such as dams is of great significance. Because of concerns about the application of weak rockfill material in dam construction, further experimental studies on the behavior of these materials are required. In this study, laboratory experiments were performed to investigate the one-dimensional deformation and particle breakage of the weak rockfill material under stress. A one-dimensional compression apparatus was designed and developed for testing of rockfill materials of different maximum particle sizes (MPSs). The compression tests were performed under dry, wet and saturated conditions on samples of rockfill material obtained from a dam construction site in Iran. The results of the experiments conducted at the specimen preparation stage and the 1D compression tests are presented. In weak rockfill, the effect of the addition of water on the behavior of the material was uncertain as there were both an increases and decreases observed in particle breakage. Increasing the MPS of the weak rockfill materials increased particle breakage, which was similar to the behavior of strong rockfill material. In all of the MPSs examined, the settlement of specimens under wet conditions was higher than that observed under dry conditions. Also, the greatest deformation occurred during the first hour of loading.

Wet plating has been initiated and developed as a major surface finishing technology as of the long customized and highly productive process until now. As the external compression by virtue of the environmental preservation becomes stricter, there has been new move to adapt dry plating line instead of conventional wet plating one in domestic surface finishing industry. Dry plating, so-called, plasma surface technology has been developed in semiconducting industry and becomes a key technology to be useful as an alternative to wet plating in surface finishing industry. The historical progress of domestic surface finishing industry was outlined with the background on the adaptation of three dry plating processes-plasma spraying, plasma nitriding and ion plating. The present status of domestic industrial activity was covered on major alternative to wet plating.

The weight of soundproof panels is an important consideration in the design of both panels and supporting structures. The soundproof panels in noise barriers have to carry their net weight in wet condition respectively the reduced weight and also the weight of the above installed panels in wet condition without showing any failing. In this study, a compression test and a flexural test were performed to determine the maximum vertical load which a wood plastic composites (WPC) panel can bear. In addition, the maximum loading number and height of WPC panels in a noise barrier were calculated for full, simple, and continuous support conditions.

Wet foams formed through direct foaming were stabilized using various concentrations of amiphiphilic particles that could control pore size and porosity. These porous materials showed moderate strength upon compression with high porosity. Bubble size and wet foam stability were tailored by amphiphile concentration, particle concentration, contact angle, and pH of the suspension to obtain crack-free porous solid after sintering. Closed and open pores were obtained with sizes of 30~300 ${\mu}m$ and porosities of over 80%.

Poly(lactide) (PLA)-coated paperboards were prepared by solution coating and thermo-compression coating methods and their effect of coating on the packaging properties such as tensile, water resistance, water vapor barrier, and heat sealing properties was tested. Compared with uncoated control paperboard, tensile strength (TS) of PLA-coated paperboard increased profoundly (2.2-2.6 folds) with slight increase in elongation at break (E). Water absorptiveness (WA) of the paperboard decreased 74-170 folds and water vapor permeability (WVP) decreased 6.3-22.1 folds by coating with PLA, which indicates an increase in the hydrophobicity of the surface of paperboard. Compared with polyethylene (PE)-coated paperboard, both PLA-coated paperboard exhibited 2.3 time higher heat sealing strength. In addition, the PLA-coated paperboards showed equal or higher wet TS than PE-coated paperboard. All the test results showed that the paperboard coated by the thermo-compression coating method was similar to or better than those of coated by the solution coating method.
