Oil viscosity is one of the important parameters for machinery condition monitoring. Basically, it is expressed as kinematic viscosity measured by capillary flow and dynamic or absolute viscosity measured by rotary shear viscometry. Recently, acoustic wave techniques appear in the market, measuring viscosity as the product of dynamic viscosity and density. For Newtonian fluids, knowledge of density allows conversion from one viscosity parameter to the other at a specific shear rate and temperature. In this work, oil samples with different chain lengths of viscosity index (VI) improvers and concentrations were examined by different viscometric techniques. Results showed that acoustic viscosity measurements give misleading results for oil samples with high molecular weight VI improvers and at low temperatures ${\leq}40^{\circ}C$.

The new viscosity theory is applied to the abnormal behavior of the viscosity near the critical point. This theory suggests that the viscosity is equal to the product of the absolute pressure(kinetic pressure + internal pressure) and the collision time. We can find this abnormal behavior to be due to the large collision time near the critical point. The agreements between theoriticals and experimentals of the critical enhancement are satisfactory.

Purpose: While rapeseed oil, soy bean oil, palm oil and waste cooking oil are being used for biodiesel, the viscosity of them should be lowered for fuel. The most widely used method of decreasing the viscosity of vegetable oil is to convert the vegetable oil into fatty acid methyl ester but is too expensive. This experiment uses ultrasonic energy, instead of converting the vegetable oil into fatty acid methyl ester, to lower the viscosity of the waste cooking oil. Methods: For irradiation treatment, the sample in a beaker was irradiated with ultrasonic energy and the viscosity and temperature were measured with a viscometer. For heating treatment, the sample in a beaker was heated and the viscosity and temperature were measured with a viscometer. Kinematic viscosity was calculated by dividing absolute viscosity with density. Results: The kinematic viscosity of waste cooking oil and cooking oil are up to ten times as high as that of light oil at room temperature. However, the difference of two types of oil decreased by four times as the temperature increased over $83^{\circ}C$. When the viscosity by the treatment of ultrasonic energy irradiation was compared to one by the heating treatment to the waste cooking oil, the viscosity by the treatment of ultrasonic energy irradiation was lower by maximum of 22% and minimum of 12%, than one by the heating treatment. Conclusions: Ultrasonic energy irradiation lowered the viscosity more than the heating treatment did, and ultrasonic energy irradiation has an enormous effect on fuel reforming.

본 논문은 상온상태의 폐아스팔트 포장재료를 가열재활용하여 기층용뿐만 아니라 표층용으로 활용함에 있어 재생 아스팔트 바인더의 특성을 연구한 것이다. 4종류의 RAP을 가지고 RAP 자체의 기본 물성을 시험하였다. 배합설계는 표층에는 RAP을 10, 20%를 첨가하였고, 기층에는 10. 20, 30%를 첨가하였다. 재생혼합물의 신규바인더로는 AC 60-80을 선정하였다. 침입도, 점도, GPC, TFO. 저온균열 저항성을 평가하기 위한 BBR 실험을 수행하였다. 절대점도와 GPC에서의 대형입도분자(LMS)를 지수함수 회귀분석을 통해 $R^2$이 0.95 이상이었고 이것은 절대점도 추정에 GPC 결과가 상당히 정확함을 시사해주고 있다. RAP을 첨가한 재생 아스팔트 바인더의 PG 저온 등급은 일반 신규 바인더에 비해 한 단계 높은 등급을 나타내므로 저온균열에 대한 저항성은 약간 약한 것으로 나타났다.

아스팔트는 노화에 따라 물리적 특성변화가 일어난다. 하지만 같은 수준으로 노화시킨 아스팔트 혼합물들임에도 골재와 결합재 등에 따라 서로 다른 강성이나 취성을 보인다. 이는 노화에 의한 바인더 특성 변화의 차이에 기인한 것인데 이와 같이 혼합물 내에서 바인더의 물리적 특성 변화 차이에 영향을 주는 요인에 대한 연구는 별로 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 아스팔트 혼합물의 노화 후추출한 바인더의 물리적 특성을 측정하고 물성 차이에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 폴리머 3종류와 골재 두 종류, 두 가지 입도, 두 종류의 아스팔트를 사용하여 32종류의 혼합물을 제조하고, 이를 장 단기 노화 처리하였다. 각 혼합물의 노화 후 Abson recovery 방법으로 바인더를 추출 회생하고 바인더 물성 시험(침입도, 동점도, 절대점도)을 수행하였다. 이를 SAS를 이용하여 통계 분석하였다. 바인더 시험에서 골재 종류와 폴리머가 노화시 물성변화에 차이를 가져오는 심각한 요인임을 알 수 있었고, 입도는 점도 변화에 큰 영향을 미치는 인자인 것임을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과, 혼합물 내의 바인더 물성은 골재 종류, 입도, 개질제의 종류, 바인더의 종류 등의 다양한 요인에 의해 많은 영향을 받는 다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Compacted clay materials are often used to form barriers for waste disposal by means of landfill. The performance of clay barrier depends on its permeability characteristics under the site environments. The study discusses permeability characteristics of 4 types of permeants through a compacted clayey soil. Permeabilities are measured using the modified rigid-wall permeater and with water, PEG, Ethanol, and TCE, ranging 80 to 3.4 of dielectric constants. Results of the study are as follows : 1) Absolute permeabilities of Ethanol and TCE that their dielectric constants are lower than that of water are $K=1.0{\times} 10^{-12} cm^2$, and $5.8{\times} 10^{-12} cm^2$, respectively, that is, 1.67, and 9.67 times of permeability of water, respectively. Absolute permeability and dielectric constant of water are $K=6{\times} 10^{-13} cm^2$, and 80, respectively. 2) Changes in absolute permeability of Ethanol and TCE converge to a constant after 3.5 pore volume of permeant flows through the clay sample. This can be explained that diffuse double layer of clay is no longer reacted with permeants and contracted their pores. However there is no change in absolute permeability when water is used as a per-meant. 3) It is found that absolute permeability in reversely proportional to the value of dielectric constant of the permeants. Change in absolute permeability of the permeants with 40 or over of dielectric constant is not significant. However change in absolute permeability of the permeant with 30 or lower dielectric constant is abruptly increased. 4) A lower absolute permeability of PEG is found because of its high viscosity.

소수성실리카를 안정제로 하는 현탁중합반응법을 이용하여 합성한 스티렌(St)/부틸메타크릴레이트(BMA) 공중합체 (co-PSB) 입자의 전단점도를 모세관 레오미터 (capillary rheometer)를 이용하여 $170^{\circ}C$에서 측정하였다. co-PSB 입자의 전단점도는 중량평균분자량이 74,800 g/mol 이하인 경우 낮은 전단속도에서는 뉴톤거동을 보였다. 중량평균분자량이 136,800 g/mol을 초과하면서 전단점도는 전단속도의 전 영역에 걸쳐 감소하였고 전단속도에 대한 기울기의 절대값은 분자량의 증가와 함께 증가하였다. St/BMA의 구성비가 7/3, 5/5 및 3/7의 co-PSB 입자는 유사한 분자량을 나타내었지만 BMA의 구성비가 증가하면서 유리전이온도와 전단점도는 감소하였다. St/BMA의 구성비가 1/9 인 co-PSB의 경우 유리전이온도는 더욱 감소하였으나 초기 전단점도는 크게 증가하였다. 카본블랙을 함유하는 co-PSB 복합체 입자의 전단점도는 카본블랙의 증가에 따라 증가하였으나, 카본블랙의 농도에 따른 전단점도의 변화는 분자량 및/혹은 구성비의 변화 효과에 비교하여 미약하였다.

In this paper, the wakes behind a square cylinder were simulated using two kinds of different turbulence models for the eddy viscosity concept such as the zero- and the one-equation model in which the former is the mixing length model and the latter is the k-equation model. For comparison between numerical and analytical solutions, we employed three skill assessments: the correlation coefficient(r) for the similarity of the wake shape, the error of maximum velocity difference(EMVD) for the accuracy of wake velocity and the ratio of drag coefficient(RDC) for the pressure distribution around the structure. On the basis of the numerical results, the feasibility of each model for wake simulation was discussed and a suitable value for the empirical constant was suggested in these turbulence models. The zero-equation model, known as the simplest turbulence model, overestimated the EMVD and its absolute mean error(AME) for r, EMVD and RDC was ranging from 20.3 % to 56.3 % for all test. But the AME by the one-equation model was ranging from 3.4 % to 19.9 %. The predicted values of the one-equation model substantially agreed with the analytical solutions at the empirical mixing length scale $L=0.6b_{1/2}$ with the AME of 3.4 %. Therefore it was concluded that the one-equation model was suitable for the wake simulation behind a square cylinder when the empirical constant for eddy viscosity would be properly chosen.

1) The copolymerzation of acrylamide $(M_1)$ with styrene $(M_1)$ was studied in absolute methanol solution at $50^{\circ}C$, using azobisisobutyronitrile as a initiator. The monomer reactivity ratios determined at $50^{\circ}C$ were as follows: $r_1=0.2,\;r_2=1.05$ and from these values, Q and e values for acrylamide were calculated as 0.37$(Q_1)$ and 0.45 $(e_1)$. 2) Overall activation energy of copolymer was calculated to 24.3K/cal mol, using the Arrhenius epuation. 3) Measurement of intrinsic viscosity and observation of physical properties were made on the copolymer.
