The environmental changes related to hypoxic water mass were investigated at Gamak bay in summer times, June, July and August 2006. The hypoxic water mass was found, in first, at the northern area of Gamak bay on 27 June. This water mass has been sustained until the end of August and disappear on 13 September. In Gamak bay, the hypoxic water mass was closely related to geography. During the formation of oxygen deficiency, changes in dissolved nutrients was studied and found that on surface layer and lower layer, DIN were 0.80 ${\mu}M$~19.8 ${\mu}M$(6.03 ${\mu}M$) and 1.13 ${\mu}M$～60.83 ${\mu}M$(10.66 ${\mu}M$), and DIP were 0.01 ${\mu}M$～0.92 ${\mu}M$(0.24 ${\mu}M$), and 0.01 ${\mu}M$～3.57 ${\mu}M$(0.49 ${\mu}M$), respectively, far higher distribution on lower layer of the water where hypoxic water mass was occurred. The configuration of phosphorus was analyzed to figure out the possibility of release of phosphorus from sediments. It was found that the Labile-Phosphorus, which is capable of easy move to water layer by following environmental change was found more than 70%. Therefore, in Gamak bay, it was found that the possibility of large amount of release of soluble P into the water, while hypoxic water mass was occurred in deep layer was higher. It is suggested that DIP in the northern sea of Gamak bay mainly sourced from the soluble P from lower layer of the waters where hypoxic water mass was created more than that from basin. However, existence form of phosphorus in sediments during normal times, not during creation of hypoxic water mass, needs further study.

최근 지구온난화로 인하여 동해안 어족 자원의 감소와 변화, 해저 식생의 아열대화와 같이 동해 연안 생태계의 급격한 변화가 주목되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 1960년도부터 2005년 사이 지난 45년 동안 매년 월별로 정선해양관측한 수온, 염분, 용존산소 등의 자료를 분석하여 동해 연안에 존재하는 해수 수괴들의 특성과 지구온난화로 인한 수괴별 물리, 화학적 특성 변화를 고찰하였다. 전 수괴의 수온이 지난 45년 동안 상승하였으며, 대마난류계수(약 $1.6^{\circ}C$ 상승)보다 북한한류계수(약 $2.33^{\circ}C$)의 상승폭이 약 1.5배 크며, 기후변화의 직접적인 영향을 받는 대마난류계 표층 수온의 상승폭이 $2.57^{\circ}C$로 기온 변화폭 보다 크다. 이는 육상상태계보다 연안 생태계의 아열대화가 훨씬 빠른 속도로 진행될 수 있음을 암시한다. 반면, 표층수의 염분은 기온상승과 더불어 강수량의 증가 추세로 지난 45년 동안 약 $0.29\%_{\circ}$ 감소하였다. 용존산소농도는 전 수괴에서 감소하는 추세이며, 특히 수온 상승폭이 큰 북한한류계수의 용존산소농도 감소가 년 간 0.021 mg/l로 가장 크다. 동해고유수의 용존산소 감소는 수온 증가와 더불어 동해 내부해양순환 시스템의 변화를 암시하며, 차후, 수온 상승과 함께 연안 수산 생물의 서식환경에 부정적인 요인으로 작용할 것이다.

Zn-air battery uses oxygen from the air, and hence, air holes in it are kept open for cell operation. Therefore, loss of water by evaporation through the holes is inevitable. When the water is depleted, the battery ceases to operate. There are two water consumption routes in Zn-air batteries, namely, active path (electrolysis) and passive path (evaporation and corrosion). Water loss by the active path (electrolysis) is much faster than that by the passive path during the early stage of the cycles. The mass change by the active path slows after 10 h. In contrast, the passive path is largely constant, becoming the main mass loss path after 10 h. The active path contributes to two-thirds of the electrolyte consumption in 24 h of cell operation in 4.0 M KOH. Although water is an important component for the cell, water vapor does not influence the cell operation unless the water is nearly depleted. However, high oxygen concentration favors the discharge reaction at the cathode.

One of the major problems in glass fiber reinforced epoxy (GFRE) composite pipes is the durability under water absorption. This condition is generally recognized to cause degradations in strength and mechanical properties. Therefore, there is a need for an intelligent system for detecting the absorption rate and computing the mass of water absorption (M%) as a function of absorption time (t). The present work represents a new non-destructive evaluation (NDE) technique for detecting the water absorption rate by evaluating the dielectric properties of glass fiber and epoxy resin composite pipes subjected to internal hydrostatic pressure at room temperature. The variation in the dielectric signatures is employed to design an electrical capacitance sensor (ECS) with high sensitivity to detect such defects. ECS consists of twelve electrodes mounted on the outer surface of the pipe. Radius-electrode ratio is defined as the ratio of inner and outer radius of pipe. A finite element (FE) simulation model is developed to measure the capacitance values and node potential distribution of ECS electrodes on the basis of water absorption rate in the pipe material as a function of absorption time. The arrangements for positioning12-electrode sensor parameters such as capacitance, capacitance change and change rate of capacitance are analyzed by ANSYS and MATLAB to plot the mass of water absorption curve against absorption time (t). An analytical model based on a Fickian diffusion model is conducted to predict the saturation level of water absorption ($M_S$) from the obtained mass of water absorption curve. The FE results are in excellent agreement with the analytical results and experimental results available in the literature, thus, validating the accuracy and reliability of the proposed expert system.

Highly accurate control of the air-fuel ratio is important to reduce exhaust gas emissions of the gaseous-fuel engines. In order to achieve this purpose, inlet air mass flow must be measured exactly, and precise engine models are necessary to design engine control systems. In this paper, the effects of water vapor and gaseous fuel that change the air mass flow are studied. The effective air mass ratio is defined as the air mass flow divided by the mixture mass flow, and also it is applied to the estimation of the inlet air mass flow. The presence of the gaseous fuel and the water vapor in the mixture reduces the air partial pressure and the effective air mass ratio of the gaseous-fuel engines. The Experimental results for an LPG engine show that the estimation of the inlet ai mass flow based upon the effective air mass ratio is more accurate than that of the normal air mass flow.

A dynamic model which simulates the coupled heat and mass transfer within a vertical tube absorber was developed. The liquid film is a binary mixture of two components, and both of these components are present in the vapor phase. The pressure, concentration, temperature and mass flow rate of the vapor are obtained by assuming that the pressure is uniform within an absorber. The model was applied to an absorber for an ammonia/water absorption refrigerator. The transient behaviors of the pressure, the outlet temperature and the concentration of the solution and the cooling water outlet temperature on a step change at the absorber inlet of the cooling water temperature, the vapor mass flow rate and the concentration of the solution were shown.

The water ejector is a low pressure high flow rate volumetric pump. It utilize the energy of a low mass flow, high velocity stream to induce a large mass flow, low velocity stream. In addition, it has a very good resistances to cavitation compared to the other type of pumps, and the maintenance cost is practically nil. There has been enormous energy loss to supply the upper part water of dam which has large potential energy as mere irrigation water in domestic multipurpose dam. The new type of energy saving system which developed through the present study can economizes over 950,000 kWh per year by mixing the upper part water of dam with the waste water by the large water ejector. This paper estimates the economical efficiency of the new type of irrigation water pumping system, and further more, represents the change of performance characteristics of large water ejector, which was adapted to this system, according to the fluctuation of upper water level that seasonally changes.

남해 서부 연안역의 식물플랑크톤 군집 및 환경요인의 계절별 변화를 관찰하고자 2009년 4월부터 2010년 2월까지 계절별 조사를 수행하였다. 환경요인의 변화는 multidimensional scaling (MDS)에 따라 수괴의 변화를 분석하였을 때, 남해 연안역 수괴 (SW; South-western coastal Water mass) 및 남쪽에서 유입되는 고염의 외양 수괴(TW; Tsushima current Water mass), 서쪽 제주해협을 통해 유입되는 저염의 서해 연안수괴 (YW; Yellow sea Water mass), 그리고 해안의 하천으로부터 계절적으로 유입되는 담수(CW; Closed bay Water mass)가 영향을 미치고 있었다. 이들 수괴는 해양 환경의 시 (계절) 공간적 특성에 따라 발달과 확장 및 축소되고 있었다. 즉, 연안에서 외해역 또는 외해역에서 연안 방향(남-북 방향) 그리고 서쪽(진도 주변 해역)에서 동쪽 방향 (동서 방향)의 농도 경사를 보인다. 이러한 남-북 방향의 공간 변동은 연안에서 하천과 지하수로 유입되는 연안 담수(낮은 염분과 높은 영양염 농도)와 대마 해류(고염분과 저영양염) 사이의 혼합에 의한 것이며, 동-서방향의 공간 변동은 제주해협을 통해 남해 연안으로 유입되는 서해의 연안수(저염분과 고영양염)와 대마 해류 사이의 혼합에 의해 조절되고 있는 것으로 해석된다. 식물플랑크톤은 고영양염을 보인 서해 연안수 및 여자만, 득량만에서 높은 개체수를 보였다. 식물플랑크톤 군집별 특성은 규조류가 90% 이상 높은 비율을 차지하였으나 대마 해류 수괴에서 와편모조류가 상대적으로 높아 수괴 특성에 따른 분류군의 차이를 보여 수괴가 갖는 기원적 특성 (original characteristics)의 차이를 보였다.

When the costal zone surrounded by a breakwater has a narrow vertical opening, currents in the vicinity of a narrow entrance can result in a jet flow, coinciding with the tide. Such a Tidal-Jet Generator(TJG) can change the water mass distribution and transport processes in the domain of influence of the jet. Also, it can decrease the residual time of them. In the present study, the water purification utilizing tidal jets in the coastal zone over constant bathymetry are estimated numerically, using a finite-difference numerical scheme, named the NS-MAC-TIDE method, which isbased on the fully 3D Navier-stokes(NS) equations. The shear velocity near the inlet of the TJG are predicted from the flow field simulation, and are assessed qualitatively with the development of scouring or sediment that is caused by the change of diffusion or sweeping flowup from the seabed of sediment particles. Finally, through solving a transport equation of concentration, the residual time related on mass transport processes and the flushing mechanism for water purification are investigated.
