The phenomena of drag reduction using small quantities of a linear macromolecules has attracted the attention of experimental investigations. It is well known that drag reduction in single phase liquid flow is affected by polymer materials, molecular weight, polymer concentration, pipe diameter and flow velocity. But the research on drag reduction in two phase flow has not intensively investigated. Drag reduction can be applied to phase change system such as chemical reactor, pool and boiling flow, and to flow with cavitation which occurs pump impellers. The purpose of the present work is to evaluate the drag reduction by measuring pressure drop, mean liquid velocity, and turbulent intensity and determine the effects of polymer additives on drag reduction in horizontal two phase flow. Experimental results show higher drag reduction using co-polymer comparing with using polyacrylamide. Mean liquid velocities increase as adding more polymer, and turbulent intensities decrease as the distance for the wall in inversed.

Membrane bioreactors for wastewater treatment must operate for long periods without chemical cleaning. This study investigates the critical flux concept introduced by Field et al. as a means for achieving this goal. We conducted two series of tests: at fixed transmembrane pressure(TMP) and at fixed permeate flux. set by a volumetric pump on the permeate. Comparison of constant pressure and constants flux tests under same conditions showed that the critical flux is almost identical to the limiting or pressure independent flux obtained in constant pressure. More generally, constant flux procedure below the critical flux avoids overfouling of the membrane in the initial stage and is more advantageous for membrane bioreactor operation.

염-암모니아계 화학열펌프기술의 핵심인 전도성 블록의 특성파악을 위한 기초단계 연구로서 전도성 블록의 제조 및 기초물성분석에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 황산이 함유된 천연흑연을 열처리하여 팽창흑연을 준비하고 특성을 분석하였다. 이 팽창흑연을 압축, 성형하여 흑연지지체를 제조하였으며, 성형된 지지체에 진공기법을 이용하여 염을 함침하고 건조과정을 거쳐 전도성 블록을 제조하였다. 전도성 블록의 특성분석으로서 염의 입자내에 분산정도는 EPMA/EDS, 기공율 및 기공크기 분포는 헬륨침투법과 수은 침투법, 기체투과도는 Darcy's law를 적용하고, 열전도도 측정은 전이 일차원 열류기법을 이용하였다. 전도성 블록이 암모니아와 반응 했을때 부피팽창을 관찰하였으며, 반응기에서 전도성블록의 온도분포를 관찰하였다. 본 연구에서 제조된 블록은 염이 균일하게 분산되어 있었으며 기공율은 제조조건에 따라 0.4 ∼ 0.83, 기체투과도는 0.01 ∼ 10 Darcy, 열전도도는 흑연지지체의 겉보기 밀도가 110 kg/㎥ 인 경우, 반지름방향의 열전도도, λr은 20 W/mK, 축방향의 열전도도, λa는 17 W/mK 이였다. 겉보기밀도가 150 kg/㎥ 인 경우, λr은 22 W/wK, λa는 20 W/wK 이였다. 전도성 블록의 부피팽창은 비가역적이었으며 대부분이 반지름 방향보다 축방향에서 팽창이 일어났다. 온도분포는 초기 반응의 kinetics가 내부온도를 지배하였으나, 시간이 경과후 반응기 내부온도는 외부열전달에 의해 지배되었다.

Unlike the previous approaches, we analyzed for economic efficiency of renewed heating and cooling systems as the characteristics of space. The purpose of this study is to analysis the energy consumption and economical efficiency of absorption chillers and EHP systems in renovated library. It is important that equipment selection should be considering energy cost as well as space program. In recently, many EHP systems were installed in the building for reducing the energy cost and for seeking the convenience of individual control. In contrast, though absorption chillers have the disadvantage of a central control, absorption chillers are appropriate for the conditions of the library that needs simultaneous operation. The results by payback period method, show that selection of heating and cooling systems should be consider for space program and the characteristics of space.

In this research, we investigated synthetic method of 2,6-DANT that can be used as a chain extender of urethane/urea and epoxy materials in a demilitarization method via chemical transformations considering environmental, economical aspects and stability of process. We was able to identify through GC monitoring that 2,4-DANT and 2,6-DANT were produced when we inject 'hydrazine monohydrate 3.3 eq. by TNT 1 eq.' with a fine metering pump for 30 minutes and then, reflux for an additional 2 hours. We was able to isolate only 2,6-DANT(99.3% purity and 45.0% yield) from mixture of 2,4-DANT and 2,6-DANT through the separating and refining methods using 2,6-DANT solubility in methanol and crystallinity of 2,6-DANT.

The reduction of sulfur content in the diesel fuel has caused the poor lubricity of diesel fuel in the distributor type injection pumps of diesel engines that use the diesel for lubrication of their moving parts. To investigate the reason for poor lubricity of low sulfur diesel fuels, the wear scar diameters by HFRR (High Frequency Reciprocating Rig) were measured on the diesel fuels from Korean markets and the results were compared with their physical and chemical properties. Also, the lubricity change and the improvement effects on lubricity additives for the ultra low sulfur diesel fuel, were made experimentally, that will be regulated to a maximum of 0.005 wt% from about 2005 were evaluated. As a result, a good correlation was found between the wear scar diameter and the polyaromatic compound which includes heterocyclic compound in the diesel fuel. It was also found that the content of polyaromatic compound including heterocyclic compound was affected by the amount of desulfurization treatment fraction. And the lubricity additives with ester base were more effective than that with acid base on the ultra low sulfur diesel fuel. Therefore, it is suggested that the factors affecting the lubricity stated above should be taken into account to improve the lubricity property of the diesel fuel in the refining process.

'Ionic wind' is phenomenon induced by corona discharge which occurs when large electric potential is applied to electrodes with high curvature. The ionic wind has advantage that it could generate forced convective flow without any external energy like separate pump. In this study, 'pin-mesh' arrangement is utilized for experiments. First, optimization of configuration is conducted with local momentum of ionic wind behind the mesh. Empirical equation for prediction about velocity profile was derived using the measured results. Secondly, the enhancement of mass transfer rate of acetone with ionic wind was analyzed. Also, the drying efficiency using a fan which has same flow rate was compared with ionic wind for identification of additional chemical reaction. At last, the drying process of organic solvent was visualized with image processing. As a result, it was shown that the use of ionic wind could dry organic matter four times faster than the natural condition.

In order to improve the implementation of safety and health education at the site for industrial accident prevention activities, research was conducted to minimize inconvenience and increase utilization by redesigning and developing existing education methods. To date, occupational safety and health education has been conducted without considering the general work characteristics and functional facilities (mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, chemical) of workers (mechanical: turbine, valve, pump, hydraulic system, electrical: generator, breaker, motor, etc.). In particular, plant facilities were classified as mechanical and electrical facilities to improve the methodology for industrial safety and health education for plant maintenance workers. In addition, the "One Page Education Plan" was announced as a learning case because the spread of COVID-19 infectious diseases made it impossible to reduce or control the number of people in all groups and groups. The improvement of this training method will play a major role in improving the effectiveness of safety education in power plant workplaces.

Proton conductors have attracted considerable attention for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), hydrogen pump, gas sensor, and membrane separators. Doped $SrCeO_3$ exhibits appreciable proton conductivity in hydrogen-containing atmosphere at high temperature. However commercial realization has been hampered due to the reactivity of $SrCeO_3$ with $CO_2$. The chemical stability and proton conductivity are dependent on dopant type. The purpose of this work is to investigate chemical stability of $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$ composites in $CO_2$ and $H_2$ gases. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was performed in gaseous $CO_2$ and electrical conductivity of the composites were also measured between 500 and $900^{\circ}C$ in air and $H_2$ atmosphere. $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$ composite membranes showed good chemical stability of in $CO_2$ atmosphere and high conductivity at hydrogen condition. The hydrogen permeation of $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$ composite membranes was investigated as a function of volumetric content of $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}$. The $SrCe_{0.95}Gd_{0.05}O_{3-\alpha}-Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-\beta}$(6:4) membrane with a thickness of 1.0 mm showed the highest hydrogen permeability with the flux reaching of 0.12 $ml/min{\cdot}cm^2$ at $800^{\circ}C$ in 100%$H_2/N_2$ as feed gas.

Poly(epichlorohydrin) copolyol series (PECH copolyols) were synthesized via cationic ring-opening copolymerization (ROCP) of oxirane-based monomers and effects of reaction temperature, solvent type, and initiator were studied. As a comonomer, two types of alkylene oxides were used, and polymerization conditions were conducted both with diethylene glycol (DEG) as an initiator in methylene chloride (MC) solvent and tripropylene glycol (TPG) in toluene solvent. In order to induce the active monomer (AM) mechanism in the ring-opening copolymerization reaction, the monomer was injected by an incremental monomer addition (IMA) method using a syringe pump, and the polymerization was performed at -5 ℃. PECH copolyol, a synthesized ephichorohydrin (ECH)-based copolyol, was converted to glycidyl azide-based energy-containing copolyol (GAP copolyol) by azadizing the ECH unit through a substitution reaction. It was confirmed that the synthesized azide copolyol had little effects on changes of the solvent and the initiator. Also, the molecular weight increased 500 after the azide reaction, thereby the GAP copolyol was polymerized as designed. As the content of the comonomer increased, both the T_g and viscosity tended to decrease due to the influence of the alkyl chain length. It is possible to fundamentally prevent CH₃N₃ amount produced in the azide reaction process, and it is expected that a large-scale process could be achievable.
