A study was performed on combustion rates of three kinds of combustible substances under a few different combustion conditions. To measure the combustion rates by weight method, I contrived an apparatus using a sensitive load cell. The experimental results by the combustion tests of various combustible substances shows that the combustion circumstances, eg., air supply condition and the existence of flammable oil. And it is found that the time constant T in case of oil absence is smaller than that in case of oil existence, and the time constant T in case of enforced air-entrained condition is greater that in case of natural air-entrained condition.

The effects of superplasticizers on fresh and hardened concrete were investigated. The experimental program included tests on the workability and slump loss, bleeding, setting time, air content, compressive, tensile and flexural strength, permeability, shrinkage, freeze-thaw durability and creep deformation. Properties of superplasticized concrete were compared with those of conventional and base concretes. Superplasticizers were observed to have an appreciable fluidifying action in fresh concrete. They permitted a significant water reduction while maintaining the same workability. Bleeding of superplasticized concrete was much lower than that of conventional concrete of the same consistency. This indicates that the use of superplasticizers did not affect the tendency of segregation of fresh concrete. The compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths of superplasticized concrete were significantly higher than those of conventional concrete. The permeability and drying shrinkage and creep of superplasticized concrete were less than those of conventional concrete, but there were no significant differences between base and superplasticized concrete. Compared with base concrete, non-air-entrained superplasticized concrete had slightly higher freeze-thaw durability. and superplasticized concrete with an appropriate amount of entrained air Eave even better resistance to freezing and thawing.

Up to now, many researches have been performed md verified that many properties of concrete can be improved by using mineral admixtures such as blast furnace slag, silica fume, and expansive admixture. But it is not clear whether there is any need for entraining air to make a high strength concrete using expansive admixture and mineral admixtures to insure enough freeze-thaw resistance. this paper presents the strength and durability properties of high strength concrete using expasive admixtures and industrial by-products. It was observed from the test results that very high strength concrete$(W/B=20\%)$ is not needed to be air entrained and high strength concrete$(W/B=30\%)$ using expansive admixture and mineral admixtures is needed to be entrained $2\~4\%$ air.

The use of fly-ash has been being increased to prevent alkali-aggregate reaction in concrete and to reuse industrial by-product. However the absorption of unburnt carbon to cement particles due to the increase of fly-ash usage decreases air content result in the risk at durability due to free-thawing. The properties of entrained air in fresh concrete, with various fly-ash replacement ratios and different types of air entraining agents, have been analyzed to suggest basic data for the stable air entraining property with large amount of fly-ash replacement in concrete.

Commercial coal gasifiers typically use entrained flow type reactors, but have unique features in terms of reactor shape, gasifying agent, coal feeding type, ash/slag discharge, and reaction stages. The MHI gasifier is characterized as air-blow dry-feed entrained reactor, which incorporates a short combustion stage at the bottom and a tall gasification stage above. This study investigates the flow and reaction characteristics inside a MHI gasifier by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in order to understand its design and operation features. For its pilot-scale system at 200 ton/day capacity, the distribution of coal and air supply between the two reaction stages was varied. It was found that the syngas composition and carbon conversion rate were not significantly influenced by the changes in the distribution of coal and air supply. However, the temperature, velocity and flow pattern changed sensitively to the changes in the distribution of coal and air supply. The results suggest that one key factor to determine the operational ranges of coal and air supply would be the temperature and flow pattern along the narrower wall between the two reaction stages.

In this study, the droplet size distribution of a slit injector at different surrounding conditions, such as air flow and fuel temperature, were investigated. Phase Doppler anemometry (PDA) was utilized to investigate the initial droplet size distribution and the effect of fuel temperature and air flow on droplet size distribution. The entrained air motion was also evaluated by the temporal velocity profile of droplets. When the air flow velocity increased, the small droplets were more entrained to the upper and central parts of the spray and this tendency was confirmed by plotting the temporal velocity profile of droplets. This entrainment of small droplets at high airflow velocities caused relatively small mean droplet size at upper and central parts of the spray and the large mean droplet size at downstream and edge of the spray, compared to that of low airflow velocities. The total mean droplet size, obtained by averaging the size of all droplets measured at all test locations, decreased when the high airflow velocities were applied. The increased fuel temperature, with an airflow velocity of 10m/s, caused reduced droplet size at all test locations. However, the decreased value of mean droplet size at high fuel temperatures was relatively higher at upper parts of the spray, compared to downstream, as a result of enhanced entrainment of small droplets to upper parts of the spray.

Ultra high pressure injection equipment was developed to estimate and analyze the spray characteristics in ultra high pressure injection. Spray patterns were visualized by schlieren method and analyzed in ultra high pressure. Spray tip penetration, spray thickness, spray volume, and entrained air mass increased with the increase of the injection pressure. But over 2,800 bars of the injection pressure region, it was shown that the rate of improvement was not increased remarkably ,and the spray characteristics such as spray penetration, volume, and entrained air mass were reversed and got worse at 4,140 bars.

In this report, the physical and chemical properties of Che-ju aggregates were stedued, and the properties of concrete using 5 types combinations of Che-ju aggreagtes were compared with those of concrete using Dag-jeon area aggreagtes. As a result of the properties of Che-ju aggregates are very different with Dae-jeon area aggregates in many aspects. Especially, entrained air content of aggregate is over 1.5% so that the freezing & thawing resistance of concrete was caused in decrease. And the texture properties of Che-ju aggregates and a little content of the entrained air in mortar increase bonding stress between mortar and aggregate, as a result in improving the compressive strength of concrete. Meanwhile, the relationship between cement water ratio(C/W) and 28days compressive strength of concrete(F28) is derived from the stastical regression using experimental data as $F_{28} = -99 + 276 *($(C/W), so this eqation is useful for mix-design of concrete in Che-ju area.

It has been recognized that the compressibility of hydraulic fluid, which is characterized by the value of its bulk modulus, heavily affects on the system behavior and performance. In practice, the value of the oil bulk modulus varies by the operational and structural characteristics of the hydraulic system. This study presents the theoretical derivation of the effective bulk modulus and describes an experimental impulse technique that allows accurate measurement of oil effective bulk modulus with pressure variation in a hydraulic system. Experimental and analytical results show that the value of the effective bulk modulus varies a lot in low pressure region by the effect of entrained air, while the effective bulk modulus can be estimated just using the oil and container bulk modulus on the other high pressure region.

The present study is aimed to investigate experimentally on the hydrodynamic behaviours of air ~ pulverized coal flow in rectangular combustor with cavity. Mean velocity, density and tur¬bulent properties of pulverized coal in rectangular entrained flow combustor were measured by PDA. Experimental results show that the flow reattachment point at the lower plane in the com¬buster chamber has been developed near X/D= 15. The similarities at each section are found after the flow reattachment point. The maximum values of turbulent intensity and Reynolds shear stress have been shown near Y/D=6, which is higher than centerline. The maximum density of the pulverized coal sited in the range ofY/D=6~8.
