A 2-dimensional soil water flow model was developed to describe the migration of soil moisture in drip-irrigated root zone employing cylindrical coordinate system. Several natural phenomena were incorporated into the model such as transpiration, various types of evaporation, and ponding due to the increase in irrigation rate. Model was solved numerically by finite difference method. The model was verified in several ways leading to the conclusion that it can describe the soil moisture migration in drip-irrigated root zone fairly well. From sensitivity analysis, vertical migration of soil moisture was found to move faster than the horizontal one, which indicates the vertical location just under the dripping point are adequate for measuring points of soil moisture. The pot shape of soil moisture in irrigated zone was proved to be caused by evaporation at the soil surface. Also, it was found that the hydraulic conductivity has greatly influential to the soil moisture migration, and that the soil moisture continues to migrate vertically after irrigation stops.

A mathematical model for the pyrolysis processes during unforced smoldering of cigarette was proposed in this study by analyzing the physical model of the smoldering cigarette (including the establishment of burning front between burning zone and pyrolysis zone, and analyzing the involvement of main factors such as pyrolysis of virgin tobacco, evaporation of water, and internal heat transport in the processes). Thermal conduction of cigarette paper and convective and radiative heat transfer at the outer surface were also considered via the thermal resistance law for the competitive heat transfer mechanisms. The governing partial differential equations were solved using an integral method. Model predictions of smoldering speed, or linear burn rate, as well as temperature and density profiles in the pyrolysis zone for different kinds of cigarettes were found to be close to the experimental data in the literature (Muramatsu, 1981). The model provides a relatively fast and efficient way to simulate the pyrolysis processes and offers a practical tool for exploring important parameters for a smoldering cigarette, such as blended tobacco composition, properties of cigarette paper, and heat flux from the burning zone to the pyrolysis zone.

InSb thin films were fabricated by zone melting recrystallization of In/Sb multilayered thin films prepared by sequential evaporation. Unreacted metal phase or dispersed metal precipitates lowered the electron mobility and the electron mobility increased with development of (111) prefered orientation. Properties of the film could be controlled by changing mzximum temperature and scanning speed, and the electron mobility as high as 12, 000 cm $^2$/Vsec could be obtained under the optimized conditions.

A long-term change in the evaporation rate have an influence on the hydrologic processes at the interface between the land surface-air and crop yield. Several previous studies have reported declines in pan evaporation rate, while actual evaporation rate is expected to increase due to anthropogenic global change in the future. The decreasing trend of pan evaporation rate might be involved with global warming and accordingly the trend of annual pan evaporation rate also needs to be checked here in Korea. In this study, 14 points of pan evaporation observation are intensively studied to investigate the trend of pan evaporation for the time period of 1970-2000. Annual pan evaporation is decreasing at the rate of 1.6mm/yr, which corresponds to approximately 50mm for 30 years. Annual pan evaporation rate is larger by $\sim10%$ at the coastal area and decreasing rate is faster as -2.46 mm/yr per year, while that is -0.82 mm/yr per year at the in-land area. The results of the Mann-Kendall trend test shows 4 points are decreasing and 10 points are unchanged with 95% confidence interval. But national annual average values show the decreasing trend of pan evaporation rate as a whole, which corresponds to general trend all over the world. This study will contribute to a variety of studies on water resources, hydrology, agricultural engineering, meteorology, and coastal engineering in association with future global climate change.

From 1984 to 1989 reclaimed coastal lands in Choongnam Province of the western coast of Korea were studied for soil texture at three sites(Daeho, Hyundai A and Hyundai B) and for desalination one site(Hyundai B). The soil textures of varied sites in Hyundai A were horizontally similar and composed of 39-40% clay, 40-49% silt and 8-14% sand. But those in Da돼 and Hyundai B differed horizontally in the same area and vertically at the same site. Soil texures of Da돼 were composed of 15-17% clay, 30-45% silt and 40-55% sand and those of Hyundai B were composed of 22-45% clay, 26-49% silt and 17-31% sand. The measured electrical conductivity(EC), which represents whole salt content of the reclaimed soil, decreased year by year. The vertical distribution of the EC changed temporally and spatially in the upper zone above a 50 cm depth but not in The lower zone below a 50 cm depth. The EC valus of the soil were inversely proportional to the magnitued of annual precipitation, evaporation and the numbers of rainy days with r equalling -0.97. But the annual decrease of the EC was directly proportional to climatic factors with r=0.7. Salt in the reclaimed land was leached out by the percolative action of surplus rain water, or moved up by evaporation and carried away by running rain water. The running out of the salt on the soil surface was most efficiently carried out over 10 mm precipitation per day.

Heat transfer characteristics of evaporative transpiration cooling was investigated experimentally in the range of coolant mass flux, 0.002kg/m$^{2}$.sec~0.015m$^{2}$.sec. Glass beads, sand and copper particles were used as porous media and distilled water was used as a conant. The existence of evaporation zone was confirmed on this experimental conditions and its length increases with increasing article size and with decreasing mass flux. In order to get the low surface temperature, porous materials with high thermal conductivity is preferred when the panicle sizes are same, and small particles with low porosity is effective in case of the same material. Due to the relatively small coolant mass flux, evaporative transpiration cooling system could be stable by the capillary effect.

Heat pipes, applied to flat plate solar collectors, have a long and slender configuration with relatively low heat flux on the evaporator. Such a heat pipe has a tendency to build-up a liquid pool at the lower half of evaporator zone, and at this pool occurs such complicated phenomena of evaporation and fluid dynamics as superheat, sudden generation of bubble, its likely explosive growth process and flooding etc. In the present study, we tried to solve those problems by means of adjusting the two principle design parameters, liquid fill charge and wick length, using 4 heat pipes and 3 thermosyphons, with different values of parameter respectively. The corresponding results can be summarized as followings, - The thermal conductance of heat pipes was largely improved by el eliminating wick from adiabatic and condenser zone. - But on evaporator zone wick is inevitable to reduce behavior of the build -up of liquid pool , where arise diverse internal complex phenomena. - The liquid fill charge should have to be increased by 10∼20％ more than the quantity to saturate the wick.

EBFZM( Electron Beam Floating Zone Melting) 법을 이용하여 몰리브덴에서의 금속계 불순물과 침입형 불순물의 정련기구 및 단결정 성장기구를 연구하 였다. Fe, Cr, Co등의 금속계 불순물은 몰리브덴과의 평형증기압의 차이에 따른 불순물의 선택적 증발에 의하여 우수한 정련효과를 나타내며, 몰리브덴보다 응점이 높은 Ta, W는 잘 제거되지 않았다. 한편 대역 정제에 의한 정련효과는 미약함을 확인하였다. EBF ZM은 C,0,N등의 침입형 불순물의 정련에도 효과적 이었다. 본 연구의 모든 조건에서 몰리브덴은 단결정으로 성장하였으며 2차 재결정 epitaxy에 의한 단결 정 성장기구가 제시되었다. 몰리브덴 단결정 내의 전 위밀도는 strain-anneal법에 의한 단결정의 경우보다 높았으며,본 실험의 열처리 조건에서는 변화하지 않았다. The purification and single crystal growth mechanisms of molybdenum were analysed in EBFZM ( electron beam floating zone melting). Metallic impurities of Fe, Cr, Co were purified efficiently but Ta and W were not removed well in this study. It was due to a preferential evaporation of the elements caused by the difference in equillibrium vapor pressure between the elements and molybdenum. The pu- rification effect by zone refining was not significant. The EBFZM also refined the interstitial impurities of C, 0 and N, effectively. The single crystals of molybdenum were grown regardless of the experimental conditions and the secondary recrystallization epitaxy was surge sled as a growth mechanism. The dislocation density in single crystal was higher than that by strain-anneal method, and was not reduced by heat treatments.

A mathematical model is described for the prediction of convective upward transport of an organic solvent driven by evaporation at the surface, which is known as the major transport mechanism in the in-situ photolysis of a soil contaminated with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin(TCDD). A finite-element model was proposed to incorporate the effects of multiphase flow on the distribution of each fluid, gravity as a driving force, and the use of hysteretic models for more accurate description of k-S-p relations. Extensive numerical calculations were performed to study fluid flow through three types of soils under different water table conditions. Predictions of relative permeability-saturation-pressure (k-S-p) relations and fluids distribution for an illustrative soil indicate that hysteresis effects may be quite substantial. This result emphasizes the need to use hysteretic models in performing flow simulations including reversals of flow paths. Results of additional calculations accounting for hysteresis on the one-dimensional unsaturated soil columns show that gravity affects significantly on the flow of each fluid during gravity drainage, solvent injection, and evaporation, especially for highly permeable soils. The rate and duration of solvent injection also have a profound influence on the fluid saturation profile and the amount of evaporated solvent. Key factors influencing water drainage and solvent evaporation in soils also include hydraulic conductivity and water table configuration.
