Lysozyme activity in buffalo milk in relation to the period of lactation, parity of animal, weather conditions and udder infections was studied. Effect of storage and heat processing of milk on lysozyme activity was determined. Lysozyme activity was higher in buffalo milk than in cow milk. Buffalo colostrum showed lysozyme activity 5 times of that in mature milk. Lysozyme activity in buffalo milk was not influenced by the parity of animal and the stage of lactation, however, it increased during extreme whether conditions (winter and summer). Lysozyme in both cow and buffalo milk exhibited maximum activity at pH 7.4. Buffalo milk lysozyme was fully stable while the cow milk lysozyme was partly inactivated by pasteurization (low temperature-long time as well as high temperature-short time treatments). Lysozyme in buffalo milk was more stable than in cow milk during storage and heat treatment. A 10 to 50-fold increase in milk lysozyme activity was observed in mastitic cows. An assay of lysozyme activity in milk can be used to diagnose mastitis in cattle but not in buffaloes. Some buffaloes exhibited 1000 fold greater lysozyme activity and moderately raised somatic cell count in milk, but there was no sign of mastitis in these animals. A possible role of milk lysozyme in prevention of mastitis in buffaloes is discussed.

While melting glaciers due to global warming have facilitated the development of polar routes, Arctic vessels require reliable anti-icing methods to prevent hull icing. Currently, the existing anti-icing method, i.e., the heating coil method, has disadvantages, such as disconnection and power inefficiency. Therefore, a carbon nanotube-based surface heating element method was developed to address these limitations. In this study, the numerical analysis of the surface heating element method was performed using ANSYS. The numerical analysis included conjugate heat transfer and computational fluid dynamics to consider the conduction solids and the effects of wind speed and temperature in cold environments. The numerical analysis method of the surface heating element method was validated by comparing the experimental results of the heating coil method with the numerical analysis results (under the -30 ℃ conditions). The surface heating element method demonstrated significantly higher efficiency, ranging from 56.65-80.17%, depending on the conditions compared to the heating coil method. Moreover, even under extreme environmental conditions (-45 ℃), the surface heating element method satisfied anti-icing requirements. The surface heating element method is more efficient and economical than the heating coil method. However, proper heat flux calculation for environmental conditions is required to prevent excessive design.

Risk assessment on Jeju Special Self-Governing Province(JSSGP)'s water supply facilities and establishment of adaptation measures for climate crisis factors were implemented. JSSGP's vulnerability to the climate crisis was high in the order of drought, heat wave, heavy rain and strong wind. As a drought adaptation measure, policies of water saving and revenue water ratio improvement were considered. As for the heat wave adaptation measure, the introduction of an advanced water treatment process was suggested in response to the increase of algae cell number which resulting in taste and odor problem. As for heavy rain adaptation measures, the installation and operation of automatic coagulant injection devices for water purification plants that take turbid surface water were proposed. As a measure to adapt to strong winds, stabilization of power supply such as installation of dual power line was proposed in preparation for power outages. It is expected that water facilities will be able to supply high-quality tap water to customers even under extreme climate conditions without interruption through risk assessment for climate crisis factors and active implementation of adaptation measures.

According to the IPCC analysis, severe climate changes are projected to occur in Korea as the temperature is expected to rise by 3.2 ℃, the precipitation by 15.6% and the sea level by 27cm by 2050. It is predicted that the occurrence of abnormal climate phenomena - especially those such as increase of concentrated precipitation and extreme heat in the summer season and severe drought in the winter season - that have happened in Korea in the past 30 years (1981-2010) will continuously be intensified and accelerated. As a result, the impact on and vulnerability of the water management sector is expected to be exacerbated. This research aims to predict the climate change impacts on streamflow of Daecheong Lake area of Geum River in South Korea during the summer and winter seasons, which show extreme meteorological events, and ultimately develop an integrated policy model in response. We projected and compared the streamflow changes of Daecheong Lake area of Geum River in South Korea in the near future period (2020-2040) and the far future period (2041-2060) with the reference period (1991-2010) using the HEC-HMS model. The data from a global climate model HadGEM2-AO, which is the fully-coupled atmosphere-ocean version of the Hadley Centre Global Environment Model 2, and RCP scenarios (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) were used as inputs for the HEC-HMS model to identify the river basins where cases of extreme flooding or drought are likely to occur in the near and far future. The projections were made for the summer season (July-September) and the winter season(November-January) in order to reflect the summer monsoon and the dry winter. The results are anticipated to be used by policy makers for preparation of adaptation plans to secure water resources in the nation.

The Small Punch Test (SPT) was developed to evaluate the softening and embrittlement of materials such as power plants and nuclear fusion reactors by taking samples in the field. Specimens used in the SPT are very thin and small disk-shaped compared to specimens for general tensile test, and thus have economic advantages in terms of miniaturization and repeatability of the test. The cryogenic SPT can also be miniaturized and has a significantly lower heat capacity than conventional universal test machines. This leads to reduced cooling and warm-up times. In this study, the cryogenic SPT was developed by modifying the existing room temperature SPT to be cooled by liquid nitrogen using a super bellows and a thermal insulation structure. Since the cryogenic SPT was first developed, basic experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of it. For the validation, aluminum alloy 6061- T6 specimens were tested for mechanical properties at room and cryogenic temperature. The results of the corrected tensile properties from the SPT experiment results were compared with known room temperature and cryogenic properties. Based on the correction results, the effectiveness of the cryogenic SPT test was confirmed, and the surface fracture characteristics of the material were analyzed using a 3d image scanner. In the future, we plan to conduct property evaluation according to the development of various alloy materials.

연소기 노즐은 고온 고압의 연소가스를 화학에너지에서 운동에너지로 변환시켜 추력을 발생시킨다. 따라서 노즐 내부 벽면은 고온 고압의 연소가스에 노출되며, 특히 노즐 목에서는 최대 열하중을 받는 구간으로서 열구조적으로 안정성을 확보한 냉각 시스템 설계가 이루어져야 한다. 본 연소기 노즐은 수냉 방식으로서 열전달 효율을 높이기 위해 냉각 채널 구조로 되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 연소기 노즐을 위한 냉각 채널 구조의 기본 설계안에 대해 유동 해석을 수행하고 공급 압력 및 유량 변화에 따른 입/출구 사이의 압력 강하량을 예측하여 초기 형상안에 대한 압력 손실 및 설계 유량 공급을 위한 압력 조건에 대해서 평가하고자 하였다. 최종 선정안에 대해서는 내부 열전달 및 유동장 해석을 수행하여 흐름 및 열구조 안정성을 평가하였다.

This study analyzed and compared development mechanisms leading to heat waves of 2016 and 2018 in Korea. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Reanalysis Interim (ERA Interim) dataset and Automated Surface Observing System data are used for synoptic scale analysis. The synoptic conditions are investigated using geopotential height, temperature, equivalent potential temperature, thickness, potential vorticity, omega, outgoing longwave radiation, and blocking index, etc. Heat waves in South Korea occur in relation to Western North Pacific Subtropical High (WNPSH) pressure system which moves northwestward to East Asia during summer season. Especially in 2018, WNPSH intensified due to strong large-scale circulation associated with convective activities in the Philippine Sea, and moved farther north to Korea when compared to 2016. In addition, the Tibetan high near the tropopause settled over Northern China on top of WNPSH creating a very strong anticyclonic structure in the upper-level over the Korean Peninsula. Unlike 2018, WNPSH was weaker and centered over the East China Sea in 2016. Analysis of blocking indices show wide blocking phenomena over the North Pacific and the Eurasian continent during heat wave event in both years. The strong upper-level ridge which was positioned zonally near 60°N, made the WNPSH over the South Korea stagnant in both years. Analysis of heat wave intensity (HWI) and duration (HWD) show that HWI and HWD in 2018 was both strong leading to extreme high temperatures. In 2016 however, HWI was relatively weak compared to HWD. The longevity of HWD is attributed to atmosphere blocking in the surrounding Eurasian continent.

본 연구는 계절변화를 표현하기 위해 실생활에서 흔히 사용되는 기후 절기의 기온 변화 패턴을 파악하고 실제 기상 현상과의 부합도를 분석하고자 하였다. 전국 61개 관측소 자료를 통한 분석 결과, 관측지점 평균 기온이 증가할수록 연중 기온변화 파형의 정점에 해당하는 극서기중심이 7월 21일에서 8월 5일, 즉 절기적으로 입추 쪽으로 이동하였다. 주요 기후 절기인 대서, 상강, 대설, 대한을 중심으로 살펴 본 절기부합도는 전체적으로 낮을 뿐만 아니라 지역적 차이도 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 대부분 관측소에서 각 절기에 해당하는 기상 현상은 현저히 늦게 나타났는데, 각 절기일 기준 1주 이내로 관측된 경우는 전체의 7.7~40.4%에 머물렀다. 대서, 상강, 대설의 절기부합도는 동서 방향으로 차이를 보였고, 절기부합도가 비교적 높게 나타난 대한에는 동서 간의 차이보다는 남북 방향의 위도 조건이 절기부합도 변화 패턴에 영향을 주었다. 절기별 기온변화 경향과 속도가 지역적으로 균일하지 않다는 점을 고려한다면, 개별 절기의 배열과 각 절기 간 시간 간격에 대한 조정을 고려함으로써 24절기의 현실적 유용성을 제고할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

본 연구는 위성영상 기반의 열 분포도 및 폭염을 심화시키는 요인 간의 공간적 상관성을 분석하여 열 집중지역과 향후 폭염 위험이 증가할 수 있는 공간의 탐색을 목적으로 수행되었다. 열 집중지역과 폭염 심화요인의 인구, 토지이용, 건축물 각각의 전역적 Moran's I는 높게 나타나 특정 공간에 집중하는 것으로 나타났다. 국지적 Moran's I 분석 결과로, 열 집중지역은 수도권 및 광역시 등 대도시에서 주로 나타났고 상대적으로 온도가 낮은 지역은 산림지역이 우세한 강원도 및 경상북도, 소백산맥 지역에서 집중적으로 나타났다. 인구증가율이 높은 지역은 서울 주변의 경기도, 대전, 부산 인근지역에서 군집 분포하였으며 토지이용과 건축물은 수도권과 대도시에 집중하는 유사한 공간 패턴을 보였다. Bivariate Local Moran's I 분석결과는 열이 집중된 지역에서 인구증가율이 높고, 인공적·도시적 건축환경 및 토지이용이 이루어지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 열 집중지역의 순위를 도출할 수 있으며 전국적으로 열이 집중되고 이를 심화시킬 수 있는 환경을 가진 지역을 탐색할 수 있으므로 궁극적으로 선제적 폭염 대응대책 수립에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
