In this study, applicability of compressed air form (CAF) fire water was verified in a bid to use the undersea effluent as fire water. Foam collector was fabricated in accordance with KS B ISO 7203-1 (Specification for low expansion foam concentrates for top application to water-immiscible liquids) and the test was conducted using fresh water as fire water for 19 times and using seawater as fire water 15 times that totaled 34 times. Foam reduction time was 237.73 seconds on average with fresh water and 215.60 seconds with seawater, which proved the applicability of CAF fire water using seawater. Besides, window breaker was fabricated to directly extinguish the fire in train and a full-scale fire test was conducted three times. At the final 3rd test, window glass was broken in 2 seconds to make the hole for fire extinguishing and suppressed the fire in 3 seconds using CAF fire extinguisher.

Over the past several decades, the polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) has received particular attention as a material for developing smart window due to their electro-optical switchable properties. In this study, PDLC cells were fabricated using acrylate monomers, namely 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (2-HEA) and ethylene glycol phenyl ether acrylate (EGPA), and the effect of the monomer composition on their electro-optical properties was investigated. The monomer mixture with a low viscosity (~10 cps) was easily filled between indium tin oxide (ITO) glasses by capillary action at room temperature. PDLC cells prepared using the mixture ratio of 1 : 9 (2-HEA : EGPA) did not show a complete opaque state at a 0 V condition but exhibited unstable electro-optical properties under an electric field. As the LC composition increased in the reaction mixture for PDLC cell preparation, the $V_{th}$ (threshold voltage) and $V_{sat}$ (saturation voltage) values as well as contrast ratio (CR) increased. $V_{th}$ and $V_{sat}$ values also increased with the cell gap thickness. PDLC cells with a $20{\mu}m$ cell gap thickness exhibited higher CR than those with 10 and $40{\mu}m$ cell gap thicknesses. Particularly, PDLC cells prepared using the mixture ratio of 7 : 3 (2-HEA : EGPA) showed excellent electro-optical properties such as a low driving voltage and high contrast ratio.

Ti-In-Zn-O (TIZO)/Ag/TIZO multilayer transparent electrodes were prepared on glass substrates at room temperature using RF/DC magnetron sputtering. Obtained multilayer structure comprising TIZO/Ag/TIZO (10 nm/10 nm/40 nm) with the total thickness of 60 nm showed a transmittance of 86.5% at 650 nm and a sheet resistance of 8.1 Ω/□. The multilayer films were expected to be applicable for use in energy-saving smart window based on polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) because of their transmittance properties to effectively block infrared rays (heat rays). We investigated the effects of the content ratio of prepolymer, the thickness of the PDLC coating layer, and the ultraviolet (UV) light intensity on electro-optical properties, and the surface morphology of polyester acrylate-based PDLC systems using new TIZO/Ag/TIZO transparent conducting electrodes. A PDLC cell with a thickness of 15 ㎛ PDLC layer photocured at an UV intensity of 1.5 mW/cm² exhibited good driving voltage, favorable on-state transmittance, and excellent off-haze. The LC droplets formed on the surface of the polymer matrix of the PDLC composite had a size range of 1 to 3 ㎛ capable of efficiently scattering incident light. Also, the PDLC-based smart window manufactured using TIZO/Ag/TIZO multi-layered transparent electrodes in this study exhibited a light brown, which will have an advantage in terms of aesthetics.

A smart window based on a retarder can transmit or block polarized lights by overlapping two smart windows. In the study, tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of blocking solar heat using smart windows with a size of 300×300 mm². Solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) values were derived through simulation using transmission and reflectance data of the smart windows. As a result of the simulation, it showed that SGHC is effective in blocking solar heat by obtaining values of 0.722 and 0.615 in transmission and blocking mode of smart windows, respectively. The test boxes were fabricated in order to verify the effect of suppressing temperature rise when applying smart windows, the inside temperature in test boxes, which are installed bare glass (reference) and two smart windows with transmission and blocking mode, were measured at 10 minutes-interval for 7 days. As of 1 p.m., the inside temperature of the test boxes with the smart windows applied showed lower temperature compared to the reference. In particular, on the day when the temperature of reference box was the highest at 66.1℃, the temperature of the test box with the smart window applied showed 61.0℃, which was lowered by 5.1℃.

This study is intended to suggest an improvement scheme of activating container multiplex cultural space through an analysis of container architecture characteristics and a survey of user satisfaction, focusing on container multiplex cultural space located in Seoul city. Hence, the elements of multiplex cultural space and the characteristics of container architecture were deduced and analyzed through precedent study and literature review relating to multiplex cultural space and container architecture, and then an analysis framework was established with items to measure the user satisfaction. Based on this, a questionnaire was created, and users were surveyed through on-site visit. The results of analyzing the container multiplex cultural space users' satisfaction are as follows. First, in order to increase user satisfaction, it is necessary to highlight visual element. Second, there is necessity for distinct space configuration, such as connection, stack and extension by utilizing the fixed specifications, the characteristics of container. Third, there is necessity for extended space where people feel a sense of openness. Fourth, it should be improved so that air is well circulated by installing glass, operable window, etc. In further research, it is thought necessary to make a study of commercial space and facilities inside university besides multiplex cultural space.

An experimental study of the air flow through inlet pipe of reciprocating two-cycle engine was investigated under motored condition. Measurements of the two components of velocity, velocity fluctuation, and the other behavior of inlet flow have been obtained by laser Doppler anemometer system. The research engine comprised the cylinder head of a two-cycle engine which mounted on optical spacer with measuring window and glass inlet entry for laser anemometer measurement. A dual beam laser Doppler anemometer was used with conventional forward scattered method and comprised argon-ion laser, frequency shifter with Bragg cell module, and the signal processor. Measurements of mean velocity fluctuation of inlet flow for different engine speeds, measuring positions, and the changes in cylinder volume are investigated. The results presented show that the changes in engine speed is shown to be strongly influenced on the mean velocity of inlet air. The effect of measuring position and cylinder volume on the inlet velocity was also investigated for the inlet port entry and is shown to be small compared to the engine speed.

칼코젠계 태양전지의 광흡수층으로 사용되는 CuInSe2은 직접천이형 반도체로 광흡수계수가 $1{\times}105cm-1$로 매우 높고, 전기광학적 안정성이 우수하여 실리콘 결정질 태양전지를 대체할 고효율 태양전지로 각광받고 있다. 광흡수층의 밴드갭 에너지가 증가하면 태양전지의 개방전압(Voc)이 증가하여 광변환 효율을 향상시킬 수 있으므로, CuInSe2에서 In의 일부를 Ga으로 치환하여 에너지 밴드갭의 변화를 주는 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 그러나 화합물내의 Ga 조성비가 증가하면 단락전류(Jsc), 충진률(fill factor)이 낮아져 태양전지 효율을 저하시키게 되므로 CIGS 박막의 적절한 화합물 조성비를 갖도록 최적조건을 확립하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 실험에서는 광흡수층 형성을 위해 Sputtering법으로 금속 전구체를 증착하고, 고온에서 셀렌화 열처리를 수행하는 Sequential process(2단계 증착법)를 이용하였다. soda-lime glass 기판에 Back contact으로 Mo를 증착하고, 1단계로 CuIn0.7Ga0.3 조성비의 타겟을 이용하여 Sputtering법으로 $0.5{\sim}2{\mu}m$ 두께의 CIG 전구체를 증착하였다. 2단계로 CIG 전구체의 셀렌화열처리를 통하여 CIGS 화합물 구조의 박막을 형성시켰다. 이때 형성된 CIGS 화합물 박막의 두께는 동일하게 함으로써, 열처리온도에 의한 박막의 구조변화를 비교하였다. 증착된 CIGS 박막은 고온 엑스선회절분석을 통해 증착 두께와 온도 변화에 따른 CIGS 층의 구조 변화를 확인하고, 동일한 증착조건으로 Buffer layer, Window layer, Grid 전극을 형성하여 태양전지셀 특성을 평가함으로써 CIGS 태양전지 광흡수층의 결정구조에 따른 광변환 효율을 비교하였다.
