The estimation of the remaining life for the aged components in power plant as well as chemical and petroleum plants has been recently concerned. The raw materials used in this study are the 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel which intensified P and S compositions along with the nominal compositions of ASTM A 470 standard. Five kinds of specimens with the different degradation levels were prepared by isothermal aging heat treatment at 630.deg.C. The mechanical properties and rotated bending fatigue strength of virgin and aged 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel have been investigated through the hardness, tensile, fatigue test, SEM fractograph and EDS analysis at 538.deg.C and room temperature, respectively. Thus the data of aged specimens were compared with those of virgin specimen to evaluate the aging effects. The main results obtained in this study are as follows ; The decrease of the yield and tensile strength due to degradation was distinguished until 50, 000hrs simulated service time. And it was confirmed that the considerable amount of P, Mn, Cr and S was precipitated at the grain boundary of aged material through the SEM and EDS analysis. The rotated bendingd fatigue strength at 538.deg.C of virgin, 25, 000, 50, 000, 75, 000 and 100, 000 hrs aged material was decreased 44.6 %, 49.6 %, 51.5 %, 52.4% and 53.8% than that of virgin material at 10$_{7}$cycles of room temperature, respectively. The major cracks of virgin and aged materials mainly initiated at the inclusions including Si, P and Mn compositions which were located at the outer periphery of the specimen.n.

Numerical models simulating the process of NAPL from contaminated soil or groundwater through steam injection can be a useful tool for designing and evaluating the cleanup strategy under various field conditions. One and two dimensional numerical analyses were conducted based on the governing equations describing the NAPL removal as a non-isothermal, multi-phase and multi component process. Relatively good agreements were obtained between the numerical results and the observations from one-dimensional laboratory experiment, except some discrepancy due to experimental difficulties. Simulation effectively identified the steam displacement process of xylene floating on the water table and TCE sinking on the aquifer bottom in a two-dimensional analysis. Overall, simulation models have a high potential in the design/appraisal of a system for field application of the technique as well as in the examination of complex processes such as vaporization which is hard to identify experimentally.

The variation and structure of the cold water mass around Ganjeol Point during the summer of 2011 were studied using data from CTD observations and temperature monitoring buoys deployed at 20 stations off the southeast coast of Korea. There was a $-12^{\circ}C$ surface temperature difference between the cold water mass and normal water during the monitoring period. Variations in the isothermal lines for surface temperature along the coast showed that the seabed topography at Ganjeol Point played an important part in the distribution of water temperature. Cold water appeared when the wind components running parallel to the coast had positive values. The upwelling -response for temperature fluctuations was very sensitive to changes in wind direction. Vertical turbulent mixing due to the seabed topography at Ganjeol Point can reinforce the upwelling of cold bottom water. From wavelet analysis, coherent periods found to be 2-8 days during frequent upwelling events and phase differences for a decrease in water temperature with a SSW wind were 12-36 hours.

A study on compressive creep behavior of ACM rubber for automotive engine gasket was performed using TMA thermal analysis. From the results of isothermal measurements with constant load of 1 N at several different temperatures of 160, 180, 200, and $220^{\circ}C$, compressive creep data at the given temperatures were obtained, and therefrom, shift factor ($a_T$) and master curve at reference temperature of $160^{\circ}C$ were obtained using time-temperature superposition principle (TTSP). $C_1$ and $C_2$ of WLF (Williams-Landel-Ferry) equation were calculated through the WLF plot as -1.107 and 11.571, respectively. From this, life time of ACM rubber at $120^{\circ}C$ was predicted as about 24,000 hrs.

Explosion and fires can occur in all segments of chemical and petroleum industries because of complexity of process, usage and storage of flammable and reactive chemicals, and operating conditions of high pressure and temperatures. Especially chemical plants have high possibility of the occurrence of BLEVE(Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion)and Fireball. In this study, a computer program was developed for the effect assessment of BLEVE and Fireball. BLEVE was analysed by three explosion models of physical explosion model, isothermal expansion model and adiabatic expansion model and Fireball using solid model. The parametric sensitivity analysis has been done for the models of BLEVE and Fireball. The damage by BLEVE and Fireball of Benzene and Toluene and m-Xylene were estimated.

The aim of this study was to analyze high temperature deformation stability and properties of duplex stainless steels(DSS) according to annealing temperature. In order to analyze high temperature deformation stability, a number of compression tests were carried out with a stain rate of $10^{-2}s^{-1}{\sim}10s^{-1}$ up to a compression ratio of 50% in a temperature range of $950^{\circ}C-1300^{\circ}C$. The analysis of high temperature deformation stability of DSS was performed based on the Ziegler model. In order to analyze the high temperature properties of DSS, annealing treatments were conducted by isothermal holding for 1 hr at $950^{\circ}C$ to $1300^{\circ}C$ with $50^{\circ}C$ intervals followed by water cooling. The hardness and tensile tests were performed on specimens with different volume fractions of constituent phases, such as austenite, ferrite and sigma. The hardness and tensile strength of 2507 according to the annealing temperature are better than those of 2205. The strain rate sensitivity and Ziegler parameter are higher in 2205 than in 2507 as a whole, which implies that 2205 is better than 2507 in terms of forgeability at high temperature.

The thermal decomposition characteristics of boron-potassium nitrate ($BKNO_3$) were investigated by non-isothermal thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). Two steps of mass loss were observed in the temperature range between room temperature and $600^{\circ}C$. Kinetic parameters of the thermal decompositions were evaluated from the measured TGA curves using the AKTS Thermokinetics Software. For the first step of mass loss ($220-360^{\circ}C$) corresponding to the thermal decomposition process of the binder (Laminac/Lupersol), the activation energy is in the range of approximately 120-270 kJ/mol when evaluated by Friedman's iso-conversional method, while the value of activation energy varies in the range of approximately 150-400 kJ/mol during the second step process ($360-550^{\circ}C$).

$AlFe_2B_2$ produced by using a conventional arc melter has a ferromagnetic material with a Curie temperature ($T_C$) of around 300 K, but the arc-melt generates paramagnetic $Al_{13}Fe_4$ impurities during the synthesis of $AlFe_2B_2$. Impurities are brought to cause a decrease in magnetocaloric effects (MCEs). To investigate the effects of $Al_{13}Fe_4$ impurities on MCEs, we prepared and compared ascast and acid-treated samples, where the acid treatment was performed to remove the $Al_{13}Fe_4$ impurities. For the structural analysis, powder X-ray diffraction was carried out, and the measured data were subjected to a Rietveld refinement. The presence of $Al_{13}Fe_4$ impurities in the as-cast sample was observed in the phase analysis measurements. Magnetic properties were investigated by using Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) measurements for the as-cast and the acid-treated $AlFe_2B_2$ samples. From isothermal magnetization measurements, Arrott plots were obtained showing that the transition of $AlFe_2B_2$ has a second-order magnetic phase transition (SOMT). The $T_C$ and the saturation magnetization increased for the acid-treated sample due to removal of the paramagnetic impurities. As a consequence, the magnetic entropy change ($-{\Delta}S$) increased in the pure $AlFe_2B_2$ samples, but the full width at half maximum in the plot of $-{\Delta}S$ vs. T decreased due to the absence of impurities.

This study uses Diglycidyl ether of terephthalylidene-bis-(4-amino-3-methylphenol) (DGETAM), an amine hardener 4,4'-diaminodiphenylethane (DDE) and cationic catalyst N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate (BPH) to make epoxy film. For analysis, ¹H_NMR and FT-IR were used to verify proper synthesis, and the liquid crystallinity of DGETAM was checked using Differntial Scanning Calorimetry and Polarized Optical Microscopy. Thermal conductivity of the sample was measured using Laser Flash Apparatus. Thermal stability as well as thermal conductivity is important when used as a packaging material. Activated energy is the energy needed to generate a response, which can be used to estimate the energy required to maintain physical properties. It was obtained using the Arrhenius equation based on the data measured by isothermal decomposition using Thermogravimetric Analysis. Measurement of the thermal conductivity of epoxy films showed higher thermal conductivity when DDE was used, and it was found that thermal conductivity had an effect on thermal stability, given that it represented an activation energy similar to a film with BPH upon 5% decomposition.
