Monitoring for moisture contents of wooden post member of Un-bong confucian school was performed in 6 months and analyzed to conserve scientifically the wooden culture building and open for common people. In inner post member of the building, variation of moisture contents was very small and upper part had relatively higher moisture contents. In outer post member, moisture contents were changed according to the weather conditions and was relatively high in bottom and upper part. Southern post has lower moisture content than eastern. These results were related to air ventilation in interior, depth of eaves and orientation of the building. In the design, construction and maintenance of wooden building, characteristics of wood should be considered like moisture contents.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of thickness and moisture on temperature distributions of reinforced concrete walls under fire conditions. Toward this goal, the first three wall specimens having different thicknesses are heated for 2 h according to ISO standard heating curve and the temperature distribution through the wall thickness is measured. Since the thermal behavior of the tested walls is influenced by thickness, as well as moisture content, three additional walls are prepared and preheated to reduce moisture content and then tested under fire exposure. The experimental results clearly show the temperatures measured close to the fire exposed surface of the thickest wall with 250 mm thickness is the highest in the temperatures measured at the same location of the thinner wall with 150 mm thickness because of the moisture clog that is formed inside the wall with 250 mm of thickness. This prevents heat being transferred to the opposite side of the heated surface. This is also confirmed by the thermal behavior of the preheated walls, showing that the temperature is well distributed in the preheated walls as compared to that in non-preheated walls. Finite element models including moisture clog zone are generated to simulate fire tests with consideration of moisture clog effect. The temperature distributions of the models predicted from the transient heat analyses are compared with experimental results and show good agreements. In addition, parametric studies are performed with various moisture contents in order to investigate effect of moisture contents on the thermal behaviors of the concrete walls.

쌀가루의 압출 조리조건과 단순 열처리조건에 따른 쌀전분의 분자량 분포와 ${\alpha}-amylase$ 민감성 변화를 조사하였다. 압출조리는 단일축 압출성형기를 이용하였으며 원료의 수분함량 $17{\sim}29%$, 압출온도 $100{\sim}150^{\circ}C$ 범위에서 처리하였다. 단순 열처리는 원통형 ???L슐에 시료를 밀봉하여 $100{\sim}200^{\circ}C$ 유탕기내에서 일정시간 가열하였다. 이들 가열처리된 시료를 다시 ${\alpha}-amylase$를 처리하여 가수분해속도를 측정하였다. 쌀 전분 원료미분의 수분함량이 23% 이하일 때 압출조리시 수분용해도와 분자량 감소가 크게 일어났으며 이러한 변화는 extruder의 기계적 에너지 투입량(MEI)과 비례하였다. 한편 단순 열처리에서는 원료 수분함량이 높아짐에 따라 가열에 의한 분자량 감소가 감지되었으나 그 변화정도는 압출조리에 비교하여 저조하였다 열처리된 시료를 ${\alpha}-amylase$로 처리하였을 경우 수분함량 23% 이하에서 압출조리된 시료는 효소적 가수분해가 크게 일어나 대부분의 전분입자가 5백만 dalton 이하의 분자량을 가지게 되었으나 고수분 압출물과 단순 열처리에서는 효소처리에 의한 분자량 감소가 크게 나타나지 않았다. 이러한 분자량 변화 현상은 전분용액의 고유점도 변화에 의하여 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 쌀전분의 저분자화에 의한 수용성 증가 및 효소반응 민감성 증대는 단순 열처리보다는 압출조리에 의하여 크게 일어나며 이것도 extruder 내에서 가열과 동시에 가해지는 강한 압력과 층밀림에 의하여 전분입자의 변형이 크게 일어나는 것을 입증하는 것이다.

This study was to obtain basic information needed to develop the effective weed control method for the production of less polluted agricultural products by inducing viability loss of weed seeds in soil with infrared irradiation. Ceramic plates were heated by LPG with the aid of forced air and the infrared produced from plates was used as the heat source for heating soil. The soil heated in this study was sandy loam with four levels of moisture contents (0.5, 5.1, 9.1, 15.0% wb). The temperature distribution was measured at various soil depths when soil was irradiated with infrared for different irradiation time (30, 60, 90 sec). The soil depths with duration time of minimum 3 minutes over $80^circ C$, temperature inducing viability loss of weed seeds, were investigated. When the moisture content of soil was 0.5% and 5.1% wb, the soil depths which can induce viability loss of weed seeds was greatly increased with increasing irradiation time. When 30 seconds of irradiation time was applied on soil with moisture content of 9.1% or 15.0% wb, any depths of soil tested in this study was not reached to the temperature of 8$0^{\circ}C$. Generally, the soil depth being needed for viability loss of weed seeds was decreased with increasing moisture content of soil.

Dewatered sludge of 400,000t/y from water treatment plants in Korea is being disposed through landfill and ocean dumping. However, the disposal is posing more and more serious environmental problems at the same time not only because of landfill site shortage in municipal suburbs, but because of the concern it will contaminate the oceans. In this study, the research on utilizing the sludge dried by flash dryer as covering soil in the landfill sites was carried out to solve these problems on environmental affinity. Both dewatered and dried sludge were exposed to the natural condition and observed according to the atmospheric changes. An experiment of soil engineering characteristics of the dried sludge and tests on mixed sludge(silty sandy soil : dried sludge = 10:90 ~ 30:70) such as particle size distribution, liquid and plastic limit, moisture content, specific gravity and compaction test were carried out. According to the compaction test, the compaction was confirmed as the optimum water content ratio was observed in the condition of SM-silty sand of particle size distribution, NP of liquid and plastic limit, 101.4% of moisture content, 2.04~2.12 of specific gravity. The results showed that dried sludges mixed with at least 30% of natural soil could be used as daily covering soil in the landfill sites.

In this paper, a simple practical method is introduced in which a simple weight measurement of concrete and finite element numerical analysis are used to determine the moisture transfer coefficient of concrete with a satisfactory accuracy. Six concrete mixtures with different water-to-cementitious material (w/cm) ratios and two pozzolanic materials including silica fume and zeolite were examined to validate the proposed method. The comparison between the distribution of the moisture content obtained from the model and the one from the experimental data during both the wetting and drying process properly validated the performance of the method.With the proposed method, it was also shown that the concrete moisture transfer coefficient considerably depends on the pore water saturation degree. The use of pozzolanic materials and also lowering w/cm ratio increased the moisture transfer coefficient during the initial sorption, and then, it significantly decreased with an increase in the water saturation degree.

A natural air in-bin grain dryer with a grain circulator was developed for on farm use. Natural air drying test for rough rice was carried out to evaluate drying rate, uniformity of moisture content distribution in grain bed and energy consumption. It took 10 days to dry 8 ton of paddy rice from 21.9%(w.b) to 16.7%(w.b) moisture contents using the prototype dryer. The average drying rate was 0.52%/day. The uniformity of moisture content after drying was superior to the conventional natural air dryer where is grains were not circulated during drying periods. The dryer performance evaluation index was 738.3KJ/(kg.water), which was more effective than that of grain circulation t)pe hot air dryer(3,500-5,000 KJ/kg.water).

잣나무, 리기다소나무, 낙엽송, 백합나무 등 수종과 두께가 다른 평단판 및 단판롤(롤 형태의 단판)을 고정형 마이크로파로 가열하여 가열 전후 형상, 표면 함수율, 함수중량 변화와 표면 열분포를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 평단판의 경우 마이크로파 가열에 따른 품질상태는 비교적 양호한 것으로 나타났지만, 약간의 뒤틀림이 발생하였으며, 이는 비균일 건조응력에 따른 변형과 고정형 마이크로파 장비의 특성상 단판 형태로 가열 시 국부적인 조사가 이루어진 영향이 컸기 때문으로 판단된다. 단판롤 형태의 마이크로파 가열 특성은 가열 후 품질 모두 양호하였으며, 특히 평단판에서 나타난 뒤틀림 등의 결함은 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 열분포 및 확산 등이 매우 안정적으로 이루어진 것으로 판단되며, 이러한 열분포는 표면 함수율 분포 및 함수중량 감소에 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 단판롤 형태는 수종 및 두께에 따라 출력과 조사시간 등 충분한 시험이 실시된다면, 고정형 장비에서도 충분한 건조효율을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
