Tensile strength of the woven glass fiber reinforced PET (Poly-Ethylene-Terephthalate) matrix composite manufactured by rapid press consolidation technique was investigated and evaluated. During pre-heating, consolidation and solidification stages, the optimal manufacturing conditions for this composite were discussed based on the void content and tensile properties depending on vacuum condition. It is found that the effect of vacuum condition during preheating gives a substantial difference on the strength as well as microstructure. It is also found that the failure micromechanism shows several energy absorption processes enhancing fracture toughness.

In this paper, the optimal heating pattern of the furnace is sought to reduce the unnecessary energy loss. A finite difference method was used to estimate the transient temperature field of the billet in a furnace. Heat conduction equations were used in the interior nodes of the billet, while energy balances for conduction, convection, and radiation were considered in the boundary nodes. Several heating patterns for the furnace were tested and subsequently compared each other. The results showed that the temperature in the preheating zone should be set to relatively low. The temperature distributions of the billet are quite different from each other when different heating pattern are used, even though the heating patterns have the same amount of energy consumption. It reveals that there exists an optimal heating pattern to save the energy loss.

Silicon Nitride ($Si_3N_4$), which is widely used in a variety of applications, is hard-to-machine due to its high hardness. At high temperature (e.g. above $1000^{\circ}C$), however, the machinability can be greatly improved. In this work, we used a $CO_2$ laser with a high absorptivity to $Si_3N_4$ of 0.9 to preheat the surface of a rothting $Si_3N_4$ rod. Preheating and turning of $Si_3N_4$ was executed at the same time. The result of machining was MRR of $8.0mm^3/s$ that is four times faster than normal grinding. Continuous chip formation was observed by a microscope.

The recent development of bio-ceramic material is being studied in various bio-material engineering field. There are lots of technical difficulties because manufacturing or bonding technique are required bio-friendliness, cleanliness and persistence. Zirconia ceramic powder is cladded on Ti-6AI-4V metallurgically by laser cladding processing. Laser cladding system with powder feeding delivery is designed and manufactured for optimum processing condition. Increasing of manufacturing speed and good quality of clad layer are achieved by application of preheating of substrate before laser cladding. The thin dilution and good clad layer on the substrate are obtained for applications of bio-materials such as the dental materials and the articulated joints of human body.

This study was conducted on the properties of exhaust emissions of diesel oil and fish oil blended with diesel oils using a direct injection diesel engine at different loads, and on the conditions of carbon deposits of diesel oil and 40% blend oil in the combustion chamber after 20 hours operation at $\frac{1]{2}$ load. The properties of exhaust emissions by fish oil blended with diesel oils showed no significant difference with diesel oil. However, soot emissions decreased, increasing the ratio of fish oil. Carbon deposits by fish oil blended with diesel oils were high level compared with diesel oil, which might be overcome by preheating of fuel oil and operating conditions.

The semi-solid metal forming process has been applied to realize a near-net shape fabrication of a high speed tool steel. A complicatedly shaped part out of SKH51 was successfully manufactured by introducing pertinent materials, tooling and processing conditions. A SKH51 billet with globular grains was heated at temperatures between 1300 and $1350^{\circ}C$ using high frequency induction heater to get semi-solid microstructure before high rate injection of mushy metal into a die cavity for the forming process. It was necessary to control the preheating of dies between 300 and $400^{\circ}C$ to maintain the homogeneous microstructure during the semi-solid metal forming process. Significant defects such as pores, high fraction of liquid fraction and segregation could be removed from the part by using air vents.

A basic experimental study was conducted in order to find the optimum combustion control technology to decrease the thermal NO$_{x}$, by applying the catalytic combustion method with natural gas. NO$_{x}$ emission increased with increasing space velocity due to temperature rising in the furnace. In order to overcome the low resistance to high temperature, secondary air was supplied to the CST combustor. The following secondary fuel formed combustible mixture in part, which resulted in steep increase of the exiting temperature of the 2nd catalyst bed. It led to the more generator of NO$_{x}$, 30∼60% of the 1 st catalyst bed. It might be due to the potential increase of thermal NO$_{x}$.

For the compactness of regenerative combustion, self regenerative combustion and embedding regenerator inside furnace are proposed. The Self Regenerative burner system was developed to enhance thermal efficiency and Low Nox emission. In the twin regenerative system, two burner heads are generally used for preheating and exhausting combustion mode. But self regenerative burner system use only single nozzle body for regenerative combustion. Also two kind of regenerator, internal and external type, were designed to operate conveniently in both large and small furnace. According to test result, the self regenerative combustion system gives strong internal exhaust gas recirculation that reduce NOx emission significantly. NOx was measured as 50ppm(5% O2, 1290C furnace temperature). Also it is found that the fuel saving rate due to the self regenerative burner system reach to 30-40%. Thus it can be concluded that self regenerative mild combustion system appears to provide a reasonable regenerative burner for compactness and high performance as compared with conventional twin regenerative burner system. Also in the RT Application , compact twin regenerative burner was developed with the help of embedding regenerator inside furnace.

Laser cladding processing allows rapid transfer of heat to the material being processed with minimum conduction into base metal. The effect of $CO_2$ laser cladding with high viscosity mixed powders was investigated. High viscosity mixed powder consists of bronze powder and flux that is used at a high temperature condition. The mixed powder has a high viscosity that it can be easily pasted over a curved or slope substrate. The device for mixed powder was designed and manufactured. It consists of the high viscosity mixed powder feeding system, the preheating system and the shielding gas system which prevents the clad layer from being oxidized. The results of experiment indicated that the feed rate of high viscosity mixed powder was important for later cladding with mixed powder feeding. The high viscosity mixed powder and substrate must be preheated to prevent porosity from breaking at the clad layer. The experimental result shows that the high viscosity mixed can be applied for laser cladding process.
