가로흐름이 존재하는 천해역으로 방출되는 표면온배수에 의한 온도장의 정확한 예측을 위한 근해역 2차원 수치모형을 개발하였다. 개발된 모형은 4-방정식 난류모델로서 열적 시간상수에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 없는 2-방정식 난류모델의 단점을 극복하기 위하여 변동온도 자승 평균항 및 그것의 감쇠율에 대한 전달방정식을 2-방정식 모델의 전달방정식에 추가한 모델이다. 또한, 부력생성항 및 난류 열플럭스항을 도입하여 연직방향 확산현상을 고려하고자 하였다. 개발된 수치모형을 간단한 단면을 갖는 개수로 정상류의 경우에 대하여 적용하였으며, 그 결과를 기존의 실험결과 및 2-방정식 난류모델을 사용한 수치계산결과와 비교하였다. 4-방정식 모형에 의한 계산결과가 2-방정식 모형보다 실험결과와 잘 일치하였으며, 제트 포획 및 안정화 영역에서 온배수의 물리적 특성을 잘 재현하였다.

Premixed flame is better than diffusion flame to accomplish a high loading combustion. Since the turbulent characteristics of unburned mixture has a great influence on the flame structure, it is general that many researchers realize a high loading combustion with strengthening turbulent intensity of unburned mixture. Because turbulent premixed flame reacts efficiently on the condition of distributed reaction region, we made high turbulent premixed flame in the doubled impingement field. We investigated turbulent characteristics of unburned mixture with increasing shear force and visualized flames with direct and Schlieren photographs. And the combustion characteristics of flame was elucidated by instantaneous temperature measurement with a thermocouple, by ion currents with a micro electrostatic probe, by radical luminescence intensity and local equivalence ratio. Extremely strong turbulent of small scale is generated by impingement of mixture, and turbulent intensity of unburned mixture increased with the mean velocity. As a result of direct photographs, visible region of flame became longer due to increasing central direction flux. But as strengthed turbulent intensity, visible region of flame turned to shorter and reaction occurred efficiently. As strengthened turbulent intensity of mixture with increasing flux of central direction, maximum fluctuating temperature region moved to radial direction and fluctuation of temperature became lower. The reason is influx of central direction which caused flame zone to move toward radial direction, to maintain flame zone stable and to make flame scale smaller.

C/SiC composites were prepared by boron nitride (BN)-assisted liquid silicon infiltration (LSI), and their anti-oxidation and mechanical properties were investigated. The microstructures, bulk densities, and porosities of the C/SiC composites demonstrated that the infiltration of liquid silicon into the composites improved them, because the layered-structure BN worked as a lubricant. Increasing the amount of BN improved the anti-oxidation of the prepared C/SiC composites. This synergistic effect was induced by the assistance of BN in the LSI. More thermally stable SiC was formed in the composite, and fewer pores were formed in the composite, which reduced inward oxygen diffusion. The mechanical strength of the composite increased up to the addition of 3% BN and decreased thereafter due to increased brittleness from the presence of more SiC in the composite. Based on the anti-oxidation and mechanical properties of the prepared composites, we concluded that improved anti-oxidation of C/SiC composites can be achieved through BN-assisted LSI, although there may be some degradation of the mechanical properties. The desired anti-oxidation and mechanical properties of the composite can be achieved by optimizing the BN-assisted LSI conditions.

Biodegradable poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles were developed for sustained delivery of water-soluble macromolecules. PLGA nanoparticles were fabricated by spontaneous emulsification solvent diffusion method generating negatively charged particles and heterogeneous size distribution. As a model drug, blue dextran was encapsulated in PLGA nanoparticles. In addition, nanoparticles were also prepared with varying ratio of poloxamer 188 (P188) and poloxamer 407 (P407), and coating with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). Then, the particle size, zeta potential and encapsulation efficiency of nanoparticles containing blue dextran were studied. In vitro release of blue dextran from nanoparticles was also investigated. The surface and morphology of nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In case of nanoparticles prepared with PLGA, P407, and different organic solvents, particle size was in the range of $230{\sim}320\;nm$ and zeta potentials of nanoparticles were negative. The SEM images showed that ethyl acetate is suitable for the formulation of PLGA nanoparticles with good appearance. Moreover, ethyl acetate showed higher encapsulation efficiency than other solvents. The addition of P188 to formulation did not affect the particle size of PLGA nanoparticles but altered the release patterns of blue dextran from nanoparticles. However, PVA, as a coating material, altered the particle size with increasing the PVA concentration. The nanoparticles were physically stable in the change of particle size during long-term storage. From the results, the PLGA nanoparticles prepared with various contents of poloxamers and PVA, could modulate the particles size of nanoparticles, in vitro release pattern, and encapsulation of water-soluble macromolecules.

We have studied the transdermal flux of prostaglandin $E_1$ $(PGE_1)$ from a hydrogel patch through hairless mouse skin, to test the possibility of developing a transdermal delivery system. Karaya gum patch containing $PGE_1$ was prepared by casting method. $PGE_1$ was stable in the patch for 10 weeks. The effect of current application, enhancer (propylene glycol monolaurate : PGML), adhesive and patch thickness on the flux was studied using side-by-side diffusion cell. Passive flux of $PGE_1$ was negligible. Cathodal delivery increased the flux about 20 fold. As the concentrations of PGML increased, flux increased. When 5% PGML was used as the enhancer, maximum flux by cathodal iontophoresis was $55\;{\mu}g/cm^2\;hr$. It increased about 2 folds to $100\;{\mu}g/cm^2\;hr$, when the amount of PGML used was 9%. Large increase in flux and the decrease in time to reach maximum flux were observed when the skin was pretreated with neat PGML (maximum flux obtained was about $200\;{\mu}g/cm^2\;hr$). Use of adhesive decreased the flux significantly. To the contrary of our expectation, increase in current density decreased the flux. These flux data together with the stability data indicate that, though the onset of sufficient delivery occur after 1-2 hours of application, therapeutic amount of $PGE_1$ can be delivered through skin using iontophoresis and penetration enhancer.

In our previous work on levodopa delivery at pH 2.5 using iontophoresis, we found that cathodal delivery showed higher permeation than anodal delivery and electroosmosis plays more dominant role than electrorepulsion. In this work, we studied the transdermal transport of levodopa at very low pH (pH=1.0) where all levodopa molecules are cations, and evaluated some factors which affect the transdermal transport. The transport study at pH 2.5 was also conducted for comparison. The contribution of electrorepulsion and electroosmosis on flux was also evaluated. Using stable aqueous solution, the effect of electrode polarity, current density, current type and drug concentration on transport through skin were studied and the results were compared. We also investigated the iontophoretic flux from hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) hydrogel containing levodopa. In vitro flux study was performed at $33^{\circ}C$, using side-by-side diffusion cell. Full thickness hairless mouse skin were used. Current densities applied were 0.2, 0.4 or $0.6\;mA/cm^2$. Contrary to the pH 2.5 result, anodal delivery showed higher flux, indicating that electrorepulsion is the dominant force for the transport, overcoming the electroosmotic flow which is acting against the direction of electrorepulsion. Cumulative amount of levodopa transported was increased as the current density or drug concentration was increased. When amount of current dose was constant, continuous current was more beneficial than pulsed current in promoting levodopa permeation. Similar transport results were obtained when hydrogel was used as the donor phase. These results indicate that iontophoretic delivery of zwitterion such as levodopa is much complicated than that can be expected from small ionic molecules. The results also indicate that, only at very low pH like pH 1.0, electrorepulsion can be the dominant force over the electroosmosis in the levodopa transport.

N형 InGaAs에 대한 Pd/Si/Pd/Ti/Au 오믹 접촉의 급속 열처리 조건에 따른 오믹 특성을 조사하였다. $450^{\circ}C$까지의 열처리 동안에 전반적으로 우수한 오믹 특성을 나타내어 $400^{\circ}C$, 20초의 급속 열처리 조건에서 최저 $3.9\times10^{-7}\Omega\textrm{cm}^2$ 의 접촉 비저항을 나타내었다. 이는 열처리에 의해 생성된 Pd-Si계 화합물의 형성 및 Si의 InGaAs 표면으로의 확산과 관련이 있었다. 그러나 $400^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 시간을 30초 이상으로 연장할 경우 접촉 비저항이 low-$10^{-6}\Omega \textrm{cm}^2$ 으로 약간 증가하였고, 열처리 조건을 425~$450^{\circ}C$/10초로 변화시킬 경우 high-$10^{-7}$~low-$10^{-6}\Omega \textrm{cm}^2$으로 약간 증가하였다. 이는 오믹 재료와 InGaAs의 반응에 의해 Pd-Ga계 화합물이 형성된 것과 관련이 있었다. 고온 열처리 후에도 오믹 재료와 InGaAs의 평활한 계면을 유지하면서 우수한 오믹 특성을 나타내어, 화합물 반도체 소자의 오믹 접촉으로 충분히 응용 가능하다고 판단된다.

According to an increasing demand of political support and development on renewable energy as a solution for the energy problem in Korea, the government has established a goal to raise renewable energy supply from 2.27% to 5% until 2011. Especially in the case of public building in which energy use is in great demand, it would bring a great advantage to develop and utilize the Photovoltaic System as an electric energy and Geothermal Heat Pump System as a thermal energy. On the occasion of Photovoltaic System, Photovoltaic module can be used as an architectural material so that it can reduce construction cost and when we use solar energy, it is possible to make building's own power supply. As for Geothermal Heat Pump System, It can be used infinitely as long as the solar energy exist and operation cost is cheap and yearly efficiency is stable. However, we need to make a plan to reduce early investment expanses for these two renewable energy systems and to expand a diffusion rate as we develop a competitive domestic technology level. So in this study, we are going to perform evaluation of economical efficiency according to the introduction of Photovoltaic System and Geothermal Heat Pump System in public buildings which will be built up inside of Daegu Sin-seo innovation city. As a first step, we will investigate present installation condition of these two renewable energy systems and based upon that, will seek efficient introduction program of renewal energy systems that can be applied in public buildings.

본 연구는 Navier-Stokes 식의 모형방정식으로 이류 및 확산거동을 갖는 선형화된 Burgers 방정식과 비선형 형태의 Burgers 방정식을 선택하여, 이에 대한 유한차분법과 유한해석법의 수치해를 해석해와 비교하여 봄으로써, 유한해석법의 응용성에 대해 고찰한 것이다. 본 연구를 통하여 얻어진 성과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. Burgers 방정식 및 선형화된 Burgers 방정식의 정상상태의 해석해를 사용하여 두 수치기법에 따른 수치해를 비교해 본 결과, 해석해와의 근사정도를 동일 기준 하에서 살펴볼 때, 유한해석법이 유한차분법보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다. Burgers 방정식의 비정상상태의 해석해에 대한 정확성 또한 유한해석법이 보다 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 유한해석법은 유한차분법의 사용시 격자 크기의 선택에 따라 해의 수렴과정에서 발생할 수 있는 위상오차에 기인한 진동현상이 전혀 발생하지 않는다는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 따라서 유한해석법은 수치기법상 위상오차로부터 자유로운 안정된 해석기법이라고 판단된다.
