The purpose of this study was to serve a standard of the good quality control and shelf-life of food and beverage served from the vending machines. So it was performed to examine the temperature (internal & external environmental, food itself), pH, Aw, POV and microbiological quality of Adlay tea and Wheat noodles served from the vending machines based on storage time in the machines. They were assessed to find the critical control point(CCP) during each of the production, delivery, purchasing phases from the vending machines. The result of this study can be summarized as follows: 1. The temperature of foods inside the vending machines was ranged from 4$0^{\circ}C$ to 45$^{\circ}C$. It was in the range of dangerous zone. The average temperature of food showed 71$^{\circ}C$ for Adlay tea and 74$^{\circ}C$ for Wheat noodles. As a result of measuring pH and Aw, they had potential danger. 2. Even though POV was low, it increased as the time passed. 3. As a result of microbial analysis, it showed that the amount of total plate count and coliforms were increased ten times after 1 day respectively. Wheat noodles' coliform and total plate counts exceeded standard value in 1 day. As a result of food poisoning bacteria, it was negative in sample against Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus.

Hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST) is used for evaluating the plasma membrane function and fertilizing ability in mammal spermatozoa. However, HOS solutions and experimental conditions have not been determined clearly for assessing canine spermatozoa. This study was conducted to examine the HOS solutions and assay conditions, including incubation time (30 to 120 min), storage temperature (4, 17 and $20^{\circ}C$), semen status (fresh and frozen). Maximum spermatozoal plasma membrane swelling was obtained in an 150 mOsm Na-citrate/Fructose solutions with an incubation time for 45 min. The storage temperature and semen status affected the percentage of HOS positive spermatozoa. The HOS test adapted to canine spermatozoa in this study was simple and highly consistent assay with good repeatability. The optimal condition of HOST in canine spermatozoa is an 150 mOsm Na-citrate/Fructose solutions with an incubation time for 45 min regardless of semen storage temperature and semen status.

The object of this study was to measure of the distortion of various dental waxes under condition simulating clinical usage. Eleven commercial product (table) including the inlay and baseplate waxes were tested, and compared in the study. Test specimens were prepared $5{\times}5{\times}65mm$. split brass mold. Placed this rod wax specimens and the brass wax distortion test mold into the water bath and tested the distortion values for waxes at $35^{\circ}C,\;40^{\cric}C,\;45^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$. Measured the distortion as the difference between the final (Df) and original (Do) distance between the ends of the specimen. Recorded Df, Do and Df-Do (Distortion) to the nearest 0.5mm. A minimum of five specimens were tested for each material. The following conclusions may be drawn from this study. 1) It can be seen that, a significant wax distortion was obtained with the temperature of forming the pattern, and the length of time and the temperature at which it was stored. 2) It was found that, when the storage time was increased, the wax distortion was correspondingly increased. At the sametime, the higher the storage time was employed, the distortion was obviously much greater. 3) It can be observed that the higher the temperature at which the wax was manipulated, the less was the resulting distortion upon storage.

Simulation study on the operating characteristics in the solar hybrid R744 heat pump system for residential applications was carried out with heat pump operating temperature, outdoor temperature and solar radiation. As a result, collector operating time is decreased by 1.5 hours due to the increase of water temperature in the heat storage tank when the heat pump operating temperature rises. Heat pump operating time is reduced by 19.4% owing to the high temperature of a heat storage tank. Besides, indoor heating time is decreased from 10.3 to 5.5 hours as the indoor temperature increases from $3^{\circ}C$ to $11^{\circ}C$. In addition to, when the solar radiation rises from 10 to 20 MJ/$m^2$, the maximum outlet temperature of a solar collector is increased from $65^{\circ}C$ to $71^{\circ}C$.

The electric power load during the summer peak time is strongly affected by cooling load, which decreases the preparation ratio of electricity and brings about the failure in the supply of electricity in the electric power system. The ice storage system and heat pump system etc. are used to settle this problem. In this study, the method of estimating temperature and humidity to forecast the cooling load of ice storage system is suggested. The method of forecasting the cooling load using neural network is also suggested. The daily cooling load is mainly dependent on actual temperature and humidity of the day. The simulation is started with forecasting the temperature and humidity of the following day from the past data. The cooling load is then simulated by using the forecasted temperature and humidity data obtained from the simulation. It was observed that the forecasted data were closely approached to the actual data.

The experiment was carried out to investigate post-irradiation storage effect which was related to temperature(i.e. at 2$^{\circ}C$, 17$^{\circ}C$ and 4$0^{\circ}C$) on wheat seeds; Weibull's Svenno, treated with gamma-ray and fast neutron. Results obtained showed that the seedling height in both radiation sources was decreased with prolongation of storage period, especially when the seeds were treated with high dosage and stored at high temperature(4$0^{\circ}C$). The results of this trial, however, showed that storage effect was influenced by irradiation dose, temperature and storage time.

The performance of the cold latent heat storage is investigated by experiment and by a simplified analytic approach. The heat storage tank has eight horizontal circular tubes and one path of refrigerant evaporating tube. The phase change material in the heat storage tank is water which is frozen by evaporating refrigerant of refrigeration system and melts by the warm air in the heat storage tank. In the experiment, the performance has been studied by the various conditions including the initial water temperature on solidification and flow rate and temperature of air. The rate of recovered heat has been simulated by a simplified model and the results shows a good agreement. In solidification process, initial water temperature causes time delay corresponding to the sensible heat and it is found that the shape of evaporator is important. In melting process, the recovered heat rate from the heat storage tank is proportional to $Re^{0.8}(T_{bi}-T_f)$ of air where $T_{bi}$ and $T_f$ indicate temperatures of inlet air and phase change, respectively. And the deminishing rate of the recovered heat is higher for the higher heat rate.

The quality changes of 'Fuyu' persimmon fruits chill-injured on tree with different time periods were evaluated during storage of 6 weeks at $0^{\circ}C$. There was no significant difference among treatments in the weight loss, which increased with storage time. Firmness was found to be very important factor determining the quality level of persimmon fruit during the storage. The increased chill-injured period decreased the firmness, indicating the rapid fruit softening. While the firmness of the persimmons not exposed to chill-injured condition was not changed significantly during the storage period, the firmness of persimmon fruits chill-injured for 1, 3, and 5 days decreased from 26.7, 16.1, 10.8 N to 18.2, 12.22, and 5.8 N for 6 weeks. The total solids content and total acidity did not significantly change during the storage period. The amount of ethylene production from the chill-injured fruits was almost 2 times higher than that without low temperature injury. The results indicated that persimmon fruit injured by low temperature exposure directly affected to the changes of its ethylene production and firmness during storage.

For improved preservation of boiled-dried anchovies, the current preservation method of corrugated-cardboard box packaging and freezing below -18$^{\circ}C$ was compared to the nylon/polyethylene(NY/PE) packaging along with cooling temperature ranging from 5$^{\circ}C$ to 1$0^{\circ}C$ as well as ambient condition for eight months by determining physicochemical quality of stored samples. Lipid oxidation of stored anchovies and their browning increased with storage time. The phenomenon was delayed under the conditions of lower temperature and air-tight packaging. As quality-indicative criteria of stored anchovies, carbonyl value(r=-0.989), browning (r=-0.949) and color a value(r=-0.989), browning(r=-0.965), Hunter's color b value(r=-0.949) and color a value(r=-0.940) showed a highly-negative correlations with organoleptic qualities of the samples. Based on the above results, air-tight packaging in a laminated film and subsequent storage at cooling temperature was found to be a possible alternative to the current freezing-storage of boiled-dried anchovies from the physicochemical point of view.
