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.

A dual loop waste heat recovery system with Rankine steam cycles for the improvement of fuel efficiency of gasoline vehicles has been investigated. A high temperature loop (HT loop) only recovers the heat of the exhaust gas. A low temperature loop (LT loop) recovers the residual heat from the HT loop, the coolant heat and the remaining exhaust gas heat. The two separate loops are coupled with a heat exchanger. This paper has dealt with a layout of the dual loop system, the review of the working fluids, and the design of the cycle. The design point and the target heat recovery of the HT boiler, a core part of a HT loop, have been presented. The prototype of the HT boiler was evaluated by experiment. For the performance evaluation of the HT boiler, inlet temperature of the HT boiler working fluid was set equal to the temperature degree of sub-cool of $5^{\circ}C$ at the condensing pressure. The exit condition was the degree of super-heat set at $5^{\circ}C$. The characteristics of the HT boiler such as heat recovery and pressure drops of fluids were evaluated with varying flow rates and inlet temperatures of exhaust gas under various evaporating pressure conditions.

Size controlled, $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ cathode powders were prepared by co-precipitation method followed by heat treatment at temperatures between 750 and $850^{\circ}C$. The synthesized samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical performance. The synthesized $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ after calcined at $750^{\circ}C$ has a good electrochemical performance with an initial discharge capacity of $190mAhg^{-1}$ and good capacity retention of 100% after 30 cycles at 0.1C ($17mAg^{-1}$). The capacity retention of $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ after calcined at $750^{\circ}C$ is better than that at 800 and $850^{\circ}C$ without capacity loss at various high C rates. This is ascribed to the minimized cation disorder, a higher conductivity, and higher lithium ion diffusion coefficient ($D_{Li}$) observed in this material. In the differential scanning calorimetry DSC profile of the charged sample, the generation of heat by exothermic reaction was decreased by calcined at high temperature, and this decrease is especially at $850^{\circ}C$. This behavior implies that the high temperature calcinations of $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ prevent phase transitions with the release of oxygen.

남극대륙은 바람이 강하며 지구상에서 가장 기온이 낮고 건조한 극한환경 조건으로서 지표면의 암석은 동결-융해에 의해 암석의 역학적 특성이 변해왔다. 극지 암석의 지반공학적 특성을 이해하기 위하여 남극에서 직접 암석을 채취하여 암석의 물리적 역학적 특성을 분석하였다. 서남극 케이프 벅스 및 동남극 테라노바 만의 암석은 국내 편마암이 보이는 대표적인 물성 값의 범위내에 존재하고 있었으며, 케이프 벅스의 노출된 암석이 테라노바 만에 비하여 암반 강도가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 테라노바 만의 지표에 노출된 암석의 평균 흡수율은 0.56%, 평균 P파 속도는 3,717m/s, 일축압축 강도는 109MPa로 측정되었으며, 시추조사로부터 채취한 심도 2.9m 이상의 암석 평균 흡수율은 0.24%, 평균 P파 속도는 4,670m/s, 일축압축 강도는 88MPa로 측정되었다. 테라노바 만의 지표면에 노출된 암석과 심부에서 채취한 암석을 비교한 결과, 노출된 암석은 동결-융해의 영향으로 판단되는 역학적 특성 변화는 나타나지 않았으나 흡수율-P파 속도 변화의 물리적 특성 변화는 잘 나타났다.

The interaction of ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) with zircaloy-4 (Zry-4) was investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) methods. In order to study the surface chemistry of NH4OH/Zry-4 system, the binding energies of N1s, O1s and Zr3d electrons were monitored. The N1s peak intensity was remarkably increased by following cycles of Ar+ sputtering of NH4OH dosed Zry-4 surface at room temperature. Because the nitrogen stayed under the subsurface region was diffused out onto the Zry-4 surface after oxygen concentration was decreased. These could be occurred after the surface oxygen was diffused into the bulk or desorbed out from the surface until Ar+ fluence was 6.0 × 1016 Ar+/cm2 then the surface was relatively atomic deficient state. The O1s peak intensity was decreased by stepwise Ar+ sputtering. After many cycles of Ar+ sputtering, the peak intensities of Zr3d peaks did not change much but the shape of the peak clearly did change. This implies that the oxidation state of zirconium was changed during stepwise Ar+ sputtering of NH4OH/Zry-4. The Zr3d peak intensity of zirconium nitride (ZrNx) increased as the intensity of N1s (from zirconium nitride) increased but the Zr3d peak intensity of zirconium oxide (ZrOx) decreased due to the depopulation of the oxygen species on the surface region. We also observed that the peak intensity of Zr4+ was nearly same after Ar+ sputtering processes but the peak intensity of metallic zirconium increased compared to that of before the sputtering process was performed.

미생물에 의한 광물합성은 지화학적 순환 및 미생물의 독성에 대한 저항기작을 위해 주로 연구되어져 왔으나 본 논문에서는 NanoFermentation을 통한 경제적, 친환경적, 저에너지, 대량생산이 가능한 나노입자 크기의 자철석 합성연구를 소개하고 또한 초상자성(Superparamagnetism)과 준강자성(Ferrimagnetism)을 결정짓는 입자크기에 대한 조절인자를 살펴보고자 한다. NanoFermentation을 통한 자철석의 합성 시 입자 크기의 조절 인자는 선택된 미생물 종 및 배양 온도, 배양액의 화학적 조성, 배양기간, 치환된 원소의 조성 및 함량, 자철석 전조물질(Precursor)의 형태, 반응 부피의 증가 및 자철석 전조물질의 농도와 같은 조건들의 조합에 의해 결정되어지며 주로 핵형성 및 결정 성장의 균형에 의해 조절된다. 생광물화 작용을 통한 무기재료의 합성 연구는 앞서 언급한 지표에서의 원소의 순환 및 미생물 생리학적 측면뿐만 아니라 최종 산물인 나노입자의 대량 생산을 통해 재료학적 응용 분야에도 많은 파급 효과가 예상된다.

본 논문은 동결과 융해가 고분자 전해질 연료전지 내의 기체확산층에 미치는 영향에 대해 X-선 단층 촬영법을 이용하여 수행한 실험적 연구이다. 고분자 전해질 연료전지는 외부 온도가 0 도 이하가 되면 내부의 물이 동결되며, 외부 온도가 0 도 이상으로 상승하면 다시 녹는 과정을 겪게 된다. 이 과정은 연료전지의 내부 구조에 변형을 야기하고 이로 인해 연료전지의 전력과 수명의 감소를 야기하게 된다. 기체확산층은 연료전지 내부에서 가장 두꺼운 다공성층이며, 이로 인해 가장 많은 변형이 발생된다. 본 연구에서는 포항 방사광 가속기의 X-선 단층 촬영법을 이용하여 물의 동결과 융해 과정이 기체확산층의 내부 구조에 미치는 변화를 관찰하였다. 이 기체확산층의 구조 변화가 고분자 전해질 연료전지의 전력 생산과 수명에 미치는 영향에 관해 논의하였다.

The amylosucrase encoding gene from Deinococcus geothermalis DSM 11300 (DgAS) was codon-optimized and expressed in Escherichia coli. The enzyme was employed for biosynthesis of three different dihydroxybenzene glucosides using sucrose as the source of glucose moiety. The reaction parameters, including temperature, pH, and donor (sucrose) and acceptor substrate concentrations, were optimized to increase the production yield. This study demonstrates the highest ever reported molar yield of hydroquinone glucosides 325.6 mM (88.6 g/l), resorcinol glucosides 130.2 mM (35.4 g/l) and catechol glucosides 284.4 mM (77.4 g/l) when 400 mM hydroquinone, 200 mM resorcinol and 300 mM catechol, respectively, were used as an acceptor substrate. Furthermore, the use of commercially available amyloglucosidase at the end of the transglycosylation reaction minimized the gluco-oligosaccharides, thereby enhancing the target productivity of mono-glucosides. Moreover, the immobilized DgAS on Amicogen LKZ118 beads led to a 278.4 mM (75.8 g/l), 108.8 mM (29.6 g/l) and 211.2 mM (57.5 g/l) final concentration of mono-glycosylated product of hydroquinone, catechol and resorcinol at 35 cycles, respectively, when the same substrate concentration was used as mentioned above. The percent yield of the total glycosides of hydroquinone and catechol varied from 85% to 90% during 35 cycles of reactions in an immobilized system, however, in case of resorcinol the yield was in between 65% to 70%. The immobilized DgAS enhanced the efficiency of the glycosylation reaction and is therefore considered effective for industrial application.

In this study, heating performance of the air-cooled heat pump with vapor-injection (VI) cycles, re-heater and solar heat storage tank was investigated experimentally. Devices used in the experiment were comprised of a VI compressor, re-heater, economizer, variable evaporator, flat-plate solar collector for hot water, thermal storage tank, etc. As working fluid, refrigerant R410A for heat pump and propylene glycol (PG) for solar collector were used. In this experiment, heating performance was compared by three cycles, A, B and C. In case of Cycle B, heat exchange was conducted between VI suction refrigerant and inlet refrigerant of condenser by re-heater (Re-heater in Fig. 3, No. 3) (Cycle B), and Cycle A was not use re-heater on the same operating conditions. In case of Cycle C, outlet refrigerant from evaporator go to thermal storage tank for getting a thermal energy from solar thermal storage tank while re-heater also used. As a result, Cycle C reached the target temperature of water in a shorter time than Cycle B and Cycle A. In addition, it was founded that, as for the coefficient of heating performance($COP_h$), the performance in Cycle C was improved by 13.6% higher than the performance of Cycle B shown the average $COP_h$ of 3.0 and by 18.9% higher than the performance of Cycle A shown the average $COP_h$ of 2.86. From this results, It was confirmed that the performance of heat pump system with refrigerant re-heater and VI cycle can be improved by applying solar thermal energy as an auxiliary heat source.

The design of a fuel cells stack is important to get optimal output power. This study focuses on the evaluation of fuel cell system for unmaned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Low temperature proton exchange membrane (LTPEM) fuel cells are the most promising energy source for the robot applications because of their unique advantages such as high energy density, cold startup, and quick response during operation. In this paper, a 600 W open cathode LTPEM fuel cell was tested to evaluate the performance and to determine optimal operating conditions. The open cathode design reduces the overall size of the system to meet the requirement for robotic application. The cruise power requirement of 600 W was supported entirely by the fuel cell while the additional power requirements during takeoff was extended using a battery. A peak of power of 900 W is possible for 10 mins with a lithium polymer (LiPo) battery. The system was evaluated under various load cycles as well as start-stop cycles. The system response from no load to full load meets the robot platform requirement. The total weigh of the stack was 2 kg, while the overall system, including the fuel processing system and battery, was 4 kg.
