  • A calculation model of reservoir pressure field distribution around multiple production wells in a heavy oil reservoir is established, which can overcome the unreasonable uniform-pressure value calculated by the traditional mathematical model in the multiwell mining areas. A calculating program is developed based on the deduced equations by using Visual Basic computer language. Based on the proposed mathematical model, the effects of drainage rate and formation permeability on the distribution of reservoir pressure are studied. Results show that the reservoir pressure drops most at the wellbore. The farther the distance away from the borehole, the sparser the isobaric lines distribute. Increasing drainage rate results in decreasing reservoir pressure and bottom-hole pressure, especially the latter. The permeability has a significant effect on bottom hole pressure. The study provides a reference basis for studying the dynamic pressure field distribution before thermal recovery technology in heavy oilfield and optimizing construction parameters.

  • Milk is a food with high nutritional value as it contains abundant water, proteins, vitamins, lactose, fat, minerals, enzymes, etc. However, in order to make milk suitable for intake, it should be thermally treated to eliminate microbiologically hazardous factors. Heat treatment is an essential sanitation process for milk, but various precautions must be taken in order to process and preserve it. Therefore, various techniques should be developed to minimize the nutrient loss and to ensure that milk is safe for consumption, conservation, and distribution. However, the existing thermal pasteurization methods are harmful and increase the nutrient loss; moreover, no new thermal pasteurization methods are being researched that are safe for the human health and minimize the nutrient loss. Hence, this study aims to review new processes for thermal (low temperatures) and no thermal pasteurization methods that can minimize the nutrient loss during milk pasteurization.

  • Generally, as corrosive protection processing of a steel structure, zinc galvanizing and heavy duty coating paint are applied. However, zinc galvanizing has the difficulty of restriction of a size, or on-site construction. Moreover, heavy duty coating paint has a problem with many administrative and maintenance expenses with short problem of adhesion, corrosion generating of a damage portion, and maintenance management cycle. In this study, a salt water spray test, CASS test, and the electrochemistry examination were carried out for the thermal metal spray method of construction for corrosive protection performance evaluation. Moreover, the corrosive protection life of a thermal metal spray method of construction was quantitatively calculated on the basis of this experiment. in consideration of LCC, the economical efficiency of a general corrosive protection method of construction and a thermal metal corrosive protection method of construction was compared. Consequently, although initial construction expense was estimated 16 to $30\%$ high, as for a thermal metal spray method of construction, it turns out that the administrative and maintenance expenses for 100 years became cheap 9.3 to 13 or more times.

  • Fluid cooling is one of the manufacturing processes used to control mechanical properties, and is recently used for hot stamping of automobile parts. The formed part at room temperature is heated and then cooled rapidly using various fluids in order to obtain better mechanical properties. The formed part may undergo excessive thermal deformation during rapid cooling. In order to predict the thermal deformation during fluid cooling, a coupled simulation of different fields is needed. In this study, cooling simulation of boron steel square sheet was performed. Material properties for the simulation were calculated from JMatPro, and three convection heat transfer coefficients such as water, oil and air were obtained from the experiments. It was found that the thermal deformation increased when the difference of cooling rate of sheet face increased, and the thermal deformation increased when the thickness of sheet decreased.

  • A making process of DSC(dye sensitized solar cell) was presented. In general, Photo electrodes of DSC was made by using colloid paste of nano $TiO_2$ and processing of Doctor-blade printing and high temperature sintering for porous structure. These methods lead to cracks on $TiO_2$ surface and ununiform of $TiO_2$ thickness. This phenomenon is one factor that makes low efficiency to cells. After $TiO_2$ printing on TCO glass, a physical vibration was adapted for reducing ununiform of $TiO_2$ thickness. And a thermal treatment at low temperature(under $75^{\circ}C$) was adapted for reducing cracks on $TiO_2$ surface. In this paper, we have designed and manufactured an ultrasonic circuit (100W, frequency and duty variable) and a thermal equipment. Then, we have optimized forcing time, frequency and duty of ultrasonic irradiation and thermal heating for surface treatment of photo-electrode of DSC. In I-V characteristic test of DSC, ultrasonic and thermal treated DSC shows 19% improved its efficiency against monolithic DSC. And it shows stability of light-harvesting from drastically change of light irradiation test.

  • The hearth roll, which transfers the cold-rolled strip sheet in a Continuous Annealing Line (CAL), is always subjected to changes in the surface temperature and subsequently experiences thermal stress in service. These variations lead to the generation of thermal cracks on the hearth roll surface as well local plastic deformation. We performed finite element analysis to predict the thermal stress changes on the hearth roll surface and designed the collar shape of the hearth roll to minimize these thermal stresses. Results show that the hearth roll with a collar having an obtuse angle is much more effective than a hearth roll with collar having a right angle when the tangential stress, which is one of main causes leading to surface cracks, is compared for the various conditions. It was found that the tangential stress and the temperature on the surface of hearth roll can be reduced by 51.9% and 26℃ if the shape of roll on collar is re-designed.

  • Although fibrous insulations are generally used with resistive insulation type, metallic insulation is proper matter to satisfy low head-loss and equipment life when considering the specific condition, especially for Nuclear power plant. Common insulation is resistance insulation with a low thermal conductivity. but RMI is made of sheet plate with low emissivity and closed air space. Thermal radiation is blocked by stainless steel with low emissivity. Thermal conductivity and thermal convection are blocked by closed air space. This study shows the changes and effects of the heat loss according to shape and method of stacking sheet plates inserted into the insulation and analyzed the most optimized way for thermal insulation performance. The result shows that using sheet plate structure through raised and protruding shape processing was the appropriate model to optimize thermal performance. Additionally, insulating performance of RMI improved by placing the sheet plate in a high temperature region intensively.

  • Myrosinases (thioglucosidases) catalyze the hydrolysis of a class of compounds called glucosinolates, of which the aglycones show various biological functions. It is often necessary to minimize the loss of myrosinase activity during thermal processing of cruciferous vegetables. Myrosinase was isolated from a popular spice, white mustard (Sinapis alba), and its thermal inactivation kinetics was investigated. The enzyme was extracted from white mustard seeds and purified by a sequential processes of ammonium sulfate fractionation, Concanavalin A-Sepharose column chromatography, and gel permeation chromatography. At least three isozymes were revealed by Concanavalin A-Sepharose column chromatography. The purity of the major myrosinase was examined by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and on-gel activity staining with methyl red. The molecular weight of the major enzyme was estimated to be 171 kDa. When the consecutive step model was used for the thermal inactivation of the major myrosinase, its inactivation energy was 44.388 kJ/mol for the early stage of destruction and 32.019 kJ/mol for the late stage of destruction. When the distinct two enzymes model was used, the inactivation energy was 77.772 kJ/mol for the labile enzyme and 95.145 kJ/mol for the stable enzyme. The thermal inactivation energies lie within energy range causing nutrient destruction on heating.
