A computational approach of the arc quenching process in GCB was developed. it is capable to calculates the thermodynamic quantities of the gas as a function of time taking into account of all spaces concerned with the arc quenching. Basically using so-called FLIC method, this program adoptes 'Simplified Enthalpy Arc Model', which is somewhat modified. And, to examine whether our works were done properly, it was simulated the whole process of the arc quenching that is based on self-flow generation phenomena/current interruption in a thermal expansion type circuit breaker. This program was verified by experiments, both showed fairly good agreement.

A mathematical model is suggested for diagnosis on a reciprocating pump. To the end, kinematic, thermodynamic and fluidic analyses are carried out for a simplified reciprocating pump model. The pressure inside the cylinder is expressed as a function of the rotation angle of a crank axle. The mathematical model consists of one cylinder with suction and discharge valves and an accumulator. The effect of valve leakage on the discharge angle is investigated. The discharge angle difference between normal state and leakage state increases with the leakage extent.

The Transient State Theory of Significant Liquid Structure has been successfully extended to binary mixture, benzene-cyclohexane system, which gives positive deviation from Raoult's law. The partition function has been derived, and from it various thermodynamic properties, such as total and partial vapor pressures, molar volumes, and excess entropies have been calculated at the temperatures $303.15^{\circ},\;\313.15^{\circ},\;and\;343.15^{\circ}K$. The calculated values agree satisfactorily with the experimental data.

It is known that almost all cyclohexane molecules are chair form in liquid state. Therefore, only chair form is considered in formulating the partition function for liquid cyclohexane, according to the Transient State Theory of Significant Liquid Structure proposed by Pak, Ahn and Chang. The thermodynamic quantities such as molar volume, vapor pressure, entropy of vaporization and compressibility of the liquid are calculated. The results are in good agreement with experimental values.

In this work $Cd_4GeS_6:Co^{2+}$(0.5mole%) single crystals were grown by the chemical transporting reactiov(CTR) method using high purity(6N) elements. The grown single crystals crystallized in a monoclinic structure(space group Cc). The direct optical energy gap of this single crystals was found to be 2.445eV at 300K and the temperature dependence of optical energy gap was fitted well to Varshni equation. But at temperatures lower than 70K an anomalous temperature dependence of the optical energy gap was obtained. This anomalous temperature dependence accored well with the anomalous temperature dependence of the unit cell volume. Also, the entropy, enthalpy and heat capacity were deduced from the temperature dependence of optical energy gaps.

In this paper the simulation of a thermodynamic power cycle for a 4-stroke, single-cylinder, spark-ignition engine was studied. In this simulation the cylinder volume was restricted to two zones, a burnt and an unburnt zone, and the convective heat transfer from cylinder contents to surroundings was considered. The chemical species in burnt gas considered was 12 species including H$_{2}$O, H$_{2}$, OH, H, N$_{2}$, NO, N, CO$_{2}$, CO, $O_{2}$, O and Ar. Using this model, computer program for compression, ignition and expansion processes was composed and pressure, temperature and composition of cylinder gas at each crank angle were computed. The composition of CO$_{2}$, CO, $O_{2}$ in the burnt gas when exhaust valve opens, the maximum temperature, the maximum flame speed and the combustion duration were also computed as a function of equivalence ratio. The relation between burnt mass fraction and burnt volume fraction was also computed.

In this work $Cd_{4}GeSe_{6}$ and $Cd_{4}GeSe_{6}:Co^{2+}$ single crystals were grown by the chemical transport reaction method and the structure of $Cd_{4}GeSe_{6}$ and $Cd_{4}GeSe_{6}:Co$ single crystals were monoclinic structure. The temperature dependence of optical energy gap was fitted well to Varshni equation. Also, the entropy, enthalpy and heat capacity were deduced from the temperature dependence of optical energy gap.

The significant structure theory of liquids has been successfully applied to the sodium ammonia solution. In applying the theory to sodium ammonia solution, we assumed there were four species in solution, i.e., sodium cation, solvated electron, triple ion, and free electron and equilibria existed between them. Based on these assumptions, we set up the model explaining the anomalous properties of sodium ammonia solution. The partition function for sodium ammonia solution is composed of the partition functions for the above four species and also for the Debye-Huckel excess free energy term. Agreements between calculated and experimental values of the thermodynamic quantities, such as molar volume, vapor pressure, partial molar enthalpy and entropy, and chemical potential as well as viscosity are quite satisfactory.

Numerical values of thermodynamic properties such as temperature, pressure, dryness, volume, enthalpy and entropy are required in numerical analysis on evaluating the thermal performance. But the steam table itself cannot be used without modelling. From this point of view the neural network with function approximation characteristics can be an alternative. the multi-layer neural networks were made for saturated vapor region and superheated vapor region separately. For saturated vapor region the neural network consists of one input layer with 1 node, two hidden layers with 10 and 20 nodes each and one output layer with 7 nodes. For superheated vapor region it consists of one input layer with 2 nodes, two hidden layers with 15 and 25 nodes each and one output layer with 3 nodes. The proposed model gives very successful results with ${\pm}0.005%$ of percentage error for temperature, enthalpy and entropy and ${\pm}0.025%$ for pressure and specific volume. From these successful results, it is confirmed that the neural networks could be powerful method in function approximation of the steam table.

Biosorption represents a technological innovation as well as a cost effective excellent remediation technology for cleaning up radionuclides from aqueous environment. In the present study, a bacteria strain FB12 with high adsorption rate of uranium ion was isolated from the vicinity of the nuclear power plant. It was tentatively identified as Bacillus sp.FB12 according to the 16S rDNA sequencing. Efforts were made to further improve the adsorption rate and genetic stability by UV irradiation and UV-LiCl cooperative mutagenesis. The improved strain named Bacillus sp.UV32 obtains excellent genetic stability and a high adsorption rate of 95.9%. The adsorption of uranium U (VI) by Bacillus sp.UV32 from aqueous solution was examined as a function of metal ion concentration, cell concentration, adsorption time, pH, temperature, and the presence of some foreign ions. The adsorption process of U (VI) was found to follow the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. The adsorption isotherm study indicated that it preferably followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The thermodynamic parameters values calculated clearly indicated that the adsorption process was feasible, spontaneous and endothermic in nature. These properties show that Bacillus sp.UV32 has potential application in the removal of uranium (VI) from the radioactive wastewater.
