This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Vapor-dam treatment on drying drying rates, prevention of checks and V-shaped split during air circulating oven drying bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens Mazel et Z) tube. It was shown that the drying time from green to around 7~8 % of moisture content was required less as drying schedule was more severe, and distinctly dominated by the drying rate during the initial drying stage. Area shrinkages in cross section and thickness shrinkages measured during air circulating oven drying test were very large. Surface checks and V-shaped splits were occurred in untreated samples just after the beginning of drying, while sixty seven percentages of all the Vapor-dam treated samples could be produced without drying defects. The V-shaped splits occurred in the Vapor-dam treated samples were influenced more by the sealing of the vapor evaporation through the cross section than drying schedule.

This study deals with the heat-treatment technique of SM45C steel with respect to less of deformation in control. The whole process for the production of landing gear must go through with uniformally controlled heat treatment, where as most deformation usually occur in nonuniform cooling environment. When a heated metal is submerged into a certain quenchant, the rate of cooling rapidity can be measured rather slow during the early stage of the procedure due to an Occurrence of a vapor blanked. As the additional course of cooling action is applied and the vapor from a vapor blanked is destroyed simultaneously, the speed of cooling promptness can be considered rather swift. The object of this study is to control the certain deformations as in the procedure of a heat treatment for landing gear by analyzing and improving the conditions of different substance of quenching liquids. Several noticeable curves indicating the temperature variation on the ap-plied metals during the cooling procedures, along with detectable rates of water verses oil and that of different polymer solutions are illustrated.

Following Silicon Carbide, single crystal diamond continues to attract attention as a next-generation semiconductor substrate material. In addition to excellent physical properties, large area and productivity are very important for semiconductor substrate materials. Research on the increase in area and productivity of single crystal diamonds has been carried out using various devices such as HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) and MPECVD (Microwave Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition). We hit the limits of growth rate and internal defects. However, HFCVD (Hot Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition) can be replaced due to the previous problem. In this study, HFCVD confirmed the distance between the substrate and the filament, the accompanying growth rate, the surface shape, and the Raman shift of the substrate after vapor deposition according to the vapor deposition temperature change. As a result, it was confirmed that the difference in the growth rate of the single crystal substrate due to the change in the vapor deposition temperature was gained up to 5 times, and that as the vapor deposition temperature increased, a large amount of polycrystalline diamond tended to be generated on the surface.

In this study the effect of heartwood-coating (HCO), vapor-dam (VD), bark-remaing (BR) and bark-remaining- coating (BRC) treatments were evaluated during air circulating oven-drying of hollowed round-post of Korean red pine. Hollowed round-post could be dried from the green condition to approximately 6% MC within 84 to 156 hours for the UC, HCO and VD specimens and it took 72 to 240 hours to about 8% MC, which is recommended as the indoor in-use MC. The temperatures in the hole of the Control (UC) and HCO specimens constantly showed a higher-leveled distribution pattern than those inside wood. The vapor pressure in the hole of the UC, HCO and BR specimens was higher than that inside wood and showed difference as highest value of about 20 mbar. The surface checks of all specimens were mild and were observed in increasing order of BRC, BR, UC, VD and HCO specimens.

The mechanism behind super-filling of high-aspect-ratio features with Cu by catalyst-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (CECVD) coupled with plasma treatment is described and the metrology required to predict the filling feasibility is identified and quantified. The reaction probability of a Cu precursor was determined as a function of substrate temperature. Iodine adatoms are deactivated by the bombardment of energetic particles and also by the overdeposition of sputtered Cu atoms during the plasma treatment. The degree of deactivation of adsorbed iodine was experimentally quantified. The quantified factors, reaction probability and degree of deactivation of iodine were introduced to the simulation for the prediction of the trench filling aspect by CECVD coupled with plasma treatment. Simulated results show excellent agreement with the experimental filling aspects.

Recently, consumers have gained an interest in natural and minimally processed foods, inciting the food industry to consider using of natural products as preservatives. Strawberries are a widely consumed fruit but are also highly perishable. Therefore, in this study, the physicochemical properties of strawberries (Fragaria×ananassa) were evaluated after a 12-h treatment with lemon essential oil (Citrus×limon) or cinnamon essential oil (Cinnamomum cassia) vapor during storage at 22℃ for 4 days in an accelerated shelf-life study and 4℃ for 18 days in a validation study. Weight loss was blunted in fruit treated with oil vapor during the first days of storage (p<0.05). Lemon essential oil delayed fruit darkening (p<0.05) but reduced the firmness of strawberries (p<0.05). Strawberries treated with cinnamon essential oil had a higher concentration of reducing sugars (p<0.05), and a decrease of 16.7% visible decay, although the difference was insignificant. Oil vapor treatment did not alter the pH, organic acid content, or soluble solid content during storage compared to the control. Since lemon and cinnamon essential oils have well-documented antimicrobial properties, they may be suitable for the natural preservation of fruit. This study provides new information on using essential oil vapor treatment to preserve fruits, and potentially decrease fruit loss and waste.

In this study, the variation in surface morphology of copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) thin films treated with a flow of acetone vapor assisted by nitrogen carrier gas was investigated. The CuPc nanorods with similar dimensions were well dispersed throughout the whole film surfaces after ~20 min. of treatment. However, the electronic absorption spectra only changed slightly, which indicates that molecular stacking was not altered during treatment. This treating method is simple and more advantageous compared to other solvent treating technologies such as mixed solvent spray treatment using organic solvents and water since it requires relatively mild treating conditions and does not need the presence of water.

A rigorous study of single droplet vaporization under quiescent high pressure atmosphere is attempted adopting method of flash evaporation calculation for vapor-liquid equilibrium. Results due to flash method shows excellent agreement with measurement. Also shown is the present model fairly capable of depicting transients of droplet vaporization under high pressure environment, such as ambient gas solubility, property variation, and multicomponent transports. Systematic treatment of these effects with emphasis on vapor-liquid phase equilibrium revealed; conventional treatment for subcritical droplet vaporization, such as $d^2$-law, leads to erroneous prediction of droplet history, augmented gas solubility is significant under supercritical pressure, and vaporization rate proportionally increase with pressure.
