  • The aim of this study is to predict concrete strengths by method of equivalent ages. The method of equivalent ages is to use Arrhenius equation which indicates the influence of curing temperature on the initial hydration ratio in cement. Experimental factors are in this study. The water-cement ratios of concrete mixtures are 0.60, 0.55, 0.50 and 0.45. The curing temperatures within the four chambers are 30, 20, 10 and 5$^{\circ}C$. The test results showed that equivalent age can be used to predict compressive strength of concrete at early ages.

  • A study of scaling and heat transfer has been carried out for a vertical tube evaporator in which $CaSO_4$ saturated water flows upward. Experimental apparatus including vacuum chambers and heaters has been designed and manufactured to study scaling phenomena for three different pressures(1atm, 0.27atm and 0.16atm). Overall heat transfer coefficients have been measured and shown to decrease with time as scaling proceeds. After the end of experiments, the vertical tube has been cut to measure the thickness of scale at different heights. Below the height where the bulk fluid temperature does not reach saturated temperature, the thickness of scale increases, however, beyond that height occurring saturated condition, the thickness does not vary much or even decreases a little. The measured fouling resistances also support these variations of scale thickness.

  • Recently deep interests and attraction have been paid on the generation of ozone, which is widely used to remove bed smell and to clear water. In this paper the silent discharge and ozone generation characteristics of various typed discharge chambers were investigated experimentally. Dielectric of $Al_2O_3$ was embedded in the cylindrical type of discharge chamber to improve the ozone generation rate and to stabilize the silent discharge mode of operation. Discharge current and ozone concentration depend strongly on the applied voltage and frequency.

  • The structure of a variable liquid column oscillator(a VLCO) is analogous to that of the tuned liquid column damper used to suppress oscillatory motion in large structures like tall buildings and cargo ships. The VLCO is a system absorbing high kinetic energy of accelerated motions of the multiple floating bodies in the effect of air springs occurred by installation of inner air chambers. Thus, VLCO can improve the efficiency of energy than wave energy converters of the activating object type made in Pelamis Company. In this research, the experiment was performed in two models of same draft. The one is that weights were filled, and the other is that water was filled. The numerical results were estimated by assuming that do not exist internal flow, and the results were compared with the results of experiments.

  • Dose distribution was evaluated under vaseline and thin lead used as surface bolus, in case with scattering filter and without, for 9-MeV electron using chambers in water phantom. The results were as follows: 1. The skin dose can be remarkably increased with thin lead bolus than with convensional bolus. 2. The skin dose over $110\%$ in the 0.6mm thin lead bolus compared with the maximum dose in normal irradiation, so skin burn or any other complications may be occured in patients.

  • The hydrodynamic performance of a floating-type OWC (Oscillating Water Column) chamber is studied numerically and experimentally in this study. The numerical approach based on two-dimensional linear theory of floating wave absorber was attempted to design an efficient wave energy absorber, while model test was performed in a wave basin to test a performance of designed model and validate the reliability of developed numerical code. The focus of study is placed mainly on the experimental study to evaluate the principal characteristics of the designed OWC chamber in regular waves. The effects of the variation of wave height on OWC device and of air pressure inside chamber are also presented. Finally, the measured results were compared with computed ones, and it was shown that the designed chamber works with high efficiency $(\eta_H>1$ over most of wave lengths covered by present study. It is therefore concluded that the developed code is capable of being successfully employed to design OWC chambers at various ocean environments, even though there exist some minor discrepancies between measured and computed results.

  • This study was carried out in order to estimate the effect of heat pump performance by use of thermal tank with 3 seperation plates which were able to divide thermal tank into 3 chambers that have different temperatures levels. For testing the effect of developed thermal tank which was installed for supplying the heat to the paprika greenhouse in Jinju city. The volume of thermal storage tank was designed for $110m^3$ which was able to cover 30% of heating capacity. The temperature difference was 3 degree Celcius between high temperature and low temperature when only heating circulation was made from heat pump to thermal tank. but 5.5 degree Celcius difference was made when heating circulation of heat pump to thermal thank and hot water supplying circulation of thermal tank to greenhouse was done simultaneously. As a result of this study showed that COP of heat pump was increased by 15% or more than that of using normal thermal tank because heat pump was able to take 3 ~ 5 degree Celcius lower thermal thank water constantly.

  • An experimental research program is being undertaken to develop a regeneratively-cooled experimental thrust chamber of liquid rocket engine using liquefied natural gas and liquid oxygen as propellants. Prior to firing test using a regenerative cooling with liquefied natural gas in this program, several firing tests were conducted with water as a coolant. Experimental thrust chambers with a thrust of about 10tf were developed and their firing test facility was built up. Injector used in the thrust chamber was of shear-coaxial type appropriate for propellants of gas and liquid phase and cooling channels are of milled rectangular configuration. Periodical variation of the soot deposition and discoloration was observed through an eyes' inspection on the inner wall of a combustion chamber and a nozzle after each firing test, and an intuitive concept of the periodical variation of mixture ratio near the inner wall of a combustion chamber and a nozzle at once was brought about and analyzed quantitatively. Thermal heat flux to the coolant was calculated and modified with the periodical variation model of mixture ratio, and the increment of coolant temperature at cooling channels was compared with measured one.

  • The intake towers of Buyeo W.T.P. in Keum river have being suffered from the sedimentation problems since the beginning of the operation. Impellers of the intake pumps have to the frequently changed due to the serious surface erosion. Thousands tons of sands are entrapped in the intake towers and equalization chambers of W.T.P. every year. Site surveying and numerical analysis were carried out to suggest an appropriate solution by understanding the general sedimentation regime of Keum river and causes of the sedimentation in the intake towers. Origin of the sediment could be found by the desk and site inspections. The validity of the used numerical models was examined by comparisons between the calculated bydraulic values and the measured ones during the specific periods. The design flow rate for the prediction of the future sedimentation regime of the rever was studied. The efficiency of the sediment control measures was also examined with the verified numerical models. Finally, it was found that the best solution could be a combination of three sediment control measures; increase the clearance between river bed and inlet, construct jetties at 2 kilometers upstream from the intake towers, and put vanes at the right side of the intake towers.
