In grinding process, the heat of $1200^{\circ}$~$1500^{\circ}$ on the grinding area between grinding wheel and workpiece is generated. It decreases the surface integrity of workpiece and causes the thermal damages such as the deformed layer, residual stress and grinding burn. Generally coolant is widely used for preventing the heat generation on the grinding area, but it deteriorates the working condition by polluting the atmosphere of workplace and in the end pollutes the environment. The grinding methods using the compressed cold air and mist are the cooling methods to substitute conventional coolant. They can decrease the environmental pollution through not using coolant any more or minimizing it. In this study, the cooling effects of grinding methods using the compressed cold air and mist have been investigated. The grinding system equipped with the water bathe and mist spray nozzle was developed. The energy partition to workpiece through measuring the temperature on the workpiece surface was calculated. The surface integrity of workpiece and thermal damage like the deformed layer were analyzed.

Organic fouling and biofouling pose a significant challenge to the membrane filtration process. Photocatalysis-membrane hybrid system is a novel idea for reducing these membranes fouling however, when $TiO_2 photocatalyst nanoparticles are used in suspension, catalyst recovery is not only imposes an extra step on the process but also significantly contributes to increased membrane resistance and reduced permeate flux. In this study, $TiO_2$ photocatalyst has been immobilized by coating on the microfiltration (MF) membrane surface to minimize organic and microbial fouling. Nano-sized $TiO_2$ was first synthesized by a sol-gel method. The synthesized $TiO_2$ was coated on a Poly Vinyl Difluoride (PVDF) membrane (MF) surface using spray coating and dip coating techniques to obtain hybrid functional composite membrane. The characteristics of the synthesized photocatalyst and a functional composite membrane were studied using numerous instruments in terms of physical, chemical and electrical properties. In comparison to the clean PVDF membrane, the $TiO_2$ coated MF membrane was found more effective in removing methylene blue (20%) and E-coli (99%).

A rapid, sensitive and specific liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of four barbiturates (phenobarbital, pentobarbital, amobarbital and secobarbital) in raw milk. The barbiturates were extracted using liquid-liquid extraction, ultrasonication and centrifugation, and purified on an SPE column. Analytes were separated by HPLC on a CSH C18 column eluted using an acetonitrile-water system with a linear gradient dilution programme, and detected by MS/MS. The recoveries of the barbiturates were 85.0-113.5%, and the intra- and inter-assay RSDs were less than 9.8% and 7.3%, respectively. The limit of detection was 5 ng/mL for all four of the barbiturates. The analytical method exhibited good linearity from 10 to 1000 ng/mL; the correlation coefficient ($r^2$) was greater than 0.9950 for each barbiturate. This method was also applied to the determination of barbiturates in real milk samples and was found to be suitable for the determination of veterinary drug residues in raw milk.

In this study, the breakup characteristics of mono disperse droplets were studied with various fuels, ethanol, diesel fuel, biodiesel fuel extracted from soybean oil, and pure water. In order to investigate the droplet behavior in air cross-flow conditions, the experimental equipment was composed of a droplet generator with an air nozzle, and a high-magnification photo detecting system. Droplets produced by the droplet generator were injected into the air stream flowing normal to a direction of liquid drop jet. Digital images of the droplet behavior in air flow field were recorded by controlling the air flow rate. From the inspections, droplet breakup mechanism is primarily classified into the two kinds of stage, first breakup stage and second breakup stage. At the first breakup stage, droplet deformation rate seems to be affected by the force induced by the surface tension and the viscosity. On the other hand, at the second breakup stage, droplet is broken up mainly induced by the surface tension, so the breakup transition can be divided by the regular Weber number.

Fast pyrolysis of biomass is one of the most promising technologies for converting biomass to liquid fuels. The pyrolysis oil, also known as the bio crude oil (BCO), have been regarded as an alternative fuel for petroleum fuels to be used in diesel engine. However, the use of BCO in diesel engine requires modifications due to low energy density, high water contents, low acidity, and high viscosity of the BCO. One of the easiest way to adopt BCO to diesel engine without modifications is the use of BCO/diesel emulsions. In this study, a diesel engine operated with diesel, bio diesel (BD), and BCO/diesel emulsion was experimentally investigated. Performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled by BCO/diesel emulsion were examined. Results showed that stable engine operation was possible with emulsion and engine output power was comparable to diesel and bio diesel operation. Long term validation of adopting BCO in diesel engine is still needed because the oil is acid, with consequent problems of corrosion especially in the injection system.

This research was carried out to find out spray characteristics of 3 types of spray nozzle to be used for greenhouse cooling. Following results were obtained from this experimental study. Water amounts sprayed with each nozzle were increased with the spraying pressure. However the increment of sprayed amount with the increase of spraying pressure were not consistent regardless of nozzle types. For the whole tested spraying pressures of nozzle-type I, II, III, the minimum droplet sizes were about 1.7~2.5$\mu$m, 1.7~2.2$\mu$m and 1.7~2.2$\mu$m, respectively, and the maximum droplet sizes were about 44~60$\mu$m, 52~71$\mu$m and 45~61$\mu$m, respectively, and the average droplet sizes were about 23~38$\mu$m, 19~24$\mu$m and 17~25$\mu$m, respectively The most appropriate spraying pressures of nozzle-type I, II, III were analyzed to be 70kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 30kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 30kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively, and their sprayed amounts were about 124mL/min, 103mL/min and 84mL/min, respectively, and average droplet sizes were 22.6$\mu$m, 21.8$\mu$m and 20.6$\mu$m, respectively. Also, with the order of nozzle-type I, II, III, droplet size distributions less than 30$\mu$m were 95.4%, 85.7% and 79.0%, respectively, and the distributions larger than 40$\mu$m were 0.2%, 1.28% and 1.67%, respectively. However most all of the droplet size were less than 50$\mu$m.

A simple and very flexible automatic dipping machine was constructed for producing functional multilayer films on wide substrates via the layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly technique. The proposed machine exhibits several features that allow a fully automated coating operation, such as various depositing recipes, control of the dipping depth and time, operating speed, and rinsing flow, air-assist drying nozzles, and an operation display. The machine uniformly dips a substrate into aqueous mixtures containing complementary (e.g., oppositely charged, capable of hydrogen bonding, or capable of covalent bonding) species. Between the dipping of each species, the sample is spray cleaned with deionized water and blow-dried with air. The dipping, rinsing, and drying areas and times are adjustable by a computer program. Graphene-based thin films up to ten-bilayers were prepared and characterized. This film exhibits the highly filled multilayer structures and low thermal resistance, indicating that the robotic dipping system is simple to produce functional thin film coatings with a variety of different layers.

In order to relieve limitation of flight operation under icing condition and verify its operation in adverse weather condition for Surion, military helicopter developed in Korea, airworthiness certification in icing condition is required. The process of Surion icing certification should be considered by implementation of four methods by step such as CFD analysis, simulated flight tests, artificial icing flight tests, and natural icing flight tests. For Surion icing flight tests, these are required 20~30 sorties and 20~23 hours in artificial icing condition; 20~30 sorties and 20~22 hours in natural icing condition. In addition, to proceed with efficient flight tests, it is necessary to implement artificial icing flight tests in LWC $0.5{\sim}1.0g/m^3;$ natural icing flight tests in less than LWC $0.5g/m^3$.

In order to develop a controlled-release oral drug delivery system (DDS) of theophylline (TP), microporous membrane-coated tablets were prepared and evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Rapidly water-soluble core tablets of TP (300 mg) were prepared by wet granulation and compression technique, Then the core tablets were spray-coated with polyvinylchloride (PVC) in which micronized sucrose particles were dispersed. Effect of formula compositions of coating suspensions on the pharmaceutical characteristics such as membrane strength and dissolution was investigated in vitro. The membranes remained unbroken in pH 1.2 buffer at $37^{\circ}C$ at least for 2 hours after the disintergration test. TP was released from the coated-released tablets at a zero-order rate over 8 hours. The release at pH 1.2 and 4.0 was similar in rate but a little more rapid than that at pH 6.8. The coated tablets were administered to three healthy male volunteers and their saliva profiles of TP were compared with those from the commercial sustained release TP tablets such as Slobid and Asconthin. Saliva TP concentrations from the coated tablets were successfully sustained over 48 hours after the dosing and were comparable to those of the commercial sustained-release tablets. The membrane-coating technique is very simple and does not need any sophisticated equipments. In this respect, the membrane-coated tablets may be superior to the commercial sustained-release tablets and this technique is worth adopting by the pharmaceutical industries.
