When taking X-rays, various auxiliary tools were used to fix a patient's exact shooting position and posture. In this study, we evaluated the usefulness of carbon fiber reinforced plastics(CFRP) 3K as a material of auxiliary tools by comparing poly methyl metha acrylate(PMMA), polycarbonate(PC), and CFRP 3K each of which has high radiolucency. X-ray radiolucencies were measured by stacking 1 mm panels of each material, and contrast to noise ratio(CNR) and signal to noise ratio(SNR) of images of each material were measured by comparing with None, which stands for images that are taken without any material. All three materials showed over 90% X-ray radiolucencies within 2 ㎜ thickness, and there was no significant difference. PC, PMMA and CFRP 3K had high CNR and SNR in order, and CFRP 3K showed the closest CNR and SNR to those of None. While taking X-rays, by using CFRP 3K material within 2 ㎜ thickness as a material of auxiliary tools, which are used to reduce re-shooting and X-ray exposure by fixing a patient's exact shooting position and posture and improve the quality of medical images, a high X-ray radiolucency of over 90% would be obtained, and the influence on the image could be minimized.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the nitrification characteristics of biological aerated filter (BAF) packed with ceramic media, especially focusing on nitrite build-up during nitrification. When increasing the nitrogen load above $1.63kgNH_4{^+}-N/m^3{\cdot}d$, ammonium removal efficiency decreased to less than 60% and the nitrite ratio ($NO_2{^-}-N/NO_x-N$) of higher than 75% was achieved due to the inhibitory free ammonia (FA, $NH_3-N$) concentration and oxygen limitation. FA inhibition, however, is not recommended strategy to promote nitrite build-up since FA concentration in the reactor is coupled with decreased ammonium removal efficiency. Nitrite ratio in the effluent was also affected by aeration rate and influent ammonium concentration. Ammonium oxidation was enhanced at a higher aeration rate regardless of influent ammonium concentration but, the nitrite ratio was dependent on both aeration rate and influent ammonium concentration. While a higher nitrite ratio was obtained when BAFs were fed with $50mgNH_4{^+}-N/L$ of influent, the nitrite ratio significantly decreased for a greater influent concentration of $200-300mgNH_4{^+}-N/L$. Taken together, aeration rate, influent ammonium concentration and FA concentrations kept in the BAF were found to be critical variables for nitrite accumulation in the BAF system.

Numerical simulations of freely propagating flames burning $H_2/HCl/Air$ Air mixtures were performed at atmospheric pressure in order to understand the effect of hydrogen chloride on flame structures. The chemical and physical effects of hydrogen chloride on flame structures were observed. A chemical kinetic mechanism was developed, which involved 26 gas-phase species and 198 forward elementary reactions. Under several equivalence ratios the flame speeds were calculated and compared with those obtained from the experiments, the results of which were in good agreement. As hydrogen chloride as additive was added into $H_2/Air$ flame, the flame speed, radical concentration and NO production rate were decreased. The chemical effect of hydrogen chloride caused the reduction of radical concentration, and then the decrease of the net rate of NO production. It was found that the influence in the reduction of $EI_{NO}$ with the addition of hydrogen chloride was attributed more due to the chemical effect than the physical effect.

Samples of ($Bi_{2-x}Sb_x)PbSr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_y$, compositions with x=0.0, 0.1, and 0.2 were prepared by solid-state reaction. The solubility of Sb into the 2223 phase is lower than 0.05 for the ratio of Sb/Bi. The lack of stability of the Sb-substituted $Bi_2O_2$ double layers is likely to cause the solubility low. There is no great dependence of lattice parameters on the Sb-content, and bonds around the square-pyramidal Cu atom are not affected by the $Sb^{3+}$ ion substituted. The superconducting transition temperature of this system is decreased gradually with increase of Sb, which is tentatively attributable to the perturbation of the Bi 6p-O 2p band and/or to the low volume fraction of the 2223 phase.

본 연구에서는 광화학 대기질 모델인 CMAQ을 활용해 화력발전소 배출량 제거에 따른 O3 농도의 변화 특성을 분석하였다. 하동 화력발전소를 대상으로 주변 지역의 O3 농도 변화에 대한 발전소 배출량의 영향을 조사하기 위해 하동 화력발전소의 배출량 제거 전과 후의 CMAQ 수치 모의를 수행하였다. 수치 모의 결과 O3의 주요 전구 물질인 NOx (-18.87%)와 VOCs (-11.27%)의 농도가 감소한 반면에 O3 (25.24%)의 농도는 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 화력발전소 배출량 제거로 인한 NO와 O3 농도의 상대적인 변화를 비교해 본 결과 높은 음의 상관관계(R= -0.72)를 나타내는 것이 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 O3의 농도 증가가 NO 농도 감소로 인한 O3의 적정 효과 완화로 설명 될 수 있음을 의미한다. 해당 지역의 O3의 농도 증가가 NO의 농도 감소에 주로 영향을 받은 이유는 해당 지역이 VOC-limited (i.e., NOx-saturated) 지역이기 때문으로 분석되었다. 이러한 결과는 특정 지역의 O3의 농도가 단순히 배출량의 증감에 따라 비례하게 나타나지 않을 수 있다는 것을 암시한다. 따라서 화력발전소 배출량 저감 조치로 인한 대기 중 O3 농도 개선 효과를 정확히 예측 및 평가하기 위해서는 지역 별 O3의 생성 및 소멸 기작에 대한 심도 있는 이해가 필요하다.

This numerical study was analyzed to predict the flammability limits of biodiesel and diesel fuels in the high temperature and pressure conditions. To achieve this, the biodiesel fuel was simulated with the chemical species of n-heptane (n-C₇H₁₆), methyl decanoate (C₁₁H₂₂O₂), and methyl-9-decenoate (C₁₁H₂₀O₂), and the diesel fuel was substituted the chemical species of n-heptane. The closed 0-D homogeneous reactor model which was employed the 1100 K of ambient temperature and 35 atm of ambient pressure was used for the simulation of constant volume combustion, and the equivalence ratio was changed from 0.3 to 2.5 conditions. In addition, a comparative analysis study was conducted with the results of HCCI engine simulation and flammability limits according to the changes of equivalence ratio. The results of combustion temperature, pressure, and ignition delay were increased when the equivalence ratio elevated from 0.3 to 1.3 conditions because the increase in fuel oxidation rate affects the chemical reaction of the overall combustion process. Furthermore, the CO and NO_X production under the rich combustion conditions are considered to have a trade off relationship since the OH radicals and O₂ chemical species are greatly affected the CO and NO_X production and oxidation processes.

In an atempt to elucidate further physicochemical properties of furosemide-PVP coprecipitates, extensive investigations such as TLC, UV,IR, NMR, X-ray diffraction, TGA and DTA studies were carried out for the furosemide test systems. X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the pure furosemide and the furosemide contained within a physical mixture were crystalline in nature. However, there was no crystallinity evident in the 1:5 furosemide-PVP 40,000 coprecipitate system, even after standing for two years. The various ratio furosemide-PVP 40,000 coprecipitate systems revealed that the coprecipitate containing a greater amount of PVP 40,000 than that of furosemide showed a crystalline state of furosemide and that the minimum amounts of PVP to make amorphous form of furosemide was 1:1 ratio of furosemide to PVP. From the furosemide-PVP coprecipitate systems with PVP of different molecular weights of 10,000, 40,000 and 360,000, all the 1:1 ratio coprecipitates did not exhibit any crystallinity of furosemide, whereas all the 2:1 ratio coprecipitates showed a presence of crystalline furosemide. All the coprecipitated preparations with PEG 4,000 and with PEG 6,000 showed the diffraction peaks indicating the presence of crystalline furosemide. The comparison of infrared spectra of the physical mixture and the coprecipitate showed an interaction such as association between the functional groups of furosemide and PVP in the molecular level, whereas the studies by TLC, UV and NMR showed its dissociation in methanol solution. The weight losses in TGA curves showed all the same patterns. However, a little different transition form in DTA thermograms was shown between the physical mixture and the coprecipitate, indicating the different thermal property.
