Nitrogen oxides (NOx) have recently been very influential in the generation of ultrafine dust, which is of great social interest in terms of improving the atmospheric environment. Nitrogen oxides are generated mainly by the reaction of nitrogen and oxygen in air in a combustion gas atmosphere of high temperature in a combustion apparatus such as thermal power generation. Recently, research has been conducted on the combustion that recirculates the exhaust gas to the cylindrical burner by using a piping using a Coanda nozzle. In this study, three types of burners were carried out through computational fluid analysis. Case 1 burner with the outlet of the combustion gas to the right, Case 2 burner with both sides as gas exit, Case 3 burner with left side gas exit. The pressure, flow, temperature, combustion reaction rate and distribution characteristics of nitrogen oxides were compared and analyzed. The combustion reaction occurred in Case 1 and Case 2 burner in the right direction with combustion gas recirculation inlet and Case 3 burner in the vicinity of mixed gas inlet. The temperature at the outlet was about $100^{\circ}C$ lower than that of the other burners as the Case 2 burner was exhausted to both sides. The NOx concentration of Case 1 burner at the exit was about 20 times larger than that of the other burners. From the present study, it could be seen that it is effective for the NOx reduction to exhaust the exhaust gas to both side gas exits or to exhaust the exhaust gas to the opposite direction of inlet of recirculation gas.

Catalytic gasification of a low rank coal- Inner Mongolian lignite has been carried out with carbon dioxide. The gasification reactions were performed in a thermogravimetric analyzer at temperatures of $600^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$. The kinetic parameters were evaluated using three different gas-solids reaction models and the prediction ability of each model were compared. Among the models evaluated, the modified volumetric model was found to correlate best both the non-catalytic and catalytic gasification reactions. The theoretical models, homogeneous and shrinking-core models, were found to satisfactorily correlate gasification reactions for the non-catalytic and $FeSO_4$-catalyzed reactions. In case of alkali metal catalysts, the catalytic activity was mostly pronounced at a low temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ and observed to decrease by 50% as the temperature was increased to $700^{\circ}C$, and it remained nearly constant at temperature over $800^{\circ}C$. The order of catalytic activity was found to be: $K_2CO_3$ > $Na_2CO_3$ > $K_2SO_4$ > $FeSO_4$.

Ammonia gas sensors were fabricated with ZnO-based thin films grown by RF-magnetron sputtering method. The films which were doped with $MoO_3$ catalysts of various weight percents were grown in different sputtering gases to fabricate the sensors with a high sensitivity, low working temperature and rapid response time. To improve electrical stability, the films were aged in various conditions. The sensors doped with the catalysts and grown in oxygen sputtering gas showed the improvement of sensitivity. These exhibited the increase of surface carrier concentration and electron mobility. The sensor with 0.875wt.% $MoO_3$ catalysts showed the maximum sensitivity of 70 in ammonia gas concentration of 160 ppm at a working temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. The sensor which is aged at $330^{\circ}C$ for 72hrs in oxygen ambient exhibited tourer sensitivity of 57, but more stable properties, excellent linearity.

This paper presents the temperature distribution and deformation characteristics of O-ring groove geometry in which is strongly related the sealing performance of pressure vessels. A working gas in pressure vessel may be heated by a heater and pressurized by a gas compressor. Thus, the pressure vessel should keep high Pressure and temperature for a limited working period. For these operation conditions, the working gas in pressure vessels should not leak to the air by two O-rings with a rectangular groove. The FEM computed results indicate that the thermal and mechanical properties of metal sealing material is very important for stopping a leakage of hot gas in a vessel. Based on the results, high thermal conductive and low mechanical strength material is recommended as a metal sealing one. This may improve the sealing characteristics of O-ring sealing mechanism with a rectangular groove, which reduces the sealing gap between a flange and a cylinder and the width of O-ring groove.

In this paper, to satisfy the temperature requirement of turbopump-inlet condition, the cooling of cryogenic propellant is performed at the simulated suction-line of the Launch Vehicle. The cooling method is by using Gas helium injection. This study investigates the effect of helium injection on the liquid nitrogen which simulates the liquid oxygen. By using helium injection, the subcooling of liquid nitrogen can be achieved within four minute when the ratio of gas volume flowrate to the volume of L$N_2$ is approximately v/v$_{L}$≒0.8min$^{-1}$ . .

$LaCoO_3$ thick-films for gas sensing layers were prepared on alumina substrate by screen printing method. The sensitivities to $C_4H_{10}$, $NH_3$, NO and CO gases were investigated for different heat treatment temperatures of the films. Their structural properties were examined by X-Ray Diffraction measurements and SEM photographs. The sensitivity of $LaCoO_3$ thick-film to CO gas was much higher than those of $C_4H_{10}$, $NH_3$, and NO gases. The optimal heat treatment and operating temperatures were $800^{\circ}C$ and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively. The sensitivities of $LaCoO_3$ thick-films to 500ppm and 1250ppm CO gas were 72% and 95%, respectively.

The structural, electrical and gas sensing characteristics of $LaFeO_3$ thin films fabricated by r.f. magnetron sputtering method on $Al_2O_3$ substrates were investigated. (121) domonant crystalline plane was observed for the films heat-treated at above $600^{\circ}C$ and gas sensing properties showed p-type semiconductor behaviors. Gas sensing characteristics of the $LaFeO_3$ thin films was studied as a function of film thicknesses and heat treatment temperatures. While the variation of the film thickness showed a little effect on the sensitivity, the heat treatment temperature was critical to the sensitivity. The thin films with thickness of 400 nm heat-treated at $800^{\circ}C$ showed the sensitivity of 400% for 5000ppm CO and 60% for 350ppm $NH_3$ at the working temperature of $300^{\circ}C$.

This research was conducted for the optimal design of large commercial gas oven system. Equivalent ratio was determined through a numerical analysis and experiments on the combustion condition of the combustor. After reviewing the supply capacity of burner(20,000 kcal) and control method of convection fan, two types of heat exchangers designed. In order to maintain a uniform temperature inside the oven is required convection fan braking system. The center temperature in the oven rises more rapidly when the convectional fan is rotated in the counterclockwise direction than the counter-clockwise direction. And The efficiency of the system by installing a large heat transfer area was higher.

원자층 증착(Atomic Layer Deposition: ALD) 방법은 반응물질들을 펄스형태로 챔버에 공급하여 기판 표면에 반응물질의 표면 포화반응에 의한 화학적 흡착과 탈착을 이용한 박막증착기술이다. ALD법은 박막의 조성 정밀제어가 쉽고, 파티클 발생이 없으며, 대면적의 박막 증착시 균일성이 우수하고, 박막 두께의 정밀 조절이 용이한 장점이 있다. 원자층 증착 공정에서 짧은 시간 안에 소스를 충분히 공급하기 위한 방법으로는 소스 온도를 증가시켜 전구체의 증기압을 높여 반응기로의 유입량을 증가시키는 방법, 전구체의 공급시간을 늘리는 방법 등을 들 수 있다. 그러나 전구체 온도를 상승시키는 경우, 공정 조건의 변화가 요구되며 전구체의 변질에 의하여 형성된 막이 의도하는 막 특성을 만족시키지 못하게 되는 문제점이 발생될 우려가 있다. 그리고 전구체를 충분히 공급하기 위하여 전구체의 공급시간을 늘이는 방법을 사용하면, 원하는 두께의 막을 형성하기 위하여 소요되는 공정시간이 증가된다. 이를 해결하기 위해 수송가스를 이용한 버블러 형태의 전구체 공급 장치를 사용하지만 이 또한 전구체의 수명을 단축시키는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 위의 문제점을 극복할 수 있는 새로운 개념의 수송가스 도움 전구체 공급 장치를 소개한다. 본 연구에서 사용된 수송가스 도움 전구체 공급 장치를 가지는 ALD 장비는 Lucida-D200 (NCD Technology사)이며 기판으로는 8인치 실리콘 웨이퍼를 사용하였으며 (TEMA)Zr을 사용하여 ZrO2 박막을 성장하였다. 수송가스 도움 전구체 공급 장치를 사용한 경우, 그렇지 않은 경우 보다 $30^{\circ}C$ 이상 전구체 온도를 낮출 수 있으며, 또한 증착 속도를 약 2배정도 증가시킬 수 있었다. 이들 박막들은 XRD, XPS, AFM 등을 이용하여 결정구조, 결합에너지, 표면 거칠기 등의 특성을 관찰하였다. 그리고 C-V, I-V 측정을 이용해 정전용량, 유전율, 누설전류 등의 전기적 특성을 평가하였다.
