Red pine (Pinus densiflora), white pine (Pinus koraiensis), larch (Larix leptolepis) and Western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) lumber were vacuum-press dried under three drying schedules to investigate current moisture contents (MC), drying rates and drying time factors related to five lumber thicknesses of 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11cm. Current MC could be estimated by drying factors such as lumber thickness, initial Me and drying time. Average drying rate from 30% to 15% Me was the highest for Western hemlock below fiber satuartion point, red pine, white pine and larch in the order of their magnitude. Drying rate curvilinearly decreased as lumber thickness increased. Drying time factor curvilinearly increased as lumber thickness increased.

A numerical solution of temperature and thermally induced stress in a wafer during rapid thermal processing (R.T.P) is obtained, and an analysis of onset and propagation of slip is performed and compared with experiment. In order to calculate temperature distribution of a wafer in R.T.P system, heat conduction equation that incorporated with radiative and convective heat transfer model is solved, and the solution of the equation is calculated numerically using alternating direction implicit (A.D.I) method. In dealing with radiative heat transfer, a partially transparent body that absorbs the radiation energy is assumed and this transparent body undergoes multiple internal reflections and absorptions. Two dimensional (assuming plane stress) thermoelastic constitutive equation is used to calculate thermal stress induced in a wafer and finite element method is employed to solve the equation numerically. The stress resolved in the slip directions on the slip planes of silicon is compared with the yield stress of silicon in order to predict the slip. The result of the analysis shows that the wafer temperature at which slip occurs is affected by the heating rate of the R.T.P system. It is observed that once slip occurs in the wafer, the slip grows.

This study was conducted to investigate residue levels of chlorantraniliprole and ethaboxam in inner part and outer leaves of a head-type Korean cabbage. Further, reduction of residues was measured after water washing, blanching and heat-cooking of the outer leaves. For chlorantraniliprole, residues in inner part and outer leaves were <0.01 mg/kg and 0.0757 mg/kg, respectively, in case of three-time spraying 30 days before harvest and <0.01 mg/kg and 1.19 mg/kg, respectively, in case of four-time spraying 10 days before harvest; for ethaboxam, <0.05 mg/kg and 0.216 mg/kg, respectively and <0.05 mg/kg and 1.18 mg/kg, respectively. Chlorantraniliprole and ethaboxam were not detected in inner part of the head-type Korean cabbage. Residue levels in outer leaves were very high as 10-100 fold as those in inner part of the cabbage. Therefore, there is no concern for safety of pesticide residues on kimchi prepared with the inner part of a head-type Korean cabbage. In addition, it needs to be noted that outer leaves should be carefully removed at harvest of the cabbage. Outer leaves water washed and blanched are called as Woogeogi, which is consumed after heat-cooking. In Woogeogi, residue concentrations of two compounds reduced to less than 10%, and further less than 5% by heat-cooking. This indicates that considerable amount of the test pesticide residues in outer leaves of a head-type Korean cabbage removed through water washing, blanching and heat-cooking.

In this study, we have measured the charring rate of solid sawn timber as a preceding step for develop performance based fire safety design method of wood framed building structures. The follows are the summary of fire test results carried out with $400{\times}400$ mm cross-section Douglas-fir in varied of thickness and grain directions. I) When the timber thickness increase under same dimension, the charring rate decreases gradually. It is seemed the charring layer up on a thickness roles as a insulation, gives combustion delaying time to specimen. 2) The charring rates measured at different depths (10, 20, 30, 40 mm) in timber which varying thickness (20, 40, 80, 120 mm) when exposed maximum 1 hour standard fire increase by 30 mm depth, but decrease at 40 mm. It is seemed the minimum charr layer should be 30 mm for having role of insulation. 3) The charring rate of cross section surface (direction of perpendicular to grain) was more high than that of grain direction. It can be explained by the cracks and gaps from greater charr contraction made more heat flux incident into timber.

In deep-fat frying, the fats and oils are used over and over again, and moisture and air are mixed in to the hot oil. Many reports related to these fats and oils have been established that thermal and oxidative decomposition products and polymers formed under the conditions of deep fat frying are harmful to health. This work was carried out with 3 domestic frying oils and 6 used oils commercially, and that there were difficulties in finding a good definition between fresh oil and used oil with adding unheated oil. As starting materials, commercially used soybean oil and rapeseed oil already passed over induction period in the lipids oxidation standard. From the qualitative point of view, they were inferior to domestic frying oils. Free fatty acid and peroxide value of heated oils were increased gradually by the time pass whereas iodine value were decreased. After adding unheated oil to the heated oil, these values were restored to that of initial levels. On the other hand, content of polar components in the heated oil were directly related to the heating time. This result showed that polar compounds may be a clear indicator of used oils. Fatty acid composition in the used oils, unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic and linolenic acid decreased while saturated fatty acid content increased with heating.

It was attempted in this experiment to observe the effect of ginseng saponin on the growth and recovery rate of Saccharomyces rouxii which was shocked by heat-stress. The growth of S. rouxii was found most active when the saponin concentration in the malt extract broth was $10^{-3}%$ And the growth rate of S. rouxii grown on medium containing $10^{-3}%$ ginseng saponin was faster thanh that of the yeast grown on medium without saponin from the early log phase of the yeast. The growth recovery rate of S. rouxii which was heat-shockied by $80^{\circ}C$ - 30 minites was accelerated in the medium added ginseng saponin.

The cure kinetics of a bisphenol A epoxy resin and polyoxypropylene diamine curing agent system are investigated in both dynamic and isothermal conditions by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). In dynamic experiments, the shift of exothermic peaks obtained at different heating rates is used to obtain activation energy of overall cure reaction based on the methods of Ozawa and Kissinger. Isothermal DSC data at different temperatures are fitted to an autocatalytic Kamal kinetic model. The kinetic model is in a good agreement with the experimental data in the initial stage of cure. A diffusion effect is incorporated to describe the later stage of cure, predicting the cure kinetics over the whole range of curing process. Also, dynamic mechanical analysis is performed to evaluate the storage modulus and average molecular weight between crosslinkages.

The hydration and strength of concrete are affected by curing conditions, especially curing temperature. In this paper, the hydration temperature of heated curing concrete specimen are measured by thermo-couples instead of conduction calorimeter, and strengths of concrete are tested. The results of this study show that the compressive strengths of concrete are especially dependent on the curing temperature. And the strength results of concrete agree approximately with the results of approach to the hydration process of cement concrete.

We conducted an isothermal slow cook-off(ISCO) test for an aluminized explosive containing AP. The sample bulged before the run-away reaction, and therefore we were unable to obtain the ISCO data. However, these phenomena did not occur for a certain AP grade, which means that the quality of the AP exerted a significant effect on the thermal stability of the explosive formulation. In this study, we investigated the thermal stability difference between a good and bad AP grade. First, we characterized the thermal properties of all APs by Differential Scanning Calorimeter(DSC) and correlated them to the ISCO phenomena. In addition to the DSC study and ISCO test, we also investigated and calculated the SADT and self-heating rate by the ARC of the different AP qualities to interpret the thermal stability of the explosive formulation. Moreover, we investigated the impurity of the AP and a preparation method to remove the included impurity and crystallization. Finally, we implemented qualification methods to identify the quality of AP by DSC using a high-pressure crucible.

최근의 산업활동에서는 신규 원료 개발과 생산 효율성을 높이기 위하여 분체 공정이 증가하고 있는데, 미세 분진의 취급으로 분진운의 형성과 착화가 용이해지므로 분진폭발이나 화재 위험성이 증가하고 있다. 분진을 안전하게 사용하고 저장, 취급하기 위해서는 착화 전의 위험성 지표로서 최저발화온도(MIT ; Minimum Ignition Temperature)를 사전에 파악해 두는 것이 중요하다. 분진농도의 발화온도는 장치 내의 발화위험성이나 분진 취급 공정의 사고예방대책 관리를 위한 실용적 관점에서 중요하게 활용되는 폭발특성값이다. 또한 분진의 발화온도는 분진농도에 의존하며 농도변화에 따른 가장 낮은 온도를 MIT라고 한다. 본 연구에서는 화재폭발사고 빈도가 줄지 않고 있는 Mg 및 Mg-Al합금(60:40 wt%, 50:50 wt%, 40:60 wt%)을 대상으로 조성비율에 따른 최저발화온도를 실험적으로 조사하였다. Mg 및 Mg-Al(60:40 wt%), Mg-Al(50:50 wt%), Mg-Al(40:60 wt%) 시료의 평균입경은 142, 160, 151, $152{\mu}m$이다. MIT실험장치는 IEC 61241-2-1(Methods for Determining the Minimum Ignition Temperatures of Dust, 1994)에 준거하여 제작하여 사용하였다. 실험장치는 가열로, 분진운 시료홀더, 온도조절장치, 압축공기 제어장치 등으로 구성되어 있다. 구체적인 실험방법은 시험분진를 분진홀더에 장착하고 0.5 bar의 압축공기를 0.3 sec 동안 사용하여 일정 온도로 가열된 로의 내부로 분진운을 부유시킬 때에 분진운이 발화하여 가열로 하단부의 개방구에까지 화염이 전파하는지를 디지털비데오카메라로 기록, 평가하여 발화 유무를 판정하였다. Mg합금에 대한 MIT를 측정한 결과 $740^{\circ}C$가 얻어졌으며, Mg-Al(60:40 wt%)의 MIT는 $820^{\circ}C$로 조사되었다. 그러나 Mg-Al(50:50 wt%) 및 Mg-Al(40:60 wt%)에 대해서는 최대 가열로의 설정온도를 $890^{\circ}C$까지로 하여 농도를 변화시키면서 조사하였으나 발화가 일어나지 않았다. 문헌에 따르면 Mg입자 표면의 산화피막은 다공성으로 일정 온도에서 산화반응이 시간에 따라 직선적으로 증가하는데 반하여, Al의 산화피막은 보호 작용을 하여 일정 온도에서 산화반응속도가 표면과 내부의 농도 기울기에 의한 확산속도에 의존한다고 보고하고 있다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 Mg-Al합금의 발화특성을 고찰해 보면, Mg-Al합금에서 자기 전파성이 작은 Al성분의 증가는 착화지연이 증가하여 연소성이 감소하여 최저발화온도의 증가로 이어지는 것으로 추정되었다. 또한 발화온도는 주어진 조건의 온도장에서 분진이 존재하는 시간 길이에 따라 변화하므로, 발화온도를 실험적으로 측정하는 경우에는 측정장치나 방법에 따라 달라지므로 사업장의 현장에 발화온도를 적용하는 경우에는 장치 내의 분진의 존재시간을 고려할 필요가 있다.
