In the present study, we described in detail a precise correction method of the copper emission spectra obtained from a highpressure and high-temperature pulsed plasma-jet. The pulsed plasma-jet is initiated from an electro-thermal capillary discharge through a small orifice, and expanded rapidly into an atmosphere. In order to characterize the plasma, fundamental measurements such as the plasma excitation temperature or electron number density are essential. However those spectral lines which are directly related to the excitation temperature or electron number density may be distorted by the spectral response of the optical instruments used. Therefore, in this paper, we discuss some efforts to derive precise correction methods of the copper emission spectra obtained from the pulsed plasma-jet. a-jet.

The thermal response of elastomeric insulators used as protection against high-temperature and high-pressure combustion gases varies depending on their composition and thermal environment conditions. In this paper, the thermal response characteristics of elastomeric insulators in different mixing environments were compared. Tests to determine thermal protection performance were carried out using a thermal protection rubber evaluation motor(TPREM), combustion gas velocities of 20 m/s and 100 m/s were tested at a chamber pressure of 1,000 psig. The pressure time curve of the chamber, the temperature time curve of the internal materials, the residual thickness and the thermal destruction depth of the test specimens were obtained. The results showed that the thermal protection performance of elastomeric insulators in different mixing environments was similar.

In the solid rocket motor (SRM), a thrust of rocket is generated by a nozzle so it is very important device. The nozzle of SRM is a condition of high temperature and high pressure so occurs the erosion by combustion gas. The liquid rocket propulsion systems (LRPSs) cools the nozzle by the fuel and oxidizer but SRM does not cool the nozzle. This paper deal with the development of the oxy-acetylene torch tester and investigate the thermochemical erosion properties for the thermal insulation materials of the graphite rocket nozzle throat through the experiment. The results of experiments are compared with the results of Theoretical model and identify the key factors affecting of erosion. The results is in good agreement with the experimental data.

The effect of extraction methods, such as reflux extraction (RE), autoclave extraction (AE), low temperature high pressure extraction (LTPE) and ultrasonification extraction (USE) on antioxidant activity of various species of Artemisia (Artemisia capillaris T., Artemisia princeps P., Artemisia annua L.) was investigated. The extraction yield of RE and AE was higher than other methods tested for all Artemisia. The total polyphenol and flavonoid content of Artemisia sp. extracts from RE was highest of the extraction methods tested. The total polyphenol and flavonoid content of A. capillaris T. extracted by RE was 260.82 mg GAE/g and 11.52 mg RHE/g, respectively. The A. capillaris T. extract showed higher DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity than that of the other tested Artemisia sp. Nitrite scavenging activity and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity of various extracts from RE was 45.48% and 68.29% (A. capillaris T.), 45.73% and 61.43% (A. princeps P.), and 44.25% and 58.19% (A. annua L.), respectively. The RE method was the most effective method for extracting antioxidant substances from various A. capillaris T. compared with AE, LTPE and USE. These results suggest that extracts of Artemisia sp. from RE can be used as bioactive and functional materials in the food industry.

We have applied the temperature dependent Thomas-Fermi theory to evaluate the equations of state, chemical potentials, entropies, % ionizations, total energies and kinetic energies of an atom, and seveal thermodynamic quantifies of one of metallic substance, Na, for a density range of 0.1$\rho$$_{0}$ ~ 10$\rho$$_{0}$, where $\rho$$_{0}$ is the normal density of Na at its melting point, and for a temperature range of 60.88Ryd. ~0.0216 Ryd., where the system is expected to be in a gaseous or liquid state. The main interest of present work lies in physical quantities at high temperatures and high densities, however, we have included those quantities of Na at sufficiently low temperatures and low densities to show that the approximation is not so crude as one might expect. Particularly, at high temperatures, the calculated equations of state, kinetic energies of an atom, chemical potentials and entropies are compared with those, of an ideal Fermi gas. The results show that, at high temperatures, the agreement seems good for chemical Potentials. However, the differences in, entropy, kinetic energy of an atom, and equation of state are not negligible even at such high temperature as $textsc{k}$T=60.88Ryd.

The antioxidant and digestive enzyme inhibitory effects of Eisenia bicyclis extracted by various extraction methods (RE, reflux extraction; SE, ultrasonification extraction; AE, autoclave extraction; LE, low-temperature high-pressure extraction) were investigated. The extraction yield (55.21%) and the laminarin (39.03%), fucoidan (24.75%), total polyphenol (115.68 mg GAE/g) and flavonoid (36.67 mg RHE/g) contents of AE were higher than those in other methods. The DPPH radical (86.60%, 500 mg%), ABTS radical (58.56%, 25 mg%), nitrite (86.38%, 100 mg%) scavenging activities of the Eisenia bicyclis extracted by AE were higher than those of Eisenia bicyclis extracted by other methods. The ABTS radical and nitrite scavenging activities were above 98% in all tested Eisenia bicyclis extracts and these activities were dependent on its concentration. The inhibitory effects of AE against amylase (50 mg%) and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase (5 mg%) were 64.76% and 86.71%, respectively. The AE showed the best inhibitory effect of Eisenia bicyclis extracts (50 mg%) against trypsin (24.37%) and ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin (49.05%), respectively. These results suggest that Eisenia bicyclis extracted by AE can be used as a bioactive and functional material in the food industry.

The water purifier market has increased rapidly in recent years. The welding technology of the evaporator is a key component that determines the level of ice production and the cold water performance of an ice purifier. The finger type evaporator of an ice purifier can remove ice and is divided largely into an instant heat method and a hot gas method. In the hot gas type evaporator, particularly during the production process, the pinhole phenomenon inside the copper pipe and clogging problems occur intermittently when welding high-pressure pipes due to the high-temperature oxygen welding. Its use in a water purifier can cause a problem in that ice and cold water do not form, and repairs cannot be made on site. To solve this problem, in this study, a cap jig was applied to improve the welding defect of the hot gas evaporator. In addition, the oxygen welding flame size was adjusted so that the heat source could be well supplied to the cap jig, and the effectiveness was confirmed through a wave pressure test, a test, and a thermal shock test.

Cloud-point data at $230^{\circ}C$ and 1,800 bar are presented for two poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol)(PEVA) copolymers[9.9mol% and 17.8mol% vinyl alcohol(VA)] in ethylene, propane, propylene, n-butane, 1-butene, dimethyl ether(DME), and chlorodifluromethane(CDFM). The static type experimental apparatus with a view cell has been used for the experiment at the high pressure and temperature. The pressure-temperature (P-T) loops of PEVA(9.9mol% VA) copolymer-DME mixtures are presented at copolymer concentrations of 1.4wt% to 20.0wt%. Also, we presented the phase behavior of PEVA(17.8mol% VA) copolymer-DME system at copolymer concentration of 1.9wt% to 6.8wt%. The cloud-point curves for the PEVA copolymers in dimethyl ether showed single phase above 480 bar as a result of the hydrogen bonding between the vinyl alcohol unit and dimethyl ether. The pressure-concentration(P-x) isotherm loops of PEVA(9.9mol% and 17.8mol% VA)-DME system are obtained. The cloud-point curves for PEVA(9.9mol% and 17.8 mol% VA) copolymers andthe ethylene, propane, propylene, n-butane, 1-butene, and CDFM all show negative slopes of phase behavior and are located at pressures below 1,800 bar. For PEVA copolymer-DME system(9.9mol% VA), cloud-point curves show positive slopes that decrease in pressures with decrease in temperature in the temperature range of $80^{\circ}C$ to $160^{\circ}C$.

The 500 MW Korean standard coal-fired power plant is the largest standardized power plant in Korea and has played a pivotal role in domestic power generation for over 20 years. In addition to the aging degradation due to long term operation, the probability of failure of power generation facilities is increasing due to frequent startup and stop caused by the lower utilization rate due to air pollution problem caused by coal-fired power plants. Among them, steam piping plays an important role in transferring high-temperature & pressure steam produced in a boiler to turbine for power generation. In recent years, failure of steam piping of large coal-fired power plant has frequently occurred. Therefore, in this study, failure analysis of high pressure piping weld was conducted. We identify the damage caused by high stress due to abnormal supporting structure of the piping and suggest improved supporting structure to eliminate high stress through microstructure analysis and piping stress analysis to prevent the occurrence of the similar failure of other power plant in the case of repetitive damage to the main steam piping system of the 500 MW Korean standard coal-fired power plant.

This study investigated changes in the S-allyl-L-cysteine (SAC) content of garlic using different cooking methods. Methods for determining SAC were validated by determining specificity, linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), precision, and accuracy using an high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection system. Results showed high linearity in the calibration curve with a coefficient of correlation ($R^2$) of 0.9999. The LOD and LOQ values for SAC were 0.15 and $0.47{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The relative standard deviations for intra- and inter-day precision of SAC were less than 5%. The recovery rate of SAC was in the range from 97.35% to 97.47%. The SAC content of raw garlic was 2.77 mg/g, and there was no significant difference in SAC content according to blanching and microwave treatment. However, SAC content upon boiling and autoclaving at $110^{\circ}C$ and $121^{\circ}C$ increased from 3.50~9.16 mg/g, 6.52~16.21 mg/g, and 14.15~50.24 mg/g with increasing cooking temperature and time, respectively.
