The experimental study has been conducted to investigate the effect of the recirculation zone on the multi-slot film cooling in the ramjet combustor. The recirculation zone which is generated by the protrusion tip on the entrance of the coolant flow path affects on the first slot. Velocity fields, dimensionless temperature fields and adiabatic film cooling effectiveness on the downstream wall of the slot exit are measured. The results show that the film cooling performance is rapidly decreased after the slot exit by the share layer and high turbulence intensity between separated flows and coolant flows.

To study the combustion characteristics of forest fuel by fire intensity, the experiment of combustion characteristics on Pinus Densiflora living leaves, which is the weakest species to the forest fire, was delivered, using variables of heat flux(25 kW/$m^2$, 50 kW/$m^2$, 75 kW/$m^2$). With the equipment of Cone calorimeter, the characteristics of ignition, heat, smoke release, CO and $CO_2$ release, and mass loss were analyzed. Pinus Densiflora living leaves containing moisture of 60.66% were not ignited at the heat flux of variables 25 kW/$m^2$, 50 kW/$m^2$, 75 kW/$m^2$. In proportion to the heat flux value, heat release amount and heat release rate reached maximum value rapidly: higher variables came to the maximum by the half rapidity and the maximum value were twice higher than the former lower variables respectively. As for the smoke release, the less heat flux the variable had, the more smoke release it had, due to incomplete combustion. The release amount of CO and $CO_2$ had more maximum value as the heat flux increased and more radiant heat meaned more carbon oxide. When the forest fire breaks out, therefore, a great amount of CO and $CO_2$ will be released by Pinus Densiflora.

In this study, we analyzed the combustion characteristics of four different floor covering materials(wood, monorium, laminatedpaper, and varnish-laminated paper) with regard to their ignitibility, thermal characteristics and flame retardancy by using an ignition temperature tester, a dual cone calorimeter, a thermogravimetric analyzer and limited oxygen index, for their fire risk assessment. According to the result, monorium had the lowest ignition temperature of $325^{\circ}C$ and the laminated paper and the varnish-laminated paper promptly ignited before 7s. Further, the wood showed the largest total heat release of $100MJ/m^2$, and the varnish-laminated paper showed the highest peak heat release rate. From the thermogravimetric analysis, it was shown that all specimens underwent rapid weight loss at $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$. The limit oxygen indices of the laminated paper and the varnish-laminated paper were in the range of 20~21%, while it was 34% for wood. This study enabled us to confirm that wood, laminated paper and varnish-laminated paper have a relatively short ignition time and are easy to burn but they all have low heat release. In contrast, wood showed the lowest fire risk among them and had excellent flame retardancy but with high heat release.

The combustion test for real box of AC outdoor unit has been performed in this study in order to estimate the fire hazard in multi-system type of AC outdoor unit which is currently used for commercial use. The result showed that in test, there was explosion inside of AC outdoor unit, and flame erupted and fire spread through upper side grill. And then this fire burnt the combustibles such as wires, electronic control board, heat exchange copper plate and plastics etc inside the unit, refrigerant gas pipe was burst due to fire, and accelerated the explosion and flame eruption to outside while the refrigerant was erupting. It is found in this test that the maximum heat release rate of AC outdoor unit is 5,830 kW, the maximum internal temperature measured with infrared camera and thermocouple is $1,201^{\circ}C$, maximum ambient temperature is $881^{\circ}C$, and flame rose higher than about 5 m. It is concluded that the fire in AC outdoor unit cause fire to combustibles around the unit, and may give big damage by generating the secondary fire. It is expected that the result obtained from the test on the real object may be applied to fire realization of AC outdoor unit and estimation of fire spreading to the combustibles around in the future computer simulation.

A numerical simulation has been performed for isothermal and reacting flows in an exisymmetric, bluff-body research combustor. The present formulation is based on the density-weighted averaged Navier-Stokes equations together with a k-epsilon. turbulence model and a modified eddy-breakup combustion model. The PISO algorithm is employed for solution of thel Navier-Stokes system. Comparison between measurements and predictions are made for a centerline axial velocities, location of stagnation points, strength of recirculation zone, and temperature profile. Even though the numerical simulation gives acceptable agreement with experimental data in many respects, the present model is defictient in predicting the recoveryt rate of a central near-wake region, the non-isotropic turbulence effects, and variation of turbulent Schmidt number. Several possible explanations for these discrepancies have been discussed.

In the present work, FEM analyses are carried out to investigate the fractures occurred within the structural part in the course of combustion experiment. The loss of structural integrity stems from the localized deformation and the damage induced due to a severe change in the thermal load. Moreover, the two-back stress evolution model is proposed using the Armstrong-Frederick and the Phillips' rules to depict the plastic deformation, and the continuum damage mechanics is also incorporated into the present model. It is noted that the present model is able to formulate a wide range of constitutive description with ease. The numerical results depicts that a severe strain localization and damage evolution can be obtained depending on the dominant back stress.

산업활동에 의해서 대기중에 배출되어지는 $CO_2$의 예측수법으로써 1983연도 미환경보호국의 보고서 $\ulcorner$지구기후안정화의 정책선정$\lrcorner$ 및 세계적으로 폭넓게 쓰여지고 있는 J. Edmonds & J. Reilly 양씨가 발표한 보문 $\ulcorner$장기 지구 Energy $CO_2$모델$\lrcorner$등을 사용해서 각종 화석연료의 궁극가채매장양으로부터 $CO_2$의 방출양을 예측 검토해 본 것이다. 대기중의 $CO_2$농도는 산업혁명 이후의 약 280ppm에서 최근 약 350ppm으로까지 증대되어가고 있다는 보고다. 그 원인은 지구삼림 개발과 석탄등의 화석연료 연소에 의해 대기중에 방출되어 지는 $CO_2$ 때문인 것이다. 현재 인류는 연간 탄소환산으로써 약 52억톤의 화석연료를 소비하여 발생시킨 $CO_2$를 대기중에 방출하고 있다. 세계기상기구(WMO)와 유엔환경계획(UNEP)이 주최하는 기후변동의 정부간판넬(IPCC)의 보고에서는 만약 아무런 대책도 공시하지 않고 있다면(시나리오 Bau: Bussiness as Usual), 전지구적 평균기온은 내세기의 10년안에 0.3$^{\circ}C$씩 상승이 예상된다고 한다. 이와같은 변화는 과거 1 만년간에 비유할수 없을만큼 급격한 변화도 있다고 하는 것이다. 이것은 2025년에는 내세기말 까지에는 3$^{\circ}C$의 기온상승이 예상되고, 이에 따른 해면상승은 2030년에는 20cm, 내세기말까지에는 65cm로 예상하고 있다.

광양만권 개발에 따른 광양만의 매립과 준설로 인해 광양만의 급격한 지형변화가 일어나고 있다. 또한. 오염에 대한 우려가 있어 해양수산부에서는 특별관리해역으로 지정하여 관리하고 있다. 본 연구는 광양만 중앙의 묘도를 중심으로 5개의 정점을 선정하여 2005년 겨울부터 2007년 8월까지 총 8차례에 걸친 조사를 통해 장기적인 모니터링을 실시하여 환경변화에 따른 오염도를 조사하였다. 광양만의 중금속의 경우 농도의 변동양상으로 볼 때 오염원의 증가에 의한 변동보다는 계절적인 영향에 의한 변동양상으로 판단할 수 있다. 광양만에서 검출되는 중금속의 농도수준은 As를 제외한 전 항목이 US EPA 의 ERL을 초과하지 않은 것으로 조사되었다. 표층퇴적물 중 PAHs의 분석결과를 비교해 보면 지점별 농도변동양상이 뚜렷하지 않으며, 지점별 농도변화도 미약하다. PAHs 오염원의 추정의 결과 조사시기별 전 지점에서 분석한 결과, 몇 지점에서는 유류기원에 의한 오염의 경향이 보이는 반면 그 외의 대부분의 조사지점에서는 연소기원에 의한 PAHs 물질의 분포를 보였다.

A drastic pressure increment at the combustor inlet induced thermal choking is inevitable during scram-to-ramjet transitions. This phenomenon which is called by Non-Allowable Region(NAR) was observed on the excessive increment in the equivalent ratio. However, many studies were not investigated about factors which affects a variation of NAR. In the present study, a variation of NAR with regard to Mach number in the inlet of isolator is numerically and analytically analyzed. The conclusions from the investigation show that increasing the Mach number in the isolator inlet enlarged in the range of NAR.
