화학반응이 일어나는 고정층 반응기의 성능을 모사하고 해석하기 위해서는 반응베드의 열 및 물질전달 특성을 정확히 아는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 화학열펌프에 사용되는 금속염-팽창흑연 다공성 반응매체의 유효열전도도와 기체투과도를 측정하였다. 유효열전도도는 전이 일차원 열류기법을 이용하여 측정하였고, 기체투과도는 Darcy's law를 이용하여 측정하였다. 팽창흑연이 함유된 반응베드의 유효열전도도와 기체투과도는 흑연을 기준으로 한 겉보기밀도에 따라 각각 14.1-36.5 W/mK, 8.0x$10^{-15}$-$10^{-12}$ $m^2$의 범위에 있었다.

Experiment were carried out to investigate the heat transfer characteristics of an aluminum foam block as a porous heat sink on a heat source by a vertical air jet impingement that can be applied for electronics cooling. The performance of the aluminum foam heat sink was evaluated by the convective heat transfer coefficient on the heat source. At a fixed porosity, pore density ($\beta$) of the foam and Reynolds number Re were varied in the range of $\beta$a=10, 20, 40 PPI(Pore Per Inch) and $850\leqRe\leq25000$. A nozzle diameter and the nozzle-to-plate spacing were also varied. It was found that the convective heat transfer was enhanced by the aluminum foam heat sink with lower pore density due to relatively intensified flow through the foam block. The aluminum foam block with much reduced weight shows slightly better performance with larger Nusselt number, compared with the convectional heat sink.

Offshore wind farm is being increased since there are much trouble to develop onshore wind farm. But in the offshore, wind turbine wake does not dissipate less than onshore wind turbine because of low turbulence level. Thus this remained wake interacted to other wind turbine. This interaction reduces energy production in wind farm and have a bad influence on fatigue load of wind turbine. In this research, CFD model was constructed to analyze wake effect in offshore wind farm. A method that wind turbine rotor region was modelled in porous media was devised to reduce computation load and validated by comparison with Horns Rev measurement. Then wake interaction between two wind turbine was analyzed by devised porous model.

Biodegradable polymers have been used extensively as scaffolding materials to regenerate new tissues and the ingrowth of tissue have been reported to be dependent directly of the porosity, pore diameter, pore shape, and porous structure of the scaffold. In this study, porous poly (L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) scaffolds with five different pore sizes were fabricated to investigate the effect of pore sizes for AF tissue regeneration. Cellular viability and proliferation were assayed by MTT test. Hydroxyproline/DNA content of AF cells on each scaffold was measured. sGAG analyses were performed at each time point of 2 and 6 weeks. Scaffold seeded AF cells were implanted into the back of athymic nude mouse to observe the difference of formation of disc-like tissue depending on pore size in vivo. We confirmed that scaffold with $180{\sim}250{\mu}m$ pores displayed high cell viability in vitro and produced higher ECM than scaffold with other pore sizes in vivo.

We studied graphene synthesis to porous Cu to improve the characteristics of carbon dioxide reduction of cu. Cu powders were formed through Thermal Chemical Vapor Deposition(TCVD) to Porous Cu/Graphene structures synthesized with graphene. As a result of electrochemical experiments using a 0.1 M $KHCO_3$ electrolyte at an applied potential of -1.0 V to -1.4 V, the current density of Porous Cu/Graphene was 1.8 times higher than that of Porous Cu. As a result of evaluating the product, CO and $H_2$ were generated to Porous Cu electrode. On the other hand, the product of porous Cu/Graphene produced CO, $CH_4$ and $C_2H_4$. It is considered that the graphene causes longer carbon dioxide adsorption time, which means that the intermediates formed during the reaction remain on the electrode surface for a longer time. As a result, it can be concluded that the production reaction of the C2 compound could be continuously performed.

본 연구에서는 ZnO 나노선 기판을 제작하여 그 위에 밴드갭이 낮은 물질인 CdS, CdSe를 증착시킨 후 p-type 반도체 물질인 CuSCN을 증착시켜 안정성이 향상된 양자점 감응형 태양전지를 제작하였다. ZnO 나노선 기판은 투명한 FTO 기판 위에 ZnO를 진공증착시켜 seed layer를 제작하고 그 위에 $10{\mu}m$정도의 길이의 나노와이어를 성장시킨 후, 밴드갭이 낮은 CdS, CdSe 물질과의 다중접합을 이용하여 제작하고, 이러한 나노선 구조위에 chemical solution deposition을 이용하여 ${\beta}$-CuSCN을 형성시켰다. 양자점 감응형 태양전지는 ZnO 나노선을 photoanode로 이용하고 ZnO 나노선은 암모니아수와 아연염을 이용한, 비교적 저온의 수열합성법을 통해 합성하였고, sensitizer로 쓰인 CdS, CdSe 물질은 CBD방식을 통하여 합성된 나노선 위에 in-situ로 접합시켰다. 또한, 기존의 액체전해질을 이용한 양자점 감응형 태양전지의 안정성을 향상시키기 위해 p-type의 반도체 물질인 CuSCN물질을 propyl sulfide를 이용, ${\sim}80^{\circ}C$의 열을 가하여 in-situ 방식으로 다공성 구조에 효율적으로 접합이 가능하도록 deposition하였다. 일반적으로, CuSCN film은 홀 전도체로서의 장점을 지닌 반면, 전도성이 낮은 단점이 있기 때문에 이를 향상시키기 위해서 첨가제를 이용, 농도에 따라서 전도도가 향상되고 셀의 성능이 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 같이 합성된 구조는 주사전자현미경(SEM), X-선 회절(XRD), 솔라시뮬레이터 등의 분석장비를 이용하여 태양전지로서의 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 안정성 평가를 위하여 시간에 따른 셀의 특성변화도 비교하였다.

Mobile bacterial particles can act as carriers and enhance the transport of hydrophobic contaminants in ground water by reducing retardation effects. Because of their colloidal size and favorable surface conditions, bacteria can act as efficient contaminant carriers. When such carriers exist in a porous medium, the system can be thought of as three phases: an aqueous phase, a carrier phase, and a stationary solid matrix phase. Contaminant can be present in either or all of these phases. In this study, a mathematical model based on mass balances is developed to describe the transport and fate of biodegradable contaminant in a porous medium. Bacterial mass transfer mechanism between aqueous and solid matrix phases, and contaminant mass transfer between aqueous and bacterial phases are represented by kinetic models. Governing equations are non-dimensionalized and solved to analyze the bacteria facilitated contaminant transport. The numerical results of the facilitation effect match favorably with experimental data reported in the literature. Results show that the contaminant transport can be described by local equilibrium assumption when Damkohler numbers are larger than 10. Significant sensitivities to model parameters, particularly bacterial growth rate and influent bacterial concentration, were discovered.

To overcome the flux reduction due to the fouling by adsorption of foulants onto the porous hydrophobic polyethylene membrane surface, the oxyflorination was introduced to hydrophilize the hydrophobic membranes. After the hydrophilization through oxyfluorination, the contact angle decreased from $93^{\circ}$ to $50^{\circ}$ while the water flux increased to 60%. It was considered that for the model foulants dissolved in water, such as albumin (form bovine serum, BSA), humic acid sodium salt (HA), and alginic acid sodium salt (SA), the flux was enhanced since the adsorbed foulants decreased by the oxyfluorination. Particularly, it was obtained that the water flux was over twice more than the untreated polyethylene membrane in case of SA foulant.

A strategic question in groundwater contaminant transport modeling is whether we need to treat waste packages or drums as individual, discrete sources or as approximately lumped sources. In this paper we present analyses of array sources in porous media. We analyze a planar array of sources in porous media with groundwater flow. We compare the concentration field predicted by a detailed model of individual point sources to concentration fields predicted by an infinite plane source and a single point source, all of the same equivalent strength. From this study we identified three regions: (1) a region close to the sources where the effects of adjacent sources are significant and individual source models should be used, (2) a region extending from a few meters to hundreds to thousands of meters downstream, where an equivalent source of infinite extent gives accurate results, and (3) a far-field region, where in an equivalent source of finite extent gives accurate results.

The increase of greenhouse gas emission and decrease of fossil fuel are being caused by the indiscreet consumption of energy by people. Recently, green policy has been globally implemented to reduce energy consumption. This paper studied the research to reduce the energy consumption in buildings, by using the heat storage properties of PCM. PCM has to prevent leakage from the liquid state. Therefore, we prepared form stable PCM, by using the vacuum impregnation method. Three kinds of organic PCMs were impregnated into the structure of porous material. The characteristics of the composites were determined by using SEM, DSC, FTIR and TGA. SEM morphology showed the micro structure of silica fume/PCM. Also, thermal properties were examined by DSC and TGA analyses; and the chemical bonding of the composite was determined by FTIR analysis.
