In the adoption of a desalination system the most important factor is the cost of fresh water pro-duction. In general LNG is stored in a tank as a liquid state below $-162^{\circ}C$ When it is serviced however the LNG absorbs energy from a heat source and it is transformed to a high pressure gaseous state. During this process a huge amount of cold energy accumulated in cooling LNG is wasted. This wasted cold energycan be utilized to produce fresh water by using a sea water freez-ing desalination system. in order to develop a sea water freezing desalination system and to estab-lish its design technique qualitative and quantitative data regarding the freezing behavior of sea water is required in advance. The goals of this study are to reveal the freezing mechanisms of sea water in a cooled circular tube to measure the freezing rate and to investigate the freezing heat-transfer characteristics. The experimental results provide a general understanding of sea water freezing behavior in a cooled circular tube.

Currently as due to the rapid development of industry and increase in population we meet serious problems concerning the shortage and pollution of water. In the country many experts predict a shortage of water approaching 450 million tons by the year 2006. To cope with this serious problem it is necessary to construct desalination plants. In the adoption of a desalination system the most important factor is the cost of fresh water production,. In general LNG is stored in a tank as a liquid state below $-162^{\circ}C$. When it is serviced, however the LNG absorbs energy from a heat source and transforms to a high pressure gaseous state. During this process a huge amount of cold energy accumulated in cooling LNG is wasted. This wasted cold energy can be utilized to produce fresh water by using a sea water freezing desalination system. In order to develop a sea water freezing desalination system and to establish its design technique qualitative and quantitative data regarding the freezing behavior of sea water is required in advance, The goals of this study are to reveal the freezing behavior of sea water is required in advance. The goals of this study are to reveal the freezing mechanisms of sea water to measure the freezing rate and to investigate the freezing heat-transfer characteristics,. The experimental results will provide a general understanding of sea water freezing behavior in a rectangular vessel cooled from above.

Vacuum freeze drying process by which frozen water in a drying material is removed sublimation under vacuum condition, is now applied to various industrial field such as the manufacturing and packaging of pharmaceuticals in pharmaceutical industry, the drying of bio- products in bio-technology industry, the treatment of various quality food stuff in food technology, and so on. The Knowledge about the heat and mass transfer characteristics related with the vacuum freeze drying process is crucial to improve the efficiency of the process as well as the quality of dried products. In spite of increasing needs for understanding of the process, the research efforts in this fields are still insufficient. In this paper, a numerical code that can predict primary drying in a vial is developed based on the finite volume method with a moving grid system. The calculation program can handle the axis- symmetric and multi-dimensional characteristics of heat and mass transfer of the vial freeze drying process. To demonstrated the usefulness of the present analysis, a practical freeze drying of skim Milk solution in a vial is simulated and various calculation results are presented.

Freeze drying under vacuum condition is a complex process that involves simultaneous heat and mass transfer, sublimation of ice, and motion of sublimation front. Proper treatment of the motion of sublimation interface is crucial for an accurate prediction of the freeze drying process. Based on the enthalpy formulation that has been successfully used in liquid/solid phase change problems. a fixed grid method. streamlined for the freeze drying analysis. was developed in this study. The accuracy of the fixed grid method was checked by solving a one-dimensional tray freeze drying and a two-dimensional vial freeze drying problem and then comparing the results with those by the moving grid method. Finally. the freeze drying characteristics of two-dimensional slab and axis-symmetric cylinder was investigated using the fixed grid method.

굴은 향기가 좋고 영양성분이 풍부하며 질병 예방의 기능성이 높은 우수한 수산식품으로 동서양인 모두가 선호한다. 대량으로 생산된 굴의 보관 및 유통의 편의성을 증가시키는 가장 좋은 방법은 건조하는 것인데, 기존의 열풍건조나 동결건조에 의할 경우에는 굴의 육질이 매우 약하여 향과 영양 성분의 파괴가 많아 완전건조가 불가능하다. 본 논문에서는 $15^{\circ}C$ 저온진공건조기술을 이용하여 한국산 양식 생굴과 자연산 생굴을 완전 건조하는 과정에서 진공상태하의 진공열전달특성에 관한 실험적 결과를 보고하였다.

뿜칠 방수 멤브레인은 숏크리트 사이에 시공되어 라이닝 크랙을 통한 누수를 방지하는 목적으로 최근 유럽 국가를 중심으로 시공 사례가 늘어가고 있다. 뿜칠 방수 멤브레인은 방수 시트에 비해 복잡한 단면에도 시공이 용이하기 때문에 이용 사례가 늘어갈 것으로 전망된다. 뿜칠 방수 멤브레인은 폴리머로 구성된 재료로서 투수성이 매우 낮지만 수분의 이동에 의해 포화가 되고 이로인해 콘크리트 재료에 간극수압이나 동결 문제를 일으킬 수 있는 우려가 있다. 본 연구에서는 뿜칠 방수 멤브레인의 수분이동과 계절변화를 고려하여 숏크리트 라이닝의 열-습도 전달 장기 해석을 수행하였다. 해석을 통해 뿜칠 방수 멤브레인의 수분 흡수 작용과 수분 이동으로 인한 상대습도 변화를 고찰할 수 있었으며 이로 인한 장기적 변화를 모사할 수 있었다.
