The oxidizing species are generated from the radiolysis of groundwater in the pore of buffer material around the canister used for the disposal of spent fuels. A mathematical model was introduced to calculate the cathodic current density induced by the oxidant around the canister, which determined the corrosion of carbon steel. An analytical solution was derived to get the cathodic current density in the cylindrical coordinate. The cathodic current densities from both the rectangular coordinate and cylindrical coordinate were compared with each other. The source terms and absorbed dose rate for the calculation of the radiolysis were calculated using the ORIGEN2 and MCNP computer code, respectively. The radius of the canister was determined with the new model in order to prevent the local corrosion. The results showed that the new solution made the cathodic current density around 25 % lower than the Marsh model.

This study estimated the optimal rain gauge density and sub-basin size for the application of a daily rainfall-runoff analysis model called SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool). Simulated rainfall data using a WGR multi-dimensional precipitation model (Waymire et al., 1984) were applied to SWAT for runoff estimation, and then the runoff error was analyzed with respect to various rain gauge density and sub-basin size. As results of the study, we could find that the optimal sub-basin size and the representative area of one rain gauge are similar to be about $80km^2$ for the Yong-Dam dam basin.

In contracts for sales of natural gas between sellers and buyers, it is not suncient to only measure a volumetric quantity of gas in flowing conditions in metering station. Therefore the measured volumetric quantity must be converted to that of reference conditions. The density of the natural gas required in such a calculation can be measured directly or estimated from the equation of sate or any other experimental methods. The specific gravity meter is the apparatus used to measure the density of fluids under the reference conditions and it can be widely used in industrial areas, especially in massive flow rate natural gas industry. This study has been carried out in an attempt to improve measurement accuracy of natural gas flow rate calculation, providing the adequate installation and proper operation conditions of specific gravity meter. The test results are 1) the density measurement errors in case of using methane and standard gas as calibration gases are smaller than using methane and nitrogen gas, 2) the periodical calibration to maintain accurate density measurements is essential, and 3) the specific gravity meter is sensitive to changes of environmental conditions, especially environmental temperature surrounding the specific gravity meter.

New method of volume measurement for reference weights of a pressure balance using a gas pycnometer is proposed. The result of volume measurement of proposed method shows the uncertainties of approximately 0.2% at the level of confidence of 95% for reference weights in the ranges of 1 kg, 2 kg, and 5 kg. This measuring system consists of a sample chamber, an expansion chamber, a precision pressure gage, a precison thermometer, a vacuum pump, and helium as a medium gas. The measurement principle of this proposed method is based on Boyle's law. This method will contribute a reliability of the volume measurements of reference weights for a pressure balance to the national measurement standard.

해안방조제에서 해수가 강물에 유출되는 현상은 생태계의 변화를 초래하고 강물을 농업에 이용할 수 없게 한다. 이런 현상을 방지하기 위하여 해수의 유출수량을 예측할 필요가 있다. 해수와 강물 사이의 지하수 흐름은 염도에 따른 밀도의 차이를 고려하여 연구되어야 한다. 또한, 담수와 염수의 혼합에 따른 물질의 이송 및 분산도 고려하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 염도에 의한 밀도 차이에 따른 지하수의 흐름을 나타내는 지배방정식을 이용하여, 해안방조제에서의 해수가 강물로 유출되는 현상을 수치모사하였다. 수치모사 결과, 밀도 차이를 고려하지 않았을 때 발견할 수 없었던 지하수의 흐름이 생겼고, 밀도 차이로 인하여 해수의 유출 수량이 증가하였다. 따라서, 해안방조제의 해수의 유출수량 연구에서는 반드시 밀도 차이를 고려하여야 한다.

To develop a technique of theoretical alpha track density calculation for comparison with measured track density, an electrostatic ion spectrometer was specially designed and fabricated. The mobility spectrum of first radon daughter(Po-218) in the range of $0.07{\sim}5.0cm^2/V\;s$ from the radon chamber was measured using-the electrostatic ion spectrometer. Measurement was taken in a radon chamber operated using dry particle free air passed through silica gel, activated charcoal and molecular sieve filters. The mobility of a new-born Po-218 ion measured by the electrostatic ion spectrometer was determined to be $1.92cm^2/V\;s$. A comparison of the theoretical and measured alpha track densities was completed and uncertainties concerning the shape of the spectrum were analyzed. It was found that the discrepancies in track densities are primarily Que to the neglect of wall loss of ions in the theoretical track density calculation.

The mixture density data for poly(lactide-co-glycolide) [PLGA] with supercritical $CO_2$, CHF$_3$ and CHClF$_2$ were obtained in the temperature range of 27 to 10$0^{\circ}C$ and at pressures as high as 3000 bar (PLGA$_{x}$, Where the molar concentration of glycolide in the backbone, x, range from 0 to 50 mol%). The PLA-$CO_2$, PLA-CHF$_3$, and PLA-CHClF$_2$ systems dissolve in the pressure less than 1430 below 700, and below 100 bar, respectively. The mixture density shows from 1.084 to 1.334 g/cm$^3$ at temperatures from 27 to 93$^{\circ}C$. The PLGA$_{15}$ -$CO_2$ mixture dissolves at pressures of below 1900 bar and the mixture density is in the range of 1.158 to 1.247 g/cm$^3$ at temperatures between 37 and 92$^{\circ}C$. The solubilities of the PLGA$_{25}$ for $CO_2$, CHF$_3$, and CHClF$_2$ are shown to pressure as high as 2390, 1470, and 118 bar, respectively, and the mixture density exhibits iron 1.154 to 1.535 g/cm$^3$ at temperatures from 29 to 81$^{\circ}C$. The PLGA$_{50}$-$CO_2$ system does not dissolve at 24$0^{\circ}C$ and 3000 bar while the PLGA$_{50}$-CHCIF$_2$ does easily at 5$0^{\circ}C$ and 100 bar. The mixture density for the PLGA-CHClF$_2$ system increases even at low pressures as the glycolide molar concentration increases.es.es.

To better understand the subsurface geological structure of the Kunsan Basin in the Yellow Sea, the mean depths of the density discontinuous layers (DDLs) of the Kunsan Basin were calculated by power spectrum analysis using satellite altimetry gravity data. The calculated mean depths of DDLs were -1.1km, -3.4km, -9.1km and -31.0km. The mean depth of -1.1km DDL was interpreted as regional unconformity shown in about 1 second in two way travel time (TWTT) in the seismic reflection profiles, and the mean depth of -3.4km DDL was also interpreted as top of the acoustic basement in the seismic reflection profiles. Comparing with well data, seismic reflection profiles and regional geology in the study area, the mean depth of -9.1km DDL was interpreted as top of the igneous origin basement. This means that the acoustic basement of the study area is composed mainly of sediments which are disregarded in previous study. The mean depth of -31.0km DDL was interpreted as the Moho discontinuity because this mean depth is similar to one of the normal continental crust thickness. The detection of top of the igneous origin basement suggests that oil gas potential analysis in Kunsan Basin needs to be extended to the deeper part of sediments (acoustic basement).

In this study, densities of water + N-Methyldiethanolamine (MDEA), Water + 2-Amino-2-Methyl-1-Propanol (AMP), MDEA + AMP binary systems and Water+MDEA+AMP ternary system were measured over the full range of composition at temperatures from 303.15 K to 333.15 K by using an Anton Paar digital vibrating tube densimeter (DMA4500). The experimental excess volumes have been obtained from the experimental density results and have been fitted using the Redlich-Kister-Muggianu expression. The parameters obtained from the binary excess volume data were used for the correlation of ternary system with one additional ternary parameter for each isotherm. All investigated binary and ternary systems are completely miscible, because the values of excess volume are negative under the examined conditions.

Spray characteristics of single round jet with liquid nitrogen and coaxial spray with liquid nitrogen and gaseous argon were observed. Shadowgraph method was used for spray visualization, and density gradient magnitude image was used to analyse the result. In subcritical condition, irregularity of the jet surface was harder in the coaxial spray. In supercritical condition, diffusion of nitrogen injected from shear coaxial injector was faster than single jet. Jet diameter was induced by averaging images, in supercritical condition, difference of diameter of coaxial jet was rapidly decreased than that of single jet.
