목질계바이오매스 중 목재펠릿은 '탄소중립(Carbon Neutral)' 연료로써 온실가스 감축 의무에 대응 가능한 에너지원이다. 하지만 목질계바이오매스 연소 시 발생되는 타르는 보일러 내부에 누적되어 효율을 감소시킨다. 타르 및 연소 불꽃에 의한 효율 감소를 최소화하기 위해 반대측면에 내화재(Castable)를 적용하여 실험하였으며 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 구조변경 분석이 실시되었다. 적용된 내화재는 비중이 낮고 단열성이 우수하여 열손실을 막아 연료비 절감의 효과를 가져 오며, 연소실 내부 청소 면적 감소로 인한 경제적 효과도 기대 할 수 있다. 분석결과를 이용하여 최적화된 펠릿보일러가 제작되었으며, 실험을 통하여 200시간 가동 후 열효율 감소량이 나타났다. 단위시간별 동일한 외부환경(산화제량, 부하, 주변 온도, 펠릿소비량)에서 실험이 진행 되었으며, 타르생성이전(Non-tar), 이후(Tar-existence) 보일러의 열효율 성능 비교실험이 실시되었다. 실험결과 타르생성이전 조건에서 구조변경 전 후 보일러의 열효율은 각각 91.87%, 90.73%로 확인되었으며, 타르생성이후 조건에서 각각 82.68%, 83.27%의 열효율을 확인하였다. 타르생성이전 대비 이후 조건에서 열효율 감소량은 각각 9.19%p, 7.46%p로 구조변경 전 대비 변경 후 보일러의 열효율이 약 1.73%p 더 적게 감소됨을 확인되었으며, 시뮬레이션 결과 타르생성이전 조건에서 구조변경 전 후 보일러의 효율은 각각 91.83%, 92.05%로 확인되었으며 타르 생성이후 조건에서 각각 85.25%, 87.43%의 열효율을 확인하였다. 타르생성이전 대비 이후 조건에서 열효율 감소량은 각각 6.58%, 4.62%로 구조변경 전 대비 변경 후 보일러의 열효율이 약 1.96%p 더 적게 감소됨을 확인하였다.

Constructed wetlands are well known as highly efficient system to treat wastewater from different sources. Among the constructed wetlands, upflow types of constructed wetlands have become a common selection of wastewater during the last decade. We conducted a pilot scale study at peen house on treating potential of nutrients by upflow vegetated filter(UVF) pilot wetland which was combined with hydrodynamic separator and used the cattail plant(Typha angustifolia), and operated with artificial nutrients influent. This study evaluate the performances of upflow vegetated fille, in removal of nutrients. The objectives of this study were two-fold: (i) to evaluate the nutrients removal performance of pilot-scale upflow vegetated filter, filled with a mixture of perlite and soil media and planted with cattails and (ii) to design of scale-up upflow vegetated filter using Froude number. Results indicated that, under the condition of the ranges of hydraulic surface load rate were $22.7{\pm}9.6\;m^3/m^2/day$, the average removal of $COD_{Mn}$, and TN, TP were 57.5%, 40.0% and 41.5%, respectively. Computational fluid dynamics, FLUENT 6.0 program was used to predict the distribution of velocity in UVF and hydrodynamic separator. Full scale UVF was designed using the Froude number scale-up method that was assumed geomertic similarity between model and prototype. Result shows that the UVF with 3 m diameter has capacity of design sewage flowrate 75 $m^3/day$.

An energy pile is one of the novel ground heat exchangers (GHEX's) that is a economical alternative to the conventional closed-loop vertical GHEX. The combined system of both a structural foundation and a GHEX contains a heat exchange pipe inside the pile foundation and allows a working fluid circulating through the pipe, inducing heat exchange with the ground formation. In this paper, a group of energy piles equipped with parallel U-type (5, 8 and 10 pairs) heat exchange pipes was constructed in a test-bed by fabricating in large-diameter cast-in-place concrete piles. In addition, a closed-loop vertical GHEX with 30m depth was constructed nearby to conduct in-situ thermal response tests (TRTs) and to compare with the thermal performance of the cast-in-place energy piles. A series of thermal performance tests was carried out with application of an artificial cooling and heating load to evaluate the heat exchange rate of energy piles. The applicability of cast-in-place energy piles was evaluated by comparing the relative heat exchange efficiency and heat exchange rate with preceding studies. Finally, it is concluded that the cast-in-place energy piles constructed in the test-bed demonstrate effective and stable thermal performance compared with the other types of GHEX.

일반적으로 스피커를 동작시키게 되면, 스피커 보이스 코일에 열이 발생하게 되고, 열에 의한 보이스코일의 저항의 증가가 나타나게 되는데, 기존의 연구는 저음용 스피커(Woofer) 만을 대상으로 스피커의 음향특성 변화들에 관해 수행되었다. 그러나, 현대의 스피커는 A/V시스템분야의 발전에 따라 고음재생의 충실도가 강조되고 있는 경향이므로, 고음용 스피커(Tweeter)에 대한 열 발생의 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구에서는 고음용 스피커의 입력전력에 따른 특성 변화를 조사하고, 입력전력의 증가로 인한 보이스코일(voice coil)의 저항 증가에 따른 고음용 스피커의 특성변화에 관해 실험하였다. 그리고, 스피커의 진동에 의한 펌프(pump) 역할을 이용하는 냉각용 구멍을 뚫어 스피커의 특성변화를 검토하였다. 실험대상으로는 직경 25mm의 돔(Dome)형 진동판을 가진 고음용 스피커와 이 스피커의 후면 중심부에 구멍을 뚫어 열 방출구가 형성된 3종의 시료를 대상으로 특성변화를 비교$\cdot$측정하였다. 여기에서, 사용된 시료는 국내 Y사의 판매용 고음용 스피커로 제품의 원 상태인, 구멍이 없는 것을 기준시료로 하고, 이와 동일한 제품들의 후면에 각각 직경 5mm, 10mm, 15mm의 구멍을 가공하여 비교시료로 하였다. 기준 및 비교시료의 스피커 특성을, 한국산업규격 KS C 6027의 측정법에 따라, 입력 1W 상태에서 기준시료의 사양을 측정하였고[1], 입력을 0.5W, 1W, 2W, 4W, 8W, 16W로 가하여, 시료별 입력증가에 따른 스피커의 주파수 응답특성, 임피던스(Impedance), 조화 왜(Harmonic Distortion)의 변화율 측정을 통해 스피커의 특성변화 정도를 검토하였다. 향후, 본 연구의 결과는 고음용 스피커의 특성 열화에 대한 예측 및 개선 방안을 제시하는 기본 자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.용하여 현금흐름예측을 할 수 있는 Model을 제시하였다. 특히 건설공사의 현금흐름 예측의 중요한 요소인 Cash-Out에 대하여, 공사비 구성요소인 자재, 노무, 중기, 외주, 경비등 각 Resource의 보할(Weights)을 실 공사원가에 따른 보할의 변화와 Resource들의 Time Lag를 적용 기존 연구자의 Model과 다른 Model을 제시하였다. 또한 기존 연구자들의 Model과 비교하여 편리성, 정확도 및 신뢰성이 높은 Model임도 증명하였다.세대까지도 발현수준이 유지될 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 연구결과는 계통으로 확립된 형질전환 동물에 부여된 새로운 유전형질은 지속적으로 후대로 유전될 수 있음을 제시한다.잖⨀瘀Ā퀇Āゑ잖⨀Ā퀇Ԁ￿™잖⨀䌀Ā퀇ĀꄏĀꀏꄏĀꀏ₱?⨀Ā Ԁ￿䂱?⨀ऀĀ耀Ā삱?⨀؀Ā Ā?⨀ጀĀ耀Ā?돀ꢘ?⨀硩?⨀ႎ?⨀?⨀넆돐쁖잖⨀쁖잖⨀／ࠐ?⨀焆덐瀆倆Āⶇ퍟ⶇ퍟ĀĀĀĀ磀鲕좗?⨀肤?⨀⁅Ⴅ?⨀쀃잖⨀䣙熸ጁ↏?⨀

One of recent concerns for super-tall buildings is how to manage hoisting plans and equipment efficiently. Disasters are frequently occurred in relation to electromotive hoists and cranes which are commonly used in construction sites. For construction lifts, particularly, it is highly important to conduct regular inspections or prepare against breakdown in terms of safety. However, unfortunately the reality is that regular inspections are only flatly conducted according to operating hours only. A lift, whose life span is subject to the complicated considerations such as operating hours, loading condition, and the like of each component, is far too invalid as a means of maintenance. As a way to resolve this problem and improve its convenience and safety for users, this study intends to calculate individual inspection interval for the main components of lifts by measuring their actual operating hours with sensing technology and analyzing their historical data. The findings of study include calculation of inspection intervals for the main components of lifts and classification of components to check by the actual operating hours of lift (40, 90, 130, 400 hours), which are drawn up into tables. This will make an opportunity to suggest efficient maintenance measures by enabling prevention of safety accidents and enhancement of safety for workers. Also, it will lead to increasing productivity of works by eliminating sources of delaying the term due to the breakdown of lifts.

Due to the global warming and energy exhaustion, energy efficiency improvement of construction is recognized the stream of times. To improve the efficiency of the building, in order to energy saving, passive elements should be applied. Then the first step be supposed that applying the new standards about the insulation boundary. The current insulation boundary standards are not reasonable as well as does not divide the purposes. As a result, energy is being wasted and many civil complaints are also occurred. To improve these problems, applying the insulation boundary need to divide the heating and non-heating and subdivide the purpose of construction. In this study, accurate real heating and air conditioning areas are presented that work on the new insulation boundary of purposes and applicable standards. This proposed, by the real heating and air conditioning areas, insulation boundary of purposes, matching the reasonable capacity and load of equipment, by working on standards by optimal maintenance can be energy saving, to present guidelines that environment improvement of actual residents as well as energy saving be expected.

In a biological aerated filter (BAF) packed with ceramic media (void fraction of BAF=0.32), nitrite accumulation was studied with the variation of hydraulic retention time (HRT) and superficial air velocity. Synthetic ammonium wastewater and petrochemical wastewater were fed at a constant load of $1.6kgNH_4^+-N/m^3{\cdot}d$. Ammonium removal rate was mainly affected by the superficial air velocity in BAF, but nitrite ratio($NO_2-N/NO_x-N$) in the effluent was dependent on both HRT and superficial air velocity. For a fixed HRT of 0.23 hr (corresponding to the empty bed contact time of 0.7 hr) ammonium removal rate was 73/90/92％ and nitrite ratio was 0.92/0.82/0.48 at the superficial air velocity of 0.23/0.45/0.56 cm/s, respectively. When HRT is increased to 0.9 hr with superficial air velocity ranging from 0.34 to 0.45 cm/s, the ammonium removal rate was 89％ on average. However nitrite ratio decreased significantly down to 0.13. When HRT was further increased to 1.4 hr, ammonium removal rate decreased, thereby resulting in the free ammonia ($NH_3-N$, FA) build-up and nitrite ratio gradually increased (>0.95). Although aeration rate and FA concentration at HRT of 0.23 hr were unfavorable for nitrite accumulation compared with those at HRT of 0.9 hr, nitrite ratio at HRT of 0.23 hr was higher. Taken together, HRT and nitrogen load were found to be critical, in addition to FA concentration and aeration condition, for nitrite accumulation in the BAF tested in the present study.

The present study was designed to observe the thermal dynamics of core and skin temperatures during sub-maximal treadmill exercise; to investigate the effect of regional body cooling during short rest after the treadmill exercise on the thermal dynamics. Three conditions (No cooling, Head/Hand cooling, Leg cooling) were simulated in a climatic chamber at 24±1℃ and 50±5%RH. Subjects performed two bouts of treadmill exercise at a rate of 80%HR_max followed by rest. Body cooling with a hood, long gloves, and a blanket that circulated water set at 15℃ was assigned during two bouts of rest. The results showed that (1) rectal temperature (T_re) did not show significant difference between three conditions; (2) Skin temperatures had specific features, depending on body regions. In particular, the initial fall phenomena of skin temperatures at the onset of exercise were noteworthy in the chest, thigh, calf, and finger tip. Of these, the most significant initial fall was found in finger temperature (T_fing). (3) During the period of the initial fall in skin temperatures, T_re gradually increased. (4) The magnitude of the fall of T_fing at the onset of 2^nd running was on average 4.8, 5.1 and 3.4℃ for Control, HH cooling, and Leg cooling, respectively (p<0.05). The initial drop of T_fing at the onset of running was maintained for an average of 8.1, 7.9 and 6.3 minutes for Control, HH cooling, and Leg cooling, with no significant differences. In conclusion, the initial fall phenomena at the onset of treadmill exercise reflected non-thermal factors, as opposed to internal thermal status. The magnitude of the initial fall in T_fing was affected by legs cooling. Therefore, the initial fall phenomenon should be considered when interpreting the thermal status of the shell during heavy works/exercises that assigned with intermittent regional body cooling.

The nutrient recovery in phosphate crystallization process was investigated by using laboratory scale uptlow reactors, adopting sequencing batch type configuration. The industrial waste lime was used as potential cation source with magnesium salt($MgCl_2$) as control. The research was focused on its successful application in a novel integrated sludge treatment process, which is comprised of a high performance fermenter followed by a crystallization reactor. In the struvite precipitation test using synthetic wastewater first, which has the similar characteristics with the real fermentation effluent, the considerable nutrient removal(about 60%) in both ammonia and phosphate was observed within $0.5{\sim}1$ hr of retention time. The results also revealed that a minor amount(<5%) of ammonia stripping naturally occurred due to the alkaline(pH 9) characteristic in feed substrate. Stripping of $CO_2$ by air did not increase the struvite precipitation rate but it led to increased ammonia removal. In the second experiment using the fermentation effluent, the optimal dosage of magnesium salt for struvite precipitation was 0.86 g Mg $g^{-1}$ P, similar to the mass ratio of the struvite. The optimal dosage of waste lime was 0.3 g $L^{-1}$, resulting in 80% of $NH_4-N$ and 41% of $PO_4-P$ removal, at about 3 hrs of retention time. In the microscopic analysis, amorphous crystals were mainly observed in the settled solids with waste lime but prism-like crystals were observed with magnesium salt. Based on mass balance analysis for an integrated sludge treatment process(fermenter followed by crystallization reactor) for full-scale application(treatment capacity Q=158,880 $m^3\;d^{-1}$), nutrient recycle loading from the crystallization reactor effluent to the main liquid stream would be significantly reduced(0.13 g N and 0.19 g P per $m^3$ of wastewater, respectively). The results of the experiment reveal therefore that the reuse of waste lime, already an industrial waste, in a nutrient recovery system has various advantages such as higher economical benefits and sustainable treatment of the industrial waste.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the physiological responses following acute and chronic Nurida-ball exercise to measure the relative exercise intensity and health-related fitness in middle-aged men. In study 1, eight middle-aged men carried out acute Nurida-ball exercise for 30 min. The physiological responses were normalized and compared with a graded treadmill exercise test (GXT) to evaluate the relative exercise intensity. In study 2, twelve middle-aged men were divided into two groups: Nurida-ball exercise group (NB, n=6) and control group (CON, n=6). NB group performed the Nurida-ball exercise for 8 weeks (30min/day, 3 days/week). And then, we measured the body composition, cardiovascular factors, blood lipid factors, and muscle damage markers to confirm the exercise efficiency. In study 1, the related exercise intensity of acute Nurida-ball is the range of GXT-HRpeak (55~85%) and $GXT-VO_2peak$(23~61%). The change in body fat-related factors was significantly lower in the NB compared to the CON group. Moreover, TC and LDL were decreased whereas BMC was increased in the NB group after Nurida-ball exercise. The change in VEpeak and performance time of GXT were significantly greater in the NB compared to the CON group. The performance time of GXT was increased in the NB group after Nurida-ball exercise. Our results indicated that Nurida-ball exercise would be effective equipment for the improvement of health-related fitness. Especially, Nurida-ball exercise can affect body composition and cardiovascular function, which might alleviate metabolic syndrome-related diseases in middle-aged men.
