The effect of particle size and compaction pressure on the thermoelectric properties of n-type $FeSi_2$ was investigated. The starting powders with various particle size were pressed into a compact (compaction pressure; $70{\sim}220kg/cm^2$). The compact specimens were sintered at 1473 K for 7 h and annealed at 1103 K for 100 h under Ar atmosphere to transform to the semiconducting ${\beta}$-phase. The microstructure and phases of the specimens were observed by SEM, XRD and EDS. The electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient were measured simultaneously for the same specimen at r.t.~1023 K in Ar atmosphere. The electrical conductivity increased with decreasing particle size and hence the increases of relative density of the sintered body and the amount of residual metallic phase ${\varepsilon}$-FeSi due to a increase of the electrical conductivity. The Seebeck coefficient exhibited the maximum value at about 700~800 K and decreased with decreasing particle size. This must be due to a increase of residual metallic phase ${\varepsilon}$-FeSi. On the other hand, the change of compaction pressure appeared to have little effect on the thermoelectric properties. Consequently, the power factor would be affected more by particle size than compaction pressure.

This paper presents the experimental study to analyze the pressure and production behavior using depressurization and thermal methods in order to evaluate the hydrate productivity in the 2-D multi-well, plate-type apparatus which has 80 md permeability and 30% hydrate saturation. Injecting methane gas through multi-well allowed to set up the highly saturated hydrate system and combining two different sorts of sands made possible to build up the low permeability system. In this system, both depressurization and electric stimulation methods were applied. When operating pressure was low, according to the depressurization experiments results, the gas recovery was high, however strong pulses which appeared at initial stage of production would damage the operation system. Moreover, cases that hydrate reformed have occurred by endothermic reaction. We have conducted experiments four and six times for the depressurization magnitudes of 140 psi and 320 psi, respectively, to analyze production behavior for the method more in detail. For the cases that the depressurization magnitude was set as 140 psi, the unstable period appears in the results, but stabilized soon. In the experiment results for 320 psi the discontinuous and intermittent behavior has been observed. Thermal stimulation experiments was conducted with depressurizing 80 psi which is the case that shows stable behavior and low recovery. In the results, the gas recovery was high and the energy efficiency was low for long stimulating time. The energy efficiency and gas recovery increased for the soaking time of 1 minute after 2 minute-preheating. In the cases of which the soaking time exceeds 1 minute, energy loss by long soaking time caused low gas recovery and poor energy efficiency.

The expansion work that is wasted through the irreversible expansion through the PC valve of decompression process of the natural gas governor station can be recovered by replacing the process by an isentropic expansion. The energy and exergy analyses for the two decompression process models of power producing and current decompression process model are presented. Analysis results showed that the exergy by gas supply is 56.29%, the exergy by producing power is 32.12 % in case of preheating system and 22.52% in case of non-preheating system. The dead exergy at the PCV is generated much more network. As these results, the usefulness of exergy analysis is verified.

Due to global warming and depletion of fossil fuels, technologies reducing $CO_2$ emission and increasing fuel efficiency simultaneously are required. An exhaust gas heat recovery system is a technology to satisfy both issues. This study analyses three types of heat exchanger installed on an exhaust pipe. In case of plate type heat exchanger, back pressure rapidly increased and maximum cylinder pressure reduced in high speed and maximum load, and back pressure increased over twice and specific fuel consumption also increased up to 2% which were the highest increasing rate. In case of fin tube type, the amounts of exhaust emissions and specific fuel consumption rate were less than the other two types. The effect of shell and tube was in the middle. Making a decision by only the effect on engine performance, a fin tube type is the best for exhaust heat recovery systems.

진공 chamber에서 방전된 plasma 내부를 외부 view port를 통하여 확인하는 것은 극히 제한적이며 leak의 확률을 높이고 plasma의 균일한 방전을 방해한다. 이를 개선하기 위하여 내장형 무선 카메라를 chamber 내부에 위치한 후 고진공 영역에서 촬영을 시도하였으나 일반적인 CCD 카메라로는 촬영할 수 없다. 고진공 영역에서 카메라 내부온도의 급격한 상승이 원인으로 밝혀졌고 적정온도인 $45^{\circ}C$를 초과하여 최대 $96^{\circ}C$까지 4 min 이내에 상승함을 IR camera로 확인할 수 있었으며 이 때 카메라가 작동하지 않았다. 또한 카메라를 고진공 영역에서 촬영 및 녹화하기 위해서는 $46^{\circ}C$의 온도를 낮추어야 함을 진공해제 이후 내부온도가 $50^{\circ}C$로 감소하면서 내장형 무선 카메라가 다시 작동함으로 인해 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 이를 해결하기 위하여 내장형 무선 카메라에 AM 변조 방식의 311 MHz RF remote controller를 장착하여 외부에서 선택적으로 ON/OFF 할 수 있도록 개조하였고 10 L chamber에서 150 L/sec TMP를 이용하여 10-6 Torr의 압력에서 성공적으로 녹화 및 촬영하였다. 또한 내장형 무선 카메라 내부의 반도체 회로 규격 및 발열량과 heat sink의 규격 (열전도도, 복사율)을 추가로 조사하였다. 분자유동 영역에서 열전달은 복사에 의한 영향이 대부분이므로 내장형 무선 카메라 내부 온도를 감소시켜 카메라의 작동 시간을 연장하기 위하여 내부 회로에 emissivity가 높고 전기전도도가 낮아 회로에 영향이 없는 박막을 회로에 증착시키는 추후의 연구가 필요하다.

본고(本稿)에서는 원화표시수입물가지수(貨表示輸入物價指數) 및 단위노동비용(單位勞動費用) 등의 비용요인(費用要因)과 GNP디플레이터로 표시한 물가(物價)와의 관계를 공적분검증방법(共積分檢證方法)으로 살펴보았는데 단위노동비용(單位勞動費用)과 물가간(物價間)에는 유의한 장기적(長期的) 균형관계(均衡關係)가 존재하나 이 관계식(關係式)에 수입물가지수(輸入物價指數)를 추가하기는 곤란한 것으로 나타났으며 수입물가지수(輸入物價指數)와 물가간(物價間)에도 유의한 장기적(長期的) 균형관계(均衡關係)를 발견하지 못하였다. 이에 따라 공적분(共積分)과 오차수정모형(誤差修正模型)을 사용하여 단위노동비용(單位勞動費用)만으로 인플레식(式)을 추정(推定)한 결과 그 적합도가 뛰어난 것으로 나타났다. 추정결과(推定結果)에 의하면 단위노동비용상승(單位勞動費用上昇)의 물가(物價)에 대한 영향은 영구적이며 최조 2년반 동안에 최대로 나타날 뿐 아니라 과도조정(過度調整)(overshooting)현상(現象)이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 비록 90년도의 임금인상(賃金引上)이 상당폭 둔화(鈍化)된다 하더라도 87년 하반기부터 시작된 단위노동비용급증(單位勞動費用急增)의 누적적 효과로 인하여 90년의 상당히 높은 인플레율은 불가피할 것으로 전망되었다. 마지막으로 이와 같은 물가상승압력(物價上昇壓力)을 완화하기 위해서 정책입안자(政策立案者)의 입장에서 본고(本稿)의 연구결과(硏究結果)에 대해 어떠한 해석이 가능한가를 논의하였는데, 정부(政府)의 정책입안자(政策立案者), 기업가(企業家) 및 근로자(勤勞者) 등 각(各) 경제주체(經濟主體)의 단합된 공동노력(共同努力)이 요구되는 것으로 지적되었다.

Press drying was used on italian poplar (Populus euamericana) to find the profitable means of drying. This study was designed to investigate the process of platen drying considering core temperature, drying time, current moisture content, drying rate, shrinkage and recovery, and green volume specific gravity, equilibrium moisture content and dimensional stability of press dried material and air dried material, The drying tests were conducted using 1.5 centimeter thick material at platen temperature of $175^{\circ}C$. The results were summarized as follows. 1. Core temperature was divided into three stages of drying characterized by period initial heating, plateau temperature and rising core temperature. Plateau temperature was 114 to $119^{\circ}C$. 2. The following predicting equations of drying time(y) in different core temperatures were developed for initial thickness($x_1$), initial moisture content ($x_2$) and final moisture content ($x_3$) 3. The predicting equaltion of current moisture content(u) was log u=4.658-0.060t as funtion of drying time(t) and that of drying rate(r) was log r=-2.797-0.049t. Current moisture content and drying rate of air drying were shown in figure 2. 4. The predicting equation of shrinkage in thickness direction(y) was log y=1.933+0.038t as function of drying time(t), and that of expansion in width direction was $y=-0.692+0.043t-0.001t^2$. 5. Thickness shrinkage was increased more than proportional at to pressure increase. Width shrinkage and thickness recovery was greatest at 35psi. 6. Green volume specific gravity of press dried material was 25% greater than that of air dried material. But equilibrium moisture content of press dried material was less 24% than that of air dried material. Antishrinkage efficiency of press dried material were obtained 27.7%.

Differential equations and its numerical solution program using Turbo-C were formulated to describe the radical distribution and average displacement amplitude of vibrating dehydrated contact lens(HEMA) driven by sinusoidal or rectangular pressure. The natural resonant frequency of the lens diaphram(thickness 0.08mm, diameter 14mm, curvature radius 8mm) was measured to be 5730 Hz from the extrapolation of frequency vs addedmass to the diaphram curve. The Young's modulus of the lens was measured to be $4{\times}10^9$ Pa with altering the original shape. The effect of parameters such as thickness, effective radius, damping coeff., amplitude of driving pressure on the vibration characteristics was illustrated by the computer simulation of the derived program. When the frequency of driving pressure coincides with the integral multiple of fundamental resonance frequency of the lens the wave pattern changes from arc to bell-shape along the radial position of the diaphram. If this happens to the contact lens on the cornea in vivo, it might create the feel of pull of the lens due to the increased rise of central part of the lens.
