Silicon carbide (SiC) has recently drawn an enormous industrial interest because of its useful mechanical properties such as thermal resistance, abrasion resistance and thermal conductivity at high temperature. Especially, high purity SiC is applicable to the fields of power semiconductor and lighting emitting diode (LED). In this work, high purity carbon powders as raw material for high purity SiC were prepared by a RF induction thermal plasma. Dodecane ($C_{12}H_{26}$) as hydrocarbon liquid precursor has been utilized for synthesis of high purity carbon powders. It is found that the filtercollected carbon powders showed smaller particle size (10~20 nm) and low crystallinity compared to the reactor-collected carbon powders. The purities of reactor-collected and filter-collected carbon powders were 99.9997 % (5N7) and 99.9993 % (5N3), respectively. In addition, the impurities of carbon powders synthesized by RF induction thermal plasma were mainly originated from the surrounding environment.

Bayesian information criterion is used to do clustering for time series data. To acquire more stable clusters, multiple seeds are chosen first for the algorithm. Once clusters being set up, most similar time series data in the cluster to the one under consideration are to be chosen for prediction test. These chosen time series data are used to extract valid Markov rules by which we test the prediction accuracy. We confirmed that clustering with multiple seeds led to better prediction performance.

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), driven by high density water sinking around Greenland serves as a global climate regulator, because it transports heat and materials in the climate system. We analyzed the mechanism of AMOC on a decadal time scale simulated with the HadGEM2-AO model. The lead-lag regression analysis with AMOC index shows that the decadal variability of the thermohaline circulation in the Atlantic Ocean can be considered as a self-sustained variability. This means that the long-term change of AMOC is related to the instability which is originated from the phase difference between the meridional temperature gradient and the ocean circulation. When the overturning circulation becomes stronger, the heat moves northward and decreases the horizontal temperature-dominated density gradients. Subsequently, this leads to weakening of the circulation, which in turn generates the anomalous cooling at high latitudes and, thereby strengthening the AMOC. In this mechanism, the density anomalies at high latitudes are controlled by the thermal advection from low latitudes, meaning that the variation of the AMOC is thermally driven and not salinity driven.

유도가열은 석유, 가스 등의 연료를 사용하는 종래의 설비에 비해 에너지 효율이 높고 관리가 수월하며, 공해를 유발하지 않는 등의 많은 장점으로 인해 산업 분야에 다양하게 응용되어 사용하고 있다. 유도가열의 원리는 전자유도작용을 이용하여 와전류에 의한 손실과, 히스테리시스 손실에 의한 주울열이 발생하는데, 이렇게 발생된 열로 가열하는 방법이며 가열 속응성, 고효율, 친환경, 안정성의 장점을 갖는다. 그러나 공진형 유도가열 인버터 시스템은 환경의 변화나 피가열체의 부식 등의 이유로 공진주파수가 변하는 단점이 있다. 따라서 기존의 단점을 극복하기 위해 자동으로 공진점을 추종할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였고, 기존의 복잡한 제어회로나 알고리즘을 극복하여 시스템의 간소화를 실현하였다.

본 논문은 농축도 0.9%의 순환우라늄 핵연료(CANFLEX-RU)에 대한 축방향 출력분포(AFD) 및 반경방향 출력분포(RFD) 특성을 조사하고 CANFLEX-RU 다발이 장전된 CANDU줄 채널의 예비 열수력 해석을 수행하였다. CANFLEX-RU 다발의 4 bundle shift 핵연료 교체 방법에 따라 AFD 분포 특성은 정점(Peak) 열속이 채널 상류쪽으로 이동하였고 채널 중심 부근에서 평탄하거나 다소 오목한 형상을 보여주었다. RFD 분포를 표현하는 적절한 변수로서 국부 다발열유속비를 정의하고, 이 비와 국부 표면열유속비의 상호 관계식을 도출하였다. 연소도에 따른 최외환봉의 국부 다발열유속비 변화를 조사한 결과로서, CANFLEX-RU 다발의 최대 국부 다발열유속비는 초기 연소도에서 발생되었고 이 값 CANFLEX-NU 다발 보다는 크고 37-핵연료봉다발 보다는 작았다. CCP 계산시에 RFD 분포 효과를 고려하는 방안으로서 최외환봉 열유속을 다발의 국부 열유속으로 가정하였다 이는 임계열유속이 -10.2% 감소한 조건을 사용하여 CCP를 계산하는 결과가 되었다. 다발-블균형 계수를 이용한 CCP 민감도 결과와 본 계산에서 얻은 CCP 결과에 의하면, CANFLEX-RU의 CCP 는 CANFLEX-NU에 비교해서 土1.0% 이내로 근사한 분포가 예상되었으며 이는 AFD 분포 효과가 RFD 분포에 의한 CCP 감소를 보상하기 때문이다. 결론적으로, CANFLEX-RU는 열수력적 설계 관점에서 CANFLEX-NU에 비교해서 열적 성능이 저하되지 않았고 따라서 기존 37-핵연료봉다발에 대한 CANFLEX-NU의 열여유도 증가와 같은 장점을 유지할 것으로 예상되었다.

Background : The heat shock protein (HSP) 70 families are known to protect cells against the irreversible tissue injury induced by stress and to induce the recovery of cell function during stress. Heat pretreatment was reported to decrease the acute lung injury (ALI) of rats induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). However, the role of heat shock with LPS co-treatmenton ALI is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of heat treatment, which was given immediately after the beginning of ALI induced by LPS intratracheally administered in rats. Methods : Either saline (saline group) or LPS was intratracheally instilled without heat treatment (LPS group). In addition, heat was conducted 18 hours prior to the instillation of LPS (pre-treatment group) and conducted immediately after instillation of LPS (co-treatment group). Six hours after the LPS or saline treatment, blood, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and lung tissue samples were obtained. The myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and the heat shock protein expression in the lung tissue, the differential counts of the polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) in the BAL fluids, and the LDH, protein, $IL-1{\beta}$, $TNF-{\alpha}$ and IL-10 levels in BAL fluid and serum were measured. Results : 1) The MPO activity, the differential PMN counts in the BAL fluid, BAL fluid and serum cytokines were higher in the LPS, the heat pre-treatment and co-treatment group than those of the saline group (p value <0.05). 2) The MPO activity and the protein level in the BAL fluid from the heat co-treatment group were similar to those of the LPS group. 3) The serum $TNF-{\alpha}$ level of the heat co-treatment group was significantly higher than that of the LPS group (p=0.01). Conclusion : Heat shock response administered immediately after a LPS instillation did not attenuate the ALI in this model.

Chemical properties such as heat of formation and density of methylnitroimidazole derivatives were predicted and analyzed by using density functional theory (DFT). Successive addition of energetic nitro groups into an imidazole ring increases both the heat of formation and the density. Using the chemical property values computed by DFT, explosive performance was analyzed with the Cheetah program, and compared with those of TNT, RDX, and HMX, which are currently used widely in military systems. When both C-J pressure and detonation velocity were used as explosive performance, methyldinitroimidazole derivatives show better performance than TNT, while methyltrinitroimidzole is almost close to RDX. Since methylnitroimidazole derivatives have a good merit, i.e. low melting point for melt loading, they are forecasted to be used widely in various military and civilian application.
