A flow sensor has been fabricated by preparing thin film Pt-heater and Bi-Sb thermocouples array on 150 nm-$Si_{3}N_{4}$/300 nm-$SiO_{2}$/150 nm-$Si_{3}N_{4}$ dielectric diaphragm which has low thermal conductivity and balanced stress with silicon substrate for the purpose of improving the thermal isolation between heater and silicon substrate. Pt-heater showed nonlinear I-V characteristics due to the thermal isolation effect of the diaphragm. Its temperature coefficient of resistance was about $0.00378\;/^{\circ}C$ and Seebeck coefficient of Bi-Sb thermocouple was about $97\;{\mu}V/K$. The sensor showed that thermoelectric voltage decreased as thermal conductivity of gas increased, and flow sensitivity increased as heater voltage increased or as the distance between heater and thermocouple decreased. When heater voltage was about 2.5 V, $N_{2}$-flow sensitivity and thermal response time of the sensor were about $1.27\;mV{\cdot}(sccm)^{-1/2}$ and 0.13 sec., respectively.

Energy Balance Model (EBM) was used to experiment the distribution of surface equilibrium temperature which responds to external forcing associated with the surface characteristics. Surface equilibrium temperature is calculated as sum of incoming solar radiation and latitudinal transport is balanced with outgoing infrared radiation. To treat incoming solar radiation, the source of the earth energy, significantly for energy balance, the experiment for surface equilibrium temperature distribution was performed considering the energy balance with the latitudinal albedo change as well as land and sea distribution. In addition, linear albedo change experiment, arctic albedo 5%, 10%, 15% change experiments and the opposite albedo change experiments between arctic and mid-latitudes were performed using incoming solar radiation as an external forcing. Moreover, with and without ice-albedo feedback experiments were performed. Increasing of arctic albedo is blocked out the incoming solar radiation so that it induces decreasing of latitudinal heat transport. It is strengthened energy transport from low latitudes by keeping arctic low energy states. Therefore the temperature change in the mid-latitudes exhibits larger response than that of arctic due to the difference of transport. The land which has lower heat capacity than sea can be reach to equilibrium temperature shortly. Also land is more sensitive to temperature change with respects to albedo. Thus it induces the thermal difference between land and sea. As a result, the equilibrium temperature exhibits differently as the difference of albedo and heat capacity which are the one of surface characteristics. Surface equilibrium temperature decreases as albedo increase and the ratio of temperature change is large as heat capacity is small. The decreasing of surface equilibrium temperature with respects to increasing of linear albedo is accelerated by ice-albedo feedback. However local change of surface equilibrium temperature decreases non-linearly.

The existence of high temperature equipment such as steam pipe, deaerator, steam storage tanks and main steam stop valves makes relatively higher workplace temperature in a power plant of the turbine building. In order to cool down the air temperature in the turbine building, the outside air flow with lower temperature passes through the window and the hotter air in the building is extracted to the outside by installing the ventilation fan on the roof. Nevertheless, higher temperature regions near the high temperature equipment still exist in the turbine building and additional fans for the temperature reduction in the higher temperature region should be examined for the optimal location and mass flow rate. The purpose of the present study is to suggest the optimized location and capacity of the additional ventilation fans for a comfortable working environment. From the present study, it has been elucidated that the additional ventilation fans might be located near the high temperature deaerator and it could reduce the mean temperature in the turbine building by $3.0^{\circ}C$ and the temperature near the deaerator could be reduced by $4.2^{\circ}C$.

In this study, CFD computer simulations by FDS are carried out in order to confirm the performance of the combined operation of both sprinkler system and smoke curtain of 0.54 m depth installed for cooling and blocking the smoke which propagates beneath the sloped ceiling of a stairway corridor of which dimensions are 17.92 m long, 4.00 m wide, and 6.12 m high. It is shown that the response time of sprinklers decreases with fire size and it increases more about 1.1 second in case without smoke curtain than in case with smoke curtain, that the time of smoke transport from the fire source to the stairway outlet decreases considerably with fire size, and that the delay effect of smoke transport is not related to the sprinkler system, whether it is operated or not. This study shows that the combined operation of both sprinkler system and smoke curtain is very effective in smoke cooling, but it is a little for effect on smoke blockage. Although the hazard of skin burn due to radiative heat flux from hot smoke layer is decreased by spray cooling effect, the hazard of smoke suffocation and the weakening of visibility is increased by smoke downdrag and the turbulence of smoke-air mixing due to water spray. These conditions may result in preventing occupants from going out of the stairway during evacuation.

The cooling effect of a fog cooling system has a close relationship to air flow and relative humidity in the greenhouse. From the VETH chart for cooling design, a cooling efficiency can be improved by means of increasing the air exchange rate and the amount of sprayed water. In the no shading experimental greenhouse by time control, when average air exchange rate was 0.77 times.min$^{-1}$ and spray water amount was 2,009g, inside temperature of the greenhouse was 31$^{\circ}C$ that was almost close to outside temperature and cooling efficiency was 82%. When average air exchange rate was close to temperature of the greenhouse that was no cooling and 70% shading greenhouse environment. When average air exchange rate was 2.59times.min$^{-1}$ , spray water amount was 2,009g and shading rate was 70%, inside relative humidity of the greenhouse was increased was 2,009 g and shading rate was 70%, inside relative humidity of the greenhouse was increased, but temperature was not decreased. When average air exchange rate was 2.33 times.min$^{-1}$ and spray water amount was 2,009g, inside temperature was 31.4 and at that time maximum wind speed at the air inlet of greenhouse was 1.9m.s$^{-1}$ . Since time controller sprayed amount of constant water at a given interval, some of sprayed water remained not to be evaporated, which increased relative humidity and decreased cooling efficiency. Because the shading screen prevented air flow in the greenhouse, it also caused the evaporation efficiency to be decreased. In order to increase cooling efficiency, it was necessary to study on controling by relative humidity and air circulation in the greenhouse.

In this study, we developed a system that automatically removes the scale in the piping by using electrolysis principle in order to solve the cooling performance of the refrigeration and air conditioning system by acting as heat resistance in the heat transfer process by forming the scale in the heat exchanger for refrigeration air conditioning. We want to check the performance through experiments. Therefore, by circulating the treated water using the principle of electrolysis without stopping the system, Ca, Mg and $SiO_2$ are precipitated in the form of solids and discharged to the outside of the pipe system, thereby preventing scale formation in the pipe and removing the scale. Thereby maintaining the heat transfer performance of the pipe. As a result of the experiment, the heat transfer rate of the scaled pipe was 86.66% when the heat transfer rate of the new pipe was 100, and the heat transfer rate was recovered to 90.5% when the scaled pipe was operated for 1 month. The heat transfer rate recovered to 97.86% when driving for two months and to 98.72% for three months. It was confirmed that the scaling effect of the scale formed in the piping was understood in a relatively short experiment period, and the heat transfer performance was also influenced.

In this paper, an improved integrated security control procedure is newly proposed by applying artificial intelligence technology to integrated security control and unifying the existing security control and AI security control response procedures. Current cyber security control is highly dependent on the level of human ability. In other words, it is practically unreasonable to analyze various logs generated by people from different types of equipment and analyze and process all of the security events that are rapidly increasing. And, the signature-based security equipment that detects by matching a string and a pattern has insufficient functions to accurately detect advanced and advanced cyberattacks such as APT (Advanced Persistent Threat). As one way to solve these pending problems, the artificial intelligence technology of supervised and unsupervised learning is applied to the detection and analysis of cyber attacks, and through this, the analysis of logs and events that occur innumerable times is automated and intelligent through this. The level of response has been raised in the overall aspect by making it possible to predict and block the continuous occurrence of cyberattacks. And after applying AI security control technology, an improved integrated security control service model was newly proposed by integrating and solving the problem of overlapping detection of AI and SIEM into a unified breach response process(procedure).

This study aimed to improve the production of bioactive materials with antioxidant activity using a fermented Luffa aegyripia extract and improve the anticancer effect by enhancing UV absorption and inhibiting melanoma cell growth. The total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity of the fermented extract were 30.23 mg GAE/g DM and 45.12%, respectively, which was 1.4 times higher than that of the hot-water extract (HWE). The fermented extract showed a UV adsorption rate of 53.9%, which was 1.5 times higher than HWE, and it was concluded that UV absorption was increased by TPC, which was increased through the fermentation of L. aegyptiaca extracts using Lactobacillus. In the anticancer effect test, fermented and HWE extracts had carcinogenic effects of 1.0 and 2.0 mg/mL, respectively. This suggests that the increased antioxidant activity due to the increase in TPC caused by fermentation contributed to the anticancer effect. The UV absorption rate of fermented extracts was 2.4 times higher than HWE, giving them potential use as cosmetics and pharmaceutical materials with high polyphenol contents and antioxidant properties and skin cancer prevention.
