Owing to the Increasing use of fossil fuels, worldwide concerns over environmental pollution are increasing. As a solution, ligneous biomass has emerged as a promising alternative fuel in recent times. Therefore, in this study, a moisture evaporation model that largely influences the energy density and efficiency of ligneous biomass is studied using a numerical approach. Furthermore, the thermal characteristics are analyzed in terms of torrefaction temperature and moisture fractions in the wood, and the type of wood species. The results show that the temperature and moisture fractions of wood decrease with an increase in the torrefaction temperature. In particular, when the torrefaction temperature is lower than 423K, there were little changes in the moisture fraction in the wood. Furthermore, it was found that charcoal is produced more slowly as the moisture fraction in the wood increases.

This study investigated their properties of spalling resistance and residual compressive strength after fire test corresponding to various ISO, RABT heating curves, and contents of hybrid organic fiber of high strength concrete. The results were summarized as following. As fundamental characters of concrete with hybrid organic fiber, the flowability was directly declined as the increase of fiber contents, and air contents were decreased or increased a little bit, but there was not big difference. The compressive strength was gradually declined sluggishly at 28 days. As properties of fire resistance, in case of RABT heating curves, compare with ISO heating curves a spalling aspect showed till range that has much contents of hybrid organic fiber, but they are mostly peeling spalling, which means spalling aspect didn't happen to inside. In conclusion, in case of W/B 25% high strength concrete, the spalling was prevented over 0.04% of contents of fiber at ISO heating curve and over 0.10% of contents of fiber at the RABT heating curve. In case of spalling was prevented, mass reduction rate according to the change of heating temperature curves showed around 7% at ISO heating curves and around 9% at RABT heating curves. The residual compressive strength rate corresponding to the change of heating temperature curves showed 50%~60% at ISO heating temperature curves and 30%~35% at RABT heating temperature curves in case of spalling was prevented.

완화형 강유전체의 가장 대표적인 PMN계에서 첨가제의 종류와 함량, 측정온도, 인가 전계의형태 등의 변화에 따른 전계인가 변화특성을 광법위하게 조사하였다. Columbite precursor법에의해 분말을 준비하고 고상소결방법에 의하여 모든 시편을 제조하였다. 순수한 PMN에 첨가제로서 PbTiO3와 Pb(Zr, Ti)O3를 첨가한 경우에 완전한 perovskite 구조의 고용체가 형성되었음을 알 수 있었다. T$\varepsilon$max이상에서는 변위의 이력이 크게 발생하는 강유전체의 거동을 보여주었다. 양방향으로 전계를 인가하여 변위를 이용하면 발생 strain은 실온 근방에서 온도에 대하여 안정적이지만 단방향 전계에 따른 변위는 온도에 따라 크기가 변한다는 것을 알 수 있었고 유전상수가 큰 경우가 전왜의 크기 또한 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 0.9MN-0.1PT와 0.8PMN-0.2PZT의 경우 최대가 되는 온도는 유전율이 최대가 되는 온도보다 더 낮은 온도에서 나타났다.

ZnWO$_4$shows excellent frequency selectivity due to its high quality factor(Q${\times}$f) at microwave frequencies. However, in order to use ZnWO$_4$as multilayered wireless communication components, its other properties such as sintering temperature(105$0^{\circ}C$). $$\tau$_f$(-70ppm/$^{\circ}C$) and $$\varepsilon$_r$(15.5) should be modified. In present study, TiO$_2$and LiF were used to improve the microwave dielectric and sintering properties of ZnWO$_4$. TiO$_2$ additions to ZnWO$_4$changed $\tau$$_{f}$ from negative to positive value, and also increased $$\varepsilon$_r$, due to its high $$\tau$_f$(＋400ppm$^{\circ}C$) and $$\varepsilon$_r$(100). At 20 mol% TiO$_2$ addition, $$\tau$_f$was controlled to near zero ppm/$^{\circ}C$ with $$\varepsilon$_r$=19.4 and Q${\times}$ f=50000GHz. However, the sintering temperature was 110$0^{\circ}C$. LiF addition to the ZnWO$_4$＋TiO$_2$ mixture greatly reduced the sintering temperature from 110$0^{\circ}C$ to 85$0^{\circ}C$ due to liquid phase formation. Also LiF addition decreased the $$\tau$_f$value due to its high negative $$\tau$_f$ value. Therefore, by controlling the TiO$_2$and LiF amount. temperature stable LTCC(Low Temperature Cofired Ceramics) material with low loss in the ZnWO$_4$-TiO$_2$-LiF system could be fabricated.d.d.

In the fermentation of Yulmoo Mulkimchi, various ratios of Yulmoo to water (l/l.14, l/l.5, 1/2, l/2.75, 1/4) were prepared and fermented at 4$^{\circ}C$, 15$^{\circ}C$, 25$^{\circ}C$ for up to 10 days. According to the fermentation time, the pH, acidity, total vitamin C content and microbial growth in Mulkimchi samples were determined together with sensory evaluation. Fermentation temperature on water addition ratio didn't show any difference in pH and microbial growth of Mulkimchi. However, low ratio of water resulted in high acidity and vitamin C content in Mulkimchi. In terms of acid odor and acid taste, the least water addition (l/l.4) sample was significantly strong than those of other samples. The ratio of Yulmoo to water, l/2 showed the highest overall sensorial acceptability and followed by l/l.5, l/l.4, l/2.75 and 1/4 samples. It was found that the content of vitamin C and acid taste of Mulkimchi have correlation with its acceptability.

The quality of oak mushoom(Lentinus edodes(Berk) Sing) is sensitively affected by environmental factors, especially moisture by the rain during the growing period. To protect mushrooms from being wet, plastic-covered facilities with side openings are mostly being used. However, the indoor temperature and humidity f the facility without roof opening become higher due to its poor ventilation, and consequently reduce the productivity and quality as well. In this study, we analyzed the ventilation rates and indoor temperatures of improved facilities as affected by the area of roof opening and shading rate by the model. The indoor temperature decreased by more than 2.5$^{\circ}C$ as the shading rate increased from 50% to 90%, and especially the effect of wind speed on indoor temperature was significantly great under as low as 50% of shading rate. The ventilation rate became higher under wind speed of 1~2m.s-1 regardless of the shading rate. As the wind speed increased from 0m.s-1 to 2m.s-1, the indoor temperature decreased by more than 2.$0^{\circ}C$. Moreover, the indoor temperature became lower with increasing roof opening ratio, but showed no significant differences at more than 50% of roof opening ratio. At lower shading rate, the indoor temperature sensitively decreased with increasing area of roof opening. Additionally, we obtained the higher ventilation performance with the area of roof opening more or less equal to side opening, regardless of the wind speed and shading rate.

Quality attributes of welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L.) as affected by harvest timing (November, December 2006 and January 2007) and storage temperature (5, 10 and $20^{\circ}C$) were investigated in terms of respiration rate, weight loss, decay rate, color, hardness, sensory quality. A higher respiration rate was found when welsh onions were harvested later and storage temperature was higher. A smaller weight loss was observed in welsh onions that were harvested in November and stored at temperature of $5^{\circ}C$, demonstrating a 9.35% reduction. In other words, there were a minimum difference of 2.15% and a maximum difference of 9.92% between the weight loss in test samples harvested in November and those of test samples harvested in other months. The decay rate was higher in welsh onions harvested in January. The degree of color was more stable in test samples kept at temperature of $5^{\circ}C$ than those kept at higher temperature (10 and $20^{\circ}C$). There were, however, no significant differences in color changes among test samples harvested at different times of the year. Thus color change is closely associated with temperature. Also, welsh onions were harvested in November and stored at temperature of $5^{\circ}C$ showed a good sensory quality.

To study the possibility of agricultural utilization of seafood processing wastewater sludges, the change of temperature, decreasing ratio of weight generation quantity of $CO_2$ and $NH_3$, and contents of inorganic elements for composting by adding different rates of zeolite and livestock manure to seafood processing wastewater sludges were investigated. Changes of temperature, decreasing ratio of total weight and generation quantity of $CO_2$ were not little different with increasing addition rates of zeolite for composting. But the less addition quantity of livestock manure is, the higher were temperature and decreasing ratio weight for composting. Ceneration quantity of $NH_3$ in composting materials as adding zeolite ti 5, 10 and 20% and livestock manure to 50, 65 and 80% were 68, 61 and $46mg/kgvs{\cdot}hr$, respectively, for composting periods. So, $NH_3$ generated little quantity as much as possible addition of zeolite and manure. Contents of T-C and T-N little decreased and C/N ratio little increased after composting than before. Content of $P_2O_5$, $K_2O$, CaO also increased a little, that of MgO is not different and that of Mn decreased very sharply in all conditions after composting than before.
