Binary nanoemulsions which are defined as the, oil-droplet suspensions in binary solution ($H_2O$/LiBr), are developed to enhance the heat and mass transfer performance of absorption refrigeration systems. In this study, a novel two-step method is proposed to prepare the stable oil-in-binary solution (O/S) emulsion. Polymer is used as a steric stabilizer to stabilize the oil-droplets in a strong electrolyte ($H_2O$/LiBr). It is found that the thermal conductivity of the binary nanoemulsion is inversely proportional to the emulsion size while the concentrations of oil and $H_2O$/LiBr are less dominant for the thermal conductivity of binary nanoemulsions.

이성분 산화물인 ZnO/$TiO_2$ core-shell 나노입자는 core-shell 구조의 특성과 이성분 산화물의 상호작용에 의해서 염료감응형 태양전지의 효율향상을 기대할 수 있다. Znic acetate($Zn_2(CH_3COO)$)와 Titanium(IV) butoxide($Ti(OBu)_4$)를 이용하여 ZnO 나노입자를 수열합성하고 그 주의에 $TiO_2$을 가수분해 반응을 이용하여 둘러싸는 core-shell형태의 물질을 합성하였다. 그 이후 결정성 및 유기물 제거를 위해서 4시간 동안 고온에서 소성하였다. SEM 결과에 따르면 소성 온도를 600도까지 증가시키면 ZnO의 경우 나노입자의 크기가 증가하는 경향을 확인하였다. 하지만 core-shell의 경우는 ZnO의 뭉침현상을 $TiO_2$이 방해하여 초기합성된 크기와 동일한 크기를 유지하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 XRD 결과에 따르면 주변에 형성된 $TiO_2$ 이외에 $Zn_2TiO_4$의 spinel 구조를 가지는 물질이 합성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 합성된 core-shell 구조의 나노입자는 약 40~50 nm의 크기를 가지고 600도에서 소성된 입자의 경우 산소 정공이 거의 없는 약 3 eV의 밴드갭을 가지는 물질로 합성이 되었다. Core-shell 나노입자의 경우 염료 감응형 태양전지의 반도체 물질로 응용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of the present study is to study the Soret effect of both nanoparticles and solute on the convective instabilities in binary nanofluids. A new stability criterion is obtained based on the linear stability theory. The results show that the Soret effect of solute(${\psi}_{bf}$) makes the binary nanofluids unstable significantly and the convective motion in a binary nanofluid sets in easily as the ratio of Soret coefficient of nanofluid to that of binary basefluid ${\delta}_4$ increases for ${\delta}_4$ > -1. It is also found that as an increase of the volume fraction of nanoparticles, nanofluid becomes stable but at a separation ratio of ${\psi}=-0.3$ the state of fluid changes from stable to unstable.

The Transient State Theory of Significant Liquid Structure is applied to a binary liquid solution of benzene and carbon tetrachloride, which gives slightly positive deviation from Raoults law. The partition function for the solution is derived according to the proposed theory. The various thermodynamic properties such as total and partial vapor pressures, molar volumes, entropies of mixing, and compressibilities are calculated at three different temperatures, 298.15^{\circ}K$, 313.15^{\circ}K$ and 343.1515^{\circ}K$. The calculated values agree satisfactorily with experimental data.

The significant liquid structure theory is extended to binary mixture, benzene-ethylenechloride system. The partition function, applicable throughout the temperature range in which Raoult's law is satisfied is derived. The thermodynamic quantities such as total and partial pressures, molar volumes and mixing entropies are calculated from the partition function at the temperatures $293.15^{\circ},\;323.14^{\circ}\;and\;357.15^{\circ}K.$ The theoretical values, thus calculated, are found to agree with the experimental data in the literatures.

The objectives of this paper are to examine the effect of nano-particles on the pool type absorption heat transfer enhancement and to find the optimal conditions to design a highly effective compact absorber for ammonia/water absorption system. The effect of $Al_2O_3$ nano-particles and carbon nanotube(CNT) on the absorption performance is studied experimentally. The experimental ranges of the key parameters are 20% of ammonia concentration, $0{\sim}0.08\;vol%$ (volume fraction) of CNT particles, and $0{\sim}0.06 \;vol%$ of $Al_2O_3$ nano-particles. For the ammonia/water nanofluids, the heat transfer rate and absorption rate with 0.02 vol% $Al_2O_3$ nano-particles were found to be 29% and 18% higher than those without nano-particles, respectively. It is recommended that the concentration of 0.02 vol% of $Al_2O_3$ nano-particles be the best candidate for ammonia/water absorption performance enhancement.

Binary nanofluids(Binary mixture + nanoparticles) have been extensively paid attention for application in absorption system as a new working fluid. Thermal property evaluation of the new refrigerants is inevitable to apply them for actual system. The objectives of this paper are to measure the thermal conductivity of the binary nanofluids by the transient hot-wire method, and to assess the application possibility of the binary nanofluids for absorption system. It was found that the thermal conductivity of the binary nanofluids ($H_2O/LiBrAl_2O_3$) increased with increasing the concentration of the nanoparticles ($Al_2O_3$) and enhanced up to 27% at 0.1 vol % of the nanoparticles.

In this paper, systemaic approach is studied about assembility and disassemblility of parts of the gear system in order to reduce the assembly cost, and to disassemble products easily which is possible to recycle the parts. That is, an estimation of disassembly and assembly with considering of reliability life. In this study, we use symbolic chart method for an economic model for optimal disassembly and assembly.

For the design of the prevention and mitigation measures in process industries involving flammable substances, reliable safety data are required. An important property used to estimate the risk of fire and explosion for a flammable liquid is the flash point. Flammability is an important factor to consider when developing safe methods for storing and handling solids and liquids. In this study, the flash point data were measured for the binary systems {2-butanol + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane}, {2-butanol + methylcyclohexane} and {2-butanol + toluene} at 101.3 kPa. Experiments were performed according to the standard test method (ASTM D 3278) using a Stanhope-Seta closed cup flash point tester. A minimum flash point behavior was observed in the binary systems as in the many cases for the hydrocarbon and alcohol mixture that were observed. The measured flash points were compared with the predicted values calculated via the following activity coefficient (GE) models: Wilson, Non-Random Two-Liquid (NRTL), and UNIversal QUAsiChemical (UNIQUAC) models. The predicted data were only adequate for the data determined by the closed-cup test method and may not be appropriate for the data obtained from the open-cup test method because of its deviation from the vapor liquid equilibrium. The predicted results of this work can be used to design safe petrochemical processes, such as the identification of safe storage conditions for non-ideal solutions containing flammable components.
