A one-dimensional thermal-hydraulic analysis computer program is developed for thermal sizing of a copper bonded steam generator. It is assumed that the conduction heat transfer of copper region between the hot side and the cold side tube is one-dimensional and its thermal resistance is derived as a function of a tube pitch. The flow regions of the water/steam side are divided into four regions: subcooled, saturated, film boiling, and super-heated. The number of tube selected ranges from 250 to 3500 and the pitch to tube diameter (P/D) ratios are 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 for the parametric study calculation. The calculation results showed that when the number of tube was 2500, the length of the heating tube was about 12 m and the outside diameter of the steam generator was about 3 m. If the P/D ratio increases, the thermal resistance of copper component also increases, however the length of the heating tube is not so much increased.

A physical model experiment was conducted using a sand and gravel-filled tank model, to investigate the influence on the GPR response of LNAPL vapor phase effects in the unsaturated zone and of residual phase of LNAPL trapped in the saturated zone. Background measurements of GPR were made with only water in the tank using a fluctuating water table model. Gasoline was, then, injected into the bottom of the model tank to simulate a subsurface discharge from a leaking pipe or tank at depth, obtaining GPR data with rising and lowering of water table. Results from the experiment show the GPR sensitivity to the changes in the moisture content in the vadose zone and its effectiveness for monitoring minor fluctuation of the water table. The results also demonstrate a potential of GPR for monitoring possible vapor phase effects of volatile hydrocarbons in the vadose zone as a function of time, and for detecting the effects of residual phase of hydrocarbons in the water saturated system. In addition, the results provide the basis for a strategy that has the potential to successfully detect and delineate residual LNAPL contamination in the water-saturated system at field sites where the conditions are similar to those simulated in the physcial models described herein.

In this study, preconceptions held by chemistry major secondary school science teachers were searched in relation to explanations of water evaporation phenomena with phase equilibrium diagrams. 25 chemistry major science teachers were selected to complete questionnaires developed in this study and 6 among of them were selected to participate in follow-up interviews. Among these, 10 participants were selected for an evaluation of the change of their preconceptions through lessons developed in this study. From the results, it was found that many teachers believed that the phase equilibrium diagram could not explain water evaporation phenomena. They also thought that there was no relation between vapor pressure and the vertical axis of the phase equilibrium diagram. However, after the lessons in earth science, they recognized that the vapor pressure curve of the phase equilibrium diagram could be explained by adopting a saturated vapor curve. Because they had known the process of application the conceptions of saturated situation, nonsaturated situation, process of equilibrium movement in saturated vapor curve. They could understand natural phenomena such as evaporation with the phase equilibrium diagram through a change in their conceptions as guided from science lessons integrating earth science and chemistry.

A flow analysis for the erosion-corrosion damaged automotive water pump which causes vehicle fire is numerically performed using the CFX program, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The blade bending deformation and the blade clearance enlargement are considered in the analysis of performance reduction. For the cavitation analysis, the homogeneous multi phase model is adopted using the Ralyleigh-Plesset model for the rate equation controlling vapor generation and condensation.

We observed a velocity-selective saturated absorption spectrum when the pump beam intersects the probe beam at a finite angle with a saturated absorption spectroscopic configuration in the cesium vapor cell. And we also observed a dispersion-like signal by measuring the difference between two velocity-selective absorption spectra produced by two parallel probe beams intersected by one pump beam. The dispersion-like signal was changed with the crossing angle and the crossing position of the pump and probe beams and compared with the calculated result. The dispersion-like signal was used as a frequency discriminator, and the laser could be frequency-stabilized without any frequency modulation. As a result, the square root of Allan variance was $\sigma_y(\tau=1s)=7$\times10^{-12}$, for the sampling time of 1 s.of 1 s.

This paper is described the indirect induction heated boiler system and induction heated hot air producer using the voltage-fed series resonant high-frequency inverter which can operate in the frequency range from 20〔KHz〕 to 50〔KHz〕. A specially designed Induction heater, which is composed of laminated stainless assembly with many tiny holes and interconnected spot welding points between stainless plates, is inserted into the ceramic type vessel with external working coil. This working coil is connected to the resonant inverter. In the induction heater, it's primary heating section creates low-pressure saturated steam and secondary heating section generates heat distribution evaporating fluid from the turbulence fluid which is flowing through the vessel. The operating performances of this unique appliance in next generation and its effectiveness are evaluated and discussed from the practical point of view.

최근의 수많은 산업 현장에서 취급하고 있는 각종 화학물질은 잠재적 위험성이 크므로 보관, 수송 및 취급할 때 특별한 주의가 필요하다. 공정 설계 시 정확하지 않은 폭발한계를 사용함으로서 사고가 유발되는 경우가 많다. 따라서 사업장에서 사용되고 있는 화학물질의 화재 및 폭발 특성치인 인화점, 폭발한계 등을 정확히 파악하는 것은 중요하다. 인화점은 하부인화점과 상부인화점으로 나누고 있고 있으며, 인화점은 가연성 액체의 화재 위험성을 나타내는 지표로써, 가연성액체의 액면 가까이서 인화할 때 필요한 증기를 발산하는 액체의 최저온도 또는 점화원 존재시 인화가 일어날 수 있는 최저온도, 그리고 가연성증기의 포화증기압이 공기와 혼합기체의 폭발한계 하한농도와 같게 되는 온도로 정의한다. 폭발한계는 발화원이 존재할 때 가연성가스와 공기가 혼합하여 일정 농도범위 내에서만 연소가 이루어지는 혼합범위를 말한다. 본 연구에서는 실제 공정에서 사용되고 있는 n-Hexadecane의 인화점을 측정하여 이를 기존 문헌값과 비교 하였고, 측정된 인화점을 이용하여 폭발한계를 예측하였다. 예측된 폭발한계를 여러 문헌에 제시된 자료과 비교하여 공정안전에 타당한 자료를 제시하였다. 본 연구는 n-Hexadecane을 취급하는 공정에서 안전 확보의 중요한 지침 마련과 MSDS D/B의 최신화에 유용한 정보를 제공하는데 목적이 있다.

This article is related to the possibility for continuous operation of a liquid rocket engine when a portion of cryogenic propellant in the pipeline is vaporized. As a result of experimental studies imitating the formation of vapors in the flow, we confirmed the possibility of full gas-phase condensation in case temperature of cryogenic liquid is lower than it's saturation temperature in the pipeline. Empirical equation allowing to calculate a nonequilibrium condensation region in the steady flow of cryogenic liquid was obtained as a non-dimensional form and the fields of practical application were suggested.

Surfactant-enhanced air sparging (SEAS) was developed to suppress the surface tension of groundwater prior to air sparging resulting in higher air saturation and larger contact area between NAPL and gas during air sparging. Larger contacting interface between NAPL and gas means faster mass transfer of contaminants from NAPL to gas phase. This new technique, however, is limited to relatively volatile contaminants because vaporization is its basic mechanism of mass transfer. In this study, SEAS was tested at an elevated temperature for a semi-volatile n-decane, which is expected not to be a good candidate of SEAS application due to its low vapor pressure at ambient temperature. Three sparging experiments were conducted using 1-dimensional column (5 cm id, 80 cm length) packed with sand; (1) ambient temperature ($23^{\circ}C$), column saturated with distilled water, (2) SEAS at ambient temperature ($23^{\circ}C$), for n-decane contaminated sand, (3) SEAS at elevated temperature ($73^{\circ}C$), for n-decane contaminated sand. Higher air saturation was achieved by SEAS compared to that by air sparging without surfactant application. The n-decane removal efficiency of SEAS at elevated temperature was significantly higher(> 10 times) than that of ambient SEAS. The n-decane concentrations in the gas effluent from column during SEAS at $73^{\circ}C$ are found to be 10 times of those measured at ambient temperature. Thus, SEAS technique can be applied for removal of semi-volatile contaminants provided that an appropriate technique for elevating aquifer temperature is available.
