Recently, due to the high rise of energy costs and environmental problem issues, much attention has been paid to wood pellets. Wood pellets are produced by compressing woody biomass into cylindrical form. Wood pellets are suitable for use at various scales in industrial furnaces for heat production to replace conventional fossil fuel energy sources since the use of wood pellet that is carbon neutral can alleviate global warming. This study presents the result of developing two industrial wood pellet boilers with high safety having capacities of 290kW and 440kW. Efficiency has been improved by using a rotating screw bar grate burner. Special attention has been paid to the improvement of the safety of the wood pellet boilers from backfire by adopting a triple protecting system composed of a rotary feeder, an air curtain, and a backfire protecting DC-fan.

This study is to investigate the pressure wave characteristics and the maximum pressure rise generated by instantaneous valve closure at the end of the straightening polybutylene double piping system with header. Experiments were conducted under the following conditions: initial pressure $1{\sim}5$ bar, flow velocity $0.5{\sim}3.0$ m/s and water temperature $25^{\circ}C$.

Auxiliary port which had been known to be used to reduce the expansion loss of a refrigeration system was applied to a R134a reciprocating compressor in a household refrigerator cycle with an intention of improving the compressor performance. Effects of the auxiliary port on the compressor performance was investigated by a computer simulation program. When a simple hole was made on the side wall of the cylinder as an auxiliary port and surrounding gas inside the compressor shell was assumed to be drawn into the cylinder through the hole, maximum COP improvement of 1.66% was obtained. With auxiliary port equipped with a plate type of check valve, maximum COP was raised to be 1.99%. COP improvement was more distinctive with decreasing the discharge pressure; COP improvement was 5% with discharge pressure of 7 bar.

The purpose of this experiment is to verify processing crack direction and state by the corrosion of electrifying re-bar in the salt water. The result of this experiment is the fact that the first crack appear on the surface of water-because of supplying of oxygen and water. The crack processing is on a surface to be contacted by air and to bottom as mainly the vertical direction from a surface of water. The crack by corrosion of steel reinforcing is emerged by the inside of concrete rather than surface concrete.

Nanotechnology is an upcoming technology that can provide solution for combating pollution by controlling shape and size of materials at the nanoscale. This review provides comprehensive information regarding the role of nanotechnology in pollution control at concrete structures. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles are a good item for concrete structures for diminishing the air polluting affect by gasses of exhaust. In this article, the mixture rule is presented for the effect of nanoparticles in environmental pollution reduction in concrete structures. The compressive strength, elastic modulus and reduction of steel bars in the concrete structures are studied. The Results show that TiO2 nanoparticles have significant effect on the reduction of environmental pollution and increase of stiffness in the concrete structures. In addition, the nanoparticles can reduce the use of steel bars in the concrete structure.

In this study, the possibility and the optimal conditions for treating slurry type piggery wastewater using supercritical water oxidation were tested in the laboratory. The results could be summarized as follows; The slurry type piggery wastewater, which was diluted 50 times, was treated most effectively at the pressure of 300 bar, the temperature of $550^{\circ}C$ and the residence time of 10 minutes. The air saturated water was injected, as an oxidizing agent, and the removal efficiencies of $COD_{Cr}$, T-N, $NH_4^+$-N and T-Pattheoptimal conditions were 92, 40, 59 and 100%, respectively. Therefore, analte rnativemea suremu stbetaken to improve theremo valefficiency of the nitrogen compounds.

This paper will present the design of a novel-type velocity-controllable electromagnetic coil launcher (EMCL). By studying the influence of initial capacitor voltage on the velocity of an EMCL, the launcher voltage can be set to precisely adjust the velocity of projectile launching. The simulation of voltage and velocity in relation to time is obtained by Maxwell software. The experimental data show that for the launch accuracy to be achievable, the actual precision is 2%. Because of the excellent performance of Velocity-controllable EMCL, it can replace the air gun and applied to split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB).

To make practical application of mixing test results to concrete mix design, experimental tests of concrete were done and the relationship between cement-water ratio and compressive strength of concrete was obtained. A computer program which can be used for data base of air content, slump and compressive strength test results was developed. The program draws $\bar{X}$-R or X-Rs control charts and has data sheets for arrangement of material test results. The computer program also helps calculation of concrete mix proportions for mixing tests and contains dictionary of concrete technical terms.

The object of this project is to manifest the mechanism of deterioration phenomena for dielectrics causing corona discharge and applies it for determine the standard corona detection technique. As the results, we observed that corona discharges may occur more strongly around cylindrical shape electrode in air than hemisphere shape electrode in vacuum, so that it depends on effects such as shape of the electrode, moisture, surface coditions, etc. According to observed the deterioration of dielectrics takes place in following stages. At first the attacked surface by an electron avalanche is uniformly eroded; then pits are formed; after that sharp channels are formed which lead to break-down as a treeing. The test are accelerated with higher frequencies by the cylindrical bar shape electrode in the pulse stright detection method more sensitive than Lissajous patterns. Lissajous patterns detection method is simple but usually insensitive and has disadvantage that the magnitude of the individual discharge is not measured.

This study was carried out to develop low density board made of rice hull which needs proper use. Urea formaldehyde adhesive(UF) was used. The raw materials were the mixtures of the rice hulls from IllFum, DongGin, ChuChong, etc. The physical and mechanical properties of rice hull insulation board were examined. The results are as follows : For the thickness of 15mm of the low density rice hull board bonded with UF resin, proper manufacturing conditions were $171^{\circ}C$ of hot pressing temperature with thickness bar for optimum density, 12 percent of resin solid contents of rice hull ovendry weight, and 20 minutes of hot pressing time. These conditions meet Korean standards(KS 3201-1982) in relation to free formaldehyde emission, bending strength, water absorption and heat resistance.
