In this paper, the relationships between volumetric mixing ratio of rubber chip and physical and mechanical properties of wood/rubber composite panel was examined in order to investigate the mixture characteristics of wood and rubber chip. Because of the specific gravity of rubber differed from wood chip, physical properties of wood/rubber composite panel was shown very different values by mixing rate of chip element. Specific gravity in air-dry of composite panel was increased rapidly as volumetric percent of rubber chip was increased. Moisture content of composite panel was decreased as volumetric percent of rubber chip element was increased. This results was considered that wood weight is light and porosity material for moisture absorption. Compressive strength and modulus of rupture in bending test were decreased as volumetric percent of rubber chip increased. By mixing ratio control of chip elements, various wood/rubber composite panel can be applicable to every interior materials such as subfloor, playground, and exterior materials such as road blocks for recreational facilities in garden and forest and city parks.

The water retention of coating colors can be accurately measured by devices such as an AA-GWR water retention meter whose principle of measurement is based on pressure filtration of coatings under an externally applied air pressure over a certain period of time. It was hypothesized that such devices could be also used to determine the immobilization solids(IMS) of coating colors by determining a sudden drop in the rate of dewatering, that is, a sudden change in the drainage curves. To test this hypothesis, the immobilization solids of coating colors containing various thickeners and water retention additives at different levels were first accurately measured by a modified immobilization tester based on the well-known gloss drop method, and then their values were compared with those obtained by an AA-GWR water retention tester. They agreed very well and showed that the mean of the solids differences is 0.36% in the IMS points between both methods. This good agreement was not surprising because both test methods are based on the same end-point, that is, the immobilization solids point at which menisci begin to form at the coating surface. Theoretical considerations supporting this new method for measuring the immobilization solids of coating colors are presented and some recommendations for the test method are discussed. Also, the effect of various thickeners and water retention additives on the properties and printability of coated papers is discussed.

Relatively high carbon-14 emissions, which occurred at PHWR Plant during 1998 and 1999, made the site staff to implement several operational improvements: 1) the frequency and volume of the moderator cover gas purging were reduced through increased $O_2$ additions to the cover gas, 2) the 'old' resin columns were not used during re-start of the reactor from outage, 3) efforts were made to minimize air ingress, 4) the maximum service time of moderator ion-exchange columns were restricted to about 80 days. Through the improvements, the carbon-14 emission from each PHWR reactor returned to the normal levels during the remainder of 1999 and during 2000. We carried out a special surveillance at W-1 and W-3 from September 2001 to August 2002 to properly evaluate ways to optimize the use of moderator ion exchange resins from a C-14 perspective. The surveillance showed that only data that provided an operational marker for deciding when to remove the IX-resin column is an observed increase in the C-14 stack emissions themselves. Also, it is shown that any increase over the rate of 0.4 Ci $month^{-1}$ for two consecutive weeks may be the indication for an ion-exchange resin column change, especially if the IX-resin column has been in service for more than 80 days.

In the present study, a numerical simulation for the diffusion of hydrogen jet in a enclosure was performed to aid the leakage test of the hydrogen for the safety of the hydrogen vehicle. The temporal and spatial distributions of the hydrogen concentration in the test chamber are predicted from the present numerical analyses. Flammable region of 4-74% and explosive region of 18-59% hydrogen by volume was identified from the present results. Factors influencing the diffusion of the hydrogen jet were examined to evaluate the effectiveness of forced ventilation for relieving the accumulation of the leaked hydrogen gas in the chamber, which include location of open windows, size of leakage nozzle, and leakage rate among others. The distribution of the concentration of the leaked hydrogen for various cases can be used as a database in various applications for the hydrogen safety.

The optimization of back pressure chamber is one of the most important factors in designing scroll compressors, because it has a great influence on the efficiencies and other design parameters. The design process can be divided into 2 parts. One is obtaining the optimum pressure of the chamber and keeping it in constant value. And the other is finding out the minimum inflow rate of medium with which back pressure chamber is filled. In this study we are focused on the first step. At first we added a simple structure that could change back pressure without reassembling compressor. It makes the optimum back pressure be obtained. And then we devised an equipment that the back pressure control valve assembly could be independently tested with. A spring was redesigned to decrease stiffness variation. And sealing mechanism of back pressure control valve was improved to more effective way. As a result it was verified in a real mode test that back pressure variation could be stabilized within 2.3% when discharge pressure and operating frequency varied. And the integrated structure of back pressure control valve is expected to contribute to an effective manufacturing process.

Isoprinosine, an antiviral agent with a bitter taste, has been clinically used up to a maximum of 4 g daily in 4-8 doses. In this investigation, isoprinosine was microencapsulated with ethylcellulose 22 cps, 50 cps and 100 cps by means of polymer deposition from cyclohexane through temperature change. Complete removal of cyclohexane from the microcapsules was necessary, since ethylcellulose-coated microcapsules obtained from cyclohexane medium were heavily solvated with cyclohexane and formed lumps even after drying. The displacement of cyclohexane by n-hexane during isolation of microcapsules (Method III) or the freezing of the anal-washed microcapsules before drying (Mothod II) provided the dried products which were more discrete microcapsules than those which were simply dried in the air overnight (Method I). Method III was especially the most effective procedure in preparing finer and more discrete microcapsules. The drug-release from microcapsules was influenced by the ratio of core to wall, the viscosity grade of ethylcellulose and the overall microcapsule size. The release rate was adequately fitted to both the first-order and the diffusion-controlled processes. It is therefore possible to design the release-controlled microcapsules with ethylcellulose of different viscosity along with various core to wall ratio.

The objective of this study is to analyze the effect of velocity and vorticity on stratified mixture formation in the visualization engine. In order to investigate spray behavior, the pray velocity is obtained through the cross-correlation PIV method, a useful optical diagnostics technology and the vorticity calculated from the spray velocity component. These results elucidated the relationship between vorticity and entropy, which play an important role in the diffusion process for the early injection case and the stratification process for the late injection case. In addition, we quantified the homogeneous diffusion ate of spray using entropy analysis based on Boltzmann's statistical thermodynamics. Using these methods, we discovered that the homogeneous mixture distribution is more effective as a momentum dissipation of surrounding air than that of the spray concentration with a change in the injection timing. We found that the homogenous diffusion rate increased as the injection timing moved to the early intake stroke process, and BTDC $60^{\circ}$ was the most efficient injection timing for the stratified mixture formation during the compression stroke.

In this paper, a test apparatus for reliability evaluation of a rotary compressor has been suggested with a short-cycle concept. $CO_2$ refrigerant is adopted for this cycle to avoid phase change during cycle operation. Evaporator is not necessary in short-cycle. Utilizing a short-cycle, the test apparatus was built on the purpose of evaluating the reliability of each rotary compressor on the conveyer belt of the factory. The primary validation of the test apparatus is discussed by analyzing the experimental heat balance data. Additional validation was performed through the overload continuous operation test where the wear rate of the $CO_2$ short-cycle was found to similar to that of the R22 normal-cycle. The reliability evaluation test apparatus with a short-cycle in present investigation was found simple and efficient in the view of reducing sample numbers, costs, and test time in analyzing the reliability of rotary compressors.
