The Lagrangian grid-free numerical method, the discrete vortex method, was applied to solve the Navier-Stokes euqations. This method avoids the introduction of numerical viscosity swamping the real physical viscosity at high Reynolds number, unlike Eulerian method, e.g. finite difference and element methods. The boundary integral equation method for the potential flow solution was included to make the discrete vortex method more feasible for complex geometries. The fast adaptive multipole expansion method was incorporated to reduce the computational time from $O(N^2)$ to O(N) for the computations of vortex-vortex interactions. The test problems were air flow around one circular cylinder and two circular cylinders in tandem with various gaps. The numerical results were in excellent gareement with the experimental and other computational results. The applicabilty of the method was discussed with the indoor and the outdoor air pollution problems, especially the contaminant transport in the recirculation regions.

Turbulent nonpremixed $H_2$-air jet flames are numerically investigated using the joint PDF model. The reaction progress variable is derived by assuming the radicals 0, H, and OH to be in partial equilibrium and additional species $HO_2$ and $H_2O_2$ in steady state. The model is extended to npnadiabatic flame by introducing additional variable for the transport of enthalpy and radiative source term is calculated using a local, geometry independent model. In terms of flame structure and NO formation, the predicted results are favorably agreed with experimental data. The effects of nonequilibrium chemistry and radiative heat loss on the thermal NO formation are discussed in detail.

A two-dimensional direct numerical simulations was peformed to investigate the flame structure of $CH_4/N_2$-Air counterflow nonpremixed flame interacting with a single vortex. The detailed transport properties and a modified 16-step augmented reduced mechanism based on Miller and Bowman's detailed reaction mechanism were adopted in this calculation. To quantify the strain on flame induced by a vortex, a scalar dissipation rate (SDR) is introduced. Results show that the fuel- and air-side vortex cause an unsteady extinction. In this case, the flame interacting with a vortex is extinguished in much larger SDR than steady flame. It was also found that air- side vortex extinguishes a flame more rapidly than fuel -side vortex.

The present study deals with a numerical simulation for the transport phenomena in three configurations of Membrane Distillation (Air Gap, Direct Contact and Sweeping Gas Membrane Distillation) usually used for desalination in order to make an objective comparison between them under the same operating conditions. The models are based on the conservation equations for the mass, momentum, energy and species within the feed saline and cooling solutions as well as on the mass and energy balances on the membrane sides. The theoretical model was validated with available data and was found in good agreement. DCMD configuration provided the highest pure water production while SGMD shows the highest thermal efficiency. Process parameters' impact on each configuration are also presented and discussed.

동북아시아지역에서 인천국제공항이 최고의 허브공항으로서 역할을 위해서는 무엇보다도 환승율에 대한 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다. 인천국제공항은 2005년도에 3,054,485만명의 환승여객을 처리하여 환승율은 11.9% 를 기록하였는데 이는 동북아시아의 경쟁허브공항의 환승율인 30-40%와 비교해보면 공항경쟁력이 상당히 뒤쳐진다고 할 수 있다. 이러한 약점을 보완하기 위하여 여러 가지 관련 인자들을 검토하는 것이 중요하다고 판단되어지는데 그중에서 인천국제공항의 비행편최소연결시간(MCT)을 개선하는 것이 필요하다. 이러한 문제를 개선하기 위해서는 항공기 스케줄, 항공사 배치, 게이트 배정방법, 수하물처리, 여객 동선 등이 함께 검토되어야 할 것이다. 그러나 이러한 인자들에 대한 세부적인 분석이 단기간에 걸쳐 해결되는 문제가 아니기 때문에 본 연구에서는 외국 허브공항의 MCT 수준, 관리방법, 국외사례 등을 고찰해 보고 동북아시아에서 허브공항을 향한 인천국제공항의 환승율 제고차원에서 정책적 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

To evaluate the possibly potent role of Asian Dust (AD) on the long range transport of Hg, statistical analyses were carried out using the hourly concentration data of gaseous elemental mercury (Hg) along with relevant environmental parameters. For the purpose of this study, Hg data were collected from Yang-Jae monitoring station in Seoul, Korea during Sept. 1997 to June 2002. During the study period, Hg concentrations in non-AD period ranged from $0.03\;to\;32.70\;ng\;m^{-3}$ with a mean $5.27{\pm}3.06\;ng\;m^{-3}$, while those in AD period from $1.79\;to\;32.60\;ng\;m^{-3}$ with a mean $5.20{\pm}3.06\;ng\;m^{-3}$. The air quality during AD were typically deteriorated by enhanced PM10 mass concentration (by $2{\sim}5$ times) compared to non-AD period, however comparison of the Hg concentration data indicates that they are not critically distinguished between events of AD and non-AD, except for the high minimum level of Hg during AD. The results of correlation and factor analysis also indicated somewhat complex patterns; in the case of AD events, Hg and $SO_{2}$ were assorted concurrently into a same factor. Evidence collected from this study thus suggests that long-range transport of Hg, if occurring, is unlikely to raise statistically Hg concentration levels such as seen during AD event. However, in nighttime of winter season, Hg concentrations are higher during AD (along with PM10 levels) than non-AD period. Although such observations suggest the effect of long range transport on the enhancement of Hg concentrations, more deliberate analysis may be required to track down the effect of such mechanism in relation with various factors including the air mass transport route.

This study analyzed mass concentrations of TSP, PM10 and PM2.5 and elemental constituents according to the isentropic backward trajectories of air parcel from Cheongwonin East Asia during the period January - October, 2011. Mass concentrations of the continental polluted airflow (CP) showed levels of TSP and PM10 mass concentrations higher than the continental background airflow (CB). Also, PM2.5 mass concentrations of anthropogenic fine particles ran higher in CP than in CB. The elemental constituents and elemental constituent ratio ended up varying depending on the origin of atmospheric aerosols generated. The average absolute content of elemental constituents reached its height in CB, the ratio of anthropogenically originating elements (PE) among the all elements (AE) analyzed marked a high in CP, and Mg+Na/AE reached its height in the oceanic airflow (OA). At the same time, TSP, PM10 and PM2.5 mass concentrations, the ratio of PM2.5/TSP and PE/AE element ratio ran higher in CP than CB. Episodes of large-scale transport of atmospheric pollutants as observed at Cheongwon were 8 cases and 22 days. The ratios of PM10, PM2.5 among TSP mass concentrations showed different results and the ratios of PM2.5 showed an increasing trend in the episodes of anthropogenic air pollution transport. Overall, dustfall episodes show a level of elemental constituents higher than those of anthropogenic air pollution.Dustfall episodes were observed to contain more of Fe, Al and Ca originating from continental soils and those of air pollution were observed to contain more of Zn, Mn, Cu and Pb. By difference in contents of absolute elemental constituents, episodes of anthropogenic air pollution showed a high PE/AE rate, and dustfall episodes a high SE/AE rate.

최근 휠체어를 이용하여 비행기에 탑승하려던 승객이 항공사로부터 탑승거부를 당한 사례가 여럿 보도되었다. 우리나라 법에는 장애인을 포함한 고령자, 임산부 등 일상생활에서 이동에 불편을 느끼는 사람을 교통약자로 규정하여 이들의 이동권을 보장하고 있지만, 실제로 다양한 이유로 이들의 이동에 제약이 있는 실정이다. 그러나 국제사회에서는 항공교통이용자의 보호 및 안전을 위한 정책을 도입하고 실행 중에 있다. 이러한 움직임에 맞추어 우리나라도 항공교통이용자들의 피해를 미리 예방하고 보호할 수 있는 제도가 마련되어야 할 것이다. 본 논문은 승객에 대한 권리와 교통약자들의 권리에 관하여 해외의 규정들을 알아보고, 이에 비추어 부족한 우리나라의 제도를 검토하고 이에 따른 해결 방안을 제시하였다. 우선 교통약자라는 정의를 다시 파악함으로써 전체 국민의 25 %에 해당하는 이동에 불편을 느끼는 자를 위한 제도가 아닌 실지로 이동에 제한이 있는 자를 위한 현실적인 정책방안을 강구하였다. 이 과정에서 항공사와 교통약자와의 분쟁이 더욱 더 심각한 것은 항공사마다 제각기 다른 운송약관에 따라 운영의 범위가 다르므로 승객입장에서는 혼란을 야기할 수밖에 없음을 발견하곤 미국 등 국제사회의 법규범들에 비추어 항공교통이용자의 보호라는 목표를 위하여 항공 교통의 특수성과 우리 실정에 맞는 현실적인 규율을 통일적으로 제안을 해보았다. 또한, 현재 우리나라는 승객이 항공이용 중 피해가 발생하면 그 피해구제의 신청을 이용승객이 하도록 하고 있다. 이는 당연한 소비자의 권리로서 피해구제를 요청할 수 있는 것이다. 그러나 이러한 보상이 필요한 피해뿐만 아니라 항공교통이용자가 가지는 피해, 불만의 처리에 관한 모든 것을 집계하여야 하기 위하여 현장에서 발생하는 불만들의 정확한 집계를 위해 이를 그 서비스 제공자인 공항과 항공사에게 위임하도록 하는 방안을 제시 하였다. 이는 항공교통서비스 보고서가 가지는 목적. 서비스의 질을 향상시키고, 승객이 가질 수 있는 어려움을 보다 구체적으로 처리할 수 있는 정책을 만드는 데 큰 도움이 될 것이다. 우리나라의 교통약자 등에 관련된 시설 및 인식은 선진국에 비해 떨어지지 않으나 교통선진국가로서의 승객에 대한 권리향상의 움직임에 발맞추기 위해 보다 구체적이고 실질적인 정책이 필요한 시점이며, 이동권이 제약된 교통약자들의 처우를 개선하기 위하여 실효성 있는 제도를 제안했다.

Physico-chemical measurement of non-refractory submicron particles($NR-PM_1$) was conducted in Baengnyeong Island, Korea using Aerodyne High Resolution Time of Flight Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS) from 2012 to 2014. Organics and ammoniated sulfate were dominant species in $NR-PM_1$. The organics was found to have similar fractions(approximate 40%) of $NR-PM_1$ during the summer and winter, while the sulfate fractions of $NR-PM_1$ were calculated to be approximately 47% and 31% for the summer and winter, respectively, suggesting the possibility that particles provide non-acidic surfaces for condensation of nitric acid in the winter. The nitrate fractions of approximate 4% and 20% of $NR-PM_1$ were observed in August (summer) and November (winter), respectively, resulting that the relatively low concentration of sulfate in $NR-PM_1$ provided a non-acidic surface for nitric acid condensation and formation of particulate ammoniated nitrate is favored thermodynamically in winter. The new particle formation (NPF) event and particle growth rate were analyzed for each month in 2014 using Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer(SMPS). The Percent of NPF events was the highest in winter, but NPF event was not observed during summer due to relatively high temperature and frequent rainfall. The average particle growth rate was 3.5 nm/h and the highest particle growth rate was 5.5 nm/h in May. We observed the long-range transport of the anthropogenic sulfate from the East Asia during the intensive monitoring period of November between Qingdao and Baengnyeong Island in 2013. The relatively high concentrations of m/z 60 measured in HR-ToF-AMS was observed in May and June at Baengnyeong Island, suggesting the possibility of the influence of biomass burning from the East Asia to the Korean Peninsula.
