In this study, we employed a small-scale experiment to demonstrate the introduction of a thin copper heat dissipation plate into a bentonite buffer layer of an engineered barrier system. This experiment designed for spent nuclear fuel disposal can effectively reduce the maximum temperature of the bentonite buffer layer, and ultimately, make it possible to reduce the area of the disposal site. For the experiment, a small-scale engineered barrier system with a copper heat dissipation plate was designed and manufactured. the thickness of the cylindrical buffer was about 2 cm, which was about 1/20 of KAERI Repository System (KRS). At a power supply of 250 W, the maximum buffer temperature reduced to a mere 1.8℃ when the thin copper plate was introduced. However, the maximum surface temperature reduced to a remarkable 9.1℃, when a U-collar copper plate was introduced, which had a good contact with the other barrier layers. Consequently, we conclude that the introduction of the thin copper plate into the engineered barrier system for spent nuclear fuel disposal can effectively reduce the maximum buffer temperature in high-level radioactive waste disposal repositories.

This paper presents a new concept to reduce turbulent frictional drag by injecting micro-bubble into buffer layer of turbulent boundary layer on flat plate. The buffer layer of boundary was specified by minus velocity gradient of law of the wall. When the buffer layer region of turbulent boundary layer is filled with micro-bubble of air and viscous of the region is kept low, the velocity profile in the region should be changed substantially. Then the Reynolds stress in the buffer layer region becomes less, which guide to higher velocity gradient there. It results in reduction of velocity gradient at the viscous sublayer, which gives the reduction of shear stress at the wall.

Positive type presensitized offset plate developer were blended by quantitative analysis method. The test had been proceeeded to check variation of developability, shelf life and tone reproduction by SiO2/Na2O ratio to PS plate developer, added glycerin, and sodium phosphate with glycerin. This study of tone reproduction had been tested 5 times to get accuracy by PS platesusing kodak CCG C-3, KMS. The test result of tone reproduction of presensitized offset plates can be summarized as follows ; major compositions in positive type plate developer were Na, Si, K and P, developability were increased by Sio2/NaO2 ratio in positive type plate developer. Shelf life can be kept by add glycerin to positive type plate developer. Tone reproduction were improved by sodium phosphate due to buffer action while shelf life can be kept by add glycerin in positive type plate developer.

Experimental results of pulsating pressure behavior inside a chamber have been confirmed by computational work. Inside-cylinder pressure shows unstable condition at low rpm. This is caused by plate-type suction valve. It has effect up to inlet of the chamber. But trembling phenomenon is reduced as the pressure is enlarged by increasing the rpm. Result comparison between experimental and numerical analysis shows pulsation reduction is affected by the chamber. We can confirm that compressible effect of the working flow is shown at chamber inlet by increasing rpm. On the other side, this effect is declined at chamber outlet by increasing rpm. It means outlet pressure is going on balance with atmosphere pressure. Buffer plate-type chamber has efficiency of pulsation flow reduction.

The polymeric FAB materials of air shower used in clean room of wafer industry have been outgassed with the dynamic headspace (ca.$100^{\circ}C$) for half an hour, and analyzed using GC-MS. The air in the clean room running air shower was sampled using sorbent tube method, and the organic compounds adsorbed in the sorbent tube were extracted using Soxhlet extraction method, and analyzed using GC-MS. The analytical results from FAB materials of air shower (electric over current relay, acryl plate. polycarbonate window, filter, fan housing, steel galvanized cold plate and canvas buffer) indicated that most of chemicals were originated from polymer fragments of FAB materials. Their analytical results have been compared with those from the air of clean room running air shower. These comparative results could lead to identify whether the sources of trace organic contaminants in clean room air are originated from the polymeric FAB material of air shower.

Pulsation is an inherent phenomenon in reciprocating compressors. It interacts with piping to cause vibrations and performance problems. Indiscriminately connecting to a compressor can be dangerous and cost money in the form of broken equipment and piping, poor performance, inaccurate metering, unwanted vibration, and sometimes noise. Piping connected to a compressor can materially affect the performance and response. To minimize these detrimental effects, reciprocating compressor system should be equipped by pulsation suppression system. The system usually comprises bottle volume, called snubber. Snubber is one of the most important parts in hydrogen compressing system. It has installed reciprocating hydrogen compressor. One of these components is snubber which has function to reduce pulsation waveform and to remove the impurities in the hydrogen gas. A snubber has an inclined plate as a buffer, which is installed inside snubber. When the pressure loss and the pulsation of pressure within a snubber is minimized, the snubber could get more applicability. Therefore, a study to find an optimum geometric size on a several snubbers which have different buffer width, has been conducted using a numerical analysis.

The advantages of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) are its senstivity and simplicity in detecting IgG, IgM and IgA antibody. To apply ELISA to diagnosis of typhoid fever, antigen such as lipopolysaccharide of Salmonella typhi or killed whole cell must be coated on solid phase. It is easy to coat lipopolysaccharide on ELISA plate but troublesome to purify it. As it is easy to obtain the killed whole cells, the development of the appropriate method by which those antigens of S. typhi are optimally coated on solid phase is needed. To establish the appropriate method, carbonate buffer, methanol or poly-L-lysine was applied as binding substance on polystyrene or polyvinylchloride plate as solid phase when the killed whole cell antigens of S. typhi varided as follows: $10^6$, $10^7$, $10^8$ and $10^9\;cell/ml$. The criteria of the optimal method were determined as follows: 1. The optical density of positive sera is above 1.0(0.6 in IgM) at 1:10 serum dilution and is 0.3(0.2 in IgM) higher than that of negative sera: 2. The O.D. of sera is flat or lowering according to serum dilution: 3. It must be that the O.D. of negative sera is lower than 0.2 at the point of serum dilution where the O.D. of positive sera is higher than 1.0(0.5 in IgM). The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The methods which fitted the above criteria were to use poly-L-lysine as binding substance, polyvinylchloride plate as solid phase and $10^7\;cell/ml$ as antigen concentration of S. typhi(poly-L-lysine/polyvinylchloride/$10^7$) and poly-L-lysine/polyvinylchloride/$10^8$ in detecting IgG antibody, methanol/polystyrene/$10^9$, poly-L-lysine/polyvinylchloride/$10^8$ and poly-L-lysine/polyvinylchloride/$10^9$ in IgM and carbonate buffer/polystyrene/$10^8$, carbonate buffer/polystyrene/$10^9$, methanol/polystyrene/$10^8$, methanol/polyvinylchloride/$10^8$, methanol/polyvinylchloride/$10^9$, poly-L-lysine/polyvinylchloride/$10^8$ and poly-L-lysine/polyvinylchloride/$10^9$ in IgA. 2. The coaling method using poly-L-lysine, polyvinylchloride plate and $10^8\;cell/ml$ was best to assay IgG, IgM and IgA antibody all in one. By this method, to assay the each immunoglobulin calss with an appropriate fixed serum dilution, 1:320 dilution was best.

This paper presents a new concept to reduce turbulent frictional drag by injecting micro-bubble into near the buffer layer of turbulent boundary layer on flat plate. The concentrations of micro bubble distribution in the boundary was calculater by eddy viscosity equations in the governing equations. When near region of the buffer layer of turbulent boundary layer is filled with micro-bulle of air and viscous of the region is kept low, the velocity profile in the near region should be changed substantially. Then the Reynolds stress in the region becomes less, which guide to lower velocity gradient there. It results in reduction of velocity gradient at the viscous sublayer, which gives the reduction of shear stress at the wall.

This study was carried out solar heating system design for district heating and it's the performance analysis by experiment. This experimental system was installed in Bundang district heating area in the end of 2006. The flat plate and vacuum tube solar collector are combined in one system. So district heating water is heated first by flat plate solar collector and than by vacuum tube solar collector. This solar heating system has not a solar buffer tank and is operating with variable flow rate to obtain a setting temperature of $90{\sim}95^{\circ}C$. As a result, the daily solar thermal collection efficiency is about 30 to 40% for the plate type and 50 to 55% for the vacuum tube solar collector. It varied especially depend on the weather condition like as solar radiation and ambient temperature. This variable flow rate system can be also reduced much pumping power more than 50%.
