  • Temperatures of engine head and liner depend on many factors such as spray and combustion process, coolant passage flow and engine related structures. To estimate the temperature distribution of engine structure, multi-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes have been mainly adopted. In this case, it is of great importance to obtain the realistic wall temperature distribution of entire engine structure. In the present work, a CFD-FEM coupling methodology was presented to address this demand. This approach was applied to a real large-size marine diesel engine. CFD combustion and coolant flow simulations were coupled to FEM temperature analysis. Wall heat flux and wall temperature data were interfaced between combustion simulation and solid component temperature analysis via translator by a commercial CFD package named FIRE by AVL. Heat transfer coefficient and surface temperature data were exchanged and mapped between coolant flow simulation and FEM temperature analysis. Results indicate that there exists the optimum cell thickness near combustion chamber wall to reasonably predict the wall heat flux during combustion period. The present study also shows that the effect of cell refining on predicting in-cylinder pressure during combustion is negligible. Hence, the basic guidance on obtaining the wall heat flux needed for the reasonable CFD-FEM coupling analysis has been established. It is expected that this coupling methodology is a robust tool for practical engine design and can be applied to further assessment of the temperature distribution of other engine components.

  • The objective of this study was to examine changes in the porosity and internal structure of wood as it goes through the process of saccharification (extraction of fermentable sugars). This study also examined the use of different drying methods to prepare samples for characterization of internal pores, with particular emphasis on the partially disrupted cell wall. Aspen wood flour samples after dilute acid pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis were examined for nitrogen adsorption. The resulting isotherms were analyzed for surface area, pore size distribution, and total pore volume. Results showed that freeze drying (with sample pre-freezing) maintains the cell wall structure, allowing for examination of saccharification effects. Acid pretreatment (hemicellulose removal) doubled the surface area and tripled the total volume of pores, which were mostly 10-20 nm wide. Subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis (cellulose removal) caused a 5-fold increase in the surface area and a ~ 11-fold increase in the total volume of pores, which ranged from 5 to 100 nm in width. These results indicate that nitrogen adsorption analysis is a feasible technique to examine the internal pore structure of lignocellulosic residues after saccharification. The information on the pore structure will be useful when considering value-adding options for utilizing the solid waste for biofuel production.

  • PURPOSES : This study is to suggest future development direction and application of environmental noise barriers as multi-functional soundproof wall. METHODS : Based on the literature review, case study and patent search, research and patent trend were investigated. Patent search was conducted by Patent searching tools, 'Focust'. RESULTS : As environmental noise barriers, Vegetative soundproof wall, photovoltaic soundproof wall, and air-pollution reduction soundproof wall were investigated. First of all, In Korea, Vegetative soundproof wall is being developed mostly as soundproof wall that has vegetation foundation inside, to meet the domestic condition with 23 patent applications. Second, Photovoltaic soundproof wall is being developed mainly with efficiency of photovoltaic system rather than soundproofing. And it is limited to one generation solar cell technology, although Solar cell technology is developing at a rapid pace. On the other hand, for reducing air-pollutant by soundproof wall, a variety of methods are being suggested (filtration, adsorption, and photocatalytic oxidation), and one of them, adsorption are applied for developing air pollution reduction soundproof wall in Korea. CONCLUSIONS: The above soundproof wall is not simple structure, but road facility applied fusion technique. Therefore, as one system, it is difficult to harmonize due to various considerations for design factor. However, if it's possible that a benefits of one system apply to another system, Synergy effect may be created. In the foreseeable future, soundproof wall may be considered as a road system using fusion technique rather than just functional facility. Therefore, substantial studies for applying multi-functional soundproof wall on the road are needed for the future.

  • The Zns thin films were deposited on non-alkali glass substrate by the Hot Wall method. The thin films grown at various evaporation cell and substrate temperature were characterized by spectrophotometer and X-ray diffraction to investigate the optical and structural characteristics. The deposition rates were increased with increasing the cell temperature, and were decreased with increasing substrate. The optical characteristics of thin films depends on the deposition rates. The band gap energies measured at room temperature with 3.4~3.5eV are smaller than the theoretical value of 3.54eV. All ZnS thin films are oriented in (111) of the principal direction of a zincblende structure.

  • Agricultural products are easily deformable its shape because of some external forces. However, these force behavior is difficult to measure quantitatively. Until now, many researches on the mechanical property was performed with various methods such as material testing, chemical analysis and non-destructive methods. In order to investigate force behavior on the cellular unit of agricultural products, electro-microscope based 3D image processing method will contribute to analysis of plant cells behavior. Before image measurement of plant cells, plant sample was cut off cross-sectioned area in a size of almost 300-400 ${\mu}$ m units using the micron thickness device, and some of preprocessing procedure was performed with fixing and dyeing. However, the wall structure of plant cell is closely neighbor each other, it is necessary to separate its boundary pixel. Therefore, image merging and shrinking algorithm was adopted to avoid disconnection. After then, boundary pixel was traced through thinning algorithm. Each image from the electro-microscope has a information of x,y position and its height along the z axis cross sectioned image plane. 3D image was constructed using the continuous image combination. Major feature was acquired from a fault image and measured area, thickness of cell wall, shape and unit cell volume. The shape of plant cell was consist of multiple facet shape. Through this measured information, it is possible to construct for structure shape of unit plant cell. This micro unit image processing techniques will contribute to the filed of agricultural mechanical property and will use to construct unit cell model of each agricultural products and information of boundary will use for finite element analysis on unit cell image.

  • 이전에 개발된 병렬 해석 코드를 이용하여 원형 관내에서의 삼차원 데토네이션 파 전파 특성을 관찰 하였다. 일련의 해석을 통하여 직경이 일정한 원형 관에서 반응 속도 상수 값 k에 의존하는 데토네이션 셀 생성 메커니즘을 알 수 있었다. 삼차원 유동에 대한 비정상 유동의 해석 결과는 two-, three-, four-cell 구조의 메커니즘을 잘 보여주었으며, 반응속도 상수 k가 증가함에 따라 생성되는 셀 수가 증가하고 셀의 폭과 길이는 감소하였다. 모든 다중-셀 모드에서 데토네이션 파의 구조와 그을음막 기록은 횡단파의 움직임에 의하여 만들어지며, 데토네이션 파면은 주기적으로 일정한 다각형 및 풍차 형상을 가지게 된다.

  • Considerable attention has been focused on the applications of flexible liquid crystal (LC)-based displays because of their many potential advantages, such as portability, durability, light weight, thin packaging, flexibility, and low power consumption. To develop flexible LCDs that are capable of delivering high-quality moving images, like conventional glass-substrate LCDs, the LC device structure must have a stable alignment layer of LC molecules, concurrently support uniform cell gaps, and tightly bind two flexible substrates under external tension. However, stable LC molecular alignment has not been achieved because of the layerless LC alignment, and consequently high-quality images cannot be guaranteed. To solve these critical problems, we have proposed a PDMS pixel-wall based bonding method via the IB irradiation was developed for fasten the two substrates together strongly and maintain uniform cell gaps. The effect of the IB irradiation on PDMS with PI surface was also evaluated by side structure configuration and a result of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis of PDMS interlayer as a function of binder with substrates. large number of PDMS pixel-walls are tightly fastened to the surface of each flexible substrate and could maintain a constant cell gap between the LC molecules without using any other epoxy or polymer. To enhance the electro-optical performance of the LC device, we applied an alignment method that creates pretilt angle on the PI surface via ion beam irradiation. Using this approach, our flexible LCDs have a contrast ratio of 132:1 and a response time of about 15 ms, resulting in highly reliable electro-optical performance in the bent state, comparable to that of glass-substrate LCDs.

  • A. nidulans의 색소결핍 억제돌연변이주(Suppressor mutant of the null pigmentation; SU-NPG)의 세포벽 구조가 색소형성 및 균사분지에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. SEM으로 세포 표면구조를 관찰한 결과, 완전배지에서 배양된 SU-NPG의 분생포자벽은 최외각 층이 6일 째부터 박리되었으며, 균사생장이 저조하였다 TEM으로 관찰한 결과, 균사 세포벽은 매우 두꺼워졌다. 이러한 전자현미경관찰 결과는 이들 돌연변이주의 세포벽 구조가 NPG 및 야생형의 그것과는 다르다는 것을 시사한다. 균사에 탄수화물 염색을 한 후, 세포화학적 미세구조를 관찰한 결과, 분생포자벽은 C1, C2, C3와 C4 층으로 되어 있었고, 균사 세포벽은 H1, H2, H3와 H4층으로 되어 있었다. 이러한 C3층과 H3층은 세포분화 시 색소형성 및 균사 분지형성에 필수적인 세포벽 구조임 을 시사한다. SU-NPG는 FGSC4에서와는 다르게 비정상적인 균사생장을 하였지만, 색소결핍 돌연변이를 억제하는데, 이는 SU-NPG의 균사 세포벽에는 H3층이 형성되었으며, 세포벽 형성과정은 정상적으로 진행되기 때문으로 사료된다.
