In this study, simulation and optimization works for a demethanizer column have been performed to obtain ethane and heavier products from a pretreated natural gas stream. Pretreated natural gas feed stream was partially condensed after being precooled by exchanging heat with demethanizer top vapor stream and by using an external refrigeration cycle with a propane refrigerant. Vapor stream was cooled further and partially condensed through a turbo-expander. The power generated from the expansion of turbo-expander was delivered to the compressor for the residue gas compression. Liquid stream was cooled by Joule-Thomson expansion valve and was fed to the middle section of the demethanizer. Recovery percent of ethane for feed natural was set to 80% and methane to ethane molar ratio was fixed as 0.0119. On the other hand, some of the cold heat could be recovered by splitting the feed stream and by exchanging heat with side reboiler in order to reduce the heat duty in the propane refrigeration cycle.

In this study, a compact hydrogen liquefaction system was constructed with the aim of creating a data storage and monitoring program for liquid hydrogen production. This program was designed to receive and record signals from diverse control equipment through the LabVIEW software. A range of measurement instruments were devised to collect data, encompassing variables such as flow rate, pressure, temperature, and liquid level. As a result, it was possible to directly check the production of liquid hydrogen by obtaining various data of condensed liquid hydrogen. In addition, it was confirmed that long-term storage of liquid hydrogen is possible by developing automatic ON/OFF through the LabVIEW program.

Dynamic extinction of solid propellants subjected to rapid pressure drop was studied with the aid of energy equation of condensed phase and flame model in gas phase. It is found that the total residence time($\tau_\gamma$) which measures the residing time of fuel in the reaction zone may play a crucial role in determining the dynamic response of the combustuion to extinction. Residence time was modeled by various combinations of diffusion and chemocal kinetic time scale. Effect of pressure history coupled with chamber volume on the extinction response was also performed and was found that dynamic extinction is more susceptible in a confined chamber than in open geometry. And, dynamic extinction was revealed to be affected profoundly by diffysion time scale rather than chemical kinetic time scale.

This work describes a model development and numerical simulation of detailed combustion mechanisms of RDX/GAP/BTIN propellants. The analysis is based on the conservation equations of mass, energy, and species concentrations for both the condensed and gas phases, and takes into account finite-rate chemical kinetics and variable thermophysical properties. The model has been applied to study the combustion wave structures and burning characteristics of RDX/GAP/BTIN propellants over a broad range of pressures. Reasonably good agreement is achieved between the calculated and measured burning rate at atmospheric pressure. But the model calculation does not result in dark zone experimentally observed.

The experiment for the sympathetic detonation (Sudo et al., 1951) (Fukuyama et al., 1958) in water was conducted. Composition B (RDX: 64%, TNT: 36%, Detonation velocity: 7900m/s) was used for both donor (the thickness was 50mm, and the diameter was 31mm) and receptor charges. The distance between the donor and the receptor, and the thickness (5, 7.5, 10mm) of the receptor were varied in the experiments. In order to investigate the basic characteristics of the underwater sympathetic detonation of high explosive, the sympathetic detonation phenomena were visualized by a high-speed camera (HADLAND PHOTONICS, IMACON790) in forms of streak and framing photographs. The 200ns/mm streak velocity was 2㎲. Manganin gauges (KYOWA Electronic INSTRUMENTS CO. SKF-21725) were used for the pressure measurements. The gauges were set under the receptor. The pressures during the complete and incomplete explosions were measured.

The reparation and characterization of cellulose esters LB films with various alkyl chain lengths were studied. Monolayers of cellulose triesters with medium chain length such as trioctanoate(C-8), tridecanoate(C-10), and tridodecanoate(C-12), exhibited a characteristic phase transition from expanded to condensed states. The mechanism of phase transition was discussed on the basis of the temperature dependence of the surface $pressure-area(\pi-A)$ isotherms. By the horizontal dipping method, X-type multilayers of cellulose esters were prepared and characterized using the contact angle and XPS spectra.

Changes of lipid components in modified oleoresin during cooking at high temperature were investigated. In preparation of the modified oleoresin, dried red pepper was milled to 100 mesh of size particle and extracted oily compounds by reduced pressure steam distillation . The rest part was reextracted and concentrated and concentrated. The extracts were combined. The same volume of water and 4% of polyglycerol condensed ricinoleate (PGDR) were added to the combined extract, and emulsified to make oleresin red pepper. Non-polar lipid components were quantified 3 times higher in the oleoresin than polar lipid components . The components of non-polar lipd was mainly triglyceride comprising 75.8%. The level of phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidyl ethanolamine were 38.6and 26.1%, respectively. linoleic acid was distinctively abundant (63.1%) and followed by palmitic acid, oleic acid, linolenic acid and stearic acid in the oleoresin. Oxidation of lipid at high temperature was principally affected by temperature rather than oxygen existence . With the result of oxidation , palmitic acid and myristic acid increased, however, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid decreased.

A computer simulation program of a high efficiency condensing heat exchanger is developed. The flue gas flows outside bare tube bundles both in strong cross flow and in weak counter flow and the cooling water inside the tubes. Condensing heat exchangers achieve high efficiency by reducing flue-gas temperatures to a level at which most of the water vapor in the flue gas is condensed and the latent heat associated with phase change of the water is recovered. The computer model has been verified by comparison with measured data. To verify the model, heat transfer coefficient was adjusted, along with the mass transfer diffusion coefficient and pressure drop coefficient, to achieve agreement between predicted and measured data. The efficiencies of heat exchanger increase 2.3 ~ 8.1% by condensations of 6.3 ~ 62.6% of the water vapor in the flue gas.

In order to fabricate ideal powders new processing is necessary in which the solute atoms in solution ra-pidly move to mix each other to the degree of molecular level the viscosity of solution should be low not to effect the moving of solute atoms and the powders could be directly obtained as crystalline. Supercritical fluid is defined as condensed gas sated up to its critical pressure and temperature. In this paper su-percritical fluid methods were studied as a new ceramic processing of powder preparation. The crystalline powders of TiO2 which are useful for electronic ceramic materials were fabricated by hydrolysis of titanium (IV) ethoxide using ethanol as a supercritical fluid at the condition of 270$\pm$3$^{\circ}C$, 7.3 MPa for 2hr. The cry stalline anatase powders could be directly obtained and its primary particle size was 20 min.

In Asia, the roots of Paeonia lactiflora and Astragalus membranaceus have been used as therapeutic agents for thousands of years. Once the medicinal plants are harvested, they are dried and their ingredients are extracted by heat-mediated reflux extraction. However, the condensed structure of organic products (especially roots) limits the extraction of bioactive components. In this study, we assessed the effect of the puffing method (using high temperature and pressure) before the extraction process in relation to the profile and antioxidant capacity of active ingredients. We demonstrated that the additional puffing process before extraction methods improves the yield of polyphenol concentrations and antioxidant activities from the roots of P. lactiflora and A. membranaceus.
