  • Interzonal air movements are important to characterize overall ventilation performance of complicated multi-zone buildings. Tracer gas techniques are widely used to measure ventilation rates, ventilation effectiveness, and interzonal air movements. Depending on the number of gases used, they are divided into single and multi tracer gas methods. This paper deals with the comparison of the tracer gas methods in measuring air exchange rate between rooms. Experiments have been conducted in a simple two-room model with known airflow rates. In multi-gas procedure, the concentration decays of two tracer gases, i.e SF6 and R134a are measured after simultaneous injections in each room. The single tracer gas method is also applied by injecting SF6 gas with a time lag between two rooms. The data reduction procedures are developed to obtain the interzonal airflow rate using the matrix inversion, and various data manipulation methods are tested, such as data shift, interpolation, and smoothing. Uncertainty for each airflow rate is investigated depending on the parameters based on the setting values.

  • Mass loss and changes of mineral nutrients during decomposition of Phragmites communis for 13 months from November 1998 to December 1999, were investigated at the fringe of stream at Boryeong, Chungnam Province in Korea. Plant materials, which were collected in November 1998. were divided into leaves, culms and rhizomes. Litterbags, 15${\times}$15 cm, were made of nylon mesh with 2-mm$^2$ holes. At 13 months after installation, remaining mass of leaves, culms and rhizomes was 29.0%, 57.4%, 20.6%, respectively. Mass loss rate of the culms was significantly lower than those of the leaves and rhizomes. The decay rate of leaves, culms and rhizomes was 1.21. 0.42 and 1.48 per year, respectively. Initial concentration of N, P, K, Ca and Mg of leaves. culms and rhizomes was 22.5, 9.0, 15.5 mg/g for N, 0.34. 0.10, 0.33 mg/g for P, 15.0, 12.5. 12.3 mg/g for K, 2.84. 0.80, 0.03 mg/g for Ca. 1.94. 0.97, 0.40 mg/g for Mg, respectively. Concentrations of nutrients were higher in leaves than in culms and rhizomes. Except for N and Mg in rhizomes, there was no immobilization period during the decomposition. In the case of remaining K and Ca, most are lost during the first 3 months. Without any suitable method for removal of dead part, eutrophication of freshwater may be accelerated by dead macrophytes.

  • Due to the rapid increase of long-distance transportation, particular attentions have been paid to truck tires, especially to their dynamic characteristics. In this research, experimental modal analysis on two kinds of light-duty truck tires, i.e., radial tire and bias tire, are performed by using GRFP(global rational fraction polynomial) method to investigate differences of the dynamic behavior of the two tires. The test results have shown that the modal frequencies of bias tire are much higher than the corresponding values of radial tire with a similar mode shape, which is in accordance with the fact that the radial rigidity of bias tire is higher than that of radial tire. And most of the modal decay rates of bias tire are larger than those of radial tire within the scope of this experiment. In the frequency domain range of test, the bias tire has extra modes, which do not occur in the radial tire. This difference is based on the fact that the circumferential rigidity of the bias tire is quire low whereas that of radial tire is so high that the frequencies of the corresponding modes are out of the frequency range of test.

  • Cotyledon Black Decay (CBD) on soybean sprout mimics the black spot due to microbial infection. CBD, not visible or predictable at seedlot state, for some reason, shows up exclusively on cotyledon of soybean sprout during sprouting process. Such an incidence rate fluctuated from 0.8 to 19.5% over three years from 2004. We suspected some pod-infecting anthracnose fungi and/or pod-blight pathogen, or pod-sucking bean bug, one of the major pests of soybean, might have involved, of which we ruled out fungal pathogen because it was preventable through heat treatment, a proven method for seedlot disinfestation. The healthy seeds artificially fed by bean bug for one to seven days were sprouted, and 6 to 41% of the soybean sprout revealed the CBD mimic to those occurred in soybean sprout from previous commercial seedlot screening experiments. This finding is the first report to confirm that bean bug damage to pod at $R_8$ stage is directly responsible for the CBD, which did not concur with any other deleterious effects on sprouting such as reduction in hypocotyls elongation and rooting except unsightly sprout quality. However, earlier feeding either at green pod or greenish yellow pod stage ($R_6$ -early $R_7$ stage) resulted in rather severe damages, which strikingly reduced hypocotyls growth to about one forth to about two third, as well as the reduction in rates of seed germination.

  • 자기공명검층은 수소와 자기장의 상호작용을 측정, 분석하는 물리검층 방법으로 이는 저류층 평가를 위한 중요한 물리검층 방법 중 하나이다. 측정된 감쇠 신호 즉, 이완은 측정지역 내 수소의 밀도에 대한 정보와 유체의 종류에 따른 감쇠속도에 대한 정보를 포함하고 있으며, 이를 바탕으로 공극률, 투과도와 습윤도 등을 예측할 수 있다. 1950년대 초반 랜덤워크로 자기공명의 이완감쇠를 시뮬레이션한 것을 시작으로 자기공명반응에 대한 연구가 급격히 발전되었다. 이 논문에서는 자기공명 시뮬레이션의 연구 동향을 먼저 살펴 보고, 자기공명반응인 이완을 발생시키는 이완메커니즘에 대해 간단히 알아본다. 이에 기초하여 자기공명검층에서 주로 측정하는 횡축이완곡선을 자기장구배를 고려하는 경우와 고려하지 않는 시뮬레이션 방법에 대해 비교분석하고 자기장구배가 이완메커니즘 및 횡축이완곡선에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석한다.

  • A numerical procedure is introduced to calculate local ventilation effectiveness using the definitions of local decay rate and local mean age. A low Reynolds number $k-{\varepsilon}$ model is implemented to calculate steady state turbulent velocity distributions, and a step-down method is used to calculate transient concentration distributions. Simulations are carried out for several different values of air change rates and several different diffuser angles in a two-dimensional model of a half scale office room. The results show that the local ventilation effectiveness within a room could vary significantly from one location to another. The nominal air change rate based on the assumption of complete mixing of room air does not provide the local ventilation effectiveness information. It is numerically proved that the local mean age distribution obtained from the transient calculation is equivalent to the steady state concentration distribution with homogeneously distributed contaminant sources.

  • 본 연구에서는 유기성폐기물의 최종생분해도를 평가하여 혐기소화조의 정확한 효율평가를 위한 기초자료를 확보하고 유기물의 분해경향을 보다 정확히 평가할 수 있는 다중 분해속도분석(Multiple k analysis)기법을 개발하여 다중 분해속도상수와 각각의 분해속도에 관여하고 있는 기질의 분율을 산정하려는데 목적이 있다. 연구 결과 폐활성슬러지의 최종생분해도는 50%, 농축슬러지는 40%로 평가되어 85%내외의 생분해도를 나타낸 Sorghum이나 Swine Waste에 비해 현저히 낮았다. 활성슬러지의 경우 생분해가능한 기질의 71%가 22일내에 초기분해속도상수 $k_1$인, $0.151\;day^{-1}$로 빠르게 분해되고 그 이후로 남아 있는 29%의 기질이 분해속도상수 $k_2$인, $0.021\;day^{-1}$로 아주 느리게 분해되었다. 반면 농축슬러지의 경우는 기질의 39%만이 $k_1$인, $0.123\;day^{-1}$로 빠르게 분해되었으며 60% 이상이 $k_2$인, $0.001\;day^{-1}$로 매우 느리게 분해되었다. 한편 Sorghum은 초기분해속도상수($k_1$)인 $0.248{\sim}0.358\;day^{-1}$ 범위로 기질의 약 90%($S_1$)가 16일 이내에 빠르게 분해되었으며 축분의 경우 $k_1$인, $0.155{\sim}0.209\;day^{-1}$ 범위로 기질의 $84{\sim}91%(S_1)$가 14일 이내에 빠르게 분해됨을 알 수 있다. 따라서 Multi k Analysis방법을 이용하여 도출된 하수 슬러지의 분해속도상수와 기질의 분율 및 분해패턴을 토대로 혐기성소화시 효율적이고 경제적인 HRT의 산정이 가능하다.

  • Indoor air quality might be affected by source strength of indoor pollutants, ventilation rate, decay rate, outdoor level, and so on. Although technologies measuring these factors exist directly, direct measurements of all factors are not always practical in most field studies. The purpose of this study was to develop an alternative method to estimate the source strength and deposition constant by application of multiple measurements. For the total duration of 60 days, indoor and outdoor $NO_2$ concentrations every 3 days were measured in 30 houses in Seoul, Asan and Daegu. Using a compartment model by mass balance and linear regression analysis, penetration factor (ventilation divided by sum of air exchange rate and deposition constant) and source strength factor (emission rate divided by sum of air exchange rate and deposition constant) were calculated. Subsequently, the source strength and deposition constant were estimated. Natural ventilation was $1.80{\pm}0.42\;ACH,\;1.11{\pm}0.50\;ACH,\;0.92{\pm}0.26\;ACH$ in Seoul, Asan and Daegu, respectively. Calculated deposition constant(K) and source strength of $NO_2,$ in this study were $0.98{\pm}0.28\;hr^{1}\;and\;16.28{\pm}7.47\;ppb/h,$ respectively.

  • Deoxygadusol (DO) and structurally related mycosporine-like amino acids, i.e. mycosporine glycine (MO) and mycosporine taurine (MT), were isolated from phytoplankton Prorocentrum micans and studied for the reactivity toward singlet oxygen. These water-soluble compounds with a cyclohexenone chromophore were all shown to be highly effective in quenching singlet oxygen ($^1$ $O_2$), with the efficiencies being significantly larger compared with histidine, a well-known $^1$ $O_2$ quencher. The $^1$ $O_2$ reaction rate constant ( $k_{Q}$) of DG was determined to be 5.4 ${\times}$ 10$^{7}$ $M^{-1}$ $s^{-1}$ by a steady state method based on competitive inhibition of rubrene oxidation. The feasibility of this method was confirmed by estimating the $k_{Q}$ values for MG and two other quenchers, furfuryl alcohol and 1,4-diazabicyclo [2,2,2]octane, and comparing with those values determined by the time-resolved $^1$ $O_2$ decay method in the previous work.ork.
