  • 발사체의 지상 운영과정이나 발사과정에서 일어날 수 있는 화재와 폭발사고 예방을 위해 1단 동체 내부에 형성될 수 있는 연소 환경에서 화염의 전파특성을 고찰해 보았다. 이를 위해 1단 동체 내부에 형성될 수 있는 고산소-저기압 환경을 연소챔버 내에 조성하고 고체연료를 점화시켜 화염 전파율을 측정하였다. 고체연료로는 두께가 0.18 mm인 광섬유를 사용하였다. 주어진 조건에서 산소농도가 증가함에 따라 광섬유를 따라 전파하는 화염의 속도는 급격히 증가하였지만 챔버 내의 압력이 대기압에 가까질 수록 화염의 전파속도는 감소하였다. 압력 증가에 따른 화염전파율의 감소의 원인을 파악하기 위해 대류열전달계수와 화염전파율의 압력 상관성 분석해 보았으며, 이를 통해 압력이 낮아질수록 대류 열손실이 줄어들어 화염전파율이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다.

  • 현재 대기중 $CO_2$ 농도를 감소시키기 위하여 $CO_2$를 해양에 격리 처리하고자 하는 방안이 모색되고 있으나 이러한 방안은 해양생물 및 생태계에 미치는 영향 정도에 따라 그 실현가능성이 결정될 것이다. 본 연구에서는 $CO_2$ 해양격리 처리와 관련하여 수행되어온 연구들을 정리하고, $CO_2$ 농도가 높아진 해양환경에서의 해양생물 특히 어류를 대상으로 수행된 최근의 연구결과를 정리하였다. $CO_2$ 농도의 증가는 어류에 있어 산염기조절, 호흡순환기적 조절 등과 같은 생리적 기능에 영향을 끼치고 결국 어류의 폐사를 초래할 것이다. $CO_2$가 해양생물에게 어떠한 영향을 미치는가에 대한 연구는 주로 천해어종을 대상으로 하여 진행되어 왔으나 향후의 연구는 천해어종에 대한 연구결과를 바탕으로 $CO_2$가 실제로 격리 처리되는 심해에서 $CO_2$에 대한 생물들의 응답에 관하여 조사할 필요가 있다.

  • In the present study, the ignition characteristics of liquid fuel were experimentally investigated. To quantify its ignitability as ignition characteristics, the minimum ignition energy (MIE) of liquid fuel was defined and measured under at the elevated oxygen concentrations and reduced atmospheric pressures which that are the most probable conditions likely to be encountered during operation of the space launch vehicle's operating process. The experimental results demonstrate that the measured MIE decreased with the increasing the oxygen concentration at given atmospheric pressures. When the atmospheric pressure was reduced from 1 atm to 0.2 atm at a fixed oxygen concentration, the measured MIE was found to vary with $P^{-2}$ but the lowest MIE was observed at 0.8 atm.

  • The effect of recirculated exhaust gas on exhaust emissions under four kinds of nozzle tip with the different fuel consumption rate are experimentally investigated by using an once-through boiler with FGR system. The purpose of this study is to develop the FGR control system for reducing NOx in a boiler. Intake and exhaust oxygen concentrations, and equivalence ratio are applied to discuss the effect of FGR rate on exhaust emissions at various fuel consumption rates. It is found that NOx emissions are decreased, while soot emissions are increased owing to the drop of intake and exhaust oxygen concentrations, and the rise of equivalence ratio as FGR rates are elevated.

  • Oxygen radical absorbance capacity(ORAC) is known to be a sensitive and simple method to determine total antioxidant capacity(TAC) in biological samples. While TAC has received great attention with its relation to pathogenesis in the progression of several diseases, little is known about association of ORAC with metabolic risk factors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between ORAC and serum lipid profiles, fasting glucose and anthropometric measures. One hundred seventeen volunteers participated in the study. Perchloric acid treated serum was used to determine $ORAC_{pca}$. Mean$ORAC_{pca}$ of subjects whose serum total cholesterol(TC) concentrations were $\geq$ 200 mg/dl was significantly(P < 0.05) higher than that of subjects whose TC concentrations were < 200mg/dl. There were significantly positive correlations between $ORAC_{pca}$ and serum concentrations of TC(P < 0.05) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol(P < 0.01). The positive relation between cholesterol concentrations and $ORAC_{pca}$ in serum may suggest an elevated TAC against oxidative stress associated with the cardiovascular risk factors.

  • The effects of recirculated exhaust gas on exhaust emissions under four kinds of nozzle tip with the different fuel consumption rates are experimentally investigated by using an once-through boiler with a FGR system. The purpose of this study is to develop the FGR control system for reducing $NO_x$ emissions in boilers. Intake and exhaust oxygen concentrations, and equivalence ratio are considered to figure out the effect of FGR rate on exhaust emissions at various fuel consumption rates. It is found that $NO_x$ emissions are markedly decreased, while soot emissions are increased owing to the drop of intake and exhaust oxygen concentrations, and the rise of equivalence ratio as FGR rates are elevated. One can also conclude that the reduction in $NO_x$ emissions is more considerably influenced by the variation of equivalence ratio due to the FGR rate than the fuel consumption rate.

  • 하계 가막만에서 발생하는 빈산소 수괴의 형성과정과 그 특성을 규명하기 위하여 2005년 6월 17일부터 2005년 9월 12일까지 주 간격으로 조사하였다. 표층 수온은 내만에서 만 입구로 갈수록 낮았으나, 저층 수온은 만 입구와 내만보다 만 중앙에서 높게 나타났다. 수괴의 수직적인 성층은 매우 발달하였으며, 수온약층은 수심 3-5m에서 관측되었다. 저층의 빈산소 수괴는 7월초에 내만 안쪽에서 나타났으며, 8월초에는 만 중앙부까지 확산되었다. 수괴의 평균투명도와 광소멸 계수($K_d$)는 각각 4.0m와 0.47로 나타났다. 저층의 영양염과 클로로필 ${\alpha}$ 농도는 표층보다 유의하게 높았으며, 만 입구보다 내만에서 높게 나타났다. 빈산소 수괴의 저층에서 퇴적물의 산소투과 깊이는 지극히 낮았으며, 산소소모율은 빈산소가 소멸된 수괴에서 보다 낮았다. 빈산소 수괴가 발생하는 기간동안 용존 산소 농도는 저층의 영양염 농도와 유의한 역 상관관계를 보였으나, 표층 영양염 농도와는 유의한 관계를 보이지 않았다. 저층에서 산소 감소의 촉진은 퇴적물에서 산소소모율 증가와 저층 부근에서 미생물에 의한 유기물 분해 때문인 것으로 판단되었다.

  • The present study was performed to investigate the effects of NH3-N and nitrifying microorganisms on the increased BOD of downstream of the Yeongsan river in Gwangju. Water samples were collected periodically from the 13 sampling sites of rivers from April to October 2021 to monitor water qualities. In addition, the trends of nitrogenous biochemical oxygen demand (NBOD) and microbial clusters were analyzed by adding different NH3-N concentrations to the water samples. The monitoring results showed that NH3-N concentration in the Yeongsan river was 22 times increased after the inflow of discharged water from the Gwangju 1st public sewage treatment plant (G-1-PSTP). Increased NH3-N elevated NBOD levels through the nitrification process in the river, consequently, it would attribute to the increase of BOD in the Yeongsan river. Meanwhile, there was no proportional relation between NBOD and NH3-N concentrations. However, there was a significant difference in NBOD occurrence by sampling sites. Specifically, when 5 mg/L NH3-N was added, NBOD of the river sample showed 2-4 times higher values after the inflow of discharged water from G-1-PSTP. Therefore, it could be thought other factors such as microorganisms influence the elevated NBOD levels. Through next-generation sequencing analysis, nitrifying microorganisms such as Nitrosomonas, Nitroga, and Nitrospira (Genus) were detected in rivers samples, especially, the proportion of them was the highest in river samples after the inflow of discharged water from G-1-PSTP. These results indicated the effects of nitrifying microorganisms and NH3-N concentrations as important limiting factors on the increased NBOD levels in the rivers. Taken together, comprehensive strategies are needed not only to reduce the NH3-N concentration of discharged water but also to control discharged nitrifying microorganisms to effectively reduce the NBOD levels in the downstream of the Yeongsan river where discharged water from G-1-PSTP flows.

  • The effects of recirculated exhaust gas on the characteristics of NOx and soot emissions under a wide range of engine loads were experimentally investigated by using a four-cycle, four-cylinder, sw irl chamber type, water-cooled diesel engine operating at three engine speeds. The purpose of this study was to develop the EGR-control system for reducing NOx and soot emissions simultaneously in diesel engines. The EGR system is used to reduce NOx emissions, and a novel diesel soot removal device with a cylinder-type scrubber for the experiment system was specially designed and manufactured to reduce soot contents in the recirculated exhaust gas to the intake system of the engine. The experiments were performed at the fixed fuel injection timing of 4$^{\circ}$ ATDC regardless of experimental conditions. It was found that soot emissions in exhaust gases were reduced by 20 to 70% when the scrubber was applied in the range of the experimental conditions, and that NOx emissions decreased markedly, especially at higher loads, while soot emissions increased owing to the decrease in intake and exhaust oxygen concentrations, and the increase in equivalence ratio as the EGR rate is elevated.

  • 이 연구는 습지의 수생 식물이 퇴적물에 유발하는 생지화학적 변화들을 식물이 존재하는 퇴적물과 존재하지 않는 퇴적물의 공극수 및 퇴적물을 비교 분석함으로써 살펴보았다. 현장 실험을 통하여 식물의 생장기간 동안 rhizosphere에서 높은 SO$_4{^{2-}}$ 농도가 관찰되었고, 이는 식물의 뿌리에서 방출된 산소가 주변 퇴적물에 존재하고 있는 sulfide를 산화시킨 결과라 판단된다. 측정된 AVS의 농도는 SO$_4{^{2-}}$ 농도 증가를 보여주기에 충분한 양이 존재하였고, 관찰된 SO$_4{^{2-}}$ 농도를 발생시키기 위해 AVS 산화에 요구되는 산소량은 0.85 g/m$^2$ day로 다른 연구자들의 연구결과와 부합되는 결과를 도출하였다. 식물이 존재하지 않는 퇴적물의 경우 대부분의 AVS가 지표면에 존재하고 있는데 비해 식물이 존재하는 경우 rhizosphere에서 가장 높은 농도의 AVS가 존재하고 있는 것으로 보아 식물의 evapotranspiration에 의해 지표수내 SO$_4{^{2-}}$가 혐기성 상태인 퇴적물 내부로 활발히 이동되어 졌음을 알 수 있다. 그 외에도, 식물에 의해 증가된 유기물은 퇴적물에서 탄소 순환에 중요한 역할을 하는 $\beta$-glucosidase 효소의 활성도를 증가시켰다.
