Coal is the most abundant energy source and deposited in every area of world. Combustion process with lower efficiency has been mainly used. Therefore, implementation of more efficient technologies, involving gasification, combined cycles and fuel cells, would be a key issue in the plans for more efficient power generation. In these technologies, gasification has been studied for decades. However, coal gasification to high value combustible gas such as hydrogen and carbon monoxide is focused again due to high oil price. The gaseous product, called syngas, can be effectively utilized in a variety of ways ranging from electricity production to chemical industry (as feedstock). In this study, coal gasification with ultra high temperature steam has been performed. The effect of steam/carbon ratio on the produced gas concentrations, gasification rate and additional products like tar, ammonia and cyan compounds has been determined.

The dynamic behavior of fatty acid monolayers at the air-water interface was investigated using a displacement current-measuring technique coupled with the so-called Langmuir film technique and also the dipole moment of the acids was determined. The displacement current flowing though a short circuit wan generated only when induced charges on an electrode flowing though suspended in air was changed by monolayer compression. The displacement current measurement was found to be a very sensitive method used for a better understanding of the relationship between the structure and function of the monolayers placed on the water surface and it was also found to be a very useful method for detecting the dynamic motion of molecules in the entire range from the so-called gaseous state to solid state at the same time. In the paper investigate fatty monolayer dynamic state and electric property character. As result. Displacement current generate higher nearly distance electrodel and water surface. Also, Molecule behavior was found pocess active higher thermal.

This paper describes experimental study and performance improvement of 2 stage Gifford-McMahon (G-M) type pulse tube cryocooler for cryopump. The objective of this study is to improve the efficiency of 2 stage pulse tube cryocooler for substituting 2 stage G-M cryocooler used in cryopump. The target cooling capacities are 5 W at 20 K and 35 W at 80 K for the $1^{st}$ and the $2^{nd}$ stage, respectively. These values are good cooling capacities for vacuum level in medium size ICP 200 cryopump. Design of the 2 stage pulse tube cryocooler is conducted by FZKPTR(Forschungs Zentrum Karlsruhe Pulse Tube Refrigerator) program. In order to improve the performance of 2 stage pulse tube cryocooler, U-type pulse tube cryocooler is fabricated and connecting tubes are minimized for reducing dead volumes and pressure losses. Also, to get larger capacities, orifice valves and double inlet valves are optimized and the compressor of 6 kW is used. On the latest unit, the lowest temperatures of 2 stage pulse tube cryocooler are 42 K ($1^{st}$ stage) and 8.3 K ($2^{nd}$ stage) and the cooling capacities are 40 W at 82.9 K ($1^{st}$ stage) and 10 W at 20.5 K ($2^{nd}$ stage) with 6.0 kW of compressor input power. This pulse tube cryocooler is suited for commercial medium size cryopump. In performance test of cryopump with 2 stage pulse tube cryocooler, pumping speed for gaseous nitrogen is 4,300 L/s and the ultimate vacuum pressure is $7.5{\times}10^{-10}$ mbar.

Since glass microsphere has high crush strength, low density and small particle size, it becomes alternative thermal insulation material for cryogenic systems, such as storage and transportation tank for cryogenic fluids. Although many experiments have been performed to verify the effective thermal conductivity of microsphere, prediction by calculation is still inaccurate due to the complicated geometries, including wide range of powder diameter distribution and different pore sizes. The accurate effective thermal conductivity model for microsphere is discussed in this paper. There are four mechanisms which contribute to the heat transfer of the evacuated powder: gaseous conduction ($k_g$), solid conduction ($k_s$), radiation ($k_r$) and thermal contact ($k_c$). Among these components, $k_g$ and $k_s$ were calculated by Zehner and Schlunder model (1970). Other component values for $k_c$ and $k_r$, which were obtained from experimental data under high vacuum conditions were added. In this research paper, the geometry of microsphere was simplified as a homogeneous solid sphere. The calculation results were compared with previous experimental data by R. Wawryk (1988), H. S. Kim (2010) and the experiment of this paper to show good agreement within error of 46%, 4.6% and 17 % for each result.

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) of $TiO_2$ thin film from $TiCl_4$ and $H_2O$ has been intensively studied since the invention of ALD method to grow thin films via chemical adsorptions of two precursors. However the role of HCl which is a gaseous byproduct in ALD chemistry for $TiO_2$ growth is still intriguing in terms of the growth mechanism. In order to investigate the role of HCl in $TiO_2$ ALD, HCl pulse and its purging steps are inserted in a typical sequence of $TiCl_4$ pulse-purge-$H_2O$ pulse-purge. When they are inserted after the first-half reaction (chemisorption of $TiCl_4$), the grown thickness of $TiO_2$ becomes thinner or thicker at lower or higher growth temperatures than $300^{\circ}C$, respectively. However the insertion after the second-half reaction (chemisorption of $H_2O$) results in severely reduced thicknesses in all growth temperatures. By using the result, we explain the growth mechanism and the role of HCl in $TiO_2$ ALD.

A feasibility study of thrust control of hybrid propulsion system for lunar exploration is presented. The thrust control experiments were performed by controlling the oxidizer mass flow rate where the thrust modulation is carried by using a ball valve and a stepping motor. The gaseous oxygen (GOX) and the HDPE (High Density PolyEthylene) were used for the oxidizer and solid fuel, respectively. It was found that the thrust levels were stable without much fluctuation during the modulation period, and that the thrust was exactly controlled with target thrust modulation ratio of 53% and 32%.

Dimethylaluminum isopropoxide (DMAI, $(CH_3)_2AlO^iPr$) as a single precursor, which contains one aluminum and one oxygen atom, has been adopted to deposit non-stoichiometric aluminum oxide ($AlO_x$) films by low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition without an additional oxygen source. The atomic concentration of Al and O in the deposited $AlO_x$ film was measured to be Al:O = ~1:1.1 and any serious interfacial oxide layer between the film and Si substrate was not observed. Gaseous by-products monitored by quadruple mass spectrometry show that ${\beta}$-hydrogen elimination mechanism is mainly contributed to the $AlO_x$ CVD process of DMAI precursor. The current-voltage characteristics of the $AlO_x$ film in Au/$AlO_x$/Ir metalinsulator-metal (MIM) capacitor structure show high ON/OFF ratio larger than ${\sim}10^6$ with SET and RESET voltages of 2.7 and 0.8 V, respectively. Impedance spectra indicate that the switching and memory phenomena are based on the bulk-based origins, presumably the formation and rupture of filaments.

The effect of Group I alkali acetate promoters on vinyl acetate (VA) synthesis was evaluated. Catalyst product selectivity and ethylene conversion are compared to the unpromoted catalyst in the fixed-bed reactor with oxidation reaction of ethylene and acetic acid in gaseous phase over Pd-Au/$SiO_2$ catalyst. It was found that: a) the promoters were stabilized on the catalyst surface, b) common effect for the alkali promoted Pd-Au catalysts increaseed in product selectivity and ethylene conversion compared to unpromoted catalyst (these effects increase from top to the bottom of Group I). These promoting effect is due to the common-ion effect of acetate, present in the reaction, resulting in an increase in the activity of the catalyst. In addition a complementary theory for the effect of Au in the structure of the catalyst is proposed the imposition of distribution of palladium particles through decreasing the particle's diameter.

The gaseous mixtures of iso-propanol of 10 torr with carbon dioxide of 0∼1990 torr were irradiated with Co-60 gamma radiation up to 50 kGy, and the products such as carbon monoxide, acetone, methane, ethane, C$_3$H$_a$, C$_4$H$_b$ and tert-butanol were analyzed by gas chromatography. G(CO) value of 4 was obtained from the gas mixtures containing more than 490 torr of carbon dioxide. The production rates of the organic products and the decomposition rate of iso-propanol increased linearly with the pressure of carbon dioxide, and G(-iso-Propanol) and G(Acetone) values increased by 4 and 2, respectively, with each 10 torr increment of carbon dioxide pressure. The mechanisms of the radiolytic decomposition of iso-propanol and the production of carbon monoxide and organic materials are discussed on the basis of the experimental results of the present study.

Spray characteristics of single round jet with liquid nitrogen and coaxial spray with liquid nitrogen and gaseous argon were observed. Shadowgraph method was used for spray visualization, and density gradient magnitude image was used to analyse the result. In subcritical condition, irregularity of the jet surface was harder in the coaxial spray. In supercritical condition, diffusion of nitrogen injected from shear coaxial injector was faster than single jet. Jet diameter was induced by averaging images, in supercritical condition, difference of diameter of coaxial jet was rapidly decreased than that of single jet.
