  • This study was carried out to examine the base temperature to flowering and the average days to flowering by accumulated hours of low temperature ($5.0^{\circ}C$) or changing temperature after bud breaking. Over-all, the prediction of flowering time in the commercial apple cultivars ('Fuji' and 'Tsugaru') and apple cultivars ('Chukwang', 'Gamhong', 'Hongan', 'Honggeum', 'Hongro', 'Hongso', 'Hwahong', 'Summer dream', 'Sunhong') bred in Korea at the Gunwi region for 4 years (from 2009 to 2012) was investigated. Also, this study estimated the flowering time when the air temperature of Gunwi region rises at $5.0^{\circ}C$ was investigated using the same data. The range of accumulated hours of low temperature (chilling requirement) was from 0 hour to 1,671 hours, and the range of high temperature (heat requirements) to flowering after low temperature treatment was from $5.0^{\circ}C$ to $29.0^{\circ}C$. The treatments of changing temperature after bud breaking were classified as constant temperature treatment (control) and $5.0{\sim}10.0^{\circ}C$ elevation or descent treatments. The results show that the average days to flowering was longer with shorter accumulated hours of low temperature, and the average days from bud breaking to flowering of 0 hour treatment was longer about 2~4 weeks than that of 1,335~1,503 hours treatments. In comparing to apple cultivars, the all cultivars were not flowered under $10.0^{\circ}C$ after bud breaking, and the cultivars with low chilling requirements needed low heat requirements for flowering. The average days to flowering of treatments that the air temperature after bud breaking was controlled about $15.0^{\circ}C$ was shorter about 1~3 weeks than that of treatments was controlled about $10.0^{\circ}C$. In the treatment of changing temperature after bud breaking, the average days from bud breaking to flowering of temperature elevation treatment was shorter than that of constant temperature treatment. By use of these results, the base temperature to flowering of main apple cultivars in Korea was seemed to $10.0^{\circ}C$, and if the air temperature of Gunwi region rises about $5.0^{\circ}C$ than that of current, the flowering time was estimated to be delayed by 1 week.

  • In the case of boiling on high temperature wall, vapor film covers fully or parcially the surface. This phenomenon, film boiling or transition boiling, is very important in the surface heat treatment of metal, design of cryogenic heat exchanger and emergency cooling of nuclear reactor. Mainly supposed hydraulic-thermal accidents in nuclear reactor are LCCA (Loss of Coolant Accident) and PCM (Power-Cooling Mismatch). Recently, world-wide studies on reflooding of high temperature rod bundles after the occurrence of the above accidents focus attention on wall temperature history and required time in transient cooling process, wall superheat at rewet point, heat flux-wall superheat relationship beyond the transition boiling region, and two-phase flow state near the surface. It is considered that the further systematical study in this field will be in need in spite of the previous results in ref. (2), (3), (4). The paper is the study about the fast transient cooling process following the wall temperature excursion under the CHF (Critical Heat Flux) condition in a forced convective subcooled boiling system. The test section is a vertically arranged concentric annulus of 800 mm long and 10 mm hydraulic diameter. The inner tube, SUS 304 of 400 mm long, 8 mm I.D, and 7 mm O.D., is heated uniformly by the low voltage AC power. The wall temperature measurements were performed at the axial distance from the inlet of the heating tube, z=390 mm. 6 chromel- alumel thermocouples of 76 .mu.m were press fitted to the inner surface of the heating tube periphery. To investigate the heat transfer characteristics during the fast transient cooling process, the outer surface (fluid side) temperature and the surface heat flux are computed from the measured inner surface temperature history by means of a numerical method for inverse problems of transient heat conduction. Present cooling (boiling) curve is sufficiently compared with the previous results.

  • This paper discuss some results of observed changes of meteorological elements as temperature, precipitation and some extreme indexes in Mongolia. Mongolia is one of the largest landlocked countries in the world. The climate is characterized by a long lasting cold winter, dry and hot summer, low precipitation, high temperature fluctuation and relatively high number of sunny days per year. During last 60 years the annual mean air temperature has risen $1.66^{\circ}C$. Intensive warming of > $2^{\circ}C$ was observed at higher altitudes of high mountains when warming of < $1^{\circ}C$ was observed the Domod steppe and the Gobi Desert. Heat Wave Duration have statistically significant risen trend with increaded number of days by 8-18 at significance level of 95-99.9% depending on geography and Cold Wave Duration have shortened by 13.3 days significance level of 95-99%. In general, by the amount of precipitation, Mongolia falls in semi-arid and arid region. It is 300-350 mm in the high mountain regions while it is only 50-150 mm in Gobi Desert regions. The changes of annual precipitation have very localized character i.e.decreasing at one site and increasing at a sit nearby. Annual precipitation decreased by 30-90 mm in the northern-central region and increased by 2-60 mm in the western and eastern region. The magnitude of alteration changes in precipitation regardless increasing or decreasing is 5-25%. A trends, significant at the level of 90%, found where changes are more than 40 mm or more than 15% of annual mean value. Moreover, the soil moisture resources was decreased in the last 40 years. Specially, moisture contents of the top soil have decreased 2 times(N. Natsagsuren, 2002). Months of June and July in Mongolia is the year that moisture is not inhibiting vegetation growth. Unfortunately, its also found that moisture in this time tends to decrease. Increased temperature, decreased precipitation and soil moisture are most likely resulted in occurences of more intense drought spells that have taken place during the recent years. Intimately, these changes have considerable impact on livestock in Mongolia.

  • We prepared $Y_3Al_5O_{12};Ce^{3+},Pr3^{+}$ transparent ceramic phosphor using a solid state reaction method. By XRD pattern analysis and SEM measurement, our phosphors reveal an Ia-3d(230) space group of cubic structure, and the transparent ceramic phosphor has a polycrystal state with some internal cracks and pores. In the Raman scattering measurement with an increasing temperature, lattice vibrations of the transparent ceramic phosphor decrease due to its more perfect crystal structure and symmetry. Thus, low phonon generation is possible at high temperature. Optical properties of the transparent ceramic phosphor have broader excitation spectra due to a large internal reflection. There is a wide emission band from the green to yellow region, and the red color emission between 610 nm and 640 nm is also observed. The red-yellow phosphor optical characteristics enable a high Color Rendering Index (CRI) in combination with blue emitting LED or LD. Due to its good thermal properties of low phonon generation at high temperature and a wide emission range for high CRI characteristics, the transparent ceramic phosphor is shown to be a good candidate for high power solid state white lighting.

  • Proteolytic digestion and CD measurement of wild-type and mutant cyclic AMP receptor proteins (CRPs) were performed either in the presence or absence of cyclic nucleotide. Results indicated that transition of a structural change to the hinge region by the binding of cAMP to the anti site was required for the binding of cAMP to the syn site near the hinge region and, although the occupancy of cAMP in the anti site increased the protein stability, CRP adopted more a stable conformation by the binding of cAMP to the syn site.

  • The strain aging behavior of a low carbon dual phase steel was examined in two conditions: representing room temperature strain aging (100 ℃ × 1 hr after 7.5 % prestrain) and bake hardening process (170 ℃ × 20 min after 2 % prestrain), basing on carbon effective diffusion and dislocation distribution. The first principle calculations revealed that (Mn or Cr)-vacancy-C complexes exhibit the strongest attractive interaction compared to other complexes, therefore, act as strong trapping sites for carbon. For room temperature strain aging condition, the carbon effective diffusion distance is smaller than the dislocation distance in the high dislocation density region near ferrite/martensite interfaces as well as ferrite interior considering the carbon trapping effect of the (Mn or Cr)-vacancy-C complexes, implying ineffective Cottrell atmosphere formation. Under bake hardening condition, the carbon effective diffusion distance is larger compared to the dislocation distance in both regions. Therefore, formation of the Cottrell atmosphere is relatively easy resulting in to a relatively large increase in yield strength under bake hardening condition.

  • The walk-way means a passage installed on the deck of a ship so that a person can safely move under any circumstances. So, the walk-way has to maintain a temperature of $5^{\circ}C$ or more for anti/de-icing even at an ambient temperature of $-62^{\circ}C$, a temperature in polar region. At present, the walk-way with heating cable is used, but the anti/de-icing effect is insufficient due to low heat transfer efficiency. Also, it has a construction problem due to heavy weight. In this study, an walk-way with a CNT surface heating element is proposed for the high anti/de-icing effect and the heating value per unit volume. The international standard survey, conceptual design, and simulation for the structural safety and the heat transfer are performed for the development of the proposed walk-way. To enhance the performance, the case studies based on the simulation analysis are conducted. Finally, the final prototype, applying the optimum material and thickness (3.2t of SS400) based on the case study results, is fabricated and experimented.

  • Magnetic field is commonly used in low temperature processing plasmas in order to obtain high density. E $\times$ B magnetron or surface multipole configuration were most popular. However, the properties of capacitively coupled rf plasma confined by axially applied static magnetic fields have rarely been studied. In this paper, the effects of magnetic field on the characteristics of 13.56MHz/40KHz argon plasma will be reported. Ion saturation current, electron temperature and plasma potential were measured by Langmuir probe and omissive probe. At low pressure region ($\sim$10mTorr), ion current was increased by a factor of 3 - 4 due to reduction of diffusion loss of charged particles to the wall. It was observed that magnetic field induces large time variation of the plasma potential. The experimental result was compared with particle-in-cell simulation. It was also observed that electron temperature tend to decrease with increasing magnetic induction level for 40KHz discharge.

  • The effect of Ca addition on the microstructure evolution and deformation behavior of AZ31 magnesium alloy produced by hot extrusion was investigated. For this purpose, Ca was added into AZ31 melts to the level of 0.7 and 2.0 wt.% Ca. Then, AZ31 base alloy and Ca modified AZ31 alloys were extruded at $383^{\circ}C$. Ca added alloys showed finer grain size and increased hardness value rather than AZ31 base alloy. After isothermal hot compression, the shape of tested specimen exhibited a noticeable anisotropy due to the crystallographic texture effect. The ratio of major and minor axes of ovality was not directly related to test condition and Ca amount. Flow stress level increases with the increase of Ca addition at temperature below $300^{\circ}C$ because of fine microstructure. However, at high temperature and low strain rate region ($400^{\circ}C$ and $10^{-3}s^{-1}$), reverse tendency was observed since main deformation mechanism changes from dislocation slip to grain boundary sliding or diffusional process at high temperature.

  • Precipitation forecasts from MM5 have been verified for the period 1989-2001 over Yeongdong region to show a tendency of model forecast. We select 57 events which are related with the heavy snowfall in Yeongdong region. They are classified into three precipitation types; mountain type, cold-coastal type, and warm type. The threat score (TS), the probability of detection (POD), and the false-alarm rate (FAR) are computed for categorical verification and the mean squared error (MSE) is also computed for scalar accuracy measures. In the case of POD, warm, mountain, and cold-coastal precipitation type are 0.71, 0.69, and 0.55 in turn, respectively. In aspect of quantitative verification, mountain and cold-coastal type are relatively well matched between forecasts and observations, while for warm type MM5 tends to overestimate precipitation. There are 12 events for the POD below 0.2, mountain, cold-coastal, warm type are 2, 7, 3 events, respectively. Most of their precipitation are distributed over the East Sea nearby Yeongdong region. These events are also shown when there are no or very weak easterlies in the lower troposphere. Even in the case that we use high resolution sea surface temperature (about 18 km) for the boundary condition, there are not much changes in the wind direction to compare that with low resolution sea surface temperature (about 100 km).
