그라우팅 공법은 지하 내 구조물을 건설 시 유입되는 지하수를 억제하거나 암반의 강도를 증대시킬 목적으로 널리 이용되는 암반 개량공의 일종이다. 암반 내 불연속면을 따라 유동하는 그라우트의 유동 특성을 파악하는 것은 이러한 그라우팅 설계 및 그 효과를 예측하는데 필수적이다. 기존의 그라우트 유동 연구에서 그라우트 유동을 층류 유동으로 가정해 왔으나, 마이크로 스케일의 간극을 가지는 좁은 절리 틈새 내에서의유체 유동은 절리 거칠기의 영향을 받아 유동의 속도 단면이 거칠기 부분에서 변하기 때문에 일반적인 층류유동으로 모사하는 데 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 거칠기를 가지는 절리 내의 그라우트 유동에 절리 거칠기와 간극이 미치는 영향을 수치해석을 이용하여 조사하였다. 수치해석을 위해 전산유체유동해석 코드인 FLUENT 코드를 이용하였으며 FLUENT 코드에서 제공하는 Herschel-Bulkely 모델과 VOF(volume of fluid) 모델을 적용하여 물과 공기로 채워진 좁은 절리 틈새 내의 그라우트 유동을 모사하였다. 모사된 결과를 그라우트 유동을 위해 제시된 분석해와 기존의 실험실 그라우트 주입 실험 결과와 비교하여 FLUENT 코드의 적합성을 검증하였다. JRC와 간극 변화에 따라 일정 그라우트 주입량 유지에 필요한 주입압을 계산함으로써 마이크로 스케일의 절리 틈새 내 그라우트 유동시 채널 벽면의 거칠기 및 채널 간극의 영향을 정량화하였다.

There is a great demand to manipulate biological cell autonomously since biologist should spend much time to obtain skillful manipulation techniques. For this purpose, we propose a cell chip to control, carry, fix and locate the cell. In this paper, we focus on the cell rotator to rotate individual biological cell based on a micro fluidics technology. The cell rotator consists of injection hole and rotation well to rotate a biological cell properly. Under the variation of flow rate in injection hole, the angular velocity of a biological cell is evaluated to find the feasibility of the proposed rotation method. As a practical experiment, Zebrafish egg is employed. Based on this research, we find the possibility of non-contact rotation way that can highly reduce the damage of the biological cell during manipulation. To realize an autonomous biological cell manipulation, a cell chip with manipulation well and micro channel in this research will be utilized effectively in near future.

합성 하수 및 실제 하수를 이용한 금속 막의 정밀 여과 공정에서 분리 막의 전체 저항의 증가는 입자의 막 표면 축적에 의한 케이크 층의 저항 ($R_c$)에 가장 큰 영향을 받았다. 막 오염 저감을 위한 방법으로 오존 가스를 이용한 간헐적 역세정은 공기에 의한 경우보다 막 오염 저감에 훨씬 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 운전 인자에 대한 영향으로 동일한 오존 주입량에서는 주입시간을 길게 하기보다는 주입 가스 유량을 크게 할수록 더 높은 막 투과 유속의 회복을 보였다. 여과시간이 길수록 오존가스를 이용한 막 오염 저감효과가 감소하는 것으로 나타나 부착층 및 막 내부에서 파울링 물질에 의한 비가역적인 막 오염이 발생하기 전에 막 세정을 실시하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 판단된다.

The influence of the water vapor on the growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was investigated. SWCNTs were synthesized by catalytic chemical vapor deposition of acetylene over Fe-Mo/MgO catalyst with injection of water vapor. The morphologies and structures of the water-assisted SWCNTs were investigated according to the growth conditions such as water vapor concentrations, flow rate of the gas, furnace temperature, and growth time. Water-assisted SWCNTs exhibited large bundle morphological features with well-alignment of each CNT, while SWCNTs synthesized in the absence of water vapor showed entangled CNT with the random orientation. We also found that the diameter of the SWCNT bundle could be controlled by the growth condition. In our optimal growth condition, the product yield and the purity were 300 wt. % and 75%, which were 7.5 and 2.5 times higher than those of SWCNTs synthesized without water vapor, respectively. More detail discussion will be offered at the poster presentation.

Recently, three-dimensional (3D) cell culture systems, which are superior to conventional two-dimensional (2D) vascular systems that mimic the in vivo environment, are being actively studied to reproduce drug responses and cell differentiation in organisms. Conventional two-dimensional cell culture methods (scaffold-based and non-scaffold-based) have a limited cell growth rate because the culture cannot supply the culture medium as consistently as microvessels. To solve this problem, we would like to propose a 3D culture system with an environment similar to living cells by continuously supplying the culture medium to the bottom of the 3D cell support. The 3D culture system is a structure in which microvascular structures are combined under a scaffold (agar, collagen, etc.) where cells can settle and grow. First, we have manufactured molds for the formation of four types of microvessel-mimicking chips: width / height ①100 ㎛ / 100 ㎛, ②100 ㎛ / 50 ㎛, ③ 150 ㎛ / 100 ㎛, and ④ 200 ㎛ / 100 ㎛. By injection molding, four types of microfluidic chips were made with GPPS (general purpose polystyrene), and a 100㎛-thick PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) film was attached to the top of each microfluidic chip. As a result of observing the flow of the culture medium in the microchannel, it was confirmed that when the aspect ratio (height/width) of the microchannel is 1.5 or more, the fluid flows from the inlet to the outlet without a backflow phenomenon. In addition, the culture efficiency experiments of colorectal cancer cells (SW490) were performed in a 3D culture system in which PDMS films with different pore diameters (1/25/45 ㎛) were combined on a microfluidic chip. As a result, it was found that the cell growth rate increased up to 1.3 times and the cell death rate decreased by 71% as a result of the 3D culture system having a hole membrane with a diameter of 10 ㎛ or more compared to the conventional commercial. Based on the results of this study, it is possible to expand and build various 3D cell culture systems that can maximize cell culture efficiency by cell type by adjusting the shape of the microchannel, the size of the film hole, and the flow rate of the inlet.

The objectives of this study are to examine the processing of oils contamination soil by means of using a micronano-bubble soil washing system, to investigate the various factors such as washing periods, the amount of micro-nano bubbles generated depending on the quantity of acid injection and quantity of air injection, to examine the features involved in the elimination of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) contained in the soil, and thus to evaluate the possibility of practical application on the field for the economic feasibility. The oils contaminated soil used in this study was collected from the 0~15 cm surface layer of an automobile junkyard located in U City. The collected soil was air-dried for 24 hours, and then the large particles and other substances contained in the soil were eliminated and filtered through sieve No.10 (2 mm) to secure consistency in the samples. The TPH concentration of the contaminated soil was found to be 4,914~5,998 mg/kg. The micronano-bubble soil washing system consists of the reactor, the flow equalization tank, the micronano- bubble generator, the pump and the strainer, and was manufactured with stainless material for withstanding acidic phase. When the injected air flow rate was fixed at 2 L/min, for each hydrogen peroxide concentrations (5, 10, 15%) the removal percents for TPH within the contaminated soil with retention times of 30 minutes were respectively identified as 4,931 mg/kg (18.9%), 4,678 mg/kg (18.9%) and, 4,513 mg/kg (17.7%). And when the injected air flow rate was fixed at 2 L/min, for each hydrogen peroxide concentrations (5, 10, 15%) the removal percents for TPH within the contaminated soil with retention times of 120 minutes were respectively identified as4,256 mg/kg (22.3%), 4,621 mg/kg (19.7%) and 4,268 mg/kg (25.9%).

본 연구에서는 다단계 수압파쇄와 수평시추가 적용된 셰일가스정에서 생산자료의 유동형태에 따라 적절한 분석 방법과 궁극가채량을 산출하는 기법을 결정하는 방법을 정리한 흐름도를 제안하였다. 또한 1차 천이유동만이 나타나는 현장자료에 대해 생산천이유동 분석을 수행할 때 고려해야 하는 사항들을 제안하였다. log-log 그래프와 시간제곱근 그래프 분석을 통해 생산자료의 유동 특성을 분류할 수 있고, 이 결과, 1차 천이유동만이 나타나는 생산자료는 이 유동이 종료되는 시점을 정확히 예측하여 이 시점을 기준으로 생산성을 각각 예측하여야 한다. 이 시점은 미세탄성파 탐사자료 해석을 통해 균열자극부피의 면적을 계산함으로써 산출할 수 있다. 공저압력자료나 미세탄성파 탐사자료가 없다면 셰일가스정에 적절한 경험적 방법을 활용하여 생산성을 예측할 수 있다. 생산기간이 짧은 자료는 상대적으로 생산기간이 긴 인접 생산정의 자료를 활용하여 생산기간의 적절성을 평가한 후 필요하다면 생산초기 자료를 제외하고 분석하는 것이 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있다. 또한 미세탄성파 탐사자료 해석에 의해 산출된 SRV는 분석방법이나 분석자의 주관에 의해 과대, 과소 평가될 수 있기 때문에 파쇄 단계, 파쇄유체 주입량, 생산성 분석을 통한 적절성평가를 수행하여 필요한 경우, 저류층 시뮬레이션, 균열모델링, 생산천이분석을 통해 재산정하는 것이 필요하다.

Hybrid rockets have lately attracted attention as a strong candidate of small, low cost, safe and reliable launch vehicles. A significant topic is that the first commercially sponsored space ship, SpaceShipOne vehicle chose a hybrid rocket. The main factors for the choice were safety of operation, system cost, quick turnaround, and thrust termination. In Japan, five universities including Hokkaido University and three private companies organized "Hybrid Rocket Research Group" from 1998 to 2002. Their main purpose was to downsize the cost and scale of rocket experiments. In 2002, UNISEC (University Space Engineering Consortium) and HASTIC (Hokkaido Aerospace Science and Technology Incubation Center) took over the educational and R&D rocket activities respectively and the research group dissolved. In 2008, JAXA/ISAS and eleven universities formed "Hybrid Rocket Research Working Group" as a subcommittee of the Steering Committee for Space Engineering in ISAS. Their goal is to demonstrate technical feasibility of lowcost and high frequency launches of nano/micro satellites into sun-synchronous orbits. Hybrid rockets use a combination of solid and liquid propellants. Usually the fuel is in a solid phase. A serious problem of hybrid rockets is the low regression rate of the solid fuel. In single port hybrids the low regression rate below 1 mm/s causes large L/D exceeding a hundred and small fuel loading ratio falling below 0.3. Multi-port hybrids are a typical solution to solve this problem. However, this solution is not the mainstream in Japan. Another approach is to use high regression rate fuels. For example, a fuel regression rate of 4 mm/s decreases L/D to around 10 and increases the loading ratio to around 0.75. Liquefying fuels such as paraffins are strong candidates for high regression fuels and subject of active research in Japan too. Nakagawa et al. in Tokai University employed EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) to modify viscosity of paraffin based fuels and investigated the effect of viscosity on regression rates. Wada et al. in Akita University employed LTP (Low melting ThermoPlastic) as another candidate of liquefying fuels and demonstrated high regression rates comparable to paraffin fuels. Hori et al. in JAXA/ISAS employed glycidylazide-poly(ethylene glycol) (GAP-PEG) copolymers as high regression rate fuels and modified the combustion characteristics by changing the PEG mixing ratio. Regression rate improvement by changing internal ballistics is another stream of research. The author proposed a new fuel configuration named "CAMUI" in 1998. CAMUI comes from an abbreviation of "cascaded multistage impinging-jet" meaning the distinctive flow field. A CAMUI type fuel grain consists of several cylindrical fuel blocks with two ports in axial direction. The port alignment shifts 90 degrees with each other to make jets out of ports impinge on the upstream end face of the downstream fuel block, resulting in intense heat transfer to the fuel. Yuasa et al. in Tokyo Metropolitan University employed swirling injection method and improved regression rates more than three times higher. However, regression rate distribution along the axis is not uniform due to the decay of the swirl strength. Aso et al. in Kyushu University employed multi-swirl injection to solve this problem. Combinations of swirling injection and paraffin based fuel have been tried and some results show very high regression rates exceeding ten times of conventional one. High fuel regression rates by new fuel, new internal ballistics, or combination of them require faster fuel-oxidizer mixing to maintain combustion efficiency. Nakagawa et al. succeeded to improve combustion efficiency of a paraffin-based fuel from 77% to 96% by a baffle plate. Another effective approach some researchers are trying is to use an aft-chamber to increase residence time. Better understanding of the new flow fields is necessary to reveal basic mechanisms of regression enhancement. Yuasa et al. visualized the combustion field in a swirling injection type motor. Nakagawa et al. observed boundary layer combustion of wax-based fuels. To understand detailed flow structures in swirling flow type hybrids, Sawada et al. (Tohoku Univ.), Teramoto et al. (Univ. of Tokyo), Shimada et al. (ISAS), and Tsuboi et al. (Kyushu Inst. Tech.) are trying to simulate the flow field numerically. Main challenges are turbulent reaction, stiffness due to low Mach number flow, fuel regression model, and other non-steady phenomena. Oshima et al. in Hokkaido University simulated CAMUI type flow fields and discussed correspondence relation between regression distribution of a burning surface and the vortex structure over the surface.
