Transparent conductive oxide films have been widely used in the field of flat panel display (FPD). Transparent conductive Indium Zinc Oxide (IZO) thin films with excellent chemical stability have attracted much attention as an alternative material for Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) films. In this study, using $In_2O_3$ and ZnO powder mixture with a ratio of 90 : 10 wt% as a target, IZO films are prepared on polynorbornene (PNB) substrates by electron beam evaporation. The effect of thickness and $O_2$ introduction flow rate on the optical, electrical, structural properties and surface composition of deposited IZO films were investigated by UV/Visible spectrophotometer, 4-point probe method, SEM, XRD and XPS.

We investigate the flame behavior and spatial distribution of OH, PAHs and soot in a confined buoyant diffusion flame with decrease of the coflowing air flow rate. Direct photographs and Schlieren images represent that flame is Ally occupied by blue flame and becomes unstable, which is partially detached to the fuel nozzle tip in a near extinction flame under extremely reduced oxidizer condition. Laser induced fluorescence profiles clearly shows that OH is still generated in near-extinction flame, although intensity becomes weak with decreasing air flow rate. But soot scattering image cannot be seen any more in an oxidizer deficient ambience and simultaneously the PAHs are widely distributed downstream. These results are due to that a decrease of oxygen concentration in the combustion chamber leads to a temperature drop of flame, as a consequence, to a delay in soot growth and to a expanding of the PAHs, as soot precursors.

The experimental research was conducted to setup a performance prediction logic for the regenerative cooling system on a small scale liquid rocket engine using kerosene and LOX. Total heat flux of the combustion gas side was determined for the flow rate of the coolant, combustion pressure using the calorimeter thrust chamber. Based on the experimental investigation, a performance prediction scheme for the regenerative cooling system is setup in our own way. A performance prediction logic for the regenerative cooling system has been developed by the correction scheme of the combustion gas side. The key parameters determining the temperature limitation of the coolant are the mass flow rate of the coolant and the length of the combustion chamber and the nozzle. And the parameters to control the limitation of the usable wall temperature are the number of channels and wall thickness.

Sb doped SnO2(ATO: Antinomy doped Tin Oxide) thin films were prepared by a DC magnetron spttuering method using an oxide target and the electrical characteristics of ATO films were investigated. The experimen-tal conditions are as follows :Ar flow rate ; 0~100 sccm deposition tempera-ture ; 250~40$0^{\circ}C$ DC sputter powder ; 150~550W and sputteing pressure ; 2~7 mTorr, The thickness of depositied ATO films were 600$\AA$~1100 $\AA$ ranges. The resistivity of ATO films was decreased due to the increase of the crystallinity of ATO films with deposition temperature. The decrease of carrier concentration of films with the increase of oxygen flow rate and working pressure is responsible for the increase of resistivity. Increasing of sputtering power raised the resistivity of films by decreasing the carrier mobility.

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of four water temperatures (10, 15, 20, and $25^{\circ}C$) in combination with three photoperiods (24L:0D, 12L: 12D, and OL:24D) on the oxygen consumption rate of juvenile dark-banded rockfish, Sebastes inermis (mean body weight $20.5{\pm}0.7g$). The oxygen consumption rates of S. inermis were measured in triplicate for 24 hours using a continuous flow-through respirometer. Different combinations of water temperatures and photoperiods resulted in significant differences in the mean oxygen consumption rate of S. inermis (P<0.001). The oxygen consumption increased with increasing water temperatures for all photoperiod treatments (P<0.01). Mean oxygen consumption rates at 10, 15,20 and $25^{\circ}C$ ranged $178.3\sim283.5,\;386.7\sim530.7,\;529.2\sim754.3$ and $590.0\sim785.5mg\;O_2kg^{-1}h^{-1}$, respectively. $Q_{10}$ values ranged $3.17\sim5.51$ between 10 and $15^{\circ}C,\;1.87\sim2.10$ between 15 and $20^{\circ}C$ and $1.08\siml.24$ between 20 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. Fish held in continuous darkness (OL:24D) used consistently less okygen than fish exposed to continuous light (P<0.05). The mean oxygen consumption offish in a 12L:12D photoperiod was higher than that offish in 24L:0D and 0L:24D photoperiods under all temperature treatments except $10^{\circ}C$. The oxygen consumption of fish exposed to the 12L:12D photoperiod was significantly higher during the light phase than during the dark phase under all temperature treatments except $10^{\circ}C\;(P<0.05)$. This study provides empirical data for estimating oxygen consumption of S. inermis under given condition. This result has application for culture management and bioenergetic model for growth of this species.

An atmospheric surface modification using plasma treatment method was applied to butadiene rubber to improve its adhesion strength by plate type reactor. In order to investigate the optimum reaction condition of plasma treatment, type of reaction gas(nitrogen, argon, oxygen, air), gas flow rate(30~100 mL/min), treated time(0~30 s) and primer modification method(GMA, 2-HEMA) were examined in a plate type plasma reactor. The results of the surface modification with respect to the treatment procedure was characterized by using SEM and ATR-FTIR. As the gas flow rate and treated time increases the contact angle decreases. The greatest adhesion strength was achieved at optimum condition such as flow rate of 60 mL/min, treated time 5 s and modification primer containing 2-HEMA for air. Due to the atmospheric surface modification using plate plasma method consequently reduced the wettability of butadiene rubber and resulted in the improvement of the adhesion.

The bioreactor system for the large-scale plant tissue culture was developed to control the pH concentration and DO (dissolved oxygen), and air flowrate. The system controlling the proper air flow rate for each bulblet growth stage and monitoring the contamination of bioreactor using the pH change was controled by computer program. For the uniform bulblet distribution in bioreactor, the proper air flow rate was 300 cc/min at the beginning of bulblet culture, 400 cc/min after 20 days, 500 cc/min after 40 days, 600 cc/min after 60days, and 700 cc/min after 80 days. It was possible to maintain the pH concentration within 5.5$\pm$0.5 during the culture by control system of bioreactor.

Flow accelerated corrosion(FAC) of the carbon steel piping in pressurized water reactors(PWRs) has been major issue in nuclear industry. Severe accident at Surry Unit 2 in 1986 initiated the worldwide interest in this area. Major parameters influencing FAC are material composition, microstructure, water chemistry, and hydrodynamics. Qualitative behaviors of FAC have been well understood but quantitative data about FAC have not been published for proprietary reason. In order to minimize the FAC in PWRs, the optimal method is to control water chemistry factors. Chemistry factors influencing FAC such as pH, corrosion potential, and hydrazine contents were reviewed in this paper. FAC rate decreased with pH up to 10 because magnetite solubility decreased with pH. Corrosion potential is generally controlled dissolved oxygen (DO) and hydrazine in secondary water. DO increased corrosion potential. FAC rate decreased with DO by stabilizing magnetite at low DO concentration or by formation of hematite at high DO concentration. Even though hydrazine is generally used to remove DO, hydrazine itself thermally decomposed to ammonia, nitrogen, and hydrogen raising pH. Hydrazine could react with iron and increased FAC rate. Effect of hydrazine on FAC is rather complex and should be careful in FAC analysis. FAC could be managed by adequate combination of pH, corrosion potential, and hydrazine.

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effect of film cooling in the lab-scale liquid rocket engine using liquid oxygen(LOx) and Jet A-1(Jet engine fuel) as propellants. Film coolants(Jet A-1 and water) was injected through the film cooling injector. The outside wall temperature of the combustor and film cooled length were determined for chamber pressure, mixture ratio, and the different geometries(injection angle) with the percent film coolant flow rate. The loss of characteristic velocity was determined for the case of film cooling with water and Jet A-1. As chamber pressure increased, the outside wall temperature increased in the nozzle but unchanged over the 9 percent film coolant flow rate for the combustion chamber used in this study. Characteristic velocity wasn't affected with the mixture ratio over the 9 percent film coolant flow rate.

A MILD (Moderate and Intense Low oxygen Dilution) combustion, which is effective in the reduction of NOx, is considerably affected by the recirculation flow rate of hot exhaust gas to the combustion furnace. The present study used the MILD combustor, which has coaxial cylindrical tube. The outside tube of the MILD combustor corresponds to the exhaust gas passage and the inner side tube is the furnace passage. A numerical analysis was accomplished to elucidate the characteristics of exhaust gas entrainment toward the inner furnace with the changes of coanda nozzle geometrical parameters, nozzle passage gap length, nozzle passage length, nozzle angle and expansion length. The optimal configuration of coanda nozzle for the best entrainment flow rate was gap length, 0.5 mm, expansion angle, 4o and expansion length, 146 mm. The nozzle passage length was irrelevant to the exhaust gas entrainement.
