실험실에서 순환여과시스템으로 5-6개월 사육하던 넙치 치어에서 아가미의 심한 빈혈을 나타내는 질병이 발생하였다. 현미경관찰에서 아가미에서는 유충이, 입천정에서는 성숙한 성충이 관찰되었다. 성충의 체장은 5.60-9.32 mm이며 방추형 몸의 길이는 3.83-6.32 mm, 부착기는 방추형 몸에서 부터 연결된 isthmus의 끝부분에 꽃자루 모양으로 존재하였고 부착기의 끝에는 8개의 파악기가 있었다. 충의 형태학적 관찰로부터 단생류에 속하는 Neoheterobothirum hirame로 동정하였다. 감염어의 적혈구용적는 평균 10.3±2.8%로 정상 넙치의 31.4±4.2%보다 현저히 낮았다. 병리조직학적으로 N. hirame에 감염 된 넙치는 아가미 새판과 새엽을 흐르는 혈관내의 적혈구가 감소하고 비장의 적수(red pulp) 영역이 감소되고 간세포는 위축이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 넙치에 심한 빈혈을 일으킨 원인은 N. hirame인 것을 밝혔다. 이 연구는 순환여과식 사육시스템에서는 사육수의 교환이 적으므로 소독장치가 충분하지 못할 경우 병원체의 증식이 문제가 될 수 있는 예를 보이고 있다.

이 논문은 디젤엔진 자동차의 EGR 및 공기 제어와 CPF 장치에 관련된 고장사례 연구이다. 첫 번째 사례는 엔진진공펌프 손상으로 인해 엔진오일이 EGR 밸브 내부 다이어프램 손상으로 인해 오일이 흡기로 유입되어 연소실로 들어가 불완전 연소함으로써 배기할 때 매연이 발생된 것으로 확인되었다. 두 번째 사례의 원인은 공기제어 장치인 스로틀 플랩(throttle flap)을 점검하였을 때 스로틀 플랩이 고착되어 흡입공기량 부족에 의해 매연이 발생된 것을 확인하였다. 세 번째 사례는, 배기가스 온도센서의 불량으로 인해 온도를 감지하지 못해 재생기능이 되지 않아 매연이 발생된 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서, 배기가스발생으로 인한 환경오염 문제가 발생하지 않도록 최적의 상태를 유지하도록 관리하여야 한다.

본 연구는 실증규모의 반포화 순환식 인공습지에서 도로 강우유출수를 처리하여 습지의 성능분석, LID 기능 및 다른 LID-BMP 시설과의 처리효율을 비교하였다. 강우시 모니터링을 바탕으로 연구대상 습지의 저감효율을 산정한 결과 TSS 저감효율은 평균 92%, COD, TN, TP는 각각 평균 63%, 36%, 75%로 분석되었으며 다른 시설과 직접적인 비교는 불가능하지만 SA/CA 비율에 따른 오염물질 저감효율을 분석한 결과 연구대상 시설의 SA/CA 비율이 낮았음에도 불구하고 유사한 수준의 효율을 보였다. 또한, 전체 강우유출수의 18%만을 처리하여 약 70%의 오염물질을 저감할 수 있는 시설의 성능을 보였다. 연구대상 습지(합성섬유 충진)와 동일한 형태로 제작되어 직접적인 비교가 가능했던 유기성 여재를 충진한 습지와의 비교 결과 TSS, TP는 유사한 처리성능을 보였으며, COD는 유기성 여재에서 용출되는 유기물질의 영향으로 연구대상 습지에서 높은 효율을 보였으나 TN은 유기성 여재에서 자체 공급되는 유기탄소의 영향으로 유기성 여재를 충진한 습지에서 높은 효율을 나타내었다. 한편 초기 강우유출수 포착장치를 갖춘 본 연구대상 습지에서 그렇지 않은 침투도랑 습지의 성능을 비교분석한 결과 훨씬 안정적인 처리성능을 얻을 수 있었다.

A 25kW-class polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell system has been developed for the propulsion of a leisure boat. The fuel cell system was designed to satisfy various performance requirements, such as resistance to shock, stability under rolling and pitching oscillations, and durability under salinity condition, for its marine applications. Then, the major components including a 30kW-class PEM fuel cell stack, a DC-DC converter, a seawater cooling system, secondary battery packs, and balance of plants were developed for the fuel cell system. The PEM fuel cell stack employs a unique design structure called an anodic cascade-type stack design in which the anodic cells are divided into several blocks to maximize the fuel utilization without hydrogen recirculation devices. The performance evaluation results showed that the stack generated a maximum power of 31.0kW while maintaining a higher fuel utilization of 99.5% and an electrical efficiency of 56.1%. Combining the 30-kW stack with other components, the 25kW-class fuel cell system boat was fabricated for a leisure. As a result of testing, the fuel cell system reached an electrical efficiency of 48.0% at the maximum power of 25.6kW with stable operability. In the near future, two PEM fuel cell systems will be installed in a 20-m long leisure boat to supply electrical power up to 50kW for propelling the boat and for powering the auxiliary equipments.

Unlike many laboratory-scale studies on absorption of organic compounds (VOCs), limited pilot-scale studies have been reported. Accordingly, the present study was carried out to examine operation parameters for the effective control of a hydrophilic VOC (methyl ethyl ketone, MEK) by applying a circular pilot-scale packed-absorption system (inside diameter 37 cm ${\times}$ height 167 cm). The absorption efficiencies of MEK were investigated for three major operation parameters: input concentration, water flow rate, and ratio of gas flow-rate to washing water amount (water-to-gas ratio). The experimental set-up comprised of the flow control system, generation system, recirculation system, packed-absorption system, and outlet system. For three MEK input concentrations (300, 350, and 750 ppm), absorption efficiencies approached near 95% and then, decreased gradually as the operation time increased, thereby suggesting a non-steady state condition. Under these conditions, higher absorption efficiencies were shown for lower input concentration conditions, which were consistent with those of laboratory-scale studies. However, a steady state condition occurred for two input concentration conditions (100 and 200 ppm), and the difference in absorption efficiencies between these two conditions were insignificant. As supported by an established gas-liquid absorption theory, a higher water flow rate exhibited a greater absorption efficiency. Moreover, as same with the laboratory-scale studies, the absorption efficiencies increased as water-to-gas ratios increased. Meanwhile, regardless of water flow rates or water-to-gas ratios, as the operation time of the absorption became longer, the pH of water increased, but the elevation extent was not substantial (maximum pH difference, 1.1).

The effects of recirculated exhaust gas on the characteristics of ;$NO_x$ and soot emissions under a wide range of engine load have been experimentally investigated by a water-cooled, four-cylinder, indirect injection, four cycle and marine diesel engine operating at two kinds of engine speeds. The purpose of the present study is to develop the EGR control system for reducing $NO_x$ and soot emissions simultaneously in diesel engines. The EGR system is used to reduce NOx emissions, and a novel diesel soot removal apparatus with a cylinder-type scrubber for the experiment system which has 6 water injectors(A water injector is made up 144 nozzles with 1.0mm in diameter) is specially designed and manufactured to reduce the soot contents in the recirculated exhaust gas to intake system of the engines. The intake oxygen concentration obtained by the intake air flow and the oxygen concentration in the recirculated exhaust gas, and the exhaust oxygen concentration measured in exhaust manifold are used to analyse and discuss the influences of EGR on NOx and soot emissions. The experiments are performed at the fixed fuel injection timing of $15.3^{\circ}$ BTDC regardless of experimental conditions. It is found that $NO_x$ emissions decrease and soot emissions increase owing to the drop of intake oxygen concentration and exhaust oxygen concentration as EGR rate rises. Also, one can conclude that it is sufficient for the scrubber EGR system with a novel diesel soot removal apparatus to reduce $NO_x$ emissions, but not to reduce soot emissions.

The objective of the present study is to visualize the steady and pulsatile flow fields in a branching model by using a high-resolution PIV system. A bifurcated flow system was built for the experiments in the steady and pulsatile flows. Harvard pulsatile pump was used to generate the pulsatile velocity waveforms. Conifer powder as the tracing particles was added to water to visualize the flow fields. CCD cameras($1K{\times}1K$(high resolution camera) and $640{\times}480$(low resolution camera)) captured two consecutive particle images at once for the image processing of several cross sections on the flow system. The range validation method and the area interpolation method were used to obtain the final velocity vectors with high accuracy. The results of the image processing clearly showed the recirculation zones and the formation of the paired secondary flows from the distal to the apex of the branch flow in the bifurcated model. The results also indicated that the particle velocities at the inner wall moved faster than the velocities at the outer wall due to the inertial force effects and the helical motions generated in the branch flows as the flow proceeded toward the outer wall. Even though the PIV images from the high resolution camera were closer to the simulation results than the images from the low resolution camera at some locations, both results of the PIV experiments from the two cameras generally agreed quite well with the results from the computer simulations. Therefore, instead of using the expensive stereoscopic PIV or 3D PIV system, the three-dimensional flow fields in a bifurcated model could be easily and exactly investigated by this study.

The intake oxygen concentration and the mean equivalence ratio calculated by the intake air flow and fuel consumption rate, and the exhaust oxygen concentration measured are used to analyse and discuss the influences of EGR rate on $NO_x$ and soot emissions. The experiments are performed at the fixed fuel injection timing of $15.3^{\circ}$ BTDC regardless of experimental conditions. It is found that $NO_x$ emissions are decreased and soot emissions are increased owing to the drop of intake oxygen concentration and exhaust oxygen concentration, and the rise of equivalence ratio as the EGR rate rises.

An ejector is a machine utilized for mixing fluid, maintaining a vacuum, and transporting fluid. The Ejector enhances system efficiency, are easily operated, have a mechnically simple structure, and do not require a power supply. Because of these advantages, the ejector has been applied to a variety of industrial fields such as refrigerators, power plants and oil plants. In this work, an ejector was used to safely recycle anode tail gas in a 5 kW Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell system at KEPRI(Korea Electric Power Research Institute). In this system, the ejector is placed at mixing point between the anode tail gas and the cathode tail gas or the fresh air. Commercial ejectors are not designed for the actual operating conditions for our fuel cell system. A new ejector was therefore designed for use beyond conventional operating limits. In this study, the entrainment ratio is measured according to the diametrical ratio of nozzle to throat in the designed ejector. This helps to define important criteria of ejectors for MCFC recycling.
