It is possible for humans to breathe underwater using dissolved oxygen. However, unlike fish, humans need large amounts of oxygen to breathe underwater. Water generally contains small amounts of dissolved oxygen. To get enough dissolved oxygen from water, great volumes of it should be supplied into a separation device. If exhalation gases are used, the amounts of water supplied into the membrane can be decreased. However, the characteristics of exhalation gases after passage through the separation device need to be investigated. To reuse the exhalation gases, the concentration of carbon dioxide should be decreased. A compressor is needed to supply the exhalation gases because of the high pressure generated in the membrane inlet. However, compressors require a lot of power and are heavy, so it is not proper to get the portable separation device. A system without the compressor is needed. If the pressure of the position mixed from the exhalation is less than atmosphere, the compressor is not needed. In this thesis, characteristics of the gases which are mixed with exhalation gases and separated from water after passing the membrane are investigated. The compositions of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen are measured with the gas chromatography. The effects of water and exhalation gas flow rates on characteristics of gases separated from water after the membrane are showed.

This paper presents about an example of circuit design and characteristics of inverter according to the variable capacitance of the DC voltage source separation capacitor used in ZVS-HB type high frequency resonant inverter. The soft switching technology known as ZVS is used to reduce turn off loss at switching. In the event the capacitance of the DC voltage source separation capacitor is varied, the analysis of inverter circuit has generally described by using normalized parameter and operating characteristics have been evaluated in terms of switching frequency and parameters. According to the calculated characteristics value, a method of the circuit designs and operating characteristic of the inverter is also presented in this paper. In addition, this paper proves the validity of theoretical analysis through the experiment. This proposed inverter shows that it can be practically used in future as power source system for the lighting equipment of discharge lamp, DC-DC converter etc.

Experiments have demonstrated that the addition of a moderate amount of V to $Fe_{52}Co_{(20-x)}B_{20}Si_4Nb_4V_x$ amorphous alloy enhances the plasticity of the alloy. In particular, $Fe_{52}Co_{17.5}B_{20}Si_4Nb_4V_{2.5}$ alloy withstood a maximum of 8.3% strain prior to fracture along with a strength exceeding 4.7 GPa. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy conducted on the $Fe_{52}Co_{17.5}B_{20}Si_4Nb_4V_{2.5}$ alloy exhibited evidence of compositional modulation, indicating that nm-scale phase separation had occurred at local regions. In this study, the role played by nm-scale phase separation on the plasticity was investigated in terms of structural disordering and shear localization in order to better understand the structural origin of the enhanced plasticity shown by the developed alloy.

The superconducting magnetic separation system has been developing to separate the iron oxide scale from the feed water of the thermal power plant. The accumulation in the boiler lowers the heat exchange rate or in the worst case damages it. For this reason, in order to prevent scale generation, controlling pH and redox potential is employed. However, these methods are not sufficient and then the chemical cleaning is performed regularly. A superconducting magnetic separation system is investigated for removing iron oxide scale in a feed water system. Water supply conditions of the thermal power plant are as follows, flow rate 400 t / h, flow speed 0.2 m / s, pressure 2 MPa, temperature $160-200^{\circ}C$, amount of scale generation 50 - 120 t / 2 years. The main iron oxide scale is magnetite (ferromagnetic substance) and its particle size is several tens ${\mu}m$. As the first step we are considering to introduce the system to the chemical cleaning process of the thermal power plant instead of the thermal power plant itself. The current status of development will be reported.

The snow cornice mass on the formation zone had triggered avalanches which led to the loss of human life and property. Snow cornice is formed due to flow separation on the leeward side. Effect of lee slope is more prominent in the formation of snow cornices as compared to the windward slope. The analysis of wind flow pattern has been carried out to evaluate the performance of a jet roof. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis of wind flow over a 2D hill model was carried out using RNG based k-∈ turbulence models available in ANSYS Fluent. Effect of varying leeward hill slope (1:2 to 1:6) on flow separation for the given windward slope was observed and a critical slope of 1:4 was found at which the separation zone ceased to exist. The modification of wind flow over a hill due to the installation of jet roof was simulated. It was observed that jet roof had significantly modified the wind flow pattern around hill ridgeline and ultimately snow cornice formation had mitigated. The results of the wind flow pattern were validated with the wind data collected at the experimental site, Banihal Top (Jammu and Kashmir, India). The wind flow simulation over the hill and mitigation of cornice formation by the jet roof has been explained in the present paper.

The ¹³¹Cs radioisotope with a short half-life time and high average radiation energy can treat the cancer effectively in prostate brachytherapy. The typical ¹³¹Cs production processes have a separation step of the cesium from ¹³¹Ba to obtain a high specific radioactivity. Herein, we suggested a novel ¹³¹Cs separation method based on the Ba²⁺ adsorption of alginate beads. It is necessary to reduce the affinity of alginate beads to cesium ions for a high production yield. The carboxyl group of the alginate beads was replaced by a sulfonate group to reduce the cesium affinity while reinforcing their affinity to barium ions. The modified beads exhibited superior Ba²⁺ adsorption performances to native beads. In the fixed-bed column tests, the saturation time and adsorption capacity could be estimated with the Yoon-Nelson model in various injection flow rates and initial concentrations. In terms of the Cs elution, the modified alginate showed better performance (i.e., an elution over 88%) than the native alginate (i.e., an elution below 10%), indicating that the functional group modification was effective in reducing the affinity to cesium ions. Therefore, the separation of cesium from the barium using the modified alginate is expected to be an additional option to produce ¹³¹Cs.

역상 액체 크로마토그래피에서 다당유도체 선택자가 공유결합된 키랄 컬럼인 Chiralpak IB을 사용하여 N-FMOC $\alpha$-amino acid의 광학 이성질체의 분리를 수행하였다. 공유결합된 키랄 컬럼인 Chiralpak IB에서 여러 역상 이동상 조건들이 광학분할의 선택성과 분리인자, 머무름시간에 미치는 영향을 보여주었다. 또한 역상 액체 크로마토그래피에서 N-FMOC $\alpha$-amino acid의 광학 이성질체의 분리 결과를 순상 액체 크로마토그래피 결과와 비교하였는데 순상이동상을 사용한 것보다는 대체적으로 낮은 광학분할을 보여주었다.
