Purpose: Although ionization chambers are widely used to measure beam commissioning data, point-by-point measurements of all the profiles with various field size and depths are time-consuming tasks. As an alternative, we investigated the feasibility of a linear diode array for commissioning a treatment planning system. Methods: The beam data of a Varian TrueBeam^® radiotherapy system at 6 and 10 MV with/without a flattening filter were measured for commissioning of an Eclipse Analytical Anisotropic Algorithm (AAA) ver.15.6. All of the necessary beam data were measured using an IBA CC13 ionization chamber and validated against Varian "Golden Beam" data. After validation, the measured CC13 profiles were used for commissioning the Eclipse AAA (AAA_CC13). In addition, an IBA LDA-99SC linear diode array detector was used to measure all of the beam profiles and for commissioning a separate model (AAA_LDA99). Finally, the AAA_CC13 and AAA_LDA99 dose calculations for each of the 10 clinical plans were compared. Results: The agreement of the CC13 profiles with the Varian Golden Beam data was confirmed within 1% except in the penumbral region, where ≤2% of a discrepancy related to machine-specific jaw calibration was observed. Since the volume was larger for the CC13 chamber than for the LDA-99SC chamber, the penumbra widths were larger in the CC13 profiles, resulting in ≤5% differences. However, after beam modeling, the penumbral widths agreed within 0.1 mm. Finally the AAA_LDA99 and AAA_CC13 dose distributions agreed within 1% for all voxels inside the body for the 10 clinical plans. Conclusions: In conclusion, the LDA-99SC diode array detector was found to be accurate and efficient for measuring photon beam profiles to commission treatment planning systems.

Korea is currently developing country-specific emission factors to support the 2050 zero-carbon campaign. Dairy cattle represent one of the largest livestock industries in Korea, and the industry is estimated to continue increasing because of an increase in milk demand. However, country-specific emission factors for dairy cattle are currently only available for calculating methane (CH₄) emissions from enteric fermentation. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate CH₄ and nitrous oxide (N₂O) fluxes from sawdust-bedded barn in dairy cow and steer, as well as dairy cattle manure composting lots. The greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes were quantified using the open-chamber method and gas chromatography. CH₄ fluxes from steer, dairy cow, and manure compost were 27.88 ± 5.84, 36.12 ± 10.85, and 259.44 ± 61.78 ㎍/head/s, respectively. N₂O fluxes from steer, dairy cow, and manure compost were 14.04 ± 1.27, 4.11 ± 1.57, and 3.97 ± 1.08 ㎍/head/s, respectively. The result of this study can be used to construct country-specific data for GHG emissions from manure management. Thus, the application of mitigation strategies can be prioritized based on the GHG profile and targeted source.

실내 거주 시간이 늘어나면서 발생하는 CO₂를 인체에 무해한 농도인 1,000 ppmCO₂ 이하로 유지하기 위해 연구들이 활발히 진행 중이다. 본 연구에서는 저농도 CO₂흡착제로서 KOH와 K₂CO₃와 같은 알칼리성 첨가제를 상용 활성탄에 함침하여 사용하였다. 흡착된 CO₂ 양은열중량분석기(TGA)와 chamber(CO₂ IR analyzer)로평가하였다. 비표면적이 928.5 m²/g인 상용 활성탄(AC)은 KOH가 함침 된 KOH/AC(13.6 m²/g)와 K₂CO₃가 함침 된 K₂CO₃/AC(288.8 m²/g)보다 비표면적이 높았다. 챔버실험결과, AC는 CO₂를 거의 흡착하지 않았지만, KOH/AC와 K₂CO₃/AC는 각각 93.5 mg_CO2/g_sample 및 94.5 mg_CO2/g_sample 흡착하였다. 이것은 비표면적 및 미세기공의 부피에 의한 물리적인 흡착 영향보다 알칼리성 활성점의 증가가 CO₂ 흡착에 더 유리하게 작용한 것으로 판단된다. KOH/AC와 K₂CO₃/AC의 재생성능은 chamber test 결과 대조군(K₂CO₃/Al+Si supports)과 비교했을 때 안정적으로 흡착 성능을 유지하는 것으로 나타났다(3회 반복 실험). 또한, KOH/AC와 K₂CO₃/AC는열중량분석기의절대습도 1%H₂O를고려한조건에서 145.7 mg_CO2/g_sample및 150 mg_CO2/g_sample로 나타났다. 따라서 KOH 및 K₂CO₃ 등과 같은 알칼리 성분의 함침은 상용 활성탄의 안정적인 흡착 및 재생 후 흡착성능을 나타내어, 실내 이산화탄소 저감을 위한 흡착제 개발에 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study realizes the conceptual method to predict combustion instability in actual full-scale combustion chamber of rocket engines by experimental tests with model (sub-scale) chamber. The model chamber was designed based on the methodologies proposed in the previous work regarding geometrical dimensions and operating conditions, and hot-fire test procedures were followed to obtain stability boundaries. From the experimental tests, two instability regions are presented by the parameters of combustion-chamber pressure and mixture (oxidizer/fuel) ratio, which are customary for combustor designers. It is found that instability characteristics in the chamber with the adopted jet injectors can be explained by the correlation between the characteristic burning or mixing time and the characteristic acoustic time: In each instability region, dynamic behaviors of flames are investigated to verify the hydrodynamically-derived characteristic lengths of the jet injectors. Large-amplitude pressure oscillation observed in upper instability region is found to be generated by lifted-off flames.

In the early of Joseon Dynasty, Royal Tomb developed from stone chamber tomb to lime chamber tomb through precedents. The lime chamber tomb consists of main-chamber(JeongGwang) and sub-chamber(ToeGwang). This separation makes character to construct tumulus of the Royal Tomb half and half. By this character, the Royal Tomb are not constructed by separate structure but constructed by coadjustment. The underground structure and tumulus of the Royal Tomb affect each other in the size and method of construction. The selecting type of Royal Tomb is generally made decision through terrain and politics. This study prove the architectural structure is also one of the major cause the that select type of Royal Tomb.

Since airborne viruses have been known to aggravate indoor air quality, studies on the development of anti-viral air filter increase recently. In this study, the pressure drop and anti-viral efficiency of TiO₂ coated ceramic ball filter were evaluated. After the filter being inserted into a commercial room air cleaner, chamber test with aerosolized bacteriophage MS2 was performed. The porosity of TiO₂ coated ceramic ball filter was 0.85, and pressure drop was about 13 Pa for 1 m/s of air velocity. The anti-viral efficiency was about 93% when the reaction time was 25 minutes in a 1 ㎥ chamber.

In this work, an ultra-high vacuum activated reactive evaporation equipment was built. With reaction of Al and oxygen plasma, $Al_2O_3$ was deposited on the surface of etched Al foil. The chamber was evacuated down to $2{\times}10^{-7}$ torr initially. The Ar and $O_2$ gas introduced into the chamber to maintain $5{\times}10^{-5}$ torr during deposition. Ar gas prevents recombining of the ionized oxygen. Evaporation was maintained by electron beam evaporator continuously. Heating filament and electrode were used in order to generate plasma. The substrate bias of -300V was introduced to accelerate deposition of evaporated Al atoms. The composition and morphology of deposited $Al_2O_3$ films were analyzed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), respectively. The Al oxide was formed on the surface of etched Al foil. According to AFM results, the surface morphology of $Al_2O_3$ film indicates uniform feature. Dielectric characteristic was measured as a function of frequency. Measured withstanding voltage and capacitance were 52V and $24{\mu}F/cm^2$, respectively. The obtained $Al_2O_3$ film shows clean condition without contaminants, which could be adapted to capacitor production.

본 연구는 제주특산식물인 좀향유의 현지 내･외 보존을 위한 기초 연구로서 증식체계를 마련하고 전처리제 처리에 따른 발근 특성과 시비에 따른 유묘의 생장 효과를 등을 알아보았다. 온실과 밀폐상의 온습도 조사결과 평균 온도는 비슷하였으나 공중 습도는 온실보다 밀폐상이 높은 습도를 유지하였으며, 좀향유 삽목 후 온실은 10일, 밀폐상은 7일만에 최초 발근을 확인하여 밀폐상의 빠른 발근율을 보였으며 온실과 밀폐상에서의 생존율, 발근율, 뿌리수 등은 근소하게 밀폐상이 높게 조사되어 온실보다 밀폐상이 효과적이었다. 발근억제물질 제거를 위한 전처리제 처리는 AgNO₃ 77.5%를 제외한 다른 처리구에서 95% 이상의 높은 발근율로 조사되어 좀향유의 경우 발근억제 물질은 적은 것으로 판단된다. 유묘의 용기별 질소 시비량 및 Osmocote 시비시험 결과 시비량과 용기의 조건에 따라 생존율과 생장 등에 차이를 보였다. 배양판에서 완효성 비료인 Osmocote를 시비한 결과 생존율, 지상부, 지하부 생장 등이 가장 양호하여 좀향유의 유묘 증식을 위해서는 Osmocote 시비가 바람직 할 것으로 판단된다.

70 N급 액체로켓엔진 개발모델의 추력실 최적설계형상 도출을 위한 지상연소시험을 수행하였다. 단일추진제급(순도: ${\geq}98.5%$) 하이드라진이 연소시험용 추진제로 선정되었고, 특성길이($L^*$) 2.79, 2.95, 그리고 3.13 m를 갖는 추력실에 대한 성능평가가 수행되었다. 시험조건 내에서의 촉매대 $L^*$ 증가는 추력기의 성능저하를 야기하는 것이 관찰되었으며, 개발모델의 펄스응답 성능이 현재 상용화되어 있는 하이드라진 추력기와 비교하여 우수한 것이 확인되었다.
