In this study, the economic evaluation for imported coals was conducted for power plant based on thermo-dynamical performance analysis. The number of coal types considered was 1,755 imported by five power generation companies in Korea during the 2010-2012. The higher heating value (HHV) of the coals ranged 4,000-6,500 kcal/kg, mostly sub-bituminous. The 1D thermo-dynamical performance modeling was performed for a 500 MWe standard power plant using PROATES code. It was founded that the low rank coals had negative effects on the plant efficiency mainly due to the increased heat loss by moisture, hydrogen and flue gas. Based on the performance analysis, the economic performance of the coals was evaluated. The apparent price of low-rank coals tended to be significantly lower than design coal; for example, the unit price of coal with a HHV of 4,000 kcal/kg was 57% of the reference coal having 6,080 kcal/kg. Considering the negative effects leading to a decrease in the thermal performance, heating value compensation, and increased parasite load, the corrected unit cost for the coal with 4,000 kcal/kg was 90.7% of the reference coal. Overall, the cost saving by imported coals was not high as expected.

Four thermo-tolerant lines of silkworm, Bombyx mori, (L.) viz., A HT, B HT (Chinese type) and F HT, G HT (Japanese type) were evolved by utilizing the breeding resource material (identified from initial screening at a temperature of 31 ${\pm} 1^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity 85 ${\pm}$ 5%) through conventional breeding. These tolerant lines were crossed with productive breeds and forty four hybrids were evaluated on eight economic traits by the Multiple Trait Evaluation Index Method. Ten hybrids were short-listed based on the average evaluation index value larger than 50 for eight economic traits studied. The identified ten hybrids recorded higher index values (＞ 50) for most of the traits studied. Single hybrid G ${\times}$ CSR12 indicated average index value larger than 50 for six traits viz., pupation number (58), cocoon weight (67), shell weight (65), average filament length (74), raw silk % (69), reelability % (51) except for shell ratio % (41). The standard deviation of the cocoons in the above hybrid was 8.41 in the hybrid cocoon length and width measurement. However, two selected hybrids viz., A ${\times}$ CSR5 and G ${\times}$ CSR13 recorded average index value larger than 50 for all the traits viz., pupation number (57, 60), cocoon weight (50, 54), shell weight (56, 57), shell ratio percentage (59, 53), average filament length (55, 60), raw silk percentage (63, 67) and reelability percentage (53, 53). The standard deviation of the cocoons in the two selected hybrids viz., A ${\times}$ CSR5 and G ${\times}$ CSR13 was 8.41 and 8.06 respectively in the cocoon length and width measurement.

High-speed crafts suffer from losing a huge amount of their machinery energy in the form of heat loss with the exhaust gases. This will surely increase the annual operating cost of this type of ships and an adverse effect on the environment. This paper introduces a suggestion that may contribute to overcoming such problems. It presents the possibility of reusing the energy lost by the ships' exhaust gases as heating source for an absorption air condition unit onboard high-speed crafts. As a numerical example; the proposed method was investigated at a high-speed craft operating in Red Sea between Egypt and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The results obtained are very satisfactory. It showed the possibility of providing the required ship's air condition cooling load during sailing and in port. Economically, this will reduce the annual ship's operating cost. Moreover, it will achieve a valuable reduction of ship's emissions.

Screening of fifteen bivoltine silkworm breeds of Bombyx mori Linn at a temperature of $31{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity of 85${\pm}$5% resulted in the identification of eight thermo-tolerant breeds. The survival and cocoon shell ratio of the tolerant breeds ranged from 72.7 to 78.7% and 20.0 to 20.1% respectively. The tolerant breeds comprised of four oval breeds and four dumb-bell breeds. Eight foundation crosses prepared by crossing the oval and dumb-bell parents among themselves were screened at a temperature of $31{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity of 85{\pm}5%. The performance of the foundation crosses on 11 economic characters were analysed by employing Multipie Trait Evaluation Index method. Four foundation crosses which scored average index value > 50 were selected as breeding parents and breeding initiated for the evolution of thermo-tolerant bivoltine silkworm breeds. The methodology and the results of the foundation crosses reared both at 31{\pm}1$^{\circ}C$ and at $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ temperatures, are discussed.

자동차 산업의 발달과 함께 환경오염 문제가 심각해지면서 연간 300,000톤 이상 발생하는 폐타이어의 재활용에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 폐타이어 재활용을 목적으로 40, 80, 140 mesh 크기의 폐타이어 분말을 선별한 후, 입도 분석을 통하여 크기를 확인하고 그 형상을 SEM을 통해 관찰하였다. 또한 각각의 폐타이어 분말을 Virgin PP와 혼합하고 Intermeshing Corotating Twin Screw Extruder를 이용하여 TPV를 제조하고 특성 분석을 하였다. 이 중 효과가 좋은 140 mesh의 폐타이어 분말과 Virgin PP, Waste PP, PP-g-MA 세 가지 종류의 매트릭스를 다양한 비율로 혼합하여 TPV를 제조한 후 UTM을 통한 인장강도, 연신율과 Izod impact로 충격강도 등을 측정하였고 TGA로 열안정성을 확인하였다. 또한 SEM을 통하여 폐타이어 분말의 분산정도 및 파단면을 확인하였다.

A conventional silica gel/water adsorption chiller has been analyzed numerically. A novel non-dimensional mathematical model has been presented to analyze the design effect of different components of an adsorption chiller. The design parameters of this system are characterized by the number of transfer unit, NTU, of different components and the inert material alpha number, ${\alpha}$of different components of the systems. Results show that condenser NTU$\sub$a/ has the most influential effect on the system performance, which is fellowed by absorber NTU$\sub$e/. It is also seen that coefficient of performance (COP) and non-dimensional specific cooling capacity increases with the increase of NTU$\sub$a/ and NTU$\sub$e/, but decreases with the increase of inert material alpha number. A thermo-economic data of the adsorption chiller and some other heat pump systems those are in practical operation are also presented.

The occurrence of detrimental substances in the paper machine leads to reduced economic performance of paper mills through reduced capacities due to increased paper breaks and cleaning times. In this article the latest generation of BASF's laser optical pitch particle counter is employed in the examination of a paper mill operating two paper machines and using a mixture of thermo-mechanical pulp and recycled fibres. The potential of the new instrument to differentiate between particles on the basis of size and chemical composition is discussed. In addition, direct evidence of the periodic and locational variation of detrimental substances in the paper machine is given. Finally, an example of the application of BASF's laser optical pitch particle counter in the selection of a suitable fixative system for a complex furnish is presented.

Seaweed aquaculture technologies have developed dramatically over the past 70 years mostly in Asia and more recently in Americas and Europe. However, there are still many challenges to overcome with respect to the science and to social acceptability. The challenges include the development of strains with thermo-tolerance, disease resistance, fast growth, high concentration of desired molecules, the reduction of fouling organisms and the development of more robust and cost efficient farm systems that can withstand storm events in offshore environments. It is also important to note that seaweed aquaculture provides ecosystem services, which improve conditions of the coastal waters for the benefit of other living organisms and the environment. The ecosystem services role of seaweed aquaculture and its economic value will also be quantitatively estimated in this review.

최근 지하철 시공 확대와 국토의 지형적인 특수성, 시공기술의 발달 등으로 인하여 장대터널이 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 터널 및 지하구조물에서 발생되는 화재는 지하공간이라는 폐쇄된 공간특성으로 인해 지상화재에 비해 많은 인명과 경제적 피해를 발생시킨다. 국내의 경우 터널 및 지하구조물에 대한 내화 연구가 진행 중이나 고온 시 콘크리트의 폭열 발생으로 인한 내하력 저하 및 안전성 평가에 대한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 시간가열 온도곡선(RABT 및 RWS)에 따른 콘크리트 내화 특성을 평가하고 실제 발생한 화재사례와 비교 검토하여 적용성을 제시하였다. 또한 유한요소 기반의 수치모델을 적용한 열-역학 연동해석을 실시하여 화재로 인한 지하구조물의 단면 손실 및 손상정도를 예측 평가하였다.

조산대에 분포하는 혼성암의 노출기작은 조산운동과 관련된 암석권의 열-역학적 진화에 대한 정보를 제공한다. 본 연구는 경기육괴 남서 연변부 홍성지역에 발달하는 돔 구조(viz., 오서산 돔)의 주 구성요소인 고생대 광천편마암의 노출기작에 대한 예비 연구로서, 광천편마암의 내부 그리고 주변에서 획득한 지질구조 요소의 운동학적 특성을 다룬다. 오서산 돔의 남측과 북서측 날개부를 이루는 광천편마암의 내부 지질구조는 상부가 바깥 방향으로 내려가는 정 이동감각의 전단운동 요소를 가진다. 이는 광천편마암 및 이를 포함하는 오서산 돔이 다이아퍼 형태로 상승하였음을 지시할 수 있다. 또한 광천편마암이 속한 지구조영역을 서쪽으로 구획하는 고변형대에서 역시 상부가 아래로 내려가는 정 이동감각의 전단운동 요소가 뚜렷하게 인지된다. 기존에 보고된 (열)연대학적 자료를 고려하면 광천편마암을 포함하는 오서산 돔의 노출시기와 고변형대의 운동 시기는 경기육괴가 후 충돌 작용들에 의해 영향을 받았던 후기 트라이아스기로 해석된다. 이는 광천편마암이 트라이아스기의 후 충돌 과정으로서 확장성 요소를 가지는 고변형대의 하반에서 다이어퍼 형태로 상승 및 노출되었음을 의미한다.
