  • In this study, a tracer gas technique was used to measure ventilation effectiveness in a thermal environmental chamber simulating an under-floor air conditioning system. A tracer gas of $SF_6$ was injected in a supply duct using step-up and step-down methods. Local mean ages and room mean ages were calculated from the measured concentrations under isothermal and cooling conditions with and without diffusers. Ventilation effectiveness is found to be higher in cooling ventilation operations than in isothermal operations. Results also show that ventilation effectiveness is not significantly affected by a diffuser.

  • The introduction of tracer gas techniques to ventilation studies in indoor environments provides valuable information that used to be unattainable from conventional testing environments. Data acquisition systems (DASs) containing analogue-to-digital (A/D) converters are usually used to function the key role that records signals to storage in digital format. In the testing process, there exist a number of components in the measuring equipment which may produce system-based inference to the monitored results. These unwanted fluctuations may cause significant error in data analysis, especially when non-linear algorithms are involved. In this study, a pre-processor is developed and applied to separate the unwanted fluctuations (noise or interference) in raw measurements and to reduce the uncertainty in the measurement. Moving average, notch filter, FIR (Finite Impulse Response) filters, and IIR (Infinite Impulse Response) filters are designed and applied to collect the desired information from the raw measurements. Tracer gas concentrations are monitored during leakage and ventilation tests in the model test room. The signal analysis functions are introduced to carry out the digital signal processing (DSP) work. Overall the FIR filters process the $CO_2$ measurement properly for ventilation rate and mean age of air calculations. It is found that, the Kaiser filter was the most applicable digital filter for pre-processing the tracer gas measurements. Although the IIR filters help to reduce the random noise in the data, they cause considerable changes to the filtered data, which is not desirable.

  • Subsurface biobarrier technology has potential applications to contain contaminated groundwater and/or to degrade toxic pollutants in groundwater. Effective biobarrier formation is need to assess of hydrogeologic characteristics and to conduct practical operation strategies and design based on this prior to design biobarrier. Thus, in this study, we examined hydrogeologic characteristics in biobarrier construction site. Hydraulic conductivities which calculated from slug test data have shown difference with each well as 1.20$\times$10$^{-3}$ -6.00$\times$10$^{-5}$ cm/sec. Tracer test is a method in which concentration of tracer solution during withdrawal in each well by vacuum extraction system is measured with time. Tracer solution was continuously injected by constant head tank. Measured tracer concentration versus time data were fitted to analytical solution of convection dispersion equation (CDE). The fitting data of CDE to the measured data at each extraction well yielded were 0.61cm/min(pore velocity), 5.38$\textrm{cm}^2$/min(dispersion coefficient) for discharge rate of 0.47 1/min and 1.75cm/min(pore velocity), 36.34$\textrm{cm}^2$/min(dispersion coefficient) for discharge rate of 0.93 1/min. As a result, we acquired fundamental parameters which need to design biobarrier and operation strategies.

  • Photovoltaic(PV) power generation system [1-2] has been extensively studied and watched with keen interest as a clean and renewable power source. So hardware and software studies strongly indicate the feasibility of commercially producing a low cost, user-friendly solar cell curve tracer. Generally, V-I curve tracer indicates only the commonly used solar cell parameters. However, with the conventional V-I curve tracer it is almost impossible to abstract the more detail parameters of solar cell ; A, Rs, and Rsh, which satisfies the user, who aims at the analysis of the development PV power generation system; advanced simulation. In this paper, the proposed method gives us the satisfactory results to abstract the detail parameters of solar cell ; A, Rs, and Rsh

  • 최근에 형광물질을 이용한 추적자 시험이 빈번해지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 형광물질 추적자 시험시 농도측정 방법으로서 입상 활성탄을 이용하는 방법의 적용가능성을 실내 및 현장실험을 통해 평가하였다. 실내실험 결과 로다민 WT 및 우라닌 개별용액의 경우 활성탄 흡착 농도는 실제 표준농도와는 일부 차이가 있지만 각 표준농도와 선형성은 매우 뛰어난 것으로 나타났다. 또한 $10{\mu}g/L$ 이상의 형광물질 농도에서는 활성탄의 적용성이 뛰어났다. 한편 두 형광물질을 혼합한 경우에는 간섭의 영향으로 활성탄 적용성이 떨어졌다. 실제 현장에서 활성탄을 이용하여 추적자 시험을 한 결과, 통상적으로 수행하는 직접적인 물시료 채취분석법과 비교하였을 때 활성탄을 이용한 흡착방법도 충분히 현장 적용성이 있으며 저농도에서는 습식 그리고 고농도에서는 건식으로 분석한다면 보다 정확한 형광물질 농도측정이 되는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 오염물질 확산 평가 등이 목적이 아니라 추적자 물질의 도달확인(즉 수리적 연결성 진단)이 주요 목적이고 추적자시험의 예상 소요기간이 길다면 활성탄을 활용한 방법은 매우 비용경제적일 것으로 사료된다.

  • 미국에서 발생한 9.11 테러 이후 물류보안(Supply Chain Security)에 대한 패러다임이 발생하였으며, 국외의 관련 기업과 기관들은 물류보안을 위하여 다양한 연구들을 진행하였다. 하지만 국내의 경우 물류보안이라는 용어 자체가 생소할 뿐만 아니라 보안에 관한 패러다임이 물류부분까지 확산되지가 않아서 관련 연구가 부족한 실정이었으나, 최근에 물류보안 기술 중의 하나로서 RFID 기반 컨테이너 화물 안전수송 장비인 ConTracer(Container Tracer)를 개발하는 등 관련 연구가 활성화되기 시작하였다. 현재 개발되고 있는 컨테이너 화물 안전수송 장비들의 주요 이슈는 높은 인식률과 충분한 인식거리가 확보되는 것이며, 본 연구에서는 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위하여 다구찌 방법론을 활용하여 ConTracer(433MHz 타입, 2.4GHz 타입)의 인식률 향상을 위한 다양한 실험을 하였다. 실험결과 433MHz 주파수에서는 리더기의 방향을 전방우측으로 향하는 것이 다소 유리하고, 2.4GHz 주파수에서는 크게 영향을 미치지는 못하는 것으로 나타났으며, 안테나의 위치는 예상했던 대로 두 주파수 모두 외부에 설치하는 것이 인식률 향상에 유리한 것으로 분석되었다.

  • This paper presents an experimental study for understanding the indoor air quality in a room. A model room, which had a ceiling-mounted supply and a sidewall-mounted exhaust, was used to examine the effect of air exchange rate (AER) and contaminant source location (CSL) as a function of the elapsed time. A tracer gas method, using carbon monoxide tracer, gas analyzers, and a data acquisition system, was applied to study the ventilation air distribution and the tracer removal efficiency, so-called pollutant removal efficiency, in the model room. The experiment was composed of two parts; firstly the AER was varied to examine its effect on the ventilation air distribution and the ventilation effectiveness and secondly both AER and CSL were considered to determine their effect on the pollutant removal efficiency. It was found that the ventilation effectiveness in the model was proportional to AER but not linearly. It was also found that changing the CSL can improve the pollutant removal efficiency. In some cases, the efficiency improvement by increasing AER was achieved by simply changing CSL.

  • It is clinically important to determine the physiologic mandibular position as the therapeutic position of the patients who needs the oral rehabilitation and occlusal treatment. Several methods have been employed for the recording the mandibular position. The gothic arch tracer is one of methods to record the mandibular position. The purpose of this study is to record the border position, chewing position, and myocentric position using the newly developed intra oral tracer in 10 subjects with TMJ clicking sound and 10 subjects without TMJ clinking sound.. This study showed that newly developed intra oral tracer allowed clinician the determination of the treatment position on the same horizontal plate which can be used in the full mouth rehabilitation and occlusal treatments. There was no statistically significant difference between clicking group and nonclicking group in the distance of border position-chewing position and the distance of border position-myocentric centric position.

  • In this study, we performed RTD measurement at the die exit of co-rotating twin-screw extruder using a non-destructive ultrasonic device. The ultrasonic device was attached at slit die and was composed of a steel buffer rod and 10 MHz longitudinal piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer. This in-line ultrasonic monitoring method is based on the ultrasonic response of $CaCO_3$ filled in polymer. The RTD is evaluated by variation of ultrasonic attenuation with time caused by change of the tracer concentration during extrusion. The ultrasonic tracer, pellet type of compounded $CaCO_3$ in polymer was used in this study. The effects of tracer concentration on RTD and flow patterns were studied. Evaluation for the residence functions at different screw speeds, feeding rates and screw configurations were also carried out.
