A multifunctional sensor is designed to measure viscosity, cleanness, temperature and capacitance of engine oil to make a clear decision on its condition. The simple structure helps easy fabrication and low cost while measuring four parameters by one sensor. The operation is described theoretically and is supported by experimental data. A fuzzy based algorithm to fuse the four kinds of data from multi-functional sensor in order to make a decision on the best time to change the oil is proposed.

For utilization of Bunker-C residual oil produced at KOCO., the auther tested the properties of vacuum fraction and blown asphalt, and as the result of it, (1) Vacuum fraction had so broad range of viscosity and high flash point that could be produced all kind of lublicating oil, but had to be dewaxed for high pour point, (2) Urea dewaxing was suitable to lighter fraction but not to heavier fraction, so, for heavier fraction, solvent dewaxing was needed. (3) Blown asphalt produced from vacuum residue had uniform relation between softening point and penetration in spite of broad change of blowing condition and adding of catalyst.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of wine and different meat bones added in brown sauce. Four kinds of brown sauce were prepared to find the changes of physiochemical characteristics, such as pH, $\alpha$-amylase activity, color, viscosity and microorganisms in brown sauce during storage at 4$\^{C}$. The pH of 4 kinds of brown sauce ranged from 5.0 to 5.6, and these pH ranges were stable during storage period. The activity of $\alpha$-amylase was the highest in the brown sauce made with wine and some of chicken bones and the sauces stored for 2 ∼ 6 days. The brown sauce made with wine and some of chicken bones had 35.5% of reducing sugar, which was the highest among 4 kinds of brown sauce, and had the darkest color. Also the brown sauce with wine and some of chicken bones shooed low values of L, a, b after storage and the lowest viscosity among 4 kinds of brown sauce. But they all tended to have higher viscosity during storage, especially two days after. The sauce made with wine and some of chicken bones showed the least change of viscosity and the addition of wine in the sauce appeared to inhibit the microbial growth.

In the present stud changes of some chemical and physical properties of a soybean oil, aerated at 120 ml/min through a porous gas distributor and oxidized at $45^{\circ}C{\sim}180^{\circ}C$, was investigated. The results of the study were as follows: The peroxide, thiobarbituric acid, and iodine value of the soybean oil which was aerated at 120 ml/min increased rapidly as oxidation temperature exceeded over $80^{\circ}C$. The acid value of the oil increased very rapidly as the oxidation temperature passed over $160^{\circ}C$. The content of the unsaturated fatty acid of the oil decreased considerably as the oxidation temperature exceeded over $80^{\circ}C$, whereas that of the saturated fatty acid did not change appreciably. This related well to the changes of the iodine value of the oil subjected to the same experimental conditions. The viscosity and refractive index of the oil increased rapidly as the oxidation temperature passed over $180^{\circ}C$. The following linear relationship hold for the viscosity and refractive index of the oil in the present study. $$V=Aexp({\frac{E}{RT}})$$ where V=viscosity(poise), A=constant, E=activation energy for viscous flow, R=gas constant, T=oxidation temperature$(^{\circ}K)$. The following relationship also hold for the viscosity and refractive index$({n^{20}}_D)$ of the oil at the present experimental conditions. $${n^{20}}_D=1.4614+7.333{\times}10^{-5}t+2.9612{\times}10^{-3}\;InV$$ where t=temperature$(^{\circ}C)$ at which the viscosity was measured.

The rheological properties and food functionality of the novel sugar derivatives, fructo-oligosaccharide, high maltose syrup(HMS), maltitol and sorbitol were examined and compared to those of sucrose. All samples tested showed Newtonian fluid property at the concentration range of 10% to the original concentrated products containing $69{\sim}81%w/w$ solid. HMS showed the highest viscosity. The viscosity increased(r=0.8038) as the average molecular weight of sugar derivatives were increased. The viscosity increased exponentially as the concentration increased, and sugar alcohols had lower value of the exponent compared to HMS and fructo-oligosaccharide. The viscosity of sugar derivatives solutions decreased by the increasing temperature following the Arrhenius equation. The flow activation energies of sorbitol and HMS were higer than that of sucrose. Substitution of sucrose with fructo-oligosaccharide in apple jam processing did not change the textural characteristics, but in redbean jelly(yanggaeng) it reduced the hardness, adhesiveness, springiness and cohesiveness. When sucrose was 100% replaced by HMS, the texture of apple jam and redbean jelly was not changed, but by mixing sucrose and HMS 1 : 1 ratio, the hardness decreased substantially The sugar alcohols reduced the hardness, adhesiveness, springiness of apple jam and redbean jelly significantly. Addition of fructo-oligosaccharide and HMS to sucrose did not influence the solidifying rate of candy, but sorbitol, even at 10% addition, retarded the candy moulding.

Thermoplastic starch (TPS) was prepared by mixing starch with glycerol as a plasticizer. The glycerol content ranged from 20 to 35 wt. % and TPS was prepared in a twin screw extruder. The shear viscosity, thermal and mechanical properties of the TPS were investigated. The viscosity of TPS exhibited typical shear thinning behavior: decreasing viscosity with increasing shear rate. The power index, n, increased with increasing glycerol content. This is because as the content of glycerol, a Newtonian fluid, increases, the viscosity behavior of the TPS becomes closer to that of a Newtonian fluid. The thermal behavior of TPS showed that starch and glycerol are miscible. In addition, when TPS was aged for more than one day at room temperature, TPS showed a partially miscible phase structure. The moisture absorbed into the TPS was assumed to change the phase behavior. The mechanical properties of TPS were found to be strongly dependent on the content of the plasticizer. Both the toughness and stiffness increased with increasing plasticizer content. DSC showed that this unusual result was due to the combined effect of humidity and the high amylose content in starch.

In this study, the stability of cream containing the ethyl acetate fraction of C. obtusa leaf extract was evaluated. The pH, viscosity, and absorbance were measured under the 4 different temperatures (4, 25, 37 and $45^{\circ}C$) and under the sun light during the 12 weeks. The control cream without containing the extract did not show pH change under the different temperatures mentioned above. However, the pH of the cream with the extract was decreased 0.11 at $4^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$. Under the $37^{\circ}C$, $45^{\circ}C$ and sun light condition, the pH was decreased 0.55, 0.84 and 0.59, respectively. After treating the cream for 12 weeks under the different temperatures, the viscosity was measured for the cream containing the extract and control cream. The values were decreased by 2,404 cPs in average compared to the initial value for the former and control cream were decreased by 1,296 cPs in average for the latter. On the other hand, the viscosity of control cream treated under the $45^{\circ}C$ for 12 weeks was decreased (1,915 cPs) relative to the cream containing the extract, which showed 3,810 cPs decrease in viscosity. The cream containing the extract did not show absorbance change at $4^{\circ}C{\sim}37^{\circ}C$ for 12 weeks. Instead, the absorbance of the cream treated under $45^{\circ}C$ and sun light condition was decreased 32.5 % and 35.2 %, respectively. This decrease in absorbance is relatively small compared to the 54.8 % decrease of the extract sampled from the cream using ethanol solution. This indicates that the extract is stabilized in the cream. In addition, any change in color or smell was not observed through 12 weeks of the experimental time period. Also physical changes as creaming and cohesion were not shown. The results show that the cream containing C. obtusa leaf extract was relatively stable. However, it is concluded that it is still not clear in the stability of the cream containing the extract when it is stored for a long time. Accordingly, it is suggested that further study is needed for the application of the extract to cosmetics.

The engine oil is an oil used for lubrication of various internal combustion engines. Recently, the vehicle and engine oil manufacture usually guarantee for oil change over 15000~20000 km mileage, but the most of driver usually change engine oil every 5000 km driving in Korea. In this case, it is possible to cause environmental contamination by used engine oil and increase the cost of driving by frequently oil change. In this study, we investigate the various physical properties such as flash point, pour point, kinematic viscosity, cold cranking simulator, total acid number, and four-ball test for fresh engine oil and used engine oil after vehicle driving (5000 km, 10000 km). The test result showed that the total acid number and wear scar by four-ball test of used engine oil had increased than fresh engine oil, but 2 kind of used oil (5000 km and 10000 km) had similar physical properties.

To develop a stirring device that can automatically measure the viscosity of a fluid, the impeller type of the device must be recognized without making contact. In this study, we propose a method to discriminate the type of impellers using the changes in the magnetic field. Permanent magnets are inserted into a hollow hole of the impellers, and the change of the magnetic field is measured by a hall sensor. All experimental results are compared with the FEM analysis results. The results show that with the increase in diameter and length of the magnet inserted into the impeller, the magnitude of the magnetic flux density increases. The magnetic field is more sensitive to the change in the magnet diameter than to the change in magnet length. In order to reduce the machining costs, however, it is advantageous to change the magnet length instead of the magnet diameter.

Introducing boric acid to the polyviny alcohol(PVA) solutions has a profound effect on the rheological properties through crosslinking between hydroxyl groups of PVA. This study investigates the effect of boric acid on the rheological properties of polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)/dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)/water systems in the absence of cations. The viscosity of PVA/ DMSO/water systems containing 1 wt.% boric acid was decreased with increasing water content. PVA/DMSO systems containing 1 wt.% boric acid exhibited rheological properties similar to elastic gels by forming crosslinked structures. On the other hand, PVA/water systems containing 1 wt.% boric acid exhibited rheological properties typical of viscous materials. In-corporation of boric acid into PVA/DMSO system caused a notable change in the viscosity of the system, whereas boric acid had little effect on the viscosity of PVA/water system. PVA/DMSO/boric acid system gave the greatest storage modulus among the PVA solution systems. Increasing water level in the mixed solvent of DMSO and water diminished the storage modulus of the systems.
