Generally, high performance concrete has characteristics such as low water-cementitous material ratio, lots of unit binder powder, thus the drying shrinkage and autogenous shrinkage are tend to be increased. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the glyclos based shrinkage reducing agent on the drying shrinkage and autogenous shrinkage of high performance concrete with 30% of water-cemetitious material ratio as a study to develop the technology to reduce the concrete shrinkage. Test results show that the drying and autogenous shrinkage of high performance concrete are reduced by about 20~35% at the mixing ratio of shrinkage reducing agent of 0.5%, and 1.0%, compared with plain concrete. Therefore, it analyze that the using of shrinkage reducing agent is effective to reduce the drying shrinkage and autogenous shrinkage of high performance concrete.

In this study, we analyzed the desulfurization performance of Zn-based dry sorbents according to the reducing power, water vapor content and $H_2S$ inlet concentration of coal gas in a batch-type fluidized-bed reactor. We used three different coal gas composition with different reducing power such as KRW air-blown coal gas, Shell oxygenblown coal gas and IAE coal gas. The experiments were performed by changing the inlet concentration of water vapor and $H_2S$ in a coal gas. Water vapor content was varied from 5% to 30% and $H_2S$ inlet concentration from 0.5% to 2.0%. As both the water vapor content and $H_2S$ inlet concentration increased, desulfurization performance of Zn-based sorbents decreased regardless of the reducing power of the coal gas. The minimum desuflurization performance was, however, above 99.5% for all experimental conditions, which implied that Zn-based dry sorbents could be used to remove $H_2S$ up to 99%.

The aim of the research is, for normal strength range concrete mixture, to evaluate the fluidity development and robustness of the mixture depending on various water reducers. Although a usage of water reducer has been essential to make a concrete under the current conditions of worsen aggregate quality, selection of appropriate performance of water reducer is significant. Hence, in this research, regarding the normal strength range mortar, three different performance of water reducers were evaluated in aspects of securing fluidity, and robustness, rheological behaviors. Additionally, for the concrete mixture, the fluidity change was evaluated depending on unit water content for each different water reducer, and the water reducing performance with manufacturing cost was compared and analyzed. By the result of this research, it is expected to provide a case of determining appropriate kind of water reducer and to contribute on conditions of securing sufficient fluidity with stable quality and economical advantage.

This study aims at development and application of a facility that is capable of reducing pollution in water quality by reducing nonpoint source pollutants (NPSP). NPSP originated from the initial rainfall caused not only large catchment of urban area pass a river but also small watershed pass a stream. For this purpose, the performance tests carried out with the field models from the facility based on the preceding study. And the tests induced reduction efficiency of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen (T-N) and suspended solid (SS), respectively. The average reduction efficiency obtained by time interval, and the result showed an excellent reduction performance. As a result, the facility satisfied reduction efficiency of NPSP of the proposed standard by the National Institute of Environmental Research, and thus it can be used in practical applications.

Many research works have been carried out to investigate the factors governing the performance of diesel engine. The area of the study has been focused on reducing both of NOx and smoke because of many difficulties to reduce them simultaneously in diesel engines. One of the efforts is an application of EGR technology to reduce NOx emission, which is very effective, but increases other emissions and makes fuel economy worse. In order to solve the problem, EGR is employed with water emulsified fuel and tested in this paper. Emulsified fuel is produced by centrifugal mixer and the amount of water is controlled by water injector and pulse generator, and EGR rate is controlled with 6-step control valve. The chamber pressure, fuel consumption and emissions are measured with various values of both EGR and water mixing rate, The results show that NOx emission is reduced much rather and smoke is also reduced simultaneously.

Numerical studies were performed to investigate an effective water cooling type for reducing the thermal load of deflector in test facility with two cooling types and various mass flow rate conditions. According to analyses a core water injection type was superior to a side water injection fro the viewpoint of reducing the thermal load of deflector.

In general, an absorption chiller or heat pump is operated under the constant cooling water flow rate condition even though the system works with a partial load. The objective of this paper is to study the effect of the cooling water flow rates and the temperature of cooling water on the system performance to find the energy saving methode for the partial load operation of the double effect $H_2O$/LiBr absorption chiller. It is found that the performance of the system is sensitive to the temperature of cooling water than the cooling water flow rate, so the decrease of the performance due to reducing the cooling water flow rate can be overcome with the reduction of the cooling water temperature by 1$^{\circ}C$. The flow rate of the cooling water flow rate ranges from 50％ to 100％ of the flow rate at normal conditions with a partial load. It is also found that the operation cost of the cooling water pump and the cooling tower can be reduced by 23％.

In this study, binary blended concrete mix with fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag was prepared according to 3 level of water reduction performance of chemical admixture (0%, 8% and 16%) and 3 level of water-cement ratio (40%, 45% and 50%) for evaluation of quality properties of binary blended concrete according to performance of chemical admixture. concrete mix was carried out repetition test of three times in order to secure the reliability. As a result, compressive strength according to performance of chemical admixture was found that difference of strength was about 20% occurred, chemical admixture was showed that a great influence on qualities of concrete. In addition, reflected the effect of performance of chemiacal admixture, prediction model equations for concrete compressive strength was proposed, it was found that more than 85% of the high correlation.

Generally, high performance concrete has characteristics such as low water-cementitious material ratio, lots of unit binder powder, thus the heat of hydration, autogenous shrinkage are tend to be increased. This study is to investigated the effect of the expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent on the shrinkage properties of high performance concrete as a study to develop the reduction technology of the concrete shrinkage. Test results showed that the expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent were effective the reduction of shrinkage of high performance concrete. Especially, the using method in combination with expansive additive and shrinkage reducing agent was more effective than the separately using method of that. Also, it analyzed that the combination of expansive additive of 5% and shrinkage reducing agent of 1% was the most suitable mixture, considering to the fluidity, strength and shrinkage properties.

The objectives of this paper are to develop an advanced GAX cycle named HGAX (Hybrid Generator Absorber heat exchanger) cycle, and to study the effect of key parameters on the cycle performance and the hot-water temperature from the condenser. New types of the HGAX cycle are developed by adding a compressor between the generator and the condenser- Type C (performance improvement and reduction of the generator temperature) and Type D (Hot-water temperature application). The solution temperature in the generator outlet is reduced to 168$^{\circ}C$ with the COP improvement of 19% compared to the standard GAX cycle. The hot-water temperature from the condenser is raised to 106$^{\circ}C$ for panel heating (Ondol heating) application.
