Since the expansion of perlite occurs in a few second in high temperature, it is difficult to identify an expansion phenomenon through experiments. In order to explain this phenomenon, a numerical study has been carried out by setting a model that water vapour diffuses to a tiny bubble existing in perlite melts and then makes the bubble grow and perlite expand. When the bubble grew and the perlite expanded due to the diffusion of water vapour, the dynamic temperature of perlite decreased. Meanwhile, the dynamic pressure of bubble increased at the beginning as water vapour diffuses in melts, but rather decreased after a rapid expansion of bubble.

Water vapour permeable and water resistant film was laminated to made footwear woven fabric and non-woven fabrics by screen type with thermosetting reactive hot melt adhesive. Optimum conditions of each process were investigated, and the properties of film laminated fabric with optimum conditions are evaluated. The results are as follows. Thermosetting reactive polyurethane hot melt is retain proper heat resistance differently thermoplastic hot melt. Optimum melting adhesive process conditions are as follows ; drum temperature $95^{\circ}C$, hose temperature $97^{\circ}C$, feeding pipe temperature $100^{\circ}C$, screen temperature $105^{\circ}C$, pressure of opposite roller $1kgf/cm^2$, pressure of laminating roller $3kgf/cm^2$, finishing speed 15 m/min, melting temperature $120^{\circ}C$, cooling time 20 s, pressing temperature $130^{\circ}C$, pressing time 30 s. As the thickness of film was increased, the water vapour permeability was decreased but water resistance was increased, and the effect of film is dominant over all the others in the air permeability.

The solar powered water pump is very ideal equipment because solar power is more intensive when the water is more needed in summer and it is very helpful in the rural area, in which electrical power is not available. The average solar radiation power is $3.488\;kWh/(m^2{\cdot}day)$ in Korea. In this study, the experimental system of the water pump driven by the radiation energy were designed, assembled, tested and analyzed fur realizing the solar powered water pump. Energy conversion ken radiation energy to mechanical energy by using n-pentane as operating material was done and the water pumping cycles were able to be continued. The quantity of the water pumped per cycle ranged from 2 L to 10 L depending on the level of the valve open area far the vapour supply. The average quantity was about 4,366 cc. The thermal efficiency was about $0.018\%$. The pressure level of the n-pentane vapour in flash tank was about $110\~150\;kPa$ and that in the water tank was $93\~130\;kPa$. The pressure in the condenser during cycles was maintained as about 70 kPa. The condensation of the n-pentane vapour in the water tank was increased with the cycles even though the internal and external insulation were done. Air tank performance was better with increasing of the water piston displacement and the water could be pumped with the water piston displacement becoming higher than 6,500 cc.

The paper gives a brief introduction to protonic defects and their chemistry, thermodynamics and transport in oxides. The temperature dependence of the equilibrium concentration of protons is illustrated and compared for different acceptor-doped oxides. The difficulties of saturating as well as emptying the oxides of protons are discussed. In order to illustrate the possibility of lattice relaxation of defects, a conceptual study is made of a case where the enthalpy of dissolution of protons(water) at the cost of oxygen vacancies is assumed dependent on the concentration of vacancies. It is shown how this changes the behavior of hydration curves vs temperature and water vapour pressure. finally, a discussion is given on the water uptake in heavily oxygen deficient oxides; how water uptake may affect order-disorder in the oxygen sublattice and eventually lead to defective, disordered or ordered oxyhydroxides or hydroxides of potential interest as intermediate temperature proton conductions.

The change of strength and water vapour diffusion resistant by soluble salts was investigated in the tuff and granite used in many stone monuments of Gyeongju area. With $Na_2SO_4$ and $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ were treated the rock samples to understand the difference of solubility. The densities of the tested rocks were increased by the impregnation of $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ and $Na_2SO_4$. The flexural strength was increased in the tuff samples but decreased in the granite as the salts increased in the pore. In the tuff, the uniaxial compressive strength was increased by $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, but decreased by $Na_2SO_4$. In the granite, it was decreased slightly by $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, but increased by $Na_2SO_4$. The water vapour diffusion resistant was increased by the salts in both rocks. As results, it was cleared that the mechanical strength colud be increased in early stage of weathering by the accumulation of salt and water vapour diffusion resistant.

In this study, the coefficient of performance of a vapour compression heat pump system was analyzed for the evaluation of the heat pump performance. A water-to-air heat pump was assembled and tested by changing the level of the compressor driving speed and the air mass flow rate during air heating process. The coefficient of performance for air heating was 2.6~3.8 and that for water cooling was 1.0~1.4. The coefficient of performance was not depending on the levels of the compressor driving speed or levels of the air mass flow rate, but on the temperature of the air and water. The coefficient of performance for air heating increased by about 0.2 with the water temperature increasing by 1$^{\circ}C$.

The following research conclusions were made, relative to the experiments of the textiles of fire fighters Protective Clothing. 1. When the body protection efficiency such as the thickness, the strength and heat resistance are considered, Nomex(N) is tuned out the best outer shelf, Gore-tex(KG) the best moisture barrier, and Wool-felt(WC) the best thermal barrier. 2.

The precaution to spray with agricultural chemicals is very important, in particular personal protective equipment against pesticide in order to protect farmers# pesticide poisoning. The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has proclaimed the announcement of pesticide proof clothing(PPC) in 1983, and revised it in 1987. The announcement had many performance items to achieve the high-quality protective clothing for pesticide including weight, density, force strength, dimensional change(in washing and drying), fastness(dyeing, washing, sweating and rubbing) and water resistance of clothes. Announcement of the PPC has better durability and penetration resistance function than former days, but the plenty of farmers didn#t wear it because of the intolerable heat. To increase wearing rates, the pesticide proof clothing must be estimated the water-vapour resistance. From the results, the developed PPC with polyester treated water-repellent showed the more excellent comfort than an existing PPC with nylon coated polyurethane. But the developed PPC appeared to have the low water-vapour resistance. Therefore, it is suggested that the property of pesticide penetration must be evaluated through the field test in the future study.

To retrieve Sea Surface Temperature(SST) from NOAA-AVHRR imagery the spilt window atmospheric correction algorithm is generally used. Recently, there have been various new algorithms developed to process these data, namely the variable-coefficient split-window, the R54 transmittance-ratio method, fixed-coefficient nonlinear algorithm, dynamic water vapour (DWV) correction method, Dynamic Water Vapour and Temperature algorithm (DWVT). We used MCSST (Multi-Channel Sea surface temperature) and NLSST(Non linear sea surface temperature) algorithms in this study. The study area is around the Korea sea area (Yellow Sea). We compared and analyzed with various methods by applying each Ocean in-situ data and satellite data. The primary aim of study is to verify and optimize algorithms. Finally, this study proposes an optimized algorithm for SST retrieval.

야외 운동(outdoor activities)복에 사용되는 소재들은 외부로부터 신체를 안전하게 보호해 주어야 될 뿐 아니라 쾌적하게 유지시켜 주어야 한다. 의복착용시 쾌적감에 결정적인 영향을 미치는 인자는 몸의 열적 평형상태를 유지하기 위한 수단인 수분전달 특성이다. 본 연구는 여러 종류의 야외 운동복용 직물에서의 수분전달 현상을 조사하여 규명하므로써 이 직물들이 실제 의복생활에 응용될 의복계 (clothing system)를 형성하였을 때의 수분전달 현상을 설명하고자 하는 기초연구이다. 연구의 결과는 base layer용, mid layer용 직물들이 shell layer로 쓰이는 waterproof breathable 직물보다 수분 전달률이 높았으며, waterproof breathable 직물의 수분 전달률은 microfibre 직물, PTFE-laminated 직물 그리고 polyurethane coated 직물 순 이었다. 또한 polyurethane 직물에서는 back coated 직물이 face-coated 직물보다 수분 전달률이 높았다.
