Fecal sterols, nonylphenolic compounds (NPs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were determined in surface water from Masan Bay and its adjacent rivers in February 2005. Concentrations of coporstanol (Cop), an indicator of fecal pollution, in surface water ranged from <10 to 13,853 ng/L, and concentrations of nonylphenol, the most toxic of the NPs, ranged from 10.2 to 481 ng/L, and concentrations of PAHs ranged from 8.61 to 223 ng/L. The concentrations of the compounds measured in this study were lower than or comparable to those at other locations in Korea and other countries. The contamination of Cop and PAHs in surface water was associated with the discharge from rivers passing through cities and/or industrial complexes. The NP contamination was associated with wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents through outfalls as well as riverine discharge. Compared to ecotoxicological values, the concentrations of NPs from rivers, the mouths of rivers, and WWTP outfall areas exceeded guidelines, suggesting that hot spot areas may pose a potential risk to sensitive species.

Recently, The diagnosis techniques of electric facilities are developed on live line. This paper describes the discharge characteristics of polymer insulator(EPDM A type). Keeping the facilities in good working order, the goal of this paper will provide the information to enable user to easily judge conditions of facilities on the spot. The performance of polymer insulator is assessed from the KS C IEC 60270 and CEA LWIWG-01(96)(Tracking Wheel Test). As the results, UV generation patterns of polymer insulator grow like a jellyfish shape follow the ramping voltage. Discharging UVs are detected at about 31.25% of breakdown voltage. Just then, dimension of UV image is about $0.84cm^{2}$. The dimension of max. UV image is about $297.4cm^{2}$ at $160kV(V_{bd})$. The position of UV generation due to surface discharge of polymer insulator is the center of insulator in the early, then moved the ground side and the last, UV image moved through the junction part of source side. Surface of aged polymer insulator is cracked and faded due to arc. UV absorption spectrum of polymer insulator are appeared the C-H bond of scissoring vib. at $1014cm^{-1}$ and C=O bond of recombination structure. Also, recombined UV absorption peak such as C-H, N-H, and O-H is detected at the $3321cm^{-1}$. Through the paper, there are inspection data which are the relations between surface discharge of polymer insulator and UV detecting image.

The objective of this study is to design and manufacture a fuel pump with the plunger diameter of 4 mm and stroke of 7 mm that can be mounted in a small single-cylinder four-stroke agricultural diesel engine, and to investigate the performance characteristics of the pump. The combustion pressure in a cylinder was reproduced by forming the back pressure of 1, 6, 11, 16 and 21 bar with a nitrogen gas in the home-manufactured modeling cylinder. In the experiment, the discharge pressure was measured at the spot of 1 cm away from the discharge port of a developed fuel pump. The delivery pressure and delivery flow rate were measured at the spot of 30 cm away from the discharge port of the pump, and the pump efficiency was calculated. The pump motor speed was changed from 600 to 800, 1000, 1200 and 1400 rpm. It is found that the delivery feed rate of fuel pump is increased as the rotational speed is raised, and is decreased as the back pressure, compression pressure in the cylinder, is increased. Also, the pump efficiency is reduced as the rotational speed and back pressure are increased.

In this study, the effectiveness of overflow improvement of weir was tested by conducting hydraulic experiments at the designated spot for installment of side weir under the condition of installment of hydraulic structures such as small reservoir in mainstream. The height of the reservoir was set up as a third of that of the weir, accordingly the rate of the height of the weir and the distance of the reservoir from the weir($B_h/L_b$) were 0.05, 0.025, 0.0167 each. As a result, overflows per unit width increased by 8.1%, 5.4% and 3.9% perspectively. A new discharge coefficient that adds $B_h/L_b$ as parameter to the existing discharge coefficient of trapezoidal broad crested side weir was suggested and the application of the new formula of discharge coefficient by comparing measured overflow with calculated overflow was identified.

It is of great economic importance to minimize the cylinder wear and the consumption rate of cylinder oil in a large two-stroke diesel engine. The motor-driven cylinder lubricator was first developed fur a large two-stroke marine diesel engine made in $W{\ddot{a}}rtsil{\ddot{a}}a$ Switzerland Ltd. by the joint research of industry-university. In this study, the effects of revolution speed, plunger stroke and cylinder back pressure on maximum discharge and delivery pressures, delivery delay duration, and oil feed rate are experimentally investigated by the home-manufactured cylinder lubricator. The maximum discharge pressure with a spot of 0.03 m and the maximum loss pressure at spots of 5, 6.78 and i 0 m away from the end of lubricator slot are increased as plunger stroke, revolution speed and back pressure are elevated, and the delivery delay duration is shortened as plunger stroke, revolution speed and oil pipe length are increased. Also, oil feed rate is increased as plunger stroke and revolution speed are raised, but lowered as the back pressure is increased.

The purpose of this study is to develop Water Quality Management System(WQMS), which performs calculating pollutant discharge and forecasting water quality with water pollution model. Operational water quality management requires not only controlling pollutants but acquiring and managing exact information. A GIS software, ArcView was used to enter or edit geographic data and attribute data, and MapObject was used to customize the user interface. PCI, a remote sensing software, was used for deriving land cover classification from 20 m resolution SPOT data by image processing. WQMS has two subsystems, Database Subsystem and Modelling subsystem. Database subsystem consisted of watershed data from digital map, remote sensing data, government reports, census data and so on. Modelling subsystem consisted of NSPLM(NonStorm Pollutant Load Model)-SPLM(Storm Pollutant Load Model). It calculates the amount of pollutant and predicts water quality. This two subsystem was connected through graphic display module. This system has been calibrated and verified by applying to Mokhyun stream watershed.

LLC resonant converter is used to control laser output power in Nd:YAG laser. Zero voltage switching (ZVS) is implemented to minimize the switching loss which is adopting the LLC resonant converter. In the spot welding processing of metal thin films, the processing quality is decided by the laser beam output energy of single pulse. We decide to the 50 [J] as the single pulse laser beam energy. Laser output power is investigated and experimented by changing the output current. That current is controled by the charging voltage of capacitor. From those results, we obtained the maximum laser output of 58.2 [J] and the conversion efficiency of 2.52% at the discharge voltage of 620V and the discharge current of 861 [A] and the pulse repetition rate of 1 [Hz] at the charging capacitor of 12,000 [${\mu}F$].

In the study, CE-QUAL-W2 was used and its examination and correction were conducted targeting 2001 and 2003 when the condition of rainfall was contradicted. Using the proved model in 2003, a scenario was implemented with management of locations for dewatering outlets and actual data for dam management in 1987 when inflow and outflow level were almost same. In case of the scenario which the location of dewatering outlets was 5m higher than usual location, exclusion efficiency for turbid water inflow at the beginning of precipitation was good. In case of the scenario which the location of dewatering outlets was 10m lower than usual location, exclusion efficiency for excluding turbid water remained in a reservoir after the end of precipitation. However, the scenario applying dam management data in 1987, exclusion efficiency was relatively low. In the scenario, power-generating water release spot at EL.57m for first four days after the beginning of precipitation, EL.52m for 5th to 8th and EL.42m from 9th days. An analysis of the scenario reveals that both excessive days exceeded 30 NTU and average turbidity levels were decreased comparing before and after the alteration on outlets. The average turbidity levels were decreased by minimum of 55% to maximum of 70% and 30NTU exceeding days were decreased by 45 days at maximum. Also, since it could exclude most of turbid water in a reservoir before the destatifcation, the risk for turbid water evenly distributed in a reservoir along with turn-over could be decreased as well.

This study exploits the robot system which is necessary in gene study and bio-technology industry. As well, a DNA chip, which of use has been increased recently, can be manufactured with this system. The robot consists of a device spotting DNA on the silylated slide, a well plate, a bed for fixing well plates, devices of washing and drying the pin in DNA spotting .device, a distillation-water vessel, and a discharge vessel of wash water. We made the period of sticking DNA to the pin on the well plate to be 15 seconds. The spot size of DNA was set to be 0.28 mm on the average by bringing the slide into contact with pin during 1 second. If DNA is spotted in minimum space possible about 0.32mm, this system can stick about 8,100 DNA spots on the well plate with this rate. Analyzing the procedure: Movement starts, Pin washes, dries, and smears DNA on the well plate. Spotting DNA onto 12 chips took 2 minutes and 50 seconds.
