In this study, unit hydrographs are calculated when precipitations of 10 scales instantaneously occurs in a virtual watershed with a constant slope and roughness. Then, the relationship between the peak flow rate and the peak occurrence time of the unit hydrograph was calculated for the precipitation scale, respectively. At this time, the virtual watershed simplified with a rhombic shape, a constant slope, and a flow condition with a certain roughness was applied instead of a natural watershed in order to understand the effect the precipitation scale has on the peak value of the unit hydrograph. And it was assumed that the precipitation in the basin was effective rainfall and the runoff was direct runoff, and the runoff flowed in a straight, uniform flow from the drop point to the outlet. The relationship between the peak flow and the peak occurrence time of the unit hydrograph was calculated in the case of 10 types of precipitation scales of 10 mm, 40 mm, 90 mm, 160 mm, 250 mm, 360 mm, 640 mm, 1,000 mm, 1,210 mm, and 1,690 mm of effective precipitation. A noteworthy achievement of this study is that, even without the storage effect of the watershed, as the scale of precipitation increases, the depth of runoff increases, so the flow rate in the watershed increases and the distance per unit time increases, so the peak flow rate increases and the peak occurrence time increases. This is a nonlinear characteristic of watershed runoff.

This study was carried out to investigate shelf-life and quality of fresh-cut Dungkunma (Dioscorea bulbifera) in order to elevate utilization of Dungkunma a fresh food. Before vacuum-packaging (in polyethylene/polypropylene film ($100{\mu}m$, $15{\times}20cm$, $75{\pm}2cmHg$) and storaging at $2^{\circ}C$, Dungkunma was peeled out and cut to dice type ($2.0{\pm}0.5cm^3$), and then washed and blanched using hot water (at $90{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ with 2% NaCl solution for 30 sec). Blanched Dungkunma was pre-dried at room temperature, $40^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$ for removing surface water. Each peeled dice Dungkunma was packed 50 g in polyethylene/polypropylene film ($100{\mu}m$, $15{\times}20cm$) with vacuum treatment ($75{\pm}2cmHg$) and stored at $2^{\circ}C$ for 90 days. Hardness and adhesiveness of Dungkunma blanched by 2% NaCl and pre-dried at $50^{\circ}C$ (SB50) were the highest, but changes were the least during storage. Lightness and yellowness of stored Dungkunma in all treatments decreased slightly while redness increased during storage. Changes of color of SB50 was the least. Total concentration of aerobic bacteria in SB50 was $1.88{\pm}0.18log\;CFU/g$ during 90 days and E. coli was detected in all treatments during whole storage periods. Dioscin and allantoin contents of SB50 were virtually unchanged during the storage. Consequently, the results of this study suggest that vacuum packaged Dungkunma after blanching using 2% NaCl solution could be effective to prolong the quality of fresh-cut Dungkunma.

A study on the processing method of anchovy hydrolysate paste (AHP) was carried out to improve the sensory quality of salted and fermented fish. Homogenized whole anchovy was hydrolyzed using commercial pretenses, Complex enzyme-2000 (CE, Pacific Chem. Co.) and Alcalase (AL, Novo), in a cylindrical vessel with 4 baffle plates and 6-bladed turbine impeller. Optimal pH, temperature, and enzyme concentration for the hydrolysis with CE and AL were $7.0,\;52^{\circ}C,\;7\%$, and $8.0,\;60^{\circ}C,\;6\%$, respectively. The rational amount of water for homogenization, agitation speed, and hydrolyzing time were $100\%\;(w/w)$, 100 rpm, and 210 min, respectively. To make the hydrolysate to paste type, it was effective to mix the additives, such as starch, soybean protein, agar, and carrageenan gum to the hydrolysate 5 min before the end of boiling at $100^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Minimal NaCl concentration for long-term preservation was $15\%$, and this could be reduced to $12\%$ by adding $5\%$ of KCl. yield of the AHP based on the total nitrogen content was $94.6\~97.0\%,\;and\;86.0\~89.2\%$, of the nitrogen was amino nitrogen. Salinity, pH and histamine content of the AHP prepared with $12\%$ NaCl and $5\%$ KCl were $9.3\~9.9\%,\;6.1\~6.2$, and below 13 mg/100 g, respectively. The AHP was stable at $26{\pm}3^{\circ}C$ for 60 days on bacterial growth, and addition of $0.05\%$ of rosemary (Herbalox) extract was effective to inhibit the lipid oxidation of the AHP during storage.

Vaseline, wax, soybean oil, and coated paper label were separately treated on watermelon stalk and stored at $7^{\circ}C$, in order to delay the wilting of watermelon stalk. The result showed that vaseline was most effective to delay the wilting of stalk and coated paper label was best in the outward quality. However wax and soybean oil were not effective. The factors were investigated to affect the wilting of watermelon stalk. Water content of watermelon stalk were closely related to the wilting of stalk but bacterial density of watermelon stalk was not significant. The shelf life of watermelon stalk was compared with that of watermelon flesh. The result showed that watermelon stalk was more rapidly wilted than watermelon flesh. Therefore this method was applied to prove the wilting property of watermelon stalk to determine the quality of watermelon flesh.

Heat transfer performance improvement by fin and groovs is studied for condensation of R-11 on integral-fin tubes. Eight tubes with trapczodially shaped integral-fins having fin density from 748 to 1654fpm(fin per meter) and 10, 30 grooves are tested. A plain tube having the same diameter as the finned tubes is also used for comparison. R-11 condensates at saturation state of 32 $^{\circ}C$ on the outside tube surface coded by inside water flow. All of test data are taken at steady state. The heat transfer loop is used for testing singe long tubes and cooling is pumped from a storage tank through filters and folwmeters to the horizontal test section where it is heated by steam condensing on the outside of the tubes. The pressure drop across the test section is measured by menas pressure gauge and manometer. The results obtained in this study is as follows : 1. Based on inside diameter and nominal inside area, overall heat transfer coefficients of finned tube are enhanced up to 1.6 ~ 3.7 times that of a plain tube at a constant Reynolds number. 2. Friction factors are up to 1.6 ~ 2.1 times those of plain tubes. 3. The constant pumping power ratio for the low integral-fin tubes increase directly with the effective area to the nominal area ratio, and with the effective area diameter ratio. 4. A tube having a fin density of 1299fpm and 30 grooves has the best heat transfer performance.

The control of enzymic browning in potato slices by the use of citrate and phosphate buffer at different pH values and concentration was investigated. Minimally processed potatoes were stored at $5^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ followed by dipping in distilled water, citrate buffer (pH $3.0{\sim}5.0$) and phosphate buffer (pH $5.0{\sim}7.0$). The color characteristic was measured after storage at $5^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. Treatment effectiveness was greatly improved by reducing pH and temperature. The citrate buffer was more effective than phosphate buffer in the browning inhibitory capacity. The citrate buffer (pH 3.0) showed the most anti-browning effect in this condition and more effective inhibition of browning by increasing concentration of treatment solution. The phosphate buffer (pH 5.0) treatment showed more effectiveness than concentration of 0.5 M of citrate buffer treatment.

To examine how the width of connecting channels, the width of the Kumho lock gate, and the opening/shutting criteria of the Yeongam connecting channel lock gate affect the flood stage of Lake Yeongsan, Lake Yeongam, and Lake Kumho, located in the lower reaches of the Yeongsan River, unsteady flood routing was performed by connecting the three lakes into a single interlinked system. The coupled operation of the three lakes was found to have little effect when the widths of the lock gates and the Yeongam and Kumho connecting channels are set at the current level. The most effective way to lower the water level in Lake Yeongsan was to widen the Yeongam connecting channel, but this caused the water level in Lake Yeongam to rise. To lower the increased water level in Lake Yeongam by utilizing the water storage capacity of Lake Kumho, it was necessary to widen both the Kumho lock gate and the Kumho connecting channel. It was found that the optimum opening/shutting criterion for the Yeongam connecting channel lock gate is approximately EL.(+)0.8 m under the simulated conditions used in this study and the criterion allows of maximal lowering of the water levels in Lake Yeongam and Lake Kumho while maintaining a near-constant water level in Lake Yeongsan.

The decomposition of malathion in dust for mulations prepared from four Korean tales as carriers during storage period has been studied. Amberlite CG-120, a cation exchange resin . which has higher cation exchange capacity than tales, was also used as a carrier in hope of finding out the effect of nagative charge upon the decomposition of malathion. Besides the original talc powders obtained directly from the mines, the hydrogen ion saturated forms were also used as carriers for comparisonal study. The saturated ions for the resin were hydrogen, sodium and magnesium. As the physical properties of the tales, colloid content, water adsorption capacity, PH, specific surface, phosphate fixing capacity and exchangeable canons were determined, and these properties were correlated with the amount of the decomposition. Following results were obtained from the experiment. 1. The malathion in the talc in dust was found to decompose around 10-15% ofthe total withina month. About 50% of the decom position that took place after a month was found to occur within a week. 2. The resin which has higher cation exchange capacity than the tales was highly effective in the decomposition of malathion compared with the tales. 3. In every case the saturation of the exchange complexes with hydrogen ion greatly accelerated the decomposition of malathion. 4. The most highly correlated physical properties with the decomposition were colloid content and specific surface of the tales. 5. The water adsorption and phosphate fixing capacities of the tales were found not to correlate with the amount of malathion decomposed. From the experimental results it was concluded that the active negative spots on the colloidal tales or the resin attract the electropositive phosphorus atom in a malathion molecule thereby inducing the decomposition easier. The presence of hydrogen ion nearby might cause a catalytic effect in the decomposition of malathion.

The process of making or cultivating indigo dyes is very cumbersome and complex. The dye extraction and dyeing methods using general plant dye, moth repellent dye, fast acting natural dye, and other dyes are very different. This research investigates the extraction of indigo dye and liquid dye extraction of polygonum(indigo) plants using calcium oxide water. While extracting indigo dye the concentration of purified indigo dye may be controlled by adjusting the pH level. Due to the various uses of dyes the adjustment of surface color must be considered. In regard to the change according to different concentrations of reducing agents, it was found that cotton fabrics and ramie fabrics show the highest color difference at 0.4% and 0.3% respectively. As the reduction temperature increases, the color difference increases as well. The maximum color difference was found to appear at $90^{\circ}C$. Cotton fabrics and ramie fabrics showed 70.55 and 67.01 respectively. The color difference increases as the concentration of dyes increases, but at a concentration of 300%, cotton fabrics was found to show 6.22PB in H value using the Munsell color system, containing purple and blue color. The pH of the polygonum dyes extracted through this experiment were adjusted by adding calcium oxide to the experimental water, without directly adding calcium oxide to the liquid polygonum extract. In a refine state, it was mixed with polygonum extract to extract a more refine and highly concentrated indigo dye. When lye and reducing agents are added to extracted indigo dye and sealed for long-term storage, it can be effective and easily used for dyeing.

This paper provides a fusion technology between a district cooling energy system and an environment conservation policy based on the energy savings and reusable cold energy resources. The district heating and cooling systems are very effective ways for an energy saving, a cost reduction and a safety control. It is necessary to equalize the energy savings and an environmental preservation policy for an improved human lift. A gasification process of a liquefied natural gas, cooling water from deep seawater and an ice water thermal storage system may produce a cold energy. A district cooling system is used to cool an apartment, office buildings and factory facilities with a cooling energy supply pipeline. LNG cooling energy will switch a conventional air-conditioning system, which is operated by on electrical energy and a Freon refrigerant. Coincident with significant clean energy and operating cost savings, LNG cold energy system owen radical reductions in an air-borne pollutant, $CO_2$ and the release of environmentally harmful refrigerants compared with that of the conventional air-conditioning system. This study provides useful information on the fusion technology of a LNG cold energy usage and energy savings, and environmental conservation.
