Evapotranspiration (ET) is an important process acrossa wide range of disciplines, including ecology, hydrology and meteorology.In this study, daily actual evapotranspiration (ETa) is based energy balance equation and considering high surface roughness length to estimate. This study was used variety of satellite data and ground observation data in Korea Peninsula from 1 January to 31 December 2009. In this study, sensible heat flux is one of the important parameters of ETa. Measurements of sensible heat flux are, however, complex and can't be easily obtained. So this study was used an empirical coefficient B to simplify estimate of sensible heat flux. The coefficient B in the ETa model requires a careful definition of aerodynamic resistance. So this study proposed ETa model considering aerodynamic resistance and high surface roughness length. This study was conducted validation in comparison of the proposed daily ETa results with Priestley-Taylor ETp.

Ground water flow can be studied with model test. Model test of ground water works are necessary for economic and safe design of the works. Also influence of the ground water flow to the durability and safety of hydraulic structures can be studied with this model. a. Sand model ; Water flow through porous media is the principle of sand model. Darcy's formula is the basic equation, $q=k{\frac{dh}{ds}}^{\circ}. The effect of the ground water flow on the grain system itself is represented with this model only. b. Hele-Shaw model ; In this model use is made of the viscous flow analogy. Viscous fluid such as glycerine flowing through two parallel plates depends on Poiseuille law, $q=-c{\frac{dh}{ds}}$. The analogue can be used vertically and horizontally. c. Heat model ; This is based on the analogy of the Fourier's law for heat conduction and Darcy's law for ground water flow. Especially unsteady problem can be studied with this model. A difficulty of the construction of this model is the isolation, which has to prevent losses of the heat. d. Electirc model ; Ohm's law for electric current is analogous to Darcy's law. Resistance material such as metal foil, graphite block, water with salt added, gelatine with salt added, ete. is connected to electric sources and resistor, and equi-voltage line is detected with galvanometer, $N_aCl$, $CuSo_4$, etc. are used as salt in the model. e. Membrane model ; This model is based on the facts that the deflection of a thin membrane obeys Laplace's equation if there is no load in the direction perpendicular to the membrane, and if the dellection is small.

The correlation was investigated between the observed heat of ligation and calculated bond energy for square planar and octahedral Cu(II) complexes by EHMO (Extended Huckel Molecular Orbital) method. It was found that net charge of $Cu^{2+}$ ion of both square planar $[Cu(H_2O)_{4-x}(NH_3)_x]^{2+}$(X = 0, 1, 2,${\ldots}$4) and octahedral $[Cu(H_2O)_{6-x}(NH_3)_x]^{2+}$complexes (X = 0, 1, 2,${\ldots}$6) is decreased with substituting $NH_3$ for $H_2O$ molecule. It was found that a good relationship exists between the observed heat of ligation and the calculated bond energy. From this fact, we can obtain a linear equation ${\Delta}H$ = 0.1194$E_{diss}$ + 0.4718, theoretical equation.

The wind is very important factor in forest fire spread. Flame spread has a change through wind pattern change in forest fire. In order to analyze the forest fire flame spread rate, change of flame tilt depending on wind may be considering first. This is be cause the flame spread rate varies by the flame tilt changed due to transfer of heat. Especially, as wind speed grow, flame gets closer to surface, heat transfer ratio increase, virgin fuel bed reaches ignition temperature more rapidly, and flame moves faster. This study deduces, through experiment and physical figure analysis, relations on the change behavior of flame tilt due to wind. The value of flame tilt angle calculated from the equation and the experiment value showed average error angle of $3.3^{\circ}$, which is relatively smaller than results of previous studies that used other coefficient. Froude number coefficient A can be calculated in the method provided in this research for estimation of flame tilt angle of virgin fuel bed with varying thermal properties. The research finding is expected to be applied to future studies on flame spread through numerical analysis of heat transfer.

Radiative heating of a liquid rocket base plane due to plume emission is numerically investigated. Calculation of flow and temperature fields around rocket nozzle precedes and thereby realistic plume shape and temperature distribution inside the plume are obtained. Based on the calculated temperature field, radiative transfer equation is solved by discrete ordinate method. With the sample rocket plume, the averaged radiative heat flux reaching the base plane is calculated about 5 kw/m$^{2}$ at the flight altitude of 10.9 km. This value is small compared with radiative heat flux caused by constant-temperature (1500 K) plume emission, but it is not negligibly small. At higher. altitude (29.8km), view factor between the base plane and the exhaust plume is increased due to the increased expansion angle of the plume. Nevertheless, the radiative heating disappears since the base plane is heated to high temperature (above 1000 K due to convective heat transfer.

The physicochemical properties of erythritol were examined by measuring water absorption, solubility, water activity, heat stability, and viscosity compared to those of sucrose, xylitol, sorbitol and fructo-oligosaccharide. Erythritol showed the lowest water absorption and the highest water activity reducing capacity. In the solubility test of sweeteners, the saturation concentration of erythritol at $20^{\circ}C$ was 35.8%, which was the lowest solubility. Caramelization test and Maillard reaction test showed that erythritol was stabler than sucrose in heat treatment, while fructo-oligosaccharide showed the strongest reaction. The viscosity of erythritol was similar to that of other sweeteners at the same concentration (10%, 30% w/w). The viscosity of sweeteners increased exponentially with increasing concentration but decreased with increasing temperature following Arrhenius equation. The activation energy for flow of 30% erythritol solution was estimated to be 10.8 kcal/g mol.

The Friction Stir Welding(FSW) has mainly been used for making butt joints in Al alloys. Development of Friction Stir Lap Welding(FSLW) would expand the number of applications. Microstructure of FSLW in A5052-H112 alloy was investigated under varying rotation and welding speed. As the rotation speed was increased and the welding speed was decreased, a amount of heat was increased. As a result, bead interval was narrower, bead width are larger, and experimental bead interval was almost similar to theoretical bead interval. Typical microstructures of FSLW A5052-H112 alloy consist of three zones, including Stir Zone(SZ), Thermo-Mechanically Affected Zone(TMAZ) and Heat Affected Zone(HAZ). As a amount of heat was increased, average grain size was larger in three zones. Nevertheless, the aspect ratio was almost fixed for FSLW conditions. The misorientation of SZ, HAZ and TMAZ was examined. A large number of low angle grain boundaries, which were formed by severe plastic deformation, were showed in TMAZ as comparison with SZ and HAZ. Microhardness distribution was high in order of BM, SZ, TMAZ, and HAZ. The Micro-hardness distribution in HAZ, TMAZ of upper plate were lager than lower plate. Relationship between average grain size and microhardness was almost corresponded to Hall-Petch equation.

Flame height calculation in a forest fire is a crucial part of predicting horizontal or vertical flame spread flared by radiation heat transfer. Flame height, which is one of the flame characteristics, can be estimated by the average height of luminous flame. This research relied on flame height observation test on P. densiflora surface fuel bed, which are surface combustibles in a forest, and calorimeter to measure Heat Release Rate, thus produced $H_f=0.027(\dot{Q'})^{2/3}$, flame height calculation equation for surface fuel. The research did not take into consideration such conditions as external velocity, slope and other variables that could affect flame height. According to comparison among experiment results, calculation results of the above formula and those of existing Heskestad formula (1998), it was found that standard error in fallen pine needles between experimental results and calculation results of the above formula amounts to 0.08, whereas standard error in same plant between experimental results and calculation results of existing Heskestad formula amounts to 0.23.

A finite element model for the process of squeeze casting for metal matrix composites (MMCs) in cylindrical mold is developed. The fluid flow and the heat transfer are the fundamental phenomena in the squeeze casing process. To describe heat transfer with solidification of molten aluminum, the energy equation in terms of temperature and enthalpy are applied to two dimensional axisymmetric model which is similar to the experimental system. And one dimensional flow model is employed to simulate the transient metal flow. The direct iteration technique was used to solve the resulting nonlinear algebraic equations. A computer program is developed to calculate the enthalpy, temperature and fluid velocity. Cooling curves and temperature distribution during infiltration and solidification are calculated for pure aluminum. The temperature is measured and recorded experimentally. At two points of the perform inside and one point of the mold outside, thermocouple wire are installed. The time-temperature data are compared with the calculated cooling curves. The experimental results show that the finite element model can estimate the solidification time and predict the cooling process.
