We evaluated the effects of heat treatment on various properties of onion extracts (Allium cepa). Onion was heated at various temperatures ($110-150^{\circ}C$) for various times (1-5 hr), and the total polyphenol, flavonoid, and free sugar contents, and antioxidant activity were investigated. With increased heating temperatures and exposure times, the total contents of polyphenols and flavonoids, as well as antioxidant activity increased. The highest total polyphenol content (189.80 mg/100g) occurred after heating for 2 hr at $140^{\circ}C$. The highest total flavonoid content (252.51 mg/100g) occurred after heating for 3 hr at $150^{\circ}C$. The antioxidant activity assessed using the DPPH method was highest, at 2.1 mg/mL ($IC_{50}$ value), after heating for 2 hr at $150^{\circ}C$. Correlations between antioxidant activity and the total polyphenol, total flavonoid, and fructose contents were highly significant (all p<0.01). The optimal heating time and temperature were 2 hr and $130^{\circ}C$.

교반형 볼 밀에서 실리카 분말의 열처리에 따른 분쇄효율을 분쇄에 따른 에너지 소비량을 측정함으로써 조사하였다. 열처리를 행한 것과 행하지 않은 시료를 비교해 보면, 600~90$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 후 실온에서 냉각된 시료를 건식 분쇄하였을 경우 약 40~50% 정도, 열처리 후 물속에서 급속 냉각한 경우 약 52～62% 정도의 에너지의 감소 효과가 있었다. 또한 열처리한 실리카 분말을 습식 분쇄를 할 경우 건식 분쇄에 비하여 약 40% 정도의 분쇄에너지가 적게 소모되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 실리카 분말을 열처리 한 후, 급속 냉각할 경우 발생하는 열충격은 입도에 대한 영향을 거의 받지 않으며 분쇄효과를 향상시킴을 알 수 있었다.

Purpose: Dual cylindrical microwave chambers equipped with an ohmic heating tube were designed and fabricated to maximize the electric field strength for expeditious heat treatment of particulate foods. Methods: The efficacy of the combination heater was investigated by simulating the electric field distribution by using COMSOL Multiphysics software. Results: All components of the designed microwave heating unit were suitable for transmitting maximal microwave power to the load. The simulated electric field distribution implied that single-mode microwave heating would be sufficient for the steady generation of a highly localized heating zone in the cavity. During impedance matching, the calculated reflection coefficient ($S_{11}$) was small, possibly implying minimal power loss and wave reflection in the designed microwave heating chamber. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the possibility of concentrating the microwave power at the centerline for a single-frequency microwave, for thermal treatment of multiphase foods without attenuating the microwave power.

In this paper, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for gear heat treatment using simultaneous dual frequency (SDF) induction heating is conducted. To do this, thermal-electromagnetic coupled FE model is built. A two dimensional FE model of gear and heater is introduced to reduce computation time. For more time-efficient analysis, harmonic analysis for electromagnetic model is adopted and transient analysis model, for heat transfer model. Through the coupled analysis, it can be found that the proposed FE model can solve for SDF induction heating of gear and heat treatment parameters can also be determined.

High $J_c\;YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ superconducting films have been fabricated $LaAlO_3(100)$ substrate by MOD method using dichloroacetic acid(DCA) as chelating solvent for preparing precursor solution. Heating rate was varied in order to optimize the calcination heat treatment condition in DCA-MOD method. Coated films were calcined at lower temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$ in flowing humid oxygen atmosphere. The heating rate was calcined from $13.3^{\circ}C/min\;to\;0.28^{\circ}C/min$. Conversion heat treatment was performed $800^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in flowing Ar gas containing 1000 ppm oxygen with a humidity of 9.45%. Surface and cross sectional SEM microstructures showed that particle sizes were increased with heating rate at a calcination step. The amount of pores was increased with heating rate in the calcined films. Dense microstructure and sharp texture were developed in an YBCO films after conversion heat treatment. A high critical current density (Jc) of $1.26MA/cm^2$ (@77 K and self-field) was obtained for the YBCO film which was prepared with a heating rate of $0.28^{\circ}C/min$.

Hyperthermia is a form of cancer treatment in which affected human tissue is exposed to $>40^{\circ}C$ temperature. In this paper, our goal is to assess the efficacy of fullerene agents to reduce heating time for cancer treatment. Such agents can accelerate heating of cancer cells and improve hyperthermia treatment efficacy. Typically, in vitro testing involves cancer cell culturing, heating cell cultures in accordance to specifications, and recording cancer cell viability after hyperthermia. To heat cell cultures, we design and evaluate a 2.4-GHz microwave cavity with controllable temperature. The cavity is comprised of a polystyrene cell culture dish (diameter = 54 mm, height = 13.5 mm) and a printed monopole antenna placed within the cavity for microwave heating. The culture temperature can be controlled through the intensity and duration of the antenna's microwave radiation. Heating experiments were carried out to validate the cavity's performance for F-12K culture medium (Kaighn's F-12K medium, ATCC). Importantly, fullerene agents were shown to reduce heating time and improve hyperthermia treatment efficacy. The culture medium temperature increased, on average, from $24.0^{\circ}C$ to $50.9^{\circ}C$ (without fullerene) and from $24.0^{\circ}C$ to $56.8^{\circ}C$ (with 3 mg/mL fullerene) within 15 minutes.

The feasibility of treating three softwood(Japanese larch pitch pine, and Korean pine) thinned logs by double-diffusion treatment processes was investigated. Some posts were incised before immersion, and others were imersed in hot copper sulfate solution. Comparison among species indicated that. in general, pitch pine was most treatable and Japanese larch least treatable. For all three species, almost all treatment schedules gave consistently good penetration and high net retention, but very steep gradient of preservative distribution. As expected, the treatability was increased by the extension of immersion time, increased concentration of treating solution, incising. and heating of the first solution. Of the variables tested, it appears that heating of the first solution is the most important. From the data in this paper, it may be concluded that, if the first solution is not heated, the best schedule is #3. If the first solution is healed. it appears the best schedules are #10 or #11. Since heating of the first solution improves the treatability. schedules # 10 or :#11 are recommended if the cost of heating might be justified. The data presented in this paper indicate that double-diffusion treatment processes seem to offer a promise as a comparatively effective and easy-operating method of treating thinned logs for the small-scale production of treated stock.

The effects of temperature heating-up rate and pressure building-up phase on the inactivation of Listeria innocua ATCC 33090 were evaluated in buffered peptone water. The number of L. innocua was reduced by 5.57 and 6.52 log CFU/mL during the nonisothermal treatment (the come-up time followed by isothermal process) and the isothermal treatment, respectively, at $60^{\circ}C$. When compared to the isothermal treatment (0.76$33.2^{\circ}C/min$ of temperature heating-rate. The effect of the combined high pressure and thermal processing on the inactivation of L. innocua increased with increasing pressure and temperature. At all temperature levels from 40 to $60^{\circ}C$ under 700 MPa, L. innocua was not detected by enrichment culture (>7 log reduction).

This study was performed to investigate the effects of heat treatment the on mechanical properties of two species of wood under different heating conditions including at $180^{\circ}C$ for 12 h and 24 h, and at $210^{\circ}C$ for 3 h and 6 h. Two species of wood, Pinus densiflora and Larix kaempferi, were exposed to different heat treatments to assess the effects on the volume change, bending properties in static and dynamic mode and compressive strength. The results showed heat treatment caused significant changes in mechanical properties such as the static and dynamic moduli of elasticity ($MOE_d$ and $MOE_s$), and the modulus of rupture (MOR). The volume of the wood after heat treatment decreased as the heating temperature and time were increased. The bending strength performance of the wood after heat treatment decreased as the heating temperature and time were increased. The effect of heat treatment at a high temperature on the bending MOR was greater in both species than that for a long time. However, the compressive strengths of all the heat-treated samples were higher than the control sample. Furthermore, highly significant correlations between $MOE_d$ and MOR, and $MOE_s$ and MOR were found for all heating conditions.
