Experimental studies are carried out in order to investigate the effects of heat treatment on the surface machined by W-EDM. In this work, two ways of heat treatment after W-EDM are considered. As a comparison, the machined surface by a traditional method such as milling/grinding is also considered. Thereby, specimens are prepared by four different machining methods. Those are (1) milling and then grinding, (2) wire-cut electric discharge machining (W-EDM), and (3) low temperature heat treatment or (4) high temperature heat treatment after W-EDM. The resulting surface roughness are measured and the changes of surface microstructures are investigated using the scanning electron microscope (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). In general, heat treatment after W-EDM result in smoother surface and better chemical composition at the machined surface. Especially, high temperature tempering could remove defects in the thermally affected zone, which cause an overall deterioration of the surface machined by W-EDM.

The sulfidation behavior of a sputter-deposited amorphous coating of 69.0%Nb-16.9Ni-11.9%Al-2.2%Si (at.%) has been investigated as a funtion of temperature.(973-1173K) in pure sulfur pressure of 0.01atm. The sulfidation kinetics of the casting obyed the parabolic rate low over the whole temperature ranges studied. The stlfidation rate increased with the temperature, as expected. The sulfide scale, the composition of which was $Al_2S_3,\;NbS_2,\;Ni_{3-x}S_2\;and\;FeCrS_4$, formed on the amorphous coating was primarily bilayered. Both the outer fastgrowing non-protective 4Al_2S_3$scale and the inner slowly-growing protective $NbS_2$,/TEX> scale and the inner slowly-growing protective $NbS_2$ scale had some Fe and Cr dissolution, which evidently came from the base substrate alloy of stainless steel type 304. Belows the coating, Kirkendall void formation was noticed. Nevertheless, a dramatic improvement of sulfidation resistance was achieved by sputter-depositing Nb-2 Ni-Al-Si layer on the stainless steel 304.

The laser-induced plasma affects greatly on the results of welding process. moreover selective evaporation loss of alloying elements leads to change in chemical composition of weld metal as well as the mechanical properties of welded joint. this study was undertaken to obtain a fundamental knowledge of pulsed laser welding phenomena especially evaporation mechanism of different aluminum alloys. The intensities of molecular spectra of AlO and MgO were different each other depeding on the power density of a laser beam Under the low power density condition the MgO band spectrum was predominant in intensity while the AlO spectra became much stronger with an increase in the power density. These behaviors have been attributed to the difference in evaporation phenomena of Al and Mg metals with different boiling points and latent heats of vaporization. The time-averaged plasma temperature and electron number density were determined by spectroscopic methods and consequently the obtained temperature was $3,280{\pm}150K$ and the electron number density was $1.85{\times}10^{19}\;l/m^3$.

The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine has advantage for reducing the NOx and P.M. simultaneously. Therefore, HCCI engine is receiving attention as a low emission diesel engine concept. This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of combustion and exhaust emission for operating conditions in a direct injection type of HCCI engines such as supercharged and naturally aspirated using diesel fuel and additive. From the experimental result, we found that cool flame was always appeared and also it was difficult to control combustion characteristics by changing the injection timing in HCCI. In addition, at the lean air-fuel ratio and high speed range, it was observed that charging air pressure, additive or increasing intake air temperature is effective to increase combustion performance and reduce exhaust emission. We concluded that chemical reaction by the increasing intake air temperature or additive without physical improvement has limitation for reduction of exhaust emission.

In this study, adiabatic temperature rise of concrete depending on binder compositions and CGS contents is studied to provide informations for CGS low-heating aggregate and mixture designs for upper and lower placement lifts. Test nresults indicate that it is desirable to apply the combination of binders between top and bottom lift. For top lift, SESC or ESC is recommended, and for bottom lift, FAC+CGS 50 % is good for material composition.

The $PM_{2.5}$ samples were obtained from coal combustion with the four different combustion temperatures (550, 700, 900 and $1100^{\circ}C$) to understand chemical composition in carbonaceous aerosol. OC concentration was the highest when the combustion temperature was $550^{\circ}C$, while, the highest concentration for EC was shown at $700^{\circ}C$ of the coal combustion temperature. However, OC concentrations were very low and EC was not detected when the temperature was over $900^{\circ}C$. It indicates complete combustion was achieved when the combustion temperature was over $900^{\circ}C$. For six groups of organic compounds, n-alkanes and n-alkanoic acids were predominant at all of the combustion temperature in smoke of coal combustion, while, PAHs was only detected at $550^{\circ}C$. The diagnostic ratios of PAHs calculated in this study were 0.59 for Fluoranthene/(Fluoranthene+Pyrene), reflecting the characteristics of coal combustion. The Carbon number Preference Index (CPI) values of n-alkanes which ranged from 0.9 to 1.3 also showed the characteristics of coal combustion.

Carrot leaves have many nutrients as well as roots, which will increase the demand for carrot leaves in the future. This study was carried out by dividing into two stages: high temperature and low temperature periods, in order to investigate the possibility of cultivation of carrot leaves and the composition and EC of the nutrient solution for growth and quality of carrot leaves. Composition of nutrient solution($NO_3-N:16.0$, $NH_4-N:1.0$, P: 1.0, K: 11.0, Ca: 2.0, Mg: 1.0, $SO_4-S:1.0mM{\cdot}L^{-1}$) developed by analysis of plant. In the high temperature range (From June $29^{th}$ to Sep. $8^{th}$, 2016), the concentration of the developed nutrient solution (JNU) were 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and $4.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ and the concentration of nutrient solution of Japanese Horticultural Station(JHS) $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ was used for comparison. In the low temperature range (From Dec. $31^{st}$, 2015 to Feb. $29^{th}$, 2016), the concentration of the developed nutrient solution 1.0, 2.0, and $3.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ were used. Growth was investigated in root fresh and dry weights, shoot fresh and dry weights, leaf number, and leaf area of carrot. In the high temperature range, the leaf area and shoot fresh and dry weights were good at 1.0 and $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. The sugar content of the root was the highest at the EC $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$, and the chlorophyll content was the highest at the EC $4.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. In the low temperature range, The shoot fresh and dry weights were the highest at EC 1.0 and $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. There was no significant difference in sugar content and chlorophyll content. As a result, from the viewpoint of growth and quality of carrot, it is good to cultivate EC 1.0 and $2.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ in high temperature period and low temperature period, but EC $1.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ is economical perspective such as fertilizer input.

In this paper, we prepared a metal alloy resistor with stable thermal electro motive force (thermal EMF) as well as a low temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) by adjusting the manganese proportion from 3 to 12 wt% in the Cu-Mn-Ni alloy. Composition of the fabricated metal alloy was investigated using energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. The TCR of each sample was measured as 44.56, 40.54, 35.60, and 31.56 ppm for Cu-3Mn-2Ni, Cu-5Mn-2Ni, Cu-10Mn-2Ni, and Cu-12Mn-2Ni, respectively. All the resistor samples were available for the F grade (${\pm}1%$ of the allowable error of resistance) high-precision resistor. All the samples satisfied the baseline of high thermal EMF (under 3 mV at $60^{\circ}C$); however, Cu-3Mn-2Ni and Cu-5Mn-2Ni satisfied the baseline of low thermal EMF (under 0.3 mV at $25^{\circ}C$). We were thus able to design and fabricate the metal alloy resistor of Cu-3Mn-2Ni and Cu-5Mn-2Ni to have low TCR and stable thermal EMF at the same time.

This paper addresses the problems of using anti-freeze lubricants for different machines that must function at extremely low temperatures during winter operation in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). We discuss the possibility of obtaining anti-freeze base oils from Talakan crude oil, an area with major oil and gas deposits of the Republic of Sakha, and also provide the trade and technological classification of Talakan crude oil. We propose two different schemes for processing Talakan crude oil: the fuel scheme (obtaining light and heavy fractions as a fuel oil) and the base oil scheme (obtaining light fractions and base oils). We investigate the influence of pour point depressants on alkyl-methacrylate base on the low-temperature properties of the fractions obtained from Talakan crude oil and Korean base oils, and establish the optimal concentration of pour point depressants. We compare the properties of these fractions with the low-temperature properties of Korean base oils and find that the commercial oil "Ravenol 0W-40" provides optimistic results. We obtain oil with a pour point of minus $50^{\circ}C$ and a viscosity index greater than 100. The Design of Experiment was used to establish the optimum composition of the pour point depressants and the base oil S-8 to obtain lubricant oil with a kinematic viscosity of 17 cSt, viscosity index of 208, and a pour point of minus $64^{\circ}C$.
