The aim of this study was to optimize the manufacturing condition of spreadable modified butter by RSM. Based on the central composite design, the degree of optimization was expressed as a SFC as a dependent variable (Y, %) determined by NMR with 23 experimental groups. Three independent variables were the contents of butter ($X_1$, 35-75%), the contents of grape seed oil ($X_2$, 15-35%), and the contents of hydrogenated soybean oil ($X_3$, 0-4%). As the result, SFC at $10^{\circ}C$ was ranged from 32.37 to 42.76%. In addition, the regression coefficients were calculated for SFC at $10^{\circ}C$ by RSREG. The regression model equation for the SFC was $Y=39.18-0.04X_1X_3$. Consequently, the optimal contents for manufacturing spreadable modified butter were determined as 55.18% for butter, 40.78% for grape seed oil, and 4.08% for hydrogenated soybean oil, respectively. The predicted response value for SFC at $10^{\circ}C$ was 30.20%, comparable to the actual experimental SFC value as 29.85%. Finally hardness and spreadability in reference butter and spreadable modified butter produced under the optimal conditions was measured. The hardness in spreadable modified butter was 31.80 N as compared to 69.92 N in reference butter. The spreadability in spreadable modified butter was 5.6 point as compared to reference butter. This difference may be due to the contents of solid fat by butter and hydrogenated soybean oil. This study showed that the SFC value at $10^{\circ}C$ could be a suitable indicator for the manufacturing spreadable modified butter to predict important attributes such as mouth feel, hardness and spreadability.

This study interested on management of broodstock and the effect of raise the temperature for promotion of maturity in Tresus keenae. For management of broodstock, we performed indoor and outdoor culture. In addition, broodstock was put in exposure and immersion condition. This experimental design is aimed at knowing the optimal management of broodstock. In addition, we investigated the promotion of maturity, growth and survival rate when raise the temperature of the breeding seawater of broodstock in winter season. Result that, the management of broodstock was shown to be more effective obesity and survival rate in outdoor culture than indoor culture. In addition, there is no anthropogenic food supply in management and it is easy to management because it is kept under natural environmental conditions. Therefore, It is considered appropriate to management to outdoor culture. In raise the temperature, survival rate was lower in the experimental group than in the control group. However, obesity was significantly increased compared with the control group. Also, gonad showed that the sex maturity was promoted. If sex maturation is not developed due to seasonal water temperature, the promotion of sexual maturity through heating is considered to be an effective method in terms of artificial seed production.

Tartary buckwheat is a grain with many flavonoids, such as rutin, quercetin, kaempferol, and myricetin. This study aimed to optimize extraction conditions to maximize the rutin, quercetin, and myricetin contents of tartary buckwheat sprout extracts using response surface methodology. A BoxBehnken design containing 15 experiments was employed to evaluate the effects of extraction conditions, such as temperature (X1, 50~70℃), extraction time (X2, 5~9 hr), and ethanol concentration (X3, 60~90%). The coefficients of determination (R2) for all the dependent variables (extraction temperature, extraction time, and extraction ethanol concentration) were determined to be over 0.95, indicating significance. The p-value of the model in lack of fit was over 0.1 than means, indicating that the model was well predicted. The optimal extraction conditions for rutin, quercetin, and myricetin contents were obtained at X1 = 51.03, X2 = 6.62, and X3 = 69.16, respectively. Under these optimal conditions, the predicted rutin, quercetin, and myricetin contents were 808.467 ㎍/ml, 193.296 ㎍/ml, and 37.360 ㎍/ml, respectively. For the validation of the model, ten experiments were performed and the experimental rutin and quercetin contents were measured at 802.84±8.49 ㎍/ml, 193.76±2.80 ㎍/ml, and 34.84±0.43 ㎍/ml, respectively. The experimental rutin and quercetin contents were similar to the predicted contents, but the experimental myricetin content was lower than predicted.

A numerical method and experiments for the aerodynamic design of high performance two-stage axial flow fans was carried out. A vortex ring element method used for the aerodynamic analysis of the propellers was extended to the fan-duct system. Fan Performance and velocity profiles at the fan inlet and outlet are compared with experimental data for the validations of numerical method. Performance test was done based on KS B 6311(testing methods for turbo-fans and blowers). The velocity profile was obtained using a 5-hole pitot tube by the non-nulling method. The two stage axial flow fan configurations for the optimal operation conditions were set by using the experimental results for the single rotating axial flow fan and the single stage axial flow fan. The single rotating axial flow fan showed relatively low efficiency due to the swirl velocities behind rotor exit which produced pressure losses. In contrast, the single stage and the two-stage axial flow fans showed performance improvements due to the swirl velocity reduction by the stator. The peak efficiency of the two stage axial flow fan was improved by 21% and 6%, compared to the single rotating axial flow fan and the single stage axial flow fan, respectively.

This investigation is the result of the structural analysis by finite element method and test for considering stress distribution and stress concentration to be generated according to the change of attached shape and method of the bracket to pipe in welding structure. Generally, members that consist structures are subjected to various forces and are jointed each other with a number of bracket. In this case, circular pipe was adapted in order to weld these members easily and to study the optimal design which is used a beam with shape section as main components of the structure, According to attached shape and method, distributed stress on circular pipe is appeared so differently. This may result deeply effects with respect to thickness, material properties. So a study on attaching shape and method of bracket to circular pipe is needed. In this paper, to obtain the maximum equivalent stress or stress concentration was used experimental and F.E.M. analysis. First five parameter was defined with respect to attached a shape and method to circular pipe i.e. the variation of the attached area, the variation of the attached shape, the variation of the attached length, the variation of both directin angles, the variation of the upper angle. Afterward the experimental analysis was practiced as the variation of the both direction angel and the finite element analysis was practiced as each parameters. We can discover stress distribution and stress concentration according to the change of form of bracket. And the result can be referenced for a design of similar structure.

In this paper, the wearing characteristics of current collecting shoes, interruption phenomena and contact resistances between collecting shoes and conductor rails are established as design parameters for development of the third rail current collector. An experimental analysis for established design parameters is performed as the materials of current collector shoe, contact force, sliding velocity and contact condition(dry/wet condition) between current collectors shoe and conductor rails. As a result of this study, the magnitude of contact force is in proportion to the amount of wear in the collecting shoe, but is in inverse proportion to the interruption and contact resistance between the collecting shoe and the conductor rail. And optimal values of design parameters are pre sented through analyzing the experimental results of the amount of wear, interruption and contact resistance.

For the recovery of industrial waste heat, a chemical heat transformer based on the reversible reaction between metal chlorides and ammonia gas was designed and a pilot scale unit of 1 kW-1hr was developed. A static calculation, which determined the amount of reacting materials and operating condition of system, and dynamic simulations were performed for the optimal design. The temperature and output power of generator in the system were varying with the amount of salt and heat exchange area. Optimum conditions such as the amount of salt-graphite, apparent density and size of mechanical unit were determined by the dynamic simulation for the system. According to the operating cycle of 4 stages, experimental results of temperature and output power were well agreed with the simulation values. This chemical heat transformer is turned out to be a very promising system for recovery of industrial waste heat because of its effective feature of lifting temperature.

This study was conducted to examine an artificial recharge system, which was considered to be an alternative for securing additional groundwater resources in a high-density greenhouse region. An injection well with a depth of 14.0 m was placed in an alluvial plain of the zone. Eight monitoring wells were placed in a shape of dual circles around the injection well. Aquifer tests showed that the aquifer was comprised with high-permeable layer with hydraulic conductivities of 1.5×10^-3~2.4×10^-2 cm/sec and storage coefficients of 0.07~0.10. A step injection test resulted in a specific groundwater-level rising (Sr/Q) values of 0.013~0.018 day/㎡ with 64~92% injection efficiencies. Results of the constant-rate injection test with an optimal injection rate of 100 ㎥/day demonstrated an enormous storage capacity of the alluvial aquifer during ten experimental days. To design an optimal recharge system for an artificial recharge, the high-permeable layer should be isolated by dual packers and suitable pressure should be applied to the injection well in order to store water. An anisotropy ratio of the alluvial aquifer was evaluated to be approximately 1.25 : 1 with an anisotropy angle of 71 degrees, indicating intervals among injection wells are almost the same.

Digital controllers found in many industrial real-time systems consist of a number of interacting periodic tasks. To sustain the required control quality, these tasks possess the maximum activation periods as performance constraints. An essential step in developing a real-time system is thus to assign each of these tasks a constant period such that the maximum activation requirements are met while the system utilization is minimized [1]. Given a task graph design allowing producer/consumer relationships among tasks [2], resource demands of tasks, and range constraints on periods, the period assignment problem falls into a class of nonlinear optimization problems. This paper proposes a ploynomial time approximation algorithm which produces a solution whose utilization does not exceed twice the optimal utilization. Our experimental analysis shows that the proposed algorithm finds solutions which are very close to the optimal ones in most cases of practical interest.

Zinc white is mainly used as a mild astringent, protectant. and has weak antiseptic action. It is well known that the yield of zinc white produced is greatly affected by the syn thetic conditions such as the reactant concentration, reaction temperature, washing water temperature, mole ratio of reactants, and drying temperature, calcination temperature, etc. The purpose of this study is to investigate the optimal synthesis conditions of zinc white produced. A randomized complete block design suggested by G.E.P. Box and K.B. Wilson was applied for this purpose. Basic zinc carbonate was prepared by reacting zinc sulfate and sod. carbonate solution in this study. Zinc white comes when prepared by calcination of basic zinc carbonate. The optimum synthesis conditions of zinc white obtained from this study is as follows: 1) The reacting temperature range is: 92-100$^{\circ}C$, 2) The concentration of reactant solution is 23.6-27%, 3) The optimum mole-ratio: [ZnSO4]/[Na2CO3] is 1.74~1.96, 4) The washing water temperature is 36$^{\circ}C$, 5) The drying temperature range is 68-74$^{\circ}C$, 6) The calcination temperature is 600$^{\circ}C$. The outcome of DSC indicated a desolvation of basic zinc carbonate occurred at about 133.3$^{\circ}C$. The dehydration of the compound ceased at about 267.9$^{\circ}C$ and the decarboxylation ceased at about 379.9$^{\circ}C$. The physical and chemical properties of zinc white as medicine were studied by use of Volume Test.
