In the study, the effect of the ultrasonic energy in transportational diesel fuel on the engine performance and exhaust emission has been investigated for indirect injection diesel engine. It was tested to estimated change of engine performance and exhaust emission characteristics for the transportational diesel fuels and the reforming fuels which was irradiated by the ultrasonic energy. The results of the study may be concluded as follows; By the irradiation of ultrasonic energy on the diesel fuel, cylinder pressure, heat release rate and engine power were increased but bsfc, mass fraction burned, and smoke were reduced. Also, the combustion was more stabilized and became complete and NOx was increased.

In this study, flame retardancy of polyurethane foam and phenolic foam were investigated by addition of phosphorous flame retardants. The thermal degradation behavior of polyurethane foam and phenolic foam in the presence of flame retardants has been studied by thermogravimetric analysis(TGA). Heat release rate(HRR), mean HRR, mass loss rate(MLR), total smoke released(TSR) and limited oxygen index(LOI) were tested by cone calorimeter. From the test results, Phenolic foam showed low HRR, MLR and TSR than polyurethane foam.

The current status of Performance-Based Design (PBD) implemented in 4 wide areas (Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon and Busan) over the past 5 years was reviewed with regard to the number of PBD implementation and target buildings. Then, detailed status related to fire scenarios, input information for fire simulation, and grid size were analyzed with the pre-review for the PBD. As a result, the domestic PBD was mainly applied to the mixed occupancy. In the fire simulations performed on the identical fire scenario and fire space, the maximum heat release rate (HRR) varied significantly depending on the PBD designer. Various combustibles were also considered for the identical fire source, and their combustion properties also showed considerable uncertainty. In addition, the applicability of accurate input information for predictive models of heat and smoke detectors was examined. Finally, the average grid size for the fire simulation using Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) was analyzed, and the improvement of PBD to minimize designer dependency was proposed.

Fire has developed from the inter-action of heat at the early state and it is very difficult to estimate the magnitude of the fire. Cone Calorimeter can obtain the important material properties from the exposed part of it. It can be contained that ignition, loss of mass, heat release rate, smoke generation, and gas analysis. The purpose of this study is emphasize on the properties of structural steels in terms of physical, mechanical and that will be important way to build the databases of fire safety.

본 연구에서는 건축외장용 접착제의 발연특성을 알아보기 위해 접착제를 용도별로 구분하여 연기밀도시험기를 이용해 최대연기밀도와 초기발생연기밀도를 알아보았다. 실험 결과 창호전용 접착제가 586초에 509.64로 가장 많은 연기밀도를 발생하였으며, 석재용 275.63, 목공용 232.25의 순으로 많은 양의 연기가 발생하였고, 타일용 18.65, 스티로폼용 6.44로 최대연기밀도를 나타내었다. 창호전용과 스티로폼용의 경우 최대연기밀도를 나타낸 시간은 비슷한 범위에 나타났으나 연기밀도 값은 스티로폼용에 비해 창호전용 접착제가 80배 가까이 연기가 더 발생하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, the combustion properties, which are called the reaction-to-fire's performance, of sandwich panels were tested and analyzed according to both ISO 5660 (cone calorimeter method) and EN 13823 (SBI). Several variables including ignition time, mass loss, heat release rate, smoke production rate and $O_2$ density about four sandwich panels and four core materials (thermal insulation material) were evaluated. Combustion properties' similarity and difference of sandwich panels and core materials were compared by materials and test methods respectively. Finally test results were evaluated by Japanese standard building code, National Building code of Canada and EN 13501-1 as well.

건축물 내 외벽에 주로 사용되는 건축용 자재 중 샌드위치 패널은 양면으로 도장한 철판 사이에 심재로 단열재를 넣어 구성된 합성복합자재이다. 샌드위치 패널의 사용범위는 창고시설 및 공업용 건축 등의 용도로 많이 사용되고 있으며, 최근에는 시공에 따른 이점으로 주택 및 상업용등으로 널리 확대되어 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 화재초기의 연기밀도는 인명 대피 시 시야확보에 있어 중요한 역할을 하기에 현재 국내에서 사용되는 건축용 외장재를 용도별로 선정하여 시간에 따른 연기밀도의 값을 구하고 용도에 따른 화재 연기의 확산 정도를 예측하는데 목적을 두었다.

Modern residing equipment developed much quantitatively along with economic growth but improvement for agreeable residing space of indoor environment is insufficient situation yet. Also, the latest sick-building syndrome discharging room contaminant such as Formaldehyde, toluene, radon etc. built house or buildings newly human body threaten. Radon of them is real condition that raise origination of lung cancer next to smoke. So, wish to in this research by one of solution way of these problems adsorption performance and specie performance excellent activated carbon to concrete bricks for deconstipating suppository that is room finish fare mix and examine closely after grasp physical, mechanical special quality, hazardous substance and specie performance effect.

In this study, fire simulations were performed to analyze the characteristics of the fire driven flow and the effects of the platform screen door on the smoke flow in the station, when the fire occurred in the center of the platform. Soongsil Univ. station (line number 7, 47m in depth underground) was chosen which was the one of the deepest underground subway stations in the Seoul metro, SMRT. The parallel computational method was employed to compute the heat and mass transfer eqn's with 6 CPUs of the linux clustering machine. The fire driven flow was simulated with using FDS code in which LES method was applied. The Heat release rate was 10MW and The Ultrafast model was applied for the growing model of the fire source. The 10,000,000 structured grids were used.
