This study was to determine the characteristics of vapor-permeable waterproof finished fabric by the coating method. 4 different kinds of coating fabrics (A : wet, porous, polyurethane, B : dry, no porous, polyurethane, C : shape memory polyurethane and D : dry, porous polyurethane) were used, which were developed recently With this sample, moisture transport rate ($40^{\circ}C$, 45%RH & $40^{\circ}C$, 95%RH), changes of coating side's shape by washing times, water repellency rate, contracted length, qmax, heat conductivity, heat keeping rate, heat keeping rate with cotton, heat keeping rate on humidity temperature and humidity within clothing etc. were checked. And it was done in a climate chamber under $20{\pm}2^{\circ}C$, $65{\pm}5%RH$. The results of this study were as follow; In the moisture vapor transmission of sample B and C increased on high temperature and high humidity while sample A and D decreased, on this condition. Qmax rate had high relation with ground fabric's surface properties and the order was A>C>D>B. Heat conductivity had high relation with thickness and surface properties. Heat keeping rates on sweat condition showed around half percents of heat keeping rates on normal condition, but had no relation with moisture vapor transport rate. Changes of the fabric's properties by washing times were different in accordance with the construction of fabrics and the coating resin. Sample C had tow heat keeping rate on the high temperature and humidity and high heat keeping rate on the low temperature and humidity Moisture transport rate of vapor-permeable waterproof finished fabrics had high relation with the properties of ground fabrics on low humidity condition, but on the high humidity condition, it was highly related with the properties of coating resin.

Dimethyl ether (DM) is one of the most attractive alternative fuel far compression ignition engine. Its main advantage in diesel engine application is high efficiency of diesel cycle with soot free combustion though conventional fuel injection system has to be modified due to the intrinsic properties of DME. Experimental study of DME and conventional diesel spray employing a common-rail type fuel injection system with a 5-holes sac type injector (hole diameter 0.168 ㎜/hole) was performed in a high pressure chamber pressurized with nitrogen gas. A CCD camera was employed to capture time series of spray images followed by spray cone angles and penetrations of DME were characterized and compared with those of diesel. Under atmospheric pressure condition, regardless of injection pressure, spray cone angles of the DME were wider than those of diesel and penetrations were shorter due to flash boiling effect. Tip of the DME spray was farmed in mushroom like shape at atmospheric chamber pressure but it was disappeared in higher chamber pressure. On the contrary, spray characteristics of the DME became similar to that of diesel under 3MPa of chamber pressure. Hole-to-hole variation of the DME spray was lower than that of diesel in both atmospheric and 3MPa chamber pressures. At 25MPa and 40MPa of DME injection pressures, regardless of chamber pressure, intermittent DME spray was observed. It was thought that vapor lock inside the injector was generated under the two injection pressures.

Self-blast circuit breakers utilize the energy dissipated by the arc itself to create the required conditions for arc quenching during the current zero. The high-current simulation provides information about the mixing process of the hot PTFE cloud with $SF_6$ gas which is difficult to access for measurement. But it is also hard to simulate flow phenomenon because the flow in interrupter with high current, $SF_6$-PTFE mixture vapor and complex physical behavior including radiation, calculation of electric field. Using a commercial computational fluid dynamics(CFD) package, the conservation equation for the gas and temperature, velocity and electric fields within breaker can be solved. Results show good agreement between the predicted and measured pressure rise in the thermal chamber.

The rf plasma chemical vapor deposition is a common method employed for diamond or amorphous carbon deposition. Diamond possesses the strongest bonding, as exemplified by a number of unique properties-extraordinary hardness, high thermal conductivity, and a high melting tempera tore. Therefore, it is very important to investigate the synthesis of semiconducting diamond and its use as semiconductor devices. An inductively coupled rf plasma CVD system for producing amorphous carbon films were developed. Uniform temperature and concentration profiles are requisites for the deposition of high quality large-area films. The system consists of rf matching network, deposition chamber, pumping lines for gas system. Gas mixtures with methane, and hydrogen have been used and Si (100) wafers used as a substrate. Amorphous carbon films were deposited with methane concentration of 1.5% at the process pressure of S torr~20 torr, and process temperature of about $750^{\circ}C$. The nucleation and growth of the amorphous carbon films have been characterized by several methods such as SEM and XRD.

An experimental study of hot filament chemical vapor deposition(HFCVD) has been carried out for the fabrication of diamond thin film. Of particular interest is the measurement of deposition uniformity on large substrates. Experimental apparatus including a vacuum chamber, heating elements, etc. has been designed and manufactured. Deposition profiles for different pretreatment powders and different flow rates have been measured in conjunction with the measurement of substrate temperature distribution on a large substrate surface. As the flow rate increases, deposition rate increases, however, the crystallinity becomes worse. Higher growth rate has been found on the region closer to the center location where substrate temperature is higher. The crystallinity has been improved as gas flow rate decreases. The growth rate and morphology of deposition were identified by SEM and the existence of diamond phase was proved by Raman spectroscopy.

Recently, the new refrigerating system, using non - fluorinated hydrocarbon refrigerants has to be developed for the agricultural fields. One of that kinds of systems is the cooling system using the water vapor and vacuum, in which the water evaporate at the low temperature under vacuum and absorb the large amount of the latent heat. If vapor with large amount of latent heat is removed from the system, the system is cooled accordingly. The characteristics of cooling under the vacuum was observed and measured using experimental apparatus, which is consisted of vacuum chamber, the ejectors, the pumps and the measurement apparatus. As the results of experiments, we know that the evaporation in the vacuum occurs vigorously when the materials to be cooled has more amounts of heat before cooling, and by which effects the materials can be cooled. The cooling vacuum system is more efficient than other methods when the agricultural products is chilled or dried.

In this work, the study on the $SiO_2$ film non-uniformity by PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) was performed. Plasma diagnostics was analyzed by a DLP(Double Langmuir Probe) and a probe-type QMS(Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer) in order to investigate the spatial distribution of the plasma species in the chamber. The relationship between the plasma species and the depositing rate of the films was examined. On the basis of this work, it was confirmed that O radical density mainly contributed to the increase in the depositing rate of the $SiO_2$ films and the electron temperature in the plasma had a main effect on the formation of the oxygen radicals.

The characteristics of liquefied butane spray are expected to be different from conventional diesel fuel spray, because a kind of flash boiling spray is expected when the back pressure is below the saturated vapor pressure of the butane(0.23MPa at 298K). The ambient pressure was held at a pressure above(0.37MPa) and below(0.15MPa) the fuel vapor pressure. The axial velocities, radial velocities, and size distributions in butane sprays were measured with PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) system. The PDPA measurement showed a smaller SMD at the 0.15MPa chamber pressure, compared to the 0.37MPa case. Log-hyperbolic density function for the droplets size distribution can be fitted to the experimental results of a liquefied butane spray.

This paper presents a mathematical model and simulation of the micro-actuator based on thermally induced liquid-vapor phase-change in a partially-filled closed cavity. The volume expansion by liquid-vapor Phase change can generate considerable forces and displacement $({\sim}50{\mu}m)$ required for commercial use. For optimum operation involving many cycles within the closed chamber, active(thermoelectric) heating and cooling is used. The optimization of the system is conducted according to the parameters such as input power and response time. The optimized performance of micro-actuator is reasonable compared to other actuators.

The paper presents the fabrication and test of a micro scent injector module. A micro scent injector module consists of an injector fabricated by micromachining, a scent cartridge and a controller. If a scent injection signal triggers the controller, it heats the scent liquid in the injector chamber and a scent liquid is vaporized. The increased vapor pressure opens a normally closed boss valve, and the scent vapor is injected through the opened nozzle. The liquid volume injected by the fabricated module is about $1\muell$ for one second at 2 W.
