Medicated water electrolysis apparatus, which electrolyzes water into acidic water and alkaline water, was in the spotlight as becoming known the effect of alkaline water. It is known as good for health as removing active oxygen in the human's body and promoting digestion. But, the customers could not get that desired water temperature because these apparatuses are directly connected with a water pipe. So, the cooling system was developed for controlling the temperature of the alkaline water. One of the typical way is to store water in water tank and control the temperature. But, in this way, storing water can be polluted impurities coming from outside. For protecting this pollution, the cooling system based on indirect heat exchange method through phase change between water and ice was developed. In this study, we have calculated efficiency of the cooling system with phase change by experiment and commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) code, ANSYS CFX. To consider the effect of latent heat that is generated by melting ice, we have simulated two phase numerical analyses used enthalpy method and found the temperature, velocity, and ice mass distribution for calculating the efficiency of cooling. From the results of numerical analysis, we have obtained the relationship between the cooling efficiency and each design factor.

In this paper, we design and implement a automatic control system of wireless sensor network based sprayer for hog barns. The proposed control system is driven by events from sensor nodes. It gathers various sensor readings such as temperature, humid, water level and water temperature, and controls the sprayer in real time by analyzing the sensor readings. Through experiments, we show that the proposed control system manages temperature and humidity steadily. Our proposed system enhances the existing system about 33% for temperature management and 37.3% for humidity management.

As the sequencing batch reactor process is a time-oriented system, it has advantages of the flexibility in operation for the biological nutrient removal. Because the sequencing batch reactor is operated in a batch system, respiration rate is more sensitive and obvious than in a continuous system. The variation of respiration rate in the process well represented the characteristics of biological reactions, especially nitrification. The respiration rate dropped rapidly and greatly with the completion of nitrification, and the maximum respiration rate of nitrification showed the activity of nitrifiers. This study suggested a strategy to control the aeration of the sequencing batch reactor based on respirometry. Aeration time of the optimal aerobic period required for nitrification was daily adjusted according to the dynamics of respiration rate. The aeration time was mainly correlated with influent nitrogen loadings. The anoxic period was extended through aeration control facilitating a longer endogenous denitrification reaction time. By respirometric aeration control in the sequencing batch reactor, energy saving and process performance improvement could be achieved.

For the investigation of the effects of G. lucidum on prevention and attention of hypercholeste-rolemia and atherosclerosis dietary hypercholesterolemic rats were fed with 2.0g% G. lucidum extracts for 4 weeks. And then concentrations of total cholesterol triglyceride phospholipid in serum and liver and those of HDL-cholesterol lipid peroxide glucose in serum were analyzed. Concentration of total cholesterol in serum was the lowest in the control group(basal diet+ wa-ter) and HDL-cholesterol in serum were significantly higher in groups of control 2(hyperchole-sterolemic ratslongrightarrowbasal+water) and 4(hypercholesterolemic ratslongrightarrowbasal+G.l. extract) The concentration of triglyceride in serum were signficantly lower in groups 4 and 5(hypercholeste-rolemic ratslongrightarrowcholesterol+G. l. extract) than in the control group. Phospholipid content in serum were not significantly different among all groups. Ttal cholesterol in liver was significa-ntly higher in hypercholesterolemic rats than in the control group and triglyceride concentration were signficantly higher in groups of 3(hypercholesterolemic ratslongrightarrowcholesterol+water) and 5 than others. Phospholipid in liver was significantly higher in group 3 than in the control group but groups of 4 and 5 were lower. As for lipid peroxide in serum was the lowest in group 4 and glucose concentration was lowest in group 5 than in other groups.

Utilization of carbon sources by Bacillus cereus D324, a biological control agent, and Pythium species, which causes rice seedling disease, was studied with the objective of increasing the efficacy of biological control by providing the biological control agent with specific beneficial carbon sources. D-galactose, D-sorbitol, and D-mannitol were poor carbon sources for Pythium spp. growth but were good for B. cereus D324 growth. Growth in a growth chamber of rice seeds coated with B. cereus D324 amended with specific carbon sources, such as D-galactose and D-sorbitol, showed significantly enhanced seedling emergence compared to seeds coated only with B. cereus D324. Field trials showed that both seedling emergence and yield increased, when the above specific carbon sources were added to B. cereus D324 in seed coating formulations. This result indicated that amending seed coating formulations with specific carbon sources could significantly increase seedling emergence and yield in the field.

To develop a simulation strategy of multi-reservoir operation in flood season, the single dam operations methed for the Chungju dam are investigated in the Han river basin. Thus, spillway rule curve, rigid ROM, and linear decision rules are applied for control operations, subject to the restrictions imposed by the river and the reservoir characteristics. The storage and release and control/utility efficiencies for several floods are calculated. The variation of control coefficients with respect to the return period are also examined. As the results of this comparative study, the optimal operation method can be selected in terms of the magnitude of flood. With inflow forecasting, the flood control operation can be greatly improved by variable coefficients rigid ROM and linear decision rules.

High lifting devices used for control purposes have received much attention in the marine field. Hydrofoils for supporting the hull, roll stabilizer fins for developing the motion damping performance, rudders for maneuverability are the well-known devices. In the present study, the ability of the rudder with flap to produce high lift was analyzed. The boundary layer control, one of the flow control techniques, was adopted. Especially, to build the blown flap, a typical and representative type of a boundary layer control, a flapped rudder was designed and manufactured so that it could eject the water jet from the gap between the main foil and the flap to the flap surface tangentially. And it was tested in the towing tank. Simultaneously, to know the information about the 2-dimensional flow field, a fin model with similar characteristics as the rudder model applicable for the motion control was made and tested in the cavitation tunnel. In addition, local flow measurements were carried out to obtain physical information, for example, a surface pressure measurement and flow visualization around the flap. And CFD simulation was used to obtain information difficult to collect from the experiment about the 2-dimensional flow.

Annual average precipitation of Korea is 1,277 mm and around 2/3 of annual precipitation and 74 % of available water resources occurred during monsoon period. In recent years, many agricultural reservoirs have been heightened to increase flood control capacity, reduce flooding damage at downstream areas, and provide sustainable environmental flow during drought period. Thus in this study, the flood control effects of heightening of reservoir banks were simulated with HEC-ResSim and HEC-RAS models. These modes were applied to Bonghak reservoir and it was found that flood control effects were 3~4.5 % with 7 -m heightening. Also, with proper operation (1 m lower of full water level) of reservoir right before the monsoon period, flooding at downstream could be prevented even with design storm of 80 -year recurrence interval. As shown in this study, heightening of agricultural reservoir provides positive effects in flood control and flood damage reduction.
