Abstract:
A method for preparing hydrophobic gold nanoparticles includes adding 1,2-dichlorobenzene as a solvent to gold precursor and using oleylamine and oleic acid with volume ratio of 7.5:2.5 to 5:5 as surfactants. The size of the prepared gold nanoparticles can be controlled over a broad range and may be utilized in various fields such as bio-imaging, photonic crystallization, sensors, organic catalysts, surface enhanced raman spectrum, electronic devices, etc. Further, a method for colorimetric detection of a strong acid uses hydrophilic nanoparticles that are phase transited from the prepared hydrophobic gold nanoparticles. Up to 5 ppm of low content hydrochloric acid can be detected utilizing phase transited hydrophilic nanoparticles in the colorimetric detection method, and the gold nanoparticles that were used in the detection of strong acid can be reused without loss of activity through neutralization with bases.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a system and method of predicting the initial cooling of a superconducting magnet, which can predict the change in initial cooling temperature of a superconducting magnet when the superconducting magnet is cooled using an ultra-low refrigerator. In the system and method, the change in cooling temperature of a superconducting magnet can be accurately predicted by classifying influence factors related to the cooling of a superconducting magnet into a plurality of control volumes and inducing a governing equation with respect to each of the control volumes. Based on this system and method, the reliability of basic data required to design an apparatus for measuring a high magnetic field for forming an ultralow-temperature environment can be greatly improved.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an autonomous induction heat exchange method using a pressure difference caused by heat exchange in a single pipeline. In addition, the present invention relates to a gas compressor and a heat pump using the method. The present invention does not require a separate drive device. Therefore, occurrence of vibration or noise can be fundamentally prevented. Consumption of power for compressing gas or heat exchange can be minimized. Furthermore, gas circulates in an autonomous induction manner using a pressure difference. Thus, the length, size and structural shape of a gas compressor or a heat pump can be modified in a variety of ways. Thereby, the present invention can be easily used in different kinds of apparatus and systems and can be easily applied to small heat exchange modules using micro-channels as well as large heat exchange systems.
