Abstract:
This thesis addresses some important issues when designing microfluidic systems for hot pressurized water. The properties and behavior of water at elevated temperatures and in micro scale is briefly reviewed, and opportunities and possible problems of using hot pressurized water in microfluidic devices are brought up. Experimental work was focused on corrosion resistance for commonly used microsystem materials in hot pressurized water, and the microfluidic behavior for hot pressurized water. An experiment system was successfully designed, assembled and used for corrosion resistance experiments

Hot water thermal energy stores have the potential to improve and extend the performance of many kinds of energy system. Waperature stratification in the store is likely to affect the system's efficiency.

碩士<br>南開科技大學<br>電子工程研究所<br>105<br>As electronic technology changes rapidly, there is still much to be improved for old products with the introduction of new technologies, materials and processes. With regards to water heater, not only constant temperature controlled by microprocessor, the remote controller is also designed for adjusting temperature conveniently, so each member of the family can set the temperature easily on demand.   In this paper, we propose a ZigBee based remote controller for water heater, which is a pilot study for commercialization. By analyzing the wired remote control i

碩士<br>嘉南藥理科技大學<br>溫泉產業研究所<br>99<br>ABSTRACT This study focused on the assessment of Hot Spring and its water quality in Taiwan. In statistics, there is around a hundred hot springs all over the country. In this research, around fifty hot springs were subjected to monitoring. In assessing the water quality, pH, temperature, conductivity, mineral content, total dissolved solids, and ORP were monitored. Samples were brought into the laboratory for analysis. The plants surrounding the hot spring have also been surveyed. This is to contribute for further assessment of the hot spring. Mineral cont
