We had been conducted to study hydraulic permeability along fracture intersection by NETBLOCK system using natural rock specimen. Since the permeability of this rock specimen fracture is high, it was suggest that turbulent flow might be occurred in available range of measurement system. In case of turbulent flow, estimated permeability and fracture aperture from test data tend to be low. Therefore we should achieve laminar flow. This study was used the high viscosity liquid instead of water, and test conditions which could attain laminar flow with the rock specimen was examined. The rock specimen is granite rock, has natural Y-type fractures intersection. A solution of Methyl-cellulose is used as high viscosity liquid. Due to the high viscosity liquid, hydraulic head could be measured in the wide range, and high viscosity liquid improved the accuracy of measurement. Laminar flow could be achieved in the rock specimen by the high viscosity liquid over 0.1wt%.

Carbon material which is manufactured after high temperature treatment of polymer is one of the candidates for the alternative of platinum cathode catalyst of polymer electrolyte fuel cell. In this study, we examine the influence of potential of oxygen reduction reaction by adding metal including material to polymer, precursor of carbon material. Specifically, 95 wt% of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and 5 wt% of phthalocyanine (Pc) including metal or Pc were mixed. Adding water to this, the mixture of Pc-CMC were prepared. The mixture was irradiated by electron beam up to 100 kGy, dried and treated at 800 degree for 1 h in Ar gas. Then carbon material was manufactured. This was measured by electrochemical measurement. Then oxygen reduction reaction potential was calculated. The carbon material, CMC with Pc including Co has higher potential of 0.1 V than that with Pc including other metal or Pc. This phenomenon is the almost same as that manufactured by other polymer than CMC. It is estimated that Co is contributed to higher potential of oxygen reduction reaction.
