A recent trend of technical development in auxiliary-power-supplies (APS) is to replace 60Hz low frequency transformers with isolated type dc/dc converters. This paper introduces the technical trend in APS structures and proposes a power converter circuit suitable for high-efficient and light-weight APS. By utilizing the resonant converter, which achieves ZCS, to reduce switching losses, various types of APS structures (1-stage and 2-stage) are reviewed, and they are verified by simulation. The full-bridge resonant LLC converter is designed with a 1-stage power converting structure; the resonant converter topology is designed with a 2-stage power converting structure that has a pre-regulator converter to compensate for the wide input voltage range. Both a step-down converter and a step-up converter are designed and compared for the pre-regulator in the 2-stage structure. Operational characteristics are compared with simulation results and loss analyses are presented to proposes appropriate system structure and topologies.

According to the existing research result on the seabed organic sediment, pollutants from the land and the sea contaminate the coastal water and sediment on the seabed. To tackle this problem, we need to dredge organic sediment. In the present paper, the development of removing system of seabed sediment by the difference of water head is researched by experimental method. For the validation of the decompression system, computations for validation are carried out for sediment removing equipment. The performance of inhalation equipment is analysed by some model tests.

동물성 오일을 이용한 바이오디젤 생산 반응 후 미반응된 메탄올과 염기촉매의 처리에 관한 연구로써 바이오디젤의 순도에 영향을 미친다. 메탄올과 염기촉매는 바이오디젤 생산 반응 후 상층인 메틸 에스터 층과 하층인 글리세롤 층에 각각 포함되어 있다. 1차적으로 각각의 층에서 메탄올을 증발하게 되며 메탄올 증발은 감압 증류 장치를 이용해 분리하게 된다. BD100을 기준으로 하여 메탄올의 함량은 0.2% 이하여야 하며 수분 함량은 0.05% 이하를 유지해야 한다. 메탄올 증발은 메탄올의 끓는 온도인 $65^{\circ}C$를 기준으로 하여 끓는점 보다 낮은 온도와 높은 온도에서 각각 증발을 실시하고 각각의 메탄올 증발 제거에 따른 FAME 함량에 미치는 영향에 대해 FAME 함량 분석을 통해 조사하였으며 메탄올 증발 후 증류수를 이용한 바이오디젤 내 잔류 촉매 및 자유 글리세린 세정 제거에 대해 조사하였다. 증류수 양과 증류수 온도 및 세정 시간에 따른 FAME 함량 변화를 알아보았으며 세정 후 증류수 증발에 따른 FAME 함량 변화에 대해서 분석을 실시하였다. 본 실험을 통해 동물성 오일을 이용한 바이오디젤 생산 후처리 공정인 메탄올 증발 및 세정, 수분 증발 공정의 최적 조건을 도출하고자 하였다.

This study has been carried out to investigate the cooling ability improvement of diecasting mold by decompression cooling system. The decompression cooling system was applied to the new/used oil pump cover molds. The temperature of the surface mold applied the decompression cooling system fell to 15 degrees, especially in case of the used mold. The defect ratio of the oil pump cover manufactured by decompression cooling system has decreased from 2.8 percent to 0.2 percent. According to the results of the cooling ability improvement of diecasting mold by decompression cooling system, the decompression degree and supply pressure were set up the control item to apply the decompression cooling system to the diecasting mold in the industry field.

We retrospectively reviewed a series of 20 patients treated with delayed sternal closure during a 5-year period from 1991 to 1996. Of the 2675 patients with cardiovascular su gery 20 underwent this procedure. Male and female ratio was 11:9, mean age was 6.4 months(range 7 days to 5 years). The indications included unstable hemodynamic profiles after open heart surgery due to myocardial edema and poor lung compliance(15), necessity of mechanical ventricular assist device due to weaning failure(3), and hypoxia after PAB(2). Sternum was closed at a mean interval of 102(range 4 to 213) hours after operation. During delayed sternal closure, central venous pressure was elevated(p<0.05). Mediastinitis and other wound problems did not occur. Sepsis developed in 2 patients and microorganism was confirmed in one of the two patients. Five patients died(mortality 25%). And two of 15 discharged patients died during follow-up period. Cumulative survival rate was 65.0% at 12 months and also 65.0% at 24 months.(Standard error was 10.7%) Delayed sternal closure Is considered to be a good method to decompress the hemodynamically compromised heart. Without that, it is not f asible to come off bypass or to decompress the heart. Of course. careful selection of the indication is imperative.

Best-estimate thermal-hydraulic codes, CATHARE2 V1.2 and RELAP5/MOD3, hate been assessed against the BETHSY 6.2 tc six-inch cold leg break loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) test. Main objective is to analyze the overall capabilities of the two codes on physical phenomena of concern during the small break LOCA i.e. two-phase critical flow, depressurization, core water level de-pression, loop seal clearing, liquid holdup, etc. The calculation results show that the too codes predict well both in the occurrences and trends of major two-phase flow phenomena observed. Especially, the CATHARE2 calculations show better agreements with the experimental data. However, the two codes, in common, show some deviations in the predictions of loop seal clearing, collapsed core water level after the loop seal clearing, and accumulator injection behaviors. The discrepancies found from the comprision with the experimental data are larger in the RELAP5 results than in the CATHARE2. To analyze the deviations of the two code predictions in detail, several sensitivity calculations have been performed. In addition to the change of two-phase discharge coefficients for the break junction, fine nodalization and some corrections of the interphase drag term are made. For CATHARE2, the change of interphase drag force improves the mass distribution in the primary side. And the prediction of SG pressure is improved by the modification of boundary conditions. For RELAP5, any single input change doesn't improve the whole result and it is found that the interphase drag model has still large uncertainties.

Background and Purpose : This study serves the purpose to present the effective way on back pain therapy for women during their pregnancy by comparing and analyzing the effects influencing on pain index, limits on daily life, and diminution of lumbar curve, when having treated for 6 weeks, dividing into therapy group, applied by decompression therapy on spine without unnecessary effects on the pregnant women and their fetus and the existent general physiotherapy group, applied on diminution of their back pain. Subject & methods : We made impregnate women of 30(25${\sim}$34years), as the subject of this study, who understood, and agreed with, this study, among pregnant women who were diagnosed as back pain. Pain intensity, limit index on daily life, and lumbar curve test, prior to experiment was implemented as paired t－test, comparison of the difference of average by each group before and after experiment was analysed as independent t－test, and statistical examination level was set up as 0.05. Results : The difference of average of pain and limit on daily life between the group, SDTG(spinal decompression therapy group), and the group, GPTG(general physical therapy group), before and after experiment was diminished as much as 44.4% and 16.79% each after completed 6 weeks' experiment, limit on daily life in both groups showed as much as 37.2% and 21.5% each, in the end, they statistically showed conspicuous difference(p<.05). Comparison of lumbar curves between both groups, SDTG and GPTG, before and after experiment, were diminished from -23.13${\pm}$4.85 to -15.66${\pm}$3.71, and there was no remarkable difference(p<.05). Conclusion : As, in this study, decompression therapy is more effective than general physical therapy with pregnancy low back pain in pain, limitation of daily life, lumbar curve.

Dentigerous cyst is a cyst arising by tissue fluid accumulation between the enamel and the residual enamel epithelium. It includes the crown of the impacted tooth and excludes the root. The treatments of the dentigerous cyst are enucleation, marsupialization, decompression, surgical excision and etc. In these cases children were evaluated for the chief complaints of the remained mandibular primary second molar. Each cases showed swelling on the buccal side of the primary secondary premolar. In the radiologic evaluation a radiolucent lesion including the crown of the mandibular secondary premolar was found, and it was diagnosed as dentigerous cyst. And the histopathologic examination showed the same result. Marsupialization was operated through alveolar socket and the alveolar socket was protected with vaseline gauze, the obturator combined with space maintainer was followed by the operation. After the operation, the impacted permanent tooth was showing faster eruption speed than the other normal teeth.
