MEMS-based louver and shutter type conventional variable emissivity radiators change their emissivity properties in accordance with a temperature condition to achieve efficient thermal control performance. However, there are some drawbacks such as a structural safety of the mechanical moving parts under sever launch environment and constant power consumption to maintain the intended emissivity. In this study, to overcome above drawbacks, we proposed a MEMS-based variable emissivity radiator, which can change the emissivity property according to the polarity change of electrodes by using electric charge of the bead. The effectiveness of the optimized radiator design has been demonstrated through the comparison of efficiency with the fixed emissivity radiator.

Recently, as Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), communication, and signal surveillance missions of spacecraft have become more advanced, research has been actively conducted on the deployable large mesh antenna system with excellent storage efficiency compared to the deployment area, and light weight. Deployable Mesh antennae are characterized by an increase in the number of Openings Per Inch (OPI), which is a measure of mesh weaving density as the mission frequency band increases, and this OPI change directly affects the thermal optical properties of the mesh antenna, so research on this is required. In this paper, to verify the thermal relationship between the optical properties of the mesh and antenna reflector, thermal sensitivity analysis between the mesh and the antenna reflector is performed by in-orbit thermal analysis with various optical characteristics of the mesh based on existing overseas research cases. In addition, the temperature gradient effect of the mesh reflector is analyzed.

The oil immersion method can be used to create objective lenses with long working distances without sacrificing the focusing resolution for laser processing. In this study, a space in which air or oil can be filled was formed in the middle of a lens for analyzing the optical properties of a liquid-oil immersion lens. As the refractive media, air and oils of different refractive index values (1.2 and 1.5, respectively) were used. A simulation was conducted in the ZEMAX software environment using the ray-tracing technique, and the performance of the oil immersion lens was verified by determining its image distortion and focal length (FL) in each medium. In the case of air, the calculated FL was 0.813 mm, whereas the imaged FLs were 1.594 mm and 8.126 mm when the refraction indices were 1.2 and 1.5, respectively. The FL of an oil immersion lens could be increased considerably. In terms of image distortion, the oil immersion lens exhibited little distortion at the center in all cases, but different degrees of image distortion were observed at different points away from the center depending on the refraction index degree.

캘린더령은 지펼의 표면을 평활하게 하고, 두께를 감소시켜 균일하게 하는 역할을 한다. 그러나 이는 필연적으로 불투명도와 같은 광학적 성질과 인장강도 등의 강도적 성질 의 저하를 유발한다. 따라서 캘린더링 공정변수인 온도, 압력, 속도 등이 종이의 물성에 미 치는 영향을 정확하게 파악하는 것은 캘린더령에 따라 발생할 수 있는 물성 저하를 최소화 하기 위해 필수적으로 요청된다. 본 연구에서는 최근들어 저평량화에 대한 관심이 증가하면 서 그 중요성이 더해지고 있는 불투명도가 캘린더링에 따라 변화되는 양상을 분석하기 위해 서 화상분석 기법을 이용하여 종이의 두께방향 밀도 변이를 평가하고 밀도변이와 불투명도 와의 상관관계를 해석코자 하였다. 또 캘린더링에 따른 불투명도를 저하를 최소화시키기 위 한 캘린더링 조건을 모색하였다. 캘린더링에 의해 발생하는 종이의 두께 변형은 두께방향의 위치에 따라 다르게 나 타난다. 이러한 종이의 두께 방향으로 발생하는 밀도 변이와 이에 따른 불투명도 변화를 평 가하기 위하여 동일한 평량의 종이를 캘린더령 조건을 달리하여 두께방향 밀도변이가 다른 시편을 준비하고 두께 방향 단면을 SEM으로 촬영하였다. 이후 화상분석기를 통해 단면을 이치화하고, 각 픽셀의 흑백 값을 구해 CD방향으로 평균을 내어 두께 방향에 대한 밀도 변 이를 평가하였다. 그 결과 압력보다는 온도를 높여 캘린더링한 경우 종이의 두께 방향 밀도 경사가 커진다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 고온에 의해 표층이 고밀화되고 상대적으 로 내부가 별크해졌기 때문이다. 이러한 밀도 변이가 종이의 광학적 성질인 불투명도에 미 치는 영향을 구명하기 위해서 캘린더링 전후에 두께 및 불투명도를 측정하여 5% 유의수준 에서 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 밀도경사를 지닌 종이의 불투명도를 이론적으로 해석하기 위해 다층 모델을 가정하 고 각 층의 비광산란계수(5)와 비광흡수계수(k)를 달리 부여하고 Kubelka-Munk 이론을 근 거로 하여 이론적 불투명도를 계산하였다. 불투명도에 대한 분석를 통해 동일한 두께 변형 을 가지는 샘플에 대해서 압력보다는 온도를 증가시켜 두께를 감소시키는 캘린더링 처리가 불투명도의 저하를 최소화한다는 것을 확인하였다.

KSLV-I KM plume including alumina particle has been studied using the continuum solver. Alumina particles are assumed to have 7 different diameters, and the specific ratio of the plume gas is assumed to be 1.2, with which the internal nozzle flow characteristics are similar to those of the chemically equilibrium analysis results. The results showed that the expansion angle of the particles is smaller than that of the gas phase, and that the big sized alumina particles are gathered in the plume core and the expansion angles of the big sized particles are smaller than those of the light particles. When the emissivity of the particles are assumed to be 0.1, the radiative heat flux is equivalent to those measured during the flight test of KSLV-I.

A study on optimum design of the lightweight mirror of a satellite camera is presented. An optical surface deformation of the lightweight mirror, which is a principal component of the camera system, is an important factor affecting the optical performance of the whole camera system. In this study, optimum design of the lightweight mirror is presented. Total weight of the mirror to reduce the optical surface deformation and the launching cost is used as an objective function. Peak-to-valley value and natural frequency of the mirror are given as constraints to the optimization problem. The sensitivities of the objective function and constraint are calculated by a finite difference method. The optimization procedure is carried out by the commercial optimizer, DOT. As a verification of the optimum design of the mirror, two design examples are treated. In the real application example, the lightweight mirror with 600mm effective diameter is treated. The optimized results with various design variables, which are obtained by considering thickness limitations, are analyzed.

A numerical analysis has been conducted on the interaction of the thermal radiation and natural convection in a rectangular enclosure filled with a gray fluid. P-1 approximation is adopted for the radiative transfer and its application limit is examined. Considered are the Stark number effect, the optical thickness effect and the wall emissivity effect on the flow and heat transfer characteristics. As the Stark number increase or the optical thickness decreases, the boundary layer thickness and the flow velocity increase. Transition to turbulence is retarded with the increase of the radiation effect. When the optical thickness is one, the radiation effect is negligible for the Stark numbers larger than 10.

Although low translucency 3 mol% yttria stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal has excellent mechanical properties, it has limited application as a monolithic prosthesis. To improve these optical limitations, translucent zirconia has improved esthetics due to an increase in the cubic phase; however, it is accompanied by a decrease in mechanical properties simultaneously. Lithium disilicate has improved its mechanical properties through crystal size reduction and various heat treatment methods; therefore, its clinical application range is continuously increasing. Translucent zirconia shows a wide distribution of physical properties depending on the yttria content and lithium disilicate according to the size and density of crystal grains. As a result, the indications for translucent zirconia and lithium disilicate are increasing. Therefore, in this literature review, we intend to examine the rationale behind the material selection criteria in clinical situations and considerations for designing fixed dental prostheses including pontic, in particular, by summarizing recent studies.

A theoretical study is conducted for the design of solar air heaters using porous material. Radiative characteristics of glazing and porous absorbing media are found through spectral transmittances measured by the Visible spectrometer and the FT-IR. Using those characteristics the efficiencies of collectors are calculated one-dimensionally with the use of the Two-Flux radiation model. The efficiencies increase, as the air flow rates or albedos in the visible range increase, and as albedos in the IR range decrease. The optimum thickness of the porous medium of 15-mesh stainless steel wire screens is 0.001m, which represents the opacity of one.
