탄소나노튜브(CNT)는 우수한 전기적, 화학적, 기계적 특성으로 인해 전자기술 분야에 있어서 많은 응용이 가능한 나노소재로 각광을 받고 있으며, 실질적으로 CNT를 이용하여 트렌지스터, 전계방출원, 이차 전지 등으로의 응용연구가 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 CNT 합성을 위해 전이금속의 촉매가 필요하며 또한 촉매가 나노입자로 형성이 되어야 CNT 합성이 가능하다. 기존에는 CNT 합성기판으로 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 완충층(buffer layer)과 촉매층을 증착하여 사용하였다. 완충층은 촉매가 기판의 내부로 확산하는 것을 막아주며, 촉매의 나노입자 형성을 원활히 함으로 고효율 합성과 구조제어를 가능하게 한다. 그러나 사용되는 완충층은 알루미나 또는 실리콘 산화막과 같은 절연막이기 때문에 CNT 고유의 우수한 전기전도도를 그대로 이용할 수 없다는 문제가 있다. 그러므로 보다 폭넓은 응용을 위해서는, 완충층의 사용없이 전기전도도가 좋은 금속기판에서 CNT를 직접 합성시키는 것이 중요하며, 이때 적절한 크기의 촉매 나노입자를 형성시키기 위한 각종 표면처리법 등이 현재까지 연구되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 Inconel 600 합금을 합성기판으로 하여 CNT의 고효율 합성에 대하여 연구하였다. 촉매의 나노입자 형성을 위하여 고온 산화처리 및 플라즈마 이온조사처리 등을 실시하였으며, CNT의 고효율 합성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 결과로서, 두 종류의 전처리를 혼합하여 처리한 Inconel 600 기판에서 높은 밀도의 미세한 나노입자가 형성되었고, CNT의 고효율 합성까지 얻을 수 있었다. 이는 Inconel 600 고유의 표면산화특성 및 플라즈마 이온조사에 따른 표면구조 변화가 그 원인으로 사료된다. 발표에서는 고효율 합성결과 및 합성기전에 대하여 보다 자세히 토의하고자 한다.

Composites with various layer constructions involving the ratio of S/P were produced from wood strands(S) and particles(P) (Cryptomeria japonica D.Don) to measure various Young's moduli and anisotropy by ultrasonics. As a result, static Young's moduli of composites were almost same as dynamic Young's moduli obtained from natural frequency. However, these were smaller than those evaluated from ultrasonic wave propagation velocity. The differences between propagation velocity of the parallel(${\parallel}$) and perpendicular(${\bot}$) in-plane direction resulted in a tendency of anisotropy. The tendency of anisotropy was larger in three-layer constructions than in seven-layer constructions. The differences of strand surface layers showed larger values than those of particle surface layers. Also, composites with higher weight ratio of strand had a tendency to propagate rapidly in each direction. In contrast to these results, the propagation velocity in the thickness direction had a tendency to propagate rapidly in composites with particle surface layers and the lower weight ratio of strand.

An analysis of laminar mixed convection flow adjacent to the inclined flat surface which is subjected to a uniform temperature in a uniform free stream is performed. Nonsimilar boundary layed equation are derived by using the mixed convection parameters such that smooth transition from the purely forced convection limit to the purely free convection limit is possible. The governing equations are solved by a finite difference method using the coupled box scheme of sixth order. Numerical results are presented for prandtl numbers of 0.7 and 7 with the angle of inclination ranging from 0 to 90 degree from the vertical. The velocity distributions for the buoyancy assisting flow exhibit a significant overshoot above the free stream value in the region of intense mixed convection and the velocity field is found to be more sensitive to the buoyancy effect than the temperature field. The separation point near the wall was obtained for the buoyancy opposing flow. The local Nusselt number increases for buoyancy assisting flow and decreases for opposing flow with increasing value of the local Grashoff number in the mixed convection parameter. For large Prandtl number, the Nusselt number and the friction factor decrease significantly near the separation point. Present numerical predictions are in good agreement with recent experimental results by Ramachandran.

An experiment has been carried out to investigate the aerodynamic effect of surface roughness on the characteristics of the turbulent separation and reattaching flow downstream of a backward-facing step. The distributions of boundary layer parameters, forward-flow fraction and turbulent stresses in the region near the reattachment point are measured with a split film sensor. It is demonstrated that the streamwise distributions of the forward-flow fraction in the recirculation and reattachment regions are similar, independent of the roughness. The reattachment length is found to be only weakly affected by the roughness. It is also shown that the velocity profile on the rough surface approaches to that of the equilibrium turbulent boundary layer faster than that on the smooth surface in the redeveloping region after reattachment.

A numerical method is presented which can solve the unsteady momentum and thermal boundary layers, coupled through the agency of buoyancy force, over a heated circular cylinder impulsively started from rest. By linearizing the nonlinear finite difference equations without sacrificing accuracy, numerical solutions are obtained at each time step without iteration. To get rid of the requirement of excessive number of grid points in the region of reversed flow, special form of transformed variables are used, by which the computational boundary layer thickness is maintained almost constant. These numerical properties enable the method to easily handle the region of reversed flow and how the singularity develops in the interior of the boundary layer. In order to investigated the thermal effects on the skin friction, heat flux, displacement thickness and on the separation, we have successfully solved three different cases of the buoyancy parameter .alpha.(Gr/Re$^{2}$).

Plasma-spraying was conducted to produced the microwave absorbing surface films on the alumi-num-alloy used for the fuselage to protect the aircraft against the RADAR detction. The surface films were produced by plasma-splaying the mecharucally mixed composite powders of the silicon carblde and Ni-Zn ferrite. This M /W absorbers were designed experimentally and fabricated trialty, as a result of which the rolative frequency bandwidth of 7.6 to 8.4% were obtained under the tolerance limits of the re-flection coefficients lower than -6dB(absorption ratio 75%), and the maximum absorption thickness becomes 0.5 to 0.5.imm, which Is much thinner than that of the conventional ones.

The purpose of this investigation is to explore the possibility of using artificial mechanical means for excitation of shear layers with application in swirling jet mixing enhancement. For this purpose, a mechanical excitation device was designed and fabricated. The major system components consist of two subsonic nozzles, one swirl generator, and the excitation device. The experiments were carried out at various helical excitation modes; i.e., m=+0, m=$\pm$1, m=$\pm$2, m=$\pm$3, and m=$\pm$4. Axial mean velocity measurements were made with plane and helical wave excitation using a hot-wire anemometer. The results are compared with the baseline (plane-wave excitation) at various helical modes. The acquired data is presented in 3-D mesh plots and 2-D contour plots. It was observed that new device was effective in excitation of the helical instability waves and resulting in mixing enhancement of the swirling jet.

Al-based composites reinforced with SiC particulate were fabricated using a thermal spray process, and dry sliding wear behavior of the composites was investigated. Pre-mixed Al and SiC powders were sprayed on an A16061 substrate by flame spraying, and dry sliding wear test were performed under various sliding speed and applied load conditions against ${Al_2}{O_3}$ ball. Wear behavior of the composites was studied by using scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). And build-up mechanism of MML on the worn surface of the composites was examined. It was revealed that these MML was formed of debris from the contact surface of the composites and effected to wear behavior of the composites protecting the contact surface of the composites.

The purpose of this study is to design a heat insulator for reducing available energy loss in stratified thermal storage tank. Heat insulator is operated by buoyancy effect from density difference between hot and cold water without extra equipment. Analysis model using the Matlab Simulink was developed to estimate the internal temperature distribution in thermal storage tank and also used to select proper material and thickness of the heat insulator. Operational feasibility was confirmed through reduced scale experiment. As a result, heat insulator can effectively delay the formation of thermal boundary layer between hot and cold water. In reduced scale experiment, heat insulator can preserve additional 1540J of available energy. When applied to the real thermal storage tank, increase of 6% thermal storage efficiency can be expected.
