The automotive exhaust gases generated by the vehicles containing carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and lead, is a large concern because of their harm to human health or the living environment. To reduce exhaust gas, it is important to develop a variety of techniques that are currently being used by elemental analysis to determine the optimal conditions. In this study, the anti-freeze coolant contained in the exhaust gas was examined, which can affect the emissions. The effects of the commercially available coolant from five domestic companies on the HC, NOx and $CO_2$ emissions were analyzed to determine the optimal amount of antifreeze. In addition, antifreeze products from the five companies were analyzed with respect to driving time of the cooling fan and the correlation of the NOx emission analysis. The temperature of the engine oil was matched using a manual gear of small passenger inspection standard speed $40{\pm}2Km/h$ so the vehicle could meet the specifications for inspection $90{\sim}93^{\circ}C$. The Company D fan operation time resulted in the shortest antifreeze, $CO_2$ and NOx emissions.

디젤엔진에서 발생되는 PM과 $NO_X$는 강화되는 배기규제의 주요 저감대상으로서 이의 저감을 위한 다양한 후처리장치가 개발되고 있다. 이중 Urea-SCR은 $NO_X$의 전환율이 높고 연비에 미치는 영향이 작기 때문에 $NO_X$저감을 위한 최선의 장치로 인식되고 있다. 하지만, 우레아 수용액의 물성치 특성으로 인하여 동절기 $-20^{\circ}C$이하로 내려가는 지역에서 동결되는 문제점을 해결해야한다. 따라서 이러한 우레아 저장탱크에 해동 시스템을 적용하여 시동초기 우레아를 적정 시간내에 안정적으로 공급가능한 기술의 확보가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 요소수 저장탱크 내부에 냉각수 순환 가열방식(CH)과 전기 가열방식(EH)을 이용하여 동결된 요소수의 해동현상에 대한 3차원 비정상상태 수치 해석을 수행하였다. 이를 통하여 해동 과정 중 나타난 액상분율, 온도영역 그리고 자연대류를 분석하여 각 가열 방식에 대한 해동특성을 비교하였으며 순수 갈륨 융해 실험 결과값과 수치 해석 결과값를 통하여 수치 해석 방법을 검증하였다. 결론적으로 1,000ml의 우레아 수용액이 확보되기까지의 시간은 CH의 경우, 275s, 그리고 EH의 경우, 230s임을 알 수 있었다.

This paper dealt with the design and implementation of an expert system to monitor and diagnose the lightning arresters in GIS substations. The expert system consists of a data acquisition module(DAM) based on microprocessor and diagnostic algorithms. The DAM measures and analyzes several parameters necessary for the arrester diagnosis such as system voltages, leakage current components, and temperatures. Also, it includes an intelligent surge counter which can record the date and tin, the polarity, and the amplitude of surge currents. All the data acquired is transmitted to a remote computer by a low rate wireless network specified in IEEE 802.15.4 to avoid electromagnetic intereference under high voltage and large current environments. The decision-making for the arrester diagnosis completes with a Java Expert System Shell(JESS) which is composed of a knowledge base, an inference engine and a graphic user interface(GUI).

Since the ambitious declaration of the vision of the Semantic Web, a growing number of studies on semantic search have recently been made. However, we recognize that our community has not so much accomplished despite those efforts. We analyze two underlying problems : a lack of a shared notion of semantic search that guides current research, and a lack of a comprehensive view that envisions future work. Based on this diagnosis, we start by defining semantic search as the process of retrieving desired information in response to user's input using semantic technologies such as ontologies. Then, we propose a classification framework in order for the community to obtain the better understanding of semantic search. The proposed classification framework consists of input processing, target source, search methodology, results ranking, and output data type. Last, we apply our proposed framework to prior studies and suggest future research directions.

With the abundance of digital contents, the necessity of precise indexing technology is consistently required. To meet these requirements, the intelligent software entity needs to be the subject of information retrieval and the interoperability among intelligent entities including human must be supported. In this paper, we analyze the unifying framework for multi-modality indexing that Snoek and Worring proposed. Our work investigates the method of improving the authenticity of indexing information in contents-based automated indexing techniques. It supports the creation and control of abstracted high-level indexing information through ontological concepts of Semantic Web skills. Moreover, it attempts to present the fundamental model that allows interoperability between human and machine and between machine and machine. The memory-residence model of processing ontology is inappropriate in order to take-in an enormous amount of indexing information. The use of ontology repository and inference engine is required for consistent retrieval and reasoning of logically expressed knowledge. Our work presents an experiment for storing and retrieving the designed knowledge by using the Minerva ontology repository, which demonstrates satisfied techniques and efficient requirements. At last, the efficient indexing possibility with related research is also considered.

The state of registry issues a type certificate validation (TCV) based on the satisfactory evidence that the product (aircraft, engine, and propeller) is in compliance with the appropriate airworthiness requirements. The Korean government performs an evaluation to determine whether the product complies with Korean airworthiness standards for issuing TCV according to the Korean aviation safety law. Recently, the Validation Principles Working Group (VPWG) has developed a risk-based model for validation of civil aeronautical products. Also, VPWG proposed to incorporate this validation model into the corresponding ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices and guidance material. In this paper, we have reviewed the validation model and discussed improvements in the validation process.

A computational system to predict flowfield and infrared signature in aircraft exhaust system is developed. As the first step, a virtual mission profile is considered and an engine is selected through a performance analysis. Then a nozzle that meets the requirement of each mission is designed. The internal flow in the exhaustion nozzle at the maximum thrust is analyzed using a state-of-the-art CFD code. In addition, a system to combine information of the skin temperature distribution of the nozzle and after-body surface with an infrared prediction code is developed. Finally, qualitative results for the infrared signature reduction design are obtained by investigating the infrared signature level under various conditions.

The present study has been conducted economic analysis through actual operation of electric heat pump (EHP) and gas engine driven heat pump (GHP) which are installed at the same building in the university. Cost items, such as initial cost, annual energy cost and maintenance cost of each system are considered to analyze life cycle cost (LCC) and economical efficiencies are compared. The initial cost is considered on the basis of actual cost, and annual energy cost is converted into the cost after measuring electricity and gas consumption a day LCC applied present value method is used to assess economical profit of both of them. Variables used to LCC analysis are electricity cost escalation rate, natural gas cost escalation rate, interest rate, and service lives when each of them are 4%, 2%, 8%, and 20 years. The result shows that EHP (148,257,306 won) is more profitable than GHP (161,239,296 won) by 8.05% (12,981,990 won).

Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) is a linearization technique for nonlinear power amplifiers (PAs) by implementing inverse function of the PA at baseband digital stage. To obtain proper DPD parameters, a feedback path is required to convert the PA output to a baseband signal, and a memory is also needed to store the feedback signals. DPD parameters are usually found by an adaptive algorithm from the feedback samples. However, for the adaptive algorithm to converge to a reliable solution, long feedback samples are required, which increases convergence time and hardware complexity. In this paper, we propose a DPD technique that requires relatively short feedback samples. From the observation that the convergence time of the adaptive algorithm highly depends on the initial condition, this paper iteratively utilizes the feedback samples while keeping and using the converged DPD parameters at the former iteration as the initial condition at the current iteration. Computer simulation results show that the proposed method performs better than the conventional technique while the former requires much shorter feedback samples than the latter.
