The effective linewidth was measured using the conventional cavity perturbation method at 9.43 GHz in room temperature for Ca-Zr substituted yttrium iron garnet plate. The experimental set-up consists of the network analyzer, the electromagnet and the cylimdrical TE001 cavity. Measurement was performed in the static magnetic field perpendicular to the sample plane. The real and imaginary parts of diagonal component of the microwave susceptibility tensor are obtained from the resonance frequency and the quality factor Q of the cavity. Variations of the effective linewidth was qualitatively explained with the spin wave scattering theory.

This paper is concerned with the design and implementation of magnetic damper system to reduce the vibration of suspension system actively. Cylindrical type electro-magnetic actuator with permanent magnet is analyzed and effective controller design is made. Magnetic force analyzed and transfer function for the total system is determined by experimental data using error minimization method. For experiments, simple suspension structure system is utilized, in which a magnetic damper composed of permanent magnet and digital controller is attached. In order to drive the system, bipolar power amplifier of voltage control type is utilized. Stable and high speed control board is used to perform digital control logic for the given system. This paper shows that the magnetic damper system using phase-lead controller excellently reduces vibration of 1-D.O.F (degree of freedom) suspension system.

Spray characteristics for the modulation with a pulsed spray in low-frequency region were investigted by performing with additional internal pulsed injection. The 1st perturbative flow was generated by rotating-type pulsed device and the 2nd pulse source generated by the magnetic valve was used to modulate the 1st flow. A pattern of the modulated spray was observed through FFT result and visualization. In case of modulated spray with the 2nd pulse control, the width of up and down motion of the modulated spray is smaller than that of the spray without the 2nd pulse. Also, the depth of penetration of the down stream is higher than that of spray without the 2nd pulse.

A gas generator which generates turbine driving gas by burning a part of propellants is used in an open cycle liquid rocket engine and as a main component of an open cycle liquid rocket engine autonomous hot firing tests are required to investigate the combustion performance and characteristics of the gas generator. However, since the combustion gas generated by a gas generator is choked at the turbine nozzle in the turbine manifold, it is necessary to consider the internal volume of turbine manifold as well as that of the gas generator for correct investigation of the combustion performance, characteristics, and acoustic characteristics of the gas generator. Therefore, in the paper hot firing test results of a gas generator with a turbine manifold simulator are described and characteristic prediction using the autonomous test of a gas generator is explained.

The characteristics of microwave reflectometry, which is based on the technologies of FM radar and is applied as a non-invasive method to examine the properties including density distribution of inhomogeneous media, is investigated. The microwave reflectometry system requires not only an optimized system hardware but as well as the understanding of system response from the media under test in order to provide the system solution describing the object under test quantitatively. The introduction of microwave reflectometry especially in the area of applied plasma physics has been relatively new and the number of usage is found to be increasing gradually. The experimental method to characterize the microwave system as a device to examine the properties of plasma is explained. The microwave reflectometry signals consist of the cutoff signals which originate from the region where most of the reflected power comes from and the scattered signals which result as an interaction of the microwave and the density perturbations. This paper describes the experimental results of the scattered signal from the microwave reflectometry, such as the wavenumber dependence and the sensitivity on density perturbation, and the comparison of the characteristics with those from the numerical simulations and those from the cutoff signals.

For the assessment of combustion stability of a liquid rocket engine, a device called "Pulse Gun" should be developed first, which can induce artificial perturbations that may lead to excitations of pressure oscillations in a combustion chamber. A model chamber has been used for identifying design parameters of a pulse gun that defines its characteristics. Dynamic pressure measurements showed that shock waves generated from pulse guns are axisymmetric around the axis of a pulse gun barrel. Pressure waves perturbed by a pulse gun induce resonant acoustic frequencies of a model chamber. This fact indicates that successful pressure field perturbations of the KSR-III combustion chamber can be performed by a newly developed pulse gun device. A maximum value of dynamic pressure peaks measured at the opposite point against a pulse gun outlet becomes stronger as charge mass of pulse gun powder increases.

As a preliminary study to quantify the measurement uncertainty of the Schmidt-Boelter type heat flux gauge, the present study has been conducted to evaluate the measurement error due to the calibration constant supported by manufacturer. Calibrations of heat flux gauges are performed at NIST Fire Research Division using a calibration facility with heat source of a 2000 W halogen-tungsten filament lamp and the calibration constant is obtained by comparing the response of the reference and a standard heat flux gauge at the same irradiance conditions. Calibration for heat flux gauges made by three different manufacturers is compared with their factory calibration constant. Relative error due to fluctuation of output signal from heat flux gauges does not exceed 1% of the mean value and the relative error between calibration of this study and factory calibration constant ranged from 1.5% to 14.3%. The present study shows that a continuous and periodic calibration is necessary for accurate heat flux measurement.

This paper describes the procedure to analyze the performance of the end-plated propeller(EPP) by a boundary integral method. The screw blade(SB) and end-plate(EP) are represented by a set of quadrilateral panels, where the source and normal dipole of uniform strength are distributed. The perturbation velocity potential, being the only unknown via the potential-based formulation, is determined by satisfying the flow tangency condition on the blade and the end-plate at the same time. The Kutta condition is satisfied through an iterative process by requiring the null pressure jump across the upper and lower sides of the trailing edges of both the SH and the EP. Sample calculations indicate that the EP increases the loading near the tip of the SB while spreading the trailing vortices along the trailing edge of the EP, thus avoiding the strong tip-vortex formation. Predicted performance of the EPP shows good correlations with the experimental results. The method is therefore considered applicable in designing and analyzing the EPP which may be an alternative for energy-saving propulsive devices.

In this paper, the antenna for parking management using wireless communication in outdoor parking environment was proposed. The proposed antenna was miniaturized by using parasitic element to reduce the size of the radiating element of the basic ${\lambda}/2$ microstrip antenna. The dimensions of the proposed antenna are $35mm{\times}35mm{\times}20.1mm$ that is 98.7% smaller than $309.1mm(0.46{\lambda}){\times}296.1mm(0.441{\lambda}){\times}20.1mm(0.029{\lambda})$ of the basic ${\lambda}/2$ microstrip antenna. The electrical characteristics of the antenna are 1.1 dBi at the center frequency of 447 MHz, an omni-directional radiation pattern on the E-plane, and $87.5^{\circ}$ of HPBW on the H-plane. The miniaturized ${\lambda}/4$ folded microstrip antenna using parasitic element has proved to be easy to mount on the wireless repeater, the sensor node installed on the ground, and the strop bar in the outdoor parking environment.
