Xe gas is moved to target from GPM. It is used to feasible nuclear reaction from proton of 30MeV cyclotron being investigated by the Xe-124 gas target system. This system is divided into four parts. The hardware system was constructed by solidworks 3-D CAD and Helium supply is to cool the Havor foil. The Cooling water has the job of cooling down the temperature when Xe gas is being investigated in the target. Temperature and pressure gauges are attached to be checked easily. GPM has the part that prepares to transport Xe gas. There are storage vessel that stores Xe gas, the cold trap that filters humidity and impurity and lastly storage vessel that temporarily stores Xe gas. HCS using the helium is to clean and cool for each part. These parts are configured with SIEMENS PLC and PcVue monitoring program for more comfortable and easy maintenance.

For drones to be used for industrial or agricultural applications, it is necessary to increase the payload and endurance. Currently, the payload and endurance are limited by the battery technology for electric powered drones. In addition, charging or replacing the batteries may not be a practical solution at the field that requires near continuous operation. In this paper, a procedure to optimize the power system of an electric hybrid drone that consists of an internal combustion engine, a generator, a battery, and electric motors is presented. The example drone for crop dusting is sized for easy transportation with a maximum takeoff weight of 200 kg. The two main rotors that are mechanically connected to the internal combustion engine provides most of the lift. The drone is controled by four electric motors that are driven by the generator. By analyzing the flow of the energy, a methodology to select the optimum propeller and motor among the commercially available models is described. Then, a procedure of finding the optimum operational condition along with the proper gear reduction ratios for the internal combustion engine based on the test data is presented.

Agilent 5973 GC-MS instrument was modified so that the capillary direct interface was removed and that a silicone membrane was installed between GC and MS. Feasibility study of the membrane interface GC-MS has been carried out. Vacuum of the mass spectrometer was not affected by the carrier gas flow rate up to $4.7m{\ell}/min$. As the carrier flow rate was increased, peak tailing was reduced and chromatogram peaks appeared earlier. Chromatogram peaks showed better separation and higher sensitivity as the membrane thickness was reduced from $127{\mu}m$ to $75{\mu}m$, and also as the interface temperature was increased. However, the membrane interface GC-MS had drawbacks such as background ions at 73 and 147 m/z and poor peak separation due to peak tailing.

The effect of plasma operational parameters for the determination of rare earth elements(REE) by means of inductively coupled plasma(ICP) spectrometry was investigated. While the increase in the flow rate of carrier gas argon enhanced the sensitivity and lowered the detection limit, significant ionization interferences were observed. The decrease in RF power increased the signal to background ratio. The observation point showing the lowest ionization interference was slightly higher than the position where the spatial profile of the analyte reached the maximum. The detection limits of the spectral lines commonly used for the determination of REE were measured and the spectral lines relatively free from spectral interferences were chosen.

방사성 폐기물의 운반이나 장기 보관 시 방사성 물질의 침출을 차단하기 위한 유리화 기술을 실현하기 위해 이송식 아크 플라즈마에 대해 전산해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구에서는 운전전류나 아크길이와 같은 운전조건 변화에 따른 열플라즈마의 특성 변화 뿐만 아니라 150 kW급 고출력 이송식 아크 플라즈마의 최적 설계를 위하여 핵심 부품인 파일럿 노즐의 길이와 직경 변화에 따른 예상 용융영역을 전산해석 하여 방사성 폐기물의 유리화 기술을 상업적으로 이끌어내는데 기초 자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 노즐직경은 4, 5, 6 mm로 변화시켰으며, 길이는 2, 4, 6mm로 하였다. 이러한 다양한 설계조건에 대하여 운전변수로는 전류 200 A, 방전 기체인 알곤의 유량 15 L/min, 아크 길이 2 cm로 고정하였다. 전산해석 결과 노즐직경이 작을수록 아크압축 효과에 의해 중심부에서 최고 온도가 높은 열플라즈마 제트를 발생시킬 수 있으나, 반경방향으로 온도구배가 커서 고온 구간이 급격히 감소하는 경향이 예상되었다. 반면 노즐직경이 증가할수록 아크 압축효과는 줄어들지만 반경방향으로 온도가 완만히 감소하여 콘크리트가 대부분인 유리화 대상물질을 충분히 용융시킬 수 있는 $2,600^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온 면적이 넓어지게 될 것으로 예상되었다. 또한, 노즐길이가 줄어들 경우 아크방전의 안정성은 다소 떨어 질 수 있으나 수 있으나 고온의 열플라즈마 제트가 반경방향으로 효과적으로 넓어 질 수 있음이 예측되었다. 따라서 고온 영역의 확장 관점에서 이송식 아크 플라즈마 토치를 제작할 경우 아크의 안정성을 유지하는 범위 내에서 파일럿 노즐의 직경을 크게 하고 길이는 짧게 하는 것이 효과적인 유리화를 위해 유리할 것으로 예상되었다.

Analytical characteristics of low power-low flow inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectometry(ICP-AES) has been studied. Although the net intensity of the low power ICP is lower than the moderate power ICP, the signal to background ratio becomes higher since the background intensity decreases with decreasing the RF power. The detection limit of the low power ICP is comparable with that of the moderate power ICP. The dynamic range of the calibration curve of the low power ICP is $10^4{\sim}10^5$. The ionization interferences by alkali metals increase with increasing the carrier gas flow rate, but the effects are not varied significantly with the RF power.

Liquid helium is an exciting subject for the study of thermodynamic and transport properties because of its remarkable properties. The viscosity of liquid helium exhibits the abnormal behavior compared to other ordinary liquid. Below the $\lambda$ point liquid $^4He$ becomes superfluid, and it is obviously quite a different phenomenon from the change of liquid $^3He$. The brake theory of viscosity proposed by authors is successfully applied to liquid $^3He$, liquid $^4He$, dense gas and 4He with adjustable parameter $V_s$. The calculation results are satisfactory compared with the observed values.

Analytical method to determine rare earth elements which were extracted to organic phase by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(ICP-MS) was investigated. Organic phase which had extracted rare earth elements was directly aspirated into ICP-MS by ultrasonic nebulizer(USN) in order to reduce solvent load to the plasma. Then, the count rate increased when MIBK(methyl isobutyl ketone) was added to EtOH(ethanol) but decreased when 0.03 M HEH(2-ethylhexyl-2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid, $P_{507}$, PC88A) was added to solvent which mixed MIBK with EtOH. The optimal temperatures of desolvation system were -10 $^{\circ}C$ for the condenser and 150 $^{\circ}C$ for the heating tube. The optimal nebulizer flow rate which gave maximum count rate and minimum reflect power was 0.7 L/min. The optimal pH and extraction time were 4.3 and 10 min for MIBK-0.03 M HEH system. Detection limits which were obtained through calibration curves at the range of 0.2 ${\sim}$ 20 ng/mL were 0.02 ${\sim}$ 0.05 ng/mL under the optimal experimental conditions.

In addition, small volume samples (<$30{\mu}{\ell}$) could be used. The system has glow discharge cell with special design for improvement of precision. The effect of discharge parameters such as discharge power, gas flow rate has been studied to find optimum condition. The emitted light was effectively carried into detector by fiber optic cable in UV region. The calibration curve of Pb, Cd were obtained with 3 samples.

In this study, a new method for the analysis of high-purity nitrogen was developed. A gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) was used for purity analysis. Certified reference materials (CRMs) at a level of 3 µmol/mol of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO₂), and methane (CH₄), which may exist in high-purity nitrogen, were prepared using the gravimetric method, and these CRMs were used for purity analysis. In this new method, ultra-high-purity and high-purity nitrogen were used as carrier gases. The impurities in high-purity nitrogen were quantitatively analyzed by comparing the differences in the area values of the GC chromatograms of the prepared CRMs. We purchased liquid nitrogen and three bottles of nitrogen gas, which were produced by three different manufacturers, using high-purity nitrogen. Furthermore, to validate the developed purity analysis method, the fraction of impurities in high-purity nitrogen was compared with the results of the typical purity analysis method. The comparison results were consistent within the expanded uncertainties (k = 2).
