The objectives of this paper are to study the characteristics of heat transfer and pressure drop of the plate heat exchanger with corrugation height by numerical analysis. Plate heat exchanger of three types was designed, which was corrugation height 3.1mm, 2.8mm and 2.5mm. The plate heat exchanger was numerically investigated for Reynolds number in a range of 950~3,380. The temperatures of the hot side were performed at $14.5^{\circ}C$ while that of the cold side was conducted at $4.5^{\circ}C$. The results show that the performance of heat transfer coefficient for corrugation height 2.5mm increases about 9.5~17.1% compared to that of corrugation height 3.1mm. On the other hand, the performance of pressure drop for corrugation height 2.5mm is remarkably higher than that of corrugation height 3.1mm, about 65.7~86.0%.

The regenerative evaporative cooler(REC) is to cool a stream of air using evaporative cooling effect without an increase in the humidity ratio. In the regenerative evaporative cooler, the air can be cooled down to a temperature lower than its inlet wet-bulb temperature. Besides the cooling performance, for practical application of the regenerative evaporative cooler, the compactness of the system is also a very important factor to be considered. In this respect, three different configurations, i.e., the flat plate type, the corrugated plate type, and the finned channel type are investigated and compared for the most compact configuration. The optimal structure of each configuration is obtained individually to minimize the volume for a given effectiveness within a limit of the pressure drop. Comparing the three optimal structures, the finned channel type is found to give the most compact structure among the considered configurations. The volume of the regenerative cooler can be reduced to 1/8 by adopting the finned channel type as compared to that of the flat plate type.

The stamping process is widely used in fabricating various sheet-parts for vehicle, airplane, and electronic devices due to its low processing cost and high productivity. Recently the use of thin sheets with corrugated structures has rapidly increased for the production of energy devices, e.g., heat exchangers and fuel cells. However, it is very difficult to make corrugated structures directly in the stamping process due to their geometrical complexity. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a multi-step stamping process with a combined heat treatment process: a sequence of the first stamping, heat treatment, and second stamping. By multi-stamping, we obtained successful results in fabricating very thin corrugated structures with thicknesses of $100{\mu}m$; these are applicable as part of a plate-type heat exchanger.

Micro-speaker diaphragms play an important role in generating a desired audio response. The diaphragm is generally a circular membrane, and the cross section is a double dome, with an inner dome and an outer dome. To improve the sound quality of the speaker, a number of corrugations may be included in the outer dome region. In this study, the role of these corrugations is investigated using two kinds of finite element method (FEM) calculations. Structural FEM modeling was carried out to investigate the change in stiffness of the diaphragm when the corrugations were included. Modal FEM modeling was then carried out to compare the natural frequencies and the resulting vibrational modes of the plain and corrugated diaphragms. The effects of the corrugations on the vibration characteristics of the diaphragm are discussed.

The skin is the largest organ of the integument system whose surface is closely related to many physiological and pathological conditions. The skin surface is closely related to functional status of the epidermis and dermis. The outermost surface of the skin shows characteristic pattern defined by small furrows are called micro-relief. The micro-relief change is according to physiological and pathological conditions of the skin. But, there is no data on health Korean skin micro-relief yet. This study presents some aspect of health Korean skin micro-relief from the twenties. The silicon replicas obtained from forearm, dorsum hand and finger were analyzed by profiles were accessed by stereoscopy. We measured density of furrow, width of furrow, and depth of furrow in micro-relief with sectioned silicon replica sample using stereoscope. Stereoscopic analysis showed that male group has a larger density of furrow and depth furrow in finger significantly. The densities of furrow were shown different not only between forearm and finger but also between finger and hand in male with female group. In conclusion, there were differences results between sex different and regional difference in skin replica profile. These quantitative data can be used for basis of further skin research for Korean.

This study was conducted to compare the species composition of sessile organisms on the artificial substrates of PVC submerged at different time intervals and duration in Jangmok Bay, Geoje Island, southern coast of Korea. Three PVC plates were submerged at one month interval from March to October and retrieved in November, 2007. A mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis exclusively occupied the artificial substrates submerged from March to April and occurred as a dominant species to July. An ascidian, Styela plicata occurred as a dominant sessile species from May to August. Balanus amphtrite, Bugula sp., and hydrozoans occurred as dominant species on the plates submerged from July to September. There was a mis-match between the peak time of settlement and dominance of sessile organisms due to the interspecies competitions when the PVC plates were retrieved in November. There was no clear relationship between submerged duration and the abundance of sessile organisms due to the different settlement period. M. galloprovincialis seemed to be a strong competitor which could exclude the previous recruiters of macroalgae by overgrowth and occupy the substrate surface and maintain its high population density by preventing the settlement of other species until late autumn. These results suggested that the composition of sessile organisms in vacant hard substrates could be determined by the combined effects of supply-timing of larvae and post-settlement competitions.

In this paper, we have designed the antenna for Korea SAT-5 Satellite Communication which can use Ka band in the earth station. The antenna structure consist of the the dual-offset gregorian reflector that has high gain and efficiency, the corrugated horn that has symmetric radiation patterns and low side lobe levels, the iris polarizer that make circular polarization and the OrthoMode Transducer that separate transmitting and receiving signals. The designed antenna gain is more than 45.7dBi in Tx-band which use LHCP and 42.0dBi in Rx-band which use RHCP. The co-polarized and cross-polarized radiation pattern comply with ITU-R S.580-6 and S.731-1 that are recommended by International Telecommunication Union in the geostationary satellite. The Axial ratio is less than 1.0dB in Tx-band and 1.5dB in Rx-band that meet MIL-STD-188-164A.

산업현장에서부터 실생활용품에 이르기까지 각종판재를 소재로하여 제작하는 가공품은 종류나 수가 매우 많다고 할수 있다. 이러한 제품들을 제작 하기 위해 여러단계의 성형 공정을 거치게 되며 원만한 성형공정 을 수행하기 위한 적절한 판재성형 제어방법으로써 다이곡률 반경의 변화나 블랭크홀딩가압정도의 부분적 변화로 드로잉률을 향상시키는 방법도 있으나 이보다 판재의 성형공정 제어방법에서 공구사이 상하에 비드 를 설치하여 판재를 성형할 경우 성형공정후 제품의 두께 분포가 비교적 균일해지고 드로잉의 마찰저항을 부분적으로 증가시키며 판재성형중 미끄럼 저항의 균형을 이루어 성형시킬 판소재가 절감도며 또한 성형중 주름을 억재하여 드로잉률을 향상시킨다. 다른 방법에 비해 비드는 설차가 간단해서 적절한 형상의 bead set을 선정하여 산업현장에서 실제 사용하고 있으며 또한 소재가 비드를 통과한후 탄성역에서 소성역으로 전환되기에 성형공정 이후 스프링백 현상으로인한 제품형상의 치수가 변하는 현상을 방지하는 효과도 기대할수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 자동차용판재인 아연도금피막 강판으로 실험한 결과와 비드 이론식을 고찰해 보고자 한다.

Recently, micro-speakers have attracted much attention due to their increasing demand in mobile devices. Micro-speakers use polymer diaphragms, which are manufactured from thin polymer film by the thermoforming process. The diaphragm is generally designed to be a circular membrane with a cross section consisting of a double dome structure, and a number of corrugations are located in the outer region to produce better sound quality. In the current study, a finite element (FE) analysis is performed for thermoforming, and the resulting thickness reduction in the corrugation regions is estimated. The estimated thickness distribution is used in further structural and modal FE analyses, from which the effects of local thickness reduction on the stiffness and vibration characteristics are determined.

최근 LCD 노트북 제품의 고유한 특정인 경박단소가 요구되면서, 백라이트의 박형화로 인해 광원으로써 램프의 세경화에 대한 개발도 진행되고 있다. 특히, 노트북용 램프의 경우 발열이 심해 도광판을 비롯한 시트류의 주름현상이 발생하며, 수명연장을 위해서 전극의 표면적이 넓거나 일함수(work functuon)가 작은 재질의 개발이 필요하다. 따라서 노트북용으로 저발열, 장수명을 위한 램프를 개발하고 있으며, 본 연구에서도 기존 Ni 전극을 사용한 램프 대비 Nb, Mo, Ta 전극을 사용했을때 통일한 구동조건에서 103%의 휘도특성 개선을 확인할 수 있었고 수명면에서도 기존 Ni 전극 대비 일함수가 낮은 Nb, Mo, Ta 전극을 사용한 램프의 경우 시간경과에 따른 휘도저하가 낮은 것으로 나타났다.
