The hydrodynamic stability equations are formulated for buoyancy-induced flows adjacent to a vertical, planar, isothermal surface in cold pure water. The resulting stability equations, when reduced to ordinary differential equation by a similarity transformation, constitute a two-point boundary-value(eigenvalue) problem, which was numerically solved for various values of the density extremum parameter R=( $T_{m}$ - $T_.inf./) / ( $T_{o}$ - $T_.inf./). These stability equations have been solved using a computer code designed to accurately solve two-point boundary-value problems. The present numerical study includes neutral stability results for the region of the flows corresponding to 0.0.leq. R. leq.0.15, where the outside buoyancy force reversals arise. The results show that a small amount of outside buoyancy force reversal causes the critical Grashof number $G^*/ to increase significantly. A further increase of the outside buoyancy force reversal causes the critical Grashof number to decrease. But the dimensionless frequency parameter $B^*/ at $G^*/ is systematically decreased. When the stability results of the present work are compared to the experimental data, the numerical results agree in a qualitative way with the experimental data.erimental data.

The dependence of CT scanning parameters on the CT number to physical density conversion from the CT image of CT and CBCT electron density phantom acquired by the CT scanner using in radiotherapy were analyzed by experiment. The CT numbers were independent of the tube current product exposure time, slice thickness, filter of image reconstruction, field of view and volume of phantom. But the CT numbers were dependent on the tube voltage and cross section of phantom. As a result, for physical density range above 0, the maximum CT number difference observed at the tube voltage between 90 and 120 kVp was 27%, and the maximum CT number difference observed between CT body and head electron density phantom was 15%.

The supersonic shock wave generated by fully coupled explosion will change into subsonic shock wave, plastic wave, and elastic wave consecutively as the wave propagates through rock mass. While the estimation of the blast-induced peak pressure was the main aim of the companion paper, this paper will concentrate on the estimation of the rise time of blast-induced pressure. The rise time can be expressed as a function of explosive density, isentropic exponent, detonation velocity, exponential coefficient of the peak pressure attenuation, dynamic yield stress, plastic wave velocity, elastic wave velocity, rock density, Hugoniot parameters, etc. Parametric analysis was performed to pinpoint the most influential parameter that affects the rise time and it was found that rock properties are more sensitive than explosive properties. The probabilistic distribution of the rise time is evaluated by the Rosenblueth'S point estimate method from the probabilistic distributions of explosive properties and rock properties. Numerical analysis was performed to figure out the effect of rock properties and explosive properties on the uncertainty of blast-induced vibration. Uncertainty analysis showed that uncertainty of rock properties constitutes the main portion of blast-induced vibration uncertainty rather than that of explosive properties. Numerical analysis also showed that the loading rate, which is the ratio of the peak blasting pressure to the rise time, is the main influential factor on blast-induced vibration. The loading rate is again more influenced by rock properties than by explosive properties.

The powder core, conventionally fabricated from iron particles coated with insulator, showed large eddy current loss under high frequency, because of small specific resistance. To overcome the eddy current loss, the increase in the specific resistance of powder cores was needed. In this study, copper oxide coating onto electrically conductive iron particles was performed using a planetary ball mill to increase the specific resistance. Coating factors were optimized by the Response surface methodology. The independent variables were the CuO mass fraction, mill revolution number, coating time, ball size, ball mass and sample mass. The response variable was the specific resistance. The optimization of six factors by the fractional factorial design indicated that CuO mass fraction, mill revolution number, and coating time were the key factors. The levels of these three factors were selected by the three-factors full factorial design and steepest ascent method. The steepest ascent method was used to approach the optimum range for maximum specific resistance. The Box-Behnken design was finally used to analyze the response surfaces of the screened factors for further optimization. The results of the Box-Behnken design showed that the CuO mass fraction and mill revolution number were the main factors affecting the efficiency of coating process. As the CuO mass fraction increased, the specific resistance increased. In contrast, the specific resistance increased with decreasing mill revolution number. The process optimization results revealed a high agreement between the experimental and the predicted data ($Adj-R^2=0.944$). The optimized CuO mass fraction, mill revolution number, and coating time were 0.4, 200 rpm, and 15 min, respectively. The measured value of the specific resistance of the coated pellet under the optimized conditions of the maximum specific resistance was $530k{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$.

A method for determining the optimum ideal MHD $\beta$limit and the operation conditions is presented for an axisymmetric tokamak reactor with a circular cross section. The $\beta$limit is calculated under the constraints of ideal MHD instability criteria with varying the operation conditions which depend on the toroidal current density distributions. Semiempirical laws deduced from experimental observations are used for the toroidal current density distributions. Analytic derivations of various equations required to determine the $\beta$limit are carried out from the empirical equations. Various distributions of the $\beta$limit are obtained by the numerical calculations for different distributions of the toroidal current density. The resulting values of the maximum $\beta$limited by ideal MHD instabilities are expressed by a scaling law in terms of the tokamak geometry and the safety factor.

아르곤 기체의 방사세기 또는 그 세기 비는 플라즈마 공정 진단에서 일반적으로 사용된다. 본 실험에서는 100 mTorr 압력 조건하의 유도결합 플라즈마(13.56 MHz)에서 E-H 모드 전이 영역, rf 바이어스(12.5 MHz) 전력 인가 및 N2 혼합 시 단순화한 충돌-방사 모델에 기초한 광방사 세기비 방법을 적용하여 플라즈마 변수를 진단하였다. 개발 프로그램 기반의 분광기를 사용하여 아르곤 기체의 특정 파장(750.4, 751.5 그리고 811.5 nm)들을 관측하였고, 동일한 조건하에서 정전 탐침법으을 이용하여 전자 에너지 분포함수의 변화도 측정 하였다. 맥스웰 전자 에너지 분포를 가정하는 일반적인 경우와 비교하여 볼 때 실제적인 전자 에너지 분포함수의 측정은 전자의 가열 메커니즘에 대한 상세한 정보를 제공함과 동시에 플라즈마 재흡수에 대한 보정을 가능하게 해준다. 광방사 세기비법에 의해 측정된 결과에 의하면, 750.4 nm/751.5 nm는 높은 에너지(>13.08 eV)의 전자들의 유효 전자온도에 대한 정보를 나타내는 반면 811.5 nm/750.4 nm는 아르곤 준안정 준위 밀도(1s5)에 대한 정보를 제공하게 된다. 수행된 실험 조건하에서, 측정된 준안정 준위 밀도는 E-H 모드 전이 영역에서 최대값을 나타내었고 바이어스 전압 및 N2 기체 혼합 비율이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 결과를 얻었다. 유효 전자온도의 경우 광방사 세기비법과 정전 탐침법 모두 같은 결과를 보여 주었는데, E-H 모드 전이 영역에서는 전자온도는 거의 일정하였고 바이어스 전압 및 N2 기체 혼합 비율이 증가함에 따라 전자온도는 증가하였다. 이러한 실험 결과는 방전 모드 전이, 바이어스 인가 그리고 혼합 기체 사용하는 공정 플라즈마를 이해하는데 있어 이들 변수의 진단이 중요한 요소임을 보여준다.

PDP(Plasma Display Panel)는 21세기 디스플레이 시장을 대체할 차세대 디스플레이 장치로서 넓은 시야각, 얇고, 가볍고, 메모리기능이 있다는 여러 가지 장점들을 가지고 있지만 현재 고휘도, 고효율, 저소비전력 등의 문제점들을 해결하여야 한다. 이러한 문제점들의 해결을 위해서는 명확한 미세방전 PDP 플라즈마에 대한 정확한 진단 및 해석이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 미세 면방전 AC-PDP 플라즈마의 기초 변수들 (플라즈마 밀도 & 온도, 플라즈마 뜬 전위, 플라즈마 전위 등의 측정을 통해 고휘도, 고효율 PDP를 위한 최적의 방전환경을 알아내는 데 있다. 일반적으로 전자의 밀도는 방전전류에 비례하는 관계를 보인다. 전류에 대해 방전전압이 일정하다면 전자밀도가 커짐에 따라서 휘도는 포화되며 상대적으로 휘도와 전류의 비로 표시되는 발광효율은 감소하게 된다. 반면 전자밀도가 상당히 작다면 휘도는 전자밀도에 비례하고 효율은 최대값을 보인다. 따라서 미세구조 PDP에서 휘도와 발광효율, 양쪽에 부합하는 최적의 방전환경을 플라즈마 전자밀도와 온도의 측정을 통해서 해석하는 것이 필요하다. 본 실험에서는 방전기체의 종류와 Ne+Xe 방전기체의 조성비에 따른 플라즈마 밀도, 온도의 공간적인 분포특성을 진단하기 위해서 초미세 랑뮈에 탐침(지름: 수 $mu extrm{m}$)을 제작하였다. 제작된 초미세 탐침을 컴퓨터로 제어되는 스텝핑모터를 장착한 정밀 X, Y, Z stage에 부착하여서 수 $\mu\textrm{m}$간격의 탐침 삽입위치에 따라서 미세면방전 AC-PDP의 플라즈마 밀도 및 온도분포 특성을 진단하였다. PDP 방전공간에 초미세 랑뮈에 탐침을 삽입해서 -200~+200V의 바이어스 전압을 가해준다. 음의 바이어스 전압구간에서 이온 포화전류를 얻어내어 여기서 플라즈마 이온 밀도를 측정하고 양의 바이어스 전압구간에서 플라즈마 전자온도를 측정하면 미세면방전 AC-PDP 플라즈마의 기초 진단이 가능하다.

It has been resulted that Lagrange multiplier method with statistical approach was superior to traditional harmonic balance method in identifying the nonlinear loudspeaker parameters when output signals were contaminated with Gaussian random noise. We have known that the displacement-dependent characteristic values of nonlinear parameters identified by traditional harmonic balance method were estimated less than original values by the increase of output noise and the stiffness coefficients were very sensitive to output noise. Also, by the sensitivity analysis we have verified that the harmonic distortions in acoustic radiation was mainly due to nonlinearity of force factor caused by uneven magnetic fields and that reducing the nonlinearity of damping coefficients were very effective for improving second harmonic distrotion of acoustic radiation.

A numerical analysis is performed about the effects of aspect ratio on natural convective heat transfer from a vertical isothermal cylinder of 0.deg. C immersed in cold pure water. The results of analysis include velocity profiles, temperature profiles and mean Nusselt number of the steady flow region. As aspect ratio of vertical cylinder increases, the flow and heat transfer characteristics of vertical isothermal cylinder approach to those of vertical isothermal flat plate. Numerical solutions obtained for Rayleigh number and aspect ratio indicate the cylinders can be classified as short cylinder and long cylinder. In the cases of short cylinder and long cylinder, new heat transfer correlations are presented. Here, the coefficient values C of new heat transfer correlations are presented as the function of density extremum parameter $R^*/. Numerical results show that theoretical results are in close agreement with experimental results.ts.
