Linear order Concentrators and Superconcentrators have been studied extensively for their ability to interconnect large numbers of devices in parallel, whether in communication systems or in parallel computers. One major limitation on the efficiency of parallel computer designs has been the prohibitively high cost of parallel communication between processors and memories. Linear order concentrators, O(n), can be used to construct theoretically optimal interconnection network schemes. Existing explicitly the defined constructions are based on expanders, which have large constant factors, thereby rendering them impractical lot reasonable sized networks. It demands the construction of concentrator which uses the expander with the smaller expansion constant. This paper introduces an improvement on the method of constructing concentrators using expanders, which reduce the size of resulting concentrator built from any given expander by a constant factor.

Linear size expanders have been studied in many fields for the practical use, which make it possible to connect large numbers of device chips in both parallel communication systems and parallel computers. One major limitation on the efficiency of parallel computer designs has been the highly cost of parallel communication between processors and memories. Linear order concentrators can be used to construct theoretically optimal interconnection network schemes. Existing explicitly defined constructions are based on expanders, which have large constant factors, thereby rendering them impractical for reasonable sized networks. For these objectives, we use the more detailed matching points in permutation functions, to find out the bigger expansion constant from an equation, $\mid\Gamma_x\mid\geq[1+d(1-\midX\mid/n)]\midX\mid$. This paper presents an improvement of expansion constant on constructing concentrators using expanders, which realizes the reduction of the size in a superconcentrator by a constant factor. As a result, this paper shows an explicit construction of (n, 5, $1-\sqrt{3/2}$) expander. Thus, superconcentrators with 209n edges can be obtained by applying to the expanders of Gabber and Galil's construction.

Expansion turbine system to recover the electricity energy from natural gas transmission stations is a well-known technique. The turbo-expander efficiency depends on the ratio of the natural gas flow rates to the design flow rate of the turbo-expander. However, if there is a big difference of the natural gas flow rate through the pressure letdown station because of seasonal supply pattern, that is, high flow rate in winter while low flow rate in summer, single turbo-expander system is not so efficient as to recover the pressurized energy from the low flow-rate natural gas. Therefore, we have proposed a new concept of double turbo-expander system: one is a big capacity and the other a small capacity. Here we have theoretically computed the electric powers at the pressure reduction from 18.5 bar to 7.5 bar depending on the inlet conditions of temperature and flow rate. The calculated electricity generation has been increased by 30% from 12.4 MW in a single turbo expander to 16.1 MW in the proposed double turbo-expander system when a minimal design efficiency of 0.72 is applied.

고강도 알루미늄 합금 링롤재의 급냉, 링 팽창(expansion) 및 링 압축(compression) 응력제거처리후 잔류응력을 예측하기 위하여 2차원 축대칭 열해석 및 탄소성 해석을 수행하였다. 급냉 및 응력제거처리 후 2단 과시효 처리(T73)된 링롤재에 대하여 3단계 절단법(Three step sectioning method)을 적용하여 링롤재의 두께에 따른 잔류응력 분포를 측정하였으며, 측정결과를 급냉 및 응력제거처리후 잔류응력 해석결과와 비교분석하였다. 링의 급냉후 원주 및 축방향의 잔류응력 해석값은 T73후 측정값과 비슷한 경향을 보였으며, 링의 내면과 외면에서 압축응력을 나타내었고 중심에서 인장응력을 나타내었다. 잔류응력은 링 팽창(T7351) 및 링 압축(T7352) 적용후 T73에 비해 현저히 감소하였으며, 축방향의 제거 효과가 원주방향보다 우수하게 나타났다. 또한 링 압축에 의한 제거효과가 링 팽창보다 크게 나타났다. 링롤재의 응력제거처리는 제거 효과 및 실용성 측면에서 링 압축 공정이 유리하며, 치수제어 및 장비용량 측면에서 링 팽창 공정이 유리하다는 결론을 얻었다.

The large deformation of inflatable membrane structure is numerically and experimentally considered in this paper. The numerical algorithm of wrinkling based on Miller and Hedgepeth membrane theory is developed using user material(UMAT) subroutine written by FORTRAN. Wrinkled area and deformed shapes of inflatable membrane structures are investigated by using ABAQUS with UMAT subroutine of wrinkling algorithm.

노즐로부터 방출되는 초음속 제트유동의 특성은 노즐의 공급압력과 배압의 비에 따라 결정된다 노즐 배압에 상대적인 노즐 출구면에서 발생하는 압력의 크기에 따라 제트 유동은 과팽창, 적정팽창, 그리고 부족팽창의 형태로 된다. 종래 주로 단면이 원형인 초음속 노즐로부터 방출되는 자유제트에 관하여 많은 연구가 수행되어, 제트 유동의 특성이 비교적 잘 알려져 있다. 이들 연구 결과에 의하면, 제트 내부에서 발생하는 충격파 시스템은 노즐 출구면에서 유동의 팽창상태에 의존하게 되며, 제트 유동은 주위의 기체를 흔입(entrainment)하여, 유동의 하류방향으로 제트 폭이 확대되며, 유속은 감소하게 된다.

Seventy nine swollen commercially canned grapes and peaches were collected from wholesale and retail outlets in Seoul area for the investigation of the causes of their swell. Hydrogen generation and microbial spoilage were the only two common causes of can swelling. Nevertheless, the spoilage profile of the two products was different. Seventeen out of twenty one canned peaches were spoiled by microorganisms, while the rest of five were swollen due to hydrogen generation. In contrast, fifty one out of fifty eight canned grapes were swollen due to hydrogen generation, while the rest of seven were spoiled by microorganisms. Seventeen yeast and five bacterial strains were isolated and only the yeasts were identified to their genera and species. Saccharomyces cerevisiae was the most frequently isolated spoilage yeast, closely followed by Torulopsis stellata. Candida parapsilosis, Pichia kluyveri, Pichia membranaefaciens, Torulopsis globosa and Torulopsis lactis-condensi were also isolated but with lower frequencies.

Electricity can be generated when the natural gas passes through a turbo-expander pressure reduction system at natural gas pressure reduction stations. Efficiency of the turbo-expander depends on the ratio of the natural gas flow rates to the design flow rate of the turbo-expander. Therefore, the optimal conditions for the operation of the pressure reduction system can be determined by controlling the natural gas flow rates. In this study, we have calculated the electric energy generation depending on the natural gas flow rates at the two low-pressure reduction stations when the pressure of the natural gas is reduced from 17.5 bar to 8.5 bar and have found the optimal conditions for the turbo-expander pressure reduction system through the comparison with the calculation results. The turbo-expander generates the electric power efficiently for the high natural gas flow rates which variations are slight. The determined design flow rate of the turbo-expander has the highest coverage of the natural gas flow rates. The electricity generation is calculated as much as 9 MW(B station) and 12 MW(D station) at each pressure reduction station.

시멘트 모르터의 소성수축에 의한 균열을 방지하기 위해 소성수축 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 우리나라 봄철의 대표적인 기후인 온도 20$\pm$3$^{\circ}C$, 상대습도 55%, 풍속 3.5m/s의 기후조건으로 하였으며, 모르터의 물 시멘트 비, 시멘트 골재 비, 팽창재 사용, 플라이 애쉬 치환, 수분증발을 억제하기 위한 중점제 등을 사용하여 소성수축의 특성을 검토하였다. 연구 결과 소성수축 변형은 응결시간과 밀접한 관계가 있으며 응결시간이 빠를수록 변형은 크게 나타났다. 또한 물시멘트 비에 의해서도 소성수축 변형은 큰 것으로 나타났다. 모르터에서의 골재 비율이 작거나, 플라이 애쉬의 치환율이 클수록 소성수축 변형은 매우 크게 나타났다. 중점제의 사용은 소성수축 변형을 줄이는데 효과가 있었으며, 건조수축 보상용 팽창재의 사용은 소성수축 변형율을 크게 하는데 이는 ettringite 생성에 의한 물 시멘트 비의 감소효과를 가져오기 때문이다.

An aerodynamic rig test of a radial turbine for an auxiliary power unit (APU) was performed at a high-temperature turbine test facility at the Korea Aerospace Research Institute. The pressure ratio, Mach number, and flow coefficient in the rig test are the same as those under normal engine operation conditions. The design pressure ratio is 3.096, design test speed is 34909 rpm, and turbine inlet temperature is $160^{\circ}C$. The turbine has airfoil-type nozzles, and the diameter of the turbine wheel is 175.74 mm. The turbine map is experimentally measured, and the detailed flow at the turbine inlet is measured. The pressure distribution in the nozzle at both the hub and the shroud sides and the pressure distribution along the shroud casing of the turbine wheel were measured, and this confirmed that the expansion process in the turbine wheel is acceptable.
