Synthesis of carbon nanomaterials on a metal substrate by an ethylene fueled inverse diffusion flame was illustrated. Two stainless steel plates coated with $Ni(NO_3){_2}$ were folded with each other and used as a catalytic metal substrate. Carbon nanotubes and nanofibers with diameters of 20 - 60nm were found on the substrate. From the TEM-EDS analyses, most of the nanomaterials turned out to be Nicatalyzed. Carbon nanotubes were formed on the substrate in the region ranging from about 1,400K to 900K. The formation mechanisms of nanotubes and nanofibers were similar. The synthesis temperature of the nanofibers was lower than that of the nanotubes. The higher synthesis temperature of nanotubes might enhance the activity of the catalyst metal and produce more condensed carbons. The accumulated graphite layers led to form compartments to release the compressive stress in the layers. The growth of carbon nanotubes was bamboo-shaped showing compartments in the inside hollow. The distances between those compartments represented the growth rate that depended on the synthesis temperature.

A modification of the TEACH-like computer program based on the k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence transport was applied for predicting air mixing patterns and temperature distributions in a rectangular, slot-ventilated enclosure having obstructions ; a rectangular obstacle with heat flux, solid walls separates the passage and the pig pens, and purlins beneath the ceiling. Air flow patterns were calculated for the cases with and without the purlin, extending 300mm beneath the ceiling. Comparisons of prediction data of Randall & Battams(1976) showed air flow pattern predicted well for the case without the purlin. Heat was accumulated at the corner of the left side of the solid wall and the right-upper region of the simulated pigs. However the air distribution pattern was completely different from data for the case with the purlin. The deviation from the observation may be attributed to the difference of the geometric configuation. Exploring the cause of the deviation should be conducted in a further study. Temperature stratification was also observed due to incomplete mixing. The obstruction in the route of the inlet air jet at inlet should be avoided since most of kinetic energy dissipates at the abstacle duet to impingement.

Food policy is considered as the most basic and central issue for all countries, while making efforts to keep each country's food sovereignty and enhance food self-sufficiency. In the case of Korea where the staple food is rice, the rice yield prediction is regarded as a very important task to cope with unstable food supply at a national level. In this study, Korean paddy Rice yield Prediction Model (KRPM) developed to predict the paddy rice yield using meteorological element and MODIS NDVI. A multiple linear regression analysis was carried out by using the NDVI extracted from satellite image. Six meteorological elements include average temperature; maximum temperature; minimum temperature; rainfall; accumulated rainfall and duration of sunshine. Concerning the evaluation for the applicability of the KRPM, the accuracy assessment was carried out through correlation analysis between predicted and provided data by the National Statistical Office of paddy rice yield in 2011. The 2011 predicted yield of paddy rice by KRPM was 505 kg/10a at whole country level and 487 kg/10a by agroclimatic zones using stepwise regression while the predicted value by KOrea Statistical Information Service was 532 kg/10a. The characteristics of changes in paddy rice yield according to NDVI and other meteorological elements were well reflected by the KRPM.

The Breakdown properties of epoxy composites are used for transformers and sensor, which has been studied. As a result, From the measurements of breakdown voltage, the more hardener is increased the stronger breakdown strength at low temperature because the ester of hardener is increased. Breakdown strength at the high temperature is decreased because the temperature at $110^{\circ}C$ is near at $T_g$. When the filler is added, between epoxy and silica is formed interface. Therefore the charge is accumulated in it, and the electric field is concentrated, and breakdown strength is decreased than non-filled specimens. In the case of specimens, the treated with silane, the breakdown strength becomes much higher since this is suggested that silane coupling agent has been improved chemical bonding in the interfaces and has been relaxed the electric filed concentration.

Decay processes of accumulated charge in e-beam irradiated polymers during elevating temperature are observed using pulsed electro-acoustic measurement system. Since the polymeric materials have many superior properties such as light-weight, good mechanical strength, high flexibility and low cost, they are inevitable materials for spacecrafts. In space environment, however, the polymers sometimes have serious damage by irradiation of high energy charged particles. When the polymers of the spacecraft are irradiated by high energy charged particles, some of injected charges accumulate and remain for long time in the bulk of the polymers. Since the bulk charges sometimes cause the degradation or breakdown of the materials, the investigation of the charging and the decay processes in polymeric materials under change of temperature is important to decide an adequate material for the spacecrafts. By measuring the charge behavior in e-beam irradiated polymer, such as polyimide or polystyrene, it is found that the various accumulation and decay patterns are observed in each material. The results seem to be useful and be helpful to progress in the reliability of the polymers for the spacecraft.

DC-link capacitors are reliability-critical components in a photovoltaic (PV) inverter. Typically, the lifetime of a DC-link capacitor is evaluated by considering the voltage and hot-spot temperature of the capacitor under the specific operating condition of the PV inverter. However, the output of the PV inverter is determined by solar irradiation and ambient temperature, which vary with the seasons; accordingly, the hot-spot temperature of the capacitor also changes. Therefore, the mission profile of the PV system should be considered to effectively evaluate the reliability of the DC-link capacitor. In this study, the reliability of the DC-link capacitor of a three-level NPC inverter is comparatively analyzed with and without considering the mission profiles of the PV system, where two mission profiles recorded in Arizona and Iza are considered. The accumulated damage of the DC-link capacitor is calculated based on the lifetime model by analyzing its thermal loading. Afterward, a reliability evaluation of the DC-link capacitor is performed at the component level and then at the system level by considering all capacitors by means of Monte Carlo analysis. Results reveal the importance of performing a mission-profile-based reliability evaluation during the design of high-reliability PV inverters to achieve the target reliability performance.

To realize an initial objective of the negative ion-based neutral beam injection (N-NBI) at the Comprehensive Research Facility for Fusion Technology (CRAFT) test facility, which targets an H⁰ beam power of 2 MW at an energy of 200-400 keV and a pulse duration of 100 s, it is crucial to study the cesium dynamics of the negative ion source. Here a numerical simulation program CSFC3D is developed and applied to simulate the distribution and time dynamics of cesium during short pulses. The calculations show that most of the cesium on the plasma grid (PG) area originates from the release of cesium that is accumulated within the ion source in the plasma phase. Increasing the wall temperature reduces the loss of cesium on the wall of the ion source. Furthermore, the thickness of the cesium monolayer is directly influenced by the PG temperature. Both simulated and experimental results demonstrate that maintaining the PG temperature between 180 ℃ and 200 ℃ is essential for enhancing the performance of the ion source and optimizing the cesium behavior.

저온환경에서 석유생산이 이루어질 경우 유동관, 라이저와 같은 석유생산시스템 내에서 온도에 민감한 왁스 고형물이 빈번히 집적되어 석유 이송을 방해하거나 배관을 막아 유동안정성 확보를 위한 시간 소모와 경제적 손실이 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 왁스 집적 문제를 제어하기 위해 오일 내 왁스가 처음 석출되기 시작하는 온도인 왁스생성온도를 사전에 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 기존 왁스생성온도 표준측정법은 왁스결정 석출로 인하여 변하는 시료의 혼탁도를 육안으로 확인하는 한계가 있으며, 오일의 연속적인 온도변화를 측정하기 어려워 정확도가 낮다. 이 연구에서는 오일의 왁스생성온도를 정확하게 측정하고자 왁스생성온도 측정 가시화 실험시스템을 통해 시간에 따라 온도를 감소시키며 왁스생성거동을 촬영하였다. 또한 영상 처리기법으로 투명 오일시료의 명도변화를 분석하여 왁스생성온도를 측정하였으며, 이를 표준측정법의 결과와 비교분석하였다.

본 연구에서는 고온에 노출된 GFRP 보강근과 고온에 노출된 후 알칼리용액에 노출된 보강근의 단면을 현미경을 통해 관찰하고 발생된 손상의 특징을 고찰하였다. 또한, 각 시험체에 발생한 레진 균열과 공극에 대한 정량적 분석을 실시하였다. 알칼리로 인한 손상은 주로 표면에 집중되며 레진균열과 작은 공극을 발생시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 고온노출에 의한 손상은 레진균열과 공극을 발생시키는 것은 알칼리와 동일하지만 전단면에서 발생하며, 공극의 크기가 훨씬 크다. 또한 정량분석 결과, 동일한 알칼리 용액 노출조건에도 불구하고, $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에 노출된 시편에서 발견된 레진 균열과 공극이 고온노출이력이 전혀 없는 보강근에서 발견된 것 보다 1.5 및 1.4배 큰 것으로 확인되었다. 그러므로 동일한 알칼리 노출 조건이라 할지라도 $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에 노출된 보강근은 고온노출이력이 없는 보강근에 비하여 레진의 열화가 가속화 될 가능성이 있음을 알 수 있다.

선박 건조과정에서 이면부의 도장손상은 용접과정에서 과도한 입열량(heat input)에 따른 전도의 영향으로 손상 방지를 위해서는 용접온도 계측에 의한 적절한 입열량 제어가 필요하다. 온도 계측에는 접촉식, 비접촉식 방법이 있으며 열화상 시스템은 대표적인 비접촉식 방법이다. 하지만 일반적인 열화상 시스템의 탐지센서(detector)는 고온물체에서 방출되는 복사량(radiant quantity)이 과도하면 백화현상(saturation)으로 인해 온도계측이 불가능해진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 열화상 시스템에 집속되는 과도한 복사량을 차단하기 위해 중성밀도필터(neutral density filter)를 결합하여 고온 물체의 온도를 $3000^{\circ}C$까지 정량적으로 계측하기 위한 복사 에너지 필터링을 연구하였다.
