  • 목 적 : 3D 프린터는 입력한 도면을 바탕으로 3차원의 입체 모델을 만들어 낼 수 있는 장비이다. 이러한 특징을 이용하여 방사선치료시 bolus 사용으로 인한 피부와 bolus 사이의 air gap을 최소화 할 수 있는 bolus 제작이 가능하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 3D 프린터를 이용하여 customized bolus를 제작하여 air gap과 target 선량을 상품화된 1 cm bolus와 비교하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 왼쪽 chest wall에 돌출된 종양이 있는 RANDO phantom을 CT 모의치료기를 이용하여 영상 획득 후, CT DICOM 파일을 3D 프린터에 필요한 STL 파일로 변환시켰다. 이것을 이용하여 치료부위의 체표윤곽과 일치하면서 1 cm 두께를 유지하는 customized bolus 주형틀을 3D 프린터로 제작한 후 paraffin wax를 녹여 customized bolus를 만들었다. 이렇게 만들어진 customized bolus와 상품화된 1 cm bolus의 air gap을 확인하였고, air gap으로 인한 차이를 Eclipse를 이용하여 치료계획상 $D_{max}$, $D_{min}$, $D_{mean}$, $D_{95%}$$V_{95%}$를 비교하였다. 결 과 : customized bolus 제작 기간은 약 3일이 소요되었다. air gap 총 용적은 customized bolus는 평균 $3.9cm^3$, 상품화된 1 cm bolus는 평균 $29.6cm^3$이었다. 상품화된 1 cm bolus를 사용할 때보다 3D 프린터를 이용하여 제작한 customized bolus를 사용하는 것이 air gap을 최소화시켰다. 6 MV photon에서 customized bolus의 $D_{max}$, $D_{min}$, $D_{mean}$, $D_{95%}$, $V_{95%}$는 각각 102.8%, 88.1%, 99.1%, 95.0%, 94.4%이었고, 상품화된 1 cm bolus의 $D_{max}$, $D_{min}$, $D_{mean}$, $D_{95%}$, $V_{95%}$는 101.4%, 92.0%, 98.2%, 95.2%, 95.7%이었다. proton의 경우 customized bolus의 $D_{max}$, $D_{min}$, $D_{mean}$, $D_{95%}$, $V_{95%}$는 각각 104.1%, 84.0%, 101.2%, 95.1%, 99.8%이었고, 상품화된 1 cm bolus의 $D_{max}$, $D_{min}$, $D_{mean}$, $D_{95%}$, $V_{95%}$는 104.8%, 87.9%, 101.5%, 94.9%, 99.9%이었다. 이처럼 치료계획에서 customized bolus와 1 cm bolus 모두 GTV의 선량은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 GTV에 인접한 정상조직은 customized bolus의 선량이 더 적게 나타났다. 결 론 : 3D 프린터를 이용한 customized bolus가 표면이 일정하지 않은 치료부위에 사용 할 때 air gap을 줄이는 효과를 나타냈다. 그렇지만 상품화된 bolus와 피부 사이에 생기는 air gap은 target에서의 선량의 변화를 일으킬 만큼 많은 양이 아님을 알 수 있었다. 반면 chest wall에서는 air gap이 적을수록 선량이 감소함을 확인 할 수 있었다. customized bolus 제작 기간은 3일이 걸렸고, 고가의 제작비용이 든다는 문제점이 발생하였다. 따라서 3D 프린터 customized bolus의 상용화를 위해서는 저비용이고, bolus 사용으로 적합한 3D 프린터 재료 모색의 필요성이 있다고 사료된다.

  • The objective of this paper is to introduce the noise reduction characteristics of a double gap system, which is composed of two air-gaps and two partition sheets. The resonance of acoustic modes of an enclosed cavity can be effectively suppressed by installing the double gap system in the cavity. It is revealed from a simple, one-dimensional model that the double gap system is more effective than the single gap system that consists of one air-gap and one partition sheet, in that the former requires a smaller space than the latter. Finally, these theoretical conclusions are verified by comparison experiments using an actually manufactured enclosed cavity, of which the boundary surfaces are made of thick panels that can be assumed as rigid walls.

  • Counter-current two-phase flows of air- water in narrow rectangular channels with offset strip fins have been experimentally investigated in a 760 mm long and 100 mm wide test section with 3.0 and 5.0 mm gap widths. The two-phase flow regime, channel-average void fractions and two-phase pressure gradients were studied. Flow regime transition occurred at lower superficial velocities of air than in the channels without fins. In the bubbly and slug flow regimes, elongated bubbles rose along the subchannel formed by fins without lateral movement. The critical void fraction for the bubbly-to-slug transition was about 0.14 for the 3 mm gap channel and 0.2 for the 5 mm gap channel. respectively. Channel-average void fractions in the channels with fins were almost the same as those in the channels without fins. Void fractions increased as the gap width increased, especially at high superficial velocity of air. The presence of fins enhanced the two-phase distribution parameter significantly in the slug flow, where the effect of gap width was almost negligible. Superficial velocity of air dominated the two-phase pressure gradients. Liquid superficial velocity and channel gap width has only a minor effect on the pressure gradients.

  • The basic element of the EMS suspension is the electromagnet system, which suspends the vehicle without contact by attracting forces to the rails at the guideway. The suspension of a vehicle by attractive magnetic forces is inherently unstable and consequently it is continuously adjusted by the strength of the suspending electromagnet from rail irregularity and bending of the guideway. In order to improve reliable tracking, it needs to get feedback signals without measurement delay time. In this paper the concept of feedback control system with Kalman Filter in EMS is proposed. The input signals in the feedback control system are an air-gap and an acceleration signal. The air-gap signal with noise from the gap sensor is transformed to the filtered air-gap signal y without measurement delay time by using Kalman Filter. The filtered air-gap signal is transformed to a relative velocity and a relative acceleration signal. Then it multiplies these values by gain matrix in order to get the actuator's reference voltage value. The simulation results show that the dynamic responses of the suspension system can be improved by reducing the influence of measurement delay time of air-gap signals.

  • In this paper, effect of air gap thickness between absorber plate and glass cover on top heat loss of a closed loop oscillating heat pipe (CLOHP) solar collector was investigated. The CLOHP, which is made of copper with outer diameter of 3.2mm and inner diameter of 2.0mm, comprises 8 turns with heating, adiabatic and cooling section. The heating section of the heat pipe was attached to absorber plate which heated by solar simulator simulated by halogen lamps. The cooling section of the heat pipe was inserted into collector's cooling section that made of transparent acrylic. Temperatures of absorber plate, glass cover, and ambient air measured by K-type thermocouple and were recorded by MV2000-Yokogawa recorder. Top heat loss coefficients and top heat loss of the collector corresponding to some cases of air gap thickness were determined. The result of experiment shows the optimal air gap thickness for minimum top heat loss of this solar collector.

  • Acoustic streaming Induced by longitudinal vibration at 30 kHz is visualized for a test fluid flow between the stationary glass plate and ultrasonic vibrating surface with particle imaging velocimetry (PIV) To measure an increase in the velocity of air flow due to acoustic streaming, the velocity of air flow in a gap between the heat source and ultrasonic vibrator is obtained quantitatively using PIV. The ultrasonic wave propagating into air in the gap generates steady-state secondary vortex called acoustic streaming which enhances convective cooling of the stationary heat source. Heat transfer through air in the gap is represented by experimental convective heat transfer coefficient with respect to the gap. Theoretical analysis shows that gaps for maximum heat transfer enhancement are the multiple of half wavelength. Optimal gaps for the actual design are experimentally found to be half wavelength and one wavelength. A drastic temperature variation exists for the local axial direction of the vibrator according to the measurement of the temperature distribution in the gap. The acoustic streaming velocity of the test fluid in the gap is at maximum when the gap agrees with the multiples of half wavelength of the ultrasonic wave, which are specifically 6 mm and 12 mm.

  • It is difficult to calculate the magnetic force of an object of magnetic material in contact with other objects using the existing methods, such as Maxwell stress tensor method, magnetic charge method, or magnetizing current method. These methods are applicable for force computation only when the object is surrounded by air. The virtual air-gap concept has been proposed for calculating the contact force. However, its application is limited to magneto-static system. In this paper, we present the virtual air-gap concept for contact surface force in the eddy-current system. Its validity and usefulness are shown by comparison between numerical and experimental examples.

  • In this paper, it is presented that the effect of air gap insertion in testing the transmission loss of sound barrier using structural vibration system. In this study, we use the APAMAT based on the structure-borne-noise. The measured results show that air gap insertion improves transmission loss as results of test based on the air-borne-noise. The measured results are compared with the predicted transmission loss using the transfer matrix method. The predicted results were found to be in reasonable agreement with measured results.
