This research aims to increase the reliability and reproducibility of the ambient cycling test by properly making corrections to the test procedure. The vessel (106 L) is initially filled with 70 L of water and horizontally placed on a balance. The pressure range inside the vessel varies from 2.5 to 25.9 MPa at the frequency of 6 cycles per minute. After reviewing the results, there was a temperature difference of approximately $10^{\circ}C$ between the air pocket and the water, and the upper part of the liner faced a repeated temperature change of $40^{\circ}C$. It is possible for the aluminum liner of the composite vessel to be damaged by such a sharp change in temperature. Additionally, as a result, no pass having anything to do with the purpose of the test would occur. Therefore, it is suggested that the air pocket be completely removed.

This study aims to analyse the influence of steam injection on the performance of hybrid systems combining a solid oxide fuel cell and a gas turbine. The steam is generated by recovering heat from the exhaust gas. Two system configurations, with difference being the operating pressure of the SOFC, are examined and effects of steam injection on performances of the two systems are compared. Two representative gas turbine pressure ratios are simulated and a wide range of both the fuel cell temperature and the turbine inlet temperature is examined. Without steam injection, the pressurized system generally exhibits better system efficiency than the ambient pressure system. Steam injection increases system power capacity for all design cases. However, its effect on system efficiency varies much depending on design conditions. The pressurized system hardly takes advantage of the steam injection in terms of the system efficiency. On the other hand, steam injection contributes to the efficiency improvement of the ambient pressure system in some design conditions. A higher pressure ratio provides a better chance of efficiency increase due to steam injection.

This article describes the output properties of non-dispersive infrared carbon dioxide($CO_2$) sensors resulting from the changes in ambient temperatures. After the developed sensor module was installed inside the gas chamber, the temperature was set to 267 K, 277 K, 300 K, and 314 K, and the concentrations of $CO_2$ gas were increased from 0 to 5,000 ppm. Then, the output voltage at each concentration was obtained. Through these experimental results, two observations were made. First, both the $CO_2$ sensor and the reference sensor showed an increase in the output voltages as the temperature rose from 0 ppm, Second, the full scale outputs of the $CO_2$ sensor grew as the temperature increased. The output characteristics were analyzed based on two factors: change in the radiant energy of the infrared light source and change in the absorptivity of $CO_2$ gas according to the ambient temperature. Additionally, temperature compensation methods were discussed.

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) has been used as motor fuel due to its low emissions and low cost. A liquid direct injection system into a cylinder was suggested as a next generation system to maximize a fuel economy as well as a power. This study addresses the analysis of the LPG spray injecting from single hole injector. Two different test conditions are given, which are a fully developed spray case with various injection pressures and a developing spray case with ambient pressure variation. The LPG spray photographs are compared with the sprays of gasoline and diesel fuel at the same conditions, and the spray angles and penetration lengths are also compared, and then the spray behavior is analyzed. The LPG spray photos show that the dispersion characteristic depends very sensitively on the ambient pressure soon after injection. The spray angle is very wide in a low ambient pressure condition until the saturated pressure, but the angle is quickly reduced at the condition over the pressure. However, the down stream of the LPG spray shows much wider dispersion and less penetration than those of gasoline and diesel sprays regardless ambient pressure condition.

The characteristics of spray has much effect on performance and emissions for automobile, diesel engine, gas turbine and combustion engines. So spray behavior after impinging the wall is very important for prediction the engine performance. This studies examined about impingement spray considering ambient density(18,24,30kg/ms), temperature(293,473K), impingement angle(0,30,45°). The images of impingement spray were obtained by the high speed video camera. After that we analyzed impingement spray characteristics to use this images. In this experiment, we found that 1) The spray width is reduced by increasing the ambient gas density and temperature,2) The growth of downstream is increased by increasing the impingement angle.

This study was undertaken to investigate tribology characteristics of the alumina ceramics($Al_2O_3$) of the various purity for the variation of ambient condition such as air and vacuum. The wear test was carried out under different experimental condition using the wear test device, which was designed for this study, and in which the annular surface of wear testing specimens as well as mate specimen made of STB2 steel, were subjected to sliding speed, applied load and the sliding distance. The results obtained were as follows. As the ambient pressure decreases, the friction coefficient increases because the protective layer made of absorption due to decrease of the amount of ambient gas can not be formed. As the friction coefficient paticularly for 85% alumina lower than 95% and 99.7% in the alumina purity increases by an influence of heat accumulation caused by small elastic modulus and thermal conductivity. The friction surface of ceramics can be protected in the air by the influence of the oxides transfered from STB2. However, in the vacuum, the protective layer made of the absorption substance can not be formed due to the decrease of ambient gas.

The instability wave formed near nozzle region grows to vortex with large scale in downstream region of spray. It plays an important role in the fuel-air mixing, combustion process and engine exhaust emissions in direct injection diesel engine. The objective of this study is to analyze effect of variant parameters (injection pressure, ambient gas density, etc.) and fuel properties on spray instability near nozzle region. Spray structure near nozzle region was investigated using a magnification photograph. A pulsed Nd-YAG laser was used as a light source, and image was taken by CCD camera. The following conclusions are drawn from this experimental analysis. In low ambient density, the effect of fuel properties on spray instability near nozzle region is dominant. In high ambient density, the effect of ambient gas on spray instability near nozzle region is dominant. High jet velocity has strong influence on spray instability.

$MgB_2$ bulk samples were sintered at different ambient. In this work, high purity Ar gas was added with oxygen and hydrogen gas, which can be regarded as impurity in a sense, as a possible dopant in the $MgB_2$. It was found that oxygen in the sintering ambient leads to a decrease in the critical current density $J_c$ at self field and lower fields. However, we can obtained higher $J_c$ at higher fields. It was also noted that $MgB_2$ samples sintered with 5% hydrogen in Ar revealed the increased $J_c$ at all fields compared to those processed in pure Ar ambient. From the XRD and FESEM analysis, the impurity gas in Ar can refine the $MgB_2$ grain size and result in increased grain. boundary, which can act as a strong flux pinning sites in $MgB_2$ samples. Also discussed are the effects of sintering ambient on irreversibility field, $H_{irr}$ and the upper critical field, $H_{C2}$.

Drop size is one of the most important parameters which are control the performance of the engine using liquid fuel/oxidizer and drop formation is mainly controlled by aerodynamic force caused by ambient gas. Because of this, empirical data and correlation acquired under standard ambient condition are not valid. So experiments under high ambient pressure condition to measure the drop size using image processing method And find the empirical correlation between SMD and chamber pressure(density), injection velocity.
