An experimental investigation on the incipience of nucleate boiling in forced flow of water is performed as a verification and extension of previous analysis. The effects of the subcooling, Reynolds number and surface curvature on the onset of nucleate boiling(ONB) in a concentric annulus flow channel with smooth inner heating surface is investigated experimentaly. Through flow visualization, the boiling phenomenon was observed directly and the experimental results were examined to find ONB heat flux. The results show that the variation of heat flux at ONB is increased linearly as the Reynolds number and subcooling are increased. The effect of surface curvature is very great specially for a small radius when radius of the inner heating tube is increased, the heat flux at ONB is almost inversely increased for the range of this investigation. It is found that the effect of convex surface curvature on ONB heat flux is very significant for a small radius.

The green-emitting CeMgAl11O19:Tb (CMAT) phosphor has been prepared at 1200 °C by the simple solid-state reaction using AlF3 as a self-flux. This preparation temperature is much lower than those (1500-1700 °C) for conventional solid-state reaction and spray pyrolysis method. In particular, the complete process to produce high-quality phosphor particles was carried out through the single-step heat treatment of the mixture of corresponding oxide-type metal sources. An addition of AlF3 as a self-flux significantly decreased the crystallization temperature of CMAT with plate-like shape. The particle morphology could be controlled from plate-like to spherical by using H3BO3 as an additional flux. Thus, an optimal morphology and luminescence characteristics of CMAT were achieved when both AlF3 and H3BO3 fluxes were simultaneously used. Compared with conventional solid-state process, which is accompanied by the calcination step(s), and other alternative liquid solution techniques such as sol-gel method and spray pyrolysis, no use of active precursors and liquid media that are harmful to the environment is a distinctive advantage for the industrial purpose.

The aluminum was recovered from the middle size (Q1.0-12.0 mm) aluminum drosses using NaCl and KC1 mixuture as a basic salt flux. The maximum aluminum recovery was about 76.9% when 40% basic salt flux was added to aluminum dross at 850$^{\circ}$C for two hours. Also, aluminum remvery increased with increasing fluoride (1%-5%) addition to basic salt flux. But, there was no considerable effect due ta the increasing of viscosity when the fluorides were added over 5%, respectively. E s p d y , the most aluminum recovery was about 83.5% when 5% cryolite was added to 40% basic salt flux.

The flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) can apply the magnetic field into the high-$T_C$ superconducting(HTSC) element by adopting the magnetic field coil in its third winding. To apply the magnetic field into the HTSC element effectively, the capacitor for LC resonance is connected in series with the magnetic field coil. However, the current waveform of third winding for the application of the magnetic field is affected by the LC resonance condition for the frequency of the source voltage and can affect the waveform of the limited fault current. In this paper, the current waveform of the third winding in the flux-lock type SFCL according to LC resonance condition during a fault period was analyzed. From the differential equation for its electrical circuit, the current equation of the third winding was derived and described with the natural frequency and the damping ratio as design parameters. Through the analysis according to the design parameters of the third winding, the waveform of the limited fault current was confirmed to be influenced by the current waveform of the third winding and the design condition for the stable fault current limiting operation of this SFCL was obtained.

In nuclear fusion reactors, the key structural component (i.e., the plasma-facing component) undergoes high heat flux cyclic loading. To ensure the safety of fusion reactors, an experimental study on the temperature-induced creep of stainless steel under heat flux cyclic loading was performed in the present work. The strains were measured using a stereo digital image correlation technique (3D-DIC). The influence of the heat haze was eliminated, owing to the use of a vacuum environment. The specimen underwent heat flux cycles ($500^{\circ}C-1000^{\circ}C$) with different mechanical preloads (0 kN, 10 kN, 30 kN, and 50 kN). The results revealed that, for a relatively large preload (for example, 50 kN), a single temperature cycle can induce a residual strain of up to $15000{\mu}{\varepsilon}$.

We have grown AlN nanorods and AlN films using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy by changing the Al source flux. Plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy of AlN was performed on c-plane $Al_2O_3$ substrates with different levels of aluminum (Al) flux but with the same nitrogen flux. Growth behavior of AlN was strongly affected by Al flux, as determined by in-situ reflection high energy electron diffraction. Prior to the growth, nitridation of the $Al_2O_3$ substrate was performed and a two-dimensionally grown AlN layer was formed by the nitridation process, in which the epitaxial relationship was determined to be [11-20]AlN//[10-10]$Al_2O_3$, and [10-10]AlN//[11-20]$Al_2O_3$. In the growth of AlN films after nitridation, vertically aligned nanorod-structured AlN was grown with a growth rate of $1.6{\mu}m/h$, in which the growth direction was <0001>, for low Al flux. However, with high Al flux, Al droplets with diameters of about $8{\mu}m$ were found, which implies an Al-rich growth environment. With moderate Al flux conditions, epitaxial AlN films were grown. Growth was maintained in two-dimensional or three-dimensional growth mode depending on the Al flux during the growth; however, final growth occurred in three-dimensional growth mode. A lowest root mean square roughness of 0.6 nm (for $2{\mu}m{\times}2{\mu}m$ area) was obtained, which indicates a very flat surface.

Up to date, C-0 Finite Element Method which is the means for analyzing electric machinery can not be got the precision magnetic flux density because the magnetic flus density has the discontinuity in the interelement. To supplement this defect, we propose the C-1 finite element method of 9 D.O.F. in this paper. In this method, the vector potential and the magnetic flux density are continuous on the interelement and direction derivative of potential would be an unknown value. We developed the algorithm to apply this method. For examining the utility, we applied this method to analytic model and compared with the result of C-0 Finite Element Method using linear element.

The preparation of potassium hexatitanate whisker by flux method was investigated. In this study, 8 types synthesis of flux such as $V_2O_5$, $Bi_2O_3$, $B_2O_3$, $Pb_3O_4$, KCl, $K_4P_2O_7$, $K_2WO_4$ and $K_2MoO_4$ were tested to find a suitable flux for the synthesis of potassium hexatitanate whisker. Effects of various reaction variables such as reaction temperature, time, $TiO_2$ mole ratio to $K_2CO_3$, flux mole ratio to the mixture of $K_2CO_3$ and $TiO_2$, and slow-cooling treatment on the crystallization of potassium hexatitanate whisker were investigated. $K_2MoO_4$ and $K_2WO_4$ were better flux than others tested for the synthesis of potassium hexatitanate. In the presence of $K_2MoO_4$ or $K_2WO_4$ flux, the optimum condition for the synthesis of potassium hexatitanate whisker was that reaction temperature of $1000{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$, reaction time of 5 hours, $TiO_2$ mole ratio to $K_2CO_3$ of 6.0, and flux mole ratio to mixture ($K_2O+nTiO_2$) of 4.0. Slow-cooling treatment showed good effect on the growth of long fibrous potassium hexatitanate.

We reinvestigate UV line emissions of 44i Boo, W UMa, AW UMa and VW Cep, which are indicaters of chromospheric activity of these stars. C I, C II, C IV, Si IV lines show significant variation in orbital phase. Among those lines, the Line of C IV showed the strongest line flux. while other Si IV and N V lines showed relative low line intensities. 44i Boo emitted the strongest flux than other stars. UV light curves of target stars shoed UV maximum at phase around 0.2 an 0.8 Such UV emissions are generally believed to be observed at the active regions and contacting parts of the two stars due to the clear visibility at the phase 0.2 and 0.8. Total emissivity of four transitions lines lead to conclude that the activity of this region is 40 times larger than the quiet sun. It is obvious that the activity decrease according to increase period. We obtained also Mg II light curve of AW UMA and VW Cep. These stars showed more clearly phase-dependent light curves. We estimated effective temperature of two star, AW UMa and VW Cep, using by Mg II flux.

The effect of $C_2Cl_6$ for preventing to the surface oxidation and ignition of molten Mg alloy was studied with metallographic analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The alloy used for this study was AM100A Mg casting alloy with high strength. In order to investigate the surface protective characteristic of this molten alloy by $C_2Cl_6$ addition, we added them into molten AM100A alloy at $700^{\circ}C$ and then the melts were slowly cooled under a protective atmosphere of air containing Ar gas and $C_2Cl_6$ flux addition. The result found that the surface oxidation and ignition reaction of molten AM100A Mg alloy by adding $C_2Cl_6$ flux was more slowly occurred than that of the only a protective atmosphere of containing Ar gas with increasing time. This result was due to a dense protective film formed containing $MgCl_2$ on surface of molten Mg alloy during casting and solidification. The $MgCl_2$ was formed by a reaction of $C_2Cl_6$ with molten Mg.
