Aluminum plate heat exchanger, rotary wheel heat exchanger, and heat pipe heat exchanger have been used (or ventilation heat recovery in the air-conditioning system. The purpose of this research is to develop high efficiency plastic plate heat exchanger which can substitute aluminum plate heat exchanger. Because thermal conductivity of plastic is quite small compared to that of aluminum, various heat transfer enhancement techniques are applied in the design of plastic plates. Five types of heat exchanger model are designed and manufactured, which are plate type, plate-fin type, turbulent promoter type, corrugate type, and dimple type. Thermal performance and pressure loss of each heat exchangers are measured in various operating conditions, and compared each other. Test results show that heat transfer performance of corrugate type, turbulent promoter type, and dimple type are increases about $43\%$, $14\%$, and $33\%$ at the equivalent fan power compared to those of plate type, respectively. On the other hand, the heat transfer performance of plate-fin type decreases $9\%$ because fins can not play their own role.

The optical characteristics of high-power direct-lit white light-emitting diode (LED) lighting were investigated, where a quantum dot (QD) film was adopted to enhance the color-rendering index (CRI). The transmittance of the diffuser plate and the concentration of the QD film were varied in this study. The color coordinates and the correlated color temperature (CCT) did not show any appreciable change, while the CRI values increased slightly as the transmittance of the diffuser plate decreased. The investigated optical properties were nearly independent of the viewing angle, and the luminance distribution was close to Lambertian. The CCT decreased from approximately 6000 K to approximately 4000 K as the concentration of the QD film increased from 0 to 7.5 wt%, which was due to the enhanced red component in the emission spectrum. The CRI increased to approximately 95 for some optical configurations of the lighting. These results demonstrate that glare-free, color-changeable, high-rendering LED lighting can be realized by using a combination of a diffuser plate of appropriate transmittance and a red QD film.

The characteristics of high heat input (342kJ/cm) EG (Electro Gas Arc) welded joint of EH36-TM steel has been investigated. The weld metal microstructure consisted of fine acicular ferrite (AF), a little volume of polygonal ferrite (PF) and grain boundary ferrite (GBF). Charpy impact test results of the weld metal and heat affected zone (HAZ) met the requirement of classification rule (Min. 34J at $-20^{\circ}C$). In order to evaluate the relationship between the impact toughness property and the grain size of HAZ, the austenite grain size of HAZ was measured. The prior austenite grain size in Fusion line (F.L+0.1 mm) was about $350{\mu}m$. The grain size in F.L+1.5 mm was measured to be less than $30{\mu}m$ and this region was identified as being included in FGHAZ(Fine Grain HAZ). It is seen that as the austenite grain size decreases, the size of GBF, FSP (Ferrite Side Plate) become smaller and the impact toughness of HAZ increases. Therefore, the CGHAZ was considered to be area up to 1.3mm away from the fusion line. Results of TEM replica analysis for a welded joint implied that very small size ($0.8\sim1.2{\mu}m$) oxygen inclusions played a role of forming fine acicular ferrite in the weld metal. A large amount of (Ti, Mn, Al)xOy oxygen inclusions dispersed, and oxides density was measured to be 4,600-5,300 (ea/mm2). During the welding thermal cycle, the area near a fusion line was reheated to temperature exceeding $1400^{\circ}C$. However, the nitrides and carbides were not completely dissolved near the fusion line because of rapid heating and cooling rate. Instead, they might grow during the cooling process. TiC precipitates of about 50 ~ 100nm size dispersed near the fusion line.

As an important component of a fuel cell, the bipolar plate comprises a large proportion in the fuel cell's volume, weight and price. The bipolar plate is the most widely used; however, graphite bipolar plate is large in volume, brittle and therefore easily broken during assembling. In addition, due to its poor machinability, production costs a lot, unless mass production. Compared with the graphite bipolar plate, the metal bipolar plate has good machinability, high electric conductivity and strong mechanical strength; however, it corrodes easily and has a high contact resistance, so in order to prevent corrosion and reduce the contact resistance, the basic metal needs to be processed by use of electro polishing and coating. The water which is produced by electrochemical reactions in the fuel cell must be discharged smoothly. In this study, in order to prevent corrosion the processes of electro polishing and CrN coating were used. According to the presence or absence of these processes, the contact angles can be measured and different metal bipolar plates can be made, these plates can be used for comparing and analyzing the performance of the fuel cell.

It is positively necessary to study on the stiffness of a 13degree-type impact tester in order to improve the fracture prediction of impact testing in wheels using FE(finite-element) analysis. The 13degree-type impact tester consists of an impact striker, a wheel fixer, a steel plate, and four cylindrical rubbers. Important parts of the tester are the steel plate and four cylindrical rubbers which play a role of absorbing impact energy during impact testing. Because of these buffers, the RF(reaction force) variation of the lower part in the 13degree-type impact tester showed the tendency like a damped harmony oscillation during impact testing. In order to investigate the stiffness of a 13degree-type impact tester, this work measured each stiffness of a steel plate and cylindrical rubbers. The stiffness of a cylindrical rubber was measured using a compressive tester. On the other hand, the stiffness of a steel plate was predicted by simulating experimental method using FE analysis.

Vacuum chambers have wide application for a variety of purposes such as material processing, vacuum gauge calibration, etc. As the dynamic pressure generated in such chamber is non-uniform, in many industrial as well as research processes, it is vital to know the non-uniform gas distribution with associated gas flow regimes and the ways of minimizing these pressure non-uniformities. In the present work, the behavior of gas flow in a vacuum chamber, during continuous gas flow, is described in the pressure range 0.1-133 Pa and the effect of baffle plate in minimizing the pressure non-uniformities is investigated. It was observed that maximum deviations in the pressure occur near the gas inlet point and that the effect of baffle plate in minimizing the pressure non-uniformities is more obvious in the transitional flow regime.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the changes of a physiologic nature and the sedative parameters associated with dexmedetomidine and pethidine, in patients undergoing plate and screw removal surgery, after orthognathic surgery. Methods: Twenty-three patients were sedated with dexmedetomidine and pethidine during plate and screw removal, after orthognathic surgery. An initial loading dose of dexmedetomidine ($1.0{\mu}g/kg$ infused over 10 minutes) was followed by a maintenance dose ($1.0{\mu}g/kg/hr$). Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, oxygen saturation, and heart rate were monitored. Perioperative amnesia and anxiety were recorded. Results: Significant changes were found in the blood pressure and heart rate (Freidman test, P<0.05), but not in oxygen saturation (Freidman test, P>0.05). Amnesia during local injection was observed in eight patients (34.8%). Compared with the preoperative anxiety score, the intraoperative anxiety score was decreased. Conclusion: In this study, we found cardiovascular and respiratory stability in intravenous sedation using dexmedetomidine with pethidine, in plate and screw removal, after orthognathic surgery. Furthemore, intravenous sedation using dexmedetomidine with pethidine shows adequate analgesic and sedative effects.

Purpose: To present clinical results of proximal first metatarsal opening wedge osteotomy and low profile plate fixation in hallux valgus deformity. Materials and Methods: Thirty-two patients (39 feet) underwent surgery for hallux valgus deformity. Fourteen patients (18 feet; Group A) underwent proximal first metatarsal opening wedge osteotomy fixed with low profile titanium plate ($Arthrex^{(R)}$), and 18 patients (21 feet; Group B) underwent proximal chevron osteotomy with two K-wires. Improvement in hallux valgus angle (HVA), 1, 2 intermetatarsal angle (IMA), range of motion of 1st metatarsophalangeal joint, VAS score, and the length of first metatarsal on weight-bearing radiograph were evaluated preoperatively and at final follow-up. Results: HVA improved from $36.2{\pm}6.6$ degrees to $11.7{\pm}5.1$ degrees, and 1, 2 IMA improved from $15.7{\pm}2.6$ degrees to $7.2{\pm}1.9$ degrees. VAS score improved from $7.2{\pm}1.2$ to $1.4{\pm}0.9$. There were no significant differences clinically and radiologically. Conclusion: Proximal first metatarsal opening wedge osteotomy with stable fixation using low profile plate may be an effective surgical option for correction of hallux valgus deformity.
