Rational choice theory holds that the alternative with largest expected utility in the choice set should always be chosen. However, it is often observed that an alternative with the largest expected utility is not always chosen while the choice task itself being avoided. Such a choice phenomenon cannot be explained by the traditional expected utility maximization principle. The current study posits shows that such a phenomenon can be attributed to the gap between the expected perceived gain (or loss) and the expected perceived value. This study mathematically analyses the relationship between the expectation of an alternative's gains or losses over the reference point and its expected value, when the perceived gains or losses follow continuous probability distributions. The proposed expected value (EV) function can explain the effects of loss aversion and uncertainty on the evaluation of an alternative based on the prospect theory value function. The proposed function reveals why the expected gain of an alternative should exceed some positive threshold in order for the alternative to be chosen. The model also explains why none of the two equally or similarly attractive options is chosen when they are presented together, but either of them is chosen when presented alone. The EV function and EG-EV curve can extract and visualize the core tenets of the prospect theory more clearly than the value function itself.

In order to provide a source for nine phases suitable for 18-pulse ac to dc power, this paper proposes a new structure for a step-up asymmetrical delta-connected transformer for converting three-phase ac power to nine-phase ac power. The design allows for symmetry between the nine output voltages to improve the power quality of the supply current and to minimize the THD. The results show that this new structure proves the equality between the output voltages with $40^{\circ}-{\alpha}$ and $40^{\circ}+{\alpha}$ phase shifting and produces symmetrical output currents. This result in the elimination of harmonics in the network current and provides a simulated THD that is equal to 5.12 %. An experimental prototype of the step-up asymmetrical delta-autotransformer is developed in the laboratory and the obtained results give a network current with a THD that is equal to 5.35%. Furthermore, a finite element analysis with a 3D magnetic field model is made based on the dimensions of the 4kVA, 400 V laboratory prototype three-phase with three-limb delta-autotransformer with a six-stacked-core in each limb. The magnetic distribution flux, field intensity and magnetic energy are carried out under open-circuit operation or load-loss.

In this paper, effect of ceramic processing was investigated on the magnetic properties of low loss Mn-Zn ferrite. High frequency characteristics, high saturated magnetic flux density and high magnetic permeability and low magnetism loss are required for the development of Mn-Zn ferrite, which is parts in the communication. therefore, in order to improve Mn-Zn ferrite with a high frequency , it is important to have a minimal change of particles and to control the eddy current loss caused by high resistance of the stratum of particles and to reduce the hysteresis loss by uniform change of detailed structure. In this paper, we added $V_2O_5\;and\;CaCo_3$ to Mn-Zn Ferrite to achieve a high efficiency, low loss core material. The compositions are MnO : ZnO : $Fe_2O_3$ = 21 : 10 : 69 mol%. They were sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for Three hours. Initial permeability was measured at 0.1MHz. At 50mT, Power loss was measured by temperature changing at 100kHz.

Recently in the progress of electronic equipment, power transformer was considered an important part. To make power transformer with miniaturization, lightening, low Power, we need a high efficiency core material. In this paper, we added $V_2$$O_{5}$ and $CaCo_3$ to Mn-Zn Ferrite to make a high efficiency, low loss core material. The compositions are MnO : ZnO : $Fe_2$$O_3$=37 : 11 : 52 mol%. They were sintered at 1250 for Three hours. Initial permeability was measured at 0.1 MHz. At 200 mT, Power loss was measured by temperature changing at 25 KHz, 50 KHz, 100 KHz. When we added $V_2$$O_{5}$ and $CaCo_3$, 0.08 wt%, 0.05 wt% respectively, we get 415 ㎾/㎥ at 200 mT, 100 KHz, $60^{\circ}C$. We can reduce eddy current loss as a main loss of high frequency by addition of a little mount of $V_2$$O_{5}$ $CaCo_3$. So we can decrease the power transformer's power loss.

A new advanced safety feature of DVI+ (Direct Vessel Injection Plus) for the APR+ (Advanced Power Reactor Plus), to mitigate the ECC (Emergency Core Cooling) bypass fraction and to prevent switching an ECC outlet to a break flow inlet during a DVI line break, is presented for an advanced DVI system. In the current DVI system, the ECC water injected into the downcomer is easily shifted to the broken cold leg by a high steam cross flow which comes from the intact cold legs during the late reflood phase of a LBLOCA (Large Break Loss Of Coolant Accident)For the new DVI+ system, an ECBD (Emergency Core Barrel Duct) is installed on the outside of a core barrel cylinder. The ECBD has a gap (From the core barrel wall to the ECBD inner wall to the radial direction) of 3/25~7/25 of the downcomer annulus gap. The DVI nozzle and the ECBD are only connected by the ECC water jet, which is called a hydrodynamic water bridge, during the ECC injection period. Otherwise these two components are disconnected from each other without any pipes inside the downcomer. The ECBD is an ECC downward isolation flow sub-channel which protects the ECC water from the high speed steam crossflow in the downcomer annulus during a LOCA event. The injected ECC water flows downward into the lower downcomer through the ECBD without a strong entrainment to a steam cross flow. The outer downcomer annulus of the ECBD is the major steam flow zone coming from the intact cold leg during a LBLOCA. During a DVI line break, the separated DVI nozzle and ECBD have the effect of preventing the level of the cooling water from being lowered in the downcomer due to an inlet-outlet reverse phenomenon at the lowest position of the outlet of the ECBD.

We design a modified network architecture with condsidering current Internet network model and traffic characteristics, and propose EDCBT(Enhanced Dispersed Core-based Tree) multicast routing protocol, which enhances scalabity, reliability, end-to-end delay and resource utilization EDBCT adopts bidirectional dispersed shared trees and manages both of intradomain and interdomain multicast trees for a multicast group. Each regional multicast tree is estabilshed from its core router and they are interconnected by the operation between border routers on edges of each regional network. As a result, interdomain multicast tree can be easily established. We introduce a new concept named RBTS(Region-based Tree Switching), which dramatically enhances QoS and network utilization. Finally, protocol performance and the effect of core router location are evaluated with MIL3 OPNet network simulator, in terms of end-to-end delay, packet loss and throughput.

Double rectangular spiral thin-film inductors were fabricated using $Fe_{86.7}Zr_{3.3}B_{4}Ag_{6}$ thin film with high permeability and resistance, in which easy axis of magnetization of the thin-film was perpendicular or parallel to the current direction. The perpendicular geometry inductor revealed higher inductance than the parallel geometry one, because spin aligns of magnetic film were more easily along the field direction due to higher field intensity in the perpendicular geometry. The increase of the inductance, however, resulted in the decrease of resonance frequency. The permeability was monitored by annealing the thin-films at different temperatures. With increasing the permeability, the inductance increased, but total resistance also increased due to the increase in magnetic core loss. As the resonance frequency was higher in air-core inductor than in magnetic thin-film core inductor, it is suggested to increase the resonance frequency that the characteristic of air-core inductor rather than the magnetic properties of the thin-film should be enhanced..

With the object of developing a non-gap choke core, effects of annealing in oxygen atmosphere on magnetic properties for Fe$_{78}$Si$_{9}$B$_{13}$ amorphous alloy were investigated. After annealing for 2 hrs at 440 $^{\circ}C$, optimum magnetic properties for choke core were obtained, where the effective permeability was 180 and was almost constant up to several MHz, and the decrease in permeability upon large DC bias current of 12 A or DC bias magnetic field of 8,000 A/m was very little. Moreover the AC magnetic loss was very low as compared to the conventional choke cores. Upon the optimum annealing, the magnetic hysteresis loop was inclined accompanying the increase of coercive force and the appearance of fine crystallites of $\alpha$-Fe phase. The good choke core properties was considered to be due to the suppression of domain boundary motion and domain refinement by the crystallites.

Though the nuclear fusion system has been fused into hydro-nuclear based on thermodynamics by tokamak system, there has been no success story. Because it's impossible to confine high temperatured plasma long Time actually. New nuclear-fusion-system using this nuclear-fusion-method will gather toroidal-magnetic-field by putting Core Block(C shaped torus iron) and toroidal-aluminium coil into toroidal magnetic-field-aluminium. That will arrange the nuclear-fusion-route on a gap fallen out by a part of cut torus-core and mkee the toroidal-an electric-current flow and electrolyze the fusioned-material (an electrolyte) into troidal-electrocity. That consists of troidal-magnetic-fild coil, toroidal-coial fusioned- material, series circuit. So toroidal-electocity will be changed into filament-electrocity and be introjected into fusioned-material. In a sapce on filament-electrocity, the magnetic inhaling-powr will enlarge to input-electrocity outside. This will exceed the Coulomb force and reache the nuclear-fusion. By this phenomenon there be quantity-loss. By this process I could confirmed that Einstein euation$(E=mC^2)$ releases into thermal energy.

A transformer is a device that changes the current and voltage by electricity induced between coil and core steel, and it is composed of metals and insulating materials. In the core of the transformer, the thermal load is generated by electric loss and the high temperature can make the break of insulating. So we must cool down the temperature of transformer by external radiators. According to cooling fan's usage, there are two cooling types, OA(Oil Natural Air Natural) and FA(Oil Natural Air Forced). For this study, we used Fluent 6.2 and analyzed the cooling characteristic of radiator. we calculated 1-fin of detail modeling that is similar to honeycomb structure and multi-fin(18-fin) calculation for OA and FA types. For the sensitivity study, we have different positions(side, under) of cooling fans for forced convection of FA type. The calculation results were compared with the measurement data which obtained from 135.45/69kV ultra transformer flowrate and temperature test. The aim of the study is to assess the Fluent code prediction on the radiator calculation and to use the data for optimizing transformer radiator design.
