This study presents an investigation of the changes of the currents in Kwangyang Bay due to the construction of harbor, reclamation and coastal developments. Currents were simulated by the numerical experiments with a diagnostic multi-level model and using the seasonal oceanographic data of temperature, salinity and ocean current. The values of kinetic and potential energies for the currents were calculated in cases of three topographical changes; before coastal developments, the existing state and after completion of the development project in Kwangyang Bay. The changes of currents due to the coastal developments are as follow; Kinetic energies of tide induced residual currents and wind driven currents decreased by 35~40 percent and 5 percent respectively, however those of density currents increased by 10 percent since the decrease of the coastal areas. Kinetic energy of residual currents including tide induced residual currents, density currents and wind driven currents reduced by 10 percent compared with before the coastal developments. Decrease of current velocity was greatest in summer. Therefore, in summer it was assumed that the Kwangyang Bay is more easily polluted by stratification and decrease of residual current than before the coastal developments carried out.

Papermaking tobacco sheet is an important reclaimed process for cigarette making. Traditionally, the pressure driven membrane was often used to isolate the effective compounds from the tobacco sheet extract. However, this method is difficult to remove small ionic compounds. Besides, membrane fouling is a major problem for effective use of these pressure driven membrane technologies. In this study, the electrodialysis process is used to removal the chloride ions and nitrate ions, thus the smoking quality of papermaking tobacco sheet extract can get improved. Three types of electrolytes ($Na_2SO_4$, NaCl and HCl) are chosen to prevent the generation of precipitation. The results indicate that 0.1mol/L HCl at current density of $30mA/cm^2$ is the optimal condition for the electrodialysis process. The removal rates of the Cland $NO{_3}^-$ in tobacco sheet extract are 97% and 98.4%, respectively. The electrodialysis process cost was estimated to be 0.11$/L. Naturally, electrodialysis is not only technological feasible, environmental-friendly and economical-attractive for tobacco extract treatment.

We have developed a numerical model for a remote ICP(inductively coupled plasma) system in 2D and 3D with gas distribution configurations and confirmed it by plasma diagnostics. The ICP source has a Cu tube antenna wound along a quartz tube driven by a variable frequency rf power source($1.9{\sim}3.2$ MHz) for fast tuning without resort to motor driven variable capacitors. We investigated what conditions should be met to make the plasma remotely localized within the quartz tube region without charged particles' diffusing down to a substrate which is 300 mm below the source, using the numerical model. OES(optical emission spectroscopy), Langmuir probe measurements, and thermocouple measurement were used to verify it. To maintain ion current density at the substrate less than 0.1 $mA/cm^2$, two requirements were found to be necessary; higher gas pressure than 100 mTorr and smaller rf power than 1 kW for Ar.

Mechanically driven decomposition of intermetallics during mechanical milling(MM 1 was investigated. This process for Fe-Ce and Fe-Sn system was studied using conventional XRD, DSC, magnetization and alternative current susceptibility measurements. Mechanical alloying and milling form products of the following composition (in sequence of increasing Gecontent): $\alpha$(${\alpha}_1$) bcc solid solution, $\alpha$+$\beta$-phase ($Fe_{2-x}Ge$), $\beta$-phase, $\beta$+FeGe(B20), FeGE(B20), FeGe(B20)+$FeGe_2$,$FeGe_2$,$FeGe_2$+Ge, Ge. Incongruently melting intermetallics $Fe_6Ge_5$ and $Fe_2Ge_3$ decompose under milling. $Fe_6Ge_5$ produces mixture of $\hat{a}$-phase and FeGe(B20), $Fe_2Ge_3$ produces mixture of FeGe(B20) and $FeGe_2$ phases. These facts are in good agreement with the model that implies local melting as a mechanism of new phase for-mation during medchanical alloying. Stability of FeGe(B20) phase, which is also incongruently melting compound, is explained as a result of highest density of this phase in Fe-Ge system. Under mechanical milling (MM) in planetary ball mill, FeSn intermetallic decomposes with formation $Fe_5Sn_3$ and $FeSn_2$ phases, which have the biggest density among the phases of Fe-Sn system. If decomposition degree of FeSn is relatively small(<60%), milled powder shows superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature. For this case, magnetization curves can be fitted by superposition of two Langevin functions. particle sizes for ferromagnetic $Fe_5Sn_3$ phase determined from fitting parameters are in good agreement with crystalline sizes determined from XRD data and remiain approximately chageless during MM. The decomposition of FeSn is attributed to the effects of local temperature and local pressure produced by ball collisions.

This paper describes dual inverter drive for a fractional-slot concentrated winding permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM). PMSMs are widely used in many applications from small servo motors to few megawatts generators thanks to its high efficiency and torque density. Especially, fractional-slot concentrated winding PMSM is very popular in the applications where wide operation range is required because it shows very wide constant power speed ratios. High speed operation, however, requires lots of negative daxis current for reducing back-EMF regardless of output torque. Field weakening current does not contribute to the torque generation in surface mounted PMSM case and causes inverter and copper loss. To reduce the losses from field weakening current, this paper proposes PMSM with split stator and parallel dual inverter drive. Proposed parallel dual inverter drive reduces back-EMF and enables efficient drive at high speed and light load situation. Control strategy of proposed dual inverter system is established through loss analysis and simulation. Proposed concept is verified with practical experiment.

The synthesis of hollow ${Sb_93}{Pt_7}$ nanospheres smaller than 30 nm with a shell consisting of smaller nanoparticles, with an average particle size of ${\sim}$ 3 nm is reported. The formation of this alloy is driven by galvanic replacement reaction involving Sb nanoparticles and ${H_2}{PtCl_6} $ without need for any additional reductants. Further, the reaction proceeds selectively as long as the redox potential between two metals is favorable. The capacities of the hollow samples are 669 and 587mAh/g at rates of 1 and 7C, respectively, while those values for the nanoparticles are 647 and 480mAh/g at rates of 1, 7C, respectively. This result shows the significantly improved capacity retention of the hollow sample at higher C rates, indicating that high surface area of the hollow nanospheres makes the current density more effective than that for the solid counterpart.

In order to study the structure of RF glow discharge driven at 13.56MHz in argon, the discharge voltage, current and phase shift between them will be measured over a wide range of discharge parameters(gas pressure between 1mTorr and 50mTorr with discharge power between 20mW and 200W). In this paper, the dc glow discharge characteristics and plasma parameters of both FTS and CPMS systems are studied experimentally. It is found that for CPMS system discharge is stablized under wider ranges of magnetic field and pressure than for FTS system. The plasma density and electron temperature of the plasma for these two systems are in the range of $10^{10}{\sim}7{\times}10^{11}[cm^{-3}]$ and $3.5{\sim}6.5$[eV], respectively.

In this work, linear dynamics of a circulating fluid-fueled subcritical reactor system with temperature feedback and external neutron source was modeled and examined. In a circulating fluid-fuel system, the stable region is slightly moved by a circulation fluid effect. The effects of subcriticality and temperature feedback coefficient on the reactor stability were tested by calculating frequency response of neutron density originated from reactivity perturbation or external source oscillation of system. The amplitude transfer function has a different shape near subcritical region due to the exponential term in the transfer function. The results of the study show that at a slightly subcritical region, low frequency oscillation in accelerator current or reactivity can be amplified depending on the temperature feedback. However, as the subcriticality increases, the oscillation becomes negligible regardless of the magnitude of the temperature feedback coefficient.

Recently more attention is paid to the development of high-speed permanent magnet (PM) synchronous generators driven by gas-turbine, since they are conductive to high efficiency, high power density, small size, low weight, simple mechanical construction, easy maintenance and good reliability. In this paper, the performance analysis of a high-speed PM synchronous generator for military power application considering the min-max operating speed is presented. The output current and power versus DC-link voltage loci can obtained by solving the PM machine's steady-state equations for variable resistive load.

In this paper, approximate means of estimating the flux and torque levels in an induction motor is discussed. There exists several method that is used directly by flux meter and flux sensing coils in the airgap. Most of these methods are sensitive to motor parameter value changes. Also, the harmonics in the motor voltage and current due to the nonsinusodial inverter waveform cause errors in the estimated torque. Finally, this result is applicated in arch type linear induction motor for study of noise and vibration.
