Binder harvesters introduced to Korea were originally designed to be used for Japonica varieties which are highly resistant to shattering. In order to improve the performance of the binder to Indica varieties which are easily shattered and have shorter stem, mechanical modifications of the binder are inevitable. Shattering losses of the binder can be classified into two major parts; one incurred before and one after binding operations. The latter has been evaluated as great as the former. Previous studies indicated that the high discharge losses resulted from a great impact force of the discharge arm on the rice bundle during the discharge process. This study was intended to theoretically analyze the discharge mechanism of four-bar linkage. For this purpose, two commercially available binder harvesters having a four-bar linkage as a discharge mechanism were analyzed. Using the results from the motion analysis and the other structural constraints of the machines, they were modified and experimentally compared with the machines without modification to see whether any decrease in grain losses was obtained. The results obtained in this study are summarized as follows: 1. The path, velocity and acceleration of discharge arm were computer analyzed by vector analysis. Using results of the analysis and intrinsic constraints of the binder, discharge mechanism was modified to reduce the impact force on bundle by discharge arm in the range where the discharge performance was not deteriorated. This modification of the discharge mechanism could be done with an aid of four-bar linkage synthesis technique. As a result, average velocity and acceleration of the discharge arm during the discharge process were reduced respectively by 19 percent and 33 percent for binder A, and 17 percent and 35 percent for binder B. 2. Through the modification of the discharge mechanism, discharge losses of binder A were reduced by 42-56 percent for Milyang 23, Poongsan and Hangang chal, and discharge losses of binder B were reduced by 13-20 percent for Milyang 23 and Poongsan. 3. Discharge losses were decreased as the bundle size became larger and the size effect on the decrease rate appeared more significant in the binders with modifications than in those without modifications.

TPolystyrene thin films are prepared by glow discharge of sytrene monomer vapor th establish the growth mechanism of organic thin films by the plasma polymerization. As the discharge parameters, discharge current(5mA-20mA), frequency (10kHz-50kHz, 13.56MHz), gaspressure (0.2torr-1.5torr), and discharge time(2min-12min)are adopted. Plasma-polymerized filmsof styrene vapor are identified as polystyrene by IR spectra. The thickness of plasma-polymerized films increases with gas pressure, frequency and discharge current in the region of the low frequency and below the allowed gas pressure where the polymerization occurs. It is suggested that the growth mechanism can be explained by ionic reaction in d.c. and low frequency region, and by radical reaction in high frequency region.

Ionizers are essential in various areas of manufacturing industries to protect electrostatic hazards and to reduce inferior products. For ion sources used in the charge neutralizers, there are corona discharge, soft X-ray, ultraviolet and glow discharge. Glow discharge has lots of attractive properties, such as lower discharge sustaining voltage, no generation of ozone, and so on. In this paper, we did an experimental study to trace the mechanism and stabilization of atmospheric pressure glow discharge using the several size and shape of electrodes. As an experimental result, to sustain conditions of atmospheric pressure glow discharge is that discharge voltage is 360V, discharge current is 12mA, apply frequency is 1kHz between electrodes when positive electrode is molybdenum(Mo) and negative electrode is copper(Cu). We confirmed that the mechanism and stabilization of atmospheric glow discharge is deeply concerned with the shape and material of electrode for discharge. Especially, glow discharge in atmospheric pressure was well generated and sustained according with the physical properties used electrode materials, example melting point, thermal conductivity, and etc.

전기 화재의 주요 원인 중 하나인 트래킹은 전기적 방전에 의한 물리적 현상으로 인식된다. 따라서 트래킹은 전계해석, 전자생성에 의한 도전성 경로, 기체방전이론을 기반으로 설명되어야 한다. 하지만, 이러한 사항을 반영한 연구논문은 드물다. 본 논문은 트래킹 진전에서 그들의 영향을 포함한 트래킹 진전 메커니즘을 제안하였다. 그 메커니즘의 제안을 위해, 트래킹 실험, 탄화진전 모델에 대한 전계해석, 연면방전 이론을 적용한 트래킹 진전과정에 대한 설명이 수행되었다. 트래킹 모의실험으로부터, 코로나 방전에서 트래킹 파괴까지 트래킹 진전의 각 단계에서 전류파형이 측정되었다. 전계해석은 탄화의 발생과 진전과정동안 건조대 표면의 전계와 전자생성을 위한 고전계 영역을 파악하기 위해 수행되었다. 본 논문에서 제안된 트래킹 메커니즘은 코로나 방전에 의한 전자사태, 양이온의 축적, 전자사태의 확장, 2차 전자사태, 스트리머, 도전성 경로에 의한 트래킹 파괴의 6단계로 구성된다. 트래킹 모의실험에서 측정된 펄스성 전류파형은 제안된 트래킹 메커니즘에 의해 설명될 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과는 화재의 원인인 트래킹을 검출하고, 내트래킹성을 높이는 데 필요한 기술 자료가 될 것이다.

The material removal mechanism of Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) process has been studied for several decades. However, understanding of the material removal mechanism is still a difficult problem because the mechanism involves complicated physical phenomena including plasma. Especially, for a micro-EDM process, due to the influence of the debris that is generated during the machining process, quantitative modeling of EDM becomes more complex. To understand better the effects of the debris in the micro-EDM process experimentally, a new approach has been introduced in this study. Using a specially designed workpiece holder, the debris generated during the EDM with various process conditions has been collected. Then, using a simulated environment using micro-sized metal powders, the influence of the debris during the single EDM discharge has been observed. The effects of EDM process parameters on the debris size and product quality are discussed.

In order to investigate the mechanism of electrochemical hydrogenation reaction on Zr-based Laves phase hydrogen storage alloy electrodes, electrochemical charge/discharge characteristics, potentiostatic/dynamic polarizations and electrocehmical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) of Zr-Ti-Mn-Ni and Zr-Ti-Mn-Ni-M(M=Fe, Co, Al) alloys were examined. Electrochemical discharge capacities of the alloys were quite different with gas charge capacities. Therefore, it was considered that discharge capacities of the alloys depend on electrochemical kinetic factors rather then thermodynamic ones. Discharge efficiencies were increased linearly with exchange current densities. The results of potentiostatic/dynamic polarization measurements showed that electrochemical charge and discharge reaction of Zr-based Laves phase hydrogen storage alloys is controlled by charge transfer process at the electrode surface. The EIS measurements also confirmed this result.

In this paper, the discharge phenomena of high frequency glow discharge in organic vapor are basically investigted to establish the growth mechanism and preparation technique for organic thin film. According to the increasing of discharge frequency, the discharge firing voltage(Vs) of organic vapor decreases. The dependence of discharge voltage(Vd) on gas pressure is generally in accord with Paschen's Law and Vd decreases as gas flow rate become larger, but increases as dischange current density become higher. And the values of Vd in organic vapor are generally higher than those of inorganic gas.

금속수소 전극의 방전시 일어나는 방전과정을 설명할 수 있는 방전반응기구에 대한 수학적 모델을 제시하였다. 유한요소법을 이용하여 방전도중의 전극전위의 변화와 금속수소 입자내의 수소농도분포를 계산할 수 있는 전산모사 프로그램을 개발하였다. 방전전류의 세기, 금속수소 입자의 크기, 금속수소입자 내에서의 수소의 확산계수 및 전극의 공극률 등을 변화시키면서 해석을 실시한 바에 의하면, 이러한 인자들이 복합적으로 작용하여 금속수소전극의 방전특성을 결정하고 금속수소 입자내의 수소의 이용율에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 고율방전을 하면서도 금속수소 입자내의 수소의 이용율을 높임으로써 금속수소 전극의 방전특성을 향상시키기 위해서는 전극설계인자들의 최적화가 필요함을 확인할 수 있었다.

AC-PDPs have recently achieved good performance and their image quality can sufficiently compete with the LCD TV. However, it is necessary more effort to improve the luminance and luminous efficacy in the PDP technology. The gas mixture ratio plays a very important role in discharge characteristics, but the mechanism of gas discharge is complex and complicated. In this paper, we investigate the mechanism of gas discharge with Ne+Xe miture ratio through zero and two dimensional fluid simulation.

As a fundamental experimental study for reliability improvement of lithium ion secondary battery, degradation mechanism was investigated by microscopic observation and acoustic emission monitoring. Microstructural observation of the decomposed battery after cycle test revealed mechanical and chemical damages such as interface delamination, microcrack of the electrodes, and solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). Acoustic emission (AE) signal was detected during charge and discharge of lithium ion battery to investigate relationships among cumulative count, discharge capacity, and microdamages. With increasing number of cycle, discharge capacity was decreased and AE cumulative count was observed to increase. Observed damages were attributed to sources of the detected AE signals.
