  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of cerebral angiography in each energy level by using dual energy technique in CT. Methods were performed on 15 DE images and SE images of CT angiography. For the analysis of images, mean value, standard deviation, SNR and CNR value were determined by setting ROI on MCA, brain parenchyma tissue, and back ground. As a result of concurrent visual evaluation with Likert 5 point scale, the clearest MCA image was confirmed at DE 40 keV and SE 120 kVp(p>0.05). The SNR value of the SE image was measured to be similar to the 40 keV energy level of the DE image. The low energy level image of 40 keV and 50 keV was measured with a high SNR and the contrast ratio was higher than that of the high energy image.

  • This study analyzed CT values of radiolucent and radiopaque materials by energy region after selecting radiolucent and radiopaque materials at random using GE's DECT((Dual Energy Com-puted Tomography) at S University Hospital located in Gyeonggi-province from July through August in 2013. Besides, it drew out the most analogous energy region to the value of 120kVp CT, which is applied to existing SECT(Single Energy Computed Tomography), by utilizing the analysis method of CT values and tried to find out the most useful and appropriate materials when contrast was applied within visible area in clinical application. As a result, there was little decrease of CT value after 90KeV in the case of materials with low density and high moisture content such as normal saline, methyl-cellulose and gels used in ultra-sonic waves test; energy does not influence much on materials with extremely low or high density such as air and contrast medium; methyl-cellulose and gels used in ultra-sonic waves test are considered to be the most useful materials for clinical applications.

  • Use of dual phase steel are growing for its high strength and light weight in automobiles. The effect of the martensite volume fraction with various impact velocities on the strength, ductility and absorbed energy of dual phase (ferrite-martensite) steels were investigated in low carbon 1.5% Mn steels which were soaked at 700.deg. C, 730.deg. C, 780.deg. C, and brine quenched. Both the yield load and the maximum impact load increased when the martensite volume fraction increased, the loading time and the absorbed energy of the specimen decreased when the martensite volume fraction increased.

  • 소수 station의 수소분리정제를 위한 compact형 PSA 공정을 연구하였다. 기존 PSA 공정의 흡착탑이 차지하는 시스템의 공간을 줄이기 위하여 하나의 흡착탑 안에 다른 흡착탑을 넣어 흡착탑이 차지하는 공간을 최소화하였으며, 흡착탑 간의 열교환이 효과적으로 일어나도록 설계하였다. 수소 혼합물에 대한 활성탄으로 충진된 dual bed에서의 수소 혼합물에 대한 흡/탈착 동특성 실험을 실시하였으며, 시간에 따른 농도와 온도의 변화를 측정하였다. 수소 혼합물로는 $H_2/CO/CH_4/CO_2$ (69:2:3:26 vol.%) 를 사용하였으며, 흡착유량은 7LPM, 흡착압력은 9atm 조건에서 운전하였다. Inner bed와 outer bed의 성능은 각각의 열전달 특성의 차이로 인하여 다르게 나타났으나, 단일탑의 동특성보다는 우수한 성능을 보이고 있었다. 따라서 개발된 dual bed는 적은 부지를 차지하면서도, 보다 우수한 수소 분리 성능을 보일 수 있는 PSA 공정에 응용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • This paper presents a novel circuit topology of a high efficiency single-phase power conditioner. This power conditioner is composed of time-sharing sinewave absolute pulse width modulated boost chopper with a bypass diode in the first power processing stage and time-sharing sinewave pulse width modulated full-bridge inverter in the second power processing stage operated by time-sharing dual mode pulse pattern control scheme. The unique operating principle of the two power processing stage with time-sharing dual mode sinewave modulation scheme is described with a design example. This paper proposes also a sinewave tracking voltage controlled soft switching PWM boost chopper with a passive auxiliary edge-resonant snubber. The new conceptual operating principle of this novel power conditioner related to new energy utilization system is presented and discussed through the experimental results.

  • One of the unsolved problems of the natural gas dual fuel engine is that there is too much exhaust of Total Hydrogen Carbon(THC) at a low equivalent mixture ratio. To fix it, a natural gas mixed with hydrohen was applied to engine test. The results showed that the higher the mixture ratio of hydrogen to natural gas, the higher the combustion efficiency. And when the amount of the intake air is reached to 90% of WOT, the combustion efficiency was promoted. But, like a case making the injection timing earlier, the equivalent mixture ratio for the nocking limit decreases and the produce of NOx increases.

  • In order to reduce harmful substances such as particulates and nitric oxides emitted from diesel engine, man kinds of methodology like high pressure spray of diesel fuel oil, exhaust gas recirculation, emulsified fuel usage and dual fuelling have been studied. Dual fuelling of a diesel engine with hydrogen which is well-known as the clean fuel and has excellent combustibility is expected to be effective in reducing harmful substances from diesel engine. This experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of premixed hydrogen with intake air on the performance and particulate emission characteristics using a single cylinder, prechamber type diesel engine. As a result, it was clarified that a hydrogen-premixed diesel engine can be operated in the state of lower particulate emission and slightly aggravated fuel economy, compared with the conventional diesel engine.

  • This paper proposes an active leakage magnetic field (LMF) suppression scheme, which uses the dual-transmitter (DT) topology, for EV wireless charging systems (EVWCS). The two transmitter coils are coplanar, concentric and driven by separate inverters. The LMF components generated by the three coils cancel each other out to reduce the total field strength. This paper gives a detailed theoretical analysis on the operating principles of the proposed scheme. Finite element analysis is used to simulate the LMF distribution patterns. Experimental results show that when there is no coil misalignment, 97% of the LMF strength can be suppressed in a 1kW prototype. These results also show that the impact on efficiency is small. The trade-off between LMF suppression and efficiency is revealed, and a control strategy to balance these two objectives is presented.

  • The dual-fuel technology, which uses gaseous fuel as the main fuel and liquid as the pilot fuel, is an appealing technology for reducing the exhaust emissions. The current study proposes emission models based on ANFIS for a dual-fuel using producer gas (PG)-diesel engine. Emissions measurements were taken at different engine load levels and fuel injection timings. The proposed model predictions were examined using statistical methods. With R2 values in the range of 0.9903 to 0.9951, the established ANFIS model was found to be consistently robust in predicting emission characteristics. The mean absolute percentage deviate in range 1.9 to 4.6%, and mean squared error varies in range 0.0018 to 13.9%. The evaluation of the ANFIS model developed shows a reliable claim of intrinsic sensitivity, strength, and outstanding generalization. The presented meta-model can be used to simulate the engine's operation in order to create an efficient control tool.
