  • he Reactor Coolant Gas Vent System(RCGVS) design for Ulchin Nuclear Power Plant Units 3&4(UCN 3&4) has been improved from the Yonggwang Nuclear Power Plant Units 3&4(YGN 3&4) based on the evaluation results for depressurization capability tests performed at YGN 3&4. There has been a series of plant safety analyses for Natural Circulation Cooldown(NCC) event and thermo-dynamic analyses with RELAP5 code for the steam blowdown Phenomena in order to optimize the orifice size of UCN 3&4 RCGVS. Baesd on these analyses results, the RCGVS orifice size for UCN 3&4 has been reduced to 9/32 inch from the l1/32 inch for YGN 3&4. The depressurization capability tests, which were performed at UCN 3 in order to verify the FSAR NCC analysis results, show that the RCGVS depressurization rates are being within the acceptable ranges. Therefore, it is concluded that the orificed flow path of UCN 3&4 RCGVS is adequately designed, and can provide the safety-grade depressurization capability required for a safe plant operation.

  • It is known that the diffuse $H{\alpha}$ emission outside of bright H II regions not only are very extended, but also can occur in distinct patches or filaments far from H II regions, and the line ratios of [S II] ${\lambda}6716/H{\alpha}$ and [N II] ${\lambda}6583/H{\alpha}$ observed far from bright H II regions are generally higher than those in the H II regions. These observations have been regarded as evidence against the dust-scattering origin of the diffuse $H{\alpha}$ emission (including other optical lines), and the effect of dust scattering has been neglected in studies on the diffuse $H{\alpha}$ emission. However, as opposed to the previous contention, the expected dust-scattered $H{\alpha}$ halos surrounding H II regions are, in fact, in good agreement with the observed $H{\alpha}$ morphology. We find that the observed line ratios of [S II]/$H{\alpha}$, [N II]/$H{\alpha}$, and He I ${\lambda}5876/H{\alpha}$ in the diffuse ISM accord well with the dust-scattered halos around H II regions, which are photoionized by late O- and/or early B-type stars. We also demonstrate that the $H{\alpha}$ absorption feature in the underlying continuum from the dust-scattered starlight ("diffuse galactic light") and unresolved stars is able to substantially increase the [S II]/$H{\alpha}$ and [N II]/$H{\alpha}$ line ratios in the diffuse ISM.

  • This paper describes the breakdown characteristics of GIS by the free conducting particles under alternating voltage. If the conducting particles are present within the GIS, they can cause decrease in breakdown voltages. Various materials and sizes of free conducting particles were used to study the liftoff electric field and breakdown voltage. The measured lift-off electric fields were compared with the calculated ones for copper, steel and aluminium wire-type conducting particles. As an experimental result, it is shown that the breakdown voltages of the GIS chamber with conducting particles were lower than those without conducting particles, and were markedly dependent on the particle material and the particle sizes. Free conducting particles are important factor in particle-triggered breakdown of the GIS.he GIS.

  • This paper shows a basic data of the surface discharge characteristics for epoxy resin in Dry-Air as being focused on environmentally friendly insulating Gas. Used electrodes are needle to plane, sphere to plane and KS M3015 electrodes. With the changing electrodes in same condition, we can obtain different creeping lengths, surface discharge voltages and surface dielectric strengths, respectively. Surface dielectric strengths of Needle to plane electrodes are more higher than the others. Moreover, it is considered that the surface discharge characteristics with variation of epoxy resin thickness and diameter. Surface discharge voltage increases as the thickness and the diameter of epoxy resin.

  • 고밀도 트렌치 공정을 위해 HBr 가스를 주로하고 $CF_4$, $SiF_4$, $NF_3$, He-$O_2$ 등을 첨가 가스로 이용하여 트렌치 공정을 하였다. 트렌치 공정시 첨가가스 비에 따라 트렌치 형상이 다양하게 되었다. 이러한 형상은 트렌치 소자 제조시 트렌치 내부를 채울 경우 여러 가지 어려움이 발생되는데, 특히 트렌치 내부가 잘 채워지지 않고 void가 생길 경우 소자의 신뢰성에 많은 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 고밀도 트렌치를 병렬로 형성한 후 형성된 트렌치 내부를 잘 채울수 있는 고밀도 트렌치 공정을 연구하였다. 트렌치 형성시 HBr을 주가스로 하고, $NF_3$, $CF_4$, $SiF_4$ 를 비율을 각각 59:27:7:7로 했을 때 수십만 트렌치 형성 각도가 약 $89^{\circ}$로 매우 좋은 형상을 얻었다.

  • We have identified local analogs of strong $H{\alpha}$ Emitters (HAEs) that dominate the z~4 Lyman-break galaxy population using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). At z<0.4, only 0.04% of galaxies are classified as HAEs with $H{\alpha}$ equivalent width larger than $500{\AA}$, comparable to that of z~4 HAEs. The $H{\alpha}$-to-UV luminosity ratio of local HAEs is consistent with that of z~4 HAEs, indicating relatively large specific star formation rate in these galaxies compared to traditionally studied UV-selected Lyman break analogs. Local HAEs are young, less evolved galaxies with low metallicity. It is still difficult to constrain whether the star formation in local HAEs is powered by minor mergers or by cosmological cold gas accretion. However, the stacked optical spectrum of local HAEs shows several strong ionization lines, for example HeII 4686 emission line, which are shown in Wolf-Rayet galaxies. Thus it is highly likely that local HAEs are galaxies with an elevated ionization parameter, either due to a high electron density or large escape fraction of hydrogen ionizing photons.

  • The hydrogen or oxygen gas producted by electrolysis become many bubbles in the electrolyte, but exact data on the behavior of these bubbles in the separator of an electrolysis stack didn't become known. In this study, the flow visualization experiment on the behavior of bubbles in the flow pattern of the array type separator is performed by using of a visible alkaline electrolysis stack and a stereoscopic microscope. As the results, a fine size bubbles adhered to the surface of the flow pattern grow to large sized bubbles until each bubble's buoyance is lager than the sum of external force and weight. And then the large bubbles flow into the upper area of the separator. Bubbles adhered to the surface of the vertical flow pattern grow quickly than them adhered to the surface of the horizontal flow pattern. Also, he electrolysis efficiency is declined because many multi-size bubbles occupied the wide volume in the flow pattern.

  • We propose a pulsed $CO_2$laser below 30W by the AC(60Hz) switching control of leakage transformer primary which has some advantages of cost and size compared to a typical pulsed power supply. Pulse repetition rate is adjusted from 5 Hz to 60 to Hz control laser output. In this laser a low voltage open loop control for high voltage pulse discharge circuit is employed to aviod the Hv sampling or switching and high voltage leakage transformer is used to convert low voltage pulse rectified from AC to high voltage one. A ZCS(Zero Crossing Switch) circuit and a PIC(programble one-chip microprocessor are used to control gate signal of SCR precisely. The pulse repetition rate is limited by 60Hz due to the frequency of AC line and a high leadkage inductance. The maximum laser output was about 23 W at pulse repetition rate of 60Hz total gas mixture of $CO_2$ : $N_2$ : He=1: 9: 15 and total pressure of 18 Torr

  • 현재 초고압 송변전기기에 적용되고 있는 $SF_6$가스는 절연 및 소호성능이 우수하며 회복특성이 뛰어나기 때문에 초고압 기기의 절연매체로서 널리 사용되고 있으나 가격이 비싸고 저온 및 높은 압력에서 액화되기 쉬우며 대기 중으로 방출될 경우에는 온실효과를 야기 시키는 단점을 가지고 있다. 최근 환경에 대한 관심과 규제가 높아지면서 온실가스에 대한 규제로서 교토 의정서가 정식 발효됨에 따라 $SF_6$가스는 금후 총량 제한에 의해 사용량이 규제 받을 가능성이 대단히 높다. 따라서 $SF_6$ 가스와 Air, N2, CO2, N2/O2 합성가스, He 등과 혼합된 절연매체들이 하나의 대안으로 연구되었다. 본 연구에서는 대체 절연가스로 주목받고 있는 Dry-air(공기 중에서 수분과 각종 불순물을 제거한 공기), N2/O2 합성가스, N2 가스를 4mm 간격의 준평등(구대구전극) 전계에서 0.5atm에서 9atm까지 변화시켰을 때 절연내력을 비교하였다. 또한, 보다 평등전계에 가까운 10mm의 간격에서도 0atm에서 4atm까지 동일한 전압을 인가하여 절연내력을 비교 분석하였다.

  • Objectives Dyspnea due to neuromuscular disease is very rare in the complementary medicine field. The purpose of this study is to report a case which showed sypmtoms improvement after treatment with Sohaphyang-won. Methods To evaluate the results of this treatment, number of days which the patient had dyspnea, results of an Arterial blood gas analysis, and the patient's lab reports were measured. Results The patient who suffered from severe sudden dyspnea and applying mechanical ventilator, was treated by Sohaphyang-won and acupuncture therapy for about 2 months. He had been diagnosed as dyspnea caused by neuromuscular disease, which in Western medicine there was no specific treatment. But after treated with Sohaphyang-won and acupuncture, his frequency of dyspnea decreased. Conclusions This study suggests that using Sasang constitutuional medical treatment is effective for Soeumin patient with dyspnea induced by neuromuscular disease.
