Micro gas turbine(MGT) has received attention recently as small-scale distributed power sources. With characteristics such as their small size, lightweight, low maintenance cost and minimal vibrations during operation, they are expected to become widespread in a wide range of ' applications, including residential and small-scale industrial use. It is very easier to start-up and stop the MGT system which is the friendly environmental power system has just below the 9ppm NOx emmission and good quality of noise level. The exhaust heat emitted by the MGT is in the form of about $300^{\circ}C$ clean exhaust gas. The exhaust gas is suitable for absorption chiller/heater system. 1 has researched performance characteristics of the 60 kW class MGT-absorption chiller-heater system in the local condition. Variations of heat recovery from exhaust gas has measured according to micro gas turbine output of 15, 30, 45, 60kW. From those results, the performance of the MGT-absorption chiller/heater system has been evaluated.

This study was performed to develop repair technology for J-Groove dissimilar metal weld of pressurizer heater sleeve in nuclear power plants. Pad, J-Groove automatic welding and mechanical machining equipments to develop repair technology using 'Half Nozzle Repair' were designed and manufactured. To obtain the optimum welding process parameters during Pad temperbead overlay welding, several welding experiments using Taguchi method were conducted. Weldability of Pad overlay weld specimens was estimated by PT/RT test, FE-SEM, EDS and Vickers hardness test. Also, J-Groove welding to adjust weld shape conditions requiring in ASME Code was carried out and its integrity of weld specimens was evaluated through PT/RT test and optical microscope. Consequently, it was revealed that Pad and J-Groove overlay welding for dissimilar metal weld of pressurizer heater sleeve could be possible to meet Code standard without weld defect.

This paper is described the indirect induction heated boiler and induction heated hot air producer using the voltage-fed series resonant high-frequency inverter which can operate in the frequency range from 20 kHz to 50 kHz. A specially designed induction heater is composed of laminated stainless plates, which have many tiny holes and are interconnected by spot welding. This heater is inserted into the ceramic type vessel with external working coil. This working coil is connected to the inverter and turbulence fluid through this induction heater to moving fluid generates in the vessel. The operating performances of this unique appliance in next generation and its effectiveness are evaluated and discussed from a practical point of view.

As to this research is new structure of the semiconductor substrate heating apparatus. The fast thermoresponsive according to the direct heating structure of the heating plate layer adhering closely to the floor side of a substrate and the fast heat loss minimization can be accomplished. Moreover, the contact area of the sheath heater, which is the heating plate layer built-in heating apparatus, is increased, so that it has more heating valid area. For this, it adheres closely to the substrate, in which the photosensitive film is coated and the heating plate layer, adhering closely to the floor side of a substrate the mica layer which adheres closely to the floor side of the upper heating plate layer in order to minimize an insulation and heat loss, and the lower part of the mica layer and it is comprised of the floor plate layer. The heating plate layer forms the continued groove portion over the floor side whole. The sheath heater for heating a substrate is inserted with the groove portion and the heating plate layer is comprised. It is confirmed that by using the new substrate heating structure, the temperature change of the heating plate against the time is observed. Then, there is the electric power saving effect of about 40% in comparison with the existing method.

Although many defects in PZR heater sleeve have been reported continually from operating experiences in oversea nuclear power plant, utilities get into difficulties in finding appropriate methods for diagnostics of the components due to the limited access or high radiation problems. Recently, as an alternative, diagnostics using Guided Wave Testing(GWT) are proposed and the attention of the methods has been growing gradually because of their long range inspection capability. This study is to investigate the effectiveness of GWT to detect PWSCC in welding points of PZR heater sleeve. Moreover, mode sensitivity analysis of GWT and optimal frequency for the diagnostics of PWSCC are presented by testing the mock-ups specimens that contain artificial flaws.

We had designed thermally controlled superconducting switches using a general nonlinear optimized algorithm with constraints and tested its performance. Objective function was to minimize the total volume of the superconducting switch. And constraints were to have designed resistance in normal status and temperature. In order to compare performance of the optimized superconducting switch, we made another one which had geometrically different parameters but had same structure and resistance value when the superconductor part is normal status by heater. Objective function converged very rapidly. As result, volume of the adiabatic part and total volume of the switch were reduced to more than 70% and 30% respectively. Also, even if same heater power was supplied with NiCr wire heater, the optimized superconducting switch had very fast On-OFF switching performance comparing with unoptimized switch.

The electrical and physical characteristics of aluminum oxide and Pt thin films on it, deposited by reactive sputtering and DC magnetron sputtering respectively, were analyzed with increasing annealing temperature(400~80$0^{\circ}C$) by four point probe, SEM and XRD. Under $600^{\circ}C$ of annealing temperature, aluminum oxide had the properties of improving Pt adhesion to SiO$_2$and insulation without chemical reaction to Pt thin films and the resistivity of Pt thin films was improved. But these properties of aluminum oxide and Pt thin films on it were degraded over $700^{\circ}C$ of annealing temperature because aluminum oxide was changed into metal aluminum and then reacted to Pt thin films deposited on it. In the analysis of the thermal charateristics of Pt micro-heater fabricated on Si07/si substrate, the temperature of Pt micro-heater is up to 41$0^{\circ}C$ with the power dissipation 1.8 watts.

The methods for adjusting the output voltage as well as the heater temperature of a single-phase inverter for the heat treatment are proposed. The output voltage of the single-phase inverter is limited to 60 V for safety. The time constant of heater temperature is much higher than that of the output voltage. The stability may be deteriorated due to such large time constant difference. In order to ensure the stability, a hysteresis on/off control method for the heater temperature control is used. The performances for the proposed methods are verified with the experiments.
