Sealing of lubricant-air mixture in the high performance machining center is one of most the important characteristics to carry out enhanced lubrication. High speed spindle requires non-contact type of sealing mechanism. Evaluating an optimum seal design to minimize leakage is concerned in the aspect of flow control. Effect of geometry and leakage path are evaluated according to variation of sealing geometry. Velocity, pressure, turbulence intensity of profile is calculated to find more efficient geometry and variables. This offers a methodological way of enhancement seal design for high speed spindle. The working fluid is regarded as two phases that are mixed flow of oil phase and air phase. It is more reasonable to simulate an oil jet or oil mist type high speed spindle lubrication. Turbulence and compressible flow model are used to evaluate a flow characteristic. This paper considers a design effect of sealing capability of non- contact type seals for high speed spindle and analyzes leakage characteristics to minimize a leakage 7 on the same sealing area.

This paper presents leakage and performance characteristics of a tip-seal type scroll compressor, The performance of a scroll compressor is strongly dependent on the leak age across the compression pockets. However, literature for leakage characteristics of the tip seal type scroll compressor is very limited due to complex sealing mechanism. In the present study, a simulation study was executed to investigate the tip-seal type scroll compressor by considering leakages passing through flank and tip clearance. As a result, the leakage phenomena of the tip seal type scroll compressor as a function of discharge pressure, tip clearance, dimension of the tip seal were analyzed. Effects of leakage on the performance of the compressor were also clarified.

This paper presents the characteristics of flank and tip seal leakage in a scroll compressor for air-conditioners with R-22 under actual operating conditions. It is well known that the leakage has significant effect on the performance of the scroll compressor. Experiments were performed by using indirect method for measuring mass flow rate passing through flank and tip seal under actual operating conditions, In addition, an analytical model for tip seal leakage was developed to investigate tangential and radial leakage observed at grooves and contact points of tip seals. For low oil concentration, theoretical results were compared with experimental data to verify the analytical model. As a result, leakages through flank and tip seal parts were evaluated as afunction of pressure ratio, orbiting angle, discharge pressure, tip clearance, and leakage point. It was also found that the tip seal leakage was considerable even though the tip seal provided adequate sealing effect.

This study analyzed cases of hydrogen (H₂) and natural gas (CH₄) leakage from a hydrogen-blended natural gas pipeline to determine a range of leakage characteristics, including leakage type, pipe material, pipe diameter, pressure, and damage size. Based on the results of this analysis, five hydrogen-blended natural gas leakage scenarios were selected. The national vision for a carbon-neutral society by 2050 is a very important strategic objective and promotes environmentally sustainable economic development in the age of the climate crisis. Accordingly, zero-carbon and low-carbon policies are being promoted in various fields, including energy production, consumption, and industrial processes. Hydrogen-blended natural gas is eco-friendly and is considered an important step towards carbon neutrality, with various countries including the United States and several European countries conducting empirical research to further investigate its potential. In Korea, a national research project commenced in April 2023 to verify and demonstrate the life cycle safety of blending hydrogen into the natural gas network. The results of this study will provide important data for the analysis of the damage impacts caused by the leakage of hydrogen-blended natural gas, such as the diffusion of gas clouds, fires, and gas explosions.

We demonstrated a polymer dielectric with low leakage characteristics through an optimal blade coating method for low-cost and large-scale fabrication of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors. Cross-linked poly(4-vinylphenol) (C-PVP), which is a typically used polymer dielectric, was coated on a 10 × 10 cm indium-tin-oxide (ITO) deposited glass substrate by changing the deposition temperature (TD) and coating velocity (VC) in the blade coating. During the blade coating, the thickness of the thin c-PVP varied depending on TD and VC owing to the 'Landau-Levich (LL) regime'. The c-PVP-dielectric-based MIM capacitor fabricated in this study showed the lowest leakage current characteristics (10-6 A/㎠ at 1.2 MV/㎠, annealing at 200 ℃) and uniform electrical characteristics when TD was 30 ℃ and VC was 5 mm/s. In addition, at TD = 30 ℃, stable leakage characteristics were confirmed when a different electric field was applied. These results are expected to positively contribute to applications with next-generation electronic devices.

A study on the characteristics of electric shock in fresh water due to the leakage of submerged electric facility is conducted by using a reduced scale model at a scale of 1:10 in laboratory. Electric potential as a function of distance from leakage source, type of the leakage source, magnitude of the source voltage, submerged depth and diameter of a copper rod electrode is measured. On the basis of safety standard, separation for guarantee of safety is determined by the measured potential. Also supposing that body resistance is 500［$\Omega$］, the human reaction was estimated by calculating body current for some shock duration. Thus, in this paper, the hazard of the electric shock is assessed by introducing representative safety factors, body voltage and body current due to leakage source.

The effects of post annealing temperature by the Rapid Thermal Annealing(RTA) on the electrical properties of Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$(PZT) thin film were investigated. Analyses by the RTA treatments reveled that the leakage current of PZT thin films strongly depend on heating temperature and time. It was found that leakage current properties of PZT capacitor were changed by heating temperature during the RTA annealing. On Pt/Ti/Si substrates, PZT films are deposited at 350 $^{\circ}C$ by rf magnetron sputtering. The X-ray diffusion (XRD) was confirmed the formation of PZT thin film. Leakage current characteristics were improved with decreasing the post annealing temperature of PZT thin film. RTA annealed film on the 700$^{\circ}C$ shows ferroelectric and electrical properties with a remanent polarization of 12.4${\mu}$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ coercive field of 117kV/cm, leakage current J= 6.2${\times}$10$\^$-6/ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$

Poly-silicon thin film transistors were fabricated on quartz substrates by high temperature processes. Electrical characteristics were measured and compared for 3 transistor structures of Standard Inverted Gate(SIG), Lightly Doped Drain(LDD), and Dual Gate(DG). Leakage currents of DG and LDD TFT's were smaller that od SIG transistor, while ON-current of LDD transistor is much smaller than that of SIG and DG transistors. Temperature dependence of the leakage currents showed that SIG and DG TFT's had thermal generation current at small drian bias and Frenkel-Poole emission current at hight gate and drain biases, respectively. In case of LDD transistor, thermal generation was the dominant mechanism of leakage current at all bias conditions. It was found that the leakage current was closely related to the reduction of the electric field in the drain depletion region.

The quantity of alternating current (AC) leakage and the value of distortion factor in capacitor currents are discussed with regard to a new power component called variable capacitance device (VCD). This component has terminals for controlling its capacitance. Nonlinear dielectric characteristics are utilized in this device to vary the capacitance. When VCD operates in an AC circuit, the AC leakage from this device through direct current (DC) control voltage source increases according to the conditions of DC control voltage and so on. To solve this problem, we propose techniques for suppressing AC leakage. Although VCD has strong nonlinear characteristics, the current through the capacitor is not distorted significantly. The relations between AC leakage and the distortion in current waveforms are investigated. An application example for an AC power regulator is also introduced to evaluate the distortion in waveforms.

Surge arrestor is used for protection of facilities and lines. Recently lots of arresters fatted prematurely In the distribution lines. It is important to know that what the cause of the failures is. This paper presents characteristics of the aged and new 18kV surge arrester. In order to analyse characteristics, we measured leakage current using specialty made leakage current measurement system and also investigated Tan $\delta$ of the arrester and microstructure of the elements. Through the investigation we found that the characteristics among the ZnO elements in an arrester were a little different, It means that the surge arreste can have non-uniform electric field due to the characteristic difference of The each element. Owing to this concentration of the electric field, the localized aging might be proceeded.
