An experimental study is performed to investigate the thermal and flow characteristics of subcooled liquid nitrogen in a natural circulation loop. Experimental apparatus is designed and constructed such that a closed loop is cooled at the top by a cryocooler and heated nearly at the bottom by cartridge heaters. Steady state is obtained by controlling the heating power to the cartridge heaters and a thin-film heater to reduce the cooling power of the cryocooler. Temperature is measured at several locations of the loop and the mass flow rate through the loop is estimated from the energy balance in terms of the measured temperatures. Experiment is repeated for various values of the vertical height between the cooling and heating parts. The results show that the heat transfer capability of the loop has a maximum at a certain value of height. The optimal height to maximize the heat transfer is in a good agreement with analytical prediction to take into account the buoyancy and viscous forces in the loop.

A low spur phase-locked loop (PLL) with FVCO-sampled feedforward loop-filter has been proposed. Conventional PLL has loop filter made of a resistor and capacitors. The proposed PLL is working stably with the filter consisted of capacitors and a switch. It has been designed with a 1.8V $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process and proved by simulation with HSPICE.

This paper presents a loop impedance(inner loop impedance & external impedance) measurement method in TN system. When the measurement of a loop impedance then the measurement result have a some error by load condition. In this paper suggest the loop impedance measurement on actual loading condition by two experiment. one was laboratory condition and the other was the actual measurement on site. Analysis result, measuring error by load condition has not effect on measuring loop impedance.

This paper proposes a new nonlinear adaptive guidance law. Fourth order state equation for integrated guidance and control loop is formulated considering target uncertainties and control loop dynamics. The state equation is further changed into the normal form by nonlinear coordinate transformation. An adaptive nonlinear guidance law is proposed to compensate for the uncertainties In both target acceleration and control loop dynamics. The proposed law adopts the sliding mode control approach with adaptation fer unknown bound of uncertainties. The present approach can effectively solve the existing guidance problem of target maneuver and the limited performance of control loop. We provide the stability analyses and demonstrate the effectiveness of our scheme through simulations.

This paper presents a series of numerical simulations on the thermal performance and sectional efficiency of a closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger (U-loop) equipped in a geothermal heat pump system (GHP). A 3-D finite volume analysis (Fluent) was used to simulate the operating process of the closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger by considering the effect of the thickness of HDPE pipe and grout thermal properties, distance between the inflow and outflow pipes, and the effectiveness of the latticed HDPE pipe system. It was observed that the thermal interference between the two strands of U-loop is of importance in determining the efficiency of the ground heat exchanger, and thus it is highly recommendable to modify the cross section configuration of the conventional U-loop system by including a thermally insulating latice between the two strands.

This article documents the design of a novel two-loop acceleration autopilot based on $\mathcal{L}_1$ adaptive output feedback control for tail-controlled missiles. The inner loop is an adaptive angle-of-attack tracking loop and the outer loop is the traditional PI controller for error compensation. A systematic low-pass filter design procedure is provided for minimum phase system and is applied to the inner loop design while the parameters of the outer loop are obtained from the multi-objective optimization problem. The effectiveness of the proposed autopilot is verified through numerical simulations under various conditions.

Spread Spectrum Communication is a core technique in CDMA system, but the problem for SS Communication schemes is synchronous method. There are DLL(Delay Lock Loop), Tau-dither Loop, SO(Synchronous Osillator) etc., in the sychronous method. But since there are analog operations, the setting is difficult and circuit size is large. In this paper we proposed Digital Delay Lock Loop (DDLL) and estimated it's performance through the experiment.

During the fast current and field ramp up experiment with CICC (Cable-In-Conduit Conductor) non-insulated 3 strand superconducting magnet, the unbalanced current distribution associated with the loop current has been obtained directly from the shunt resistor voltage data. To explain the generation of the loop current during the current ramp up, the steady-state three strand loop current model was proposed. This model gives an explanation for the relation between the loop current and the relation between the loop current and the twist geometry of the strands. According to this model, the twist geometry of the strand has significant influence on the generation of the loop current especially in the large superconducting magnet.

This paper proposes the planar-type modified monopole antennas of loop structure. This antenna has an opened center of a conventional closed loop structure with an inside-folded terminal of the loop microstrip line. The size of the proposed antenna was minimized by folding the end of the loop. Also, the reactance value has been minimized by increasing capacitances between the coupled microstrip line. Therefore the proposed antenna has been compacted to about 20% from a conventional loop antenna and has increased its efficiency. The proposed antennas have an omni-directional pattern, the antenna gain was 3.67 [dBi] and the bandwidth was 900 MHz (2.6~3.56 GHz) with VSWR$\leq$2 from the simulated and the measured results. The frequency utilization coefficient was 29.9%. These properties could satisfy the S-DMB band.

This paper presents a design and implementation of a PID feedback control loop for micro gyroscope. The feedback control loop improves the gyroscope performance such as linearity, bandwidth, and bias stability for micro gyroscope which is basically a high-Q system and exhibits a low performance with an open loop control. The designed and implemented feed-back control loop is applied to the SNU-Bosch MEMS gyroscope to demonstrate the improvement with the feedback control loop. The bandwidth is improved to 60Hz from 25Hz of open loop control. The linearity becomes 0.5% from 1%. The bias stability is improved to 0.03 deg/sec from 0.06 deg/sec.
