The purpose of this study is to investigate the macroscopic spray characteristics and spray pattern of a gasoline direct injection (GDI) injector according to the increase of injection pressure. The macroscopic spray characteristics, such as a spray tip penetration and spray angle, were measured and analyzed from the frozen spray images, which are obtained from the spray visualization system including the high-speed camera, light-source, long-distance microscope (LDM). The spray pattern was analyzed through the deviation of the center of the spray plum and images were acquired using Nd: YAG Laser and ICCD(Intensified charge coupled device) camera. From the experiment and analysis, it revealed that the injection pressure have a significant influence on the spray tip penetration and spray pattern. However, the injection pressure have little influence on the spray angle. The increase of injection pressure induced the reduction of a closing delay. In addition, the deviation of spray center increase with the increase of injection pressure and the distance from a nozzle tip.

The experimental study has been performed through residual stress using the Ti6Al4V, investigate the effect of laser shock peening on laser welding process residual stress of Ti6Al4V welds in a reduce safety weld zone. This research evaluated the effects of shock waves from laser shock peening with a pulsed Nd:YAG laser on Ti6Al4V welding specimens, through the analysis of the residual stress of the specimens. The residual stress could be formed by the depth of 1 mm if the proposed method of reducing the residual stress is performed in the optimal condition. The welded structures and products during the production process increase the mechanical property of repeated stress, which could be expected to extend the fatigue life of the structure.

Ti-based coatings following laser ablation were studied to compare degradation behaviors by thermomechanical stress. TiN, TiCN, and TiAlN coatings were degraded by a Nd:YAG pulsed laser with an increase in the laser pulses. A decrease in the hardness was identified as the pulses increased, and the hardness levels were in the order of TiAlN > TiCN > TiN. The TiN showed cracks on the surface, and cracks with pores formed along the cracks were observed in the TiCN. The dominant degradation behavior of the TiAlN was surface pore formation. EDS results revealed that diffusion of substrate atoms to the coating surface occurred in the TiN. Delamination occurred in the TiN and TiCN, while the TiAlN which has higher thermal stability than the TiN and TiCN maintained adhesion to the substrate. It was considered that the decrease in the hardness of the Ti-based hard coatings is attributed to surface cracking and the diffusion of substrate atoms.

ZnO nanorods were grown on $SiO_2$ coated Si wafers and glass by the hydrothermal method. The structural and optical properties variation of ZnO nanorods as a function of growing time was studied. ~10 nm-thick ZnO thin films deposited on substrates by rf magnetron sputtering were employed as seed layers. Zinc nitrate hexahydrate (0.05 M) and hexamethylenetetramine (0.05 M) mixed in DI water were used as a reaction solution. ZnO nanorods were respectively grown for 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, and 4 h by maintaining the reactor at $90^{\circ}C$. Crystallinity of ZnO nanorods was analyzed by X-ray diffraction, and the morphology of nanorods was observed by a field emission scanning electron microscope. Transmittance and absorbance were measured by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, and energy band gap and urbach energy were obtained from the data. Photoluminescence measurements were carried out using Nd-Yag laser (266 nm).

Thin films of YB $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$$O_{7-x}$ supercondYB $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$$O_{7-x}$uctor were prepared on (100) SrTi $O_{3}$ substrates by pulsed laser deposition using visible light laser. Q-switched Nd:YAG(532 nm, 30 ns) pulsed laser was used for deposition. The effects of substrate temperature and oxygen pressure during deposition on films were studied. Critical current density of 2.93*10$^{6}$ A/c $m^{2}$ at 77K and Tc(zero)=91.7K were obtained from the film prepared with Tsub=745.deg. C and $P_{02}$=200 mTorr. XRD analysis showed that the grown film has c-axis normal orientation to the substrate surface and has single phase. Surface morphology of the film has been improved by interfering the plume ejected from YB $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$$O_{7-x}$ target.arget.t.

It was experimentally studied that the stabilization mechanism of turbulent, lifted jet flames in a non-premixed condition to reveal the newly found liftoff height behavior of hydrogen jet. The objectives are to report the phenomenon of a liftoff height decreasing as increasing fuel velocity, to analyse the flame structure and behavior of the lifted jet, and to explain the mechanisms of flame stability in hydrogen turbulent non-premixed jet flames. The hydrogen jet velocity was changed from 100 to 300m/s and a coaxial air velocity was fixed at 16m/s with a coflow air less than 0.1m/s. For the simultaneous measurement of velocity field and reaction zone, PIV and OH PLIF technique was used with two Nd:Yag lasers and CCD cameras. As a result, it was found that the stabilization of lifted hydrogen diffusion flames is correlated with a turbulent intensity and Karlovitz number.

A new 3D-PTV algorithm (a Volume PTV) based upon a hybrid fitness function has been constructed. A coherency fitness function is introduced using the information of space and time to sort out the correct particle pairs between the two camera images. The measurement system consists of two-high-definition-cameras($1k{\times}1k$), a Nd-Yag laser and a host computer. The developed algorithm has been employed to investigate the flow features of the cylinder wake. The Reynolds numbers with the cylinder diameter (d=10mm) are 360, 720, 900 and 1260. Two-dimensional displacements of the particles of each camera's image and neighbouring constraints were introduced to reduce the calculation loads. More than 10,000 instantaneous 3D vectors have been obtained by the constructed algorithm. The constructed algorithm could recover more than $80{\sim}90%$ of the particle numbers in the image.

S $m_{2}$F $e_{17}$ $N_{x}$ film magnets using a S $m_{2}$F $e_{17}$ target were prepared at $N_{2}$ gas atmosphere using a Nd-YAG laser ablation technique. The effect of nitrogen pressure, deposition temperature, pulsation time and film thickness on the structure and magnetic properties of S $m_{2}$F $e_{17}$ $N_{x}$ film were studied. Increasing the nitrogen pressure up to 5 atm. was confirmed to lead the formation of complete S $m_{2}$F $e_{17}$ $N_{x}$ compound. Optimized magnetic properties with the nitrogenation temperature ranging over 500-53$0^{\circ}C$ could be obtained by extending the nitrogenation time up to 4 hours. Relatively low coercivities of 400~600 Oe were exhibited from the S $m_{2}$F $e_{17}$ $N_{x}$ films having the thickness of 50~100 nm while 4$\pi$ $M_{s}$ of 10~12 kG could be achieved. In-plane anisotropic characteristic, which was the basic goal in this study, was achieved by controlling the nitrogenation parameters.ameters.ers.ameters.

In this study, microfabrication of a micro-arcjet nozzle with Fifth-harmonic generation Nd：YAG pulses (wavelength 213 nm) and its thrust performance tests were conducted. A micro-arcjet nozzle was machined in a 1.2 mm thick quartz plate. Sizes of the nozzle were 0.44 mm in width of the nozzle exit and constrictor diameter of 0.1 mm. For an anode, a thin film of Au (~100 nm thick) was deposited by DC discharge PVD in vacuum on divergent part of the nozzle. As for a cathode, an Au film was also coated on inner wall surface. In operational tests, a stable discharge was observed for mass flow of 1.0mg/sec, discharge current of 6 ㎃, discharge voltage of 600 V, or 3.6 W input power (specific power of 3.6 MW/kg). In this case, plenum pressure of the discharge chamber was 80 ㎪. With 3.6 W input power, thrust obtained was 1.4 mN giving specific impulse of 138 sec with thrust efficiency of 24 %.

최근 금형은 자동차뿐만 아니라 여러 산업에서 필수적이며 제품의 품질은 물론 제조원가에 막대한 영향을 미친다. 이러한 금형은 침탄, 질화, 고주파담금질등에 의해 표면처리 되어져 왔으나, 이와 같이 기존의 처리 방법은 모두 처리물 전체를 가열하거나 균일한 가열을 하지 못하기 때문에 변형의 문제와 처리후의 후가공의 경비 문제, 그리고 극히 일부분만 경화가 필요한 부품에는 적용하기 어려운 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결할 수 있는 표면처리로서 레이저 표면처리 방법이 대두되고 있으며, 레이저 표면처리는 레이저 빔을 피처리물의 표면에 조사하고 적당한 속도로 이동을 하게 되면 레이저조사부위가 급속하게 가열되고 레이저빔이 통과한 후에는 표면의 열이 내부로 열전도 되어 급속히 자기냉각(Self-quenching)됨으로서 표면에 새로운 기계적 성질을 갖게 하는 표면처리법이다. 이와 같이 레이저를 이용한 표면처리로 기존의 CW Nd:YAG 레이저 열원보다 효율이 좋은 HPDL(High Power Diode Laser)를 이용한 고효율, 고기능 금형 표면처리 후 재료적 물성을 평가하고자 한다. 평가방법은 레이저빔의 조사속도 및 온도변화에 따른 표면처리부, 열영향부 그리고 모재 부분에 대한 경도특성 및 미세조직 변화를 관찰하였다. 또한 조사속도 및 온도변화에 대해 경화깊이를 관찰하였다.
