A prototype of photoelectric photometer has been developed by all solid state operational amplifiers. The amplification of low-level anode currents from photomultiplier tube corresponding to a given incident light intensity and logarithmic transfer for star's magnitude nleasurements are achieved by the same operational amplifier. It is important to select low input bias currents for stable performance because the resolution is primarily limited by the bias currents. As such, they offer a higher reliable and economical for a large number of electrometer amplifier applications which have traditionaly been fulfilled by vacuum electrometer tubes or vibrating reed electrometers.

Effluent recycling effect on UASB reactor performances is known as an important operational factor. In the present study, the possibility of intermittent recycle in UASB process for saving the power consumption was examined at different organic loading and various operational modes in recycle time period. The organic removal efficiencies of the reactors operated with the intermittent effluent recycle were considerably higher compared to those without the effluent recycle. In the intermittent recycle mode, the organic removal efficiencies slightly decreased as the non-recycle time period in the operational mode increased. Proper ratio of recycle and non-recycle time period in the mode seemed to be required to prevent the produced biogas from accumulation in the sludge bed, which caused dead zone in the reactor and sludge loss when the gas was escaped from the bed at the certain pressure.

Needs of fuel's performance evaluation for the dual-cooled fuel pellet (annular shape) necessitate the irradiation test in the test reactor. Irradiation test rig for the HARARO reactor, which is a special-purposed equipment used for material, irradiation and creep test, must satisfy the operational requirement on the hydraulic characteristics and structural integrity. In this paper, pressure drop and flow-induced vibration test for the newly developed non-instrumented test rig were carried out using FIVPET as a out-pile evaluation test. The test results show that the new test rig satisfy the HANARO operational requirement with sufficient margin. The spectral response characteristics of the flow-induced vibration of the test rid were also discussed.

The performance of the ECWS was predicted for the anticipated operational occurrences. The inadvertent close of loop isolation valve is the most severe case for the five anticipated operational occurrences considered in this design and meets the design criteria of the ECWS. The correlation of critical heat flux for the geometry of three pins sub-channel analysis will be studied in the feature.

This paper presents the design of a CMOS programmable slew rate operational amplifier based upon a newly proposed concept, that is a switched parallel current subtraction circuit with adaptive biasing technique. By utilizing the newly designed circuit, it was proven that slew rate was linearly controlled and power dissipation was optimized. If the programmable slew rate amplifier is employed into mixed signal system, it can furnish the convenience of timing control and optimized power dissipation. Simulated data showed the slew rate ranging from 5. 83V/$\mu$s to 41.4V/$\mu$s, power dissipation ranging from 1.13mW to 4.1mW, and the other circuit performance parameters were proven to be comparable with those of a conventional operational amplifier.

Simulation models have been developed to predict the overall behavior of the CANDU plant systems during normal operational transients. For real time simulation purpose, simplified thermal hydraulic models are applied with appropriate system control logics, which include primary heat transport system solver with its component models and secondary side system models. The secondary side models are mainly used to provide boundary conditions for primary system calculation and to accomodate plant power control logics. Also, for the effective use of simulation package, hardware oriented basic simulation network has been established with appropriate graphic display system. Through validation with typical plant power maneuvering cases using proven plant performance analysis computer code, the present simulation package shows reasonable capability in the prediction of the dynamic behavior of plant variables during operational transients of CANDU plant, which means that this simulation tool can be utilized as a basic framework for full scope simulation network through further improvements.

PURPOSES: Regional offices of the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs use a computerized system called KAMIS so as to manage road equipment systematically. Road agencies can record number of operating days by equipment, actual working hours, accumulated operating hours (or distance) by equipment, and operating cost. However, KAMIS does not provide critical information, although it is strongly related to efficient road management equipment operation. In other words, road agencies do not know whether they have sufficient equipment to handle their actual work. METHODS: Therefore, this study suggests a methodology to evaluate for operational efficiency of road management equipment using analytical hierarchy process(AHP). First of all, estimated weights related criteria can be produced by AHP, and then use operational history by pieces of equipment. RESULTS: Results show that importance of management work can differ from weather conditions through five areas. CONCLUSIONS: Commonly, this results can imply to help save money for the purchase and maintenance of road management equipment, and they would improve the functional performance of KAMIS.

PURPOSES: This study proposes a novel method based on microscopic simulation models to evaluate bicycle passing ways in mixed traffic flow conditions at signalized intersections. METHODS: Both operational efficiency and safety are taken into consideration in the evaluation. A widely used performance measure, delay, is used for evaluating the operational efficiency. Regarding the safety evaluation, surrogate safety measures (SSM) to represent traffic conflicts and the level of crash severity, DeltaS and Max.DeltaV, are applied in the proposed method. RESULTS: Extensive simulations and statistical tests show that an integrated bike-box way is identified as the best in terms of operational efficiency and safety. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed method and outcomes of this study will be valuable for bicycle traffic operations and facility design.

This paper focuses on the technical information about the development of the submarine operational effectiveness simulation model for the feasibility study stage of the submarine design. The simulation model is classified into simulation control model and system model. Using user input and related performance parameters, it can simulate various scenarios by no change of the program because it includes tactic manager which makes decision about every situation. And the Monte-Carlo simulation mode which provides the stochastic results is available. Through the test simulation, the usefulness of the simulation model was verified. It should be helpful for the analysis of the submarine operational effectiveness by diversified scenarios in the concept design phase..
