A cavity-backed two-arm spiral antenna for partial discharge diagnosis is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a two-arm Archimedean spiral, a tapered microstrip balun as spiral antenna feed, and a ring-shaped absorber-loaded cavity. The Archimedean spiral antenna is designed for the operating frequency band of 0.3 GHz to 1.5 GHz and fed by the tapered microstrip balun. The cavity is utilized to transform the bidirectional beam into a unidirectional beam, thereby enhancing gain. The ring-shaped absorber is stacked in the cavity to reduce the reflected waves from the cavity wall. The proposed antenna is designed and simulated using CST Microwave Studio. A prototype of the proposed antenna is likewise fabricated and tested. The measured radiation patterns are directional to the positive z-axis, and the measured peak gain is 8.13 dBi at a frequency of 1.1 GHz.

본 논문에서는 다이폴 형태인 기존의 부분방전 센서의 특성을 개선하고자 센서 부분을 사다리꼴 형태로 변형시킴으로써 기존의 부분방전(PD: Partial Discharge) 센서의 단점인 협대역 특성을 개선하였다. 또한 외부부착 센서용으로 사용함에 따라 외부로 부터의 전자파 신호를 원천적으로 차단시킬 수 있는 구조인 캐버티(Cavity) 구조를 적용함으로써 저자세와 설치의 편리성을 갖는 구조적인 장점을 살리는 부분방전 센서를 제안하고자 한다. 실험 결과 중심주파수 2.45GHz에서 약 70.5%의 광대역(1.59~3.32GHz) 특성이 있음을 보여, 광대역 특성을 확인할 수 있었다.

A supercavitation is modern technology that can be used to reduce the frictional resistance of the underwater vehicle. In the process of reaching the supercavity condition which cavity envelops whole vehicle body, a vehicle passes through transition phase from fully-wetted to supercaviting operation. During this phase of flight, unsteady hydrodynamic forces and moments are created by partial cavity. In this paper, analytical and numerical investigations into the dynamics of supercavitating vehicle in transition phase are presented. The ventilated cavity model is used to lead rapid supercavity condition, when the cavitation number is relatively high. Immersion depth of fins and body, which is decided by the cavity profile, is calculated to determine hydrodynamical effects on the body. Additionally, the frictional drag reduction associated by the downstream flow is considered. Numerical simulation for depth tracking control is performed to verify modeling quality using PID controller. Depth command is transformed to attitude control using double loop control structure.

Air lubrication techniques for frictional drag reduction on ships have been proposed by numerous researchers since the 19th century. However, these techniques have not been widely adopted as questions persist about their drag reduction performance beyond the laboratory, as well as energy and economic cost-benefit. This paper draws on data from the literature to consider the suitability of air lubrication for large ocean going and U.S. Great Lakes ships, by establishing the basic energy economic calculations and presenting results for a hypothetical air lubricated ship. All the assumptions made in the course of the analysis are clearly stated so that they can be refined when considering application of air lubrication to a specific ship. The analysis suggests that, if successfully implemented, both air layer and partial cavity drag reduction could lead to net energy savings of 10 to 20%, with corresponding reductions in emissions.

질량분석기가 장착된 초고진공챔버를 사용하여 미소체적을 갖는 평판표시소자용 패널내부에 존재하는 잔류가스의 전체압력과 분압을 성공적으로 측정하였다. 패널내부의 전체압력은 $10^{-6}$Torr범위로 측정되었으며, 전체압력의 증가에 크게 기여하는 가스분압은 아르곤, 메탄 및 헬륨 분압들이었다. 패널의 진공패키징을 위한 배기공정시 가열온도는 고진공패키징에 있어서 매우 중요하며, 가열배기 온도가 높을수록 전체압력과 메탄분압은 감소하였다.

Studies on cavitation instabilities of hydrofoils and cascades are reviewed to obtain fundamental understandings of the instabilities observed in turbopump inducers. Most of them are based on the stability analysis of two-dimensional inviscid cavitating flow. The most important finding of the analysis is that the cavitation instabilities depend only on the mean cavity length. For a hydrofoil, the characteristic length is the chord length and partial/transitional cavity oscillation occurs with shorter/longer cavity than 75% of the chord length. For cascades, the characteristic length is the blade spacing and various modes of instabilities are predicted when the mean cavity is longer than 65% of the spacing. In the last part, rotating choke is shown to occur when the cavity becomes longer than the spacing.

Study of the wave structure and shear layer in the vicinity of a wall mounted cavity is done by time averaged colour schlieren and time resolved instantaneous shadowgraph technique in an M=1.7 flowfield. Effect of change of cavity width on flow structure is investigated by using constant length to depth (L/D) ratio cavity models with varying length to width (L/W) ratio of 0.83 to 4. The time averaged shock wave structure was observed to change with change in cavity width. Dependence of the shock angle at the leading edge on the shear layer width is also evident from the images obtained. Unsteadiness in the flow field in terms of shear layer dynamics and quasi steady nature of shock waves was evident from the images obtained during instantaneous shadowgraph experiments. Apart from the leading and trailing edge shocks, several other waves and flow features were observed. These flow features and the associated physical phenomena are discussed in details and presented in the paper.

Purpose: Accurate localization of the lumpectomy cavity during accelerated partial breast radiation (APBR) is essential for daily setup to ensure the prescribed dose encompasses the target and avoids unnecessary irradiation to surrounding normal tissues. Three-dimensional ultrasound (3D-US) allows direct visualization of the lumpectomy cavity without additional radiation exposure. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of 3D-US in daily target localization for APBR. Materials and methods: Forty-seven patients with stage I breast cancer who underwent breast conserving surgery were treated with a 2-week course of APBR. Patients with visible lumpectomy cavities on high quality 3D-US images were included in this analysis. Prior to each treatment, X-ray and 3D-US images were acquired and compared to images from simulation to confirm accurate position and determine shifts. Volume change of the lumpectomy cavity was determined daily with 3D-US. Results: A total of 118 images of each modality from 12 eligible patients were analyzed. The average change in cavity volume was 7.8% (range, -24.1% to 14.4%) on 3D-US from simulation to the end-of-treatment. Based on 3D-US, significantly larger shifts were necessary compared to portal films in all three dimensions: anterior/posterior (p = 7E-11), left/right (p = 0.002), and superior/inferior (p = 0.004). Conclusion: Given that the lumpectomy cavity is not directly visible via X-ray images, accurate positioning may not be fully achieved by X-ray images. Therefore, when the lumpectomy cavity is visible on US, 3D-US can be considered as an alternative to X-ray imaging during daily positioning for selected patients treated with APBR, thus avoiding additional exposure to ionizing radiation.
