  • Rheological properties of acorn flour-guar gum mixtures (4% w/w) at different guar gum concentrations (0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8% w/w) were evaluated in steady and dynamic shear. The acorn flour-guar gum mixtures at $25^{\circ}C$ showed high shear-thinning flow behavior (n= 0.20-0.27). Consistency index (K), apparent viscosity (${\eta}_{a,100}$), and Casson yield stress (${\sigma}_{oc}$) increased with the increase in guar gum concentration. Within the temperature range of $25-70^{\circ}C$, the {\eta}_{a,100}$ of mixtures obeyed the Arrhenius relationship with high determination coefficient ($R^2=\;0.974-0.994$). Activation energy values (5.37-6.77 kJ/mole) of acorn flour dispersions in the mixtures with guar gum (0.2-0.8%) were much lower than that (12.5 kJ/mole) of acorn flour dispersion (0% guar gum). Storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G"), and complex viscosity (${\eta}^*$) increased with the increase in guar gum concentration. Dynamic rheological data of 1n (G', G") versus ln frequency (w) of guar gum-acorn flour mixtures had positive slopes with G' greater than G" over most of the frequency range, indicating that they exhibited weak gel-like behavior.

  • In this paper, to develop PTCR(Positive Temperature Coefficient of Resistance) thermistor with high withstanding voltage, Ca were added to. the compositions of $(Ba_{0.9165-X}-Sr_{0.08}-Ca_X-Y_{0.0035})TiO_3+MnO_2$ 0.02wt%+$SiO_2$ 0.5wt%. the effects of Ca additions were researched according the increasing of Ca from 0[mol%] to 20[mol%], and the electrical properties were investigated. As increasing Ca additions from 0[mol%] to 20[mol%], the grain size of the specimens was reduced from 11.1[${\mu}m$] to 6.15[${\mu}m$], and also the sintered density was reduced from 5.43[$g/cm^3$] to 5.05[$g/cm^3$] and their the breakdown voltages were increased from 163[V/mm] to 232[V/mm]. It is shown that the breakdown voltage was increased with amount of Ca additions.

  • 일반적으로 저압계통의 고장전류를 차단하기 위해 설치된 차단기의 차단원리는 주로 역전압발생법올 이용하고 있다. 역전압발생법은 효과적으로 저압계통의 고장전류를 차단할 수 있으나, 제한된 한류성능과 긴 아킹 시간은 차단기는 물론 주변 전력기기에 전기적/열적/기계적 스트레스를 주게 된다. 국내외 업체는 고장전류를 보다 빠르고 효과적으로 제한 및 차단을 할 수 있는 한류형 차단기를 제안하고 있는 실정이다. 저압계통의 경우, 정온도계수 (Positive Temperature Coefficient, PTC) 특성을 가지는 한류소자를 기존 차단기에 직렬 혹은 병렬로 연결하여 저압계통의 고장전류를 매우 빠르고 효과적으로 제한 및 차단하는 추세에 있으며, 또한 PTC 한류소자를 이용함으로써 저압계통의 차단보호협조를 효과적으로 구현하고자 하고 있다. PTC 한류소자는 소자는 열팽창이 큰 비전도성 성분과 열팽창이 작은 전도성 성분이 혼합되어 구성되며, 소자의 온도가 증가함에 따라 비전도성 성분이 상대적으로 큰 부피 팽창을 하여 저항이 증가하게 된다. 이러한 PTC 소자를 전력계통에 적용함으로써 고장전류에 따른 줄열에 의한 저항증가로 고장전류를 제한하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 일반적으로 배터리 보호용으로 사용되는 폴리에틸렌 수지 및 카본블랙으로 구성된 폴리머 PTC 한류소자를 이용하여, 기존의 저전력 배터리 보호 폴리머 PTC 소자로부터, 저압계통의 단락사고시 발생하는 단락전류를 효과적으로 제한할 수 있는 대전력 폴리머 PTC 소자를 개발하였다.

  • We have investigated dielectric properties of low fired ceramics BiNbO$_{4}$ containing 0.05[wt%] V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ and x[wt%l Cr$_{2}$O$_{3}$ (x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2). By substituting Cr for Bi, dielectric constant .epsilon.$_{r}$ and quality factor Q.f increased and temperature coefficient of resonant frecquency .tau.$_{f}$ changed to positive value. In the composition of BiNbO$_{4}$+0.05 [Wt%] V$_{2}$O$_{5}$+0.8[wt%]Cr$_{2}$O$_{3}$ sintered at 960[.deg.

  • In this work, the defrosting characteristics of PTC heating sheet used as a defrosting heat source of fin-tube heat exchanger in a refrigerator have been experimentally compared with those of conventional electric heater. It is found that the characteristics of water draining rate with defrosting time show smoothly oscillating pattern when PTC heating sheet is used, and the drained water is completely melted. The defrosting efficiency of the PTC heating sheet is about 75%, which represents about 25% higher than that of the electric heater. A reduction of defrosting time and an increase of defrosting efficiency may be obtained by improving the arrangement of heating elements of the heating sheet. It is shown that the defrosting time of PTC heating sheet increases linearly with the amount of frost, however the defrosting efficiency is nearly constant. In the application to the refrigerating system, one should notice the fact that the defrosting performance of PTC heating sheet may be defraded due to the repeated operations.

  • 일반적으로 저압계통의 고장전류를 차단하기 위해서, 기중차단기(LVPCB, ACB), 배선용차단기 등을 사용하고 있는데, 저압차단기는 저압계통의 고장전류를 차단할 수 있으나, 고장전류를 효과적으로 제한하지 못하며, 차단기 내부의 아킹시간이 상대적으로 길므로, 저압차단기는 물론 주변 전력기기에 전기적/열적/기계적 스트레스를 주게 된다. 또한 지속적인 부하의 증가로 인해 저압계통의 단락전류는 점점 증가하는 추세에 있으므로 저압계통은 물론 고압계통에서도 고장전류를 보다 빠르고 효과적으로 제한 및 차단을 할 수 있는 한류형 차단기가 제안되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 정온도계수(PTC, Positive Temperature Coefficient) 특성을 가지는 소자를 이용하여 저압계통에 적용가능한 한류소자를 개발하였으며, 기존 차단기에 직렬 혹은 병렬로 연결하여 저압계통의 고장전류를 매우 빠르고 효과적으로 제한 및 차단할 수 있으며, 아울러 저압계통의 차단보호 협조를 효과적으로 구현할 수 있는 한류형 차단기를 제안하였다. 한류소자를 전력기기에 적용하는 방법은 크게 기존 차단기와 직렬로 연결되는 방식과 기존 차단기를 수정하여 차단기 내부의 접점과 비직렬 연결되는 방식으로 구분 할 수 있는데, 본 논문에서는 직렬방식/비직렬방식으로 기존 차단기에 한류소자를 적용항에 있어서 대응가능한 대전류 PTC소자를 개발하였으며, 또한 각 방안에 대한 시제품을 제작하여 제한 성능을 검증하였다.

  • This study targets to make clear the connection between MS (Martensite start) point and welding shrinkage. We approved that a Martensite-transformed weldment may not yield state under low MS point, but also admitted the limitation of numerical calculation by inherent strain approach or thermal strain approach. Therefore, new thermal strain formulae during cooling stages were made. As a thermal strain is obtained by integrating thermal extension coefficient, a constant of integration should be decided. In our suggested formulae, the origin was based on totally remained austenite, and added strain from volume changes in Martensite transformation was based on totally transformed ferrite. Through the suggested methodology, It is verified that an MS point under a critical temperature can let weld shrinkage relax and the critical value can be obtained. For supporting this process, 15 weld-consumables were made, were tested by fillet type and were measured. As a result, a positive correlation between MS point and level of weld-distortion was obtained, but it was rather weak.

  • P-type Ce/Yb-filled skutterudites were synthesized, and their charge transport and thermoelectric properties were investigated with partial double filling and charge compensation. In the case of $(Ce_{1-z}Yb_z)_{0.8}Fe_4Sb_{12}$ without Co substitution, the marcasite ($FeSb_2$) phase formed alongside the skutterudite phase, but the generation of the marcasite phase was inhibited by increasing Co concentration. The electrical conductivity decreased with increasing temperature, exhibiting degenerate semiconductor behavior. The Hall and Seebeck coefficients were positive, which confirmed that the specimens were p-type semiconductors with holes as the major carriers. The carrier concentration decreased as the concentration of Ce and Co increased, which led to decreased electrical conductivity and increased Seebeck coefficient. The thermal conductivity decreased due to a reduction in electronic thermal conductivity via Co substitution, and due to decreased lattice thermal conductivity via double filling of Ce and Yb. $(Ce_{0.25}Yb_{0.75})_{0.8}Fe_{3.5}Co_{0.5}Sb_{12}$ exhibited the greatest dimensionless figure of merit (ZT = 0.66 at 823 K).

  • In the present work, we carried out a molecular dynamics study of the kinetic properties of the FLiNaK molten salt, as well as a detailed study of the structure of this salt melt. The high value of the self-diffusion coefficient of fluorine ions is due to the large number of Coulomb repulsions between the most numerous negative ions. The calculated values of shear viscosity are in good agreement with the experimental data, as well as with the reference data obtained on the basis of finding the most reliable data. The total and partial functions of the radial distribution are calculated. According to the statistical analysis, fluorine ions have the greatest numerical diversity in the environment of similar ions, and sodium ions with the lowest representation in FLiNaK, have the least such diversity. For the subsystem of fluorine ions, the rotational symmetry of the fifth order is the most pronounced. Some of the fluorine ions form linear chains consisting of three atoms, which are not formed for positive ions. The results of the work give an understanding of the behavior molten FLiNaK under operating conditions in a molten salt reactor and will find application in future studies of this molten salt.
