The effect of the reflectivity of both facets and the phase of a phase tuning section on the self-pulsation (SP) characteristics of multisection complex-coupled (CC) DFB lasers is investigated in terms of yield. The lasers are composed of two CC DFB sections and a phase tuning section between them. As the coupling strength and the coupling ratio (CR) decrease, the effect of the reflected fields from both facets and the other DFB section on the mode characteristics of one DFB section increases, so that the yield decreases. As the facet reflectivity increases, the maximum yield and the range of the phase of a phase tuning section with yield more than 60% decrease independent of the coupling strength and CR. The yield characteristics of CR=0.2 are better than those of CR=0.1 with the same coupling strength due to the larger complex coupling effect. The case with ${\mid}{\kappa}L{\mid}=3$ and CR=0.2 shows best yield characteristics among the cases considered in this work.

Stainless steel type 304L has been nitrided in the low pressure (600Pa) and high nitrogen (80% $N_2$+20% $H_2$) environment for 5 hours by the square-wave-pulsed-d.c. plasma as a function of temperature $400{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ and pulsation. At the lower temperature range of $400{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ and at the relatively high ratio of pulse duration to pulse period. "S-phase" has been developed in the form of thin nitrided surface layer which has many cracks, leading to be nearly impossible for the industrial anti-wear and anti-corrosion applications. At the higher temperature up to $550^{\circ}C$ with the increasing ratio of the pulse duration to pulse period up to $50{\mu}s/100{\mu}s$, the nitrided layer, whose growth rate has increased also, has been composed mainly of CrN and $Fe_4N$ phases and has become thick, uniform and nearly crack-free.

Slot field harmonics exist in air gap due to inevitable slot constructure of induction motors. They give rise to noise by the electromagnetic vibration and mechanical pulsation. We calculate the slot field harmonics for varying the ratio of slot width vs teeth pitch using the carter's coefficent. We computate the flux density in air gap by FEM(Finite Element Method) and analyze it in frequency domain using DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform). We develop the new algorithm mixing FEM with DFT.

Objectives: Moxibustion has been used for various post-stroke symptoms and has also been known to have effect on peripheral blood flow. This study investigated the effect of moxibustion on radial artery blood flow by Doppler ultrasound and on heart rate variability in post-stroke hemiplegia patients. Methods: Moxibustion was applied on the points of LI4, TE3, TE5 and LI11 on the affected side, and blood flow of the radial artery was measured using the Minimax-Doppler-K device. Blood flow velocity and pulsation index were analyzed before, during, and after moxibustion. Simultaneously LF, HF, and LF/HF as variables for HRV were measured by FM-150. Results: The mean value of blood flow velocity in all patients (n=23) showed significant increase between before and after moxibustion, but there was no significant difference in pulsation index and LF, HF, LF/HF ratio between before and after moxibustion. In Yin (n=9) and Yang (n=14) groups, both showed significant increase of blood flow velocity between before and after moxibustion, but there was no significant difference in pulsation index and LF, HF, LF/HF ratio between before and after moxibustion. In Deficiency (n=14) and Fullness (n=9) groups, only the Deficiency group showed significant increase of blood flow velocity between before and after moxibustion, while the Fullness group showed no significant difference in blood flow velocity between before and after moxibustion, and also there was no significant difference in pulsation index and LF, HF, LF/HF ratio between before and after moxibustion. Conclusions: This study suggests that moxibustion on LI4, TE3, TE5 and LI11 on the affected side of stroke patients increase the peripheral blood flow in the affected arm, which was most remarkable in those with Yin and Deficiency pattern.

In order to increase the performance of conventional hot water floor heating system, the bubble jet loop heat pipe for the system was developed. This experiment was conducted under next conditions : Working fluid was R-134a, charging ratio was 50%. A temperature of hot water, room temperature and flow rate were $60^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$ and 0.5~1.5 kg/min, respectively. The experimental results, show that bubble jet loop heat pipe had a high effective thermal conductivity of $4714kW/m^{\circ}C$ and a sufficient heat flux of $73W/m^2$ to heat the floor to $35^{\circ}C$ in case of the 1.5 kg/min of flow rate. So the bubble jet loop heat pipe has a possibility for appling of the floor heating system. Additionally, the visualization of bubble jet loop heat pipe was performed to understand the operating principle. Bubbles made by the narrow gap between inner tube and outer tube of evaporating part generate pulsation at liquid surface of working fluid. The pulsation had slug flow and wavy flow. So working fluid circulates in the bubble jet loop heat pipe as two phase flow pattern. And large amount of heat is transferred by the latent heat from evaporating part to condensing part.

The condensate in a single vertical reflux condenser with a tube of the large L/D ratio could carried over in both ways of fill-and-dump and the annular occurrent to steam flow. From the experimental observation made, a theoretical model based on the lumped parameter method is made to understand the dynamics of the reflux condenser. The present model predicts well the time period of fill-and-dump model and the natural vibrational frequency of the water column. This could be a first step to understand the complex phenomena in the reflux condenser such as itd improved thermal performance due to the well controlled pulsation in steam flow and the tube-to tube effect in the multi tube reflux condenser.

Suction valve fluttering is generated by reciprocating motions of the piston inhaling and discharging process of gas in the hermetic compressor. A reactive type suction muffler, which produces high pressure-drop because of its complicated flow path, controls the impulsive noise radiated from the flutter of suction valve. The high-pressure drop in the muffler increases the transmission loss, but reduces the EER(Energy Efficiency Ratio) of the compressor. We consider how to design the high acoustic attenuation and low pressure-drop performance to take account of the acoustic and flow performances of the suction muffler. In this study, we identified the suction noise source of compressor from the measurement of the acoustic pulsation and flutter of suction valve. We analyzed the acoustic characteristics of muffler using the finite element method, and compared the experimental and analytical characteristics of flow path of suction muffler. Theoretical predictions and experimental results are compared from the viewpoint of the acoustic performance and energy efficiency of the compressor.

Square-wave current source inverter drives suffer from torque pulsation and speed variation at low speed. Attempts to minimize these problems, CSI PWM strategies have been reported. It is shown that these PWM strategies are based on unnecessarily restrictive modulation laws. In this paper, trapezoidal PWM strategy for CSI is investigated theoratically by double fourier series and we proposed Harmonic Speed ripple Factor(HSF) that is independent of motor parameters and load conditions. Speed ripple are considered in T-PWM and square wave inverter by HSF. We obtain modulation index(M) and carrier ratio (CR) for minimum speed ripple.

In this paper, The characteristics of the new superconducting maglev system which has quadruple armature windings is examined. This system can generate guidance force and levitation force as well as propulsion force by single ground coil. The time-domain analysis method and phasor analysis method are derived to analyze the characteristics of the proposed system. From the numerical examples for two kind of armature winding configurations, it is shown that the levitation force and guidance force can be generated by single armature winding of the linear synchronous motor without any other ground coils for levitation and guidance, and that double layer configuration has better characteristics in the qualitive characteristics. like as efficiency, pulsation of the electromagnetic forces and drag ratio, than the single layer configuration.
