Minimization of hemolysis is one of the key factors for successful axial flow blood pumps. It is, however, difficult to estimate the hemolytic performance of axial flow blood pumps without experiments. Instead, the Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) analysis enables the prediction of hemolysis. Three-dimensional fluid dynamics of axial flow pumps with different impellers were analyzed using the CFD software, FLOTRAN. The turbulence model k-$\varepsilon$ was used. The changes in turbulent kinetic energy applied to each particle (red blood cell) flowing through the pumps were computed and displayed by the particle trace method (particle spacing of 10 msec). Also, the Reynolds shear stress was calculated from the turbulent kinetic energy. The shear stress was higher behind the impellers than elsewhere. The CFD analysis could predict in vitro results of hemolysis and also the areas where hemolysis occurred. The CFD analysis was found to be a useful tool for designing less hemolytic rotary blood pumps.

A lamp heated LPCVD equipment has been made. Wafer is heated by an array of fifteen tungsten halogen lamps above the front side of a wafer and pyrometer views the back side of the wafer through $CaF_2$ window. Reactor which consisits of a quartz window and a water cooled-stainless steel plate can be evacuated to $5{\times}10^{-3}$ torr with a rotary vane pump. By pyrolysis of $SiH_4$ at about $600^{\circ}C$, polysilicon has been formed on the silicon dioxide film. The measured results show that thickness nonuniformity is 15% and temperature nonuniformity is 1.1%. Because activation energy of pyrolysis of $SiH_4$ is very high, about 1.8eV, small temperature variation will induce large thickness nonuniformity. The main cause of temperature nonuniformity is unsymmetry of lamp power and an unbalanced cooling structure. Charls & Evans' SIMS result shows that the oxygen content in the deposited polysilicon is comparable to that of silicon substrate but carbon content is ten times higher.

This paper presents the analysis results on the electrical output performance characteristics of a 746 W high temperature superconducting generator (HTSG). The HTS field winding is charged by non-contact excitation method, i.e., contactless superconducting field exciter (CSFE) which is originated by rotary flux pump based on permanent magnet. In this paper, the preliminary current charging test was carried out using a 70 A CSFE to evaluate the performance of field exciter and analyze its non-contact excitation characteristics for the full-scale HTS field winding of the 746 W HTSG. First, the various contactless current-charging tests were conducted using assembly with HTS field winding and CSFE. Then, in order to estimate the output power performance characteristics of the 746 W HTSG, finite element analysis was conducted based on field excitation information which is experimentally measured under various operating conditions. Finally, the electrical output characteristics in no-load and load models were simulated by two-dimensional transient solver in ANSYS electromagnetics 19.0 release.

Bulk YBCO 초전도체는 top-seeded melt-growth 방법으로 제조되었다. YBCO bulk는 Epoxy resin과 $AgNO_3$를 보강해 초전도체의 기계적 강도를 향상하고자 하였다. Epoxy resin은 보강 재료인 STYCAST 2850-FT와 경화제인 CATALYST 24LV 를 100:5 비율로 혼합하여 제조한 후 mould에 넣고 $66^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 열처리 하였다 (rotary pump로 진공 분위기 조성). $AgNO_3$는 $350^{\circ}C$에서 2시간, $450^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 열처리 하여 Ag와 $NO_3$의 분리 후 YBCO bulk에 Ag가 보강되도록 하였다. Epoxy resin 과 분리된 Ag는 YBCO bluk의 crack과 void에 침투되는 것을 SEM과 광학현미경을 통해 관찰할 수 있었다. Three point bending test를 이용하여 보강 전후의 YBCO bulk의 기계적 강도를 측정하였다. 보강 후의 YBCO bluk의 기계적 강도는 보강 전에 비해 향상된 결과를 확인할 수 있었고, Epoxy resin과 $AgNO_3$를 보강한 YBCO는 기계적 강도 향상에 높은 신뢰성을 보이고 있다.

In this paper, in order to compare the mixing ratio according to the feeding method, the input error of the main material and the sub material was measured and analyzed for 100 cycles using raw material having the same viscosity. As a result of the piston pump method, the input error of main material and sub material varied greatly from 0g to 3g, and the maximum error ratio was 10.3%. In the dual-screw rotation method, the input error varied from 0.01g to 0,4g, and the maximum error ratio was 0.41%, and almost no input error occurred. As the process cycle increased, it was found that the feed was almost uniform. The dual-screw rotary two-component mixing system was used to measure and analyze the inputs of the main and sub materials for 100 using three types of liquid silicones with different viscosities of the raw materials. As a result, the average error was 0.75g and the error rate was less than 1% regardless of the viscosity of the applied raw materials. When rae materials having the same viscosity were used, the average error ratio of the piston pump method was 4.09%.

Current feeder system (CFS) for Korea superconducting tokamak advanced research(KSTAR) project plays a role to interconnect magnet power supply (MPS) and superconducting (SC) magnets through the normal bus-bar at the room temperature(300 K) environment and the SC bus-line at the low temperature (4.5 K) environment. It is divided by two systems, i.e., toroidal field system which operates at 35 kA DC currents and poloidal field system wherein 20$\sim$26 kA pulsed currents are applied during 350 s transient time. Aside from the vacuum system of main cryostat, an independent vacuum system was constructed for the CFS in which a roughing system is consisted by a rotary and a mechanical booster pump and a high vacuum system is developed by four cryo-pumps with one dry pump as a backing pump. A self interlock and its control system, and a supervisory interlock and its control system are also established for the operational reliability as well. The entire CFS was completely tested including the reliability of local/supervisory control/interlock, helium gas leakage, vacuum pressure, and so on.

Since the start of the KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) project, Instrumentation and Control (I&C) of the Neutral Beam Test Facility (NB-TF) has been striving to answer diverse requests arising from various facets during the project's development and construction phases. Hard-wired electrical circuits have been designed, tested, fabricated, and finally installed to the relevant parts of the system. In relation to the vacuum system I&C, controlling functions for the rotary pumps, a Roots pump, two turbomolecular pumps, and four cryosorption pumps have been constructed. I&C for the ion source operation are the temperature and flow rate signal monitoring, Langmuir probe signal measurements, gradient grid current measurements, and arc detector circuit. For the huge power system to be monitored or safely operated, many temperature measurement functions have also been implemented for the beam line components like the neutralizer, bending magnet, ion dump, and calorimeter. Nearly all of the control and probe signals between the NB test stand and the control room were made to be transmitted through the optical cables. Failures of coolant flow or beam line vacuum pressure were made to be safely blocked from influencing the system by an appropriate interlock circuit that will shut down the extraction voltage application to the system or prevent damages to the vacuum components. Preliminary estimation of the beam power through the calorimetric measurement shows that 87.9% of the total power of the 60kV/18A beam with 200 seconds duration is absorbed by the calorimeter surface. Most of these I&C results would be highly appropriate for the construction of the main NBI facility for the KSTAR national fusion research project.
