This paper presents the development of a high power amplifier for a transmitter of INMARSAT-C operating at L-band(1626.5∼1646.5 MHz). To simplify the fabrication process, the whole system is designed of two parts composed of a driving amplifier and a high power amplifier The HP's AT-41486 is used for driving part and the SGS-THOMSON microelectronics' STM1645 is used the high power amplifier. The SSPA(Solid State Power Amplifier) was fabricated by the both circuits of RF and temperature compensation in aluminum housing. The realized SSPA has more than 36 dB for small signal within 20MHz bandwidth, and the voltage standing wave ratios(VSWR) of input and output Port are less than 1.5:1, respectively. The output Power of 42.2 dBm is achieved at the 1636.5 MHz. These results reveal a high power amplifier of 20 Watt which is the design target.

The process of the wind noise analysis around an OSRVM is developed and is verified by simulating unsteady flow field past a generic OSRVM mounted on the flat plate at the Reynolds number of $Re_D=5.2{\times}10^5$ based on the mirror diameter. The transient flow field past a generic OSRVM is simulated with various turbulence models, namely DES-SA, LES Constant SGS, and LES Dynamic SGS. The sound radiation is predicted using the Ffowcs- Williams and Hawkings analogy. For the present simulation, the 6.35million cells are generated. Time averaged pressure coefficients at 34 locations on the surface of the generic OSRVM are compared with the available experimental data. Also, 12 Sound Pressure Levels located on the surrounding mirror are compared with the available experimental data. Both of them show good agreements with experimental data.

Taipei 101 Tower, which has 101 stories with height of 508 m, is located in Taipei where typhoons and earthquakes commonly occur. It is currently the second tallest building in the world. Therefore, the dynamic performance of the super-tall building under strong wind actions requires particular attentions. In this study, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) integrated with a new inflow turbulence generator and a new sub-grid scale (SGS) model was conducted to simulate the wind loads on the super-tall building. Three-dimensional finite element model of Taipei 101 Tower was established and used to evaluate the wind-induced responses of the high-rise structure based on the simulated wind forces. The numerical results were found to be consistent with those measured from a vibration monitoring system installed in the building. Furthermore, the equivalent static wind loads on the building, which were computed by the time-domain and frequency-domain analysis, respectively, were in satisfactory agreement with available wind tunnel testing results. It has been demonstrated through the validation studies that the numerical framework presented in this paper, including the recommended SGS model, the inflow turbulence generation technique and associated numerical treatments, is a useful tool for evaluation of the wind loads and wind-induced responses of tall buildings.

In this paper, numerical experiment is attempted to analyze and compare the combustion efficiency of the burning sprays due to OFO, FOF triplet / FOOF split doublet injectors. Preconditioned Wavier-Stokes equation system with low Reynolds number $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ model for turbulence closure, is LU-SGS time-integrated. Spray processes are modeled by DSF analysis with experimentally determined injection characteristics. n-heptane/air global reaction model approximates the combustion for simplicity, and the influence of turbulence on the chemical reaction is included using eddy dissipation model. The results showed the FOF triplet injector of highest combustion efficiency, whereas the OFO type of poet performance. It was also observed that the droplet mean diameter and the average gas temperature due to the mixing efficiency, are the representative parameters for the performance design of combustion.

Shotcrete, rockbolt, and steel rib are installed to support ground after tunnel was excavated. These are important supports for NATM applied tunnels. Recently, lattice girder is increasingly used because it is easily installed. In this study, we developed a new lattice girder by increasing contacting area between spider and rod. To verify the effect of the new lattice girder, the 3-point and 4-point flexural strength tests were carried out for LG-$50{\times}20{\times}30$, LG-$70{\times}20{\times}30$, LG-$95{\times}22{\times}32$. As a result, in case of contacting area, strength of new SGS lattice girder is 17.95% higher than that of original lattice girder. In case of weakness point, strength of new SGS lattice girder is 19.37% higher than that of original lattice girder.

The frequency of a power system should be maintained within the allowed limits for stable operation. When a disturbance such as generator tripping occurs in a power system, the frequency is recovered to the nominal value through the inertial, primary, and secondary responses of the operating synchronous generators (SGs). However, for a power system with high wind penetration, the system inertia will decrease significantly because wind generators (WGs) are operating decoupled from the power system. This paper proposes a dynamic droop-based inertial control for a WG. The proposed inertial control determines the dynamic droop depending on the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF). At the initial period of a disturbance, where the ROCOF is large, the droop is set to be small to release a large amount of the kinetic energy (KE) and thus the frequency nadir can be increased significantly. However, as times goes on, the ROCOF will decrease and thus the droop is set to be large to prevent over-deceleration of the rotor speed of a WG. The performance of the proposed inertial control was investigated in a model system, which includes a 200 MW wind power plant (WPP) and five SGs using an EMTP-RV simulator. The test results indicate that the proposed scheme improves the frequency nadir significantly by releasing a large amount of the KE during the initial period of a disturbance.

Sjögren syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by dryness of the mouth and eyes due to lymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands. In American European Consensus Group (AECG) criteria, abnormal salivary gland scintigraphy (SGS) result is one of the objective signs of SS and it has been proposed as a valid and non-invasive alternative approach to functional evaluation of salivary gland, especially in the case when unstimulated whole salivary flow is more than 1.5 mL in 15 minutes or other AECG criteria is unmet. Patients with SS are more likely to have the thyroid disease (TD), but this association remains controversial. We present a case of the use of SGS for diagnosis of primary SS and TD in patients with dry mouth and burning sensation of tongue. Through this case, we suggest the usefulness of salivary scintigraphy for screening TD in addition to diagnosis of SS.

In the present study, a strongly coupled analysis code is developed for transonic flutter analysis. For aerodynamic analysis, two dimensional Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equation was used for governing equation, and ε-SST for turbulence model, DP-SGS(Data Parallel Symmetric Gauss Seidel) Algorithm for parallelization algorithm. 2 degree-of-freedom pitch and plunge model was used for structural analysis. To obtain flutter response in the time domain, dual time stepping method was applied to both flow and structure solver. Strongly coupled method was implemented by successive iteration of fluid-structure interaction in pseudo time step. Computed results show flutter speed boundaries and limit cycle oscillation phenomena in addition to typical flutter responses - damped, divergent and neutral responses. It is also found that the accuracy of transonic flutter analysis is strongly dependent on the methodology of fluid-structure interaction as well as on the choice of turbulence model.

The paper describes a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) study of turbulent flow around a cavity. A series of three-dimensional cavities placed in a turbulent boundary layer are simulated at a Reynolds number of $1.0{\times}10^5$ by considering U and h, which represent the velocity at the top and the depth of the cavity, respectively. In order to obtain the appropriate solution for the filtered Navier-Stokes equation for incompressible flow, the computational mesh forms dense close to the wall of the cavity but relatively coarse away from the wall; this helps reduce computation cost and ensure rapid convergence. The Boussinesq hypothesis is employed in the subgrid-scale turbulence model. In order to determine the subgrid-scale turbulent viscosity, the Smagorinsky-Lilly SGS model is applied and the CFL number for time marching is set as 1.0. The results show the flow variations inside cavities of different sizes and shapes.
