  • The purpose of ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) plant control is to provide stable power efficiently by appropriately regulating the seawater flow rates and the working fluid flow rate under conditions of continually changing seawater temperatures. This paper describes digital control of working fluid flow rate based on an adaptive control theory for the "Imari 2" OTEC plant at Saga University. Provisions have been made for linkage between the software of the adaptive control theory and the hardware of the OTEC plant. In implementing the working fluid flow rate control, if persistency of excitation conditions are lost, the algorithm of identification often exhibits bursting phenomena. To avoid this difficulty, the stopping-and-starting rule for identification was derived and was used for the working fluid flow rate control. Satisfactory control performance was then obtained by using this digital control system.ol system.

  • In this paper we present the method that improve alarm security system using the electronic circuits added the emergency lamp by our proposed Algorithms. In conventional method the emergency lamp of warning & alarm system was not executed perfectly its performance because of battery with short life. For improving this problem we, using Peripheral Interface Controller IC, designed the circuit added the emergency lamp for an warning & alarm system and for prevent from stopping the electric current, and compared our proposed method with conventional method. By designing the circuit to stop up over charge we can extend life of battery, use of a stoppage of electric current in emergency and according to the lightness around. Therefore we are very convenient and profitable in our life. In this future we will study the method to lower the cost of architecture for practical utilization.

  • In the system of underground transmission line, the rate of electrical failure is very low, but, if once occuring, the failure evolves into a paralysis of the system, the time of restoration is very long, the damage from stopping of power supply is very serious, and the cost of restoration is very great. Because of these problems, you must try to protect the system and equipment from every electrical failure by contributing much carefulness to the design and operation of the underground system. This study summerizes the results of simmulation tests about the effect of installing this protection device on the insulated joint box and the terminal end box.

  • Measurement of Co-60 gamma rays has been made for establishment of exposure standard and analyze it's overall uncertainties. Exposure rate determined by the charge mode method using vibrating reed amplifier with cylinderical type cavity chamber. The values of a variety of physical constants and the correction factors are evaluated. The resulting exposure rate is 690.81 R/h at the distance of 1m from the source and the related uncertainties is ${\pm}0.8%$

  • In recent years, there has been keen interest in phosphor materials responding X-ray. Cesium iodide of the materials is a material with a high $\gamma$-ray stopping power due to its relative high density and atomic number. CsI is noted for its high resistance to thermal and mechanical shock due to the absence of a cleavage plane. To design the structure of CsI detector, we analysed the structure with SEM and XRD and measured UV meter.

  • Namhae chemical is one of the largest fertilizer manufacturing company in Korea which company has operating 4 unit agitator gear boxes and producing variety kinds of fertilizer production. The gearbox operating temperature of agitator is approximated in $55^{\circ}C{\sim}90^{\circ}C$ and required to keep operating continuous without stopping. The system required high performance oil and longer oil drain interval as limited workforce in maintenance team. It was lubricated by mineral gear oil of ISO VG 320 and also need to change to new oil frequently. Namhae Chemical would expect to keep stable operating condition without shut down and consider, lower cost of operation and equipment protection.

  • An amorphous $Se_{75}Ge_{25}$ thin film as inorganic resist for the focused ion beam lithography(FIBL) is investigated. This film offers an attractive potential alternative to polymer resists because of a number of advantages, such as the possibility of preparing physically uniform films of thickness as small as 200A and obtaining both positive and negative resist action in the same material, compatibility with dry processing, the sensitivity on optical, e-beam and ion beam exposure, the high-temperature stability, etc. In previous paper, the defocused ion beam-induced characteristics in a-$Se_{75}Ge_{25}$ film has been propose. Practically it is neccesary to know the relation with resist and source ions. For the purpose, the ion stopping power, the ion projected range and ion transmission coefficiency are studied. In this paper, the theoretically calculated values of parameters are presented and compared with theory.

  • We calculated the energy distribution and the percentage depth-dose at 10 cm in a $10{\times}10\;cm^2$ with a photon beam at SSD of 100 cm by using a Monte Carlo Simulation. PDD is used as a beam-quality specifier for radiotherapy beams. It is better than the commonly used values of TPR or nominal accelerating potential. The presence of electron contamination affects the measurement of PDD, but can be removed by the use of a 0.1 cm lead filter. It reduces surface dose from contaminant electrons from the accelerator by more than 90% for radiotherapy beams. The filter performs best when it is placed immediately below the head. An electron-contamination correction factor is introduced to correct for electron contamination from the filter and air. It converts PDD which includes the electron contamination with the filter in place into PDD for the photons in the filtered beam. The correction factor can be used to determine stopping-power ratio. Calculations show that the values of water-to-air slopping power ratio in the unfiltered beam are related to PDD.
