  • Polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tools possessing high hardness and abrasive wear resistance are particularly suited for drilling of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites, where tool life and consistent hole quality are important. While PCD presents superior performance when drilling CFRP, it is unclear how it performs when drilling multi-stack materials such as CFRP-titanium (Ti) stacks. This comparative study aims to investigate drilling of a Ti plate stacked on a CFRP panel when using PCD tools. The first sequence of the drilling experiments was to drill 20 holes in CFRP only. CFRP-Ti stacks were then drilled for the next 20 holes with the same drill bit. CFRP holes and CFRP-Ti stack holes were evaluated in terms of machined hole quality. The main tool wear mechanism of PCD drills is micro-fractures that occur when machining the Ti plate of the stack. Tool wear increases the instability and the operation temperature when machining the Ti plate. This results in high drilling forces, large hole diameter errors, high surface roughness, wider CFRP exit thermal damage, and taller exit Ti burrs.

  • We investigated the malfunction and destruction characteristics of microcontroller devices under high power electromagnetic(HPEM) wave by magnetron. HPEM was rated at a microwave output of 0 to 1,000 W, at a frequency of 2,450${\pm}$50 MHz and was radiated from the open-ended standard rectangular waveguide(WR-340) to free space. The influence of different reset-, clock-, data-, and power supply-line lengths has been tested. The variation of the line length was done with flat cables. The susceptibility of the tested microcontroller devices was in general much influenced by clock-, reset-, and power supply-line length, little influenced by data-line length. Further the line length was increased, the malfunction threshold was decreased as expected, because more energy couples to the devices. The surfaces of the destroyed microcontroller devices were removed and the chip conditions were investigated with microscope. The microscopic analysis of the damaged devices showed component and bondwire destructions such as breakthroughs and melting due to thermal effects. The obtained results are expected to provide fundamental data for interpreting the combined mechanism of microcontroller devices in an intentional microwave environment.

  • Occasionally, equipment in a distribution system fails due to damage from weather, vandalism, or other causes. Failures and unexpected events do not always occur as and where expected. Therefore, a good contingency plan, multi-zone or otherwise, provides flexibility by locating switches at various strategic locations so that parts of a feeder can be picked up in the event of line outages at various places. It is possible to create feeder system layout that achieve remarkable contingency support economics, even as their normal peak loading levels approach thermal capacity, by utilizing six, seven, or even nine switchable zones per feeder. But many switchable zones per feeder are of questionable practicality and effectiveness, because of the complexity and time required for the switching operation. In practice, a zonal scheme with between three and four zones will usually provide complete contingency backup for all feeders. Line switches have both capital and maintenance costs, the planning for multi-zonal schemes is considerably more difficult than or loop or single-zone systems, and the required switching operations required during contingencies take more time. But multi-zonal schemes are used because these costs come to far less than the cost of additional capacity required for loop or single-zone. In this paper, we present the optimal number of switchable zones per feeder in Kora distribution system.

  • Opening an ancient tomb interior can deal fair damage for preservation in long period because of high moisture. In this study, a duct-type HVAC system was installed to preserve an ancient tomb and temperature and humidity was measured to analyze heat environment. Armhole was measured to search whether an ancient tomb receives effects of vibration caused by a duct-type HVAC system. According to the measured data, temperature in an ancient tomb is kept adaptively in conservation regardless of a duct-type HVAC system installation when it rains in summer. The other side, humidity is kept adaptively in conservation when installed duct-type HVAC system. But when it is in natural state, a lot of humidity by dew condensation phenomena. So it needs a duct-type system for an ancient tomb conservation. In the case of vibration, measurement value of 3 satisfy control but Germanic DIN 4150 does not satisfy. Therefore, equip must be such that it can prevent vibration for safety.

  • In the regeneratively cooled combustion chambers of liquid rocket engine using hydrocarbon fuels, coking occurs as the wall temperature increases which results in compounds deposition on the wall of cooling channels. This phenomenon reduces cooling capability of the coolant which finally causes damage to the combustor by overheating of the chamber wall. In this paper, experiment results using an electrical heating equipment to simulate the regeneratively cooled channel are introduced and based on the results the compatibility of copper alloy with hydrocarbon fuel Jet A-1 is investigated.

  • The objective of IM rocket motor is to minimize the probability of inadvertent initiation and severity of subsequent collateral damage, hence it is important to define personnel and equipment survivability to a rocket motor accident. The violent response probability associated with shock, impact and thermal effects be minimized. And during production, transportation/storage and stack of rocket motor, sympathetic detonation, giving severe effects of the propagation of adverse reaction on its surroundings, be reduced. Hence Reaction type also based on reaction results of the overpressure, fragment throw and heat flux.

  • The presence of crust on the inner walls of metallic ducts impairs transportation because crust completely or partially hinders the passage of fluid to the processing unit and causes damage to equipment connected to the production line. Its localization is crucial. With the development of the electronic imaging system installed at the Argonauta/Nuclear Engineering Institute (IEN)/National Nuclear Energy Commission (CNEN) reactor, it became possible to visualize crust in the interior of metallic piping of small diameter using real-time neutron radiography images obtained with a low neutron flux. The obtained images showed the resistance offered by crust on the passage of water inside the pipe. No discrepancy of the flow profile at the bottom of the pipe, before the crust region, was registered. However, after the passage of liquid through the pipe, images of the disturbances of the flow were clear and discrepancies in the flow profile were steep. This shows that this technique added the assembled apparatus was efficient for the visualization of the crust and of the two-phase flows.

  • The vegetable-based insulating oils are substitutes for mineral oils in oil-filled transformer. The important properties of vegetable insulating oil is their higher flash/fire point and biodegradability than conventional mineral oils. The large oil-filled transformer eliminate the risk of explosion and fire should the transformer fail and oil ignite owing to high flash/fire point of vegetable insulating oil. In addition, higher biodegradability of vegetable insulating oils can let the oil spill damage reduced. In this experiment, the real oil-filled transformers using mineral oil and vegetable oil have accelerated aging. After working on the 100% accelerated aging experiment were conducted comparing the transformer. The hottest-spot temperature using thermal coefficients were calculated to determin the degree of accelerated aging. As a result, apply mineral oil transformer in accordance with the accelerated aging life come to an end. In contrast, vegetable insulating oils showed the opposite characteristics. Vegetable insulating oil compared to the mineral oil are found to be an long life. As a result, the vegetable oil has a long-term stability.

  • Two SiC radiation detector samples were irradiated by Co-60 gamma rays. The irradiation was performed with dose rates of 5 kGy/hour and 15 kGy/hour for 8 hours, respectively. Metal/semiconductor contacts on the surface were fabricated by using a thermal evaporator in a high vacuum condition. The SiC detectors have metal contacts of Au(2000 ${\AA}$)/Ni(300 ${\AA}$) at Si-face and of Au(2000 ${\AA}$)/Ti(300 ${\AA}$) at C-face. I-V characteristics of the SiC semiconductor were measured by using the Keithley 4200-SCS parameter analyzer with voltage sources included. From the I-V curve, we analyzed the Schottky barrier heights(SBHs) on the basis of the thermionic emission theory. As a result, the 6H-SiC semiconductor showed- similar Schottky barrier heights independent to the dose rates of the irradiation with Co-60 gamma rays.

  • This paper is studied for the improvement of the characteristics of gate oxide with 3-nm-thick gate oxide by deuterium ion implantation methode. Deuterium ions were implanted to account for the topography of the overlaying layers and placing the D peak at the top of gate oxide. A short anneal at forming gas to nitrogen was performed to remove the damage of D-implantation. We simulated the deuterium ion implantation to find the optimum condition by SRIM (stopping and range of ions in matter) tool. We got the optimum condition by the results of simulation. We compare the electrical characteristics of the optimum condition with others terms. We also analyzed the electrical characteristics to change the annealing conditions after deuterium ion implantation. The results of the analysis, the breakdown time of the gate oxide was prolonged in the optimum condition. And a variety of annealing, we realized the dielectric property that annealing is good at longer time. However, the high temperature is bad because of thermal stress.
