For heat-assisted magnetic recording, magnetization reversal probabilities of nano-Pt/MnSb multilayer film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy under thermal pulse activation were investigated numerically by solving the Landau-Lifshift Gilbert Equation. Magnetic parameters of nano-Pt/MnSb multilayer were used with anisotropy energy of $3{\times}10^5$ erg/cc and saturation magnetization of 2100 G, which offer more than 10 y data stability at room temperature. Scheme of driven magnetic field and thermal pulse on writing mechanism was designed closely to real experiment. This study found that the chosen material is potential to be used as a high density magnetic storage that requires low writing field less than two-hundreds Oersted through definite heating and cooling interval. The possibility of writing data with a zero driven magnetic field also became an important result. Further study is recommended on the thickness of media and thermal pulse design as the essential parameters of the reversal magnetization.

Particle contamination has been an ongoing problem affecting the reliability of the magnetic hard disk drives. Especially the recent use of MR head requires much tighter control of particle contamination due to thermal asperity (TA) phenomenon. In this study, the effects of slider air bearing surface design of TA reduction capability were investigated by manufacturing two types of sliders. Numerical methods were used to simulate the motion of particles in the head/media interface. Experiments were conducted to verify the results predicted by the numerical simulation. Drives were built and exposed to particle contamination using a particle injection chamber, which turned out to be a very simple and reliable particle generation method over conventional aerosol technique. Then the number of TA generated in the drives was recorded and compared. Also the contacts between slider and particles were investigated by acoustic emission study. It was found that a new ABS design, which has aerodynamic U-shaped rail and central flow passage, was beneficial in reducing the particle contamination on the slider.

Computational fluid dynamics analysis was carried out for thermo-chemical flow field in Arcjet thruster with mono-propellant Hydrazine ($N_2$H$_4$) as a working fluid. The theoretical formulation is based on the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations for compressible flows with thermal radiation. The electric potential field governed by Maxwell equation is loosely coupled with the fluid dynamics equations through the Ohm heating and Lorentz force. Chemical reactions were assumed being infinitely fast due to the high temperature field inside the arcjet thruster. An equilibrium chemistry module for nitrogen-hydrogen mixture and a thermal radiation module for optically thin media were incorporated with the fluid dynamics code. Thermo-physical process inside the arcjet thruster was understood from the flow field results and the performance prediction shows that the thrust force is increased by amount of 3 times with 0.6KW arc heating.

Cell walls of microalgae consist of a polysaccharide and glycoprotein matrix providing the cells with a formidable defense against its environment. Anaerobic digestion (AD) of microalgae is primarily inhibited by the chemical composition of their cell walls containing biopolymers able to resist bacterial degradation. Adoption of pre-treatments such as thermal, thermal hydrolysis, ultrasound and enzymatic hydrolysis have the potential to remove these inhibitory compounds and enhance biogas yields by degrading the cell wall, and releasing the intracellular algogenic organic matter (AOM). This paper preproposal stage investigated the effect of different pre-treatments on microalgae cell wall, and their impact on the quantity of soluble biomass released in the media and thus on the digestion process yields. This Paper present optimum approach to degradation of the cell wall by ultra-sonication with practical design specification parameter for ultrasound based pretreatment system. As a result of this paper presents, a microalgae system in a wastewater treatment flowsheet for residual nutrient uptake can be justified by processing the waste biomass for energy recovery. As a conclusion on this result, Low energy harvesting technologies and pre-treatment of the algal biomass are required to improve the overall energy balance of this integrated system.

We carry out three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of the supernova remnants (SNRs) produced inside molecular clouds (MCs) near their surface using the HLL code (Harten et al. 1983). We explore the dynamical evolution and the X-ray morphology of SNRs after breaking through the MC surface for ranges of the explosion depths below the surface and the density ratios of the clouds to the intercloud media (ICM). We find that if an SNR breaks out through an MC surface in its Sedov stage, the outermost dense shell of the remnant is divided into several layers. The divided layers are subject to the Rayleigh-Taylor instability and fragmented. On the other hand, if an SNR breaks through an MC after the remnant enters the snowplow phase, the radiative shell is not divided to layers. We also compare the predictions of previous analytic solutions for the expansion of SNRs in stratified media with our onedimensional simulations. Moreover, we produce synthetic X-ray surface brightness in order to research the center-bright X-ray morphology shown in thermal composite SNRs. In the late stages, a breakout SNR shows the center-bright X-ray morphology inside an MC in our results. We apply our model to the observational results of the X-ray morphology of the thermal composite SNR 3C 391.

The CUPID code has been developed at KAERI for a transient, three-dimensional analysis of a two-phase flow in light water nuclear reactor components. It can provide both a component-scale and a CFD-scale simulation by using a porous media or an open media model for a two-phase flow. In this paper, recent advances in the CUPID code are presented in three sections. First, the domain decomposition parallel method implemented in the CUPID code is described with the parallel efficiency test for multiple processors. Then, the coupling of CUPID-MARS via heat structure is introduced, where CUPID has been coupled with a system-scale thermal-hydraulics code, MARS, through the heat structure. The coupled code has been applied to a multi-scale thermal-hydraulic analysis of a pool mixing test. Finally, CUPID-SG is developed for analyzing two-phase flows in PWR steam generators. Physical models and validation results of CUPID-SG are discussed.

A computer simulation, utilizing the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, of ultra-high- density recording on continuous longitudinal media is carried out. The two important features of this work are the use of a planar-type head, which enables a high write field of 14183 Oe ts be generated at the center of the recording medium, and the media with very high coercivities up to 13010 Oe. From a systematic investigation, it is found that the optimum write field is higher than the medium coercivity by only 3400 Oe over a wide coercivity range. This new finding allows one to write an a medium with a very high coercivity by using a planar-type head. It is demonstrated that a reasonably good bit pattern with a bit density of 605 kfci is generated on the medium with a coercivity of l1720 Oe, and, combined with a high track pitch density of 100 ktpi, a recording density of 60 Gb/in$^2$can be obtained in a single layer medium. With an improved write- head designs even a higher recording density of 75 Gb/in$^2$may be possible since comparison of the results for the bit pattern from the present head profile and the ideal Lindholm profile indicates an increase in the track pitch density of about 27%. Even at this density, the thermal stability parameter (KV/kT) at room temperature is high enough (60) to provide ample room for thermal stability.

A correct understanding of vibration-based degradation is crucial from the standpoint of maintenance for Steam Generators (SG) as crucial mechanical equipment in nuclear power plants. This study has established a novel approach to developing a model for investigating tube bundle degradation according to crack growth caused by two-phase Flow-Induced Vibration (FIV). An important step in the approach is to calculate the two-phase flow field parameters between the SG tube bundles in various zones using the porous media model to determine the velocity and vapor volume fraction. Afterward, to determine the vibration properties of the tube bundles, the Fluid-Solid Interaction (FSI) analysis is performed in eighteen thermal-hydraulic zones. Tube bundle degradation based on crack growth using the sixteen most probable initial cracks and within each SG thermal-hydraulic zone is performed to calculate useful lifetime. Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model, Paris law, and Wiener process model are considered to model the turbulent crossflow around the tube bundles, simulation of elliptical crack growth due to the vibration characteristics, and estimation of SG tube bundles degradation, respectively. The analysis shows that the tube deforms most noticeably in the zone with the highest velocity. As a result, cracks propagate more quickly in the tube with a higher height. In all simulations based on different initial crack sizes, it was observed that zone 16 experiences the greatest deformation and, subsequently, the fastest degradation, with a velocity and vapor volume fraction of 0.5 m/s and 0.4, respectively.

CUPID 코드는 기기 스케일(Component scale)의 2상 유동(Two-phase flow) 해석 코드로서 다양한 2상 유동 조건의 실험 자료를 이용하여 검증되어 왔다. 특히, CUPID 코드의 CANDU형 원자로 감속재 탱크 내부 유동 해석능력을 평가하기 위해 1/4 규모 축소 실험장치의 실험결과를 이용하여 검증한 바가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이전 연구를 바탕으로 CUPID 코드를 사용하여 실제 원자로 감속재탱크 내부의 열수력 거동을 해석하였다. 감속재 탱크의 내부 구조는 아주 복잡하기 때문에 다공질 매질 방법을 적용하였으며 탱크 입구노즐 또한 기기 스케일 코드의 취지에 부합하게 아주 단순화하여 모델하였다. 해석결과의 정확성을 결정하는 가장 중요한 요소는 입구노즐의 모델 방법에 있는 것으로 나타났다. 입구노즐을 단순하게 모델하여 입구유량을 경계조건으로 부여하고 발전소 정상운전조건으로 계산한 결과, 부력에 의한 열성층화 현상이 발생하였다. 이는 전혀 타당하지 않은 것으로 입구 유동의 모멘텀을 정확하게 모의하지 않아 발생한 것이 나타났다. 이를 개선하고자 입구 유량과 운동량을 동시에 보존시킬 수 있도록 입구 노즐 면적을 축소하고 속도는 증가시켜서 계산한 결과, 사실적인 내부 유동장을 얻을 수 있었다. 결론적으로 계산 비용효과가 뛰어난 다공질 매질 방법에 입각하여 CUPID 코드를 실규모 감속재 탱크 열유동 해석에 적용할 수 있음을 보였고, 입구노즐의 적절한 모델이 가장 중요한 요소임을 확인하였다.
