The effects of ambient temperature on the discharge characteristics of Ne-Xe based micro discharge cells for ac-PDP (plasma display panel) have been studied. In ramp voltage driving, which is generally used as a reset method of PDP, two dissimilar modes of strong and weak discharge were found. As the interval between the former sustaining discharge and ramp voltage discharge becomes greater, the probability of a strong discharge increases. This suggests that a sufficient number of priming particles is necessary for initiating weak mode (Townsend discharge). It was discovered that under higher ambient temperatures, weak discharge occurs more frequently. The discharge time lag observed in square pulse driving of single cells becomes surprisingly smaller under higher ambient temperatures for the constant gas number density condition.

The present study addresses the open end correction associated with the reflection and discharge phenomena of a weak shock wave from an open end of a duct. The open end correction of the weak shock wave is investigated experimentally and by numerical computation. An experiment is made using a simple shock tube with an open end, and computation is performed to simulate the experimental flow field using the unsteady, axisymmetric, compressible, flow governing equations. The results obtained show that an open end correction should be involved for shock wave discharge and reflection problems generated from the exit of the duct with an open end baffle plate. With a baffle plate less than three times the duct diameter, it is found that the open end correction is a function of both the diameter of the baffle plate and normal shock wave magnitude. However, for a baffle plate larger than three times the duct diameter, it is independent of the baffle plate diameter. The present computations predict the results of shock tube experiment with good accuracy. A new empirical equation for prediction of the open end correction is found for the weak shock reflection and discharge phenomena occurring at the open end of the duct with and without a baffle plate.

Effects of delay on the discharge time lag and the controllability of weak discharge mode were studied under single cell driving circumstances of ac PDP. It was found that sufficient number of priming particle is necessary for inducing weak discharge in ramp voltage driving. Discharge time lag was reduced dramatically under priming condition. It is speculated that the increasement of strong discharge is related to the reduction of the $Xe^*(^3P_1)$ particles during the after glow.

Effects of delay and panel temperature on the discharge time lag and the controllability of weak discharge mode were studied under single cell driving circumstances of ac PDP. It was found that sufficient number of priming particle is necessary for inducing weak discharge in ramp voltage driving. Discharge time lag was reduced dramatically under elevated panel temperature condition It is speculated that decrement of discharge time lag at the high temperature is related to the reduction of diffusion loss of charged particles during the after glow.

교류형 플라즈마 디스플레이(AC PDP)의 유지기간 동안 강방전과 약방전을 발생시킬 수 있는 파형을 인가하여 계조의 선형성을 향상시키기 위한 새로운 유지 구동파형과 그의 구현 방법이 제안된다. AC PDP의 계조를 표현하기 위한 구동방법은 하나의 TV 프레임 내에 여러 개의 서브필드를 조합하는 것이며 각 서브필드 내의 휘도는 유지 펄스 개수의 차이에 의해 결정된다. 유지기간 동안 유지 펄스들이 인가되면 똑같은 크기의 강한 플라즈마 방전만 발생하므로 이상적으로 선형적 계조 표현이 용이해 보이지만, 각 서브필드 내에는 계조 표현과 상관없는 기입 방전과 첫 번째 유지 방전이 매번 발생하기 때문에 사실상 선형적 계조 표현이 어려워진다. 그러므로 유지기간 동안 유지 파형의 모양을 변형시켜서 강방전 대신 일부분 약방전도 발생시키는 새로운 유지 구동 파형을 적용하여 계조 표현을 선형에 가깝도록 개선하였다.

Turbo-pumps have weak points, such as the pumping operation is unstable on the positive slope of the head curve and/or the cavitation occurs at the low suction head. To improve simultaneously both weak points, the first author invented the unique pumping unit composed of the tandem impellers and the peculiar motor with the double rotational armatures. The front and the rear impellers are driven by the inner and the outer armatures of the motor, respectively. Both impeller speeds are automatically and smartly adjusted in response to the pumping discharge, while the rotational torques between both impellers/armatures are counter-balanced. Such speeds contribute to suppress successfully not only the unstable operation at the low discharge but also the cavitation at the high discharge, as verified with the axial flow type pumping unit in the previous paper. Continuously, this paper investigates experimentally the effects of the tandem impeller profiles on the pump performances and the rotational speeds against the discharge, using the impellers whose loads are low and/or high at the normal discharge. The worthy remarks are that (a) the unstable operation is suppressed as expected and the shut off power is scarcely large in the smart control, (b) the blade profile contributes to determine the discharge giving the maximum/minimum rotational speed where the reverse flow may incipiently appears at the front impeller inlet, (c) the tandem impeller profiles scarcely affect the rotational speeds, while the loads of the front and the rear impellers are same, but (d) the impeller with the low load must run faster and the impeller with the high load must run slower at the same discharge to take the same rotational torque, and (e) the reverse flow at the inlet and the swirling velocity component at the outlet of the front impeller with the high load require making the rotational speed of the rear impeller with low load fairly faster at the lower discharge.

Discharge capacity test is carried out to find out influencing factors on discharge capacity of prefabricated horizontal drains to improve weak dredged clay. Four representative prefabricated horizontal drains are selected based on the size of drain as well as the shape of core. Test is carried out for 10 days at each three level of confining pressure for all drains. Effects of elapsed time, confining pressure, hydraulic gradient and strength of filter and core on discharge capacities are examined. It is found that discharge capacity of drain, which has deformable core or has a possibility of squeezing filter into core, decreases more with time due to its low strength. As confining pressure increases, discharge capacity decreases due to the squeezing of filter into core.
