In this study, the distribution of $CO_2$ in an evaporator with 10 parallel micro channel aluminum tubes are experimentally investigated. Each tube has 6 circular micro channels with a diameter of 0.8mm. The tubes are heated with electric resistance wires, and the distribution of $CO_2$ into each tube is investigated by measuring the outer wall temperature. The outer wall temperature was found to be higher at the exit part of the top tube. It is thought that the $CO_2$ vapor at the upper part of the header reduces the mass flow rate of $CO_2$ into the top tube.

In this letter, a small-sized ultra-high frequency (UHF) RFID tag antenna for a medical sample tube is proposed. The RFID tag antenna is designed and fabricated based on the circular loop antenna used in the UHF band (Korea standard, 917 MHz to 923.5 MHz). The tag antenna size is reduced using a circular meander stub. The antenna has a physical size of 8 mm, which is about ${\lambda}$/40 in electrical length. The proposed tag antenna is molded into a medical sample and multitag identification is performed.

In this study, a novel fractal ring antenna with a compact size of $24{\times}9{\times}0.8mm^3$ was configured using three iterations. Low profile, circular polarization, and measured operating bands (4.5-6.5 GHz) meet specifications of the upper band used in Wi-Fi and WiMAX applications. The antenna featured, stable radiation properties, especially gain and efficiency, in the notched band (92%). In deep, the antenna impedance, reflection coefficients, surface current distribution and circular polarization for the three iterations had been studied to improve the process of antenna design and its radiation characteristics.

The effects of casing shapes on the interaction of the impeller and volute in a small-size turbo-compressor are investigated. Numerical analysis is conducted for the compressor with circular and single volute casings from inlet to discharge nozzle. In order to predict the flow pattern inside the entire impeller, vaneless diffuser, and casing, calculations with a multiple frame of reference method between the rotating and stationery parts of the domain are carried out. For incompressible turbulent flow fields, the continuity and three-dimensional time-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are employed. To predict the performance of two types of casings, the static pressure and loss coefficients are obtained with various flow rates. Also, static pressure distributions around casings are studied for different casing shapes, which are very important to predict the distribution of radial load.

Structure and Properties of sericinjam sericin extracted was investigated using SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, UV, CD, and DSC. The molecular weight and its distribution of sericinjam sericin showed broad tailing pattern. Circular dichlroism spectra showed that the structure of sericinjam sericin in solution was different with domestic one. However, differential thermal calorimetric properties are similar to each other.

A study of forced convection in a circular pipe with a partially filled porous medium was numerically investigated. The Brinkman-Forchheimer extension of the Darcy model was used to analyze the and temperature distribution in the porous medium. Our study includes two types of porous layer configurations: (1) a layer attached at the tube wall extending inward towards the centerline and (2) a layer at the centerline extending outward. The effect of several parameters, such as Darcy number, effective viscosity, effective thermal conductivity, and inertia parameter, as well as the effect of geometric parameters, were investigated.

In this study, 3 kinds of holes (square, circular and elliptic holes) are attempted on a cantilever to reduce the weight by 30%. Maximum Von-Mises stresses of cantilever plate with 3 kinds of holes are investigated. For the elliptic holes, a shape optimization is attempted to fad the optimum angle of axis by rotating the axis by $10^{\circ}\; from\; 50^{\circ}\; to\; 120^{\circ}\;$ From the results, it is known that the maximum stress is decreased to 0.868 MPa by rotation of the axis of elliptic hole and 0.26 MPa is decreased compared with the maximum stress occurred on the circular hole.

The flora of vascular plants in Jangsanbong located at Busan Metropolitan City was investigated from April 2003 to April 2004. Vascular plants in the surveyed area were 254 taxa that belonged to 78 families, 175 genera, 218 species, 34 varieties, and 2 forma. Among them, 20 taxa of evergreen broad trees, 31 taxa of naturalized plants were identified, and especially Rubus trifidus was first recorded in Busan. In the upper part of a circular road dominant species was Pinus thunbergii. In the lower part of a circular road and the coastal area, dominant species were Platycarya strobilacea, Clerodendron trichotomum, Euscaphis japonica, Quercus aliena, Quercus dentata, Mallotus japonicus, which distribute mainly in the subtropical and temperate zone. In the surveyed area, the canopy consistsed of tall trees, Pinus thunbergii, and the understratum were trees such as Eurya japonica, Ficus erecta, Ligustrum japonicum, Prunus sargentii, and Celtis sinensis var. japonica.

A unique process was developed to improve the mechanical properties of a circular tube. In this proposed process, a large amount of strain is applied to the wall of tube, leading to grain refinement in the material. In order to investigate characteristics of microstructural evolution such as the distribution of grain size and misorientation angle during the process, an EBSD OIM analysis was carried out. The analysis confirms that the proposed process can very effectively produce a circular tube with ultrafine-grains.

The vortex particle method, which includes viscous effects, consists of diffusion of boundary vorticity and creation of the vortex particles, convection, particle strength exchange, and particle redistribution. Accuracy of the boundary element method is very important since it creates the particles around the body at every time step. A boundary element method based on source panel was investigated as part of computation of unsteady separated flows by rising the vortex particle method. The potential flows were computed around a circular cylinder and a square cylinder. The results around the circular cylinder were compared with the exact solution, and the distribution of vorticity, in particular near the sharp comers of the square cylinder, is scrutinized for different number of panels.
