For the heat and fluid flow analyses of a parallel flow heat exchanger, an improved model considering the effect of flat tube with micro-channels is proposed. The effect of flow distribution on the thermal performance of a heat exchanger is numerically investigated. The flow distribution is examined by varying geometrical parameters, i.e., the position of the separators and the inlet/outlet, and the aspect ratio of micro-channels of the heat exchanger. The flow nonuniformities along the paths of the heat exchanger are proposed and observed to evaluate the thermal performance of the heat exchanger. The optimization using ALM method has been accomplished by minimizing the flow nonuniformity. It is found that the heat transfer rate of the optimized model is increased by 6.0% of that of the reference heat exchanger model, and the pressure drop by 0.4%

The main purpose of this paper is to study the lightlike hypersurface (M, $\overline{g}$) of cosymplectic space form $\overline{M}$(c). In this paper, we computed the Gauss and Codazzi formulae of (M, $\overline{g}$) of cosymplectic manifold ($\overline{M}$, g). We showed that we can't obtain screen semi-invariant lightlike hypersurface (SCI-LH) of $\overline{M}$(c) with parallel second fundamental form h, parallel screen distribution and c ≠ 0. We showed that if second fundamental form h and local second fundamental form B are parallel, then (M, $\overline{g}$) is totally geodesic. Finally we showed that if (M, $\overline{g}$) is umbilical, then cosymplectic manifold ($\overline{M}$, g) is flat.

This paper describes the magnetic orientation of bull sperm separated into the head and the flagellum treated by DTT or heparin in a 5,400G static field. Semen samples collected from four bulls (Japanese Black) were mixed to the same sperm density. One percentage triton X-100 was used to extract the plasma membrane. The intact and demembranated sperm suspensions were treated with 20, 200, 2,000 mM DTT, 100, 1,000 or 10,000 units heparin solutions at $4^{\circ}C$ for 6 days. The decondensation of the sperm nuclei treated by DTT or heparin was examined by measuring the head area at 1, 3 and 6 days. After measuring the area, each sample was exposed to a 5,400G static magnetic field generated by Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets for 24 hours at room temperature. Results showed that the sperms were separated into the head and the flagellum through the DTT treatment. Almost of the separated heads showed that their long axis oriented perpendicularly to the magnetic lines of force, and most of the long axis perpendicularly oriented heads showed that their flat plane oriented perpendicularly in a 5,400G magnetic field. Also, the demembranation of the head tended to increase those perpendicular orientations, while those perpendicular orientations of the head declined with the decondensation of the sperm nuclei. These findings suggest that strong magnetic anisotropy for the perpendicular orientation of the long axis and the flat plane of the head occurs in the sperm nuclei in a 5,400G magnetic field. The separated flagellum showed lower parallel orientation, and the separated and demembranated flagellum showed parallel orientation to the magnetic lines of force in this magnetic field. These findings suggest that weak magnetic anisotropy of the parallel orientation of the flagellum occurs in the inside components in a 5,400G field.

Generally, integral image used for autostereoscopic 3d display is generated for flat lens array, but flat lens array cannot provide a wide range of view for generated integral image because of narrow range of view. To make up for this flat lens array's weak point, curved lens array has been proposed, and due to technical and cost problem, approximate surface lens array composed of several flat lens array is used instead of ideal curved lens array. In this paper, we constructed an approximate surface lens array arranged for $20{\times}8$ square flat lens in 100mm radius sphere, and we could get about twice angle of view compared to flat lens array. Specially, unlike existing researches which manually generate integral image, we propose an OpenCL GPU parallel process algorithm for generating real-time integral image. As a result, we could get 12-20 frame/sec speed about various 3D volume data from $15{\times}15$ approximate surface lens array.

KIER has been developing the anode supported flat tubular SOFC stack for the intermediate temperature $(700{\sim}800^{\circ}C)$ operation. for this purpose, we have first fabricated anode supported flat tubular cells by the optimization between the current collecting method and the induction brazing process. After that we designed the compact fuel & air manifold by adopting the simulation technique to uniformly supply fuel & air gas and the unique seal & insulation method to make the more compact stack. For making stack, the prepared anode-supported flat tubular cells with effective electrode area of $90cm^2$ of connected in series with 12 modules, in which one module consists of two cells connected in parallel. The performance of stack in 3 % humidified $H_2$ and air at $800^{\circ}C$ shows maximum power of 507 W. Through these experiments, we obtained basic & advanced technology of the anode-supported flat tubular cell and established the proprietary concept of the anode-supported flat tubular SOFC stack in KIER.

The refrigerant R-134a flow distributions are experimentally studied for a round header/ten flat tube test section simulating a brazed aluminum heat exchanger. Three different inlet orientations (parallel, normal, vertical) were investigated. Tests were conducted with downward flow for the mass flux from 70 to $130\;kg/m^2s$ and quality from 0.2 to 0.6. In the test section, tubes were flush-mounted with no protrusion into the header. It is shown that normal and vertical inlet yielded approximately similar flow distribution. At high mass fluxes or high qualities, however, slightly better results were obtained for normal inlet configuration. The flow distribution was worst for the parallel inlet configuration. Possible explanation is provided based on flow visualization results.

Most of the plastics products have been manufactured by injection molding. Molding trouble in injection-molded parts is caused by changing a molding product and molding process condition, etc. In this study, warpage in the injection molded part have been studied. Specimens are rectangular flat shape with and without ribs. Non-crystalline resins (ABS+GF30%, PC+GF30%) and crystalline resins (PP+GF30%, PA66+GF30%) were used for material. Flat shape ribs showed higher warpage than flat shape without rib by 10 to 41%. the specimens with ribs that are located parallel to flow direction has higher warpage than the specimens with rib that are located perpendicular to flow direction by 11 to 50%. crystalline resins have higher warpage than non-crystalline resins by 22 to 78%. Warpage decreases as packing time increases as injection temperature increases.

In this paper a new defect detection method for flat panel display that does not require any separately prepared reference images and shows robustness against problems with regard to pixel tolerance and nonuniform illumination condition is proposed. In order to perform defect detection under any magnification value of camera, the proposed method automatically obtains the value of pattern interval through an image analysis. Using the information for pattern interval, an advanced PCSR-G method presented in this paper utilizes neighboring patterns as its reference images instead of utilizing any separately prepared reference images. Also this paper proposes a scheme to improve the performance of the conventional PCSR-G method by extracting and applying additional information for pixel tolerance and intensity distribution considering the value of pattern interval. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed method utilizing pixel tolerance and intensity distribution is superior to that of the conventional method. Also, it is proved that the proposed method that is implemented using parallel technique based on GPGPU can be applied to real system.

Most of the plastics products are being manufactured by injection molding. Warpage in injection molded affects the product dimension and it causes assembling problem. In this study, warpages in the injection molded part been studied. Specimens are rectangular flat shapes with and without ribs. Amorphous polymers (PC and ABS) and crystalline polymers (PP and PA66) were used for material. Flat shape with ribs showed higher warpage than flat shape without ribs by 6 to 9%. The specimens with ribs that are located parallel to the flow direction has higher warpage than specimens with ribs that are located perpendicular to the flow direction by 25 to 39%. Crystalline polymers have higher warpage than amorphous polymers by 23 to 67%. Warpage decreases as packing time increases and it increases as injection temperature increases.

The characteristics of voltage drop and THD for parallel operating 11 PCRs (Phase Controlled Rectifiers) are analysed. The PCRs are used to drive high current (1.6 kA ${\sim}$ 3.7 kADC) electromagnetic coils for electromagnets. All the PCRs operate simultaneously in pulsed mode, and the pulse shot occurs every 150 seconds. During the pulse operation the PCR output current ramps up for 4 seconds, and then keeps flat top state for 2 seconds, and finally ramps down for 4 seconds. For the flat top mode a severe voltage drop and distortion appear in the power system because transformers for the PCRs are designed considering pulsed mode operation. It is expected that the analysis method can be applied to improve the system performance including power factor and design of high power pulsed mode operating power supply systems.
