This study examined the phase changes, nitride precipitation and variation in mechanical properties of STS 304, STS 321 and STS 316L austenitic stainless steels after high temperature gas nitriding (HTGN) at temperature ranges from $1050^{\circ}C\;to\;1150^{\circ}C$. Fine round type of $Cr_2N$ nitrides were observed in the surface layers of 304 and 316L steels, even more in STS 321. Additionally, square type of TiN was found in STS 321 austenitic matrix too. As a result of many precipitates in the surface layer of the STS 321, it was seen $370{\sim}470Hv$ hardness variation depending on the HTGN treatment conditions, and interior region of austenite represented 150Hv. The surface hardness value of STS 304 and STS 316L showed $255{\sim}320Hv$, respectively. The nitrogen content was shown 0.27, 1.7 and 0.4% respectively at the surface layers of the STS 304, STS 321 and STS 316L. After the HTGN it was shown the improvement of corrosion resistance of the STS 321 and STS 316L compared with solution annealed steels in the solution of 1N $H_2SO_4$ whereas the STS 304 was not.

오스테나이트 스테인리스강 304L을 고질소 저압 분위기에서 400~$600^{\circ}C$ 범위내의 온도변수 $50^{\circ}$간격차이에 따라 펄스 직류 플라즈마를 발생시켜 펄스작용 시간비에 따라 5시간씩 질화처리를 실시하였다. 처리온도 $500^{\circ}C$를 전후하여 질화처리층의 상과 조직이 현저히 다르게 형성되었다. $500^{\circ}C$미만 범위에서 저온일수록 펄스작용 시간비가 높을 때 질화층은 일종의 비화학량론적인 질화 스테인리스강으로 형성되었고 박피막을 이루며 균열이 많이 발생했다. 처리온도가 $500^{\circ}C$보다 높을 때는 온도가 높아지거나 펄스작용 시간비가 50s/100s로 높아짐에 따라 질화층은 CrN 및 Fe4N 위주로 구성되어 주상정 조직을 이루며 균일하게 성장하며 무균열층이 된다. $500^{\circ}C$에서는 저온 조직 및 상과 고온 조직 및 상이 혼합된 질화층이 형성되며 취성이 대단히 크다.

The air separation plants in the POSCO's Gwangyang Steel Works require high standard on quality as well as reliability as they have to continuously supply essential utility gases as oxygen, nitrogen and argon. And the plants are in the category of high pressure gas systems by the regulatory guidelines, which signifies that they have to maintain utmost level of safety. As an effort to systematically understand and calculate the risk potentials in the air separation plants, risk assessments have been performed on a phased approach: qualitative and followed by quantitative POSCO has chosen to use hazard and operability study and fault tree analysis to satisfy the requirement. As a result, the risk assessment team has identified number of safety and operability related findings. With importance of each and ever findings calculated, a priority list for what/when to do for them could have been presented on a balance fashion.

A high-temperature superconductor (HTS) journal bearing was studied for loss. Two HTS bearings support the rotor at top and bottom. The rotor weight is 4 kg and the length is about 300 mm. Both the top and bottom bearings have two permanent magnet (PM) rings with an iron pole piece separating them. Each HTS journal bearing is composed of six pieces of superconductor blocks of size 35$\times$25$\times$10 mm. The HTS blocks are encased in a cryochamber through which liquid nitrogen flows. The inner spool of the cryochamber is made from G-10 to reduce eddy current loss, and the rest of the cryochamber is stainless steel. The magnetic field from the PM rings ＜ 10 mT on the stainless part. The rotational drag was measured over the same speed range. Results indicate that the 10 mT design criteria for magnetic field on the stainless part of the cryochamber is too high.

When shooting small arms, the inner surface temperature is heated up to about $700{\sim}1,000^{\circ}C$ by the friction of the bullet and the inner wall of the barrel and the combustion of propellant. High-temperature propellant gas and high-speed movement of the bullet cause corrosion of the inner wall, which is noticeable immediately in front of the chamber. In this study, the mechanical properties of Cr-Mo-V steel, which is the base material, were tested using Taguchi experimental design to find the best nitriding treatment conditions. For the nitriding process, the working time, salt bath temperature, and salt concentration were combined as three conditions and placed in the $L_9(3^4)$, orthogonal array table. The thicknesses of the white layer and the nitrogen diffusion layer were measured after nitriding under each condition in a salt bath furnace. Durability was evaluated by measuring the degree of dispersion through actual shooting because it was difficult to evaluate the mechanical properties of the cylinder inner structure. As a result, it was confirmed that the durability was optimal at $565^{\circ}C$, 1 hour, 0.5%. These optimal conditions were selected by the statistical analysis of the Minitab program(ver.17).

Chromium and chromium nitride were selected as potential barriers to prevent fuel-clad chemical interaction (FCCI) between the cladding and the fuel material. In this study, ferritic/martensitic HT-9 steel and misch metal were used to simulate the reaction between the cladding and fuel fission product, respectively. Radio frequency magnetron sputtering was used to deposit Cr and CrN films onto the cladding, and the gas flow rates of argon and nitrogen were fixed at certain values for each sample to control the deposition rate and the crystal structure of the films. The samples were heated for 24 h at 933 K through the diffusion couple test, and considerable amount of interdiffusion (max. thickness: $550{\mu}m$) occurred at the interface between HT-9 and misch metal when the argon and nitrogen were used individually. The elemental contents of misch metal were detected at the HT-9 through energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy due to the interdiffusion. However, the specimens that were sputtered by mixed gases (Ar and $N_2$) exhibited excellent resistance to FCCI. The thickness of these CrN films were only $4{\mu}m$, but these films effectively prevented the FCCI due to their high adhesion strength (frictional force ${\geq}1,200{\mu}m$) and dense columnar microstructures.

Vacuum heat treatment(indirect heating method) has long exposure time at high temperature and low quenching rate. Contrarily salt bath heat treatment (direct heating method) has short exposure time at high temperature and fast cooling rate. With these different features of processes, mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength and impact strength of products show very different results. In this study, Salt bath heat treated products showed higher tensile strength and impact strength than vacuum heat treated products but hardness was not much different. These lower mechanical properties of vacuum heat treated products are due to differences in heat process and secondary hardening with high temperature tempering process. Consequently, It indicates that salt bath heat treatment is better way than vacuum heat treatment for product to have high mechanical properties.

In this study, the effects of oxide layer formed on the contact parts of TiN coated ball and steel disk in sliding are investigated. Also wear mechanism to from the oxide layer and the characteristics of the oxide layer formation are investigated. AISI 52100 steel ball is used for the substrate of coated ball specimens. Two types of coated ball specimens were prepared by depositing TiN coating with 1 and 4 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in coating thickness. AISI 1045 steel is used for the disk type counter-body. To investigate the effect of oxide layer on the contact parts of the two materials, the tests were performed both in air for forming oxide layer on the contact parts and in nitrogen environment to avoid oxidation. And to study the effects of surface roughness of counter-body, TiN coating thickness and contact load of sliding test on the characteristics of oxide layer formation on counter-body, various tests were carried out. From the results, the friction characteristics between the two materials was predominated by iron oxide layer that formed on wear track on counter-body and this layer caused the high friction. And the formation rate of the oxide layer on wear track increased as the real contact area between the two materials increased as the contact load increased, the TiN coating thickness decreased and the surface of counter-body smoothened.

The Ti-Si-N coating layers were synthesized on SKD 11 steel substrate by a DC reactive magnetron co-sputtering technique with separate Ti and Si targets. The high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses for the coating layers revealed that microstructure of Ti-Si-N layer was nanocomposite, consisting of nano-sized TiN crystallites surrounded by amorphous $Si_3$$N_4$ phase. The highest hardness value of about 39 GPa was obtained at the Si content of ~11at.%, where the microstructure had fine TiN crystallites (about 5nm in size) dispersed uniformly in amorphous matrix. As the Si content in Ti-Si-N films increased, the TiN crystallites became from aligned to randomly oriented microstructure, finer, and fully penetrated by amorphous phase. Free Si appeared in the layers due to the deficit of nitrogen source at higher Si content. Friction coefficient and wear rate of the Ti-Si-N coating layer significantly decreased with increase of relative humidity. The self-lubricating tribe-layers such as $SiO_2$ or (OH)$Si_2$ seemed to play an important role in the wear behavior of Ti-Si-N film against steel.
