Ready-mixed concrete is unconsolidated concrete typically transported to construction sites by using mixer trucks. A proper rotation of concrete is necessary to prevent its solidification in mixer trucks during transport: in accordance with the manufacturing method and quality inspection prescribed in KSF4009, this movement is maintained after the manufacturing of concrete in professional production plants and the addition of water, solid materials, and admixtures. Unfortunately, mixer truck parts wear out over long periods of time. In order to improve the wear resistance of the main part of mixer trucks, we used a steel plate with good wear resistance or partially added a reinforcement plate. In this study, we first tested the properties of concrete (as required for the DEM), and then carried out mixing and discharge simulations to define the actual operating conditions of mixer trucks. For each condition, we calculated the amount and location of wear. The reliability of our results was finally verified by comparing them with the measurement values. Overall, this study provided basic data for an optimal design of mixer trucks: one that would reduce the vehicles' weight and production costs.

120∼180 GHz 대역의 고정 튜닝방식을 사용한 SIS(Superconductor-Insulator-Superconductor) 접합 믹서를 개발 하였다. 이 믹서는 노베야마 전파천문대에서 제작된 6개 직렬 연결 Nb/Al-A1$_2$O$_3$/Nb SIS 접합 소자를 사용하였으며 석영유리 기판에 제작된 이 SIS 칩은 전 주파수 대역에서 입력신호 결합을 향상시키기 위해 half-height 도파관의 중심에 놓여 있다. 본 논문에서 개발된 SIS 믹서는 기계적인 튜닝 장치를 사용하지 않으며 RF 신호와 LO 전력은 냉각된 십자형 방향성 결합기를 통해서 믹서에 공급된다. 또한 IF 신호 손실을 줄이기 위해 SIS 믹서의 IF 출력 임피던스를 IF 증폭단의 50 $\Omega$ 입력 임피던스에 정합 시켰다. SIS 수신기의 측정된 DSB 잡음온도는 120∼180 GHz 대역에서 32∼131 K이며 본 논문에서 개발된 SIS 믹서는 대덕전파천문대의 14 m 전파망원경에 설치되어 전파천문 관측에 사용되고 있다.

본 연구에서는 라인믹서 내의 압력손실과 혼화성능에 대한 혼합요소의 영향을 해석하였다. 기체와 액체가 혼합된 고농도 오존수 장치는 단체급식시설의 살균 및 소독, 양식장의 수질관리 등 다양한 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 그러나 기존에 사용되는 장치는 가압방식을 사용하여 부피가 매우 크다. 최근에는 기후 변화로 강수량이 감소하여 지하수 및 지표수의 오염으로 음용수의 살균은 매우 중요하다. 따라서 기존의 장치와 대비하여 작은 공간을 사용하면서도 정수기능을 갖는 라인믹서형 기체-액체 혼합장치의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 라인믹서 장치 내에 삽입한 혼합요소인 static mixer의 개수, 오리피스의 형태와 개수, 오리피스에 부착된 베인의 모양에 따른 유입유체의 혼화상태와 유동특성을 전산유체역학 모사를 통해 해석하고 혼화상태에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 곡면의 베인을 부착한 오리피스를 라인믹서에 사용한 경우 static mixer를 사용한 경우와 비교하여 비슷한 혼화정도를 나타내면서 압력손실양은 50% 이상 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a direct-conversion I/Q up-mixer block, which supports $3{\sim}5$ GHz ultra-wideband(UWB) applications. It consists of a VI converter, a double-balanced mixer, a RF amplifier, and a differential-to-single signal converter. To achieve wideband characteristics over $3{\sim}5$ GHz frequency range, the double-balanced mixer adopts a shunt-peaking load. The proposed RF amplifier can suppress unwanted common-mode input signals with high linearity. The proposed direct-conversion I/Q up-mixer block is implemented using $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The measured results for three channels show a power gain of $-2{\sim}-9$ dB with a gain flatness of 1dB, a maximum output power level of $-7{\sim}-14.5$ dBm, and a output return loss of more than - 8.8 dB. The current consumption of the fabricated chip is 25.2 mA from a 1.8 V power supply.

In this study, shape optimization of micro-static mixer with a cantilever beam was accomplished for mixing the mixing efficiency by using successive response surface approximations. Variables were chosen as the length of cantilever beam and the angle between horizontal and the cantilever beam. Sequential approximate optimization method was used to deal with both highly nonlinear and non-smooth characteristics of flow field in a micro-static mixer. Shape optimization problem of a micro-static mixer can be divided into a series of simple subproblems. Approximation to solve the subproblems was performed by response surface approximation, which does not require the sensitivity analysis. To verify the reliability of approximated objective function and the accuracy of it, ANOVA analysis and variables selection method were implemented, respectively. It was verified that successive response surface approximation worked very well and the mixing efficiency was improved very much comparing with the initial shape of a micro-static mixer.

One of the obstructing factors against managing dairy fm has been heavy labor requirement for feeding dairy cows. A Power-tiller TMF mixer was developed to reduce the cost and to provide economic benefit. The TMF mixer was desisted by the feeding capacity of 20∼30 heads at a batch with various functioning systems of auger type mixer, delivery conveyer, weighing console, pipe heater type heating system, power transmission train and mounting trailer. According to the study resulted, it showed that 1,200rpm, 1,600rpm, 2,000rpm and 2,300rpm were 6ps. Bps, lops and 12ps respectively. and that reduced shaft output by 15%. On the fodder mixer attached powertiller, initial output was necessary large torque. And the heating system was maintaining uniform temperature 60$^{\circ}C$ relatively.

A GaAs MMIC composed of VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) and mixer for PCS receiver has been developed using 1.mu.m ion implanted GaAs MESFET process. The VCO consists of a colpitts-type oscillator with a dielectric resonator and the circuit configuration of the mixer is a dual-gate type with an asymmetric combination of LO and RF FETs for the improvement of intermodulation characteristics. The common-source self-biasing is used in all circuits including a buffer amplifier and mixer, achieving a single power supply (3V) operation. The total power dissipation is 78mW. The VCO chip shows a phase noise of-99 dBc/Hz at 100KHz offset. The combined VCO/mixer chip shows a flat conversion gain of 2dB, the frequency-tuning factor of 80MHz/volts in the varacter bias ranging from 0.5V to 0.5V , and output IP3 of dBm at varactor bias of 0V. The fabricated chip size is 2.5mm X 1.4mm.

In this paper, a sub-harmonic dual-gate FET mixer for IMT-2000 base-station was designed by using single-gate FET cascode structure and driven by the second order harmonic component of LO signal. The dual-gate FET mixer has the characteristic of high conversion gain and good isolation between ports. Sub-harmonic mixing is frequently used to extend RF bandwidth for fixed LO frequency or to make LO frequency lower. Furthermore, the LO-to-RF isolation characteristic of a sub-harmonic mixer is better than that of a fundamental mixer because the frequency separation between the RE and LO frequency is large. As RF power is -30dBm and LO power is 0dBm, the designed mixer shows the -47.17dBm LO-to-RF leakage power level, 10dB conversion gain, -0.5dBm OIP3, -10.5dBm IIP3 and -1dBm 1dB gain compression point.

In this work a numerical study to find the characteristics of the internal flow and mixing process has been conducted in a static mixer used in the system of catalytic combustor of the fuel cell power plant. After introducing the model description and final governing equations the present numerical approach is applied to the analysis of static mixer, which may have one or more helical elements inside the circular tube by changing such various parameters as incoming mass flow rates and the number of helical elements. The results show that although the static mixer is efficient in mixing fuel and air, more optimization processes are required to achieve the appropriate mixing characteristics in front of the honeycomb type catalytic combustor used in the MCFC power plant
