In the developed NMR hyperpolarization techniques, Parahydrogen-Induced Polarization (PHIP) technique is widely utilized to overcome the low sensitivity of the NMR/MRI. Parahydrogen generator is essential to produce high spin order of parahydrogen molecule. Commercial parahydrogen generator is well developed with user-friendly systems. However, it has drawbacks of long preparation time (~ 2h including cooling down time of 1h) and high cost (~ 200 million won) for the commercial setup. We designed a simple and portable parahydrogen generating system with low cost (~ 2 million won), which produce polarization in less than 1 min. With the designed parahydrogen generator, we successfully performed the PHIP with Wilkinson's catalyst on styrene. This study will broaden the parahydrogen based polarization transfer study on many researchers by providing the simple portable and low cost parahydrogen generator.

To compare the stationary dental X-ray generator and the portable dental X-ray generator and to understand spatial radiation dose depended on locations by measuring spatial radiation dose of the portable dental X-ray generator. The researchers used an Ionization chamber to measure spatial radiation dose which was generated while applying X-ray radiation to real bone skull phantom with both portable and stationary dental X-ray generator. There were 4 measurement locations which were immediate anterior, right, left and posterior. Distance of measurement was 50 cm in every location and the recorded result is an average of two applications of X-ray radiation to the maxillary molar area under the condition of 70 kVp, 3 mA, 0.1 sec. Average spatial radiation dose of portable X-ray generator was $37.51{\mu}Sv$, much higher than that of stationary X-ray generator which was $10.77{\mu}Sv$ (p<0.001). The result of the spatial radiation dose of the portable X-ray generator showed a huge difference depending on types of units which varied from $17.77{\mu}Sv$ to $68.90{\mu}Sv$ (p<0.05), also depending on the measurement location, immediate anterior resulted in the highest radiation dose of $54.14{\mu}Sv$ and immediate right was the lowest of $13.60{\mu}Sv$. Immediate left and posterior, however, resulted in similar radiation dose which were $42.12{\mu}Sv$, $40.18{\mu}Sv$ (p<0.01). With this result, we claim that usage of portable dental X-ray generator should be restricted to patients who can't move and exposure to radiation should be minimized by wearing lead-apron.

This paper suggests a nonlinear pressure consideration scheme through an unsteady pipe network analyzer for leakage detection with a portable pressure wave generator. In order to evaluate the performance of a proposal scheme, linear input pattern has been simulated and experiments had been carried out under both no leakage and one leakage conditions in a reservoir-pipeline-valve system. This method using portable pressure wave generator showed that a leakage can be detected from a reflection where a leakage is originated through time domain analysis. Meaningful similarity in pressure response between nonlinear input pattern and experimental results were found both no leakage and a leakage conditions.

In this paper, design and performance analysis of robust and inexpensive permanent magnet-assisted synchronous reluctance generators (PMa-SynRG) for tactical and commercial generator sets is studied. More specifically, the optimal design approach is investigated for minimizing volume and maximizing performance for the portable generator. In order to find optimized PMa-SynRG, stator winding configurations and rotor structures are analyzed using the lumped parameter model (LPM). After comparisons of stator windings and rotor structure by LPM, the selected stator winding and rotor structure are optimized using a differential evolution strategy (DES). Finally, output performances are verified by finite element analysis (FEA) and experimental tests. This design process is developed for the optimized design of PMa-SynRG to achieve minimum magnet and machine volume as well as maximum efficiency simultaneously.

The micro turbo generator is new portable power source based on the Brayton cycle, which consists of a compressor, a turbine, a generator, and a combustion chamber. In this paper, the thermodynamic analysis was performed to find the required condition for hundreds watts power in the micro turbo generator, and also the rotordynamic stability was predicted using the numerical analysis of air foil bearings which support the micro turbo generator. By experimental works, the rotordynamic stability of the micro turbo generator with foil bearings was verified. While various transient dynamic situation, the micro turbo generator had stable performances. From the result, it was demonstrated that air foil bearings could be adapted to the micro turbo generator as a excellent lubrication element.

GPS type portable-alarm-system is composed of satellite receiving equipment, signal transmission equipment, etc. Time errors occur because of the processing methods of the satellite receiving equipment and signal generator, the positional error of GPS itself, etc. With the recent rise of train speed, it becomes very important to secure the stability of portable-alarm-system from time errors, The present study estimated errors caused by the structure of portable-alarm-system, GPS errors. etc., and verified them. In addition, it examined the effects of such errors on portable-alarm-system according to train speed.

This paper presents a compact and portable high-voltage generator based on magnetic-core Tesla transformer for driving an UWB high power electromagnetic source. In order to optimize the performance of the high-voltage generator, a novel open-loop cylindrical magnetic-core adopting the quad-division lamination structure is proposed and manufactured. The designed high-voltage generator using the proposed magnetic core has a battery-powered operation and compact size of $280mm{\times}150mm$ in length and diameter, respectively. The high-voltage generator can produce a voltage pulse waveform with peak amplitude of 450 kV, a rise time of 1.5 ns, and pulse duration of 2.5 ns at the 800 V input voltage.

This paper deals with an design of axial flux electric machine which is a key element for a compact size in a portable and manual generator system. It is expected that the generator system with an axial flux electric machine is more light and has higher efficiency than other types of generator systems. And it is used the soft magnetic composite core instead of silicon steel core in the axial flux electric machine for more compact size. The weight and efficiency of the generator system are the main keys to select the value of design variables. In this paper, the overall design process to meet the design goals, and the design results are presented with experiment results.
