An experimental investigation has been conducted with the objective of studying the mixing mechanism near the nozzle exit in a tone-excited jet diffusion flame. The fuel jet was pulsed by means of a loudspeaker-driven cavity. The excitation frequencies were chosen for the two cases of the non-resonant and resonant frequency identified as a fuel tube resonance due to acoustic excitation. The effect of tone-excitations on mixing pattern near the nozzle exit and flame was visualized using various techniques, including schlieren photograph and laser light scattering photograph from $TiO_2$ seed particles. In order to clarify the details of the flame feature observed by visualization methods, hotwire measurements have been made. Excitation at the resonant frequency makes strong mixing near the nozzle. In this case, the fuel jet flow in the vicinity of nozzle exit breaks up into disturbed fuel parcels. This phenomena affects greatly the combustion characteristics of the tone excited jet and presumably occurs by flow separation from the wall inside the fuel nozzle. As a result, in the resonant frequency the flame length reduces greatly.

Electrospray is a method of atomizing fluid using high voltage supply and capable of generating continuous flow and coherent size of droplets. Electrical system and properties of fluids has enabled electrospray to have various spray modes. However, its studies have been confined only in Cone jet, which is more stable and easier to manipulate droplets' size than other spraying modes. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate and compare other spraying modes based on experimental parameters and physical properties of fluids. This research paper identified nine different spray modes. It was found out that Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) is proportional to flow rate of fluids and maximum difference among spray modes was 1.7 times. On the other hand, SMD standard deviation had low variations on specific flow rates of fluids. Pulsed jet mode recorded the largest SMD standard deviation, while Spindle recorded the lowest.

본 연구에서는 저주파영역의 가진분무에 대하여 추가적인 내부가진을 수행함으로써 변조분사되는 분무특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 회전식 가진장치를 사용하여 1차 가진을 생성한 후 2차 가진원인 마그네틱 밸브를 사용하여 변조하였다. 변조분무의 FFT결과와 분무패턴의 가시화를 통하여 관찰한 결과, 2차 가진 제어가 있는 변조분사의 경우 1차 가진만 있는 분사보다 분무의 상하 운동 진폭이 작으며 분무 하단류의 침투깊이가 증가하는 경향성이 발견되었다.

The bubble dynamics induced by direct laser heating is experimentally analyzed as a first step to assess the technical feasibility of laser-based ink-jet technology. To understand the interaction between laser light and ink, the absorption spectrum is measured for various ink colors and concentrations. The hydrodynamics of laser-generated bubbles is examined by the laser-flash photography. When an Ar ion laser pulse (wavelength 488 nm) with an output power up to 600 mW is incident on the ink solution through a transparent window, a hemispherical bubble with a diameter up to ${\sim}100{\mu}m$ can be formed with a lifetime in a few tens of microsecond depending on the laser power and the focal-spot size. Parametric study has been performed to reveal the effect of laser pulse width, output power, ink concentration, and color on the bubble dynamics. The results show that the bubble generated by a laser pulse is largely similar to that produced by a thin-film heater. Consequently, the present work demonstrates the feasibility of developing a laser-actuated droplet generation mechanism for applications in ink-jet print heads. Furthermore, the results of this work indicate that the droplet generation frequency is likely to be further increased by optimizing the process parameters.

High speed cutting processes of rigid flexible printed circuit board by making use of high power UV laser with nano-second pulse width have been proposed and investigated experimentally. Also robust laser cutting system has been designed and developed in order to obtain a good cutting quality of rigid and flexible PCB with multi-layers (2-6 layers). Power controller module developed for ourselves is adapted to control the laser output power in the range less than 1%. The systems show the good performance of cutting speed, cutting width and cutting accuracy, respectively. Especially we have confirmed that the short circuit problem due to the carbonized contamination occurred in cross section of multi-layers by thermal effect of high power laser has been improved largely by using multi-pass cutting process with low power and high speed.

We have fabricated solution processed oxide semiconductor active layer for thin film transistors (TFTs). The oxide semiconductor layers were prepared by ink-jet printing the sol-gel precursor solution based on doped-ZnO. Inorganic ZnO-based thin films have drawn significant attention as an active channel layer for TFTs applications alternative to conventional Si-based materials and organic semiconducting materials, due to their wide energy band gap, optical transparency, high mobility, and better stability. However, in spite of such excellent device performances, the fabrication methods of ZnO related oxide active layer involve high cost vacuum processes such as sputtering and pulsed laser deposition. Herein we introduced the ink-jet printing technology to prepare the active layers of oxide semiconductor. Stable sol-gel precursor solutions were obtained by controlling the composition of precursor as well as solvents and stabilizers, and their influences on electrical performance of the transistors were demonstrated by measuring electrical parameters such as off-current, on-current, mobility, and threshold voltage. Microstructure and thermal behavior of the doped ZnO films were investigated by SEM, XRD, and TG/DTA. Furthermore, we studied the influence of the ink-jet printing conditions such as substrate temperature and surface treatment on the microstructure of the ink-jet printed active layers and electrical performance. The mobility value of the device with optimized condition was about 0.1-1.0 $cm^2/Vs$ and the on/off current ratio was about $10^6$. Our investigations demonstrate the feasibility of the ink-jet printed oxide TFTs toward successful application to cost-effective and mass-producible displays.

A pulsed molecular beam source having short pulse duration (typically 70 ${\mu}s)$ and narrow velocity distribution (${\Delta}$v/v=8% for helium) has been costructed utilizing a commercial fuel injector. Beam characteristics of helium and ammonia seeded in helium expansions are accomplished by the use of an electron impact time-or-flight mass spectrometer. The comparisons between experimental data and theoretical calculations show that the proper beam speed is important to predict the evolution of stream temperature and valve shutter function. The decreasing tendency of pulse duration with increasing cluster size leads to the conclusion that the cluster beam property is described as a function of cluster mass and disinct cluster temperature.

This computational study features the transient compressible and inviscid flow analysis on a metallic plasma discharge from the opposing composite electrodes which is subjected to pulsed electric power. The computations have been performed using the flux corrected transport algorithm on the axisymmetric two-dimensional domain of electrode gap and outer space along with the calculation of plasma compositions and thermophysical properties such as plasma electrical conductivity. The mass ablation from aluminum electrode surfaces are modeled with radiative flux from plasma column experiencing intense Joule heating. The computational results shows the highly ionized and highly under-expanded supersonic plasma discharge with strong shock structure of Mach disk and blast wave propagation, which is very similar to muzzle blast or axial plasma jet flows. Also, the geometrical effects of composite electrodes are investigated to compare the amount of mass ablation and penetration depth of plasma discharge.

On-demand ejection of ultra-fine droplets that uses both electrohydrodynamic (EHD) force and mechanical actuation is presented. The liquid meniscus was controlled by a piezoelectric actuator and droplets were ejected by EHD force. Through these effects, it was possible to obtain a high operational jetting frequency of 5kHz with a short delay-time (about 50 us) when compared with existing on-demand EHD jetting methods, such as the pulsating jet mode (3-10 msec) and the pulsed-voltage cone-jet mode(3.6 msec). Also, we obtained ultra-fine droplets at a volume that was at the femto-liter level simultaneously. The jetting characteristics were examined for both hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity of the surface of a capillary.

소형 대기압 플라즈마 소스는 그 형태에 따라 DBD (Dielectric Barrier Discharge)나 Plasma Needle, 혹은 Plasma Jet 등으로 구별되며, 구동 파형의 특성에 따라 DC, RF (Radio Frequency), 혹은 Pulsed 방식 등으로 나뉜다. 또한 코로나 방전도 소형 대기압 플라즈마 장치에서 사용된다. DBD는 1857년 Siemens에 의해 최초로 보고 되었고 산업 분야에서 대규모로 사용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 대향 방전 DBD 대신 유전체 양쪽 면에 전극이 도포된 면방전 형태의 DBD 구조 내부로 He 가스가 흐를 때의 방전에 대한 광학적 진단을 수행하였다. 전극간의 거리와 가스 유속의 변화에 따라 방전 특성이 어떻게 달라지에 대해서 Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES)를 통하여 생성되는 radical 종의 변화를 측정하고 ICCD (intensified charge coupled device) image를 통해 방전이 시간에 따라 어떻게 진행되는지를 진단하였다.
