A heat pipe residual heat removal system is proposed to be incorporated into the reactor driven subcritical (RDS) facility, which has been proposed by MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory for testing and demonstrating the Fluoride-salt-cooled High-temperature Reactor (FHR). It aims to reduce the risk of the system operation after the shutdown of the facility. One of the main components of the system is an air-cooled heat pipe heat exchanger. The alkali-metal high-temperature heat pipe was designed to meet the operation temperature and residual heat removal requirement of the facility. The heat pipe model developed in the previous work was adopted to simulate the designed heat pipe and assess the heat transport capability. 3D numerical simulation of the subcritical facility active zone was performed by the commercial CFD software STAR CCM + to investigate the operation characteristics of this proposed system. The thermal resistance network of the heat pipe was built and incorporated into the CFD model. The nominal condition, partial loss of air flow accident and partial heat pipe failure accident were simulated and analyzed. The results show that the residual heat removal system can provide sufficient cooling of the subcritical facility with a remarkable safety margin. The heat pipe can work under the recommended operation temperature range and the heat flux is below all thermal limits. The facility peak temperature is also lower than the safety limits.

A conceptual study about the angle information based orbit determination technique for a geostationary satellite was performed. With an assumption that the simultaneous observing of the earth and nearby stars is possible, we confirmed that the view angles between the earth and stars can be use as inputs for orbit determination process. By the MATLAB simulation with least square method, the convergence is confirmed. This conceptual study was performed with the COMS for instance. This technique will be able to use as a back-up of ground station's orbit determination or a part of autonomous satellite operation.

by three-dimensional finite element method. The guide roll is an intermediately supported trans-axle miler, so called I-STAR roll, which was designed by VAI. The guide roll has been used in POSCO since 1998. Though the number of stowage in casting has been apparently decreased since thef it has occasionally been failed during operation. The simulations were carried out to find out the status of stress and deformation as well as improvement of the guide roll. The thermal effect is much more dominant than ferro-static pressure or others in stress and deformation of the guide roll. The material of the guide roll is SCM440.

It is well known that for a Krull domain R, the divisor class group of R is a torsion group if and only if every subintersection of R is a ring of quotients. Thus a natural question is that under what conditions, for a non-Krull domain R, every (t-)subintersection (resp., t-linked overring) of R is a ring of quotients or every (t-)subintersection (resp., t-linked overring) of R is at. To address this question, we introduce the notions of *-compact packedness and *-coprime packedness of (an ideal of) an integral domain R for a star operation * of finite character, mainly t or w. We also investigate the t-theoretic analogues of related results in the literature.

Initialization problem is defined for indoor mobile robot as a whole process from arrival to normal operation in a new environment. The unstructured environment make the process much more difficult compared to industrial robot in structured environments. We propose a simple and efficient initialization process based on artificial stars on ceiling. Important task points and paths connecting task points are defined based on the corresponding artificial stars. This approach can be used for all kinds of indoor mobile robots with landmarks used for indoor localization.

Let D be an integral domain with quotient field K, $\bar{D}$ denote the integral closure of D in K and * be a star-operation on D. In this paper, we study the *-Nagata ring of AP*MDs. More precisely, we show that D is an AP*MD and $D[X]{\subseteq}\bar{D}[X]$ is a root extension if and only if the *-Nagata ring $D[X]_{N_*}$ is an AB-domain, if and only if $D[X]_{N_*}$ is an AP-domain. We also prove that D is a P*MD if and only if D is an integrally closed AP*MD, if and only if D is a root closed AP*MD.

A new current source inverter (CSl) with dc-side commutation and load-side energy recovery circuit is proposed with analysis and explanation of the circuit operation. Proposed inverter overcomes the most drawbacks of the conventional CSI's - high device voltage stress, low operating frequency range, large commutation capacitance, etc. - by employing simultaneous recovery and commutation concept. The new CSI employs only one commutation capacitor and it can be built with considerably low cost. The commutation energies are temporarily stored into a large dc capacitor and recovered to the load side, thus the device voltage stress is low and the efficiency is high in the proposed inverter. Computer simulation results are given at the steady state, and a guideline determining the commutation circuit is given.

A study of the operation of surface and buried mode PMOSFET's is condusted. Using device with different channel length and channel implant dosage, threshold voltage lowering, transcon-diuctance and subthreshold characteristics of surface mode PMOFET are compared with those of buried mode MPOSFET. From the results, the surface channel device were more resistant to short channel effect than the buried channel device.

In this paper existing buildings, not a new buildings and house for living people not just a displaying and a viewing, created by the imagine effect or virtual simulation was applied various Active and Passive elements. After constructing zero-energy houses, through default case happened during operation period it is described problems and solutions about field part, work classification, installation by Location part, and Installation equipment part. Since then, to take advantage of this thesis, it's the purpose of this paper using as the baseline data for building a zero-energy house in another similar case.

Let D be an integral domain, Spec(D) the set of prime ideals of D, and X a subspace of the Zariski topology on Spec(D). We show that X is compact if and only if given any ideal I of D with $I{\nsubseteq}P$ for all $P{\in}X$, there exists a finitely generated idea $J{\subseteq}I$ such that $J{\nsubseteq}P$ for all $P{\in}X$. We also prove that if D = ${\cap}_{P{\in}X}D_P$ and if * is the star-operation on D induced by X, then X is compact if and only if * $_f$-Max(D) ${\subseteq}$X. As a corollary, we have that t-Max(D) is compact and that ${\mathcal{P}}$(D) = {P${\in}$ Spec(D)$|$P is minimal over (a : b) for some a, b${\in}$D} is compact if and only if t-Max(D) ${\subseteq}\;{\mathcal{P}}$(D).
