Molten steel level information of ladle is very important for process control in steelmaking process. At secondary refining process, measuring lance and snokel have to keep constant thier depth from molten steel surfaces. But, there is much slag on the molten steel surface. Besides, not only the thickness of slag is varied with refining condition, but also molten steel level is largely affected by firebrick errosion. Then, optical measuring method and/or by human eyes cannot detect true molten steel surface, but slag surface. This slag thickness is 300mm at maximum, then huge diameter eddy current sensor will be needed if that type sensor is applied. In addition to, cooling system is necessary because the molten steel and slag temperature is high. This is not practically. To solve this problem, immersion type levelmeter is developed. This sensor is made up from primary and secondary cylindrical coils. High frequency current is applied to primary coil. Electro-motive force from secondary coil is measured, which is varied with molten steel level. This complete set is installed within stainless steel long capsule and attached to top of lance. This sensor is immersed into molten steel bath of ladle or tundish with protection of expendable paper sleeve.

We designed and manufactured a 1.8T high temperature superconducting(HTS) insert coil for a NMR magnet operated at 4.2 K. Suitable HTS superconductor and HTS coil were carefully designed and developed. We have selected multi-filamentary Bi2223 conductor fabricated by American Superconductor Corporation(AMSC). The selected conductor consists of Bi2223 filaments of 55, silver stabilizer and stainless steel reinforcement tapes. Therefore, it shows good hoop strength as well as compression tolerance. The conductor has a tape cross-section of 0.31mm x 4.8mm. the Bi2223 conductor shows large anisotropy of critical current. The critical current of conductor in magnetic field parallel to the flat surface are much higher than that in magnetic field perpendicular. The HTS coil has an inner diameter of 78 mm, an outer diameter of 127 mm and a coil length of 600 mm. In this paper, the detailed design, fabrication and test results on the HTS insert coil are presented.

In this study, we designed a vascular occlusion device based on the principle that slowing blood flow would induce thrombosis. Tungsten, stainless steel and platinum were tested for finding a good embolic metallic coil. The primary coil and the second coil were done with heat treatment or different time. The pitch distance and the shape retention capability of second coil were characterized by SEM. To increase thrombogenicity, we tried to treat different proteins on steel coils: thrombin, gelatin and both gelatin and thrombin. To verify protein materials treated on coils, the surface of coil treated with different proteins were characterized using Laser Raman Spectrophotometer. After observation of embolic coils, the peptides bonds on theirs' surface were found. In order to compare the thrombogenicity of different embolic agents, we measured whole blood clotting time.

The present study was to investigate the heat transfer enhancement effect of coil wire fins in an ice storage system. For the two cases of tubes with internal brine flows, a finned tube with coil wires on its outer surface and a smooth tube, the rates of ice layer were tested and compared for both the icing processes. The coil fins were made of a stainless steel wire with a dia. of 2.0(mm), and the coil had an outer dia. of 10(mm) and a helix angle of 60($^{\circ}$). The experimental results showed that the coil fins could substantially reduce the thermal resistance of the ice layer, and enhance the heat flow rates between the water in the storage tank and the brine. The ice storing time was found to be shortened by 13(%) for the coil fins to get the same amount of ice layer that was built on the smooth tube wall for 10 hours of operation when the same thermal conditions were provided.

This is the first release of an interim report on the development of coating technology of Zn-Mg alloy layers on steel strip by EML-PVD (electromagnetic levitation - physical vapor deposition) process in an air-to-air type continuous PVD pilot plant. It intends to introduce a basic principle of the EML-PVD process together with the high speed PVD pilot plant built in Posco. Due to the agitation effect provided by the high frequency induction coil, simultaneous evaporation of Zn and Mg from a droplet could produce alloy coating layers with Mg content of 6% to 12% depending on the composition of the droplet inside the coil. For its superior corrosion resistance, Zn-Mg alloy coated steel would be a very promising material for automotive, electrical appliances, and construction applications.

본 실험적 연구에서는 수개의 코일과 릴레이 스위치를 활용하여 전자기력 위치를 지속적으로 교란하는 방법이 파괴에너지에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 마이크로 강섬유와 일반 후크 강섬유로 보강된 일반몰탈, 모래의 50 %와 100 %를 스틸슬래그로 치환한 스틸슬래그 몰탈을 제작하고, 전자기에 노출하였다. 전자기력이 유도방식은 기존의 방식인 한 개의 코일을 사용하고 릴레이 스위치 없이 일정한 전자기력을 유도하는 기존의 방법과 이를 상과 하로 두 개로, 상중하 세 개로 분할하고 릴레이 스위치를 두어 지속적으로 변화시키는 방법으로 하였다. 실험결과로부터 획득한 하중-수직변위곡선으로부터 파괴에너지를 계산하고 이를 상호 비교하였다. 실험결과, 동일한 전력량을 사용하더라도 코일을 분리하고 릴레이 스위치를 활용하여 전자기력을 교란하는 방식이 파괴에너지를 증가시키는데 효과적인 것으로 확인되었다.

Coil spring steels from the automobile suspension part after field exposure for 10 years and those after anti-corrosion validation test in proving ground of 5,000 ~ 10,000 km were examined for corrosion damages. Partial loss of paint, accumulation of corrosion product, and cracking of paint and superficial material were observed. The surface and subsurface region of spring steels had compressive residual stress and high hardness by shot peening. The surface hardness values of the specimens were 620 ~ 670 Hv. They were 60 ~ 80 Hv higher than those of the samples taken from the middle part of the spring. The maximum compressive stress was -916 ~ -1208 MPa measured at depth of about $100{\mu}m$. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that the resistances of charge transfer and the paint layer of the spring steels ranged from several tens to millions ${\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$. The resistance of the field samples was much higher than that of the proving ground samples used in this study, implying that the proving ground test condition would be more corrosive than the field environment.

Due to the difficulties associated with the supply of steel plates, hot rolled coil (Steel grade: SM490A) is considered fur structural materials in replace of the existing SWS50A-M1. However, it is found that SM490A exhibits a significant anisotropy in terms of impact energy with respect to transverse and longitudinal directions. In this study, an experimental investigation is carried out to examine the relationship between the anisotropy in impact values and the fatigue strengths of SM490A with respect to the rolling direction of test specimens. All test specimens failed around 1,500,000 cycles regardless of the test specimen direction. Therefore, it is found that the anisotropy in impact energy is not related to the fatigue strength of the materials considered in this study. However, the transverse direction specimen showed more rapid brittle fracture mode compared to that of longitudinal direction specimen, and this appears to be related to the lower impact values in transverse direction.

The surface inspection of a steel billet is a common practice in the steel manufacturing process prior to hot rolling to produce steel wire for tire cord. This billet surface inspection is an important process because flaws on the surface may cause major failures during the product manufacturing phase. This paper presents a computer simulation based on a finite element method for a magnetic flaw detector with a function of the current intensity, the number of coil turns, and the billet proceeding speed during the production phase based on the typical condition of conventional apparatus. Based on the simulation result, the magnitude of the electromagnetic field on the surface diminished with distance from the electromagnet. In addition, the increased current intensity and the increased number of coil turns actually induced a stronger electromagnetic field on the billet surface. On the other hand, the proceeding speed of a billet in its production line had no significant effects. The result in this study may assist to reduce trial and error and to minimize the opportunity costs during the optimization process by applying the findings of this study into the operation condition in the steel billet production line.

C-Hook is a kind of conveyer system for transporting steel coil in POSCO. To detect the current position and the trajectory of steel coils in a plant, C-Hooks are tracked by an inspection system based on PLC. The inspection system detects transit of C-Hooks by monitoring a physical contact between steel bars on a C-Hook and the inspection sensors. However, this system is not reliable because of the abrasion, damage and aging. Moreover, the number of distinguishable C-Hooks is limited by the number of combination of steel bars on a C-Hook. It means that more steel bars should be installed for distinguishing the more C-Hooks. Therefore, the conventional system is difficult and expensive to maintain. To overcome these problems, we propose a C-Hook identification system that uses RFID which is a non-contact type identification system, and evaluate its performance and applicability from a new monitoring program that operates along with the conventional system in the real environment of POSCO.
