본 논문에서는 인덕션 쿠커의 스위칭 전력반도체에서 발생되는 스위치 손실을 비교 분석한다. Si-기반 전력반도체의 효율 상승이 한계점에 도달함에 따라 고속 스위칭 및 저손실 특성을 지닌 SiC, GaN와 같은 와이드밴드갭 소자를 활용한 고전력밀도 컨버터의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이에 소비자 가전분야의 인덕션쿠커 공진형 하프-브릿지 전력회로의 기존 Si-IGBT를 GaN-FET과 SiC-FET으로 구성하여 스위치 손실모델을 유도하고 이를 통해 세 가지의 전력반도체가 적용된 인덕션 쿠커의 스위치 손실을 비교분석한다. 분석된 손실모델은 PSIM Thermal Module을 통하여 검증한다.

The intermediate range of temperatures($100{\sim}300^{\circ}C$) which can be achieved with CPCs(Compound Parabolic Concentrators) without tracking device provides both economic and thermal advantages for solar collector design. The present paper summarizes critical design considerations for CPC with cylindrical absorber and its optical performance using ray tracing program. Concentration ratios vary as acceptance half angle, ratio of reflector height to aperture width and ratio of reflector area to aperture area. This effects showed that the concentration ratio was increased as acceptance angle but optimum ratio of reflector height to aperture width existed at critical value. As a result of ray tracing, solar ray losses was maximized at acceptance half angle and this problem was solved by increasing absorber tube diameter. The concentrating flux distribution on the absorber surface was uniform but peak flux existed.

Excessive vibration magnitude results in serious damage and economic losses in the turbine and generator system. Therefore, it is of importance to evaluate the accurate dynamic characteristics of the system in advance. In this paper, rotordynamic characteristics of both the shrunk-fit disc and welded drum rotors have been investigated to ensure an excellent running behavior of the system in which low-pressure(LP) turbines of a nuclear power plant were retrofitted to improve thermal efficiency and reliability. Analysis shows that the welded drum rotor has good torsional characteristics rather than the shrunk-fit disc rotor. In addition, verification testing of field test was performed to confirm the retrofit. Test results are good agreement with analysis ones.

We present IR flux density measurements, models of the broadband SED, and results of SED modeling for the Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) 3C 58. We find that the Herschel flux density seems to be slightly lower than suggested by interpolation of previous measurements in nearby wavebands, implying that there may be multiple electron populations in 3C 58. We model the SED using a simple stationary one-zone and a more realistic time-evolving multi-zone scenario. The latter includes variations of flow properties in the PWN (injected energy, magnetic field, and bulk speed), radiative energy losses, adiabatic expansion, and diffusion, similar to previous PWN models. From the modeling, we find that a PWN age of 2900-5400 yrs is preferred and that there may be excess emission at ${\sim}10^{11}Hz$. The latter may imply multiple populations of electrons in the PWN.

본 논문에서는 전기자동차용 단상 양방향 온보드 충전기를 위한 Cycloconverter-type high frequency link 컨버터에 Si-IGBT와 SiC-FET을 적용하여 전력반도체의 전력 손실을 예측하고 비교하고 분석한다. 와이드밴드갭 전력반도체 중 하나인 SiC-FET은 기존 Si기반의 IGBT를 대신하여 사용될 전력반도체로써 각광 받고 있다. 또한, 낮은 온-저항으로 인해 적은 전력손실과 고주파 스위칭을 통한 직류단 필터의 크기감소를 통해 높은 전력밀도를 달성할 수 있다. 이에 Si-IGBT와 SiC-FET을 Cycloconverter-type high frequency link 컨버터에 적용하여 전력손실을 PSIM thermal module을 통해 시뮬레이션하고 비교 분석한다.

As steel is highly sensitive to temperature variations, fire exposure is more destructive in the case of steel structures in comparison to the concrete ones. The performance of an intermediate three-story steel moment frame with 4 spans was studied under the service load, thermal load and post-earthquake fire in this paper. Also, the effects of passive fire-protection materials such as ordinary cement-based and fire-retardant coatings were investigated. To model and analyze the structure; Abaqus software is utilized. In order to apply the earthquake effect, the push-over analysis method is employed. Changes in the stories deflection, endurance time and growth of nonlinear regions due to losses in the steel stiffness and strength, are among the issues considered in this study. As an interesting finding, the beams protected by ordinary cement-based coating could sustain the fire exposure at least for 30 minutes in all cases. The mentioned time is increased by employing a new fire-retardant protection, which could prevent significant loss in the structure resistance against fire, even after 60 minutes of exposure to fire.

This study examined the oxidative polycondensation reaction of 2-[(pyridin-4-yl-) methyleneamino] pyridine-3-ol (2-PMAP) using air $O_2$ and NaOCl oxidants at various temperatures and times in aqueous alkaline and acidic media. Under these reactions, the optimum reaction conditions using air $O_2$ and NaOCl oxidants were determined for 2-PMAP. The number-average molecular weight ($M_n$), weight average molecular weight ($M_w$), and polydispersity index (PDI) values of O-2-PMAP synthesized in aqueous alkaline media were found to be 960, 1230, and $1.281\;g\;mol^{-1}$ using NaOCl, and 1030, 1520, and $1.476\;g\;mol^{-1}$ using air $O_2$, respectively. At the optimum reaction conditions, the yield of O-2-PMAP in aqueous alkaline media was 92.50% and 85.70% for air $O_2$ and NaOCl oxidants, respectively. The yield of O-2-PMAP in aqueous acidic media was 88.5% and 88.0% for NaOCl and air $O_2$ oxidants, respectively. O-2-PMAP was characterized by $^1H-$, $^{13}C$-NMR, FT-IR, UV-vis, SEC, and elemental analysis. TGA-DTA analysis revealed O-2-PMAP and its oligomer metal complex compounds, such as $Co^{+2}$, $Ni^{+2}$, and $Cu^{+2}$, to be stable against thermal decomposition and their weight losses at $1000^{\circ}C$ were found to be 73.0, 58.0, 53.5%, and 50.0%, respectively. In addition, the antimicrobial activities of the monomer and oligomer were tested against E. Coli (ATCC 25922), E. Faecelis (ATCC 29212), P. Auroginasa (ATCC 27853), and S. Aureus (ATCC 25923).

The transport of contaminants and spatial variation in a deep reservoir are certainly governed by the thermal structure of the reservoir. There has been continuous efforts to utilize three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamic and water quality models for supporting reservoir management, but the efforts to validate the models performance using extensive field data were rare. The study was aimed to evaluate a 3D hydrodynamic model, ELCOM, in Daecheong Reservoir for simulating heat fluxes and stratification processes under hydrological years of 2001, 2006, 2008, and to assess the impact of internal wave on the reservoir mixing. The model showed satisfactory performance in simulating the water temperature profiles: the absolute mean errors at R3 (Hoenam) and R4 (Dam) sites were in the range of $1.38{\sim}1.682^{\circ}C$. The evaporative and sensible heat losses through the reservoir surface were maximum during August and January, respectively. The net heat flux ($H_n$) was positive from February to September, while the stratification formed from May and continued until September. Instant vertical mixing was observed in the reservoir during strong wind events at R4, and the model reasonably reproduced the mixing events. A digital low-pass filter and zero crossing method was used to evaluate the potential impact of wind-driven internal wave on the reservoir mixing. The results indicated that most of the wind events occurred in 2001, 2006, 2008 were not enough to develop persistent internal wave and effective mixing in the reservoir. ELCOM is a suitable 3D model for supporting water quality management of the deep and stratified reservoirs.

There have been many studies on the two dimensional thermo-elasto-plastic analysis in welding process, mostly from viewpoint of residual stresses. In this study, the temperature distribution, transient thermal stress, and angular distortion during bead-on-plate gas metal arc welding of rectangular plates were analyzed by using the finite element method. A nonlinear heat transfer analysis was first performed by taking account of the temperature-dependent material properties and convection heat losses on the surface. This was followed by a thermo-elasto-plastic stresses and distortion analysis that incorporates the constrained boundary condition of the two dimensional solution domain to get the three dimensional size effect of the plate. The constrained boundary conditions adopted in this study were the constant displacement condition over the whole two dimensional section for axial movement in the welding direction, and the force boundary condition for rotational movementof the domain around the axis of the welding direction. It could be revealed that the theoretical predictions of the angular distortion have an improved agreement with the experimentally obtained data presented in the previous study.

Dehydroxylation and mullitization of primary and secondary kaolins were investigated in order to compare and understand the differences in thermal behaviours by DTA and TG up to $1,100^{\circ}C$. Chemical analyses and EPMA of the samples revealed nearly ideal unit-cell formulae of kaolins. The weight losses of dickite and halloysite are 14% and 12.5% on the average, respectively. The activation energies of dehydroxylation of kaolin minerals were calculated according to Kissinger's approach which uses various heating rates in DTA to estimate the activation energy of thermal reactions. The activation energies of dehydroxylation of halloysites from Daemoung and Buksam mines are about $163kJmor^{-1}$ (white), $168kJmor^{-1}$ (pink), and $176kJmor^{-1}$ respectively. The activation energies of dickites collected from Sungsan and Ogmae mines are about $166kJmor^{-1}$ and $387kJmor^{-1}$. The asymmetric shape of endothermic peak in DTA, the relative intensities of OH-stretching bands in FTIR spectroscopy and the existence of residual XRD peaks of the samples which were heated at $550^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours indicate that Sungsan dickite may be more disordered than Ogmae dickite. The new phase formed in thermally treated samples in the range of $900^{\circ}C$ to $1,100^{\circ}C$ was identified as mullite by XRD on the basis of disappearing of the characteristic peaks of kaolins and increasing of amorphous background upon heat treatment. On further heating, loss of more water from dehydroxylate resulted in the formation of mullite and the characteristic X-ray diffraction patterns of mullite began to appear at about $900{\sim}1,000^{\circ}C$ in kaolins.
