This paper presents an improvement of field uniformity in a reverberation chamber with QRDs(Quadratic Residue Diffuser) and also shows the optimal dimension of the QRDs. The QRD is designed for $1{\sim}3\;GHz$ frequency band and the FDTD(finite-Difference Time-Domain) method is used to analyze the field characteristics. At 2 GHz, the standard deviation of test volume in the reverberation chamber is the smallest when the QRD has $30{\sim}60\;%$ coverage of one side of the reverberation chamber and the field uniformity is worsened when the coverage of the QRD is either below 20 % or above 70 % of the area of the side wall. Particularly, the standard deviation of test volume in the reverberation chamber with 30 % coverage of QRD is improved by 1.53 dB compared to that of the reference chamber with no QRDs.

This paper presents an improved field uniformity in a reverberation chamber, that can be alternatively used for the analysis and the measurement of electromagnetic interference and immunity, with a designed CRD(Cubical Residue Diffuser) that have various dimensions. The Schroeder type CRD is designed for $1\sim3$ GHz band and the FDTD(Finite Difference Time Domain) method is used to analyze the field characteristics. At 2 GHz, the standard deviation of test volume in the reverberation chamber is the smallest and has a good field distribution with a CRD of $40\sim80%$ dimension of one side of the reverberation chamber. The Electric field uniformity gets worse when the dimension of a CRD is either below 40 % or above 80 % of the side wall. The result shows that the standard deviation of the test volume in the reverberation chamber with a CRD of 44 % dimension is improved by 1 dB compared with that of the reverberation chamber with a CRD of 100 % dimension.

Purpose: Conventional pinhole scintigraphy offers a high resolution and generally use for thyroid scan or bone scintigraphy. the aim of this study is to evaluate performance of each aperture according to the diameter size. Materials and Methods: In this study 2 mm, 4 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm diameter pinhole collimators were mounted on Siemens E.CAM systems. In order to evaluate performance evaluation of each aperture, we acquired projection image by using SPECT for evaluating FWHM, resolution test and static image for evaluating thyroid phantom test. Results: As a result of FWHM showed 2.2 mm FWHM, 3.2 mm FWHM, 5.4 mm FWHM, 7.5 mm FWHM per each aperture in the resolution test. SNR, uniformity, contrast were acquired result from thyroid phantom test comparing general image and delayed image. as a result of SNR showed 6.55, 8.47, 6.2, 5.23 in case of general image and 5.25, 5.01, 5.38, 5.82 in case of delayed image per each aperture. as a result of uniformity showed 0.152, 0.118, 0.161, 0.19 in case of general image and 0.19, 0.199, 0.185, 0.171 in case of delayed image per each aperture. as a result of contrast showed 1.31, 1.19, 1.15, 1.01 in case of general image and 1.09, 1.08, 1.04, 1 in case of delayed image per each aperture. Conclusion: Resolution and sensitivity were heavily influenced by aperture size. and also we found advantage of delayed image as a result of thyroid phantom test.

In this work, we evaluated the characteristics of flow field and uniformity of the nose-only exposure chambers for the inhalation toxicity test. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling was carried out to demonstrate uniformity of the nose-only exposure chambers. Because it is very important in the inhalation toxicity experiments that test materials are distributed uniformly to each holder of the chamber. The test was done with these 3 types of chamber with different form to develop inhalation toxicity evaluation system, easy-to-operate system among exposure chamber used for evaluating inhalation toxicity of environmental chemical mixtures. Through CFD interpretation, nose-only exposure chamber was made with the selection of the optimal conditions. For its evaluation, one type of fragrance was selected and measured particle size distribution of each port. The gene becoming luminous to green fluorescence was combined with GPT-SPE, a type of tGFP vector, to be inhaled to the mouse. Based on this, luminous intensity was checked. As a result, total particle number concentration of each port had average value of $3.17{\times}10^6{\sharp}/cm^3$ and range of the highest and lowest concentration value was approximately ${\pm}4.8%$. Autopsy of lung tissues of mouse showed that it had clearly better delivery of gene compared to the control group.

This paper presents the characteristics of electromagnetic field uniformity in a reverberation chamber with flat diffusers composed of multiple dielectric materials that can be used as an alternative facility for the analysis, test and evaluation of electromagnetic interference and immunity. The field characteristics and the size of the test volume inside the reverberation chamber with the new diffuser of multiple dielectric materials are simulated and analyzed at $2.5{\sim}3$ GHz band. The FDTD method is used to analyze the field characteristics. The field uniformity, polarization characteristics and tolerance are improved by the new diffuser with smaller physical size. The reverberation chamber with flat diffusers composed of multiple dielectric materials shows better electromagnetic performance and larger test volume than normal chamber.

This paper describes the evaluation of long duration current impulse withstand characteristics of ZnO blocks for high voltage surge arresters. Four ZnO varistors were manufactured with the general ceramic production method and three abroad varistors were also prepared to be compared. All varistors exhibited high density, which was in the range of $5.42{\sim}5.49g/cm^3$. In the electrical properties, the reference voltage of all samples was in the range of 5.11~5.72kV and the residual voltage was in the range of 8.314~9.305kV. In the long duration current impulse withstand test, sample 2 and 3 failed at the 2nd and 4th shot of series impulse currents, respectively, but the rest survived 18 shots during the test. Before and after this test, the variation ratio of the residual voltage of samples survived were below 1.7%, which were in the acceptance range of 5%.

In this paper, we reduce 'over and under deviation' and 'over and under testing' which have a cause of uncertainty in electromagnetic radiated immunity test. We analyze continued measurement method of field uniformity and propose new estimate method having the minimum uncertainty condition. We test comparison in 4 anechoic chambers and analyze FDI(Field Deviation Index) which is the minimum deviation excess 6 dB on fields. We obtain that the proposed test method improve 1.193 dB than domestic standard(KN 61000-4-3) and 0.017 dB than international standard (IEC61000-4-3) in every frequency. In the test result 'over and under testing point' have 926 point at every field area and have 118 point at center uniform area. These result know that proposed measurement method have 10 point less at every field area and 9 point less at center uniform area than continued measurement method. The proposed test method have few point more than continued measurement method. Therefore, we confirmed that the proposed test method have the minimum uncertainty in electromagnetic radiated immunity test.

For the RIV characteristics test of power apparatus, an indoor measuring system of radio influence voltage was set up and by means of this measuring unit SIV characteristics on the 7$^{1}$2/" pin-type domestic insulators were examined. According to the test data, RIV values of all the test pieces exceeded the maximum permissible level at 10kV applied voltage. The electrical resistivity of domestic semi-conductive glaze as good as importedone but un-uniformity of coating is turned out to be a main cause of failure.lure.
