Since LPG (Liquefied petroleum gas) fuel supply system has an advantage of low emission characteristics, many studies have been conducted. In spite of the advantage of LPG supply system, a higher vapor pressure and lower viscosity than diesel or gasoline fuel may cause unstable running of fuel pump by the deterioration in lubrication performance and chemical reaction with rubber parts than that of diesel and gasoline fuel. Therefore its physical properties can cause the deterioration of durability. In this research, we developed an external type LPG pump which has the advantage of the price competitiveness and the convenient maintenance for LPLi system. The experiments were carried out in order to assess characteristics of the external type fuel pump at different fuel composition and temperature. As a result, there aren't any differences between internal and external type pump performance. It is observed that the same level of efficiency was maintained for both pumps as flow rate was increased with higher fuel temperature and more contents of propane in the fuel. And the pressure difference in LPLi system is maintained at constant with the various fuel compositions and temperatures due to their own characteristics of fuel supply system.

마그네트론 스퍼터링은 그 단순한 구조로 인하여 신뢰성과 확장성이 높은 기술이다, 이로 인해 DLC, ITO 등의 산업 분야에서 많이 사용하는 박막 공정 기술이다. 하지만 인듐과 같은 희토류 금속의 가격이 최근 상승함에 따라 나타난 낮은 타겟 효율성의 문제와 낮은 파워 밀도로 인한 기판의 추가적인 bias 추가에 따른 비용상승, 그리고 reactive 스퍼터링 시 낮은 증착률 등의 문제점들 또한 존재한다. 이러한 단점들을 해결하기 위해 많은 연구들이 이루어 졌으며, 높은 파워 밀도를 위해 High power Impulse Plasma Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) 기술과 타겟 사용률을 높이기 위한 High Target Utilization Sputtering (HITUS) 등의 기술 등이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 직류 전원을 사용한 High density Plasma Sputtering System (HIPASS)이라 명하는 고밀도 원거리 플라즈마 소스를 이용한 스퍼터링 이용해 증착한 박막의 특성을 연구 하였다. Hollow cathode discharge에서 발생한 고밀도 플라즈마가 외부 유도 자장 코일에 의하여 타겟 표면까지 도달하게 되며, 스퍼터링 타겟의 고전압 bias에 의해 플라즈마 이온들이 가속이 이루어져 스퍼터링 공정이 이루어 지게 된다. 본 연구의 공정에서 타겟 사용 효율은 최대 90%까지 이며, 원거리 플라즈마 소스에서의 이온으로 스퍼터링을 실시함으로 인해 스퍼터링 전압과 전류의 독립적인 조절이 가능 하다. 본 연구에서 HIPASS을 이용하여 기판에 추가적인 전압 인가 없이 Ti 타겟과 아르곤/질소 혼합가스를 사용하여 TiN 박막을 증착 하였다. TiN의 증착률은 약 44 nm/min였으며, 이 박막의 XRD 분석 결과 TiN (111), (200), (220) 면들이 관찰이 되었다. 높은 스퍼터링 입자 에너지에서 증착 된 TiN 박막에서 우선적으로 나타나는(200)과 (220) 면들이, 본 실험에서는 기판에 추가적인 전압인가 없이도 우선방위 성장을 보였다. 이 박막의 micro-hardness 측정 결과 약 34.7 GPa이며, 이는 UBM 이나 HIPIMS에서 보여주는 결과에 준하거나 그 이상의 수치이다. 이와 같은 결과는 본 연구에서 사용한 HIPASS 증착 공정이 높은 스퍼터링 입자 에너지를 가지기에 고밀도의 TiN 박막이 증착 된 결과로 볼 수 있다.

This paper dealt with the design and implementation of an expert system to monitor and diagnose the lightning arresters in GIS substations. The expert system consists of a data acquisition module(DAM) based on microprocessor and diagnostic algorithms. The DAM measures and analyzes several parameters necessary for the arrester diagnosis such as system voltages, leakage current components, and temperatures. Also, it includes an intelligent surge counter which can record the date and tin, the polarity, and the amplitude of surge currents. All the data acquired is transmitted to a remote computer by a low rate wireless network specified in IEEE 802.15.4 to avoid electromagnetic intereference under high voltage and large current environments. The decision-making for the arrester diagnosis completes with a Java Expert System Shell(JESS) which is composed of a knowledge base, an inference engine and a graphic user interface(GUI).

열전재료는 열과 전기에너지의 상호 변환이 가능한 재료로 이를 이용한 응용제품의 개발이 크게 주목을 받고 있으며, 특히 $Bi_2Te_3$계 합금의 경우 상온에서 가장 우수한 성능지수를 가지는 재료로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 기존의 $Bi_2Te_3$계 합금은 일방향응고법으로 제조되어 많은 시간과 비용을 필요로 하고, 특히 C축의 Van der Waals 결합으로 인해 기계적 강도가 약하다는 단점이 있었다. 최근 분말야금법을 이용하여 기계적강도를 높이고, 격자산란에 의한 열전도도의 감소로 성능지수를 높일수 있는 방법들이 제시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 급속응고공정인 가스분무법을 이용하여 n-type의 $95%Bi_2Te_3-5%Bi_2Se_3$분말을 제조하였고, 이 재료의 경우 성형조건에 따라 조직이 쉽게 변하기 때문에 이를 제어하기 위해 단시간동안 고압으로 성형가능한 자기펄스압축성형법(Magnetic Pulsed Compaction)을 이용하여 성형체를 제조하였다. 제조된 성형체는 밀도를 증가시키고 결정립성장을 억제시킬수 있는 방전플라즈마소결법(Spark Plasma Sintering)을 이용하여 소결체로 제조되었으며, 각각의 공정이 열전성능에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. OM (Optical Microscope) 및 SEM (Scaning Electric Microscope)을 이용하여 미세구조를 관찰하였고 XRD (X-Ray Diffraction)를 이용하여 상의 변화를 분석하였으며, 상온에서 경도를 측정함으로서 공정조건에 따른 기계적강도를 비교하였다. Seebeck계수는 시편의 양단에 온도차를 주어 발생하는 기전압을 측정하여 계산하였고, 전기비저항은 4point probe방법으로 측정하였다. 전하이동도 및 전하농도는 Hall측정으로부터 구하였고 열전도도를 측정하여 종합적인 열전성능을 평가하였다.

The thermal decomposition of a dilute mixture of 1,1,2,2,-$C_2H_2F_4$ in argon has been investigated in a single-pulse shock tube between 1146 and $1232^{\circ}K$ at total reflected shock pressures of about 3000 torr. Under these conditions the reaction proceeds exclusively by the molecular elimination of hydrogen fluoride. It has been found that the asymmetric isomer with the fully fluorinated ${\alpha}$-carbon requires the higher activation energy which may be attributed to the difference in atomic charge densities between isomers. The rate constant ratio is given by $log(k_1/k_2) = -0.069 {\pm} 0.021 ＋(1388{\pm}113) / 2.303RT$ in good agreement with previous independent studies.

The extraction rates of plasticizer of LPG high pressure rubber are studied. Submerging solvents are composed of propane, n-butane, n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, propylene, 1,3-butadiene, 1-pentene, 1-hexene, ethanethiol, t-butanethiol, dimethyl sulfide, methyl ethyl sulfide. The relationship between the extraction rate of plasticizer and the descriptors of submerging solvent by using multiple linear regression is as follows; PE(wt%) = 7.5193 - 0.58500Carbon${\sharp}$ + 2.3294DB + 2364SH, (N = 13, F = 24.135, R$^2$ = 0.8894, R$_{adj}^2$ = 0.8526, Variance = 7.588) Plasticizer is well extracted by LPG composed of the high vapour pressure and polarity compounds. The mass of extracted plasticizer becomes increasing in proportion to the contents of thiol sulfur compound and unsaturated hydrocarbon such as propylene and 1,3-butadiene in LPG. While the heavier hydrocarbons are, the less the quantities of plasticizer extracted from rubber are.

A new FET type semiconductor pressure sensor (PSFET : pressure sensitive field effect transistor) was fabricated and its operational characteristics were investigated. A ZnO thin film as a piezoelectric layer, $5000{\AA}$ thick, was deposited on a gate oxide of FET by RF magnetron sputtering. The deposition conditions to obtain a c-axis poling structure were substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$, RF power of 140watt, and working pressure of 5mtorr in Ar ambience. The fabricated PSFET device showed good linearity and stability in the applied pressure range($1{\times}10^{5}\;Pa{\sim}4{\times}10^{5}\;Pa$).

Studies on the development of high voltage superconducting apparatuses, such as transmission superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs) and superconducting cables, have been performed worldwide. In this paper, a study on the electrical insulation characteristics of electro negative gas according to various pressures and utilization factors was conducted as a part of developing a high voltage superconducting coil with a sub-cooled nitrogen cooling system. Some gases such as helium (He), nitrogen ($N_2$), and sulfur hexafluoride ($SF_6$) are considered for pressurizing the sub-cooled nitrogen cooling system of high voltage SFCLs and superconducting cables. $SF_6$ is used to pressurize and enhance the dielectric performance of a superconducting system of a sub-cooled nitrogen cooling system for superconducting cables being developed in the Republic of Korea. In this paper, dielectric experiments on AC voltage, as well as lightning impulse voltage of $SF_6$, are conducted according to various utilization factors by using several kinds of sphere-to-plane electrode systems. As results, it is known that the empirical formulae of $SF_6$, known as an electro negative gas, are derived according to various pressures and utilization factors. Also, the appropriate pressure condition for designing a high voltage superconducting coil is found from the viewpoint of dielectric performance.
