Some design changes were made to enhance the uniformity of temperature distribution inside the chamber of semiconductor test equipment. The design changes include the installation of adjustable airflow controller inside the chamber, the alignment of the centers of heater and match plate, the change in the size and the shape of holes in match plate base, and the addition of new holes of 2 mm diameter in order to allow airflow directly to the temperature sensors. In order to verify their effects, the temperature distributions inside the chambers were measured using 32 RTD sensors before and after the design changes. The temperature distributions were in the ranges of 87.1 to $91.5^{\circ}C$ ($90{\pm}2.9^{\circ}C$) and 89.5 to $90.8^{\circ}C$ ($90{\pm}0.8^{\circ}C$) before and after the design changes, respectively. The above temperature distribution after design changes was maintained for longer than 15 minutes, which satisfied the target temperature range of $90{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for longer than 10 minutes.

본 논문에서는 $400^{\circ}C$ 이상의 과열 증기발생을 위하여 6kW급 유도가열장치를 개발하여 식품건조 시스템에 적용한 예를 보인다. 유도가열장치는 과열 증기의 온도를 제어하기 위하여 인버터 입력 전압을 $100\sim200V$로 가변제어가 가능하게 하였고, 인버터 입력 전압은 벅컨버터를 사용하여 기준 전압을 과열증기의 온도에 대한 전압 값을 사용하여 제어하였으며, LC 공진에 의해 발생한 전류로 증기 가열 챔버를 유도 가열하여 과열 증기를 발생하게 하였다. 발생한 과열 증기는 식품 건조를 위하여 건조로에 투입되어 고온 건조에서 식품의 건조시간을 단축시킬 수 있었으며, 식품의 손상을 줄일 수 있었다. 이의 검증을 위하여 유도 가열 장치를 설계/제작하여 실험하였으며, 식품 건조 테스트를 행하였다.

이차전지의 수명 평가는 크게 Cycle life test 와 Calendar life test로 나뉘어져서 평가 되고 있다. Cycle life test로 수명 검증을 위해서는 일반적으로 3000 사이클 이상 테스트를 진행 하여야 하지만 이 방법은 시간이 장기화 되어 신뢰성 검증 및 새로운 부품 적용에 한계가 따른다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 고온 챔버 및 사이클 시험기를 사용하여 빠른 시간 내에 평가를 할 수 있는 가속시험법을 적용하여 수명을 평가 한 연구결과를 발표하고자 한다.

The purpose of this research is to develop Dementia-diagnosis application program through inter-working between biometric sensors and smart phone with diagnostic programs. Receiving data from 2 biometric sensors, SpO2 and HRV(heart rate variability) with Bluetooth and adding scores from questionnaires and memory test game, smart phone can draw a final Dementia Index(DI). Simple clinical tests provided threshold for Dementia, and diagnosis was made by comparing the DI with the threshold. We performed testing on persons aged over 60 and found out the proposed application can be used to diagnose Dementia easily and quickly. Additionally, we have shown the potential of oxygen chamber combined with Dementia-diagnosis application as a medical equipment to ease or cure Dementia in its early stages.

In this study, $CO_2$ adsorbent was developed for removing low concentration of $CO_2$ in multiple-use facilities. The efficiency of the adsorbent which was improved selective $CO_2$ adsorption capabilities was evaluated. The pellet type adsorbent was modified from a commercial zeolite with mixing LiOH, binder, additives, and $H_2O$. Column tests showed over 90 % of $CO_2$ was adsorbed within 400min. Chamber tests including batch and continuous types were performed for evaluating the adsorbent module. By batch tests, it was evaluated that about 92% of $CO_2$ was removed within 30 min. By continuous tests, 70% of $CO_2$ was removed within 30 min. It was analyzed that over 2,500 ppm of $CO_2$ was continuously removed as shown chamber tests. The reproducibility tests repeatedly performed for 15 days shows that over 1,000 ppm of $CO_2$ was continuously removed. Adsorption capacity of the developed adsorbent was 5.0mmol $CO_2/g$ adsorbent which was analyzed by TGA. It was estimated that the modified adsorbent was applicable to low $CO_2$ concentration and low temperature of indoor environment.

Photocatalytic VOCs removal test in gas phase is generally performed by placing the light source on the outside due to maintaining a constant temperature inside the test chamber. The distance between light source and photocatalysts is importantin the VOC degradation test since the intensity of light is rapidly decreased as the distance farther. Especially, for the choice of light source as UVLED, this issue is more critical because UVLED light source emits lots of heat and it is hard to measure the exact concentration of VOCs due to changed temperature in the test chamber. In this study, we modified VOC removal test chamber base on the protocol of air cleaner test and evaluated the efficiency of photocatalystunder UVLED irradiation. Photocatalystsof two different samples (commercial $TiO_2$ and the synthesized vanadium doped $TiO_2$) weretested for the p-xylene degradation in the closed chamber system and compared with each other in order to exclude any experimental uncertainties. During the VOC removal test, VOC concentrations were monitored and corrected at regular time intervals because the temperature in the chamber increases ${\sim}20^{\circ}C$ due tothe heat of UVLED. The results showed that theconversion ratio of p-xylene has 40~43% difference before and after the temperature correction. Based on those results, we conclude that the VOC concentration correction must be required for the VOC removal test in a closed chamber system under UVLED light source and obtained the corrected efficiencies of various photocatlysts.

Performance tests of supersonic exhaust diffuser were conducted by using hot combustion gas for simulating high-altitude environment. The test rig consists of a combustion chamber, a vacuum chamber, water cooling ring and diffuser. Before combustion experiments, the preliminary leak tests were carried out on the liquid rocket engine and diffuser by using high pressure nitrogen(30barg) and a vacuum pump. The leak test results showed that there was no leaks at high pressure and vacuum pressure conditions.

표면경도와 내마모특성을 가진 질화처리는 다양한 철강재료에 적용되고 있다. 플라즈마를 이용한 질화법은 다른 질화처리법에 비해 처리시간이 짧고 폐수 및 배기가스와 같은 오염물질의 발생이 거의 없어 친환경적이며 낮은 온도에서 처리가 가능하기 때문에 변형 및 금속학적 물성의 변화가 없는 것이 특징이다. 한편 DLC 처리법은 물리화학적 특성이 다이아몬드와 유사하면서도 저온 합성이 가능하고, 표면이 평활하다는 합성기술상의 장점을 가지고 있기 때문에 많은 분야에서의 응용이 연구되고 있는 재료이다. 특히 고경도, 고윤활성 등의 물리적, 화학적, 광학적 특성과 화학적 안정성과 신체적합성 등의 특성으로 인해 기계부품, 공구, 광학기기, 전자부품, 자동차부품과 의료용 기기분야 등에 적용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 질화처리 및 DLC 처리를 한 챔버내에서 동시처리하여 그 특성을 평가하였다. 이와같이 얻어진 처리물을 Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope를 이용하여 단면분석을 하였고, 시편의 경도는 나노인덴터로 측정하였다. ball-on-disk 방식의 마모시험기를 이용하여 내마모특성을 관찰하였으며, 접합력을 측정하기 위해 스크래치 테스트를 실시하였다.

Multichannel automated chamber systems (MCACs) were developed for the continuous monitoring of soil CO2 efflux in forest ecosystems. The MCACs mainly consisted of four modules: eight soil chambers with lids that automatically open and close, an infrared CO2 analyzer equipped with eight multichannel gas samplers, an electronic controller with time-relay circuits, and a programmable logic datalogger. To examine the stability and reliability of the developed MCACs in the field during all seasons with a high temporal resolution, as well as the effects of temperature and soil water content on soil CO2 efflux rates, we continuously measured the soil CO2 efflux rates and micrometeorological factors at the Nam-san experimental site in a Quercus mongolica forest floor using the MCACs from January to December 2010. The diurnal and seasonal variations in soil CO2 efflux rates markedly followed the patterns of changes in temperature factors. During the entire experimental period, the soil CO2 efflux rates were strongly correlated with the temperature at a soil depth of 5 cm (r2 = 0.92) but were weakly correlated with the soil water content (r2 = 0.27). The annual sensitivity of soil CO2 efflux to temperature (Q10) in this forest ranged from 2.23 to 3.0, which was in agreement with other studies on temperate deciduous forests. The annual mean soil CO2 efflux measured by the MCACs was approximately 11.1 g CO2 m-2 day-1. These results indicate that the MCACs can be used for the continuous long-term measurements of soil CO2 efflux in the field and for simultaneously determining the impacts of micrometeorological factors.

Currently, we are living in the world of invisible radio waves with a variety of frequencies. As today's society is rapidly changing to an era of wireless communication, the importances of antenna(especially, small patch antenna) are increasing according to the coming of wireless mobile communication society. In this paper, we design a small patch antenna which can support the functions of DMB and GPS through devices like cellular phone. The main feature and contribution of the designed patch antenna are as follows. First, the patch antenna is designed by HFSS and the ceramic materials for the patch antenna is utilized. Second, we obtain the patch antenna with reduced size and increased profit of reception, and the designed patch antenna can be applied for small devices.
