진공아크소스의 거대입자 제거를 위하여 이중 굽힘형 자장여과 아크 소스를 제작하였다. 소스의 각 전자석의 역할을 조사하고, 발전 안정화 영역에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 또한 이중 굽힘 자장여과아크소스의 아크방전전압, 주입가스의 위치, 유량 및 플라즈마 덕트의 전압에 따른 인출 이온빔의 공간적 분포 및와 에너지 분포에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 압력 0.1 mtorr에서 인출 이온빔의 평균에너지는 45$\sim$50 eV를 나타내었으며, 압력이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다.

An Enhanced Huels Type Plasma Torch that generates over $5000^{\circ}C$ plasma arc flow is the core equipment of arc-jet wind tunnel. It is applied to the high-tech areas such as a new materials development and eco-friendly industry. Although the Enhanced Huels Type Plasma Torch produce uniform flow of high purity, its complicated structure and operating condition makes the commercialization of it to be difficult. The 400kW arc-jet generator using the enhanced Huels type plasma torch was tested. The result of this study showed that the torch was operated in the range of 280~320 A and 250~1350 V.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate color change and enamel surface changes using the plasma arc light source during tooth bleaching treatments. Twenty-four extracted bovine incisors were selected and embedded in the resin blocks. All the specimens were highly polished and discolored with commercial $COCK^{(R)}$. High concentration carbamide peroxide with and without plasma arc were used for bleaching. Specimens were bleached for 1 hour per week during 3 weeks. Color and enamel surface changes were determined with colorimeter (TC-8600A), microhardness tester(MXT-a7), scanning electron microscope(S-4200). All the collected data analyzed with paired t-test, t-test and one-way ANOVA. After the bleaching, both groups showed the color changes(${\Delta}E^*$). Microhardness of two group decreased after tooth bleaching. The SEM evaluation of enamel surface of both group showed a similar morphology of decalcification after tooth bleaching. Office bleaching using the plasma arc application with 35% carbamide peroxide can increase the color change. Office bleaching using the high concentration of carbamide peroxide and plasma arc also detract the outer surface of enamel. It is recommended that careful procedures are needed during office bleaching with high concentration of carbamide peroxide and light source.

Through the results of off-gas analysis at 3 sampling points in Plasma Arc Melting vitrification pilot plant, it was evaluated the partitioning of spiked materials in off-gas and the decontamination characteristic of off-gas treatment system. Spiked materials are hazard_us heavy metals(Pb, Cd, Hg), radioactive surrogate(Co, Cs) and radioactive materials($^{60}Co,\;^{137}Cs$). Through the Trial burn tests, Decontamination factor of spiked materials in off-gas treatment system is calculated.

In this study, Arc plasma was employed for the thermal decomposition of nitrous oxide($N_2O$). Conventional ignition systems such as torch, spark, and catalyst systems, have disadvantages in that they are not reliable and do not provide rapid responses. Therefore, this study suggests the plasma application of plasma to overcome the problems of conventional ignition methods. A gas temperature and combustion experiment was carried out to investigate the feasibility to a novel igniter. The gas temperature was measured around $960^{\circ}C$ at 1 g/s, 0.7 A at the nearest wall. In addition, a combustion test was successfully conducted in 3.1 sec after the plasma discharge was initiated with a main flow rate of 10 g/s. The energy consumption for ignition was 1,780 J(574 W).

The coupled simulation is performed to find out the interaction of arc plasmas with surrounding materials in a thermal puffer plasma chamber. In order to be more realistic, PTFE nozzle ablation and Cu electrode evaporation, which are caused by high temperature of arc plasmas, are considered together. Pressure rise and temperature inside the chamber generated during the whole arcing history are investigated with the applied currents. It is very important to define how thermal flow and mass transfer are processing between the arc plasma and surrounding materials for further understanding complex physics inside the chamber. It is concluded that the result might be very useful to understand the mechanism happened inside and to design thermal puffer plasma chambers, but further experimental studies are required to verify the results for the more practical applications.

The computational investigation is performed to find out the interaction of arc plasmas with surrounding materials and the thermal flow characteristics in a PASB (Puffer-Assisted Self-Blast) chamber, which is one of new breaking concepts in $SF_6$ switchgears. It is very important to define the flow and mass transfer happened during the full arcing history for further understanding complex physics inside the chamber. In this study, we have considered two diffusion processes by the hot arc plasma, one is PTFE nozzle ablation and the other is Cu electrode evaporation, simultaneously. It was found that the principle of the pressure-rise inside the chamber is confirmed by the computational results and the increase of the electrical conductivity of the residual gas near current zero is critical to the chamber design.

교류 펄스전압을 이용한 글라이딩 아크 플라즈마를 이용하여 PFCs(Perfluoro compounds) 가스의 일종인 $CF_4$ $SF_6$, $NF_3$를 가스분해하는 연구를 실시하였다. 반응기 양전극 사이에 인가되는 전압은 10kV로 고정하고 각각의 가스의 유량을 조절하여 분해한후 FT-IR을 통해 각각의 가스의 분해율과 분해후 가스내 성분을 스펙트럼을 이용하여 분석하였다. 유량이 낮아질수록 분해율은 좋아졌고 $SF_6$와 $NF_3$의 경우 99%이상의 높은 분해율에 도달하였을 뿐 아니라 대표적인 난분해 가스로 손꼽히는 $CF_4$의 경우 82%이상의 분해율을 확인하였다.

This paper describes an automatic weld seam tracking method of plasma arc welding system designed for the corrugation panel that consists of a linear section and a curved section with various curvatures. Due to the complexity of the panel shape, it is difficult to find a seam and operate a torch manually in the welding process. So, the laser vision sensor for seam tracking is designed for sensing the seam position and controlling a torch automatically. To achieve precise seam tracking, the design of sensor head, image simulation, and calibration are carried out. Through a series of experiment result, compensation algorithm is added and real time error compensation is achieved. The experiment result shows that this vision sensor works effectively. It will provide more precise welding performance and convenience to the operator.
