Observation and data analysis techniques have been developed for observational blind areas in the lower atmosphere that are difficult to be monitored with fixed equipment on the ground. The vertical data of temperature and relative humidity are remotely collected by the UHF radiosonde installed on UAV and compared with the data measured in the 10 m weather tower. From the validated vertical profile, extrapolated surface temperature and the bulk transfer method were used to estimate the sensible heat flux depending on the atmospheric stability. Compared with the sensible heat flux measured by the 3-dimensional ultrasonic anemometer on the ground, the error of the sensible heat flux estimated was 23% that is less than the range of 30% allowed in the remote sensing. Estimated atmospheric boundary layer height from UAV sensible heat fluxes can provide useful data for air pollution diffusion models in real time and economically.

Evapotranspiration (ET) from the various surfaces needs to be understood because it is a crucial hydrological factor to grasp interaction between the land surface and the atmosphere. A traditional way of estimating it, which is calculating it empirically using lysimeter and pan evaporation observations, has a limitation that the measurements represent only point values. However, these measurements cannot describe ET because it is easily affected by outer circumstances. Thus, remote sensing technology was applied to estimate spatial distribution of ET. In this study, we estimated major components of energy balance method (i.e. net radiation flux, soil heat flux, sensible heat flux, and latent heat flux) and ET as a map using Mapping Evapo-Transpiration with Internalized Calibration (METRIC) satellite-based image processing model. This model was run using Landsat imagery of Gyeongan watershed in Korea on Feb 1, 2003 and Sep 13, 2006. Basic statistical analyses were also conducted. The estimated mean daily ETs had respectively 22% and 11% of errors with pan evaporation data acquired from the Suwon Weather Station. This result represented similar distribution compared with previous studies and confirmed that the METRIC algorithm had high reliability in the watershed. In addition, ET distribution of each land use type was separately examined. As a result, it was identified that vegetation density had dominant impacts on distribution of ET. Seasonally, ET in a growing season represented significantly higher than in a dormant season due to more active transpiration. The ET maps will be useful to analyze how ET behaves along with the circumstantial conditions; land cover classification, vegetation density, elevation, topography.

Atomization characteristics of small LRE-injector spray are investigated by using dual-mode phase Doppler anemometry (DPDA). Velocity, size, number density, and volume flux were measured at various injection pressures along the radial distance to make a close inquiry into spatial distribution characteristic of spray droplets. As the injection pressure increases, the velocity, turbulence intensity, number density, and volume flux of spray droplets become higher, whereas the droplet size ($D_{10}$ or $D_{32}$) gets smaller. Also, velocity and volume flux are proportional to Sauter mean diameter (SMD, $D_{32}$).

대기의 불규칙한 수증기 분포로 인해 VLBI 관측시 visibility 위상에 불규칙한 변화가 발생한다. 이를 보정하기 위해 phase-referencing 기법 등을 이용할 수 있다. KVN calibrator survey는 Phase-referencing 기법에 필수적인 위상보정 calibrator를 얻기 위한 연구이다. 2, 8GHz 대역에서 관측된 VLBA(Very Long Baseline Array) Calibrator Survey(VCS) 목록을 기초로 power-law를 가정하여 22GHz에서 100mJy 이상일 것으로 예상되는 천체 2503개를 KVN Calibrator Survey의 대상으로 선정하였다. 먼저 KVN 연세 전파망원경을 이용하여 2009년 12월부터 2010년 6월까지 22GHz에서 500mJy 이상으로 예상되는 천체 595개에 대한 플럭스 측정 관측을 진행하였고 22GHz에서 517개, 43GHz에서 226개의 천체를 검출하였다. 이어 200mJy 이상 500mJy 미만으로 예상되는 천체 983개에 대하여 추가 관측을 진행하고 있다. 그리고 플럭스가 측정된 천체들에 대하여 VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry(VERA)와 VLBA, 각각 K밴드에서 관측된 결과와 비교하여 중복되지 않은 천체들에 대해 VLBI 관측을 수행하여 천체의 위치와 구조에 대한 정보를 얻을 계획이다.

This experimental study represents the results of an analysis on the characteristics of flux density distributions in the focal region of solar concentrator. The characteristics of flux density distributions are investigated to optimally design and position a cavity receiver. This deemed very useful to find and correct various errors associated with a dish concentrator. We estimated the flux density distribution on the target placed along with focal lengths from the dish vertex to experimentally determine the focal length. It is observed that the actual focal point exists when the focal length is 2.17 m. We also evaluated the position of flux centroid, and it was found that there were errors within 2 cm from the target center. The total integrated power of 2467 W was measured under focal flux distributions, which corresponds to the intercept rate of 85.8%. As a result of the percent power within radius, approximately 90% of the incident radiation is intercepted by about 0.06 m radius.

A solar concentrator, named KIERDISH II, was built at KIER in order to investigate the feasibility of high temperature solar energy application system. The constructed concentrator is a dish type solar concentrator with a focal length of 4.68m and a diameter of 7.9m. To successfully operate KIERDISH II, optimal design of the absorber is very important and flux density distribution has to be known. The focal flux density distribution on the receiver was measured. We have observed the shape and size of flux images and evaluated percent power within radius. Flux density distribution is usually measured by a CCD(charge coupled device) camera and a radiometer. In this paper we present a flux mapping method to estimate the characteristic features of the flux density distribution in the focal region of solar concentrator. The minimum radius of receiver is found to be 0.15m and approximately 90% of the incident radiation is intercepted by receiver aperture.

In this study, an analytical model has been developed to predict the build-up of heat field due to a point heat source in the presence of sharp cross-flow depth change. The model has been applied to investigate the effect of the depth change and flow pattern on the heat field. Model results show that, when there is a sharp depth change in cross-flow direction, the heat transport across the boundary of the depth change is enhanced or diminished according to the increasing or decreasing of the horizontal diffusion flux. Including residual components as well as tidal currents give rise to reduce the effect of the horizontal diffusion on the heat transport because of increasing the advection of heat.

SiN 박막을 Pulsed-PECVD를 이용하여 증착하였다. 박막특성으로는 굴절률, 플라즈마의 특성으로는 이온 에너지 분포를 duty ratio의 함수로 분석하였다. 50-100%의 범위에서 duty ratio의 감소에 따라 고 이온 에너지는 크게 증가하였으며, 반대로 저 이온 에너지는 감소되었다. 굴절률은 duty ratio의 감소에 따라 증가되었으며, 모든 duty ratio의 변화에서 1.75-1.81 사이에서 변화하였다. 40-90%의 duty ratio에서 저 이온 에너지 플럭스보다 고 이온 에너지 플럭스가 높았다. 한편, 굴절률의 변화는 $N_h$의 변화에 가장 밀접하게 연관되어 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Effects of steel-skeletons on the geomagnetic distribution in building have been studied through the simulation and measurement of geomagnetic distribution at floor surface. Geomagnetic distribution was simulated by the finite element method, and the vertical component Z of geomagnetic field on the floor surface was measured with the fluxgate-type magnetometer. Horizontal steel-skeletons have a little effect on the Z distribution, but vertical skeletons disturb severely the Z distribution and result in the localized geomagnetic disturbance. This disturbance becomes weakened by the bypassing soft-magnetic plate and/or floor.

To verify the effect of inner- and outer-stage gas jets, a shear coaxial injector was designed to analyze the axial velocity profile and breakup phenomenon with an increase in the measurement distance. When the measurement position was increased to Z/d=100, the axial flow showed a fully developed shape due to the momentum transfer, aerodynamic drag effect, and viscous mixing. An inner gas injection, which induces a higher momentum flux ratio near the nozzle, produces the greater shear force on atomization than an outer gas injection. Inner- and Outer-stage gas injection do not affect the mixing between the inner and outer gas flow below Z/d=5. The experiment results showed that the main effect of liquid jet breakup was governed by the gas jet of an inner stage. As the nozzle exit of the outer-stage was located far from the liquid column, shear force and turbulence breaking up of the liquid jets do not fully affect the liquid column. In the case of an inner-stage gas injection momentum flux ratio within 0.84, with the increase in the outer gas momentum flux ratio, the SMD decreases. However, at an inner-stage gas jet momentum flux ratio over 1.38, the SMD shows the similar distribution.
