Protection of gas turbine blade from its erosion and abrasion at high temperature and pressure is the first goal to cleanup the hot gas upstream for IGCC and PFBC. Ceramic filters represent an attractive technology for particle removal at high temperature and high pressure condition. They have demonstrated being a good system for improvement of thermal efficiency and reduction of effluent pollutants in advanced coal-based power systems such as IGCC and PFBC. Ceramic filter elements currently being developed were evaluated in the previous paper. In this paper, we measured the ash size and distribution on cleaning of ceramic candle filter. The results are as follows : in this experimental range, ceramic candle filter was shown to be fully adequate for the removal process of dust under high temperature and pressure. Also filtration efficiency of ceramic candle filter was higher than 98% compared with the regulation limit of particle size in gas turbine inlet.

The average distortio of the vector quantizer is calcualted using a probability function F of the input source for a given codebook. But, since the input source is unknown in geneal, using the sample vectors that is realized from a random vector having probability function F, a time-average opeation is employed so as to obtain an approximation of the average distortion. In this case the size of the smple set should be large so that the sample vectors represent true F reliably. The theoretical inspection about the approximation, however, is not perfomed rigorously. Thus one might use the time-average distortion without any verification of the approximation. In this paper, the convergence characteristics of the time-average distortions are theoretically investigated when the size of sample vectors or the size of codebook gets large. It has been revealed that if codebook size is large enough, then small sample set is enough to obtain the average distortion by approximatio of the calculated tiem-averaged distortion. Experimental results on synthetic data, which are supporting the analysis, are also provided and discussed.

This paper presents the design of linear and circular polarization baseball- shaped circular microstrip antenna (BCMA) with 3-dimensional structure using perturbation effect to reduce its size, which runs at 1.575GHz frequency bandwidth. As a result, the size of linear polarized antenna could be reduced up to 23.7% in patch diameter and 41.8% in its area. Linear polarized antenna has -26.04dB of return loss, 69MHz(4.38%) of -l0dB bandwidth, 4.51dBd of gain, and its -3dB beamwidth are 99$^{\circ}$ in E-plane, 83$^{\circ}$ in H-plane. Circular polarized antenna has -17.43dB of return loss, 113.7MHz(7.2%) of -l0dB bandwidth, 2dBd of gain, 2dB of axial ratio and its -3dB beamwidth are 87$^{\circ}$, 86$^{\circ}$ x-axis polarized, 80$^{\circ}$, 84$^{\circ}$ y-axis polarized. It has 82mm of diameter, which is 28.5% of linear polarized CMPA. Therefore, in this paper we verified that baseball-shaped 3-dimensional structure of circular microstrip patch antenna applied with perturbation effect is appropriate for miniaturization.

In the last few years, a considerable number of studies have been made on On-Off solenoid for fluid control. But, only few attempts have so far been made at solenoid actuator for high-voltage circuit breaker. In case of the high-pressure and high-flow system like high-voltage circuit breaker, a big size of On/Off solenoid is necessary which size is proportional to control pressure and flow rate. So, it is non-effective in the view point of system optimization. In this paper, On/Off solenoid actuator with the farce amplifier connected to the solenoid rod was proposed to get a high mechanical force and a fast response time. The magnetic force and the mechanical stress distributions were analysed using finite element analysis. The performances of suggested solenoid actuator were evaluated through the experimental results and compared with the analysis results.

This paper describes a development of magnetic tomography system using two poles perpendicular magnetic field. In the system, the relative permeabilities of the object are detected by Hall sensors located along with tube circumference. The signals according to the size and position of the object could be separated in case the relative permeability of the object are over 10. Moreover, the size and location of the object could be determined in real time.

This paper describes the performance of a Ku-band 5-bit monolithic phase shifter with metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET) switches and the implementation of a ceramic packaged phase shifter for phase array antennas. Using compensation resistors reduced the insertion loss variation of the phase shifter. Measurement of the 5-bit phase shifter with a monolithic microwave integrated circuit demonstrated a phase error of less than $7.5{\circ}$ root-mean-square (RMS) and an insertion loss variation of less than 0.9 dB RMS for 13 to 15 GHz. For all 32 states of the developed 5-bit phase shifter, the insertion losses were $8.2{\pm}1.4$dB, the input return losses were higher than 7.7 dB, and the output return losses were higher than 6.8 dB for 13 to 15 GHz. The chip size of the 5- bit monolithic phase shifter with a digital circuit for controlling all five bits was 2.35 mm ${\times}$1.65 mm. The packaged phase shifter demonstrated a phase error of less than $11.3{\circ}$ RMS, measured insertion losses of 12.2 ${\pm}$2.2 dB, and an insertion loss variation of 1.0 dB RMS for 13 to 15 GHz. For all 32 states, the input return losses were higher than 5.0 dB and the output return losses were higher than 6.2 dB for 13 to 15 GHz. The size of the packaged phase shifter was 7.20 mm${\times}$ 6.20 mm.

Objectives: This paper aims to serve as a useful guide for sample size determination for various correlation analyses that are based on effect sizes and confidence interval width. Materials and Methods: Sample size determinations are calculated for Pearson's correlation, Spearman's rank correlation, and Kendall's Tau-b correlation. Examples of sample size statements and their justification are also included. Results: Using the same effect sizes, there are differences between the sample size determination of the 3 statistical tests. Based on an empirical calculation, a minimum sample size of 149 is usually adequate for performing both parametric and non-parametric correlation analysis to determine at least a moderate to an excellent degree of correlation with acceptable confidence interval width. Conclusions: Determining data assumption(s) is one of the challenges to offering a valid technique to estimate the required sample size for correlation analyses. Sample size tables are provided and these will help researchers to estimate a minimum sample size requirement based on correlation analyses.

This paper proposes a real-time dynamic storage allocation algorithm QSHF(quick-segregated-half-fit) that provides various memory allocation policies. that manages a free block list per each word size for memory requests of small size good(segregated)-fit policy that manages a free list per proper range size for medium size requests and half-fit policy that manages a free list per proper range size for medium size requests and half-fit policy that manages a free list per each power of 2 size for large size requests. The proposed algorithm has the time complexit O(1) and makes us able to easily estimate the worst case execution time(WCET). This paper also suggests two algorithm that finds the proper free list for the requested memory size in predictable time and if the found list is empty then finds next available non-empty free list in fixed time. In order to confirm efficiency of the proposed algorithm we simulated the memory utilization of each memory allocation policy. The simulation result showed that each policy guarantees the constant WCET regardless of memory size but they have trade-off between memory utilization and list management overhead.

A distributed balun such as Marchand balun typically shows good phase and amplitude balances, but its size is somewhat large especially in lower frequency band. In contrast, a lumped balun has compact size but its performance is not good compared with that of a distributed one. In this paper the distributed-coupled line can be reduced effectively by using the lumped-distributed implementation. Designed balun has two coupled line of each ${\lambda}/72$ and shows magnitude balance of 0.05 dB, phase balance of $0.7^{\circ}$ in passband. Balanced-type filter is designed using balun and it has insertion loss of 8 dB, return loss of 7 dB, magnitude balance of 0.2 dB, and phase balance of $1.2^{\circ}$ in passband.

Agar-agar extracted from red algae was used as a surface sizing material for paper after filtering, bleaching, and viscosity adjustment by oxidative depolymerization. Oxidized starches from corn and tapioca were compared to agar-based surface size in the respects of paper surface modification, strength improvement, and printability. Agar-based surface size showed high strength improvement and good printability as much as starch-based ones except film forming ability, which may be improved by adding additives, and demonstrated its great potential to be used as inexpensive and high quality surface size in future.
