In this work, AlON-$Al_2O_3$ coatings were prepared on Al2021 alloy by the electrolytic plasma processing (EPP) method. The experimental electrolytes include: 2 g/l NaOH as the electrolytic conductive agent, 10 g/l $Na_2AlO_2$ as the alumina formative agent, and 0.5 g/l $NaNO_2$, $NaNO_3$, and $NH_4NO_3$ as the nitride inducing agents. The effects of different nitrogen inducing agents were studied by a combined compositional and structural analyses of the ceramic coatings carried out by Xray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for the specimens EPP-treated at room temperature for 15 min under a hybrid voltage of 260 DC along with an AC 50 Hz power supply (200 V). Microhardness tests and wear tests were carried out to correlate the evolution of the microstructure and the resulting mechanical properties. Potentiodynamic polarizations and immersion corrosion tests were carried out in 3.5wt% NaCl water solutions under static conditions in order to evaluate the corrosion behavior of the coated samples. The results demonstrate that $NaNO_2$ is proven to be a good nitrogen inducing agent to produce high quality AlON-$Al_2O_3$ ceramic coatings.

지중송전라인에서 전압등급의 상승은 선로손실을 줄이면서 밀집된 전력수요에 대응하거나 특별히 고전압 수요를 맞추기 위한 것으로 이것은 XLPE Cable의 제조기술이 향상되면서 지속적으로 진행되어온 초고압송전계통의 일반적 추세이다. 이러한 경향으로 해외에서는 케이블 도체의 송전용량을 증대시킬 수 있는 방법으로 케이블 도체에 에나멜 코팅을 하여 집합을 한다. 그러므로써 기존 케이블에서 발생되는 표피현상 및 근접효과에 의한 AC 저항 요소를 줄여 요구하는 전류용량을 기존 비소선절연 케이블에 비해 더 많이 송전할 수 있다. 하지만, 소선절연 케이블이 전류 용량을 증대 시킬 수 있는 장점은 있으나 접속재의 경우 도체의 에나멜 코팅을 제거해야 하는 문제점이 있다. 당사는 에나멜 코팅을 제거하는 방법을 개발 완료함으로써 본 접속재의 개발을 앞당길 수 있었다. 당사는 쿠웨이트 400kV MEW/C/3931 Project에 400kV XLPE 1C${\times}$2500SQ 소선절연 초고압송전라인을 적용하였는데 본고에서는 여기에 적용된 400kV XLPE 1C${\times}$25000SQ 소전절연 케이블 부속재의 신뢰성을 높이기 위한 설계방법, 시험 및 시공에 대하여 요약하였다.

The objective of the present study is to investigate the effects of various turbulence models on the aerodynamic noise of an air-conditioner (AC) indoor unit. The results from URANS (unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes) simulations with the standard k-$\varepsilon$, k-$\omega$ shear stress transport (SST) and Spalart-Allmaras (S-A) turbulence models were analyzed and compared with the noise data from the experiments. The frequency spectra of the far-field acoustic pressure were computed using the Farrasat equation derived from the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings (FW-H) equation based on the acoustic analogy model. Two fixed fan casings and the rotating cross-flow fan were used as the source surfaces of the dipole noise in the Farrasat equation. The result with the standard k-$\epsilon$ model showed a much better agreement with the experimental data compared to the k-w SST and S-A models. The differences in the pressure spectra from the different turbulence models were discussed based on the instantaneous vorticity fields. It was found that the over-estimated power spectra with the k-w SST and S-A models are related to the emphasized small-scale vortices produced with these models.

The plasma emission characteristics are investigated in cylindrical syringe plasma jet device. Cylindrical syringe electrode is applied AC power using inverter. In the center of syringe is injected into a inert gas and plasma jet occurs. If there is no ground electrode, firing voltage is 3 kV and plasma column length is 10 mm. According to high firing voltage and large current, the plasma column length control is difficult. The case of an internal ground electrode, firing voltage is 1 kV. Because of the losing current from internal ground, even if a higher input voltage, plasma emission does not occur. The case of an external ground electrode, the plasma column can be controlled between 0~10 mm with change the applied voltage from 1 to 2 kV, and the discharging current changed from 1 to 4 mA.

This study presented the strength of the materials and parts for smart distribution board fabrication, and developed a work operation process chart for smart distribution board fabrication. This work operation process chart for smart distribution board fabrication complied with SPS-KEMC regulations, and the applicable range and object are less than 1,000 V and 1,000 Hz for the AC distribution board and less than 1,500 V for the DC distribution board. The power supply is 3 phase 4 wires ($3{\Phi}$ 4W), divided into a single phase circuit and a 3 phase circuit. In addition, the circuit was configured so that the leakage current flowing through the distribution line of the load could be monitored in real time by using the sensor module installed at the rear end of the circuit breaker. Therefore, the administrator can easily find the risk factor of the load since engineer can check the leakage current of each distribution line. In addition, if a leakage current greater than standard value flows, it is possible to generate an alarm against a short circuit and cut off the leakage current. The work operation process chart for the smart distribution board fabrication consists of the following steps: raw and subsidiary materials, sheet metal work, tube making, welding, painting, busbar fabrication, assembly and wiring, product inspection, shipment, etc. Moreover, symbols, ${\Delta}$, ${\nabla}$, ${\bigcirc}$, ${\Rightarrow}$, etc. were used according to the type of work and work progress so that workers can easily understand the progress of the work.

This study aims to develop and advance the evaluation technology for assessing PHWR safety. For this purpose, the complete loss of AC power or station blackout (SBO) was selected as a target accident scenario and the analysis model to evaluate the plant responses was envisioned into the MARS-KS input model. The model includes the main features of the primary heat transport system with a simplified model for the horizontal fuel channels, the secondary heat transport system including the shell side of steam generators, feedwater and main steam line, and moderator system. A steady state condition was achieved successfully by running the present model to check out the stable convergence of the key parameters. Subsequently, through the SBO transient analyses two cases with and without the coolant leakage via the PHTS pumps were simulated and the behaviors of the major parameters were compared. The sensitivity analysis on the amount of the coolant leakage by varying its flow area was also performed to investigate the effect on the system responses. It is expected that the results of the present study will contribute to upgrading the evaluation technology of the detailed thermal hydraulic analysis on the SBO transient of the operating PHWRs.

This paper presents a high efficiency resonant asymmetrical half-bridge flyback converter. The primary half-bridge circuit of the converter operates by a soft-switching type using the asymmetrical pulse-width modulation (PWM) method with the resonant capacitance and transformer leakage inductance. The secondary flyback circuit of the proposed converter utilizes a synchronous rectifier, which operates by a new voltage-driven method with a simple drive circuit. Thus the proposed converter improves the total efficiency. This paper explains the operational principle of the proposed converter by each mode and shows the converter design consideration and a design example for the prototype converter, respectively. After that, the proposed simple driving technique of the synchronous rectifier by a voltage-driven method is explained, briefly. The designed prototype converter has wide input voltage (AC $V_{in,rms}$=75~265[V]), 5[V] DC output voltage, and 100[W] output power. To verify the excellent performance of the proposed converter, the designed prototype is implemented and experimented. The good performance of the proposed converter is shown through the experimental results.

This paper describes the fusing time characteristics of Light PVC Sheathed Circular Cord(VCTF) and Tray Frame Retardant(TFR) cables according to increased temperature under over current condition. The experimental equation will be used to determine the validity and reliability of the test results. The over current flowed 3, 5 and 10 times higher than the amount of allowable current using DC power supply with DAQ(Data Acquisition) measurement system. An infrared radiation heater, which was controlled by a variable AC auto transformer, was used to increase the temperature from room temperature to 50, 100 and 150 degrees Celsius. First, two type of cables were analyzed those with different cross-sectional areas with in the same structure and those with different structures with in the same cross-sectional areas. Then, it was determined how fusing time had been influenced according to the cross-sectional areas and different structures, respectively. The cable resistance was increased by joule heating according to increasing temperature. Therefore, the allowable current of cable is decreased. Finally, the fusing time of the cable was decreased due to increased temperatures at current flow, which were 3 times the amount of allowable current. The instantaneous breakdown was observed when current flow was 5 and 10 times over the amount of allowable current. The fusing time is directly affected by the structure of cable insulation.

This paper deals with a comparison of individual and connecting grounding electrode for potential rise. When a test current flowed through grounding electrode, potential rise was measured and analyzed for grounding method using a electrolytic tank in real time. In order to analyze the potential rise of grounding systems, a hemispherical water tank experimental apparatus was studied. Potential rise was measured and analyzed regarding the grounding method and distance by using this apparatus. The apparatus was composed of a hemispherical water tank, AC power supply, a movable potentiometer, and test grounding electrodes. The potential rise was measured by the horizontal moving probe of the potentiometer. The grounding electrodes were designed and fabricated with ground rods on a scale of one-eightieth. Potential rises of individual grounding electrode were higher than those of connecting grounding electrode. The distributions of surface potential are dependent on the distance from grounding electrode.

We present a novel 3D fabrication method with single X-ray process utilizing an X-ray mask in which a micro-actuator is integrated. An X-ray absorber is electroplated on the shuttle mass driven by the integrated micro-actuator during deep X-ray exposures. 3D microstructures are revealed by development kinetics and modulated in-depth dose distribution in resist, usually PMMA. Fabrication of X-ray masks with integrated electrothermal xy-stage and electrostatic actuator is presented along with discussions on PMMA development characteristics. Both devices use $20-\mu\textrm{m}$-thick overhanging single crystal Si as a structural material and fabricated using deep reactive ion etching of silicon-on-insulator wafer, phosphorous diffusion, gold electroplating, and bulk micromachining process. In electrostatic devices, $10-\mu\textrm{m}-thick$ gold absorber on $1mm{\times}1mm$ Si shuttle mass is supported by $10-\mu\textrm{m}-wide$, 1-mm-long suspension beams and oscillated by comb electrodes during X-ray exposures. In electrothermal devices, gold absorber on 1.42 mm diameter shuttle mass is oscillated in x and y directions sequentially by thermal expansion caused by joule heating of the corresponding bent beam actuators. The fundamental frequency and amplitude of the electrostatic devices are around 3.6 kHz and $20\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively, for a dc bias of 100 V and an ac bias of 20 VP-P (peak-peak). Displacements in x and y directions of the electrothermal devices are both around $20{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$at 742 mW input power. S-shaped and conical shaped PMMA microstructures are demonstrated through X-ray experiments with the fabricated devices.
