The use of plasma has increased in bio-application field in recent years. Particularly, water treated by arc discharge or atmospheric pressure plasma has been actively utilized in bio-industry. In this study, we have developed a plasma activated water generating system. For this system, two kinds of plasma sources; dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma and arc discharge plasma have been used. The discharge energy was calculated using the breakdown voltage and current, and the emission spectrum was measured to investigate the generated reactive species. We also analyzed the amount of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in water using the chemical methods and nitric oxide sensor. Finally, the influence of plasma generated reactive species on the germination and growth of spinach (Spinacia oleracea) was investigated. Spinach is a green leafy vegetable that contains a large amount of various physiologically active organic compounds. However, it is characterized with a low seed germination rate.

The discharge coefficients of critical sonic nozzles were obtained in a high pressure gas flow standard system, which was a gravitational weighing system. The discharge coefficients of critical sonic nozzle farbricated according to ISO specifications are in good agreement with ISO correlation. The discharge coefficients for small inlet radius decrease significantly as the inlet length become short due3 to separation at the sharp-edged inlet. For nozzles having long inlet radius, the effects of inlet length on the discharge coefficients were relatively small, but the effects become significant at the short inlet length. The effect of separation at the sharp-edged inlet is stronger than that of the boundary layer growth. The experimental results support that the shape of critical sonic nozzles suggested by ISO specifications is excellent.

Carbon nanotube (CNT) properties, produced using a magnetic null discharge (MND) plasma production technology, were investigated. We firstly deposited the Fe layer 200 nm in thickness on Si substrate by the magnetic null discharge sputter method at the substrate temperature of $300도C$, and then prepared CNTs on the catalyst layer by using the magnetic null discharge (MND) based CVD method. CNTs were deposited in a gas mixture of CH4 and N2 at a total pressure of 1 Torr by the MND-CVD method. The substrate temperature and the RF power were $650^{\circ}C$ and 600W, respectively. The characterization data indicated that the proposed source could synthesize CNTs even under relatively severe conditions for the magnetic null discharge formation.

Facing target dc sputtering system developed by Hoshi et al. has simple configuration and high deposition rate under moderate substrate temperature in the range of pressure 5x10S0-4T - 1x10S0-2T torr. In this system, magnetic field should be applied perpendicular to the target surface in order to confine high energy secondary electrons between two targets. Because of this magnetic field, the glow discharge characteristics are very different from dc planar diode system showing some unstable discharge region. In this paper, the glow discharge characteristics of this system have been studied under the condition of Ti targets with Ar-NS12T(10%) as working gas. It is found that this system has stable discharge region under the discharge current density of 15-30(mA/cmS02T). The plasma density and electron temperature are in the range of 10S010Y - 10S011T(CMS0-3T) and 2.5-5(eV), respectively.

For a single stage two cylinder rotary compressor, an analytical study has been made on the discharge gas pulsation. Discharge system of the twin rotary compressor consists of lower and upper mufflers and connecting passage holes between them, and cavities on both sides of the motor and passages between them. Acoustic modeling for the discharge system by transfer matrix method gives acoustic impedances at discharge valves so that gas pulsation at the valve sections can be obtained from discharge mass velocity. Since the mass velocity and the pressure pulsation at the valves are affected by each other, iteration should be made for convergence. Gas pulsations at other sections can also be calculated by using transfer matrix.

Electrostatic precipitators(EPs) have low pressure drop and high dust collection efficiency and are widely used for industrial dust collectors. The current-voltage characteristics, which are important to maintain high dust collection efficiency, depend on several factor: discharge electrode shape, gas flow property, dust loading etc. In this study, experiments are performed to investigate the current-voltage characteristics of the corona discharge of various electrode geometries and an empirical model is proposed to predict current-voltage characteristics of the corona discharge. The corona onset voltage correction coefficient$(\alpha)$ and the geometry correction coefficient$(k_g)$ are used to the conventional equation for wire-plate type discharge electrode. The corona onset voltages are -6.3kV and almost constant when the numbers of discharge pins are varied from 3 to 9. The length of discharge pins has very sensitive effects on the corona onset voltage. They are increased from -6.3 to -7.8kV when the discharge pin length are 8.5 and 4.5mm, respectively. The empirical model shows good agreement with experimental results and can predict the effects of discharge pin length and number.

Generally, it is difficult to analyze cast iron samples with spark discharge emission spectrometry since the content of carbon in these samples is high as a few percent. The cast iron samples were analyzed with the developed glow discharge emission spectrometer composed of glow discharge emission source and polychromator. The discharge condition of glow discharge lamp(GDL) has been optimized by variation of Ar gas pressure, discharge voltage and discharge time. Under the optimum conditions obtained in this work, relationships between the measured emission intensities and concentration of two types of cast iron standard samples(BAS, LECO) were investigated. Most of elements(Mn, Si, P, S etc.) showed the good linearity in one calibration curve. And the carbon showed slightly the systematic difference according to the type of standard samples.

We have been studying on the discharged phenomena if compound dielectrics for insulator which is very important in electric machinery and et al. In this paper we come to the couclusion that as a result of studying on the electric design of Ozonizer, the higher frequency becomes the better output could be got, and then discharge power could be the greatest by selecting the distance of the discharge gap and atomospheric pressure properly under the same applied voltage, and that power factor of the Ozonizer reached the maximum power at a particular frequency when the discharge power is maintained at constant.

The Ultra Violet(UV) emission characteristics of Neon + Nitrogen gas-mixture discharge was investigated in AC plasma display panel. The firing voltage of Ne+$N_2$ gas-mixture discharge increased with increasing nitrogen concentration. The UV intensity emitted from the gas discharge also increased with increasing nitrogen concentration. The UV efficiency increase with increasing $N_2$ partial pressure at low $N_2$ concentration, and then UV efficiency is saturated at high $N_2$ concentration.
