The conventional harmonic filters to reduce zero harmonic current from neutral reactors and Zig-Zag connection, have several disadvantages of the decreased reduction rate of harmonics under a light load, because they have the load factor-dependent reduction rate of harmonics, and the risk of potential breaking in the neutral line by heated neutral reactor. Based Zig-Zag connection and Open-Delta mode, this new harmonic eliminating device (HANOS) adopts the combination of Zig-Zag connection and Open-Delta mode-the latter is additionally applied to the transformer's core block for connection to the neutral line. The results of this study demonstrated that the new device could eliminate safely zero harmonic current running in the neutral line without heating.

The ignition characteristics of a reactive solid with rough surface by constant heat flux were studied. The geometry of surface was represented by a set of identical protrusions having a shape of wedge based on the block of reactive solid. Several regimes of ignition were found, depending on the ratio of the protrusion length and the depth of the heated layer, formed in course of ignition process: 1) when the substance is ignited as the massive block, and the effect of roughness is not pronounced; 2) when ignited are the individual protrusions; and 3) in the intermediate region between the first two. Critical ignition conditions: ignition time and ignition criterion, are determined for the three regimes. The results are compared with the results for the one-dimensional ignition of the semi-infinite body. It is shown, that the effect of geometry on ignition results in the considerable reduction of ignition delay, and the amount of energy required for the successful ignition is less compared to the one- dimensional case.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of heated spreader on the sealing ability of lateral condensation, compared with regular cold spreader. Forty two extracted human teeth with single canal were randomly placed into 3 experimental groups, and four additional teeth were used as positive and negative controls. Each group was prepared with Ni-Ti Profile #40 using step-down technique and obturated with standardized colored gutta-percha cone by standard(cold) lateral condensation technique, warm lateral condensation technique with Endotec and hot spreader soaked in glass bead sterilizer, each with Sealapex sealer. Control groups were not obturated, but prepared. After 2 days in 2% methylene blue, the teeth were invested and made into transparent resin blocks. And then, each block was sectioned horizontally with microtome at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 mm levels from the apex. The linear extent of dye penetration was examined with stereomicroscope at ${\times}$20 magnification. At each of 5 levels, ratio of the area of gutta-percha was obtained by calculating the area of gutta-percha to the total area of the canal. The data collected were then analyzed statistically using an analysis of variance(ANOVA) and Scheffe test. The results were as follows ; 1. All experimental groups produced the apical microleakage. 2. The mean leakage was 1.57${\pm}$0.76mm for cold spreader group, 0.86${\pm}$0.95mm for Endotec spreader group, and 0.64${\pm}$0.93mm for hot spreader group. The difference between hot spreader group and cold spreader group was statistically significant(p<0.05). 1. At the 1 mm level, the mean ratio of area of gutta-percha was 74.58${\pm}$13.15(%) for cold spreader group, 65.42${\pm}$14.62(%) for Endotec spreader group, and 80.72${\pm}$14.63(%) for hot spreader group. There was statistically significant difference between hot spreader group and Endotec spreader group(p<0.05). 2. At the 2mm level, the mean ratio of area of gutta-percha was 87.86${\pm}$11.22(%) for cold spreader group, 66.55${\pm}$14.02(%) for Endotec spreader group, and 92.93${\pm}$7.24(%) for hot spreader group. There was statistically significant difference between Endotec spreader group and other two spreader groups(p<0.05). 3. At the level 3, 4, 5 mm, there was no statistically significant difference between each group. Within the limits of the results of this experiment, warm lateral condensation technique with hot spreader soaked in a glass bead sterilizer demonstrated favorable apical sealing effect and improved density of gutta-percha mass. Thus, it is thought that this obturation technique is effective for clinical use and beneficial to reduce condensation forces, also economical and easy.

Since the engineering plastics having a melting point of higher than 300 degrees have a high mechanical rigidity, chemical resistance, friction and abrasion performance, those are being highlighted as metal replacement materials in various industries. In this study, 3D printer nozzle with excellent heat dissipation characteristics are designed and analytically verified to form engineering plastics with high melting points in 3D printers based on the melt-lamination modeling method. In order to insulate between the heat block heated to a melting point of filament material and the upper part of the nozzle where the filament is transferred, the heat brake part with low thermal conductivity was designed to have two separate parts, and a cooling fin structure is further applied to the heat brake part to lower steady-state temperature by air convection. Optimized structural design on FDM nozzle part reduces the temperature at the heat sink and at the end part of heat brake by 50% and 14% respectively, compared to the conventional BCnozzle structure.

Purpose: Zirconia blocks for all ceramic dentures are divided into two groups. One is pre-heated block and the other is binder added block. In this study, the possibility of recycling the remained parts of binder added block after CAD/CAM machining with slip casting process was investigated. Methods: Owing to the binder added block contain large amount of organic matter, Binder burn-out was must be carried out before ball milling for preparing the casting slip. Binder burn-out was accomplished at $600^{\circ}C$ for 10 hours. Ball milling was performed with 5mm zirconia ball and 60mm polyethylene bottle. From 0% to 5% at 1% intervals of alumina was added to zirconia powder for preparing slip. Solid casting was achieved with plaster mold. Cast bodies were dried and sintered at $1,500^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Linear shrinkage, apparent porosity, water absorption, bulk density, and flexural strength were tested. Microstructures were observed by SEM, EDS and XRD analysis were executed. Results: Optimum slips for casting was prepared with 300g ball, 100g powder, and 180g distilled water. Cast body without alumina showed 26% of linear shrinkage, 6.07 of apparent density, and 470MPa of three point bend strength. On the other hand, as received zirconia block, which was sintered at the same conditions, showed 23% of linear shrinkage, 6.10 of apparent density, and 680MPa of three point bend strength. When 3% of alumina was added to zirconia, sintered body showed 23% of linear shrinkage, 6.10 of apparent density, and 780MPa of three point bend strength. SEM photomicrographs and EDS analysis showed alumina particles uniformly dispersed in zirconia matrix, and XRD analysis showed no phase transformation of tetragonal zirconia particles was occurred when alumina was added. Conclusion: According to the all of this experimental results, 3% of alumina added cast zirconia body showed excellent mechanical properties more than as received binder containing zirconia block.

A headspace gas chromatographic mass spectrometric (GC-MS) assay method was developed for the simultaneous determination of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), $tert$-butyl alcohol (TBA) and benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylene (BTEX) in soil contaminated with gasoline. 2 g of soil sample were placed in a 10 mL headspace vial filled with 5 mL of phosphoric acid solution (pH 3) saturated with NaCl, and the solution was spiked with fluorobenzene as an internal standard and sealed with a cap. The vial was heated in a heating block for 40 min at $80^{\circ}C$. The detection limits of the assay were 0.08-0.12 ${\mu}g$/kg for the analytes. For five independent determinations at 10 and 50 ${\mu}g$/kg, the relative standard deviations were less than 10%. The method was used to analyze fifty six soil samples collected from various regions contaminated with gasoline in Korea. The developed method may be valuable for the monitoring of the analytes in soil.

The objective of this study is to propose an experimental calibration facility in which a heat flux sensor can be calibrated under conductive condition by using helium gas. The heat flux calibration facility was designed, simulated and manufactured for use in a high heat transfer condition. It delivers heat fluxes up to a maximum of 35 KW $m^{-2}$. A copper block heated electrically with 3.5 KW power is designed to produce uniform temperature up to 600 K across its face. High heat fluxes are provided between hot plate and cold plate by 1 mm height helium filled gap. A cold plate is maintained around 300 K through pool boiling using a refrigerant and water-cooled heat exchanger. A simulation was conducted to verify the design of the main test section. To verify the performance of calibration facility, a heat flux sensor was examined. The measured heat fluxes were compared to the calculated one.

This study evaluated shear bond strength between porcelain and resin cement according to various surface treatments of porcelain, and surface condition of debonded porcelain. 50 porcelain specimens(Celay block A2M7) and composite resin specimens(Clearfil Photo-Bright) were prepared, and divided into 5 experimental groups according to the treatment method of porcelain surface. 5 experimental groups by surface treatments were as follows; CONTROL Group : No surface treatment was done on the surface of porcelains. SAND Group : The surface of porcelains were sandblasted with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide for 5 seconds. HF Group: The surface of porcelains were etched with 8% Hydrofluoric acid for 4 minutes. SIL Group: The surface of porcelains were coated with silane coupling agent and heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. SAND+HF+SIL Group : The surface of porcelains were sandblasted with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide for 5 seconds and etched with 8% Hydrofluoric acid for 4 minutes, and coated with silane coupling agent and heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. After surface treatments on the prepared porcelain surface two pastes of Panavia 21$^{(R)}$ were mixed, they were applied between composite resin block and porcelain surface, and then excessive resin cements were removed, and its margin was surrounded with Oxyguard II. All specimens were stored for 24 hours in water at $37^{\circ}C$ and tested with Instron testing machine between porcelains and resin cements, and debonded porcelain surfaces were observed under Scanning Electon Microscope(Hitachi S-2300) at 20kvp. The values from each group were compared statistically by Student's t-test. The obtained results were as follows; 1. The shear bond strength without surface treatment of porcelain was the lowest among all experimental groups(p<0.05). 2. The detached porcelain surface with sandblasting alone had more remarkable cracks than with only Hydrofluoric Acid or Silane coupling 2gent, but showed the lowest value of shear bond strength among surface treated groups(p<0.05), 3. When porcelain surface was treated by hydrofluoric acid, it affected shear bond strength more than silane coupling agent, but there were no significant statistical differences(p>0.05). 4. When three methods were combined to increase shear bond strength between porcelains and resin cements, its value was the highest than the others(p<0.05). 5. In Scannig Electron Micrograph of detached porcelain surface with no treatment, the sample revealed adhesive failure between the porcelain and resin cement whereas detached porcelain surface with combination of three method cohesive failure on the porcelain.

The flow boiling heat transfer of water was experimentally investigated on plain and sintered microporous surfaces in a mini-channel. The effects of microporous coating on flow boiling heat transfer of subcooled water were investigated in a 300 mm long mini-channel with a cross section of $20{\times}10mm^2$. The test section has sufficiently long entrance length of 300 mm which provides a fully-developed flow before the channel inlet. The bottom side of the channel was heated by a copper block assembled with a high-density cartridge heater and other sides of the channel were insulated. The microporous surface was fabricated by sintering copper particles with the average particle size of $50{\mu}m$ on the top side of the copper block. Heat transfer measurement was conducted at the mass flux of $208kg/m^2s$ and the heat flux up to $500kW/m^2$. Microporous coated surface showed an earlier boiling incipience compared with plain surface regardless of the mass flux. Microporous coating were significantly attributed to local wall temperature and local heat transfer coefficient for flow boiling.
