Characteristics of the direct thermal nitrided films by RF induction heating has been studied. The nitrided films on Si were prepared at 1000-1200\ulcorner in ammonia gas ambient. The nitrided films were analyzed by ellipsometry an Auger electron spectroscopy. I-V and C-V characteristics of MIS capacitors fabricated using nitrided film were investicated. The nitrided films were grown up mostly within initial thirty minutes and no significant growth was observed thereafter. Etch rates of films were about 1\ulcornermin in diluted HF (HF:H2O= 1:50). The nitrided films were resistant to dry and wet oxidations at temperatures below 1000\ulcorner and 900\ulcorner, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the heat transfer characteristics and the flow structure in the case of rectangular air jet impinging vertically on the flat heating surface. The maximum value of Nusselt number at stagnation point is observed at H/B=10. It is found that this trend has been caused by the effect of stretching of large scale vortex in the stagnation region. For potential core region the Nusselt number distribution in the downstream of the stagnation point decreases gradually and begins to increase at about X/B=3. From the flow visualization it could be seen that small eddy produced from the nozzle edge grows in large scale and that large scale eddy disturbed the thermal boundary layer on the heating plate. The local average Nusselt number becomes maximum at X/B=0.5 regardless of H/B variation.

The discharge characteristics of a prototype ion source was investigated, which was developed and upgraded for the NBI (Neutral Beam Injection) heating system of KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research). The ion source was designed for the arc discharge of magnetic bucket chamber with multi-pole cusp fields. The ion source was discharged by the emission-limited mode with the control of filament heating voltage. The maximum ion density was 4 times larger than the previous discharge controlled by a space-charge-limited mode with fully heated filament. The plasma (ion) density and arc current were proportional to the filament voltage, but the discharge efficiency was inversely proportional to the operating pressure of hydrogen gas. The maximum ion density and arc current were obtained with constant arc voltage ($80{\sim}100V$), as $8{\times}10^{11}cm^{-3}$ and 1200 A, respectively. The estimated maximum beam current was about 35 A, extracted by the accelerating voltage of 80kV.

Electric mosquito repellent mats can be ignited by damage of cables, partial disconnection, overload. tracking and so on. In this study, we examined the structure of mosquito repellent mat, positive temperature coefficient(PTC) thermistor, used for heating element and phenomenological characteristics of remains, obtained on the scene of fires. After reappearance ignition test of PTC thermistors, we did comparison analysis them. And we could confine that the feature of heating plate and the shape of bursting were same.

Numerical analysis code has been developed to investigate the slab heating characteristics in a reheating furnace of a steel mill company. Unsteady 3-Dimensional behaviour can be predicted with the developed code. Premixed flame model is adopted for combustion phenomena and eddy dissipation model is used for turbulent combustion. Non -gray FVM radiation method is used to get a better accurate radiative solution. Slab movement can be fully traced from entrance into a reheating furnace until it#s exit and computation is performed during that period.

In this study, we describe comparison of insulation characteristics of polyamid papers with heating conditions. The partial discharge behavior until breakdown and breakdown strength for thermal degradation films are observed in $SF_6$ gas chamber. The four layered NOMEX films of thickness of 50${\mu}m$ were used as solid insulation films and the sphere of which diameter is 40mm to sphere electrode system was used and each insulation films were inserted between sphere electrodes. The used gas pressure was 1.0bar and used temperature was each of 250$^{\circ}C$, 270$^{\circ}C$, 300$^{\circ}C$, 320$^{\circ}C$, 350$^{\circ}C$ and the voltage were applied until breakdown films.

A half bridge time sharing type high frequency resonant inverter to give VVVF function in the inverter used as power source of induction heating at high frequency is presented in this paper, this paper also realize the output control of independence irrespective of the switching frequency using Phase-Shift. The analysis of the proposed circuit is generally described by using the normalized parameters. Also, the principle of basic operation and the its characteristics are estimated by the parameters, such as switching frequency, the variation of phase angle(${\varphi}$) of Phase-Shift. It is certain that the proposed circuit will be used and expanded in the high frequency power supplies like induction heating systems.

The aim of this study is to define the condition of optimal pre-treatment for preferable activated carbon fibers (ACFs), which are based on rayon fibers. This paper shows the ideal path of ACFs preparation process; implies that rayon fibers are pre-treated by various solvents with different times before the heating process. The pre-treated rayon fibers finally turned into desirable rayon fiber-based ACFs through optimal pre-treatment condition by heating processes. The thermal analysis method of pre-treated rayon fibers by thermo-gravimetry analyser (TGA) is an idealized tool, which analyzes the best thermal condition of pre-treatment process. Surface morphologies of resulting rayon fibers based ACFs were examined by scanning electron microscope(SEM). The results of TGA and SEM analyses show that the optimal pre-treatment condition for preparing ACFs was clearly defined, in terms of thermal stability and surface morphology.

This paper proposes a radiation model, which considers radiation transport as an important component in hot gas analysis. This radiation model is derived from combining the method of partial characteristics (MPC) with net emission coefficient (NEC), and it covers the drawbacks of existing models. Subsequently, using this proposed model, the arc-flow interaction in an arcing chamber can be efficiently computed. The arc is represented as an energy source term composed of ohmic heating and the radiation transport in the energy conservation equation. Ohmic heating term was computed by the electric field analysis within the conducting plasma region. Radiation transport was calculated by the proposed radiation model. Also, in this paper, radiation models were introduced and applied to the gas circuit breaker (GCB) model. Through simulation results, the efficiency of the proposed model was confirmed.

In this study, thermal-treatment-derived variations of the thermoelectric characteristics of ZnO nanofibers (NFs) are examined. NFs that were prepared by electrospinning were transformed into n-type ZnO NFs after they were exposed to thermal heating for 30 min at 550℃. For the ZnO NFs, the Seebeck coefficient decreased from - 132.1 μV/K to - 44.6 μV/K over the heating-time range of 30 min to 120 min, while the electrical conductivity increased from 2.07 × 10^-3 S/m to 0.18 S/m.
