A spent fuel problem has prevented the nuclear power from claiming to be a completely clean energy source. The nuclear transmutation technology to incinerate the long lived radioactive nuclides and produce energy during the incineration process is believed to be one or the best solutions. HYPER(Hybrid Power Extraction Reactor) is the accelerator driven transmutation system which is being developed by KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute). Some major feature of HYPER have been developed and employed. On-power fueling concepts are employed to keep system power constant with minimum variation of accelerator power. A hollow cylinder-type metal fuel is designed for the on-line refueling concept. Lead-bismuth(Pb-Bi) is adopted as a coolant and Spallation target material. HYPER is a subcritical reactor which needs an external neutron source. 1GeV proton beam is irradiated to Lead-bismuth(Pb-Bi) target inside HYPER, and spallation neutrons are produced. When proton beams are irradiated, much heat is also deposited in the Pb-Bi target and beam window which separates Pb-Bi and accelerator vacuum. Therfore, an effective cooling is needed for HYPER target. In this paper, we performed the thermal-hydraulic analysis of HYPER target using FLUENT code, and also calculated thermal and mechanical stress of the beam window using ANSYS code.

We have modified the isolated perfused working rabbit lung model [IPWL] by perfusing the isolated lung with a hollow fiber membrane deoxygenator.For assessment the stored lung was ventilated with FIO2 0.4 and perfused with 37$^{\circ}$C deoxygenated circulating blood at a rate 5ml/kg/min for several hours until lung failure.We chose to compare our developing solution which contained low potassium and pentastarch with the modified Euro-Collins solution .Experiments were divided into four groups[n=6] based on the type of flushing preservation solution and preservation time.The flushed lungs were then preserved into same solution at 8~10$^{\circ}$C with 100% O2 inflated condition for 1 or 20 hours.These following results were obtained.The IPWL model requires only one animal per experiment and allows for the continuous assessment of aerodynamic performance. This should therefore be used as screening test in lung preservation.One hour preservation groups, there were no significant difference in recovery rates of PaO2, PAP and Paw. Survival time in the one hour preservation groups were very significant long in the Group II[LPPS, p<0.01]. Twenty hours preservation groups, there were no significant difference in the recovery rates of PAP and Paw between Group III[m-ECS] and Group IV[NS], but PaO2 was significantly worse at onset of reperfusion in Group III when compared with Group IV [p<0.05]. And also survival time in the 20 hours preservation groups were significant long in the Group IV [p<0.05].

This paper deals with optimum design of surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) for automotive component. For a compact system structure, it was designed as a motor with a 14-pole 12-slot concentrated winding and hollow shaft. The motor is a thin type structure which stator outer diameter is relatively large compared to its axial length and is designed to have a high magnetic saturation for increasing the torque density. Since the high magnetic saturation in the stator core increases the axial leakage flux, a 3-dimensional (3-D) finite element analysis (FEA) is indispensable for torque analysis. However, optimum designs using 3-D FEA is inefficient in terms of time and cost. Therefore, equivalent 2-D FEA which is able to consider axial leakage flux is applied to the optimization to overcome the disadvantages of 3-D FEA. The structure for cost reduction is proposed and optimum design using equivalent 2-D FEA has been performed.

A theoretical analysis is carried out to predict the characteristics of transient ignition phenomena for the spherical fuel droplets cloud with non-uniform droplet size and number density distribution. Numerical calculations are performed for various cases depending on the combinations of the major parameters such as ambient temperature and initial distributions of droplet size and number density. The results of present study show that the ignition delay decreases for higher ambient temperature and smaller droplet size. Droplets cloud of hollow type with outer concentrated distribution ignites most rapidly.

A combination separation system is composed of three parts, simple microfiltration unit for the pretreatment of real waste IPA, pervaporation unit with plate and frame type module(the effective membrane area 9,040$cm^2$), and simple ultrafiltration unit as a refiner. Utrafiltration module with hollow fiber membrane(MWCO 10,000) used to purify waste aqueous IPA solution. In addition, the flux of $CMPA-K^+$ composite membrane for waste aqueous IPA solution was very steady-state with long experiment time(30 days). And the standard deviation($\sigma$) was 0.152 and then the coefficient of variation($CV\%$)was 10.82 The IPA concentration on the membrane performance using pervaporation module system could be increased from $89.85wt(\%)$ to more than $99.90wt\%$ in about 8hr at operation temperature of $70^{\circ}C$ using the pervaporation module system. Therefore, a combination separation process system of simple filtration and pervaporation was very effective for the purpose of the IPA purification and reuse front industrial electronic components cleaning process.

Anisotropic pitch-based C-type and hollow carbon fibers can obtain wider shear stresses during the spinning and induce higher molecular orientation than that of round along the fiber axis. These fibers reinforced unidirectional epoxy composites were prepared by hot-press moulding method and perpendicular and parallel thermal conductivities of the composites were measured by a steady-state meth od. In the case of round carbon fibers reinforced epoxy composites(H-CF/EP), thermal anisotropic factor showed nearly 50, while those of H-CF/EP and C-CF/EP showed about 130 and 118, respectively. As a result, both H-CF/EP and C-CF/EP had an excellent directional thermal conductivity to distribute heat, above 200 %.

Centrifugal casting is suitable for producing hollow-products using centrifugal force. Bush type metal bearings are the key parts that facilitate the rotational movement of various machinery. Metal bearings produced by conventional centrifugal casting machines show rotational imbalance. Therefore, after injecting a large amount of material, the product's precision is secured in the secondary processing. Rotational imbalance is caused by the force acting on the rotary disc plate. In order to minimize rotational imbalance, NASTRAN was used for the optimal design and structural analysis. It was concluded that the rotating plate of the conventional centrifugal casting machine should be prevented from tilting. For this purpose, the location & thickness of the stiffeners were obtained through the optimum design. In the conventional centrifugal casting machine, both ends of the product are lower in temperature than the center part, so internal stress occurs. This solves this problem by inserting a heating coil into the rotating plate.

Purpose: Autogenous particulate bone grafting is a type of autogenous bone graft that consists of small particles of cortical and cancellous bone. Autogenous particulate bone grafting has been used for calvarial bone defect after calvarial defect of craniosynostosis and prevention of temporal depression after fronto-orbital advancement. The results were followed up and studied for effectiveness of autogenous calvarial particulate bone grafting. Methods: Cranial vault remodeling and fronto-orbital advancement was performed for six craniosynostosis patient from August 2005 to October 2007. Autogenous particulate bone grafting was harvested from endocortex of separated cranial vault and if insufficient, from extocortex of occipital region using Hudson brace & D'Errico craniotomy bit and was grafted on the calvarial bone defect of cranial vault and temporal hollow. Fibrin glues were added to the harvested particulated bone for adherence and shaping of paticles. Results: Autogenous particulate bone grafting was followed-up at least longer than I year. The calvarial bony defects following primary cranial remodeling were successfully covered and postoperative temporal depressions after fronto-orbital advancement were also well prevented by grafted particulated bone. Conclusion: Autogenous calvarial particulate bone graft can be harvested in infants and young children with minimal donor site morbidity. It effectively heals cranial defects in children and during fronto-orbital advancement reduces the prevalence of osseous defects independent of patient age. It's easy and effective method of reconstruction of calvarial defect.

Electro-Rheological(ER) fluids undergo a phase-change when subjected to an external electic field, and this phase-change typically manifests itself as a many-order-of-magnitude change in the rheological behavior. This phenomenon permits the global stiffness and energy- dissipation properties of the beam structures to be tuned in order to synthesize the desired vibration characteristics. This paper reports on a proof-of-concept experimental investigation focussed on evaluation the vibration properties of hollow cantilevered beams filled with an ER fluid. and consequently deriving an empirical model for predicting field-dependent vibration characteristics. A hydrous-based ER fluid consisting of corn starch and silicone oil is employed. The beams are considered to be uniform viscoelastic materials and modelled as a viscously-damped harmonic oscillator. Natural frequency, damping ratio and elastic modulus are evaluated with respect to the electric field and compared among three different beams: two types of different volume fraction of ER fluid and one type of different particle concentration of ER fluid by weight. Transient and forced vibration responses are examined in time domain to demonstrate the validity of the proposed empirical model and to evaluate the feasibility of using the ERfluid as an actuator in a closed-loop control system.
