The cover of truck agitator give in a part to prevent the lower flowing of fresh concrete when the concrete are transported from the ready mixed concrete plant to the construction field. As a result of the question data, it show up a dirty image to the general civil society. Due to the above image, it is predicted to affect the image of the construction company, so we did the site experiment of the flowing, the amounts of air, the temperature change of concrete with the concrete left in the site, to find out the usefulness. Also, for the comparing with this, we got the result by doing the inner experiment with the same condition. As the result of the experiment, the cover of truck agitator affect little to the reduction of slump. The change of the air amount, regardless of the existence of cover, was not effected much in proper level until 60minutes. In addition, The compression strength was proper to the goal design strength until 90minutes regardless of the cover of truck agitator exist or not exist.

It has recently been reported that methanol fuel has been used in the product carrier with established duel fuel engine, which has been greatly reducing emissions of $CO_2$, NOx and SOx from the engine. However, to use methanol alone as fuel oil in a general diesel engine, design modification of cylinder head is needed because the ignition aid device or the duel fuel injection system is needed. On the other hand, only if the mixer is installed on the fuel oil supply line, diesel oil - methanol blending oil can be used as fuel oil for the diesel engine, but there is a problem of the phase separation when two fuels are mixed. In this study, diesel oil and methanol were blended compulsorily in preventing the phase separation with installing agitators and a fuel oil boost pump on fuel line of a test engine. Also, cylinder pressure and fuel consumption quantity were measured according to engine load and methanol blending ratio, and indicated mean effective pressure, heat release rate and combustion temperature obtained from the single zone combustion model were analyzed to investigate the effects of latent heat of vaporization of methanol on combustion stability and characteristics. As a result, the combustion stability and characteristics of 10% methanol blending oil are closest to the those of diesel oil, and it could be used as fuel oil in existing diesel engines without deterioration of engine performance and combustion characteristics.

This paper presents a multiband octa-phase LC VCO for SDR receiver. Four identical LC VCOs are connected by using series coupling transistor to obtain the octa-phase signal and low phase noise characteristic. For a multiband application, a band tuning circuit that consists of a switch capacitor circuit and two MOS varactors is proposed. As the MOS switch is on/off state, the frequency range will be varied. In addition, two varactors make the VCO be immune to process variation of the oscillation frequency. The VCO is designed in 0.18-um CMOS technology, consumes 12mA current from 1.8V supply voltage and operates with a frequency band from 885MHz to 1.342GHz (41% tuning range). As driving sub-harmonic mixer, the proposed VCO covers 3 standards(CDMA 2000 1x, WCDMA, WiBro). The measured phase noise is -105dBc@100kHz, -115dBc@1MHz, -130dBc@10MHz for CDMA 2000 1x, WCDMA, WiBro respectively.

In this paper, we propose a RF front-end architecture based on hybrid conversion which is available to receive both broadband and multiband DVB-H receiver, and a multi-function circuit for implementing the RF front-end is fabricated. A multi-function circuit is operated as a sub-harmonic mixer mode in the case of receiving a broadband VHF/UHF band, which show a conversion loss of -10.0 dB, noise figure of 7.0 dB and IIP3 of 2.0 dBm. On the other hand, it is performed as a attenuation mode with a insertion loss of -10.0 dB in receiving a multiband, L-band.

In this paper, the multichannel intermediate frequency transceiver for broadband multimedia system is designed and the experimental results are analyzed. Basic elements of the transceiver such as frequency synthesizer, amplifier, mixer, automatic gain control amplifier are introduced. The analysis technique described here applies not only to amplifier but also to any other nonlinear components such as mixers and frequency doubler. Through the investigation of the power spectrum density of the transmitted signal, the phase noise of the local oscillator is evaluated below 70 dBc/kHz. The frequency characteristics of the modulated signal is flat within the system bandwidth. Also the effects of adjacent channel interference and supurious emission are analyzed. And the function of automatic gain control amplifier is well operated.

In this paper, we propose a mobile remicon quality management system to enable inspection and correspondence with a smart phone in the field check of remicon. We also proposed a real-time slump data processing part to digitize field inspection and XML formats for data exchange with the server. We used the smart phone to transmit real-time image about field inspection of remicon and judged the error at the same time. By doing this, we shared the situation of the remicon products in the field and the head office. Based on the actual results, the development technology is used to determine whether the product is abnormal or not, and to provide appropriate information to the company and the site. Based on the analysis of raw material quality data, it is possible to present real time optimal blending ratio according to raw material import with raw material management data, which is the biggest problem of the ready mixed concrete industry.

Mixing is a very important unit in water treatment process. A mechanical stirring method is generally used for mixing, but recently, the use of pressurized water mixing method (pump diffusion flash mixer) has gained interest because it is more advantageous in terms of mixing time, noise, energy consumption, and maintenance. The following conclusions were obtained from the study of pressurized water mixing method by Computational Fluid Dynamics. Firstly, the mixing degree in the pipe increased as the density of water increased. Secondly, even if the relative velocity between flow rate in the pipe and the pressurized water was constant, the mixing degree decreased as the flow velocity in the pipe increased. Thirdly, the stronger the injection energy the higher the mixing degree. It was also found that the mixing degree was greatly affected by the injection velocity as compared to the injection flow amount. Finally, the required energy to achieve 95% mixing degree at the distance of 10 times diameter in big pipes of 500 mm to 3000 mm was 0.3 to 4.5 kJ. The result of this study could be used in the process design of injection with water purification chemicals, such as, ozone, chlorine, and coagulant.

We have made the single side hand filter for the dual channel receiver which is a heterodyne receiver to observe the cosmic radio waves with 100GHz band ranged from 85GHz to 115GHz and 150GHz band ranged from 125GHz to 175GHz simultaneously. We have introduced the filter theory using the principle of the Martion-Puplett interferometer, which has the characteristics of rotated polarization. To reduce the loss of the transmission and beam coupling which are caused from the path difference associated with the intermediate frequency the design and the implementation have been intensely considered. The receiver needs two filters with different characteristics each other. Because each of them has the optimum positions as a function frequency at which the signal frequency is fed to mixer and the image frequency is rejected to the image termination load. The intermediate frequency and its band width have been also evaluated. We have measured the property of two filters using the vector network analyser and the beam measurement system which is made by us. The responses of the filter as a function of the position and the frequency are compared with the theory. It is shown that not only the measured values are very close to the theoretical values, but also the image rejection ratios are better than 22dB for both filters. Through successful observation using a dual channel receiver with two manufactured filters, the performance of the filters has finally verified.

The Geyoungju Ca-bentonite with dry density of 1.6 g/$cm^3$ has been considered as a standard buffer material for the disposal of high level waste in KAERI disposal system design. But it had relatively lower thermal conductivity compared with other surrounding materials, that was one of key parameters to limit the increase of the disposal density in the disposal system. In this study, various additives were selected and mixed with the Ca-bentonite in different mixing methods in order to increase the thermal conductivity from 0.8 W/mK to 1.0 W/mK. As an additive, CNT (Cabon Nano Tube), graphite, alumina, CuO, and $Fe_2O_3$ were selected, which are chemically stable and have good thermal conductivity. As mixing methods, dry hand-mixer mixing, wet milling and dry ball mill mixing were applied for the mixing. Above all, the ball mill mixing was proved to be most effective since the produced mixture was most homogeneous and showed higher increase in the thermal conductivity. From this study, it was confirmed that the thermal conductivity for the Geyoungju Ca-bentonite could be improved by adding small amount of highly thermal conductive material to 1.0 W/mk. In conclusion, it was believed that the experimental results will be valuable in the disposal system design if the additive effects on the swelling and permeability on the compact bentonite are also approved in further studies.

For the purpose of Application to the small radar sensor, the MMIC Chip, which is the core component of the W-band, was designed in Korea according to the characteristics of the transceiver and manufactured by 0.1㎛ GaAs pHEMT process, and compared with the MMIC chip purchased overseas. The noise figure of low noise amplifier, insertion loss of the switch and image rejection performance of the down-converted mixer MMIC chip showed better characteristics than those of commercial chips. The MMIC chip developed in domestic was applied to the transmitter and receiver through W-band waveguide low loss transition structure design and impedance matching to verify the performance after the fabrication is 9.17 dB, which is close to the analysis result. As a result, it is judged that the transceiver can be applied to the small radar sensor better than the MMIC chip purchased overseas.
