This paper was studied on corrosion of heat exchanger tube for absorption refrigeration machine. In the 62 % lithium bromide solution at $60^{\circ}C$, polarization test of Cu, Al-brass, 10 % cupro nickel(90-10 % Cu-Ni) and 30 % cupronickel(70-30 % Cu-Ni) tube was carried out. And polarization behavior, polarization resistance characteristics, open circuit potential, anodic polarization of heat exchanger tube for absorption refrigeration machine were considered. The main results are as following: The open circuit potential of Al-brass tube becomes less noble than that of Cu tube, corrosion current density of that becomes lower than Cu tube. The open circuit potential of cupronickel tube is more noble than that of Cu tube, corrosion current density of that is controlled than Cu tube. The passivation critical current of 30 % Cu-Ni tube is lower than that of 10 % Cu-Ni tube, potential of passive region of that is more wide than 10 % Cu-Ni tube.

In this study, the experimental open-tube and close-tube thermoacoustic apparatuses were built. In order to determine the optimum length of resonant tube and the optimum length of stack, the resonant characteristics of thermoacoustic apparatuses were investigated, The length of resonant tube varies from 400mm to 850mm. The experimental frequency varies from 100Hz to 1000Hz. In case of the second and third harmonics, the maximum temperature difference of open-tube thermoacoustic apparatus is 53$^{\circ}C$ (resonator length: 400mm) and the maximum temperature difference of closed-tube thermoacoustic apparatus is 51$^{\circ}C$ (resonator length: 500mm). In the open-tube thermoacoustic apparatus, the peak efficiency point is about 2%, 55%, 69% in the resonant tube and in the closed-tube thermoacoustic apparatus, the peak efficiency point is about 2%, 41%, 50% in the resonant tube.

The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the noise propagating characteristics, the noise reduction mechanism and the performance of a slotted tube attached at the exit plane of a circular convergent nozzle. The experiment is performed through the systematic change of the jet pressure ratio and the slot length under the condition of two kinds of open area ratios, 25% and 51%. The open area ratio calculated by the tube length equivalent for the slot length is defined as the ratio of the total slot area to the surface area of a slotted tube. The experimental results for the near and far field sound, the visualization of jet structures and the static pressure distributions in the jet passing through a slotted tube are presented and explained in comparison with those for a simple tube. The propagating characteristics of supersonic jet noises from the slotted tube is closely connected with the slot length rather than the open area ratio, and its propagating pattern is similar to the simple tube. It is shown that the slotted tube has a good performance to suppress the shock-associated noise as well as the turbulent mixing noise in the range of a limited jet pressure and slot dimension. The considerable suppression of the shock‘associated noise is mainly due to the pressure relief caused by the high-speed jets passing through the slots on the tube. Both the strength of shock waves and the interval between them in a jet plume are decreased by the pressure relief. Moreover, the pressure relief is divided into the gradual and the sudden relief depending upon the open area ratio of the slotted tube. Consequently, the shock waves in a jet plume are also changed by the type of pressure relief. The gradual pressure relief caused by the slotted tube with the open area ratio 25% generates the weak oblique shock waves. On the contrary, the weak normal shock waves appear due to the sudden pressure relief caused by the slotted tube with the open area ratio 51%.

In this study, The experimental open-tube-type and close-tube-type thermoacoustic refrigerator were constructed. The resonant characteristics of a thermoacoustic refrigerator were investigated. In order to determine the optimum resonant tube length and frequency, We changed the length of resonant tube from 400mm to 850mm and the frequency from 100Hz to 1000Hz. In case of first harmonic, the temperature difference of open-tube-type (1/4 wave) refrigerator was $41^{\circ}C$(resonator length :500mm). The temperature difference of close-tube-type (1/2 wave) refrigerator was $43^{\circ}C$(resonator length :850mm). In this experiments, the experimental 1/2 wave refrigerator is slightly cooler than the experimental l/4 wave refrigerator.

An experimental study using the combustor with branch tube was conducted in order to model the industry combustor with FGR (flue gas recirculation) system and to study a thermo-acoustic instability generated by a branch tube. The branch tube is a structure used to modify a system geometry and then to change its pressure field, and the thermo-acoustic instability, usually occurs in a confined geometry, can result in serious problems on industrial combustors. Thus understanding of the instability created by modifying geometry of combustor is necessary to design and operate combustor with FGR system. Pressure fluctuation in the combustion chamber was observed according to diameter and length of branch and it was compared with the solution of 1-D wave equation. It was found that branch tube affects the pressure field in the combustion chamber, and the pressure fluctuation in the combustion chamber was reduced to almost zero when phase difference between an incipient wave in the combustion chamber and a reflected wave in the branch tube is $\pi$ at the branch point. Also, the reduction of pressure fluctuation is irrespective of the installed height of branch tube if it is below $h^*=0.9$ in the close-open tube and open-open tube.

The present study addresses the distortion of the compression wave reflected from an open end of a shock tube. An experiment is carried out using the simple shock tube with an open end Computational work is also performed to represent the experimented flows. The second-order Total Variation Diminishing scheme is employed to numerically solve the unsteady, axisy-mmetric, inviscid, compressible governing equations. Both the experimented and predicted results are in good agreement. The generation and development mechanisms of the compression wave, which Is reflected from the open end of the shock tube, are obtained in detail from the present computations. The effect of size of the baffle plate at the open-end that causes the reflection of the incident expansion wave is found negligible. A good correlation is obtained for transition of the reflected compression wave to a shock wave inside the tube. The present data show that for a given wave length of the incident expansion wave the transition of the reflected compression wave to a shock wave can be predicted with good accuracy.

Zinc diffusion characteristics and its applicabilities have been studied using an open-tube system. Thermal decomposition of arsenide(As) at gallium arsenide(GaAs) wafer surface was well inhibited by using Ga: poly-GaAs: Zn compositon as a diffusion source. Junction depth was obtained as 4.6x10**7\ulcorner exp)-1.25/kT) where activation energy of diffusion was 1.25eV. From Boltzmann-matano analysis, it could be identified that concentration dependencies of Zn diffusivity well consisted with those of kick-out model. The ideality factor of p+-n junction formed by Zn diffusion was about 1.6 and infrared light intensity was linearly varied in the range of sixty folds. It is concluded frodm these results that Zn diffuses according to kick-out model, and open-tube method is applicable to compound semiconductor devices.
