Basic function of calorifier system is to supply warm water to the vessel. The heater used in the calorifier system plays a very important role in its reliability. The failure mechanism of heater are compared with accelerated life test. The main cause of failed heater is pitting corrosion occurred between the surface of heater and spacer. To prevent the corrosion failure from heater, material of spacer replaces metal(SUS 304) with polymer (Acryl). The life of redesigned heater can guarantee 2.47years of B10 life under the worst condition.

The Korean government had enacted 'Special Regulation on the Safe Maintenance of Facilities' and carried out regular safety inspections since the mid-1990s, consequently establishing and enforcing an effective maintenance and management system. And throughout this entire process, the government searched for new methods to increase the overall effectiveness of the system. Nevertheless, the reality is that our society remains structurally unprepared to implement a commercial mindset that views the concept of "safety" as a product that can be traded in the open market based on supply and demand. Therefore, the government should establish mid to long-term plans to implement such a system in successive stages.

This paper improves the autonomy for supplier's schedule and the flexibility of the final assembly line. The final assembly line is a single work station and each product taking different assembly time is considered. In the assembly schedule, the heuristic method based on the goal chasing method is used. Consequently, suppliers can independently determine their output rates and thus, change their workload pattern according to their needs and priorities. Moreover, this flexibility can help to avoid expensive final-assembly-line stoppages in case of sudden part supply disruptions. The sequencing method can be easily implemented into an existing just-in-time system. In addition, the mathematical model was formulated and the algorithm was explained through the flow chart. The numerical example was given and the efficiency of this method is shown through the analysis of computational results of that example.

Small wind turbines are becoming a viable technology option to supply electricity to landowners. These systems provide energy security, product relatively no environmental harm, and in an appropriate setting can be quite cost-competitive with traditional electricity options. This paper is dealing with the methods how to overcome such inconvenience and with the analysis of characteristic and a field test with a prototype of the stand alone wind turbine was performed. The method applies to small systems, equipped with a coreless axial-flux permanent magnet(AFPM) generator in the turbine, a dc-dc converter and batteries. The analysis concentrates on the effect of the load on the power-wind speed curve of the turbine. The system is designed for direct driven, coupled with turbine and generator with a rated power of, 3kW.

This paper described the development of technology for LRT (Light Rail Transit) power system, which are sponsored by MOCT and supervised by KRRI. Especially, manufacture, interface between components and composition for DC Switchgear are focused. Most main components for DC switchgear(Protective Relay, HSCB, DS) are made by own. Also the type test report of international testing laboratory about the DC Switchgear based on IEC regulations is introduced. Finally the product will be proved based on field test.

In the ATs(Auto-Transformers)-fed AC electric railroad system, the trolley wire with high power is supported with a messenger by the dropper. As the dropper maintains the height of the trolley wire and plays a role in distributing the supply power, it should be stabilized in that an electric and mechanical character accord ins the change of the open air circumstance and constructed easily. Consequently, this paper propose C5111 Sn(3.5$\sim$4.5%) and hexagonal round bolt for the way of the efficient stabilization as a result of the test that the correlation of the Sn content and the change of temperature affect a character of product.

Most of automobile parts manufactured through sheet metal forming are mass-produced by using press mold. In recent years, automation and speeding up of press lines have been expanding to maximize product productivity using a press die. The proportion of the moving time in the press line is high, and therefore requires high-speed and automated equipment for the moving process. In this paper, to provide the double-moving system can be the moving time reduction and increased productivity. Developed transport system consists of the material supply, the material feeding device and the PLC controller and the devices are positioned between each of the pressing process. In this paper, the double-moving system including developed units using a multi-axial single-acting through this reduced the C/T(cycle time) and improved the productivity.

This paper presents a scheme for a hierarchical production scheduling and control system for a refrigerator factory with mixed model assembly lines. The setting of the factory is as follows. There are three mixed-model assembly lines called main line A, B and C and two batch lines that supply parts to the main lines. For each of the main lines, three work-centers are dedicated to them. The sub-lines and work-centers produce parts in batch type. An incoming production order from the master planner is characterized by its product type, amount, and due date. Under this situation, the proposed scheme has several features to schedule and control the above mentioned factory; 1) select the starting time and the place (assembly line) for an order processing, 2) devise a way to control orders to be processed as scheduled, and 3) reschedule orders when something unexpected happen. Finally, this paper provides a case study where the proposed scheme is applied to.

Microphytobenthos that supply nutrients to the intertidal ecosystem play an important part as a primary producer. If we estimate distribution and density of microphytobenthos, we can possibly calculate a volume of primary product in the tidal flat and its effect to the intertidal ecosystem. To estimate the portion of microphytobenthos, we used a linear spectral unmixing (LSU) method. LSU is a tool for inference the proportions of the pure components (or end-members) in a mixed pixel. The selection of end-members is critical to LSU. The end-members can be selected either from spectral libraries built from field surveys or from a remotely sensed image. We compared the two approaches of end-member selection, and the preliminary results showed end-members from from spectral library are as effective as those from image itself.
