In designing $SF_6$ puffer circuit breakers, analyzing are behavior during current zero region and thermal recovery characteristics after current interrupt ion is very important. In this paper, a mathematical are model based on the integral method has been based to analyze them. The pressure rise in the puffer chamber and the distributions of pressure, density, velocity and enthalpy inside nozzle are calculated and analyzed at current zero region. The influence of fault current magnitude and change of di/dt at current zero on the interruption capability of puffer circuit breakers is investigated. Finally, the calculated results are compared with the available results from experiment.

Effects of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) on ovulation and spawning of the grass puffer, Takifugu niphobles, were investigated. Matured females spawned successfully by all doses of HCG. Spawning usually occurred 24 hours after hormone injection. Body weight of adult, gonadsomatic index (GSI), pseudo-GSI, body weight of spawned egg, success rate of spawn, fertilization rate, hatching rate, and survival rate of juvenile were correlated with increasing HCG doses. However, abnormal rate of juvenile was not correlated with increasing HCG doses. These results should be useful for developing aquaculture program of grass puffer.

A mathematical arc model based on the integral method has been developed to study the arc behaviour of $SF_6$ Puffer circuit breakers during high current period. The interaction between the compression chamber and the arc interrupter plays a critical role in determining the arc behaviour. Computations have been carried out for the puffer circuit breaker of Noeske et al.[1]. The aerodynamic behaviour and electrical characteristics of the puffer circuit breaker have been investigated. In addition, the pressure rise in the compression chamber and arc voltage have been computed and the results compared with the available experimental results of Noeske et al.[1]. Special attention has been paid to the presence of the shock.

Several of our recent studies have focused on mass production of the marine Cladoceran Diaphanosoma celebensis, which can serve as a feed substitute for Artemia nauplii in the culture of larval marine fish. We compared the growth and survival rates of tiger puffer Takifugu rubripes fed D. celebensis with those fed Artemia. The group fed D. celebensis showed an increase in growth from 0.10 g to 1.78 g, while the group fed enriched Artemia had a growth from 0.10 g to 0.92 g. The survival rate of fish fed D. celebensis was 86.7% while that of fish fed enriched Artemia was 51.1%, indicating that the former group was superior to the latter both in growth and survival rate. Fatty acid analysis revealed that D. celebensis fed Nannochloropsis oculata and Schizochytrium sp. had an eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) content of 16.42% and a docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) content of 3.93%. Meanwhile, juvenile tiger puffer fed D. celebensis had an EPA content of 9.12% and a DHA content of 10.69%. Juvenile tiger puffer fed D. celebensis had a similar n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acid content to that of tiger puffer fed enriched Artemia which had an EPA content of 5.82% and a DHA content of 15.90%, indicating that no additional enrichment was required.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of puffer fish under storage conditions. Free amino acids were identified in the order of taurine > alanine > lysine > leucine > glutamic acid > valine. Glutamic acid, lysine, histidine, arginine, proline, and aspartic acid increased over time and with increased temperature, and valine and tyrosine were affected by temperature. ATP decreased dramatically during 36 h of storage at $4^{\circ}C$, 24 h of storage at $12^{\circ}C$, and 16 h of storage at $20^{\circ}C$. IMP reached its highest level when puffer fish was stored for 36 h at 4 and $12^{\circ}C$ and 24 h at $20^{\circ}C$, and hypoxanthine levels grew steeply at 60 h at $4^{\circ}C$, 24 h at $12^{\circ}C$ and 20 h at $20^{\circ}C$. In terms of K value, the puffer fish was available for sliced raw fish within 60 h at $4^{\circ}C$, 24 h at $12^{\circ}C$ and 12 h at $20^{\circ}C$, and the fish can be taken in after cooking within 72 h at $4^{\circ}C$ and $12^{\circ}C$ and 36 h at $20^{\circ}C$. The physicochemical quality characteristics showed that puffer fish is available for sliced raw fish within 36 h at $4^{\circ}C$, 16 h at $12^{\circ}C$ and 12 h at $20^{\circ}C$, and that the fish can be taken after cooking within 72 h at $4^{\circ}C$ and $12^{\circ}C$ and 36 h at $20^{\circ}C$.

Totally, twenty seven specimens of tiger puffer, Fugu rubripes rubripes were collected at Jagalchi fish market in Pusan, Korea during January, April and September in 1995. Anatomical distribution of pufferfish toxin in tiger puffer was examined by mouse bioassay. The frequency rate of toxic specimens containing $\geq$ 10 MU/g was 14.8％ in liver; 16.7％ in gonad; and 14.8％ in skin, and no toxin was detected in muscle. The highest toxin level found was 160 MU/g in liver, 600 MU/g in gonad and 26 MU/g in skin, and each average toxin level (mean$\pm$ standard error) was 7$\pm$6, 50$\pm$35 and 5$\pm$1 MU/g, respectively. Some specimens collected in January and April were toxic, while none of the specimens collected in September showed its toxicity. Although toxicity of tiger puffer showed the seasonal variation, tested tiger puffer was evaluated as a safe seafood fur consumption, in that an acceptable level of toxin was found in the edible muscle and skin.

The data on outbreaks of puffer fish poisoning during 1991 to 2002 in Korea were gathered from press reports, and characterized information collected. During the period, a total of 32 outbreaks of puffer fish poisoning was reported. These outbreaks caused 111 persons to become poisoning, among the cases 30 persons were fatal. The mean case fatality rate was 27.0%, and most of deaths (93.3%) were the male of above 29 years old. Patient number of below 4 persons per a poisoning accident occupied 75.0% of total outbreaks; 65.8% of total cases; and 66.7% of total deaths) was occurred in the months, November through January. Most of puffer fish poisoning (75.0% of total outbreaks; 68.5% of total cases; and 73.3% of total deaths) were found along the south coastal area of Korea, including Busan, Gyeongsangnam-do, Jeollanam-do and Jeju-do. Over than 80% of puffer fish poisoning outbreaks occurred at fishing boat and home where privately made food was cause, and outbreaks in restaurants accounted for 15.6%. Most commonly implicated foods were Guk, boiled soup with puffer fish meat and spices.

The optimum salinity and the effects of rapid salinity change on oxygen consumption and ammonia nitrogen excretion were examined in River Puffer Takifugu obscrus (total length 9.5$\pm$0.9 cm, total weight 18.7$\pm$5.4 g). Fish examined at the different transfer medium salinity (2, 12, 22 and 32 psu) after 2 months of acclimation period at each salinities. The routine metabolic rates of River puffer are shown as parabola equation, $Y=-0.0873X^2+0.6384X-0.690$ for oxygen consumption and $Y=-2.1667X^2+7.1672X+31.999$ for ammonia nitrogen excretion with the salinity medium at 2, 12. 22 and 32 psu. The oxygen consumption and ammonia nitrogen excretion of River puffer trans-ferred to the low salinity medium (2 and 12 psu) showed significantly difference in each salinities rearing groups than to salinity of 22 and 32 psu. Fish has a diurnal rhythm in relate to feeding, it was showed that the peak of oxygen consumption appeared at 3 hours after feeding and the ammonia nitrogen excretion rate reached maximum 4 hours after feeding. These results may indicate that the optimum salinity for rearing of River puffer is 22 psu based on growth and feed conversion ratio. The rapid change of medium salinity had no effects on the oxygen consumption and nitrogen excretion in River puffer based on this experiment.

In the present study, we investigated the effects of food and salinity on growth and survival of river puffer, Takifugu obscurus offsprings in indoor land-based tank during the early development. In the food experiment, the river puffer larvae (TL 8.7$\pm$0.1 mm, BW 20.0$\pm$3.2 mg) were fed with tubificid, Limnodrilus gotoi, water flea, Daphnia carinata, mysid, Neomysis awatschensis, Manila clam, Ruditapes philippinarum and artificial food together Artemia nauplii for 30 days, and the growth and the survival of larvae were investigated. In the salinity experiment, the river puffer larvae and juvenile at three stages (Stage I: TL 5.8$\pm$0.4 mm; Stage II: TL 12.0$\pm$0.2 mm, Stage III： TL 44.5$\pm$0.7 mm) were supplied with Artemia nauplii, water flea and/or artificial food and were reared in 0, 10, 20 and 30 psu at respective stages. The results shows that the growth rates of larvae feeding with artificial food and tubificid together Artemia nauplii were higher than those of larvae in other groups, but the survival rates of larvae feeding with water flea and mysid together Artemia nauplii were higher than those of larvae in other groups. In salinity, the results shows that the growth and survival rates of offsprings were significantly higher in 10∼20 psu than those in 0 and 30 psu at Stage I and n. At Stage III, the growth and the survival rates were the highest in 20 psu, but the lowest in 0 psu. However, it should be noted that the rates in 0 and 30 psu were significantly enhanced at Stage III in comparison with those at Stage I and II. Therefore, it is concluded that river puffer, T. obscurus is euryhaline marine species, which can normally grow and live at salinities from 0 to 30 psu, and that a combinative supplement with Artemia nauplii and water flea, D. carinata may confer an advantage on growth and survival of the river puffer offsprings in indoor land-based tank.

To analyze the performance of the gas circuit breaker(GCB), the flow field variables such as temperature, pressure and density should be evaluated accurately In the puffer chamber of puffer type GCB, the pressure rise may Exceed 20 bar and in this range of high pressure, $SF_6$ gas deviates the ideal gas property. Therefore, the real gas property of $SF_6$ should be taken into consideration for the accurate analysis of flow field. This paper presents the analysis technique of cold gas flow in GCB employing the real gas state equation of SF6. The FVFLIC method is Employed to solve the axisymmetric Euler equation. To reduce the computational effort of real gas state equation, the relationship between density and pressure is approximated by the polynomial at the temperature of 300K. The proposed method is applied to the test GCB model and simulation results show good agreement with the experimental ones.
