Combustion characteristics of a gas generator for a 30 ton-class liquid rocket engine were studied. At the early stage of development, the combustion tests of the gas generator were performed by only using the nozzle which substitute for a turbine manifold exit. Then, the extension tube was applied between the gas generator and the nozzle for imitating the resonant mode of gas generator and turbine manifold. Finally, the hot-firing tests were performed on the condition of connecting the gas generator with the turbine manifold. In the paper, the step-by-step results such as temperature distribution and pressure fluctuations were analyzed.

Background and Objectives : Voice therapy has been used as a viable adjuvant to surgery and pharmacological therapy fir the management of voice disorders. The singing voice features a special brand of emotion, intensity, and energy so successful therapeutical approach requires the doctor is able to involve himself into the physical and psychic condition and artistic usage of the voice. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect and utility of singing therapy as an initial treatment for classically trained singers with voice disorders. Material and method : Twenty-one male and fifty-five female classic singers with voice disorders were treated with singing therapy. At first, abdominal breathing, resonant phonation, and relaxation method was trained, then after accessing each patient's singing abilities, treatment methods for each specific problems was applied. The results were compared according to age, sex, treatment duration, part, laryngeal pathology, patient subjective evaluation, perceptual evaluation of voice, and maximal phonation time. Results : Patients subjective evaluation, perceptual evaluation, pathologic findings of larynx, maximal phonation time showed superior results after singing therapy. Conclusion : Singing therapy changes the mode of respiration and phonation and enhances the vocal function and improves the laryngeal pathology, The result of this study indicate that singing therapy is an effective treatment method that laryngologists can use for classical singers with voice disorders.

The present study employs experimental approach to identify combustion stability characteristics of fuel-rich gas generators. The gas generator of interest, fueled by LOx and Jet A-1, experienced combustion instability coupled to a longitudinal resonant mode of the combustion chamber at about 1200 Hz. The occurrence of instability is strongly associated with acoustic boundary condition at the exit .and axial location of maximum heat release. As a result, stretching heat release zone in the axial direction by increase of the fuel nozzle diameter has dramatically stabilized combustion.

The aim of this study is to suppress the high-frequency combustion instability by acoustic absorption through swirl injector with variable air core length. In the previous study, acoustic damping effects on air core (length, shape, volume) and location of the injector in a model chamber were investigated. Through previous results, our study has advanced to the effect of tuned multi-injectors. From the experimental data, it is proved that increasing of numbers of injectors mounted each anti-node point can increase acoustic damping effect. Also, when tuned injectors at 1L, 1T, 1L1T modes simultaneously are installed each anti-node point of model chamber, damping effect of tuned injectors with multi modes is well agreed with it of tuned injectors with single mode.

The study for developments and economics about the energies from the global warming is very active. For the effective saving and the spanning of the life extension about the 19% rates for the illumination system spending power about the whole electric energies, we proposed the new type of the current control method using a mixing system of the frequency modulation together with the pulse width modulation for the half-bridge power instrument. And we proved the excellence and the stability for our suggested system and analyzed the characteristics.

Si nanowires have exhibited unique optical characteristics, including nano-antenna effects due to the guided mode resonance, significant optical absorption enhancement in wide wavelength and incident angle range due to resonant optical modes, graded refractive index, and scattering. Since Si poor optical absorption coefficient due to indirect bandgap, all such properties have stimulated proposal of new optoelectronic devices whose performance can surpass that of conventional planar devices. We have carried out finite-difference time-domain simulation studies to design optimal Si nanowire array for solar cell applications. Optical reflectance, transmission, and absorption can be calculated for nanowire arrays with various diameter, length, and period. From the absorption, maximum achievable photocurrent can be estimated. In real devices, serious recombination loss occurring at the surface states is known to limit the photovoltaic performance of the nanowire-based solar cells. In order to address such issue, we will discuss how the geometric parameters of the array can influence the spatial distribution of the optical field (resulting optical generation rate) in the nanowires.

The solution for PFC(Power Factor Correction), as a regulation in energy Policy, is becoming a hot Issue in every country because of the shortage of electrical energy. Therefore, a new improved idea for PFC problem has been introduced in this study. A lot of merits, effective cost by simple circuit, reduced PCB size, lighter than reactor in the view of weight, lower level of screen noise by leakage inductance in CTV applications, have been stated by comparing to the earlier method of using a Reactor. All test results in this statement were done by using a power device of STR-G9600 series based on the real load condition of color television. furthermore, the study shows that the test results also meets the IEC-1000-3-2 class D, which regulates the PFC when input power of a set is more than 75watts. More improved PFC in other applications hopes to be implemented by using the proposed method.

Bolt-tightened Langevin type vibrators using longitudinal mode of bar were designed and fabricated. In order to amplify the displacement of the tip of the vibrators, stacked ceramics were used and five different shapes of the horns were designed and fabricated. Resonant frequencies and vibrational characteristics of vibrators and horns were analyzed by ANSYS(finite element analysis computer program), and the displacements of tips of the horns were measured. As results, when the number of the stacked ceramics were increased, the displacements of the tips were increased and the driving voltages were decreased. Step1 horn(BLT-Stl) showed maximum displacement of 36.92[${\mu}m$] at 36.7[kHz] with 45[Vrms] and 0.11[A]. The displacement amplification ratio was about 5.2. But, the stress of step1 horn was concentrated on intersection, where two diameters meet. To lessen the stress, step3 shaped horn is recommended.

In mobile phones of multimedia era, microspeakers of high qualify sound are essential parts to generate human voice in speaker phone and MP3 song player. In this paper, two types of microspeakers, outer permanent magnet (PM) and combined PM type, are analyzed using electromagnetic, mechanical and their coupling analysis. For performance comparison, voice coil diameter is chosen as a design parameter to change excitation position and magnet volume for both types. For combined PM type, sound pressure level (SPL) is improved due to increased PM volume compared to outer PM type. Also, with the decreased voice coil diameter for combined PM type, the 1st resonant mode of the diaphragm is more efficiently excited due to concentrative excitation, resulting in lower and broader frequency range. Therefore, it can be said that the combined PM type microspeakers are more advantageous for high performance microspeaker which are essential for multimedia era.
