  • The conversive limitation of electric energy for the thyristor inverter is analysed under the boundary conditions which the term of a negative inverse voltage is longer than that of the turn off time of the thyristor under commutation. It is clear that the maximum electric energy conversion is affected by the turn off time of the thyristor, the reactance of a commutation reactor, the capacity of a commutation condenser and the voltage of Direct current source. It is useful for design the thyrister invertor and the motor speed control to apply the above conclusion.

  • In the present approach, the flame-acoustics interaction is represented by FDF (Flame Describing Function) which is a important source term in the Helmholtz' equation. In this study, the combustion instability is analyzed by the forced mode strategy with the measured FDF. Numerical results indicate that the present approach reasonably well predicts the essential features of the combustion instability characteristics in the lean premixed combustor under the gas-turbine like environment.

  • Given the evolution of High-Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor(HTGR) designs, the source terms for licensing must be developed. There are three potential source terms: fission products, actinides in the fuel and tritium in the coolant. It is necessary to provide first an inventory of the source terms under normal operations. An analysis of source terms has yet to be performed for HTGRs. The previous code, which can estimate the inventory of the source terms for LWRs, cannot be used for HTGRs because the general data of a typical neutron cross-section and flux has not been developed. Thus, this paper uses a combination of the MCNP, ORIGEN, and MONTETEBURNS codes for an estimation of the source terms. A method in which the HTR-10 core is constructed using the unit lattice of a body-centered cubic is developed for core modeling. Based on this modeling method by MCNP, the generation of fission products, actinides and tritium with an increase in the burnup ratio is simulated. The model developed by MCNP appears feasible through a comparison with models developed in previous studies. Continuous fuel management is divided into five periods for the feeding and discharging of fuel pebbles. This discrete fuel management scheme is employed using the MONTEBURNS code. Finally, the work is investigated for 22 isotope fission products of nuclides, 22 actinides in the core, and tritium in the coolant. The activities are mainly distributed within the range of $10^{15}{\sim}10^{17}$ Bq in the equilibrium core of HTR-10. The results appear to be highly probable, and they would be informative when the spent fuel of HTGRs is taken into account. The tritium inventory in the primary coolant is also taken into account without a helium purification system. This article can lay a foundation for future work on analyses of source terms as a platform for safety assessment in HTGRs.

  • For the conventional two-dimensional source location of acoustic emission (AE) based on the threshold crossing, wave velocity has to be measured in the actual structure to calculate the arrival-time difference and thus to form the two hyperbolae. Velocity is dependent on the fiber orientation, however, due to the dependence of elastic modulus on fiber orientation in anisotropic materials such as compost#e plates. This tan affect the accuracy of AE source location and make the source location procedure complicated. In this study, we propose a method to reduce the location error in anisotropic plates by using the numerical solution of nonlinear equations, where the velocity term has been removed by employing the fourth sensor. The efficiency and validity of the proposed method has also been experimentally verified.

  • 대기질 모델(Air Quality Model)은 환경영향평가에서 필수적이다. 환경영향평가에 쓰이는 대기질 모델은 대부분 가우시안 플륨 모델이며, 그 중 ISC(Industrial Source Complex 3)이 가장 널리 쓰인다. 그러나 ISC3가 저풍속시 정확도가 떨어지지만 환경영향평가의 대기질 평가시 이에 대한 고려가 거의 이뤄지지 않은채 대기질 평가가 이뤄지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ISCLT(Long Term)와 ISCST(Short Term) 모델에 대하여 입력되는 기상변수에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행함으로써 기상변수가 모델의 결과에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다.

  • A theoretical study on the pressure fluctuation induced by a propeller was carried out in this study. The main objective of this study is to analyze the source mechanism of the pressure fluctuation induced by propeller sheet cavitation. To analyze the pressure fluctuation induced by propeller sheet cavitation, modern acoustic theory was applied. Governing equation of pressure fluctuation induced by sheet cavitation was derived using Ffowcs Williams proposed time domain acoustic approaches. Several factors affecting pressure fluctuation were analyzed based on the derived governing equation. Pressure fluctuation result was represented by combined results of the far field term and near field term. Finally, the physical mechanism of pressure fluctuation at the blade rate frequency was analyzed using numerically generated cavitation volume variation.

  • Long-term potentiation (LTP) of synaptic transmission is the most widely studied model for learning and memory. However its mechanisms are not clearly elucidated and are a subject for intense investigation. Previous attempts to decipher cellular mechanisms and network properties involved a current-source density analysis (CSDA) of the LTP from small animal hippocampus measured with a limited number of microelectrodes (typically <3), only revealing limited nature of spatiotemporal dynamics. Recent advancement in multi-electrode array (MEA) technology allows continuous and simultaneous recordings of LTP with more than 60 electrodes. However CSDA via the standard Laplacian transform is still limited due to its relatively high sensitivity toward noise, inability of resolving overlapped current sources and sinks, and its requirement for tissue conductivity values. In this study, we propose a new methodology for improved CSDA. Independent component analysis and its joint use (i.e., Joint-ICA) are applied to extract spatiotemporal components of LTP. The results show that ICA and Joint-ICA are capable of extracting independent spatiotemporal components of LTP generators. The ICs of LTP indicate the reversing roles of current sources and sinks which are associated with LTP.

  • The long-term monitoring of the Soyang Lake's water quality, covering 25% of the North Han River watershed, is crucial for effective management of both lake water quality and pollution sources in the broader region. This study utilized continuous monitoring data from the front of the Soyang Dam spanning 2003 to 2022, aiming to analyze trends and provide foundational insights for water quality management. Results revealed a slightly poor grade (IV) for total nitrogen (T-N) in both surface and mid-depth layers, indicating a need for concentrated T-N management. Trend analyses using the Mann-Kendall test and Sen's Slope depicted a decreasing trend in total phosphorus (T-P) for both layers, attributed to non-point source pollution reduction projects initiated after the Soyang Lake's designation as a pollution control area in 2007. The LOWESS analysis showed a T-P increase until 2006, followed by a decrease, influenced by the impact of Typhoon Ewiniar in that year. This 20-year overview establishes a comprehensive understanding of the Soyang Lake's water quality and trends, allowing for a seasonal and periodical analysis of water quality changes. The findings underscore the importance of continued monitoring and management strategies to address evolving water quality issues in the Soyang Lake over time.

  • With the advant of thryistors having large peak inverse voltages, current-source inverters are becoming very popular to feed induction motors. But it is very difficult to analysis the commutation. Since the actual variation of current during commutation is neither instantaneous nor linear and is effected by many parameters. Minimized bias-time of reverse voltages during commutation is expressed in term of machine parameters, capacitor voltage, load current and so on. The minimized bias-time is computed with y and z and also the commuation mechanism is tested on 2.2 kw induction motor. The computed results are compared with the experimental results, and the results give a good information for designing the commutation mechanism.

  • In this work, linear dynamics of a circulating fluid-fueled subcritical reactor system with temperature feedback and external neutron source was modeled and examined. In a circulating fluid-fuel system, the stable region is slightly moved by a circulation fluid effect. The effects of subcriticality and temperature feedback coefficient on the reactor stability were tested by calculating frequency response of neutron density originated from reactivity perturbation or external source oscillation of system. The amplitude transfer function has a different shape near subcritical region due to the exponential term in the transfer function. The results of the study show that at a slightly subcritical region, low frequency oscillation in accelerator current or reactivity can be amplified depending on the temperature feedback. However, as the subcriticality increases, the oscillation becomes negligible regardless of the magnitude of the temperature feedback coefficient.
