In this paper, a dual band antenna with the operating frequency in HF and UHF band was proposed. The antenna structure consists of three spiral turns coil in the bottom side to generate the HF frequency of 13.56 MHz. In the top of the antenna, an inverted-spiral dipole structure is used to create the UHF frequency of 922 MHz. The dual band antenna was optimized to reduce size with $80mm{\times}40mm{\times}0.8mm$ dimension. The antenna presents the omnidirectional characteristic with high gain. To validate the theoretical design, the antenna was simulated using FR-4 substrate and verified the simulation results.

Ac magnetic field was changed in the vicinity of a flaw because of the distribution of eddy current within a conductor, when the magnetic field was applied to a conductor having a flaw. The flaw detection was performed by using Co-based amorphous wire sensor head. The wire has almost 0 magneto-striction and high permeability. An comparative uniform magnetic field was applied to a 1㎜ thick copper plate and a 25㎛ thick aluminum sheet conductor using spiral typed coil. The size of the coil has 40㎜$\times$40㎜ outer width and 8㎜$\times$8㎜ inner width. The copper plate and the aluminum sheet has 0.5㎜ and 0.1㎜ wide gap, respectively. The frequency range of applied field was 100㎑∼600㎑. The induced voltage difference of 2.5㎷ was obtained in the maximum voltage and minimum one measured across the gap of the 1mm thick conductor. In the case of aluminum sheet, 0.4㎷ was obtained. From this results, the effectiveness of Co-based amorphous wire was confirmed in the ECT technique.

This paper presents an advanced life cycle cost (LCC) analysis of a ground source heat pump (GSHP) system and suggests a smart operation mode with a thermal performance test (TPT) and an energy pile system constructed on the site of the Incheon International Airport (IIA). First, an economic analysis of the GSHP system was conducted for the second passenger terminal of the IIA considering actual influencing factors such as government support and the residual value of the equipment. The analysis results showed that the economic efficiency of the GSHP system could be increased owing to several influential factors. Second, a multiple regression analysis was conducted using different independent variables in order to analyze the influence indices with regard to the LCC results. Every independent index, in this case the initial construction cost, lifespan of the equipment, discount rate and the amount of price inflation can affect the LCC results. Third, a GSHP system using an energy pile was installed on the site of the construction laboratory institute of the IIA. TPTs of W-shape and spiral-coil-type GHEs were conducted in continuous and intermittent operation modes, respectively, prior to system operation of the energy pile. A cooling GSHP system in the energy pile was operated in both the continuous and intermittent modes, and the LCC was calculated. Furthermore, the smart operation mode and LCC were analyzed considering the application of a thermal storage tank.

The effective saccharification of cellulosic biomass to glucose is the most critical step for the conversion of renwable biomass to alternative liquid fuel. The enzymatic hydrolysis of biomass can be significantly enhanced provide the attrition milling media is added during hydrolysis. The enhancing mechanism of hydrolysis reaction in an agitated bead system was investigated. An attrition-reactor (bioattritor) which installed specially designed torque measuring apparatus was developed, and the potimal saccharification conditions of bioattritor were determined. The relationship between the power consumption required for agitation of attrition-milling media and enhanced extent of hydrolysis of biomass was compared to evaluatic economic feasibility of the process.

In this paper, ozonizer of neon discharge tube type( Neolamp ) by using silent discharge has been designed and manufactured. The discharge and ozone generation characteristics of Neolamp have been studied with variation of turn-on number( N ) of Neolamp, quality( Q ) and shape of external electrode. The discharge voltage is proportional to gap spacing of spiral external electrode( G ) for constant applied volatge. The discharge current is inversely proportional to G for constant applied volatge. The ozone concentration is inversely proportional to Q and G. Also, ozone concentration and generation are proportional to N. The sterilization characteristics of Escherichia coil have been obtained more than 97[%] at $1.30[mg/{\ell}]$ of liquid ozone concentration.

In this paper, using the globular structure designed and implemented for the transmitter and the receiver resonant wireless power transfer(WPT). The coil of the transmitter was proposed to emit a magnetic energy in three-dimensional space by winding a ball shape. Each side of the transmitter has been designed to obtain a high Q value by a spiral structure. This solves the problem that the transfer efficiency decreases rapidly depending on the location in the conventional WPT. The resonance frequency is used 6.78 MHz and the distance between the trasnitter and the receiver is 200 mm. The transfer efficiency of the proposed WPT system is higher than 40% at all direction.

The performance of gas-fired boilers were experimentally investigated. The heat exchanger used for the experiments consisted of circular tube with longitudinal fins for the gas side and a spiral coil for the water side. The burner was located at the top of the heat exchanger, and the burned gas flowed down to the exit. The experiments carried out for different water flow rates, the heat capacities of the boiler and the number of baffle. The thermal efficiency of the upward flow was higher than that of the downward flow of the water in the heat exchanger. As the boiler capacity increased, the thermal efficiency decreased. As the number of the baffles increase, the thermal efficiency increased and the increasing rate of the efficiency decreased. The gas-side overall heat transfer coefficient was independent of the flow rate of the water. The effect of the number of the baffles on the heat transfer coefficient was greater than that of the boiler capacity.

A double rectangular spiral inductor is fabricated using FeTaN films. The inductor is composed of internal coils sandwiched by magnetic layers. Characteristics of inductor performance are investigated with an emphasis on planarization of magnetic films. In the absence of the planarization process, the grating topology of upper magnetic films over coil arrays degrades the soft magnetic properties and the inductor performance. It also induces a longitudinal magnetic anisotropy with the easy axis aligned to the magnetic flux direction. This alignment prevents the upper magnetic films from contributing to the total induction. Glass bonding is a viable method for achieving a completely planar inductor structure. The planar inductor with glass bonding shows excellent performance : inductance of 1.1 H, Q factor of 7 (at 5 MHz), and the dc current capability up to 100 mA.

For the application of HTS wire to AC power equipment, a conductor with high current capacity and low loss is required. CORC^®, one of the high-current conductors manufactured using several HTS wires, is made by winding the wires in a spiral on a cylindrical former. Because the magnetization loss of a CORC^® conductor depends on the degree of magnetic coupling between the wires constituting the CORC^®, it is necessary to know the value of the magnetization loss of the CORC^® itself. In order to obtain an accurate loss value, it is necessary to know the effect of the ratio of the winding pitch of the CORC^® conductor in the pickup coil region sampling the magnetization loss signal. To confirm this effect, we prepare CORC^® samples having various winding pitches, and measure and compare the magnetization losses. In addition, the magnetization loss was measured while rotating the CORC^® samples and it was examined whether there was a difference in the magnetization loss according to the rotation.

Recently, RF inductor having researched by many workers, we fabricated and investigated properties of RF inductors. In order to improve the Q-factor (Quality), we try to apply the patterned Fe$_{78.81}$Ta$_{8.47}$N$_{12.71}$ soft magnetic thin film of 5000 which shows magnetic anisotropy of 30 Oe. Thus, patterned magnetic film was artificially increased magnetic anisotropy lead to increasing of ferro-magnetic resonance frequency up to GHz band. Coil as part of inductor was fabricated by lift off process. The dimension of RF inductor was designed 47un, rectangular shape, and measured properties.
