In order to minimize the impact of water hammer In a pipeline, a determination of optimum position of hydraulic structures with best operation of pressure relief valve was explored at the Seobyun pumping station. Method of characteristics is used to simulate a surge impact originating from abrupt stop of pumping operation in a pipeline. Genetic algorithm shows a powerful capability in searching a global solution, especially for a nonlinear problem The application results suggests that the maximum positive pressure can be relaxed by decreasing the opening time of pressure relief valve, meanwhile the maximum negative pressure can be relaxed by increasing the opening time of pressure relief valve. This study shows that the integration of a genetic algorithm with a transient analysis technique such as method of characteristic can improve the design of hydraulic structure in a pipe network.

관망 내에서 흐름의 연속 방정식과 운동량 방정식을 상 미분으로 전개하여 해석한 특성선 방법은 주로 가압 관망체계(Pressurized Pipeline System)에서의 부정류 해석(Unsteady Analysis)에 사용 된다. 그러나 이특성선 방법은 천이류 해석을 위한 관망 재구성 과정에서 Courant수 조건의 만족을 위한 관의 재배열에 천문학적인 계산용량과 시간이 필요하다는 단점이 있다. 이는 현장 적용 시 압력파 전파속도의 불확실성과 연계되어 상당한 장해요소가 되고 있다. 이에 대안적인 방법으로서 임펄스응답법이 개발되었다. 이는 경계지점에서 복소수 유량에 대한 복소수 수두의 비율로써 정의된 관망에서의 수리임피던스를 역퓨리에 변환에 적용하여, 주파수 영역의 수치를 시간 영역으로 변환하여 응답함수를 산출한 후, 산출된 응답함수와 구해진 경계지점에서의 유량과의 적분을 통하여 임의의 지점에서의 수두 및 유량을 계산하는 방법이다. 임펄스 응답법은 관 부속물관의 특성을 기술하는 수학적 표현의 난해함으로 인해 지금까지는 단일관에 대한 연구에만 국한되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 임펄스응답법을 수리구조물이 부착된 관망에 적용하여 다양한 조건에서 천이류 분석을 시행하였다. 즉, 에어챔버 및 서지탱크와 같은 수리구조물을 각각에 대한 수리임피던스를 구하고, 가지관 및 통합 관성항으로 취급하여 수리구조물을 처리하였다. 그리고 이러한 결과를 특성선방법과 비교하여 그 적절성을 검증하였는데, 특성선 방법에 의한 모의 결과와 비교하였을 때, 일치하는 결과를 나타내었다. 임펄스응답법에 의한 모의 결과에서 감쇄효과를 과대평가하는 경향이 관찰되었다. 이는 임펄스 응답법의 가정에 기인한 것으로써 난류 상태의 흐름에서 상당한 불일치를 가져올 수 있으나, 수리 구조물에 의한 수격압이 감쇄되는 과정에서 대부분 흐름이 층류 상태로 전환된다고 가정 할 때는 상당한 적용성이 있다. 본 연구는 수리구조물이 부착된 관망의 해석함에 있어서 임펄스응답법의 적용이 가능함을 보였고, 이는 보다 복잡한 관망에서의 천이류 해석이 가능함을 시사한다.

The wave-cutoff tool is a new diagnostic method to measure electron density and electron temperature. Most of the plasma diagnostic tools have the disadvantage that their application to processing plasma where toxic and reactive gases are used gives rise to many problems such as contamination, perturbation, precision of measurement, and so on. We can minimize these problems by using the wave-cutoff method. Here, we will present the results obtained through the development of the wave-cutoff diagnostic method. The frequency spectrum characteristics of the wave-cutoff probe will be obtained experimentally and analyzed through the microwave field simulation by using the CST-MW studio simulator. The plasma parameters are measured with the wave-cutoff method in various discharge conditions and its results will be compared with the results of Langmuir probe. Another disadvantage is that other diagnostic methods spend a long time (~ a few seconds) to measure plasma parameters. In this presentation, a fast measurement method will be also introduced. The wave-cutoff probe system consists of two antennas and a network analyzer. The network analyzer provides the transmission spectrum and the reflection spectrum by frequency sweeping. The plasma parameters such as electron density and electron temperature are obtained through these spectra. The frequency sweeping time, the time resolution of the wave-cutoff method, is about 1 second. A short pulse with a broad band spectrum of a few GHz is used with an oscilloscope to acquire the spectra data in a short time. The data acquisition time can be reduced with this method. Here, the plasma parameter measurement methods, Langmuir probe, pulsed wave-cutoff method and frequency sweeping wave-cutoff method, are compared. The measurement results are well matched. The real time resolution is less than 1 ?sec. The pulsed wave-cutoff technique is found to be very useful in the transient plasmas such as pulsed plasma and tokamak edge plasma.

DME (Di-Methyl Ether) is synthetic product that is produced through dehydration of methanol or a direct synthesis from syngas. And it is able to save fossil fuel and reduce pollutants of emission such as PM and $CO_2$. In spite of its advantages it is difficult to design DME fuelled engine system because DME fuel may cause to severely generate cavitation and corrosion in fuel delivery system due to physical properties of DME. Therefore, in this study three-dimensional internal flow characteristics with consideration of cavitation were predicted in the DME injector using diesel and DME fuel. Moving grid technique was employed to describe needle motion and 1-D hydraulic simulation of injector was also simulated to obtain transient needle motion profiles. The results of simulation show that cavitations was generated at the inlet of nozzle near high velocity region both diesel and DME. And mass flow rate of DME is reduced by 4.73% compared to that of diesel at maximum valve lift because cavitation region of DME is much more larger. To increase flow rate of DME injector, internal flow simulation has been conducted to investigate the nozzle hole inner R-cut effect. The flow rates of diesel and DME increase as R-cut increases, and flow coefficient of DME fuel injector was increased by 6.3% on average compared with diesel fuelled injector. Finally, optimum shape of DME injector nozzle is suggested through the comparison of flow coefficient with variation of nozzle hole inner R-cut.

Metal fatigue is an important aging mechanism that material characteristics can be deteriorated when even a small load is applied repeatedly. An accurate fatigue evaluation is very important for component structural integrity and reliability. In the design stage of a nuclear power plant, the fatigue evaluations of the Class 1 components have to be performed. However, operating experience shows that the design evaluation can be very conservative due to conservatism in the transient severity and number of occurrence. Therefore, the fatigue monitoring system has been considered as a practical mean to ensure safe operation of the nuclear power plants. The fatigue monitoring system can quantify accumulated fatigue damage up to date for various plant conditions. The purpose of this paper is to describe the fatigue monitoring procedure and to introduce the fatigue monitoring program developed by the authors. The feasibility of the fatigue monitoring program is demonstrated by comparing with the actual operating data and finite element analysis results.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is still uncommomn disease in Korea. However the frequency of this disease has been slowly increased with routine measurement of serum calcium and increasing awareness of hyperparathyroidism in recent years. The diagnosis is established by a persistent elevation of serum calcium and parathyroid hormone and by clinical evaluation. This is a report of eleven patients with primary hyperparathyroidism treated with surgical operation during a period from 1983 to 1997 at Department of Hospital. Authors analyzed the cases to evaluate clinical characteristics and outcome of surgical treatment retrospectively. The result was as follows. 1) In sex distribution, female patients were eight and three were male, the age distribution ranged from 18 to 67 years. 2) The presenting clinical manifestations were renal and urinary stone in eight, bone pain or fracture in six, muscle weakness in four, neurologic symptoms in four, neck mass in three, hypertension in two, and G-I symptoms in one. 3) All patients showed hypercalcemia and elevated serum parathyroid hormone level. 4) Preoperative localization study was performed with computerized tomography, ultrasonography, MRI, arteriography and thyroid scaning. 5) The tumor locations were left lower in eight, left upper in one, right lower in one, and right upper location was one case. 6) Histopathologic findings disclosed adenoma in all cases. 7) All patients were treated by surgical excision and postoperatively transient hypocalcemia occurred in six patients, but no other complication was developed.

In this paper we composed the dual fuzzy rules using each region of specific points and $e-{\Delta}e$ phase plane In order to make dual fuzzy rule base. We composed the fuzzy control rules which can decrease rise time, delay time, maximum overshoot than basic fuzzy control rules. proposed method is alternately use at specific points of $e-{\Delta}e$ phase plane with two fuzzy control rules that is one control rule occruing the steady state error in transient region and another fuzzy control rule use to decrease the steady state error and rapidly converge at the convergence region. Also, two fuzzy control rules in the $e-{\Delta}e$ phase plane decide the change time according to response characteristics of plants. In order to confirm thef proposed algorithm. As the results of experiments through the hydraulic servo motor control system with a DSP processor, We verified that proposed dual fuzzy control rules get the good response compare with the basic fuzzy control rule.

In this paper, filters are designed to reduce transients overvoltage in inverter fed high-voltage large-capacity induction motor drive system. Design issues for a LCR filter at the inverter output terminals to reduce the dv/dt of the inverter output pulse and a RC filter at the induction motor input terminals to match the characteristic impedance between cable and induction motor are examined in detail. These filters are modeled to be suitable to high-voltage large-capacity induction motor. The performance of the filter is evaluated through simulation using EMTP(ElectroMagnetic Transients Program). We presented filters that used high voltage large-capacity induction Motor on the basis of this. Effect of the filter is analyzed for variation of the cable length. Characteristics of filters are analyzed to reduce harmonic in voltage waveform of induction motor input terminal. The switching surge voltage became the major cause to occur the insulation failure by serious voltage stress in the stator winding of induction motor. Filter for to mitigate transients overvoltage presents a required component in drive system of high-voltage large-capacity induction motor. Also, proposed filters are proved through simulation using EMTP.

A study on the speed limit and sizing of auxiliary fixed-wing of compound gyroplane was performed. The performance of the plane that uses the same rotor system and power of BO-105 helicopter was compared with that of BO-105 helicopter. The wing area which is used to compensate in lift, was calculated considering the aerodynamic characteristics and lift sharing ratio of the rotor. Achievable flight speeds were observed for two types of fuselage; BO-105 and streamlined bodies. The study showed that the autorotating rotor can share 1/2 of lift at high speed and the parasite power of compound gyroplane having streamlined body and small wing can be minimized, accordingly it can fly faster than helicopter with airspeed more than twice.

The purpose of this paper is to classify VOC gases by emulating the characteristics found in biological olfaction. For this purpose, we propose new signal processing method based a polymeric chemical sensor array consisting of 4096 sensors which is created by NEUROCHEM project. To remove unstable sensors generated in the manufacturing process of very large scaled chemical sensor array, we used discrete wavelet transformation and cosine similarity. And, to remove the supernumerary redundancy, we proposed the method of selecting candidates of representative sensor representing sensors with similar features by Fuzzy c-means algorithm. In addition, we proposed an improved algorithm for selecting representative sensors among candidates of representative sensors to better enhance classification ability. However, Classification for very large scaled sensor array has a great deal of time in process of learning because many sensors are used for learning though a redundancy is removed. Throughout experimental trials for classification, we confirmed the proposed method have an outstanding classification ability, at transient state as well as steady state.
