The development of a heat exchanger production model based on the microlamination technology and it's economic efficiency is addressed. A microchannel production model is proposed for the high-volume production. The microlamination system is made up of lamina patterning, laminae sorting and laminae bonding. A cost estimation model is developed based on the hewn cycle time and capital equipment costs. An economic efficiency analysis is performed to determine the cost drivers under the different market and product scenarios. The result of the economic efficiency analysis indicated that the device size and the production rate have a great effect on the overall manufacturing cost of microlamination devices. And it can be concluded that the microlamination should focus on bonding larger laminae and reducing both cycle time and warpage.

In this study, the simulation program for the prediction of volumetric efficiency of the internal combustion engine by the resonator has been developed, when the resonator is mounted on the intake system of 4-cycle SI engines for the improvement of volumetric efficiency. The experimental work has also been carried out for the verification of the program, and it is found that the result of calculation by the simulation program fits qualitatively well with that of experiment. To get the optimal mounting position of resonator on the intake system, the influence of the variation of dimensions of resonator such as neck length, volume and neck diameter were examined by the numerical calculation of the program in advance and the results were compared with the experiments. It is found that the position which is departed 150cm from plenum chamber is better than any other positions, and the average amount of the increase of volumetric efficiency is about 2∼3%

This study evaluates the economic feasibility of industrializing fluidized bed dryer for wood particles. The theoretically required heat energy and energy efficiency were evaluated using a pilot scale fluidized bed dryer. When Mongolian Oak wood particles with 50% initial moisture content were dried in the fluidized bed dryer with air of $70^{\circ}C$ air circulating at 1.1-1.3 m/s for 30 minutes, the total theoretically required heat energy was 2,177 kJ. Of this, 1,763 kJ (approximately 81.0%) was used to heat the air flowing in from outside the dryer and 386 kJ (approximately 17.7%) was used to heat and remove water from the wood particles. Actual energy consumed was 7,560 kJ, giving energy efficiency of 28.8%. Thus, to industrialize a drying method such as fluidized bed drying, where the dryer volume is significantly larger than the volume of wood particles, it is necessary to minimize energy loss and maximize energy efficiency by designing the dryer size considering the amount of wood particles and choosing a suitable air circulation rate.

This research dealt with performance characteristics of OTEC system applying an ejector and additional pump. Each system using five kinds of working fluids was analyzed, and primary parameters with respect to entrainment ratio were examined: Turbine gross power, evaporation capacity, pump work, efficiency and volume flow ratio. The primary results were as following. The efficiency of ejector-pump OTEC system was dependent on entrainment of the ejector. The degree of efficiency change was different from applied working fluid, and amount of pump work was turned out to be primary factor affected system efficiency. Meanwhile, optimized entrainment ratio was different from applied working fluid since their different vapor density. System efficiency at optimized entrainmet ratio of each working fluid was around 5%, showing minor difference each other.

홀로그래픽 부피격자 커플러(VGC : volume grating coupler)는 높은 선택적 결합효율, 건식 제조공정, 콤팩트한 소자 제작이 가능하고 저렴하기 때문에 광연결 기술의 구현 및 응용에 매우 매력적인 소자로 간주되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 도파로형 광연결에 적용키 위한 $45^{\circ}$ 격자 경사각을 갖는 도파로 삽입형 입 출력 VGC를 DuPont사의 HRF600-20 홀로그래픽 포토폴리머를 이용하여 설계, 구현하기 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 그리고 제안한 VGC 소자의 유용성을 입증키 위해 동작파장이 각각 632.8nm 및 1550nm인 VGC를 제작하고 실험결과를 제시하였다. 실험결과 632.8nm 파장에서 동작하는 격자주기가 $0.5{\mu}m$인 단일 VGC의 경우 TE 편광에서 입력 결합효율은 86.6% 이상이고, 1550nm 파장에서 동작하는 격자주기가 $0.73068{\mu}m$인 $1\times2$ VGC의 입력 결합효율은 $\sim90.9%$의 특성을 나타내었다.

This paper reviews recent major activities on instrumentation and methodology of PET. The performance of the PET instrumentation can be expressed by four physical characteristics, 1) spatial resolution, 2) coincidence resolving time, 3) energy resolution, and 4) detection efficiency. The physical and technical aspects of PET systems are briefly discussed along with these characteristics. Toward high resolution PET the recent trend has been to design multiple rings of densely packed detector arrays with scintillators. In order to satisfy the sampling requirement in reconstruction, continuous detector units has been developed. Iterative image reconstruction algorithms have received considerable attention for improvement of both the sampling requirement and image quality toward the stationary PET. Better resolving time improves the maximum true coincidence rate, which is also increased with more detectors placed in coincidence with each other. It suggests that volume PET is promising for enhancement of detection efficiency. The scattered coincidence event rate may be reduced by using detectors with better energy resolution. The use of interplane septa, however, takes over improvement of energy resolution in 2D PET. Energy resolution becomes an important factor for image quality under the condition of septa removal such as volume PET. Toward full utilization of emitting photons, 3D reconstruction incorporating oblique rays has been studied, and volume reconstruction algorithms have been developed. Practical volume PET systems impose heavy burden not only to detector sets and coincidence circuits, but also to computers in the memory requirements and the data processing. In conclusion, there have been many ingenious methods in development of PET instrumentation, which are based on unique capability of PET. They will be expected to overcome technical limitations, and to approach the fundamental limits.

A sensitive concentration method utilising modified gas-purge microsyringe extraction (GP-MSE) was developed. Concentration (reduction in volume) to a microlitre volume was achieved. PAHs were utilised as semivolatile analytes to optimise the various parameters that affect the concentration efficiency. The injection rate and temperature were the key factors that affected the concentration efficiency. An efficient concentration (75.0-96.1%) of PAHs was obtained under the optimised conditions. The method exhibited good reproducibility (RSD values that ranged from 1.5 to 9.0%). The GP-MSE concentration method enhances the volume reduction (concentration factor), leading to a low method detection limit ($0.5-15ngL^{-1}$). Furthermore, this method offers the advantage of small-volume sampling, enabling even the detection of diurnal hourly changes in the concentration of PAHs in ambient air. Utilising this method in combination with GC-MS, the diurnal hourly flux of PAHs from the gas phase of ambient air was measured. Indeed, the proposed technique is a simple, fast, low-cost and environmentally friendly.

광음향 분광학 연구에 빈번히 사용되는 최소 부피 개방형 광음향 셀을 이용하여 광음향 신호를 측정할 경우 최소 부피 광음향셀의 밀폐상태는 광음향 신호의 재현성에 큰 영향을 미친다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 최소 부피 광음향 셀의 밀폐 효율을 높일 수 있는 고무오링 밀폐재를 적용한 구조를 설계하고 제작한 후, 제작한 구조체를 이용하여 다양한 재질의 고무 오링에 대한 광음향 신호를 주파수 별로 측정하고 분석하였다. 실험 결과 진공 그리스를 이용하여 광음향 셀을 밀폐하는 기존의 방식과 비교했을 때, 실리콘 고무 오링을 밀폐재로 사용하는 경우 광음향 신호의 진폭과 위상의 재현성이 각각 최대 53.4%와 80.4%까지 향상될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
