In this paper, we investigated influence of gas pressure and gas mixing ratio on the abnormal discharge characteristics of fluorescent lamp. Abnormal discharge characteristics have been examined by changing inner gas pressure and mixing ratio. As the inner gas pressure and mixing ratio increase, the occurrence of abnormal discharge was delayed. It was found out that the occurrence of abnormal discharge is sufficiently delayed at the optimized inner gas pressure and mixing ratio.

In order to develop a mathematical model which can predict the operating voltage and current of a discharge lamp, the properties and the physical phenomena of a low pressure gas discharge are investigated. Fluorescent lamp which uses a low pressure mercury-argon gas discharge is used in the model development. In a low pressure mercur-argon gas discharge, the continuity equation for each excited atom and electron, and the electron energy balance equation can predict the physical quantities of discharge. By coupling these equations and the circuit equation, the electrical characteristics of the discharge lamp can be predicted. To verify the validity of the suggested model, we calculated the voltage and current of a fluorescent lamp operating with inductor ballast for source frequency of 5KHz, 8KHz, 10KHz, and 13KHz. The results show good agreements in wave forms between the measured voltage and current, and the difference between the measured and calculated one is less than 5%.

This paper is to be researched into ozone generation character of Bi-Ti-Si type high dielectric yield ceramic catalyst discharge tube. And conditions of basic experiment are the outside diameter of discharge tube : 52 mm, the length of discharge tube : 350 mm, the frequence : 900 Hz, the temperature of cooling water : 25 $^{\circ}C$, quantity of flow : 5, 10, 20 l/min, pressure : 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 atm, and distance of discharge gap : 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 mm. Ozone generation characteristics were measured to consumption power. At quantity of flow : 20 l/min, discharge gap : 0.6 mm, pressure : 1.6, and consumption power : 150 W, Maximum ozone generation efficiency of 175 g/kWh was obtained. Maximum ozone generation efficiency was measured below the flow quantity of 20 l/min at below pressure of 1.6 atm. However, Maximum ozone generation efficiency was measured over the flow quantity of 20 l/min at over pressure of 1.6 atm.

Pressure variation is one of the major sources on noise emission in the oil hydraulic piston pumps. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify about pressure variation characteristics of the oil hydraulic piston pumps to reduce noise. Pressure variations in a cylinder at trapping region were measured during pump working period with discharge pressures, rotational speeds. The effect of pre-compression of the discharge port with three types valve plates also investigated. It was found that the pressure variation characteristics of oil hydraulic piston pumps deeply related with pre-compression design of the discharge port. Also, it was found that the pressure overshoot at trapping region can reduce by use of pre-compression at the end of the discharge port in valve plate

Our previous experimental and numerical investigations of decelerated swirling flows in conical diffusers have demonstrated that water jet injection along the symmetry axis mitigates the pressure fluctuations associated with the precessing vortex rope. However, for swirling flows similar to Francis turbines operated at partial discharge, the jet becomes effective when the jet discharge is larger than 10% from the turbine discharge, leading to large volumetric losses when the jet is supplied from upstream the runner. As a result, we introduce the flow-feedback approach for supplying the jet by using a fraction of the discharge collected downstream the conical diffuser. Experimental investigations on mitigating the pressure fluctuations generated by the precessing vortex rope and investigations of pressure recovery coefficient on the cone wall with and without flow-feedback method are presented.

We have studied on plasma diagnosis, characteristics of the glow discharge at the several different conditions of pressure, discharge current and such. The discharge onset voltage and onset current decreased as pressure increase, the general trend was nearly in agreement with the left regions of Paschen's curve. As normal glow discharge, discharge voltage was constant according to discharge current.

In this study, it is the purpose to develope a cheap and compact $CO_2$ laser and to apply 60 Hz AC discharges as a new exciting source. An axial and water cooledtype was adopted as the laser mode. The laser performance characteristics as various parameters, such as gas pressure and discharge current, have been investigated. And the laser output and the efficiency of DC and 60 Hz AC discharge-exciting type have been measured and compared for the different input powers at the static operational pressure. As a result, the case of 60 Hz AC discharge-exciting type, the laser oscillation began at the condition of operational pressure 6 Torr and discharge current 5 mA. A maximum laser output of about 32 W was obtained at an operational pressure of 18 Toorr and a discharge current of 30 mA. In addition, the laser output was saturated from an operational pressure of about 14 Torr and a discharge current of about 20 mA. In this $CO_2$ laser, the laser output of 60 Hz AC discharge-exciting type was slightly higher than that of DC discharge-exciting type. And the laser efficiency was about 10 to 13% for the various operational pressures and the discharge currents.

Plasmas can be made by electrical discharge on earth. Most of the plasmas on earth have been generated in low pressure environments where the pressure is less than one millionth of the atmospheric pressure. However, there are many plasma applications which require high pressure plasmas. Therefore, scientists start research on plasma generation at high pressure to avoid use of expensive vacuum equipments. Large-volume inexpensive plasmas are needed in the areas of material processing, environmental protection and improvement, efficient energy source and applications, etc. We therefore developed new methods of plasma generations at high pressure and carried out research of applying these plasmas to high tech industries representing 21 century. These research fields will play pivotal roles in material, environmental and energy science and technology in future.

In order to study the structure of RF glow discharge driven at 13.56MHz in argon, the discharge voltage, current and phase shift between them will be measured over a wide range of discharge parameters(gas pressure between 1mTorr and 50mTorr with discharge power between 20mW and 200W). In this paper, the dc glow discharge characteristics and plasma parameters of both FTS and CPMS systems are studied experimentally. It is found that for CPMS system discharge is stablized under wider ranges of magnetic field and pressure than for FTS system. The plasma density and electron temperature of the plasma for these two systems are in the range of $10^{10}{\sim}7{\times}10^{11}[cm^{-3}]$ and $3.5{\sim}6.5$[eV], respectively.
