  • Evaporation heat transfer characteristics of $CO_2$/propane mixtures in horizontal smooth and micro-fin tubes have been investigated by experiment. The experiments were carried out for several test conditions of mass fluxes, heat fluxes, compositions of $CO_2$/propane refrigerant mixtures and tube geometries. Direct heating method was used for supplying heat to the refrigerant where the test tube was uniformly heated by electric current which was applied to the tube wall. Heat transfer coefficient data during evaporation process of $CO_2$/propane mixtures were measured for 5 m long smooth and micro-fin tubes with outer diameters of 5 mm, respectively. The tests were conducted at mass fluxes of 318 to 997 $kg/m^2s$, heat fluxes of 6 to 20 $kW/m^2$ and for several mixture compositions (100/0, 75/25, 50/50, 25/75, 100/0 by wt% of $CO_2$/propane). The differences of heat transfer characteristics between smooth and micro-fin tubes for various compositions of $CO_2$/propane refrigerant mixtures and the effect of mass flux, and heat flux on enhancement factor (EF) and penalty factor (PF) were presented.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify experiences of nurses who served as preceptors in clinical education for senior student nurses in a college of medicine in Wonju city. Method: Data was collected from 20 preceptors instructing senior student nurses in 2001 using a self-completion questionnaire. To analyze data, content analysis was done using an analysis scheme developed by the investigators. Result: The analysis scheme consisted of 7 categories and 25 subcategories. 135 significant statements were analyzed and categorized. Preceptors indicated that they were role models, socialization facilitators and educators while instructing students in the clinical practicum. In performing the preceptors' role, preceptors reported that their most important change was self-enhancement, and positive experience was a constructive work atmosphere. The most important factor facilitating the preceptors' role performance was support from head nurses, and the most discouraging factor was work loads. Conclusion: This study suggests that interventions for encouragement and socialization of preceptors should be developed to promote clinical education for senior student nurses.

  • In this study, hydrodynamic and mooring analysis for LNG FSRU moored by an internal turret with 9 mooring lines are numerically performed using commercial softwares, Hydrostar and Ariane. Met-ocean combinations for screening method are taken from wave governed condition(BV Rule Note NR 493) with relative heading between wave and wind between −45° and +45° and relative heading between wind and current between −30° and +30°. Extreme mooring analysis and sensitivity analysis are performed for intact and damaged (=one line missing) conditions and the parameters for sensitivity analysis are wave peak period, peak enhancement factor and line pretension. In the viewpoint of the design tension in mooring line, chain diameter is designed to satisfy safety factor for each conditions. As the chain diameter is increased from 152mm to 171mm, the designtension is reduced while the minimum breaking load is increased.

  • Serratiopeptidase (SRP), a 50 kDa metalloprotease produced from Serratia marcescens species, is a drug with potent anti-inflammatory property. In this study, a powerful statistical design, evolutionary operation (EVOP), was applied to optimize the media composition for SRP production in shake-flask culture of Serratia marcescens NRRL B-23112. Initially, factors such as inoculum size, initial pH, carbon source, and organic nitrogen source were optimized using one factor at a time. The most significant medium components affecting the production of SRP were identified as maltose, soybean meal, and $K_2HPO_4$. The SRP so produced was not found to be dependent on whey protein, but rather was notably induced by most of the organic nitrogen sources used in the study and free from other concomitant protease contaminant, as revealed by protease inhibition study. In addition, experiments were performed using different sets of EVOP design with each factor varied at three levels. The experimental data were analyzed with a standard set of statistical formula. The EVOP-optimized medium, with maltose 4.5%, soybean meal 6.5%, $K_2HPO_4$ 0.8%, and NaCl 0.5% (w/v), gave a SRP production of 7,333 EU/ml, which was 17-fold higher than the unoptimized media. The application of EVOP resulted in significant enhancement of SRP production.

  • Although we try to increase the order of turn key construction for the international competitiveness strengthening, the construction quality advancement and the productivity enhancement of the public sectors, the problems of the domestic turn key systems are causing the hardships of all the participants and many possible disputes. The home turn key constructions have been activated since 1997. A lot of trial and error had been experienced in these days, and the turn key systems have been changed little by little. But the bases are continuously kept because of their reflecting all the participants' opinions. In the inner turn key constructions the problems of uniform types are repeatedly occurred, and, especially, many problems happen up to the stage of early stage owing to the specialties of the turn key construction. So the dispute factors of the Korean turn key constructions were abstracted through the literature searches, the site document examinations, the case studies and the interviews with the experts. When the technicians meeting the interior turn key construction for the first time and working here now are well acquainted with only these factors, many disputes will be prevented.

  • Adaptive filter algorithm has been used for plant identifier and noise cancellation. This algorithm has been researched for performance enhancement of filtering. The design and development of a reliable system has been becoming a key issue in industry field because the reliability of a system is considered as an important factor to perform the system's function successfully. And the computing with reliability and fault tolerance is a important factor in the case of aviation and nuclear plant. This paper presents design of reliable adaptive filter with fault tolerance. Generally, redundancy is used for reliability. In this case it needs computing or circuit for voting mechanism or computing for fault detection or switching part. But this presented Filter is not in need of computing for voting mechanism, or fault detection. Therefore it has simple computing, and practicality for application. And in this paper, reliability of adaptive filter is analyzed. The effectiveness of the proposed adaptive filter is demonstrated to the case studies of plant identifier and noise cancellation by using DSP.

  • This study is an attempt to develop the 'Parental Intelligence Scale', which can be applied in the parent education and counselling and provide more useful information for more appropriate interventions by evaluating the characteristics of parent's roles and strong/weak points of the parent's roles under the special situation and environments. In developing the scales, this study reviews of numbers of existing literatures, analysis of scales and tools on parent's role or attitude, collection of episodes on parent's role, validity check processes by field experts, and 2 rounds of factor analysis. The outcomes of the study are as follows; In regard of the development of Parental Intelligence Scale, 3 factors of care-giving role, management role, nurturing role were derived from the conceptual and measurement model. From these 3 factors, 8 sub-factors of empathy, encourage, enhancement, rational authoritativeness, flexibility, rejection, acceptance, control were constructed. 39 question items were derived in order to measure these sub-factors. Especially through the two rounds of factor analysis, the question items with enhanced internal consistency were derived and total cumulative variance was increased, which made theoretical model into the generalized model possible.

  • Full Bridge Diode Rectification and Phase Controlled SCR Rectification are the most widely used methods of power conversion($AC{\rightarrow}DC$) in Power Electronic products such as UPS systems. But using these types of converters can lead to the following problems. First, they generate harmonics on the AC input side, which can cause interference in other equipment connected to the same commercial power line. Second, they deteriorate the power factor so that the input power capacity or the equipment becomes larger than the actual rated output capacity. As a means to overcome these problems an IGBT type PWM Converter, which applies a current control algorithm, is proposed. In this paper the enhancement of the converter performance is shown through simulation.
