In modem wind power system of large capacity above 1MW, horizontal axis wind turbine(HAWT) is a common type. And, the optimum design of wind turbine to guarantee excellent power performance and its reliability in structure and longevity is a key technology in wind Industry. In this study, mathematical expressions based upon the conventional BEMT(blade element momentum theory) applying to basic 1MW wind turbine blade configuration design. Power coefficient and related flow parameters, such as Prandtl's tip loss coefficient, tangential and axial flow induction factors of the wind turbine analyzed systematically. X-FOIL was used to acquire lift and drag coefficients of the 2-D airfoils and we use Viterna-Corrigan formula to interpolate the aerodynamic characteristics in post-stall region. In order to predict the performance characteristics of the blade, a performance analysis carried out by BEMT method. As a results, axial and tangential flow factors, angle of attack, power coefficient investigated in this study.

The prediction of thermal effects in lithography projection objective plays a significant role in the real-time dynamic compensation of thermal aberrations. For the illuminated lithography projection objective, this paper applies finite element analysis to get the temperature distribution, surface deformation and stress data. To improve the efficiency, a temperature distribution function model is proposed to use for the simulation of thermal aberrations with the help of optical analysis software CODE V. SigFit is approved integrated optomechanical analysis software with the feature of calculating OPD effects due to temperature change, and it is utilized to prove the validation of the temperature distribution function. Results show that the impact of surface deformation and stress is negligible compared with the refractive index change; astigmatisms and 4-foil aberrations dominate in the thermal aberration, about 1.7 λ and 0.45 λ. The system takes about one hour to reach thermal equilibrium and the contrast of the imaging of dense lines get worse as time goes on.

Superconducting $MgB_2$ fibers are in-situ grown by a diffusion method. The fibers are prepared by exposing B filaments to Mg vapor inside a folded Ta foil over a wide range of temperature and growth time. The materials are sealed inside a quartz tube by gas welding. The as - grown fibers are characterized by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x - ray analysis. The fibers have a diameter of about $110{\mu}m$. Surface morphology of the fibers looks dependent on growth temperature and mixing ratio of Mg and B. Radial distribution of Mg ions into B is observed and analyzed over the cross - sectional area. Transport properties of the $MgB_2$ fibers are examined by a physical property measurement system. The $MgB_2$ fibers grown at $900^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours show a superconducting transition at 39.8K with ${\Delta}T_c<$ 2.0 K. Resistance at room temperature $MgB_2$ is 3.745 $\Omega$ and residual resistivity ratio (RRR) is estimated as 4.723.

This study presents computational analysis of aerodynamic characteristics of two-dimensional airfoil sections with elastic flap attached at the trailing edge. EDISON_CFD was utilized to simulate the incompressible turbulent flow around the foil and MIDAS_IT was employed to estimate the deflection of the flap under the pressure loading. Using iterative procedure, the terminal deflection was estimated and the resulting lift-drag ratio indicates that the favorable effect of the flap is expected within certain amount of angle of attack.

Structures can be evaluated their health status by allowable loading criteria. These criteria can be determined by the maximum strain. Therefore, in order to detect this maximum strain of structures, fiber optic Bragg grating(FBG) sensor probes are newly designed and fabricated to perform the memorizing detection even if the sensor system is on-and-off. The probe is constructed with an FBG optical fiber embedded in silver epoxy. When the load is applied and removed on the structure, the residual strain remains in the silver epoxy to memorize the maximum strain effect. In this study, a commercial Al-foil bonded FBG sensor probe was tested to investigate the detection feasibility at first. FBG sensor probes with silver epoxy were fabricated as three different sizes. The detection feasibility of maximum strain was studied by doing the tensile tests of CFRP specimens bonded with these FBG sensor probes. It was investigated the sensitivity coefficient defined as the maximum strain divided by the residual strain. The highest sensitivity was 0.078 of the thin probe having the thickness of 2 mm.

The linear type flux pump aims to compensate a little bit decremental persistent current of the HTS magnet in NMR and MRI spectrometers. The flux pump mainly consists of DC bias coil, 3-phase AC coil and Nb foil. The persistent current in closed superconductive circuit can be easily adjusted by the 3-phase AC current, its frequency and the DC bias current. In the experiment, it has been investigated that the flux pump can effectively charge the current in the load coil of 543 mH for various frequencies in 18 minutes under the DC bias of 10 A and the AC of 5 $A_{rms}$. The maximum magnitudes of pumping current and load magnet voltage are 0.72 A/min and 20 ㎷, respectively. Based on simulation results by the FEM are proved to nearly agree with experimental ones.

Graphene has drawn great interests because of its distinctive band structure and physical properties[1]. A few of the practical applications envisioned for graphene include semiconductor applications, optoelectronics (sola cell, touch screens, liquid crystal displays), and graphene based batteries/super-capacitors [2-3]. Recent work has shown that excellent electronic properties are exhibited by large-scale ultrathin graphite films, grown by chemical vapor deposition on a polycrystalline metal and transferred to a device-compatible surface[4]. In this paper, we focussed our scope for the understanding the graphene growth at different conditions, which enables to control the growth towards the application aimed. The graphene was grown using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) with methane and hydrogen gas in vacuum furnace system. The grown graphene was characterized using a scanning electron microscope(SEM) and Raman spectroscopy. We changed the growth temperature from 900 to $1050^{\circ}C$ with various gas flow rate and composition rate. The growth condition for larger domain will be discussed.

In this study, numerical simulations were performed to evaluate the current loads acting on the multi-legged underwater robot "Crabster" with a variety of incident angles using the ANSYS-CFX package. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations were solved to simulate the fluid flow around Crabster to calculate the forces and moments induced by incoming currents with various angles. First, to assess the posture stability of the body, the forces and moments were calculated with various incident angles when the current acted in the vertical and horizontal directions. Next, two forms of legs (box and foil types) were evaluated to determine the hydrodynamic force variation. Finally, the current forces and moments acting on the Crabster body with the legs attached were estimated.

This study was carried out with two goals. One was the development of a model of a wind turbine blade airfoil and the other was the application of this folding blade. In general, in large-sized (MW) wind turbines, damage is prevented because of the use of a pitch control system. On the other hand, pitch control is not performed in small wind turbines since equipment costs and maintenance costs are high, and therefore, the blade will cause serious damage. The wind turbine proposed in this study does not require maintenance, and the blades do not break during high winds because they are folded in accordance with changes in the wind speed. But generators are not cut-out, while maintaining a constant angle will continue to produce. The focus of this study, the wind turbine is continued by folding blade system in strong winds and gusts without stopping production.
