The feasibility of synthesizing SiC-AlN solid solution by field-activated combustion synthesis was demonstrated. At lower fields of 8-16.5V/cm, composites of AlN-rich and SiC-rich phases were synthesized, but at fields of 25-30 V/cm, the product was a 2H structure solid solution. Combustion synthesis of the solid solution by nitridation of aluminum with silicon carbide under a nitrogen gas pressure of 4-8 MPa was also investigated. The maximum combustion temperature and wave propagation velocity were found to be influenced by the electric field in the field-activated combustion synthesis, and by the green density and nitrogen pressure in the combustion nitridation. In both cases the formation of solid solutions is complete within seconds, considerably faster than in conventional methods which require hours.

Experimental investigation on the performance of dual-evaporator refrigeration system with an ejector has been carried out. In this study, a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant R134a is chosen as a working fluid. The condenser and two-evaporators are made as concentric double pipes with counter-flow type heat exchangers. Experiments were performed by changing the inlet and outlet temperatures of secondary fluids entering condenser, high-pressure evaporator and low-pressure evaporator at test conditions keeping a constant compressor speed. When the external conditions (inlet temperatures of secondary fluid entering condenser and one evaporator) are fixed, results show that coefficient of performance (COP) increases as the inlet temperature of the other evaporator rises. It is also shown that the COP decreases as the mass flaw rate ratio of suction fluid to motive fluid increases. The COP of dual-evaporator refrigeration system with an ejector is superior to that of a single-evaporator vapor compression system by 3 to 6%.

Sasol Advanced Synthol Reactor was divided into two chambers by grid plate perforated with diffuser holes. The reactor has high stress level beacuse of membrane stress due to internal pressure, thermal stress due to temperature difference and local stress due to structural discontinuity at the juncture of grid plate and shell. Moreover, geometric nonlinear behaviors may appear in the grid plate because of pressure difference between two chambers. In order to survey the stress level and geometric nonlinear behaviors around grid plate, heat transfer analysis, linear static analysis and geometric nonlinear analysis were performed using NISA II developed by EMRC. This paper demonstrates the result of accessment for linear static and geometric nonlinear analysis under various load combinations.

Nano Fe-6.5wt%Si powders have been synthesized by mechano-chemical process (MCP) for an application of soft magnetic core. Owing to hard and brittle characteristics of Fe-6.5Si nano powders having large surface area, it is very difficult to reach high density more than 70% of theoretical density (~7.4 g/$cm_3$) by cold compaction. To overcome such problem a magnetic pulsed compaction (MPC), which is one of dynamic compaction techniques, was applied. The green density was achieved about 78% (~5.8 g/$cm_3$) by MPC at room temperature.

In this research project, development of methodology to measure the thickness of pipes in the wide range using magnetic field. The magnetic field spreading in the sensor and the plate was modeled in the cases of the various thicknesses in plate. Based on the analysis, sensors were designed, manufactured and tested to optimize the specifications of the sensor. The sensor can be used in high temperature through calibration. And the uncertainty of the sensor was estimated.

Since the oil shocks of 1970s, the quality of the fuel oil for marine diesel engines has become more degarded than ever. When the poorer quality fuel is burned, carbon residues of the fuel oil cause blockage of the fuel injection valve nozzle and troubles of fuel injection system. The mis-firing of engine occurs due to the decrease of fuel quantity injected, the decrease of compression pressure in the slow speed range, the increase of fuel leaked and the high ignition temperature of degraded fuel etc. This paper is to investigate theoretically the effects of mis-firing on the crankshaft axial vibration of diesel engine. The cylinder pressure in operation is calculated by the computer aided simulation of closed cycle for a large two-stroke diesel engine and also the exciting force of axial vibration and the resonance amplitudes are calculated. And then, the condition of normal state, misfiring and one-cylinder cut-off operation are analyzed. The results of calculations show good agreements with those of the actual measurements.

Car muffler has the role to form the exhaust gas from high temperature- pressure to lower level and reduce the generated noise. Because of this role, its durability decrease as deformation by heat is occurred. This study is to analyze the flow of exhaust gas inside muffler and its coupled thermal deformation with 3-D modeling and ANSYS. There is the fastest flow at the exit of muffler with the maximum velocity of 54 m/s. And the maximum deformation or equivalent stress is shown at this model respectively as 0.00435 mm or 3414.4 MPa by the influence of heat and pressure at part of intersection with inlet and body of muffler.

A Study of Improvement in Reactor Thermal Power Measurement Method using Kalman Filter. The objectives of the safety analysis of nuclear power plants are to maintain the surface temperature of fuel and fuel cladding within limit value in case of Loss of Coolant accident (LOCA) so that it ensures the safety and reliability of nuclear power plants. The new technique evaluating the reactor power and improvement of existing plant system increase the safety margin of nuclear power plant operation, and accordingly, economic effect will be anticipated. Hereby, 1 would like to introduce reactor power measurement method using Kalman filter that enables to calculate the reactor power more precisely combining the parameters, for example, turbine output as the 1 st stage pressure of high pressure turbine, and reactor power using energy equilibrium relation. It is expected that the new technique will enhance the accuracy of measurement of reactor power and maintain the reliability of nuclear power operation by increasing operational safety margin, and gain the economic benefit

We prepared CoCr thin film for perpendicular magnetic recording media by facing targets sputtering system(FTS system) which can deposit a high quality thin films in plasma-free state and wide range of working pressure. In this study, we investigated that the effect of sputtering condition , that Argon gas pressure and substrate temperature, on magnetic and crystallographic characteristic of CoCr thin film as well as the variation perpendicular coercivity in changing of film's thickness. Crystallographic and magnetic characteristic of prepared thin films were evaluated by x-ray fractometry(XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM) and kerr hysteresis loop measurement.
