Self-excited pulse jet is a specific nozzle with a closed chamber which can change a continuous jet into a pulse one. Energy of the pulse jet can be output not only unevenly but also with multifrequency. With the peak pressure of pulse jet, the hitting power would be 2~2.5 times higher than that of continuous jet. In order to reveal the correlation between the self-excited pulse frequency and nozzle diameter ratio, nozzle spacing and operating pressure, the model of 3D unsteady cavitation model has been used. We found that with the same nozzle structure parameters and the different operating pressure, the self-excited frequency and the width of peak crest are different, but the wave profiles are similar. With FFT, we also found that the less bandwidth of amplitude in low frequency range will lead to the wider wave crest of outlet velocity in its time domain, and the larger force of the strike will be gained. By studying the St of self-excite nozzle, not only the frequency of a certain nozzle can be predicted, but also a nozzle structure with a certain frequency can be designed.

Clean and renewable energy technologies using ocean energy give us non-polluting alternatives to fossil and nuclear-fueled power plants to meet establishment of countermeasures against the global warming and growing demand for electrical energy. Among the ocean energy resources, wave power takes a growing interest because of its enormous amount of potential energy in the world. Therefore, various types of wave power conversion system to capture the energy of ocean waves have been developed. However, suitable turbine type is not normalized yet because of relatively low efficiency of the turbine systems. The purpose of this study is to investigate the internal flow and performance characteristics of a cross-flow type hydro turbine, which will be built in a caisson for wave power generation. Numerical simulation using a commercial CFD code is conducted to clarify the effects of the turbine rotation speed and flow rate variation on the turbine characteristics. The results show that the output power of the cross-flow type hydro turbine with symmetric nozzle shape is obtained mainly from Stage 2. Turbine inlet configuration should be designed to obtain large amount of flow rate because the static pressure and absolute tangential velocity are influenced considerably by inlet flow rate.

Discharge analysis technique for dielectric liquid was presented by using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) under a lightning impulse incorporating two-phase flow phenomena which described gas and liquid phases in discharge space. Until now, the response of step voltage has been extensively explored, but that of lightning impulse voltage was rarely viewed in the literature. We, therefore, developed an analyzing technique for dielectric liquid in a tip-sphere electrode stressed by a high electric field. To capture the bubble phase, the Heaviside function was introduced mathematically and the material functions for the ionization, dissociation, recombination, and attachment were defined in liquid and bubble, respectively. By using this numerical setup, the molecular dissociation and ionization mechanisms were tested under low and high electric fields resulted from the lightning impulse voltage of 1.2/50 ${\mu}s$. To verify our numerical results, the velocity of electric field wave was measured and compared to the previous experimental results which can be viewed in many papers. Those results had good agreement with each other.

This military aircraft requires the compatibility evaluation of armed installations in accordance with guidelines and standards. In order to ensure the influence of gas-air mixtures caused by gunfire of the supersonic aircraft, CFD analysis of internal and external flows was performed and the results carried out and discussed. The low velocity vortex was formed due to the shape of the Gun Port, after firing the gas-air mixture was evacuated to the outside flow, where it moved to the front of the aircraft and soon merged with the aircraft flow field.

This paper deals with the temperature characteristics according to the cooling medium and the duct size in model transformers. For the analysis and the temperature-rise tests, two 400kVA model transformers have been manufactured. One has been filled with the alpha oil as the cooling medium and constructed the duct sizes of $3\textrm{mm}$ and $5\textrm{mm}$ in the low-voltage and high-voltage windings respectively. The other has been filled the beta oil and the duct sizes were $4\textrm{mm}$ and $6\textrm{mm}$. The temperature-rise tests have been performed by the back-to-back method and the load factor has been controlled the range of 90%∼130%. The temperature values have been measured by the thermocouple and from the sixteen points in each transformer. A commercial CFD program "FLUENT" has been used for the analysis of temperature distribution. The geometry of transformer has been modeled to 3-dimensional by using the hybrid calculation mesh including the radiator. And also, the natural convection velocity has been measured at the oil top position, and compared with the calculated results.

In the GPS/DR integrated system, the GPS position(or velocity) is used to compensate the DR output and to calibrate errors of the DR sensor. This synergistic relationship ensures that the calibrated DR accuracy can be maintained even when the GPS signal is blocked. Because of the observability problem, however, the DR sensors are not sufficiently calibrated when the vehicle speed is low. This problem can be solved if we use a multi-antenna GPS receiver for attitude determination instead of conventional one. This paper designs a two-antenna GP receiver integrated with DR sensors. The proposed integration system has three remarkable features. First, the DR sensor can be calibrated regardless of the vehicle speed with the aid of two-antenna GPS receiver. Secondly, the search space of integer ambiguities in GPS carrier-phase measurements is reduced to a part of the surface of the sphere using DR heading. Thirdly, the detection resolution of cycle-slips in GPS carrier-phase measurements is improved with the aid of DR heading. From the experimental result, it is shown that the search space is drastically reduced to about 3/20 of the non-aided case and the cycle-slips of 1 or half cycle can be detected.

Superconducting flux flow transistor (SFFT) is based on a control of the Abrikosov vortex flowing along a channel. The induced voltage by moving of the Abrikosov vortex in an SFFT is greatly affected by the thickness, the width, and the length of channel. In order to fabricate a reproducible channel in the SFFT, we studied the variation of the critical characteristics of ${YBa}_2{Cu}_3{O}_7-\delta(YBCO)$ thin films with the etching time using ICP (Inductively coupled plasma) system. From the simulation, it was certified that the vortex velocity was increased in a low pinning energy at channel width 0,5 mm. The surfaces of YBCO thin film were etched by ICP etching system. We observed the etched channel surfaces by AFM (Atomic Force Microscope) and measured the critical current density with etching time. As a measured results, the etching thickness of channel should be optimized to fabricated a flux flow transistor with specified characteristics.

A density of phonon is increased by application of electric field. At this time the phonon which has higher energy than around is called hot phonon is disappeared after 7 picosecond by scattering with electron and loss energy. Since the lifetime of phonon is very short, the effects of hot phonon can be neglected in the low speed semiconductor device, but it must be considered in high speed devices. DC and AC electric fields are applied to bulk GaAs, and the density of phonon is obtained and analyzed for its effects on electron velocity and electron distribution using Monte Carlo simulation method. Under high electric filed the density of hot phonon increased and energy of hot phonon is decreased by scattering with electron on the other hand the energy of electron is increased. Therefore electron move from central valley of conduntion band to satellite vallies and the valocity of electron decrease since the mass of electron in satellite vally is heavier than central vally. In millimeter wave frequencies, the effects of hot phonon increased at higher frequencies.

Blast vibrations produced by emulsion explosives, controlled explosives and no vibration Kinecker through test blasting have been analyzed. Test area is mainly composed of andesite of which uniaxial compressive strength is $1,260kg/cm^2$. The empirical scaling formula from a logarithmic plot of peak particle velocity versus scaled distance have been determined and particle velocities with scaled distance have been evaluated for each explosive type. Vibration level of no vibracon KINECKER is lower than one of the controlled vibration blasting by about 30.71% and also lowers than one of the blasting of medium by about 50.94%.
