Recently, superconductor flywheel energy storage systems (SFESs) have been developed for application to a regenerative power of train, a power quality improvement, the storage of distributed power sources such as solar and wind power, and a load leveling. As the high temperature superconductor (HTS) bearings offer dynamic stability without the use of active control, accurate analysis of the HTS bearing is very important for application to SFESs. Mechanical property of a HTS bearing is the main index for evaluating the capacity of an HTS bearing and is determined by the interaction between the HTS bulks and the permanent magnet (PM) rotor. HTS bearing rotor consists of PM and iron collector and the proper dimension design of them is very important to determine a supporting characteristics. In this study, we have optimized a rotor magnet array, which depends on the limited bulk size and performed various dimension layouts for thickness of the pole pitch and iron collector. HTS bearing rotor was installed into a single axis universal test machine for a stiffness test. A hydraulic pump was used to control the amplitude and frequency of the rotor vibration. As a result, the stiffness result showed a large difference more than 30 % according to the thickness of permanent magnet and iron collector. This is closely related to the bulk stiffness controlled by flux pining area, which is limited by the total bulk dimension. Finally, the optimized HTS bearing rotor was installed into a flywheel system for a dynamic stability test. We discussed the dynamic properties of the superconductor bearing rotor and these results can be used for the optimal design of HTS bearings of the 10kWh SFESs.

적변삼 표피조직의 적갈색의 침적물은 강력한 산화제에 의해서만 산화(탈색)되는 chelation power가 매우 큰 화학결합을 형성하고 있었다. CLSM으로 관찰한 결과, 적변삼 조직의바깥쪽으로 두껍게 침적물이 형성되어 있음이 확인되었으며, 조직의 형광강도를 이용하여 두께를 측정한 결과 약 120rm의 침적물이 축적되어 있음이 확인되었다. 또한 Spectrum분석 결과 적변삼 표피의 물질은 건강삼의 표피조직과는 다른 functional group을 포함하는 것으로 확인되었다. 건강삼과 적변삼의 표피조직을 강산과 강염으로 가수분해 하여도 조직에 침적되어 있는 적색의 물질은 용출되지 않았다. 적변삼과 건강삼의 표피조직과 뿌리의 각 부위별 총 페놀성화합물의 함량을 측정한 결과, 건강삼의 표피조직에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 페놀성 물질이 적변물질의 원인이 된다는 보고와 차이가 있는 것으로 페놀성 물질은 적변현상 유발의 직접적인 원인물질이 아님이 확인되었다. 따라서 인삼의 적변물질은 인삼뿌리의 유기성분(세포벽 분해산물, 세포내용물, azodicarbonamide 등)과 철이온 복합체로 추론되며, 이물질에 대한 계속적인 추적을 진행하고 있다.

In analyzing the operational characteristics of a rice whitening machine, the internal radial pressure of the machine was measured using strain gage equipment. Changes in cylinder and feed screw configurations, screen type, cylinder speed and counter-pressure levels were examined to determine their impact on the quality and quantity of milled rice and the performance of the machine. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The internal radial pressure in the whitening chamber varied with the surface condition of the grain being processed. During the first or second pass through the machine, pressure was relatively low, reached a maximum after two to three passes with combinations I and II, three to six with combination III and then began to fall. 2. The pitch of the feed screw and the size of the feed gate opening which determine the rate of entry of grain into the whitening chamber, appeared to be the most important factor aff-::cting the degree of radial pressure, quality and quantity of milled rice and the efficiency of the machine. Using a feed screw with a wide pitch (4.8cm), radial pressure was relatively high and head rice recovery ratio \vere quite low. In this case capacity and machine effic?iency were much higher than obtained when using a feed screw with a narrow pitch (2.3cm). Very significant responses in radial pressure, head rice recovery rates and machine capacity were observed with changes in cylinder speed and counter-pressure levels when using the wide pitch feed screw. 3. The characteristics of the screen which surrounds the whitening chamber had an important effect on whitening efficiency. The existence of small protuberances on the original screen resulted in significant increases in both machine capacity and efficiency but without a significant decrease in head rice recovery or development of excessive radial pressure. Further work is required to determine the effects of screen surface conditions and the shape of the cylinderical steel roller on the rate of bran removal, machine efficiency and recovery rates. The size of the slotted perforations 0:1 the screen affects total milled rice recovery. The opening size on the original screen was fabricated to accommodate the round shape of Japonica rice varieties but was not suitable for the more slender Indica type. Milling Indica varieties with this screen resulted in a reduction in total milled rice recovery. 4. An increase in cylinder speed from 380 to 820 rpm produced a positive effect on head rice recovery for all machine combinations at every level of counter-pressure used in the tests. Head rice recovery was considerably lower at 380rpm using a wide screw pitch when compared to the results obtained at speeds from 600 to 820 r.p.m. The effects of cylinder speed On radial pressure, capacity and machine efficiency showed contrasting results, depending on the width of the feed screw pitch. With a narrow feed screw pitch (2.3cm), a direct proportional relationship was observed bet?ween cylinder speed and both radial pressure and machine efficiency. In contrast, using a 4.8 centimeter pitch feed roller produced a series of inverse relationships between the above variables. Based on the results of this study it is recommended when milling Indica type long grain rice varieties that the cylinder speed of the original machine be increased from 500-600 rmp up to a minimum of 800 rpm to obtain a greater abrasive effect between the grain and the screen. The pitch of the feed screw should be also reduced to decr?ease the level of internal radial pressure and to obtain higher machine efficiency and increased quality of milled rice with increased cylinder speeds. Further study on the interaction between cylinder speed and feed screw pitch is recommended. 5. An increase in the counter pressure level produced a negative effect On the head rice recovery with an increase in radial pressure, capacity, and machine efficiency over all combinations and at every level of cylinder speed. 6. Head rice recovery rates were conditioned primarily by the pressure inside the whitening chamber. According to the empirical cha racteristics curve developed in this study, the relationships of head rice recovery ($Y_h$) and machine capacity ($Y_c$/TEX>) to internal radial pressure ($X_p$) followed an inverse quadratic function and a linear function respectively: $$Y_h^\Delta=\frac{1}{{1.4383-0.2951X_p^\ast+0.1425X_p^{\ast\ast}}^2} , (R^2=0.98)$$$$Y_c^\Delta=-305.83+374.37X_p^{\ast\ast}, (R^2=0.88)$$The correlation between capacity and power consumption per unit of brown rice expressed in the following exponential function: $$Y_c^\Delta=1.63Y_c^{-0.7786^\{\ast\ast}, (R^2=0.94)$$These relationships indicate that when radial pressure increases above a certain range (1. 6 to 2.0 kg/$cm^2$ based On the results of the experiment) head ricerecovery decrea?ses in a quadratic relation with a inear increase in capacity but without any decrease in power consump tion per unit of brown rice. On the other hand, if radial pressure is below the range shown above, power consumption increases dramatically with a lin?ear decrease in capacity but without significant increases in head rice recovery. During the operation of a given whitening machine, the optimum radial pressure range or the correct capacity range should be selected by controlling the feed rate and/or counter-pressure keeping in mind the condition of the grain, particulary the hardness. It was observed that the total number of passes is related to radial pessure level, feed rate and counter-pressure level. The higher theradial pressure the fewer num?ber of pass required but with decreased head rice recovery. In particular, when using high feed rates, the total number of passes should be increased to more than three by reducing the counter-pressure level to avoid decreaseases in head rice recovery (less than 65 percent head rice recovery on the basis of brown rice) at every cylinder speed. 7. A rapid rise in grain temperature seemed to have a close relationship with the pressure generated inside the whitening chamber and, subsequently with head rice reco?very rates. The higher the rate of increase, the lower were the resulting head rice recoveries.

최근 스텐트 시술의 수학적인 분석은 스텐트의 위치와 기계적인 반응을 측정하는 여러 가지 툴이 개발됨에 따라 발전하고 있다. 그러나 기존의 연구의 경우, 전산모사 실험을 통해 여러 요소에 따른 변형 정도 및 응력 분포, 팽창력 등과 같은 성능평가에 대한 연구가 주류를 이루며 전산모사 실험을 통한 응력 분포 및 변형 정도에 대한 소프트웨어의 검증은 거의 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 만능재료 시험기를 이용한 실험을 통해 얻은 결과와 전산모사 실험 결과의 유의성 검증을 통해 해당 전산 모사용 소프트웨어를 통한 전산모사 실험 결과에 신뢰성을 부여하였다. 또한 이를 토대로 전산모사 실험을 통해 스텐트 피막 유무에 따른 스텐트의 응력분포를 분석하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 전산모사 실험 데이터와 실제 인장 시험 데이터를 통한 유의성 검증을 하고자 하였다. 스텐트의 연결 부분에 대해 유한요소 해석법을 적용하여 전산모사 실험을 수행한 결과, 178.93 MPa의 최대응력으로 인장시험 결과인 184.23 MPa와 거의 유사한 값을 가졌으며, 이를 통해 인장시험 결과와 전산모사 결과가 유의성을 가짐을 검증할 수 있었다. 또한 피막 유무에 따른 스텐트의 전산모사 실험을 통해 피막에서는 접촉부, 나이티놀에서는 연결부에서 최대 응력이 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 피막이 있는 경우에는 피막의 장력으로 인해 연결부분에서 형상을 유지하고 있으나 피막이 없는 경우에는 이격 및 교차부에서 슬립이 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들을 통해 스텐트 설계 초기에 있어 해당 전산모사용 소프트웨어를 통해 해석을 수행하여 그에 따른 해석 결과를 설계에 반영함으로써 설계 변경을 최소화할 수 있고, 이에 따라 양질의 설계 품질 확보가 가능할 것으로 사료된다.
