The effect of blanching time and power settings of microwave oven on the ascorbic acid retention in seven kinds of vegetables were investigated. The vegetable were blanched for 120 or 180 sec. at three different power setting, 650 watt(high power), 500 watt(medium power) and 160 watt(low power). The retentions of ascorbic acid in cabbage, garland chrysanthemum, mungbean sprout, amaranth and carrot were higher when they were blanched at the high power than those blanced at the lower power stettings. Blanching of spinach and yul-moo(small korean radish) showed that the vitamin was more retained by the medium power heating. Blanching at the low power revealed that the ascorbic acid retention was reduced remarkably as the blanching time increased. From the scoring difference tests the 10-panel members indicated that the texture of three-tested vegetables was more acceptable when they were blanched at the high power setting.

This study aims to provide distributors with several implications on the channel strategy by testing factors which influence on the offsetting investment. Medium-sized distributor facing a relatively inferior power can cause profit vulnerability from large manufacurer's opportunistic behaviors. At the same time, we tested the relationship commitment to the relation with manufacturer as another alternative strategy taken by medium-sized distributer. For this research, samples from dealers in oil-petroleum refinery industry were selected and the data was collected using mail survey. The data was analyzed utilizing validity test, reliability test, factor analysis, correlation analysis and LISREL. The major analyzed results are as follows: First, the offsetting investment of preventing loss from manufacturer's opportunism didn't affect medium-sized distributor's sales empirically. Second, the hypothesis that the more the medium-sized distributor's transaction specific assets which they invest in the transactional relationship with manufacturer, the more the safeguard against the expected opportunism of manufacturer was not supported by the results. Third, the more use of coercive power by the manufacturer, the more increase in the perception of expected opportunism of manufacturer by the medium-sized distributor, it make stimulates offsetting investment as safeguard by medium-sized distributor and it has negative effect on developing commitment. Finally, the large manufactures dealing with a medium-sized distributor firm which had a reputation of fairness didn't make offsetting investment as a response for distributor's opportunism.

A novel algorithm is proposed to regulate the neutral point potential in neutral point clamped three-level inverters. Oscillations of the neutral point potential and an unbalanced dc-link voltage cause distortions of the output voltage. Large capacitors, which make the application costly and bulky, are needed to eliminate oscillations. Thus, the algorithm proposed in this paper utilizes the finite-control-set model predictive control and the multistage medium vector to solve these issues. The proposed strategy consists of a two-step prediction and a cost function to evaluate the selected multistage medium vector. Unlike the virtual vector method, the multistage medium vector is a mixture of the virtual vector and the original vector. In addition, its amplitude is variable. The neutral point current generated by it can be used to adjust the neutral point potential. When compared with the virtual vector method, the multistage medium vector contributes to decreasing the regulation time when the modulation index is high. The vectors are rearranged to cope with the variable switching frequency of the model predictive control. Simulation and experimental results verify the validity of the proposed strategy.

Recently, a project to build a carbon zero island with no carbon emissions has been carried out by replacing diesel generators with renewable energy sources in island areas where diesel generators supplied local loads as independent systems. To minimize damage to the lives of islanders, low noise wind generators should be installed by adjusting the rated speed. In islands with low loads, wind turbines that are more efficient than medium-sized wind turbines should be installed. In this study, the generator field analysis and characteristics were analyzed to develop 230 kW-class low wind medium-wind turbine technology. The electromagnetic field analysis program used Maxwell. As a result, the cogging torque was reduced, and the initial maneuver wind speed and loss value were lowered. Hence, the output amount was increased with high efficiency.

The plane elasticity problem of collinear cracks in a layered medium is investigated. The medium is modeled as bonded structure constituted from a surface layer and a semi-infinite substrate. Along the bond line between the two dissimilar homegeneous constituents, it is assumed that as interfacial zone having the functionally graded, nonhomogeneous elastic modulus exists. The layered medium contains three collinear cracks, one in each constituent material oriented perpendicular to the nominal interfaces. The stiffness matrix formulation is utilized and a set of homogeneous conditions relevant to the given problem is readily satisfied. The proposed mixed boundary value problem is then represented in the form of a system of integral equations with Cauchy-type singular kernels. The stress intensity factors are defined from the crack-tip stress fields possessing the standard square-root singular behavior. The resulting values of stress intensity factors mainly address the interactions among the cracks for various crack sizes and material combinations.

본 논문에서는 고속데이터 전송을 위한 중 전안 전력선로의 특성을 표피효과를 고려한 전송 파라메타로써 채널특성을 분석하였다. 중전압 통신 선로의 특성임피던스는 고주파 개념을 이용한 산란 계수법으로 구하였으며 광대역 특성을 갖는 결합기를 이용하여 0∼30MHz 주파수 대역에서 중전압 전력선의 채널특성을 측정하였다. 통신 선로의 표피효과를 고려하였을 경우 주파수에 대한 선로의 감쇠 특성은 선형적으로 감소하였으나 표피효과를 고려하지 않았을 경우에는 선로의 감쇠 특성은 급격히 감소함은 알 수가 있었다. 임피던스 특성은 주파수가 높을수록 임피던스 크기가 점점 낮아지며 변화량도 적어짐을 알 수가 있었다.

본 논문에서는 상용전원 주파수(60 Hz)를 사용하여 중전력 무선전력전송을 구현한 것이다. 일반적인 자기유도 무선전력전송 장치는 수십 kHz 이상 사용하기 때문에 상용전원 주파수(60 Hz)를 그대로 사용할 수 없고, 교류/직류 변환기를 사용하여 60 Hz 전원주파수를 DC로 만들고, 고주파 파워앰프를 사용하여 DC를 수십 KHz로 만들어서 사용한다. 자기유도 무선전력전송에서 교류/직류 변환기와 고주파 파워앰프를 제거하고, 송전 공진탱크, 송전코일, 수전 공진탱크, 수전코일 만으로 구성한 상용전원 주파수를 사용하는 극저주파 무선전력전송 시스템을 구현하고, 무선전력전송 실험으로 검증하였다.

This paper investigates a power supply of medium voltage with enhanced ignition characteristics for plasma torches. A series resonant half-bridge topology is presented as a suitable ignition circuitry. The ignition circuitry is integrated into the main power conversion system of a multi-phase staggered three-level dc-dc converter with a diode front-end rectifier. A plasma torch rated at 3MW, 2kA and having a physical size of 1m is selected to be the high enthalpy source for a waste disposal system. The steady-state and transient operations of a plasma torch are simulated. The parameters of a Cassie-Mary arc model are calculated based on 3D magneto-hydrodynamic simulations. The circuit simulation waveform shows that the ripple of the arc current can be maintained within ${\pm}10%$ of its rated value under the presence of a load disturbance. This power conversion configuration provides a high enough ignition voltage, around 5KA, during the ignition phase and high arc stability under the existence of arc disturbance noise resulting in a high-performance plasma torch system.

In this paper, a wideband power efficient 2.2 GHz - 4.9 GHz Medium Power Amplifier (MPA), has been designed and fabricated using $0.8{\mu}m$ SiGe BiCMOS process technology. Passive elements such as parallel-branch spiral inductor, metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor and three types of resistors are all integrated in this process. This MPA is a two stage amplifier with all matching components and bias circuits integrated on-chip. A P1dB of 17.7 dBm has been measured with a power gain of 8.7 dB at 3.4 GHz with a total current consumption of 30 mA from a 3 V supply voltage at $25^{\circ}C$. The measured 3 dB bandwidth is 2.7 GHz and the maximum Power Added Efficiency (PAE) is 41 %, which are very good results for a fully integrated Medium PA. The fabricated circuit occupies a die area of $1.7mm{\times}0.8mm$.
