Combustion test facility for liquid rocket engine using kerosene and liquid oxygen has been developed for the purpose of cooling and performance study. Test engine of thrust under 1.0 KN can be evaluated, and the real combustion test ensures a good operation of the combustion test facility. Combustion test facility will be modified to supply natural gas and liquefied natural gas as fuel and to give a regenerative cooling test.

The CBTC(Communication Based Train Control) system, a recent train control system, is a wireless communication based train control system that is operated in the moving block system control by tracking trains in real time. In additioin, the system helps to increase the volume of traffic by shortening driving headways through controlling moving block system control. Furthermore, driverless modes are performed by controlling ATP(Automatic Train Protection)/ATO(Automatic Train Operation). In this paper, controllable elements in ATO driverless train control system, affecting comfortable ride, will be analysed and applied to CBTC train control system that developed by POSCO ICT. Finally, the test results of improved comfortable ride will be showed by appling the developed system to the Gyeong-san light rail transit test track.

An AMR(Adaptive Multi-Rate) speech coding algorithm has been adopted as a standard speech codec for IMT-2000. It is based on the algebraic CELP, and consists of eight speech coding modes having the bit rate from 4.75 kbit/s to 12.2 kbit/s. It also contains the VAD(Voice Activity Detector), SCR (Source Controlled Rate) operation, and error concealment scheme for robustness in a radio channel. The bit rate of AMR is changed on a frame basis depending on the channel condition. In this paper, we introduced AMR speech coding algorithm and performed the real-time implementation using TMS320C6201, i.e., a Texas Instrument's fixed-point DSP. With the ANSI C source code released from ETSI and 3GPP, we convert and optimize the program to make it run in real time using the C compiler and assembly language. It is verified that the decoded result of the implemented speech codec on the DSP is identical with the PC simulation result using ANSI C code for test sequences. Also, actual sound input/output test using microphone and speaker demonstrates its proper real-time operation without distortions or delays.

In this paper, we describe a Control Element Drive Mechanism(CEDM) operation test using a Power Controller. By testing, we can catch the mechanical and electrical characteristics of CEDM and obtain the information about the improvement of CEDM and the design of CEDM power cabinet. The power controller for CEDM introduced in this paper can input firing angles directly into gate drive circuits of thyristors so that this method can be used to derive the maximum and minimum values of firing angles within available limits for a 3-phase half-wave rectifier. Angle inputs help us understand each coil's response characteristics. Since this power controller generates a serial sequence for CEDM insertion and withdrawal operations, we may judge whether CEDM works correctly as expected or not in each phase of a step movement.

Testing was conducted to determine the performance of a residential fuel cell system when subjected to DSS and WSS operation, especially for start-up and shut-down characteristics. In terms of start-up time, it took about 70min to start output power generation and stably to reach 1kW at cold start. Measurement of the characteristics of heat and power generation were carried out at start-up and shut-down time. Fuel gas is used for heating both reformer and stack from start-up to the beginning of power generation. In terms of start-up and shut-down characteristics, it was important to control the reformer temperature precisely. The average output water temperature during the rated output operation(960W) was $63.2^{\circ}C$ constantly. The results of the investigation are being used to develop a new test protocols for residential fuel cell system.

The linear accelerator of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory(PAL) will drive a top-up mode operation in PLS-II(Pohang Light Source-II). Due to this kind of the operation mode, the electron gun is expected to have shorter life time of the cathode. Further in the PLS-II, two gate valves will be installed in front of the electron gun. The distance between the pre-bunching section and the electron gun will increase by 400 mm compared to the existing system due to the insertion of these gate valves. As a result the incident electron beam. One of the goals to improve the beam pulse width is by incorporating suitable biased voltage. In this paper, we will present test results of beam pulse width as a function of different biased voltage and focusing solenoid coil.

This paper presents a load-shedding scheme using the Talmud rule in islanded microgrid operation based on a multiagent system. Load shedding is an intentional load reduction to meet a power balance between supply and demand when supply shortages occur. The Talmud rule originating from the Talmud literature has been used in bankruptcy problems of finance, economics, and communications. This paper approaches the load-shedding problem as a bankruptcy problem. A load-shedding scheme is mathematically expressed based on the Talmud rule. For experiment of this approach, a multiagent system is constructed to operate test islanded microgrids autonomously. The suggested load-shedding scheme is tested on the test islanded microgrids based on the multiagent system. Results of the tests are discussed.

Recently, load circuits and components of customer are various. Therefore failures of ELB(Earth Leakage Breaker) and MCCB(Molded case circuit breakers) are more frequent. Lite time of MCCB even if there is same units differ from environment, condition of operation. FEMCA is a efficiency method of system operation or maintenance for system reliability. We study on FMECA procedures and method. In this paper, we focused on FMECA application to MCCB life time test.

After the missile is launched, the umbilical connector should be separated from it without any physical interference. The umbilical separation device, for this purpose, was developed by means of new concept. Using the investigation of various methods to separate the umbilical connector, a suitable method was selected and a corresponding device was designed and manufactured. To ensure the performance of the developed device, numerical analysis and performance test were conducted and correction was followed. The umbilical separation device was applied to real system operation test and its operation performance was tested. In consequence, several problems were founded, however, good results were generally obtained.

Pneumatic cylinder is widely used as key component of various industry fields just like automation production line. Recently, people begin to pay attention to reduce development period and cost of pneumatic cylinder so research requirements of accelerated life test of pneumatic cylinder have been increased more than ever. In this research, we shall evaluate availability of acceleration model by statistical analysis of acceleration model's predicted value and life data which acquired in a real operation condition after finish accelerated life test of pneumatic cylinder. Also to predict the life of pneumatic cylinder in the operation condition we shall develop new acceleration model equations.
