In this study, the flow behavior of Newtonian and non-Newtonian coating liquids inside slot die has been scrutinized for the purpose of optimal internal die design in slot coating system from three-dimensional computations by CFD Fluent solver. A hybrid slot die could be optimally designed by changing the chamber or manifold structure to guarantee the uniform velocity distribution of coating liquids at die exit. Especially, for the non-Newtonian coating liquids, the length of coat-hanger for the uniform coating has been properly chosen, according to the degree of their shearthinning properties.

MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) slot antenna that operates on the dual WiFi band(2.401~2.495GHz, 5.18~5.825GHz), in this paper, was studied. The basic theory for the slot design is based on the coupling between adjacent slot, and slots are fed by the each microstrip lines. Two slot antennas for the MIMO operation are located on the left and the right side of top of the metal notebook, and grounds between a notebook and two microstrip feeding lines are connected. Measurement of return loss showed under -6dB on entire design band, and isolation was below than -30dB. Radiation efficiency, average gain and peak gain for the left and the right slot were measured in the anechoic chamber, and showed good performances as 57.25%, -2.42dBi, 5.64dBi and 55.35%, -2.61dBi, 6.42dBi for the 2.4GHz band and 55.89%, -2.58dBi, 7.3dBi and 53.79%, -2.8dBi, 7.54dBi for the 5GHz band.

Conventional integral slot design tend to have a high cogging torque and large end turns which contribute to copper losses. The fractional slot is more effective compared to integral slot in the cogging torque and EMF waveform. The effectiveness of fractional slot can be maximized by selecting optimal pole to slot ratio. This paper presents the effect of pole to slot ratio on the cogging torque and EMF waveform in the fractional slotted permanent magnet(PM) motor. The effectiveness of the proposed designs had been confirmed by comparing cogging torque, and EMF waveform between conventional and new models which are analyzed by Finite Element Method(FEM).

The present study numerically investigates two-dimensional flow and heat transfer in the multiple confined impinging slot jet. Numerical simulations are performed for the different Reynolds numbers(Re=100 and 200) in the range of nozzles from 1 to 9 and height ratios(H/D) from 2 to 5, where H/D is the ratio of the channel height to the slot width. The vector plots of velocity profile, stagnation and averaged Nusselt number distributions are presented in this paper. The dependency of thermal fields on the Reynolds number, nozzle number and height ratio can be clarified by observing the Nusselt number as heat transfer characteristic at the stagnation point and impingement surface. The Nusselt number at the stagnation point of the central slot shows unsteadiness at H/D=3 and Re=200. The value of Nusselt number at the stagnation point of the central slot decreases with higher Reynolds number and number of nozzle although overall area averaged Nusselt number increases. Hence careful selection of geometrical parameters and number of nozzle are necessary for optimization of the heat transfer performance of multiple slot impinging jet.

In this study, the Coanda effect inducing bump was applied to improve the film cooling effectiveness on the flat plate with $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ angled rectangular slots. The slot length to width ratio was 6. A cylindrical cap shaped structure, called Coanda bump, was installed at the exit of the slot to generate Coanda effect. The width and height of the bump was 10.5 mm and 1 mm, respectively. The film cooling effectiveness was measured at the fixed blowing ratio, M=2.0, using pressure sensitive paint (PSP) technique. The mainstream velocity was 10 m/s and the turbulence intensity was about 0.5%. Results showed that the film cooling effectiveness for case of $30^{\circ}$ angled slot was higher than that of $45^{\circ}$ angled slot. It was found that there was no positive effect of Coanda effect on the overall averaged film cooling effectiveness for the $30^{\circ}$ angled slot. On the other hand, for the $45^{\circ}$ angled slot, the film cooling effectiveness was improved with the installation of the Coanda bump.

In this paper, we proposed the compensation structures for the enhanced directivity of CPW(Coplanar waveguide) directional couplers with finite-extent backed conductor. The proposed compensation structures are. realized by expanding the slot width between signal line and ground plane in center region of couplers. The CPW couplers with expanded slot have the same phase velocity for even and odd mode because of added inductance and changed capacitance appropriately, so the enhanced directivity is accomplished. The designed CPW directional couplers have good directivity and matching characteristic at center frequency in simulation and measurement.

The slot-die coating & calcination process was adopted to fabricate the long YBCO precursor films on the buffered metal tape for the $2^{nd}$ generation coated conductors. To obtain the smooth and crack-free surface of long YBCO precursor films, the parameters of slot-die coating and the process variables of calcination step must be optimized simultaneously in reel-to-reel method. Among the parameter of slot-die coating process, the viscosities of the precursor solution was controlled from 60cP to 200cP to obtain the thicker films from on single coating. The slot-die gap, the injection rate of precursor solution, the moving speed of buffered metal tape etc. are controlled lot the full coverage and smooth surface of YBCO precursor films. The slot-die coated films are moved through the tube furnace with predetermined heating profiles in humid oxygen ambient The YBCO precursor films was identifed with $Y_2O_3,\;BaF_2$, and CuO phase by XRD and consisted of fine grains of about 20nm size observed by FE-SEM. The YBCO films show the critical current density over $MA/cm^2$ using the precursor films formed by the continuous slot-die coating & calcination process.

Effect of the joint details on the stress distribution over a slot structure has been studied in order to improve its fatigue life using a finite element analysis. The joint details of interest are the radius and height of scallop at the stiffener as well as the mis-alignment between the stiffener and longitudinal member. For a slot structure currently used, the stiffener heel is subjected to the maximum stress for a given external load, where is a potential fatigue crack initiation site. The stresses at the stiffener heel and toe decrease both by increasing the scallop radius and more significantly by increasing the mis-alignment while no notable effect of the scallop height on it is appreciated. A proper combination of these factors makes it possible to reduce the stresses at the stiffener heel and In, theoretically, more than 50%. This is attributed to the modification of the stress distribution over the slot structure including the transition of the maximum stressed region from the stiffener heel to the slot surface of the transverse web. Such then results in a g[eat improvement of the fatigue life of the slot structure.

In this paper, a design method for a compact slot antenna fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW) is studied. A T-shaped tuning stub is inserted inside a narrow rectangular slot and the slot is impedance matched to the CPW feedline by adjusting the width, length, and position of the stub. The resonance frequency is adjustable by the slot length and the antenna size can be reduced by bending the slot. The resonance frequency and impedance matching property of the compact slot antenna are similar to those of the half-wavelength slot antenna, which enables one to design compact antenna of this type with ease. A compact slot antenna for 2.45-GHz ISM band is designed, fabricated on an FR4 substrate (dielectric constant of 4.4 and thickness of 0.8 mm), and experimentally tested. The measured results agree well with the simulations, which confirms the validity of this study. The fabricated compact slot antenna shows an impedance bandwidth of 200 MHz(2.32-2.52 GHz) for a VSWR < 2, which is suitable for 2.45-GHz ISM band (2.4-2.48 GHz). The measured radiation patterns show ${\infty}$-shaped directional pattern in the E-plane and nearly omni-directional pattern in the H-plane with a peak gain of 2.0 dBi, which are similar to those of a monopole antenna. The proposed antenna is expected to be suitable for the applications as antennas for WLAN, RFID, and mobile handset.

Since the slot line transmits electric and magnetic signals through the slot, the size of the slot greatly affects the signal power loss. In order to have low loss, the slot line is mainly used at a high frequency of above 3GHz on a substrate having a high dielectric constant(er). This paper proposes the 4:1 impedance transformer using a slot line on TLC-30 laminate (h=20mil, er=3.0; Taconic) being a relatively low dielectric constant at a frequency of 1.85GHz. In the proposed impedance transformer, the dielectric resonator is arranged on the slot line to reduce signal loss occurring at the slot line. The proposed 4:1 microstrip-slot line impedance transformer fabricated using a (Zr,Sn)TiO4 dielectric resonator(er=38) has the transmission loss(S21) of -0.375dB and the reflection value(S11) of -27.6dB at 1.855GHz. This confirms that the slot line can be stably used even in a low dielectric constant substrate and a low frequency region by using a dielectric resonator.
