In currently developed engine condition monitoring systems, most field engine maintenance engineers have difficulties to use them in fields due to complexity, unpractical use, lack of understanding, etc. Therefore a practical usable engine condition monitoring system must be needed. This work proposes a practical performance condition monitoring of a small turbojet engine through comparing between the on-line performance monitoring data and the initial clean performance data calculated by the base engine performance model. Moreover the proposed monitoring system checks the gas path components' on-line health condition through comparing the component performance characteristics between the running engine represented as a deteriorated engine or a degraded engine and the base engine performance model represented as a clean engine. The proposed condition monitoring system is coded in a friendly GUI type program for easy practical application by a commercial tool, MATLAB/SIMULINK and LabVIEW.

Thermo-mechanical simulation of the friction stir butt welding process was performed for AA5083-H18 sheets, utilizing commercial FVM code, STAR-CCM+, which is based on Eulerian formulation. Temperature and strain rate histories along the material flow were calculated under the steady state condition and simulated temperature distributions (profiles and peak values) were compared with experiments for verification. It was found that by including proper thermal properties of the backing plate (anvil) the accuracy of the simulation results increased significantly.

Amoving aeration-membrane (MAM) bioreactor was employed for the production of 2$\mu$g/mL of tissue type Plasminogen Activator (tPA)in serum free medium from normal human fibroblast cells. This system could maintain high cell density for long periods of steady state conditions in perfusion cultivation. Under normal operating condition, shear stress was as low as 0.65 dynes/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at the agitation speed of 80 rpm. Even though cell density gradually decreased with increasing agitation speed, tPA production increased linearly with increasing shear stress within a moderate range. This culture system allowed production of 2$\mu$g tPA/mL while maintaining a high cell denisty of 1.0$\times$107 viable cell/mL.

Tumor hemodynamics in vascular state is numerically simulated using pressure node solution. The tumor angiogenesis pattern in our previous study is used for the geometry of vessel networks. For tumor angiogenesis, the equation that governed angiogenesis comprises a tumor angiogenesis factor (TAF) conservation equation in time and space, which is solved numerically using the Galerkin finite element method. A stochastic process model is used to simulate vessel formation and vessel. In this study, we use a two-dimensional model with planar vessel structure. Hemodynamics in vessel is assumed as incompressible steady flow with Newtonian fluid properties. In parent vessel, arterial pressure is assigned as a boundary condition whereas a constant terminal pressure is specified in tumor inside. Kirchhoff's law is applied to each pressure node to simulate the pressure distribution in vessel networks. Transient pressure distribution along with angiogenesis pattern is presented to investigate the effect of tumor growth in tumor hemodynamics.

In this 1st report, the relationship between pure creep properties and initial strain was studied and also its acoustic emission test was performed during creep test at 500, 600 and $700^{\circ}C$. And the applicability of the acoustic emission technique was investigated to analyze the quantitive relationship between all the pure properties (creep strength, creep repture time or creep life, steady state creep rate, total creep rate, creep strain, total creep strain, etc.) and the initial strains as well as to analyze AE properties during the pure creep loading condition.

Carbon monoxide-sensing behavior of Pt-SiC Schottky diodes. fabricated on the same SiC substrate have been systematically compared and analyzed as a function of carbon monoxide concentrati on and temperature by I-V and ${\Delta}I$-t methods under steady-state and transient condition. Adsorption activation energies of Carbon monoxide on the surface of Pt-SiC Schottky diodes is investigated in a high temperature range ($100{\sim}500^{\circ}C$). The optimal temperature for behavior sensing is $300^{\circ}C$ and saturation concentration is 200 ppm.

Domestic hydroelectric power plants has been manufactured as the design condition by the demand. Hydraulic turbine power plants operating at appointed load shall be operate stable in terms of pressure, discharge, rotational speed and torque. A performance guarantees for hydro turbines shall be contain, as a minimum, guarantees covering power, discharge and specific hydraulic energy, efficiency, maximum momentary overspeed and maximum momentary pressure and maximum steady-state runaway speed, as well as guarantees related to cavitation. But, present in Korea, the absence of testing laboratories and technical criteria for the performance test of small hydropower degrades the efficiency of the domestic hydropower machines, and makes it difficult to objectively evaluate the performance of hydro turbine. Therefore We planned making a basis of performance test of small hydropower turbine by using our flowmeter calibration system the largest one in Korea. We planned the maximum measurable power of hydro turbine will be 200 kW in our system.

To achieve good cryogenic circumstances by Gifford-McMahon cryocooler, we have to constitute optimal conditions with various factors for G-M cryocooler. In this study, cool-down characteristics were presented with some factors using brass matrix mesh (1st stage) and Pb ball (2nd stage) as regenerator materials for the heat exchangers. The effects of the variations of Helium gas pressure and cycle frequency on the cooling capacity of G-M cryocooler are investigated experimentally. The presented results could be summarized as follows : 1) As the steady state pressure increases, 'no load temperature' decreases but cooling capacity increases. 2) It is confirmed that the characteristics of the specific heat of the regenerator materials agree well with the cool-down characteristics of 10 K cryocooler.

A development of monopropellant thruster for microsatellite that uses concentrated hydrogen peroxide is described. Catalyst, the most important component in the thruster, was prepared and coated on a monolith honeycomb. Performance evaluation of thruster was peformed by considering the efficiency of characteristic velocity and ignition delay. As a result, 96.0% of $C^*$ efficiency was obtained at designed propellant flowrate and steady state operating condition.

This paper presents the control algorithm for maximum efficiency drives of an induction motor system with the high dynamic performance. This system uses a simple model of the induction motor that includes equations of iron losses. The model, which only requires the parameters of induction motor, is referred to a field-oriented frame. The minimum point of the input power can be obtained at the steady state condition. The reference torque and flux currents for the vector control of induction motors are calculated by the optimal efficiency control algorithm. The drive system with the proposed efficiency optimization controller has been implemented by a 32 bit floating point TMS320C32 DSP chip. The results show the effectiveness of the control strategy proposed for the induction motor drive.
