Research on the high performance and strength thermoplastic/continuous fiber composites was performed. New concept of impregnating die for developing continuous strand and prepreg tape of engineering plastic/glass fiber was introduced and estimated. Fully impregnated prepreg strand and tape was successfully manufactured through the new pin structure of impregnating die and control of spreading variable. Also design variables for stability of increasing processing speed were shown. And tensile strength of prepreg tape manufactured in this study was much higher than composites made by other competition company.

Recently, studies about application of magnesium alloy sheet to automotive bodies are on the increase. For application to automotive bodies, researches about characteristics of resistance spot welding of magnesium alloy sheet are essential. Electrode life of resistance spot welding of magnesium alloy is very short due to sticking of magnesium alloy to copper alloy electrode. To increase electrode life, most effective method is inserting cover plate between electrode and magnesium sheet. But application of cover plate to actual process is difficult and decreases welding productivity. Process tape supplied automatically as cover plate can minimize lose of productivity and increase welding quality. In this study, resistance spot welding of magnesium alloy is carried out with applying process tape. Acceptable welding current region according to electrode force and welding time is determined.

Regionally averaged heat transfer distributions and friction factors in square channels with twisted tape inserts and with twisted tape inserts plus interrupted ribs are experimentally investigated. The effects of surface heating condition on heat transfer enhancement are also investigated. Each wall of the square channel is composed of isolated aluminum plates. The interrupted square ribs are arranged along the axial flow direction on the bottom wall only. Experimental tests are performed for Reynolds numbers ranging from 8,900 to 29,000. The results are compared with those of previous investigations for circular tube with axial interrupted ribs and twisted tape inserts.

Short-length and long-length Ni tapes were fabricated by powder processing, cold rolling and recrystallizatioon heat treatment. In the case of the short-length Ni tape, both in-plane and out-of-plane texture were less than $10^{\circ}$. In the case of the long-length Ni tape, the degree of texture is lower than that of the short-length Ni tape. The relationship between the texture formation and the processing parameter is reported.

Multi-stacked HTS tapes are needed to conduct large current in the power application. In this paper, magnetization losses of the multi-stacked YBCO coated conductor and the BSCCO tape have been measured and compared. Magnetization losses of single tape, 2-stacked, 3-stacked and 4-stacked HTS tapes have been presented in this paper. Multi-stacked tapes have been fabricated using face-to-face type stacking method. Measurements of magnetization loss were performed under various angle of external magnetic field to consider the anisotropic characteristics of HTS tapes. Test results show that loss density per unit volume decreased for both YBCO coated conductors and BSCCO tapes when the stacking number of tapes is increased. The magnetization losses of YBCO CC are larger than those of BSCCO tapes when the external magnetic field is increased.

Test results show that loss density per unit volume decreased for both YBCO coated conductors and BSCCO tapes when the stacking number of tapes is increased. As the external magnetic field decreased, the ratio of decrement has risen because the full penetration magnetic field(Bp) of the multi-stacked tape is larger than that of the single tape.

Characteristics of the break down current of HTS tape with different insulator are described. The various insulators are utilized for enduring the high voltage in superconducting power devices. The break down current of HTS tape largely depends on insulators wound round HTS tape. In this research, The break down currents of Bi-2223 tape, which is widely used for superconducting power devices are tested and discussed. It is expected that results from this study can be utilized as basic data in designing superconducting power devices.

AC loss is an important factor in the development of superconducting tapes and superconducting power applications. In this paper we measured and compared characteristics of BSCCO tape and YBCO Coated Conductor(YBCO CC). BSCCO tape was fabricated by PIT method. We measured critical current density and transport current loss of it. Also, YBCO CC tape consist of substrate. buffer, YBCO and metal layers. We measured critical current density on variations of external magnetic field and transport current loss of these cases. The results of measurement show that normalized critical current of YBCO CC is smaller then that of BSCCO tape in the external magnet field. According to the results. measured loss and calculated of the YBCO CC show the same tendency.

Normal zone propagation(NZP) characteristics were investigated on Ag sheathed Bi-2223 tape and cylindrical stacked conductor. Normal zone propagation(N2P) experiments with tape were conducted with refrigerator in temperature from 45 K to 77 K, 0 T. Cylindrical stacked conductor was molding with epoxy and experiments were conducted with adiabatic condition in $LN_2$. NZP velocities of tape with two condition of DC and AC were almost same at each temperature. NZP velocities of cylindrical stacked conductor were 1.9-2.4 cdsec in $LN_2$. Numerical analysis was carried out by a one-dimensional heat balance equation. As a result, simulated results of NZP velocity with Bi-2223 tape were similar to experimental results in DC.

The self-field losses in a long multifilamentary Bi-2223/AgMgNi tape with varying transport current, voltage tap configurations, frequency and tape arrangements were investigated. Experimental results show that the measured losses are strongly dependent on voltage gap configurations but independent on tape arrangements. All voltage taps except the center tap are found to agree well with those predicted by Norris for an elliptical conductor. The self-field losses are purely hysteretic in nature in the range of applied frequencies for the transport currents below the critical current.
