An experiment was performed to study the heat pipe phenomenon of porous media heated above at one-dimensional steady state for the range of heat flux, 300 W/ $m^{2}$ ~ 2000w/ $m^{2}$. Glass beads, sand, and copper particles were used as porous media and distilled water was used as a working fluid. Result of experiment shows that the length of the two-phase zone increases with the decreasing particle size for the same heat flux. At relatively lower heat flux the length of the two-phase zone increases with the increasing heat flux, which contradicts the result of earlier work. However, its length remains nearly constant when the heat flux increases above a certain value. The length of the two-phase zone is proportional to the product of the heat flux by the hydrostatic capillary height under the limited value on heat flux, that is, $l_{t}$ = A(q. $l_{cap}$)+B, q.leg.1/A(C+B/ $l_{cap}$) where A is 1.7*10$^{-4}$ $m^{2}$/w, B is 1.9*10$^{-2}$ m, and C is 0.43 for copper particles and 0.31 for glass beads and sand.d.d.d.

In this study, the energy conversion equipment from the radiation energy to mechanical energy by using n­pentane as the operating fluid was constructed and the performance to pump the water was tested for the utilization of solar powered water pump. The equipment was designed optimally, after the theoretical analyses of the water pumping head and water quantity per cycle were done. The pentane vapour temperature in the condenser and the temperature of the outlet water from the condenser became lowered and the heat transfer rate became higher with decreasing the water inlet level to the condenser. The temperature difference between the condenser and the water tank was significant. Therefore, the distance between the water tank and condenser was recommended to be shorten and the diameter of their connecting pipe was recommended to be narrow in order to reduce the resistance of the fluid passage and improve the heat transfer rate. The amount of water pumped was 1.6­2.4 liters. Mass flow rate of the cooling water became lowered when the cooling water pipe was prolonged from the condenser to improve the heat transfer rate.

파이프의 양 끝단에 심한 온도구배가 형성될 때 음향이 발생한다는 사실은 이미 알려진 사실이다. 본 연구는 열구동식 열음향냉동기를 구현하기 위해서 1단계로 열원에 의한 음향발생을 달성하고자 했다. 이를 위해 1/4 파장의 열음향 발생장치를 설계 및 제작하여 실험에 사용하였다. 열음향 발생기는 직경 3cm, 길이 16cm의 공명관에 가열부, 박판집적체, 고온부 및 저온부의 열교환기로 구성되며 발생음의 기본주파수는 520Hz로 설계하였다. 고온부를 38$0^{\circ}C$로 가열한 결과 열음향발생기의 개구부로부터 1m 떨어진 곳에서 최초 음압측정값이 약 112dB, 음향출력으로 약 1와트에 해당하는 값을 얻었다. 박판집적체에 급격한 온도구배가 형성되면서 주변의 기체가 자발적인 진동을 하여 형성된 음향동력중 일부는 공명관 벽에 흡수되고 일부는 열교환기에서 점성에 의해 소산된다. 따라서 실제로 음향으로 변하는 부분은 이들을 감한 부분인데 실험결과 약 53%의 음향 생성효율을 달성했으며 이는 스위프트 등이 얻었던 결과보다 우수하다.

Induction bending via high-frequency heating is widely used for manufacturing pipe and section steel bends. It allows productivity improvement, unit cost reduction, delivery time compliance, and good mechanical properties. The recent increase in high-end vessels and offshore plants has raised the demand for high-frequency bending, which should improve the product quality and reduce the costs by simplifying the fabrication process; therefore, the characteristics and performance of this technique must be studied and proper design technology is required. During hot pipe bending via induction heating, the outward wall thickness of the pipe is thinned due to tensile stress and this thickness reduction cannot exceed 12.5%. This study focused on pipe bends with a bending curvature of 5D and their optimization design; in particular, the conditions that can both improve the productivity of the high-frequency bending process and keep the maximum thickness reduction below 12.5% were determined.

Performance of heat exchanger was evaluated to heat exchanger using oscillating heat pipe for waste heat recovery of low temperature. Oscillating heat pipe used in this study was formed to the closed loop of serpentine shapes using copper tubes. Heat exchanger was formed to shell and tube type and composed of low finned tube. R-22 and R-141b were used to the working fluids of tube side and their charging ratio was 40%. And, water was used to the working fluid of shell side. As the experimental parameters, the inlet temperature difference of heating and cooling part of secondary fluid and the mass velocity of secondary fluid were used. The mass velocity of secondary fluid was changed from 90 kg/$m^2s\; to\;190 kg/m^2$s from the experimental results, heat recovery rate was linearly increased to the increment of the mass velocity of secondary fluid and the inlet temperature difference of secondary fluid. Finally, the performance of heat exchanger was evaluated by using $\varepsilon$-NTU method. It was found that NTU was about 1.5 when effectiveness was decided to 80%.

Large cast iron structures are used in casings and pipes in shipsand chemical plants. Broken parts in the casings and pipescan result in failures even when stresses are below the yield strength of the part's materials. Fatigue failure of a large cast iron structure is inevitable due to the design constraints and low reliability of the material strength. A small structure can be repaired by welding, but a large structure cannot because it cannot be preheated slowly and uniformly. This study shows that a large structure can be repaired by a cold joint method using a crack repair screw. Large cast iron structures were manufactured by GC 300, and their design stress is below 3.5 MPa. The tensile strength on notched specimens repaired by crack repair screws was 8.2 MPa. Therefore, the safety factors of structures repaired by crack repair screws have a value above 2.3 and are considered to be high values.

On-board black body is used for radiation temperature calibration of spaceborne radiometers and imaging systems. The thermal design of black body proposed in this study is basically composed of heaters to heat-up the black body from low to high temperature during the calibration, heat pipe to transfer residual heat on the black body just after calibration to radiator on the S/C and heaters on the radiator to keep the certain temperature range of the black body during non-calibration. In the present work, the effectiveness of thermal design of on-board black body has been investigated by on-orbit thermal analysis.

During hot pipe bending using induction heating, the wall of bending outside is thinned by tensile stress. In design requirement, the reduction of wall thickness is not allowed to exceed 12.5%. So in this study, two methods of bending, one is loading of reverse moment and the other is loading of temperature gradient, have been investigated to design pipe bending process that satisfy design requirements. For this purpose, finite element analysis with a bending radius 2Do(outer diameter of pipe) has been performed to calculate proper reverse moment and temperature gradient to be applied. Induction heating process has been analyzed to estimate influence of heating process parameters on heating characteristic by finite difference method. Then pipe bending experiments have been performed for verification of finite element and finite difference analysis results. Experimental results are in good agreement with the results of simulations.
