Fatigue crack was detected from a temperature change around surface crack using the thermographic technique. Thermal gradient across the crack decreased very much due to thermal resistance of contact surface in the crack. Heat diffusion flow passing through the discontinuity was visualized in temperature by infrared camera to find and locate the crack. A fatigue crack specimen(SM-45C), which was prepared according to KS specification and notched in its center to initiate fatigue crack from the notch tip, was heated by halogen lamp at the end of one side to generate a heat diffusion flow in lateral direction. A abrupt jump in temperature across the fatigue crack was observed in thermographic image, by which the crack could be located and sized from temperature distribution.

The effect of an increase in the temperature of inlet air on the performance of a membrane humidifier for a PEMFC (Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell) vehicle was investigated both experimentally and numerically. A shell-and-tube type gas-to-gas humidifier with Nafion membrane was tested. The experimental result showed that water transfer varies nonlinearly with the temperature elevation. Numerical analysis based on detailed modeling was also conducted in simplified geometry of a single tube to explain this nonlinear behavior. The simulation revealed that the local water flux varies nonlinearly and dramatically along the tube. The analysis was based on the inverse relationship between the increase in temperature and decrease in relative humidity, both of which seriously affect the water conductivity of the membrane.

The surface temperature and hydrological budget for the last glacial maximum (LGM) is simulatedwith an atmospheric general circulation model of NCAR CCM3 at spectral truncation of T170, corespondingto a grid cel size of roughly 75 km. LGM simulations were forced with the reconstructed CLIMAP sea surface temperatures, sea ice distribution, ice sheet topography, reduced CO2, and orbital parameters.oC in winter, 5.6oC in sumer,and 6oC annual-mean. The decrease of surface temperature leads to a weakening of the hydrologicalcycle. Global-mean precipitation decreases by about 14% in winter, 17% in summer, and 13% annually.However, some regions such as the U.S., southern Europe, northern and eastern Africa, and the SouthAmerica appear to be weter in the LGM winter and Canada and the Midle East are weter in sumer. model captures detailed climate features over land.

This paper describes the thermal analysis which can calculate the ablation depth and temperature distribution of the rocket nozzle liner allowing geometry change caused by the ablation of nozzle liner. In this analysis, Zvyagin's model is used for surface ablation and Yaroslavtseva's model for in-depth pyrolysis. A deforming finite-element grid is used to account for external-boundary movement due to the erosion of thermal liner. The accuracy of the present numerical method is evaluated with a rocket nozzle liner and the numerical solutions are favorably agreed with experimental data. The temporal variations of temperature and ablation depth at the thermal liner of another rocket nozzle are numerically simulated and the results are discussed. Special emphasis is given to the effects of kinetic constants for carbon-carbon and carbon-phenolic composites on the ablation depth of thermal liner.

Acetone LIF and Rayleigh scattering measurements were performed to identify the entrainment of ambient air in the buoyant jet qualitatively. The air entrainment near nozzle exit was enhanced with increasing both an axial distance and Reynolds number. The results supported that the air entrainment had to be considered in isothermal model for the development of its accuracy. Also, this paper provided an isothermal model based on the ideal plume, of which radiative heat loss fraction was assumed to 0.35 and the entainment of isothermal jet was considered. This simple model could be used in compartment or semi-enclosure fires such as tunnel, and it is more reliable because of introducing entrainment effect in isothermal jet.

댐이나 홍수방지시설과 같은 대규모 수공구조물의 설계 및 평가에는 주로 가능최대강수량(Probable Maximum Precipitation, PMP)가 적용되고 있다. 이러한 PMP의 산정은 관측자료의 정상성 가정을 기반으로 하기 때문에 기후변화와 같은 비정상성을 고려할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 대기 프로세스의 비정상성 효과를 반영할 수 있는 물리적 기반의 수치 기상 모형(Numerical Weather Model)을 이용하여 최대강수량(Maximum Precipitation, MP)을 산정하는 접근법을 제시하고자 한다. 사례 연구로 대상 극한 강우사상을 식별하고, 식별된 사상들은 지역 대기 모형 중 하나인 WRF를 이용하여 재현된다. 이때, 한국 내의 약 650개의 AWS 자료와 NCEP에서 제공하는 전세계 기상관측자료 및 해수면 온도 자료를 사용하여 초기조건과 경계조건을 개선하고, 총 강수량과 강우의 공간적인 분포를 재현하기 위한 최적 물리옵션을 찾기 위해 다양한 수치실험이 수행된다. 최종적으로 재현된 극한 강우사상은 모형의 경계조건과 수분 최대화의 통해 최대화되어 물리적으로 가능한 최대 강수량을 산정하게 된다. 본 연구는 제한된 강우사상을 대상으로 최대 강수량을 산정하였기 때문에 추후 다양한 강우사상에 대한 연구와 강우의 최대화에 대한 보완이 필요하지만, 정상성 가정에 의존하지 않는 극한 강우사상 산정에 잠재적인 대안이 될 것이라 기대된다.

본 논문은 칼라 성분들간의 차분 영상과 휘도 영상을 이용하여 산출한 색차 휘도합 영상을 대상으로 블록에 기반한 영상 분할을 수행하여 객체의 형상 정보를 추출함으로써 분할 특성을 개선한 블록 기반 칼라 영상 분할 기법에 관한 것이다. 우선, R, G, B 영상들 간의 차분 성분들을 구하여 합산한 후, 이를 정규화하여 색차합 영상을 구한다. 다음으로 화소 단위로 휘도 영상의 상위 2비트와 정하화된 색차합 영상의 하위 6비트를 결합하여 색차 휘도합 영상을 얻는다. 이후, 기설정된 크기의 블록으로 분할된 색차 휘도합 영상의 각 블록을 질감 블록과 단순 블록 및 에지 블록으로 분류하고 각 유형의 블록별로 병합한 후, 기설정된 마커 배정 규칙에 따라 선택적으로 마커를 부여한다. 마지막으로, 마커가 부여되지 않은 블록을 대상으로 화소 단위의 워터쉐드 알고리즘을 적용함으로써 자연스러운 형상 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 고찰할 때, 제안된 방범은 질감 영역에서의 과분할의 문제와 과도한 연산량의 부담을 효과적으로 경감시킬 수 있으나, 더불어, 영상 분할용 파라미터들의 민감도가 낮아 서로 다른 화소 분포 특성온 갖는 영상들에 전역적인 파라미터들사용할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 특히, 색차 휘도합 영상에 반영된 색차 성분에 힘입어 저대조 경계면에서의 분할 특성을 현저히 개선시킬 수 있는 이점이 있다.

Latent heat storage system using micro-encapsuled phase change material is effective method for floor heating of house and building. The temperature profile in capsule block and flow rate of hot water are important parameters for the development of heat storage system. In the present study, a mathematical model based on 3-D, non-steady state, Navier-Stokes equations, scalar conservation equations and turbulence model ($\kappa$-$\varepsilon$), is used to predict the temperature profiles in capsule and the velocity vectors in hot water pipe. The multi-block grids and fine grids embedding are used to join the circle in hot water pipe and square in capsule block. The phase change process of the capsule is quite complex not only because the size of phase change material is very small, but also because phase change material is mixed with the cement to form thermal storage block. In calculation, it's assumed that the phenomena of phase change is limited only the thermal properties of phase change material and the change of boundary is not happened in capsule. The purpose of this study is to calculate the temperature profiles in capsule block and velocity vectors in hot water pipe using the numerical calculation. Two kinds of thermal boundary condition were considered, the first (case 1) is the adiabatic condition for the both outside surfaces of the wall, the second (case 2) is the case in which one surface is natural convection with atmosphere and another surface is adaibatic. Calculation results are shown that the temperature profile in capsule block for case 1 is higher than that for case 2 due to less heat loss in adaibatic surface. Specially, in the domain of near Y=0, the difference of temperature is greater in case 1 than in case 2. The detailed experimental data of capsule block on the temperature profile and the thermal properties such as specific heat and coefficient of heat transfer with the various temperature are required to predict more exact phenomena of heat transfer.

Friction Stir Welding is a welding technique for metal materials that utilizes the heat generated by friction between the material to be welded and the welding tool that rotates at high speed. In this study, a numerical analysis method was used to analyze the change in the internal temperature of the welded material during friction stir welding. As the welding target material, AZ31 magnesium alloy was applied and the welding phenomenon was considered a flow characteristic, in which a melting-pool was formed. FLUENT was used as the numerical tool to perform the flow analysis. For flow analysis of the welding process, the welding material was assumed to be a high viscosity Newtonian fluid, and the boundary condition of the welding tool and the material was considered to be the condition that friction and slippage occur simultaneously. Analyses were carried out for various rotational speeds and the translational moving speed of the welding tool as variables. The analysis results showed that the higher the rotational speed of the welding tool and the slower the welding tool movement speed, the higher the maximum temperature in the material increases. Moreover, the difference in the rotational speed of the welding tool has a greater effect on the temperature change.

$\textrm{WO}_3$ semiconductive film, which is known to have a sensitivity on $\textrm{NO}_X$ gas was prepared on 8YSZ (8% Yttria stabilized $\textrm{ZrO}_2$) ionic conductor substrate that has oxygen ion pumping effect. Microstructure and electrical properity, especially $\textrm{NO}_X$ sensitivity as a function of DC voltage applied to 8YSZ substrate was examined. When the $\textrm{WO}_3$ film was annealed, it showed amorphous structure, while crystallization was occurred at $600^{\circ}$C revealing orthorhombic phase of $\textrm{WO}_3$. As the annealing temperature increases, (111) and (001) peaks of $\textrm{WO}_3$ film was enhanced. At $400^{\circ}C$ when DC voltage was applied, comparing with no DC bias, more stable and large response characteristics was showed, and the best sensitivity was observed at 2V. Recovery characteristics of NO gas was much better that that of $\textrm{NO}_2$ gas.
