To validate the accuracy of the boiling heat flux partitioning model, an experiment was performed to investigate how the wall heat flux is divided into the three heat transfer modes of evaporation, quenching, and single-phase convection during subcooled nucleate boiling on a vertical wall. For the experimental partitioning of the wall heat flux, the wall heat flux and liquid-vapor distributions were simultaneously obtained using synchronized infrared thermometry and the total reflection technique. Boiling experiments of water with subcooling of $10^{\circ}C$ were conducted under atmospheric pressure, and the results obtained at the wall superheat of $12^{\circ}C$ and average heat flux of $283kW/m^2$were analyzed. There was a large difference in the heat flux partitioning results between the experiment and correlation, and the bubble departure diameter and bubble influence factor, which account for a portion of the surrounding superheated liquid layer detached by the departure of a bubble, were found to be important fundamental boiling parameters.

위성의 발사, 천이궤도, 운영궤도 등에서 위성체에 주어지는 극한 온도와 진공상태에서 위성체와 열제어시스템이 요구 조건을 만족시키는가를 확인하기 위하여 열진공시험을 수행한다. 우주에서 일어나는 환경변화는 극도로 심해서 지상에서 이와 유사한 열적 환경을 모사하는 방법은 쉽지가 않고, 일반적으로 위성체에 대한 열진공/평형 시험을 위해서는 열유속 흡수법과 열유속 투사법의 두 가지 방법을 사용한다. 한국항공우주연구원에서는 종래 접촉식 히터를 위성체에 직접 부착하는 방법에서 탈피하여 새로이 IR Lamp를 이용한 열유속 흡수법을 이용하여 위성체에 계산된 열유속을 인가하는 방법으로 위성체 열진공/평형시험을 수행하였으며, IR Lamp는 요구되는 100W~400W 사이의 열량을 오차 범위 5% 이내로 인가하여 균일한 온도 분포를 유지하고 성공적인 시험을 수행하였다.

Combined radiative-convective heat transfer in a hot gas tube flow has been investigated numerically and experimentally. In the numerical analysis, a standard k-.epsilon. model is used for the evaluation of turbulent shear stresses and spherical harmonics method with the Weighted Sum of Gray Gases Model for the solution of radiative transfer equation. In the experimental study measured are the velocity and temperature of the hot gas flow generated by the propane gas combustion, and tude wall heat flux distribution. Numerical results are compared with experimental ones and it is confirmed that P-3 provides quite reliable results in the analysis of the combined radiation-convection system.

본 연구는 화재조건에 따른 화재실 바닥면에서의 열유속특성을 파악하기 위해 ISO-9705 표준화재실의 40% 축소모형공간에 대하여 화재실험을 수행하고 화재성상에 따른 열유속변화와 공간적 분포를 분석한다. 또한 모형실험에서 계측된 열유속을 Scaling Law를 적용하여 실규모 크기의 결과로 환산하고 이를 기존의 다른 연구결과와 비교분석함으로써 화재발생으로 인한 공간내 열유속의 축소법칙의 적용성을 파악하고자 한다. 실험에 사용된 연료는 천연가스, 메탄올, 에탄올, 헵탄, 톨로엔, 폴리스틸렌등이며 모형실험의 최대발열량은 450 kW 정도로 실규모로 환산시 약 4.4 MW이다. 실험결과 화재실바닥면의 열유속은 연층의 온도와 연료의 종류에 따라 차이를 보였으나 측정위치별 차이는 크지 않았으며 Scaling Law를 적용한 결과 화재실 상층부 온도가 약 $500{\sim}600^{\circ}C$ 정도에서 바닥면의 열유속은 약 $20kW/m^2$ 정도로 기존연구와 유사한 경향을 보였다. 본 연구는 화재공간 내 열유속 측정을 통해 전실화재로의 화재성장을 파악하고 화재실내부의 열적특성을 분석하기 위한 기초적인 자료를 제공하고자 한다.

Axisymmetric numerical thermal analysis for a 3-dimensional regenerative cooling system in a rocket engine is carried out. To predict the accurate heat transfer with the stiff temperature distribution, several tests have been conducted for the grid size, the properties variation of the coolant and the combustion gas depending on temperature. The axisymmetric heat flux model is defined using fin efficiencies and is designed to be equivalent to the heat flux of the 3-dimensional coolant channel. For comparison purpose, the 1-dimensional analysis using Bartz equation is also conducted. The performance of the present model in predicting the cooling characteristics of a 3-dimensional regenerative cooling system is compared with the 3-dimensional results of RTE(Rocket Thermal Evaluation). It is found that the present method predicts much closer results to those of RTE code than 1-dimensional analysis.

The present study performs a series of 40 % reduced scale of ISO-9705 fire test to investigate the characteristics of heat flux on the floor level in terms of fire characteristics and location in the compartment. The heat flux was measured with Schmidt-Boelter type heat flux gauge at two locations on the floor level of inside and doorway side of the compartment. Different types of fuel - methane, heptane, toluene, ethanol, polystyrene - were burned in this test series. The measured heat flux inside of the compartment was relatively higher than that of front side as the heat release rate of fire and upper layer temperature increased. The difference of measured heat flux at inside and doorway side increased for high sooty fire. The present study shows that the heat flux distribution at lower layer greatly depend on the thermal radiation from fire and upper layer, not only the upper layer temperature but also various fire characteristics such as composition of combustion gases, soot concentration, ventilation condition and so on.

An understanding of the concentrated solar flux is critical for the analysis and design of solar-energy-utilization systems. The current work focuses on the development of an algorithm that uses the Monte Carlo ray-tracing method with excellent flexibility and expandability; this method considers both solar limb darkening and the surface slope error of reflectors, thereby analyzing the solar flux. A comparison of the modeling results with measurements at the solar furnace in Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) show good agreement within a measurement uncertainty of 10%. The model evaluates the concentration performance of the KIER solar furnace with a tracking accuracy of 2 mrad and a maximum attainable concentration ratio of 4400 sun. Flux variations according to measurement position and flux distributions depending on acceptance angles provide detailed information for the design of chemical reactors or secondary concentrators.

Daegu Solar Power Tower Plant of 200 kW thermal capacity was developed for the first time in Korea, 2011. Measurement of the heat flux distribution is essential to evaluate the solar energy concentrated by reflectors and to design a suitable receiver. The flux mapping technique, which uses a radiometer and a diffuse plate, is common for measurement of the heat flux distribution. Because the solar power tower plant has a wide concentration area, the flux mapping technique using a fixed diffuse plate is difficult to apply. Therefore, the flux distribution in the solar power tower plant should be measured by the flux mapping technique using a small moving bar. In this study, we measured flux distributions with the moving-bar system developed at the KIER solar furnace and evaluated its applicability for the solar power tower plant.

Concentration characteristics of the KIER solar furnace are analyzed with a heat flux measurement technique. Total heat capacity of 40kW was confirmed within 1.04% average error, and the normalized maximum heat flux of 3,452 $kW/m^2$ was proved. Non-Gaussian flux distribution in the vertical direction implies that reflectors should not be random rather inclined downwards. Moreover, we characterized flux distribution variations with furnace blind opening ratio, distance from the focal plane, and misalignment of the measurement system. Based on the results, the heat flux distribution can be simply estimated once reflectivity and direct normal insolation values are known. This study will be helpful to the design and the performance evaluation of receivers or chemical reactors.
