지난 수십 년간 순환유동층과 riser 반응기에 관한 연구는 상당한 진전을 이뤄왔다. 비록, 순환유동층(riser)반응기가 전형적인 유동층에 비해 여러 가지 장점 -높은 기-고의 접촉효율, 높은 기체와 고체의 처리량, 기상과 고상의 낮은 축방향 분산, 높은 turndown ratio, 점결성 입자의 처리-을 가지고 있으나, 불균일한 기-고의 흐름에 의한 고체의 역혼합(back-mixing)으로, 기체와 고체의 반경방향의 분리를 일으켜 두상간의 접촉을 감소시켜 생성물의 균일성과 선택도를 감소시킨다. 이러한 riser 반응기의 단점을 보완하기 위해 최근에는 기-고의 하향흐름을 갖는 downer(downflow) 반응기에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다.

In this study, the microstructure and thermal conductivity correlation was investigated for concrete materials used in concrete thermal energy storage (CTES) among real-time energy storage devices. Graphite was used as admixture to increase the thermal conductivity performance of the CTES. Concrete specimens of 10% and 15% substitution of cement by mass with graphite, as well as ordinary portland cement (OPC) specimens were prepared, and the microstructural changes and effects on thermal conductivity were analyzed. Porosities of OPC and concrete with graphite were compared using micro-CT, and the microstructural characteristics were quantified using probability functions. Three-dimensional virtual specimens were constructed for thermal analysis, to confirm the effect of microstructural characteristics on thermal conductivity, and the results were compared with the measured conductivity obtained using the hot-disc method. To identify thermal conductivity of graphite for thermal analysis, solid phase conductivity was inversely determined based on simulation and experimental results, and the effect of graphite on thermal conductivity was analyzed.

Numerical inverstigation of heat transfer in phase-change energy storage devices was performed in order to aid In the design process for a finned Phase-Change Material( PCM). A simplified model based on a quasi-linear, transient, thin fin equation, which predicts the fraction of melted phase-change material, and the shape of liquid-solid interface as a function of time, is used. The model is solved by using Finite Volume Method(FVM), and the numerical results have showed good agreement with experimental data.

A method of the shape design sensitivity analysis based on the boundary integral equation formulation is presented for two-dimensional inhomogeneous thermal conducting solids with multiple domains. Shape variation of the external and interface boundary is considered. A sensitivity formula of a general performance functional is derived by taking the material derivative to the boundary integral identity and by introducing an adjoint system. In numerical analysis, state variables of the primal and adjoint systems are solved by the boundary element method using quadratic elements. Two numerical examples of a compound cylinder and a thermal diffuser are taken to show implementation of the shape design sensitivity analysis. Accuracy of the present method is verified by comparing analyzed sensitivities with those by the finite difference. As application to the shape optimization, an optimal shape of the thermal diffuser is found by incorporating the sensitivity analysis algorithm in an optimization program.

Gas-particle two phase flow and heat transfer in a cavity receiving thermal radiation through selectively transparent walls have been analyzed by a finite difference method. Particles injected from the upper hole of the cavity are accelerated downward by gravity and exit through the lower hole while they absorb, emit and scatter the incident thermal radiation. Gas phase is heated through convection heat transfer from particles, and consequently buoyancy induced flow field is formed. Two-equation model with two-way coupling is adopted and interaction terms are treated as sources by PSI-Cell method. For the particulate phase, Lagrangian method is employed to describe velocities and temperatures of particles. As thermal radiation is incident upon horizontally, radiative heat transfer in the vertical direction is assumed negligible and two-flux model is used for the solution of radiative heat flus. Gas phase velocity and temperature distributions, and particle trajectories, velocities and temperatures are presented. The effects of particle inlet condition, particle size, injection velocity and particle mass rate are mainly investigated.

Aqueous solution of sodium glycinate was checked as a suitable $CO_2$ absorbent from the flu gas in the thermal power plant. For this purpose, solubility, vapor pressure, latent heat of vaporization and thermal conductivity were determined for pure and aqueous solution of sodium glycinate. The solubility of sodium glycinate in the solvent, 25 g of $H_2O$, was increased with increasing the temperature and their relation was represented as a first order equation of y = 0.3471x + 20.993. The vapor pressure for 10 wt％ to 60 wt％ of aqueous sodium glycinate solution were determined and the latent heat of vaporization of each aqueous solution was calculated from measured vapor pressure using Clausius-Clapeyron equation. Besides, thermal conductivity of sodium glycinate powder was also determined and it was $1.0933kcal/m{\cdot}hr{\cdot}^{\circ}C$.

Conjugate natural convection in double enclosed annuli between horizontal concentric cylinders has been studied by the numerical analysis and experimental measurements. The interface conditions between the liquid and the solid of middle shell are obtained through the correlation factor based on the ratio of solid to fluid thermal conductivities and the Prandtl number. The characteristics of conjugate heat transfer are discussed under various dimensionless parameters such as conductivity ratios, shell thickness, diameter ratios, Prandtl number, and Rayleigh number. It is found that the average equivalent conductivity K over var $_{eq}$ does not depend on the conductivity ratios and shell thickness. The K over bar $_{eq}$ however, depends on the Prandtl number and the Rayleigh number.

We carried out laboratory material tests on two cements (KS-1 ordinary Portland and Class G) with changing W/S (Water/Solid) and the content of fly ash in order to evaluate their physical and mechanical properties. The specimens of KS-1 ordinary Portland cement were prepared with varying W/S (Solid=cement) in weight, while those of Class G cement were prepared with changing the content of fly ash in volume but maintaining W/S (Solid=cement+fly ash). The results of the material tests show that as the W/S in KS-1 ordinary Portland cement and the content of fly ash in Class G cement increase, the properties (density, sonic wave velocity, elastic constants, compressive and tensile strengths, thermal conductivity) decrease, but porosity and specific heat increase. In addition, an increase in confining pressure and in the content of fly ash leads to plastic failure behavior of the cements. The laboratory data were then used in a stability analysis of cement sheath for which an analytical solution for computing the stress distribution induced around a cased, cemented well was employed. The analysis was carried out with varying the injection well parameters such as thickness of casing and cement, injection pressure, dip and dip direction of injection well, and depth of injection well. The analysis results show that cement sheath is stable in the cases of relatively lower injection pressures and inclined and horizontal wells. However, in the other cases, it is damaged by mainly tensile failure.

We have numerically modeled thermal evolution of Ulleung Island after an emplacement of magma chamber. The disk-shape magma chamber is assumed to locate at 2.9 km beneath the island and has a diameter and a thickness of 10 km and 300 (or 600) m, respectively. The geothermal gradients evaluated from the numerical modeling coincide well with the range of the geotherms (${\sim}95^{\circ}C/km$) observed from the well logging. Although there are limitations in the application of the numerical results directly to the interpretation of the observed geotherms, we believe that an existence of a hot magma chamber in molten or in solidified state is the most plausible explanation for the observed geotherms.

Polypropylene/multi-walled carbon nanotube(PP/MWCNT) composites along with various MWCNT contents up to 20 wt% were prepared by a twin screw extruder. Nanocomposites having 20 wt% MWCNT as a master batch(M/B) were diluted with PP by way of melt compounding. The electrical/thermal conductivity, morphology, thermal/viscoelastic/mechanical properties were investigated with the variation of MWCNT contents. Also, we compared some properties between 1-step PP/MWCNT and the diluted PP/MWCNT composites. The percolation threshold of electrical and thermal conductivity was measured at about 3 wt% MWCNT. And conductivity of diluted PP/MWCNT composites were superior to those of PP/MWCNT composites. The non-isothermal crystallization temperature and thermal decomposition temperature appeared at higher temperatures with increasing MWCNT contents. Morphology showed that length of MWCNT in diluted PP/MWCNT composites was shortened by twice melt blending, which contributed to improve the tensile strength of PP/MWCNT composites.
