최근 열전달율을 획기적으로 향상시킬 수 있는 고 열전도성 나노유체가 주목을 받고 있다. 고 열전도성 나노유체는 액상보다 열전도도가 수백~수만 배 높은 고상의 금속 또는 비금속 나노입자를 물이나 오일 등에 미량 균일하게 분산시킴으로써 기존의 유체가 가지지 못한 높은 열전도율과 분산안정성을 갖는 기능성유체를 말한다. 고 열전도성 나노유체는 기존 냉각시스템에서 냉각유체만 교체할 경우에도 열전달 효율을 20% 이상 향상시킬 수 있는 저비용 고효율작동 유체이다. 이 나노유체는 발전설비, 공조설비, 에너지 산업, 석유화학, 화학공업, 제철산업, 가정용 냉난방설비, 자동차 등 산업 전 분야의 열교환시스템에 활용이 가능하다. 따라서 고 열전도성 나노유체는 종래 열효율의 한계를 돌파할 수 있는 에너지 이용 효율 향상 기술의 패러다임을 바꿀 혁신적인 신소재로 여겨지고 있다. 그러나 현재까지 개발된 나노유체는 초기 열전도 특성은 우수하나 장기간 분산안정성이 확보되지 않아 시간이 경과함에 따라 열전도도가 점점 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 또한 탄소나노튜브를 분산한 나노유체의 경우와 같이 유체의 점도가 크게 증가하여 실제 산업에 적용 시 커다란 동력손실을 초래할 수 있으며 열교환시스템에 파울링이 발생할 소지가 크다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 나노유체에서 열전달이 일어나는 메커니즘이 규명되어야 하지만 아직 명확한 이론이나 가설이 정립되어 있지 않다. 이 논문에서는 나노유체가 높은 열전도율을 보이는 현상을 설명할 수 있는 몇 가지 이론을 살펴 보고 지금까지 개발된 안정성이 아주 높은 나노유체의 열전도 특성을 비교 분석하여 획기적인 열전도성 나노유체 개발 가능성을 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해 나노입자의 조성, 유체 내 농도 및 자기장 등이 나노유체의 열전도율에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다.

The nonuniform thermal conductive reaction blocks were manufactured by impregnation of metal salts on the expanded graphite to improve the heat and mass transfer ability of reaction block for the chemical heat pump using the reaction of ammonia and metal salts(halide). The nonuniform blocks were designated to increase apparent density, like 165, 222, 279, 337, $394kg/m^3$ radially The experimental results showed that the heat transfer characteristics of nonuniform blocks were better than uniform blocks. As the reaction of ammonia repeated, the volumetric expansion in the reaction block makes the mass transfer improve, and the reproducibility better.

As electronic devices become more advanced and smaller, one of the biggest problems to solve is the heat affecting the efficiency and lifetime of instruments. High thermal conductivity materials, in particular, metal or ceramic ones, have been used to reduce the heat generated from devices. However, due to their low mechanical properties and high weight, thermally conductive composites composed with polymers having a light-weight and good mechanical properties as a matrix and carbon materials having high thermal conductivity as a thermally conductive filler have been attracting great attention. To improve the thermal conductivity of the composites, a phonon scattering must be suppressed to move phonon effectively. In this review, we classified researches related to phonon migration and scattering inhibition of carbon/polymer composites, and discussed various methods to improve thermal conductivity.

This study aims to develop a thermally conductive backfill by applying the prepacked concrete concept, in which a coarse aggregate with relatively high thermal conductivity was first filled and then the voild filled with grout. Backfill with improved thermal conductivity can increase the heat exchange efficiency of underground heat exchangers or underground transmission facilities. The backfills was prepared by using crushed concrete as the coarse aggregate, fly ash-based grout, and a small amount of cement for solidification. The results of this study showed that the fly ash-cement-sand-based grout with a flow of at least 450 mm accor ding to ASTM D 6103 could fill the void of pr epactked coar se aggr egates with a maximum size of 25 mm. The thermal conductivity of the backfil with coarse aggregate was over 1.7 W/m·K, which was higher than that of grout-type backfills.

The purpose of this study is to improve the strength and thermal conductivity of polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) by embedding various additives. Specimens were prepared using PBT pellets embedded with glass fibers (GF) and boron nitride (BN) powders. The test results showed that tensile strength decreased, and thermal conductivity increased with increasing BN contents. with thermal shock cycles conducted, unfilled PBT showed a considerable decrease in failure strain and strength, whereas strength and thermal conductivity of glass fiber and BN particle-embedded PBT had little differeces. With increasing BN, the thermal conductivity of PBT composites was highly improved.

An experimental study has been carried out to investigate the frosting behavior on the plate of thermally conductive plastic (PBT based resin) by comparing it with those of aluminum and some plastic test specimens (PTFE based resin). It is found that the frosting behavior of plastic specimens with 1 mm thickness shows similar trend to that of aluminum except PTFE. The properties of frost formed on the specimens are found to be affected by both thermal conductivity and surface characteristics of the materials. The results indicate that the heat and mass transfer rates of PBT resin are almost equivalent to those of aluminum.
