In this paper, we studied on the thermal conductivity and a mechanical property of the elastic epoxy. According to industrial development, insulation materials have various properties. They are solid, liquid, gas state, there are various type. Epoxy, a kind of insulation material, demand of not only high hardness but also elastic property. When the electric current flows into the conductor and the place where the heat occurs, this heat becomes the cause which shortens the life of the electrical appliance. Therefore, for the heat occurred transmit quickly, thermal conductivity of the insulation material is highly demanded. We studied on the thermal conductivity of elastic epoxy on the high voltage. In this result, thermal conductivity confirmed that it followed thermal property of mixed epoxy and addictives. Hardness is decreased when addictives increased.

The effect of Mn additive on the thermoelectric properties of Fe-Si alloys prepared by a RF inductive furnace was investigated. The electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient were measured as a function of temperature under Ar atmosphere to evaluate their applicability to thermoelectric energy conversion. The electrical conductivity of the specimens increased with increasing temperatures showing typical semiconducting behavior. The electrical conductivity of Mn-doped specimens are higher than that of undoped specimens and increased slightly with increasing the amount of Mn additive. This must be due to the difference in carrier concentration and the amount of residual metallic phase ${\varepsilon}$-FeSi(The ${\varepsilon}$-FeSi was detected in spite of 100 h annealing treatment at $830^{\circ}C$). And metallic conduction increased slightly with increasing the amount of Mn additive. On the other hand, Mn-doped specimens showed the lower Seebeck coefficient due to metallic phase. The power factor of Mn-doped specimens are higher than that of undoped specimens and would be affected by the electrical conductivity more than Seebeck coefficient.

The effect of an AlN additive on the thermoelectric properties of SiC ceramics was studied. Porous SiC ceramics with 48-54% relative density were fabricated by sintering the pressed ${\alpha}-SiC$ powder compacts with AlN at $2100-2200^{\circ}C$ for 3 h in an Ar atmosphere. In the undoped specimens, the Seebeck coefficients were positive (p-type semiconducting) possibly due to a dominant effect of the acceptor impurities (Al, Fe) contained in the starting powder. With AlN addition, the reverse phase transformation of 6H-SiC to 4H-SiC was observed during the sintering process. The electrical conductivity of the AlN doped specimen was larger than that of the undoped specimen under the same conditions, which might be due to a reverse phase trans-formation. The Seebeck coefficient of the AlN doped specimen was also larger than that of the undoped specimen. The density of specimen and the amount of addition had significant effects on the thermoelectric properties.

Hexagonal boron nitride particles (s-hBN) modified with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) were used for the preparation of silicone composite materials. The microstructure of the composite materials was observed, and the thermal conduction and mechanical characteristics of the composite sheets were studied based on the compositions and microstructures. When a small amount of s-hBN particles was used, the thermal conductivity of the composite improved as a whole, and the tensile strength of the sheet also increased. The thermal conductivity and tensile strength of the composite in which a small amount of carbon fiber was added along with s-hBN were further improved. However, the use of carbon nanotubes with structural characteristics similar to those of carbon fiber resulted in lower thermal conductivity and tensile strength. Elastic silicone composites exhibiting 2.5 W/mK of thermal conductivity and a low hardness are expected to be used as thermally conductive interfacial sheet materials.

For an enhanced thermoelectric performance, one-dimensional heterostructure nanowires were created that consisted of aBi core and Te shell. The structure was fabricated by depositing Te in-situ onto a Bi nanowire grown by our unique OFF-ON (on-film formation of nanowires) method. After examining a cross-sectional TEM image, it was found that diffusive interface was formed between Bi and Te. Selected area electron diffraction revealed that the crystallinity of the Te shell was some what lower compared to the highly single-crystalline Bi core. The Bi-Te core/shell nanowires can be a smart structure that suppresses phonon transport by several scattering mechanisms, making the OFF-ON method the simplest way to realize that structure.

We investigated the thermal conductivity of individual single-crystalline PbTe nanowires grown by chemical vapor transport method. Suspended MEMS was utilized to precisely measure the thermal conductivity of an individual nanowire. The thermal conductivity of a PbTe nanowire with diameter of 292 nm was measured to be $1.8W/m{\cdot}K$ at 300 K, which is about two thirds of that of bulk PbTe. This result indicates that the thermal conduction through a PbTe nanowire is effectively suppressed by the enhanced phonon boundary scattering. As the diameter of a PbTe nanowire decreases, the corresponding thermal conductivity linearly decreases.

A highly efficient moving least squares finite difference method (MLS FDM) for heat transfer analysis of composite material with interface. In the MLS FDM, governing differential equations are directly discretized at each node. No grid structure is required in the solution procedure. The discretization of governing equations are done by Taylor expansion based on moving least squares method. A wedge function is designed for the modeling of the derivative jump across the interface. Numerical examples showed that the numerical scheme shows very good computational efficiency together with high aocuracy so that the scheme for heat transfer problem with different heat conductivities was successfully verified.

스테인리스강은 내식성, 내열성, 내산화성이 좋으므로 화학산업, 의학용기, 고정밀 산업 등에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 스테인리스강은 열전도율이 낮고 용융물의 점성이 크고 가공경화가 심하기 때문에 인코넬 티탄합금 등과 함께 난삭재로 알려져 있다. 스테인리스강의 고합금강을 사용한 기계가공은 공구의 마모가 심하게 일어나므로 가 공이 어렵다. 화염절단(Flame dutting)도 합금물의 버닝(burning)현상을 막는 성질 때문에 잘쓰이지 않고 플라 즈마-아크(plasma-arc) 절단은 수중에서 이루어질 경우 절단끝이 산화되지 않는 좋은 절단면을 얻을 수 있으나 수중에서 사용해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 레이저를 이용한 가공은 절단폭이 작아 재료의 손실이 적으며 복잡한 형상의 절단도쉽고 공구의손실이 없는등 많은 장점이 있어서 사용이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 스테인리스 강의 절단메커니즘에대한 이해를 돕기 위해 절단가공에 큰 영향을 끼치는 레이저 출력, 절단속도, 절단가스의 압력, 재질, 절단두께를 절단변수로채택하여 절단을 수행하였다. 절단결과를 비교 검토하여 절단변수가 절단에 미치는 영향을 분석하였고 최적의 절단을 얻는 가공조건을 제시하였다.
