입사면에서 발생하는 열을 효율적으로 제거하기 위하여 Yb:YAG 결정의 표면에 sapphire 창을 부착하여 레이저를 발진 시켰다. Yb:YAG 결정에서 발생하는 열이 sapphire 창을 통하여 구리판으로 전달되는 경우 와 Yb:YAG 결정의 측면에서 냉각하는 경우의 레이저 출력을 측정하여 각각의 레이저 발진 특성을 비교하여 보았다. 여기면을 sapphire 창으로 냉각하는 micro-chip Yb:YAG 레이저의 레이저 에너지 전환 효율은 38%였으며 레이저 발진 문턱값은 4 kw/mm$^2$, slope efficiency는 56%로 측정되었다. Sapphire 창을 사용하는 경우 표면에서의 열전달도는 10 W/mm$^2$이상으로 관측되었다. Yb:YAG의 도핑율, 출력경의 반사율 등을 레이저 변수를 최적화할 경우 같은 구조에서 50 W급 레이저도 발진 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

The characteristics of evaporation cooling of single droplet on a heated surface were studied experimentally. The two kinds of heater modules were tested to measure cooling characteristics of metal surface (high conductivity) and Teflon surface (low-energy surface, low conductivity). The results showed that time averaged heat flux during droplet evaporation increased exponentially with initial surface temperatures of brass, copper and steel. The heat flux and evaporation time did not varied with metal conductivities. However, the temperature drop after the deposition of droplet was larger on Teflon than on the metals. Thus, the correlation of interface temperature between liquid droplet and metal surface was proposed as a function of the initial surface temperature of heating materials, which could be applied to both metal and non-metal ones.

본 연구에서는 막냉각되는 터빈블레이드에서의 열전달 계수를 측정하기 위하 여 열전달과 물질전달의 상사관계를 이용하였다.터빈블레이드의 선단을 다른 연구 에서와 마찬가지로 원봉으로 모사하였고, 원봉의 표면에 위치하고 있는 1열의 분사홀 로부터 제트가 분사될 때 분사홀 근처 및 그 하류에서의 물질 전달계수를 측정하기 위 해 나프탈렌승화법을 이용하였다. 분사홀 열의 위치를 정체점에서 하류방향으로 이 동시키면서, 물질전달계수의 변화를 연구하였고, 분사율(M=.rho.$_{j}$ U$_{j}$ /.rho.$_{\infty}$ U$_{\infty}$)의 영향도 고찰하였다.

스텔스 기능을 가진 군사용 항공기는 레이다 망의 추적을 피하기 위해 일반 냉각수 대신에 절연유를 냉각매체로 사용한다. 그러나 절연유는 물에 비하여 열전달특성이 매우 낮기 때문에 항공기 전기전자 기기/부품 발열부를 효과적으로 냉각시키지 못하는 한계성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 나노유체(Nanofluid) 개념을 이용하여 절연유에 알루미나 및 질화알루미늄 나노분말을 미랑 분산시킨 나노절연유를 제조하고 이것의 열전달특성을 순수 절연유의 그것과 비교 평가함으로써, 냉각특성이 크게 개선된 새로운 냉매로서의 적용 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 다만 나노절연유를 제조함에 있어서 가장 큰 장애물은 오일에 대한 분산성 확보에 있기 때문에, 비드밀 및 초음파를 이용한 나노분말 응집체의 습식분산 및 분산제를 이용한 친유성 표면개질을 동시에 수행함으로써 장시간 안정된 분산성을 확보하도록 노력하였다. 나노유체의 열전도도 및 대류열전달계수는 비정상열선법을 이용하여 측정하였으며, 유체 속의 분말 분산 상태는 원심력을 이용한 분산안정성 평가장치 및 cryo FE-SEM을 이용하여 확인하였다. 또한 분말 형상이 대류열전달에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 알루미나 나노분말은 구상과 침상의 분말을 모두 사용하였고, 질화알루미늄 외에 다이아몬드 나노절연유도 함께 제조, 평가함으로써 냉각 및 절연특성, 그리고 물리화학적 안정성이 우수하고 실적용 가능성이 가장 높은 재료를 도출하고자 하였다.

HANARO is an open-tank-in-pool-type Korean research reactor that generates 30MW of thermal power. It differs from power plant reactor in that the heat generated by HANARO is exhausted into the atmosphere through a secondary cooling tower, thus maintaining the core temperature constant. During every monthly inspection of the cooling tower, large vibrations that exceeded the permissible limit were observed at cooling fan gear reducer No. 4 of the cooling tower. The purpose of this study is to identify the origin of the large vibration and to repair it. FFT spectrum analysis is performed to identify the part that caused the large vibration. The results of the frequency analysis showed that the vibration frequency was 354 Hz, which is twice the natural frequency of the pinion gear. A check of the pinion gear revealed that there was a crack on the surface of the pinion gear. After the gear was replaced, the reducer operated normally.

Thermal management is important for enhancing the performance and durability of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) and is taken into account in the design of PEMFCs. In general, cooling pates with circulating liquid coolant (water) are inserted between several unit cells to exhaust the reaction heat from PEMFCs. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were performed to characterize the uniform cooling performance of parallel multipass serpentine flow fields (MPSFFs) that were used as coolant flow channels in PEMFCs. The cooling performances of conventional serpentine and parallel flow fields were also evaluated for the purpose of comparison. The CFD results showed that the use of parallel MPSFFs can help reduce the temperature nonuniformity, and thus, can favorably enhance the performance and durability of PEMFCs.

This study was conducted to improve the power of PV module using a surface cooling system One of the unique characteristics of PV module is power drop as a module surface temperature increases due to the characteristics of crystalline silicon used in a solar cell. To overcome the output power reduction by temperature effect, module surface cooling using water circulation was performed. By cooling effect, module surface temperature drops maximally $20.3^{\circ}C$ predicting more than 10% power enhancement. Maximum deviation of voltage and current between a control and cooled module differed by 5.1 V and O.9A respectively. The maximum power enhancement by cooling system was 12.4% compared with a control module. In addition, cooling system can wash the module surface by water circulation so that extra power up of PV module can be achieved by removing particles on the surface which interfere solar radiation on the cells. Cooling system, besides, can reduce the maintenance cost and prevent accidents as a safety precaution while cleaning works. This system can be applied to the existing photovoltaic power generation facilities without any difficulties as well.

In this article, an advanced cooling surface based on micro-post arrays with non-homogeneous configurations is investigated and compared with conventional micro-post arrays with homogeneous configuration. The capillary performance of micro-post arrays are characterized using the capillary rate of rise experiments and numerical simulations which take into account the meniscus curvature. The experimental and numerical results show that that the capillary performance of the micro-post wick can be significantly enhanced, compared with the homogeneous type wick, by employing non-homogeneous configurations. The capillary performance is shown to be primarily a function of the solid fraction and increases linearly with decreasing solid fraction, regardless of the wick configuration, when the solid fraction is larger than 0.25. However, the capillary performance is found to be significantly reduced when the solid fraction falls below approximately 0.25.

Profiles development of melt spinning process of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was simulated via a numerical method and the radial temperature distribution was calculated using finite difference method. The spinning speed ranged from 1 km/min to 5 km/min was analyzed and the effect of spinning conditions on the radial temperature distribution was investigated. At low spinning speed, the difference between PLA and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was relatively small. As the spinning speed increased, the difference in velocity profile became prominent. PLA showed a slower spinning speed than PET and solidified more slowly. The temperature difference between the core and surface of the PLA filament reached 4.6 K, which was less than that of PET filament with a difference of 10.4 K. The radial temperature difference increased with increasing the cooling-air velocity and the spinning temperature.

현재, 표면개질에 주로 많이 사용되는 레이저는 세 종류로서, C $O_{2}$$laser(파장길이:10.6.\mum),$ Nd:YAG(neodymium-doped yettrium aluminum garnet) $laser(파장길이:1.06.\mum)$ 및 excimer laser(157~350nm) 등이다. 이 외에도 초기에는 ruby레이저빔이 사용되기도 하였으나, 현재는 많이 사용되고 있지 않다. 레이저 빔에 의한 표면개질에는 몇가지 장점이 있는데, 이러한 장점은 주로 급속가열과 급속냉각 효과에 기인하는 것이다. 즉, 1) 급냉효과에 의한 미세한 결정입자 형성, 2) 불안정상 (metastable phase) 또는 비정질 상 생성, 3) 열역학적 용해도 보다 높은 용해도. 4) 편석이 없는 균질한 미세조직, 5) 극히 낮은 기공도, 6) 좁은 열영향 부위, 7) 표면층과 모재 사이의 높은 결합력 등이다. 이 외에도 공정상의 장.단점들이 Ref.5, 6에 잘 요약 정리되어 있다. 지금까지 국내에서 레이저 표면개질에 대한 조사가 몇몇 있었으나, 본 조사에서는 보통 많이 다루어지지 않은 부분, 즉 충격경화 및 표면제어에 비중을 두었으며, 비용융 부분(I)과 용융부분(II)을 분리하여 정리하였다.
