The objective of the present work is to examine evaporation cooling of droplet due to surface roughness on a heated surface. The surface temperatures varied from 80-$160^{\circ}C$ on aluminum alloy (AL 2024) md surface roughness was 0.l8$\mu\textrm{m}$ 1.36$\mu\textrm{m}$. The results are as follows; Regardless of surface roughness, as droplet diameter is bigger, the in-depth temperature of solid decreases and evaporation time increases. In the case of same initial temperature on the heated surface, as droplet diameter is smaller and small surface roughness is bigger, evaporation time decreases and time averaged heat flux increases.

A series of fatigue test were carried out on scarfed lap joints (SLJ) using in airfoil siding to explore the effect of structural details, such as rows of rivets, lap angles, on its fatigue performance. Finite element (FE) analysis was employed to explore the effect of lap angle on load transfer and the stress evolution around the rivet hole. At last, the fatigue lives were predicted by nominal stress approach and critical plane approach. Both of the test results and predicted results showed that fatigue life of SLJ was remarkably increased after introducing lap angle into the faying surface. Specimen with the lap angle of $1.68^{\circ}$ exhibits the best fatigue performance in the present study.

The plane stress fracture toughness for thin aluminum alloy(2024-T3 and 7075-T6) specimens are characterized by using compact-tension (CT) specimens. Anti-buckling plates were fabricated on both sides of the thin CT specimens to prevent the buckling phenomena which caused by the 45.deg. C plastic yielding at the crack tip under the plane stress condition. The plane stress fracture toughnesses determined by three different procedures are compared with each others. The plane stress fracture toughnesses are also compared with a few published values which were determined by using center-cracked panel specimens.

The thermal performance of a flat-strip heat pipe with inner grooves and the screen mesh cover was investigated experimentally. The heat pipes were made of 2024 aluminum alloy of which the dimensions were 30 (W) $\times$ 4 (T) $\times$ 150 (L) mm. The cross sectional dimensions of inner groove were 0.4$\times$0.9 mm and the space between grooves was 0.6 mm. To enhance the capillary force, foe screen meshes were attached to cover the grooved inner surface. In the grooved heat pipes without screen mesh cover, the maximum thermal load of 180 W (12 W/$cm^2$) was achieved for operating temperature below $130^{\circ}C$ at horizontal position. The heat pipes with screen mesh cover showed the thermal resistances less than one third of those without screen mesh cover, and showed less fluctuation in the thermal resistance values. Furthermore, the thermal performance of the former exhibited less dependence on the tilt angle and the fill charge ratio.

Nowdays, the high strength aluminum alloys are broadly used for structural purpose, but the practical strengthening method by aging treatment are not much available. So that, in this study, in order to investigate the effect of aging treatment for strengthening on the fracture characteristics of the domestic high strength Al alloy (A2024BE), the variations of the aging temperature and time were taken after solution treatment. By microstructural examination, and by SEM fractographs of the fractures, the effects of aging temperature and time were investigated, considering on the fracture behaviour. The results obtained are as follows: 1) It was confirmed by microstructural investigation that the aging temperature of $190^{\circ}C$ and the aging time of 12hours were optimal to get more sound microstructure with distribution of uniform precipitation. 2) By step aging treatment, the proper aging time for obtaining the similar microstructure without any microstructural defects could be shortened in half the normal aging time. 3)By examining the SEM fractographs of the fracture surface, it was found that, regardless of the aging treatment time and temperature, all were intergranular ductile fractures, but the aging treatment at $190^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours resulted in dimple-type-transgranular and intergranular-ductile-frature.
