The surface defects of an aluminum tube for an OPC drum have been analyzed using a scanning microscopy(SEM) and an energy dispersive X-ray analyze.(EDX). The SEM/EDX system, which may provide good information on the surface defects and their distributions, provides an optical diameter of an impurity and a chemical composition. These are strongly related on the coated film thickness and quality of an OPC drum, which is a key element of a toner cartridge for a laser printer. The experimental results show that the local deformations, scratch wear, and flaws are produce the non-uniform coating layers, which may be removed by a manufacturing process of an aluminum tube. The major parameters on the coating quality of an OPC drum are the impurities of an aluminum tube such as silicon, oxygen, calcium, carbon, sulphur, chlorine, and others. These impurities may be removed by an ingot molding, extrusion and drawing, quality control, and packing processes with a strict manufacturing technology.

This study presents comparison of the air side heat transfer and friction characteristics in a heating condition between Louver fin-tube heat exchangers and aluminum heat exchangers. Experiments are performed for the Louver fin-tube heat exchangers and aluminum heat exchangers using a calorimeter, which is designed based on air-enthalpy method described in ASHRAE standards. The air velocities its are varied from 0.7 to 1.6 m/s with 0.3 m/s interval. A study result shows that the heat transfer performances of aluminum heat exchangers are $40{\sim}80%$ higher than those of Louver fin-tube heat exchangers per unit volume, mass and heat transfer area.

To analyze the bending collapse behavior of an aluminum square tube beam under a bending load, a finite element simulation for the four-point bending test has been performed. Using an aluminum tube beam specimen partly inserted with two steel bars, the local buckling deformation near the center of the tube beam was induced. The maximum bending load and the bending collapse behavior obtained from the numerical simulation were in good agreement with experimental results. Using a combination of the four-point bending test and its finite element simulation, analysis of the local buckling and the accompanied bending collapse behavior of aluminum tube beam could be quantitative accomplished.

A tube hydroformability testing system was designed and manufactured to observe the forming steps and to provide arbitrary combination of internal pressure and axial fred. The forming limit diagram of an aluminum tube was obtained from the free bulge test and the T-shape forming test using this system, giving the criteria for predicting failure in the hydroforming process. The hydroformability of aluminum tube according to different conditions of a prebending process was discussed, based on the finite element analysis and the forming limit test. The effects of 2D and 3D pretending on the tube hydroforming process of an automotive trailing arm were evaluated and compared with each other.

The aluminum composite with dispersed high entropy alloy were developed by stir casting involving the powder-in-tube method. First, Al_0.5CoCrCuFeNi high entropy alloy (HEA) powder was made by mechanical alloying, and the powder was extruded in a tube-type aluminum container to form HEA precursor. The extruded HEA precursor was then dispersed in the aluminum matrix via stir casting. As a result, Fe-Cr-Ni based high-entropy phases was uniformly formed in the aluminum matrix, revealing ~158, 166, 235% enhancement of tensile strength by incorporating 1, 3, and 5 wt% HEA particles, respectively.

본 연구에서는 이중관형 열회수 환기장치의 제품 적용 가능성을 검토하기 위해 성능 시험을 수행하였으며 이중관의 내측관의 재질에 변경에 따른 검토를 하기 위해 종이관, 알루미늄관, 폴리머관을 제작하여 동일한 급/배기 풍량을 인가하여 측정하였다. 온도 교환 효율은 모든 경우에서 알루미늄관의 경우가 가장 큰 값을 나타냈으며 종이관과 폴리머관은 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 이는 내측관으로 사용된 재료의 열전도율과 두께의 차이 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 습도 교환 효율은 모든 경우에서 종이관의 경우가 가장 큰 값을 나타냈으며 알루미늄관과 폴리머관은 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 이는 종이 재질은 습도 교환이 가능하지만 알루미늄과 폴리머재질은 습도 교환이 불가능하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 습도 교환과 온도 교환의 두 값을 포함하는 전열 교환 효율은 종이관의 경우가 가장 큰 값을 나타냈으며 알루미늄관과 폴리머관은 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 에너지계수(COE)는 현열과 잠열교환이 동시에 일어나는 종이관의 경우 전열에너지계수 값을 현열교환만 일어나는 알루미늄관과 폴리머관은 현열에너지계수를 비교해 보면 종이관의 에너지계수가 가장 큰 값을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 이중관형 열회수 환기장치의 내부관 재질에 따른 성능을 비교 분석 하였으며 환기장치로 적용이 가능한 것을 알 수 있었다.

Hydroformability of 6061 and 7075 aluminum tube materials was studied by warm hydroforming experiments. A special tooling and heating system was designed and manufactured in order to perform warm hydroforming between room temperature and $300^{\circ}C$. The control of tube temperature for warm hydroforming was made by the control of temperature of oil medium. Warm hydroformability was analyzed by tube appearances, tube elongation and hardness values. Hydroforming characteristics of 6061 and 7075 tubes showed different temperature dependence between room temperature and $300^{\circ}C$. The difference in hydroformabilities of 6061 and 7075 at elevated temperatures was interpreted by the different sensitivity to dynamic strain aging of both aluminum materials.
