Large planar military antenna boasts a range of electrical components, including TRA(Transmit-Receive Assembly), signal processors, etc. which engage in computations and calculations. These processes generate a significant amount of heat, leading to unforeseen consequences for the equipment. To mitigate these adverse effects, it's imperative to implement a cooling system that can effectively reduce heat-related issues. Given the antenna's intricate nature and the multitude of components it houses, a two-step estimation process is necessary. The first step involves a comprehensive model calculation to determine the total flow characteristics, while the second step entails a thermal analysis of individual TRA set. In this study, we depicted an antenna set using simplified 3D models of its components, considering their material and thermal properties. The sequential analysis process facilitated the calculation of branched flow rates, providing insights into the individual TRA. This approach also allowed us to design a cooling system for the TRA set, assessing its thermal stability in high-temperature environments. To ensure the optimal performance of TRA, breaking down the analysis into stages based on the cooling system's structure can assist operators in predicting numerical results more effectively.

The aim of the present study was to predict the variations in microstructure and deformation occurring during gas carburizing and quenching processes of a SCM420H planetary gear in a real production environment using the finite element method (FEM). The motivation for the present study came from the fact that previous FEM simulations have a limitation of the application to the real heat treatment process because they were performed with material properties provided by commercial programs and heat transfer coefficients (HTC) measured from laboratory conditions. Therefore, for the present simulation, many experimentally measured material properties were employed; phase transformation kinetics, thermal expansion coefficients, heat capacity, heat conductivity and HTC. Particularly, the HTCs were obtained by converting the cooling curves measured with a STS304 gear without phase transformations using an oil bath with an agitator in a real heat treatment factory. The FEM simulation was successfully conducted using the aforementioned material properties and HTC, and then the predicted results were well verified with experimental data, such as the cooling rate, microstructure, hardness profile and distortion.

New damping measurement equipment was designed using the dynamic strain gage and high speed analog to digital signal 12 bit converter and compared it with existing equipment. The damping properties of general material and high damping material were also studied by this machine. The SDC (specific damping capacity) was measured with various heat treatment condition, initial vibration amplitude and internal stress. The vibration amplitude of high damping material is decreased within nearly less than 0.4 second after applying the initial forced vibration. But that of general material is still vibrating at the same time. After furnace-cooling heat treatment, SDCmax of Fe-lGwt.%Cr system was more than 40% and that of Fe-5.5wt.%Al alloy was more than 30% after air-cooling heat treatment. Upon increasing of initial vibration amplitude, it is detected the migration of SDCmax into the region of small vibraton amplitude. Damping capacity is decreased rapidly as the internal stress Increases. Damping measurement equipment in the present study was ahln to give the more accurate results of damping properties in the small vibration amplitude region.

In this study, the heat transfer characteristics of the evaporative transpiration cooled system is analytically investigated considering the occurrence of the two-phase evaporation zone. Under the condition of the external heat input, analytical solutions of the three regions (i.e., vapor, liquid and two-phase evaporation zone) are respectively obtained using the matching conditions for the steady-state problem where properties are constant. As results, the length of the evaporation zone increases with increasing heat input and with decreasing mass flow rate. It also increases with increasing particle size, system porosity, thermal conductivity of material, inlet temperature and latent heat of coolant. The position of the lower interface of the evaporation zone have a lot of efforts on the evaporation zone length, the position of the upper interface penetrates deeper into the porous layer with lower thermal conductivity of porous material, higher system porosity and larger particle size.

The mold transformers have been widely used in underground substations in large building and have some advantages in comparison to oil-transformer, that is low fire risk, excellent environmental compatibility, compact size and high reliability. In addition, the application of mold transformer for outdoor is possible due to development of epoxy resin. The mold transformer generally has cooling duct between low voltage coil and high voltage coil. A mold transformer made by one body molding method has been developed for small size and ow loss, but it needs some cooling method because heat radiation between each winding is difficult. The life of transformer is significantly dependent on the thermal behavior in windings. Many transformer designers have calculated temperature distribution and hot spot point by finite element method(FEM) to analyze winding temperature rise. In this paper, The thermal analysis of pole mount mold transformer with one body molding by duct condition is investigated and the test result of temperature rise is compared with simulation data.

The mold transformers have been widely used in underground substations of large building and have some advantages when compared with oil-transformer. Those advantages are low fire risk, environmental compatibility, compact size and high reliability. The mold transformer is generally known to have cooling duct between low voltage and high voltage coil. To achieve better compact structure and low loss, mold transformers made by one body molding method has been developed. Nevertheless, such kinds of transformer need better cooling method because heat radiation between each winding is still of problem. The life of transformer is significantly dependent on the thermal behavior in windings. Many designers have calculated temperature distribution in transformers and hot spot point by finite element method(FEM) to analyze winding temperature rise. In this paper, the temperature distribution analysis of 100 kVA pole mold transformer for power distribution were investigated by FEM program and the thermal analysis results were compared with temperature rise test.

In the case that erosion and corrosion occurs in machinery and structure at the same time, the synergy effect by erosion-corrosion affects fatal effect to durability of machinery and structure. Therefore, in machinery and structure which use corrosion liquid, the study of the synergy effect of erosion-corrosion which affects metal material is requested. In this paper. the flow corrosion experiment about the effect of temperature change and liquid velocity change in sea water was carried out to study the characteristics of erosion-corrosion for tube material Cu heat exchanger The main results obtained are as follows. (1) Damage appearance of tube outside by erosion-corrosion becomes dull because electrode potentials of Cu tube is higher than electrode potential of STPG38 shell. (2) In the cooling system by sea water, the weight loss rate of Cu at tube outside liquid temperature of $70^{\circ}C$ is higher than that of temperature of $20^{\circ}C$. (3) In cooling system by sea water, the weight loss rate of Cu at liquid velocity of 5.1m/s is higher than that of velocity of 1.47m/s. But as the testing time passed, the weight loss rate of Cu at velocity of 5.1m/s is almost steady and becomes dull at velocity of 1.47m/s.

The objective of the present work is to examine the cooling effect of a water fire extinguishing agent containing NaBr(30%, w/w). The carbon steel and teflon were used as a hot solid. The temperature on the hot solid surface ranged from $70^{\circ}c$ to $116^{\circ}c$ and water droplet size was 2.6 mm in the experiments. It is suggested that regardless of the hot solid material, the indepth temperature of the case of NaBr solution is lower than that of pure water and the variation of indepth temperature of teflon is higher than that of carbon steel. Regardless of the hot solid material, the time averaged heat flux of the case of pure water is higher than that of NaBr solution. the apparent evaporation time of the case of pure water is shorter than that of NaBr solution.
