The cooling stage greatly affects the product quality in the injection molding process. The cooling system that minimizes temperature variance in the product surface will improve the quality and the productivity of products. The cooling circuit optimization problem that was once solved by a response surface method with 4 design variables. It took too much time for the optimization as an industrial design tool. It is desirable to reduce the optimization time. Therefore, we tried the back-propagation algorithm of artificial neural network(BPN) to find an optimum solution in the cooling circuit design in this research. We tried various ways to select training points for the BPN. The same optimum solution was obtained by applying the BPN with reduced number of training points by the fractional factorial design.

The operation condition of recently designed pistons for high power and high speed diesel engine become more severe due to the increment of combustion pressure and temperature. So, in order to overcome high temperature, the application of the mono-metal cast aluminum alloy piston featuring an enclosed cast-in open cooling gallery has increased. In this research, it is developed a PCJ (piston cooling jet) rig tester, described the test procedure and validated the performance of sample piston cooling gallery design. Then the test rig will be used for developing the design technology of piston cooling gallery. The test rig is composed with oil reservoir and pumping system, oil jet system, piston fixing and moving system, collecting oil measuring system, and data measuring and recording system. It will be measured collecting efficiencies under conditions of a few piston positions, oil jet pressures and oil viscosities for a piston cooling gallery. Furthermore, the PCJ rig tester will be used for the optimum design of the oil cooling gallery which being applied to increase the cooling efficiency of pistons in diesel engines satisfying the EURO V emission regulation and the more.

This paper presents a study of heat dissipation away from the fuel combustion of a marine diesel engine. These engines are operated for long periods under high load conditions: so cooling systems are necessary for radiation and control of the high temperature levels. In the study, each component of the water cooling system was developed to achieve improvements in cooling and safety. Heat transfer considerations and arrangement design for the components were important and an intercooler and exhaust manifold incorporated. An optimization of the cooling water's flow path was achieved subject to the need for convenient maintenance. The 750Ps marine diesel engine was used for performance testing of the cooling system. The test results showed adequate cooling performance improvement.

In this study, we propose a cooling structure manufactured using a specialized three-dimensional (3D) printing design method. A cooling performance test system with complex geometry that used a thermoelectric module was manufactured using metal 3D printing. A test model was constructed by applying additive manufacturing simulation and computational fluid analysis techniques, and the correlation between each element and cooling efficiency was examined. In this study, the evaluation was conducted using a thermoelectric module base cooling efficiency measurement system. The contents were compared and analyzed by predicting the manufacturing possibility and cooling efficiency, through additive manufacturing simulation and computational fluid analysis techniques, respectively.

Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) system improves the fuel economy of hybrid electric vehicles by using idle stop and go function, and regenerative braking system. To obtain the high performance and durability of ISG motor under continuously high load condition, the motor needs to properly design the cooling system (cooling fan and cooling structure). In this study, we suggested the enhanced design by modifying the thermal design of the ISG motor and then analyzed the improvement of the cooling performance under high-speed condition and generating mode by CFD simulation. The temperatures at the coil and the magnet of the enhanced model were decreased by about $4^{\circ}C$ and $6^{\circ}C$, respectively, compared to those of the conventional model. Therefore, we verified the cooling performance enhancement of the novel thermal design in the case of core loss increment due to the higher speed condition.

This paper describes a general design procedure of regenerative cooling system for liquid rocket engine(LRE). From this design logic, cooling channels are designed and fabricated. The measured heat flux from firing test is similar to the heat flux predicted by design logic. Therefore, proposed design procedure of cooling channel can be applied to real LRE system. Also the result of firing test indicates that soot from combustion products have strong influence on the cooling characteristics of LRE.

High-power electronic chips have been advanced to such an extent that the heat dissipation capability of a system design has become one of the primary limiting factors. Therefore, thermal design must be considered in the early stage of the electronic system development. In present paper, the results of an experimental study on the forced convection cooling are presented to evaluate cooling performance of an electronic cabinet which in generally used for telecommunication system. Temperatures and thermal resistances are applied to compare the heat transfer characteristics for various locations of a fan unit as well as various configuration of non-uniform powering modules. As a result, the optimal configuration of a fan unit and powering configuration is suggested for the effective thermal design of telecommunication system.

This paper deals with a parametric study on cooling channel configurations to enhance the cooling effect. As a cooling effect has been increased, the exhaust gas by the plant from a manufacture is becoming deceased. To solve this problem, the design of a efficient cooling system is needed. In this paper, the cooling channel was analyzed to improve the cooling performance. The heat transfer rates depending on the number of baffle and the heiht of fin were obtained by using numerical simulation method. Three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Naiver-Stokes equations were used to estimate flow and heat transfer in cooling channel, and the $k-{\varepsilon}$ model for turbulence closure was employed.

A reciprocating engine installed on a normal category airplane shall be effectively cooled by air flown through the engine compartment. A airplane powerplant designer has to design cooling air inlets, baffles, seals, and outlets to maintain cylinder head temperatures and oil temperature under the limits, and show compliance with appropriate airworthiness standard. In this study, cooling designs of the installed engine and compliance requirements applicable to the cooling designs were reviewed, and engine cooling flight test results were evaluated for design changes. Engine cooling certification test will be conducted in a next step.

Cold Neutron Source(CNS) facility comprises moderator circulation system, helium cooling system, neutron guide and auxiliary sistems. To increase the amount of cold neutron, the thermal neutron should pass cold moderator at cryogenic temperature. As cold moderator in Hanaro, the liquid hydrogen or liquid deuterium will be used and the temperature in operation will be used and the temperature in operation will be maintained to be $250^{\circ}C$ below zero. To maintain the moderator at this cryogenic temperature. He refrigerator is used to cool it down in thermosiphon having natural circulation.
