This paper presents a theoretical and numerical analysis for thermal isolation of silicon micro-structures, especially for a large size with poor thermal conductivity, as well as straightforward solution for such an issue. Additional metal patterns underneath the silicon structures effectively reduces the thermal isolation. Heat transfer mechanism is analyzed using an equivalent circuit of thermal network including plasma, a heat source, heat capacitors, and thermal resistances. The FEM simulation was carried out to investigate the temperature change of silicon micro-structures according to process time. The temperature of silicon micro-structures with 2 ${\mu}m$ thick chrome layer at a steady state is $86^{\circ}C$, an approximately 40% decrease from the silicon microstructure without thin metal ($122^{\circ}C$)

The shape optimization is performed to minimize the judder of ventilated disc brake rotor that is induced by the thermal deformation of the disc. A three-dimensional finite element is developed to analyze the coupled system of temperature and displacement field, and the thermal conductivity and mechanical stiffness matrices are simultaneously taken into account. To reduce computing time, an equivalent heat transfer rate is introduced approximating the heat transfer rate on the disc surface. A deformation factor is introduced to describe the thermal deformation causing the judder. The deformation factor is chosen as an objective function in the optimization process. Consequently an optimum design is then performed minimizing the deformation factor with the design variables of the shape of the disc. The optimum design procedure presented in this study is proven to be an effective method of minimizing the judder, and it reduces the thermal deformation by 23% of the initial geometry.

The effects of geologic structures such as rock joins and bedding planes on the thermal conductivity of a discontinuous rock mass are studied. The expressions for the equivalent thermal conductivities of jointed rock masses are derived and found to be anisotropic. The degree of anisotropy depends primarily on the thermal properties contrast between the joint phase and surrounding intact rock, the joint density expressed as volume fraction and the inclination angle of the joint. Within the context of 2-dimensional finite element heat transfer scheme, the isotherms around a circular hole are analyzed for both the isotropic and anisotropic rock masses in 3 different thermal boundary conditions. i.e. temperature, heat flux and convection boundary conditions. The temperature in the stratified anisotripic rock mass is greatly influenced by the thermal properties of the rock formation in contact with the heat source. Using the excavation-temperature coupled elastic plastic finite element method, analyzed is the thermo-mechanical stability of a circular opening subjected to 10$0^{\circ}C$ at a depth of 527m. It is found that the thermal stress concentration was enough to deteriorate the stability and form a plastic yield zone around the opening, in contrast to the safety factor greater than 2 resulted form the excavation-only analysis.

Thermal analysis of the CANDU spent fuel dry storage canister is very important to ensure the integrity of the spent fuel. The analyses have been conducted using a conservative approach, with a particular focus on the peak cladding temperature (PCT) of the fuel rods in the canister. In this study, we have performed a realistic thermal analysis using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The canister contains 9 fuel bundle baskets. A detailed analysis of even a single basket requires significant computational resources. To overcome this challenge, we replaced each basket with an equivalent heat conductor (EHC), of which effective thermal conductivity (ETC) is developed from the results of detailed CFD calculations of a fuel bundle basket. Then, we investigated the effects of some conservative models, ultimately aiming at a realistic analysis. The results revealed: (i) The influence of convective heat transfer in the basket cannot be ignored, but it's less significant than expected. (ii) Modeling of the lifting rod is crucial, as it plays a decisive role in axial heat transfer at the center of the canister and significantly reduces the PCT. (iii) Convection within the canister is very important, as it not only reduces the PCT but also shifts its location upwards.

A polyaniline-gold composite was prepared via the polymerization of aniline hydrochloride with or without water-soluble graphite oxide using auric acid as an oxidant. The reaction products were characterized using Xray photoelectron spectroscopy. The thermal stability and embedded crystallinity of the composites were also investigated using thermogravimetric and X-ray diffraction analyses. The electrical properties of the composites were examined using cyclic voltammetric measurements at room temperature and temperature-dependent DC conductivity within 300-500 K. Compared to pure graphene oxide and polyaniline-gold composite, the polyaniline-gold-graphene composite exhibited higher crystallinity and thermal stability, and higher current density response under equivalent conditions.

지중 열교환 시스템은 지속적인 에너지 효율의 개선으로 공간 냉난방을 위한 친환경적 에너지 기술로 주목받고 있다. 지중에 매설된 파이프는 내부 유체 순환을 통하여 인접한 지반과 열적 상호작용으로부터 직접적인 열에너지 교환을 수행한다. 하지만, 파이프의 수치모델링에서 열-수리가 연관된 난류해석과 파이프의 긴 세장비에 의한 메쉬사이즈의 부적합성은 열교환 시스템의 적절한 수치해석을 어렵게 하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 파이프 내부 유체흐름에 대한 에너지 보존의 법칙을 적용하여 지배방정식을 유도하였으며, Galerkin수식화와 시간적분을 통하여 열-수리 연동일차원 파이프 요소를 개발하였다. 그리고 제안된 파이프 요소를 기 개발된 다공질 재료를 위한 열-수리-역학(Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical) 해석을 위한 유한요소 프로그램과 결합하였다. 개발된 요소를 이용한 수치해석 결과는 열응답 시험(Thermal Response Test) 결과로부터 주위지반의 유효 열전도도를 평가하기 위하여 사용하는 선형 열원 모델이 인접 파이프간의 열적상호작용과 파이프의 단부효과에 의하여 지반의 열전도도를 과다 평가하는 것으로 보여주었다. 따라서 열응답 시험 해석 결과에 대한 역해석을 적용하여 최적의 수렴성을 보여주는 변환행렬을 제시하였다.

With recent demand for the renewable energy resources, we conducted a research on the energy conversion and storage device of supercapacitor. The hybrid graphene-zinc oxide(GZO) electrodes for the supercapacitors (SCs) were fabricated and investigated. To increase the electrical conductivity of the GZO electrode, the rapid thermal annealing(RTA) in $Ar/H_2$(10%) atmosphere was applied and the effect was examined by comparing it with RTA at Ar atmosphere. In Raman spectroscopy, the electrodes annealed at 400? in $Ar/H_2$ atmosphere showed a lower ratio of D/G peak than that of annealed at Ar atmosphere, and had a larger specific capacitance(Sc) in the cyclic voltammetry(CV), and a lower the equivalent series resistance(ESR) in the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS). The reason seems to come from the better mixing of the graphene and zinc oxide by the RTA in $Ar/H_2$(10%).

The properties of the conductor.mechanical, thermal, and electrical-are the key information in the design and optimization of superconducting coils. Particularly, in devices using second generation (2G) high temperature superconductors (HTS), whose base materials (for example, the substrate or stabilizer) and dimensions are adjustable, a design process for conductor optimization is one of the most important factors to enhance the electrical and thermal performance of the superconducting system while reducing the cost of the conductor. Recently, we developed a numerical program that can be used for 2G HTS conductor optimization. Focusing on the five major properties, viz. the electrical resistivity, heat capacity, thermal conductivity, Z-value, and enthalpy, the program includes an electronic database of the major base materials and calculates the equivalent properties of the 2G HTS conductors using the dimensions of the base materials as the input values. In this study, the developed program is introduced and its validity is verified by comparing the experimental and simulated results obtained with several 2G HTS conductors.

As a case study on aspect ratio behavior, Kaolin, zeolite, TiO₂, pozzolan and diatomaceous earth minerals are investigated using wet milling with 0.3 mm media. The grinding process using small media of 0.3 pai is suitable for current work processing applications. Primary particles with average particle size distribution D₅₀, ~6 ㎛ are shifted to submicron size, D₅₀ ~0.6 ㎛ after grinding. Grinding of particles is characterized by various size parameters such as sphericity as geometric shape, equivalent diameter, and average particle size distribution. Herein, we systematically provide an overview of factors affecting the primary particle size reduction. Energy consumption for grinding is determined using classical grinding laws, including Rittinger's and Kick's laws. Submicron size is obtained at maximum frictional shear stress. Alterations in properties of wettability, heat resistance, thermal conductivity, and adhesion increase with increasing particle surface area. In the comparison of the aspect ratio of the submicron powder, the air heat conductivity and the total heat release amount increase 68 % and 2 times, respectively.
