  • In most LMFBR(Liquid Metal Fast Breed Reactor) design, the operating temperature is very high and the time-dependent creep and stress-rupture effects become so important in reactor structural design. Therefore, unlike with conventional PWR, the normal operating conditions can be basically dominant design loading because the hold time at elevated temperature condition is so long and enough to result in severe total creep ratcheting strains during total service lifetime. In this paper, elevated temperature design of the conceptually designed baffle annulus regions of KALIMER(Korea Advanced Liquid MEtal Reactor) reactor internal strictures is carried out for normal operating conditions which have the operating temperature 53$0^{\circ}C$ and the total service lifetime of 30 years. For the elevated temperature design of reactor internal structures, the ASME Code Case N-201-4 is used. Using this code, the time-dependent stress limits, the accumulated total inelastic strain during service lifetime, and the creep-fatigue damages are evaluated with the calculation results by the elastic analysis under conservative assumptions. The application procedures of elevated temperature design of the reactor internal structures using ASME Code Case N-201-4 with the elastic analysis method are described step by step in detail. This paper will be useful guide for actual application of elevated temperature design of various reactor types accounting for creep and stress-rupture effects.

  • Linear motor has been considered to be the most suitable electric machine for high speed and high precision linear motion control. Thrust of linear motor is one of the important factor to specify motor performance. Maximum thrust can be obtained by increasing the current in conductor and is relative to the sizes of conductor and magnet. But, the current and the size of conductor have an effect on temperature of linear motor. Therefore, it is practically important to find design results that can effectively maximize the thrust of linear motor within limited range of temperature. Finite element analysis was applied to calculate thrust and numerical solutions were compared with experiment. The temperature of the conductor was calculated by the thermal resistance which was measured by experiment. The optimum design process was coded by the ADPL of ANSYS which is a commercial finite element analysis software. Design variables and constraints were chosen based on manufacturing feasibility and existing products. As a result, it is shown that temperature of linear motor plays an important role in determining optimum design.

  • This paper is about elimination the situation in which gas sensor data becomes inaccurate due to temperature control when a semiconductor gas sensor is driven. Recently, interest in semiconductor gas sensors is high because semiconductor sensors can be driven with small and low power. Although semiconductor-type gas sensors have various advantages, there is a problem that they must operate at high temperatures. First temperature control was configured to adjust the temperature value of the heater mounted on the gas sensor. At that time, in controlling the heater temperature, gas sensor data are fluctuated despite supplying same gas concentration according to the temperature controlled. To resolve this problem, gas and temperature are extracted as a data. And then, a relation function is constructed between gas and temperature data. At this time, it is included low pass filter to get the stable data. In this paper, we can find optimal gain and parameters between gas and temperature data by using genetic algorithm.

  • In this paper, we present thermal dependancy of LED package element by changing temperature of MCPCB for design high efficiency LED lamp, and confirmed influence of LED chip against temperature with analysis of thermal resistance and thermal capacitance. As increasing temperature, WPOs were decreased from 25 to 22.5 [%] and optical power were also decreased. that is decreased reason of optical power that forward voltage was declined by decrease of energy bandgap. Therefore optical power by temperature of MCPCB should consider to design lamp for street light and security light. Moreover, compensation from declined optical efficiency is demanded when LED package is composed. Also, thermal resistances from chip to metal PCB were decreased from 12.18 to 10.8[$^{\circ}C/W$] by changing temperature. Among the thermal resistances, the thermal resistance form chip to die attachment was decreased from 2.87 to 2.5[$^{\circ}C/W$] and was decreased 0.72[$^{\circ}C/W$] in Heat Slug by chaning temperature. Therefore, because of thermal resistance gap in chip and heat slug, reliability and endurance of high power LED affect by increasing non-radiative recombination in chip from heat.

  • High temperature size exclusion chromatography (SEC) has been used widely for the characterization of crystalline polymers, for which high temperature operation above the polymer melting temperature is required to dissolve the polymers. However, this high temperature operation has many advantages in SEC separation in addition to merely increasing polymer solubility. At high temperature the eluent viscosity decreases, which in turn decreases the column backpressure and increases the diffusivity of the analytes. Therefore, many reports on the high temperature operation of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) have focused on shortening the analysis time and enhancing the resolution. However, the application of high temperature SEC analysis to exploit the merits of high temperature operation is scarce. In this article, therefore, we report on a new apparatus design for high temperature SEC.

  • To evaluate the variation of spring stiffness in nuclear plant operating condition, load-displacement tests ($P-{\delta}$ test) were performed using two kinds of space grid springs in high temperature and high pressure water. With increasing temperature, stiffness of each spring gradually decreased except $100{\sim}150^{\circ}C$. It is apparently showed that spring with convex shape had a relatively high stability of spring stiffness at high temperature compared with I-shaped spring. It is suggested that the variation of spring stiffness with temperature and spring shape should be considered as an important variable in the design and analysis of the fuel assembly.

  • Since the structural temperature of a flight vehicle flying at high speed rises rapidly due to aerodynamic heating, it is necessary for optimum structural design to obtain proper material properties at high temperature by taking into account of its operational environment. For a special alloy, analysis data on strength change due to exposure time to high temperature are very limited, and most of them are for an exposure time longer than 30 minutes for long term operations. In this study, base and weld metal samples of Ti-6Al-4V alloy had been prepared and high temperature tensile tests with induction heating were performed, and then high temperature strength characteristics and strength recovery characteristics through cooling have been analyzed. Pre-tests to determine maximum heating rate were performed, and response characteristics for temperature control were confirmed. As a result, high temperature tensile strength appeared to be lower than that of room temperature, but it was higher than that of high temperature of 30 minite exposure listed in MMPDS. In strength recovery through cooling Ti-6Al-4V alloy has shown higher recovery rate compared with other alloys.

  • Mechanical and thermal properties of composite sandwich wall panels are affected by changes in their external environment. Humidity and temperature changes induce stress on wall panels and their core connectors. Under the action of ambient temperature, temperature on the outer layer of the wall panel changes greatly, while that on the inner layer only changes slightly. As a result, stress concentration exists at the intersection of the connector and the wall blade. In this paper, temperature field and stress field distribution of UHPC-RW-RC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete - Rock Wool - Reinforced Concrete) wall panel under high temperature-sprinkling and heating-freezing conditions were investigated by using the general finite element software ABAQUS. Additionally, design of the connection between the wall panel and the main structure is proposed. Findings may serve as a scientific reference for design of high performance composite sandwich wall panels.
