Some of non-isothermal analysis methods are applied to CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 glass system to find the kinetics parameters of crystallisation, activation energy, Avrami component and frequency factor. The results using the non-isothermal analysis were compared to that of microstructure experiment. Analysis of the result has enabled to some methods to be to recommend as being the most appropriate equation to use in a glass system. It was shown that in the thermal analysis using the non-isothermal method of Kissinger, Augis-Bennett, Bansal, and Marotta, the calculation of activation energy is not much different, while Avrami component and frequency factor are different from applied each methods.

Gravitational lensed quasar systems are usually explained by a source quasar lensed by a galaxy that can be approximated by an isothermal sphere. But most galaxies have a supermassive black hole (SMBH) at its center. We study the lensing by an isothermal sphere with a central SMBH. The additional lensing effects of a SMBH on the number, position, and magnification of lensed images are investigated. We apply the analysis to observed lens systems including Q0957+561. We also study the lensing by an elliptical mass distribution with a SMBH.

A numerical method for analyzing non-isothermal, rigid-viscoplastic deformation problems has been presented. As an application, a stretch forming of sheet metals, including temperature effect, has been analyzed by a three-dimensional finite element method. Bishop`s step-wise decoupled method is adopted to solve thermomechanical coupling between deformation and heat transfer. Using the method, the effect of temperature on strain distribution during stretch forming is investigated. By comparison of the non-isothermal results with isothermal analysis, the importance of including temperature effects in the analysis of metal forming problems is emphasized. The predicted results were in good agreement with the existing experimental measurements at the different punch temperatures and dome heights investigated. It is also found that any increase of the punch temperature appeared to postpone the strain localization process by lowering the peak strain in the critical punch-sheet contact region and by normalizing strain distribution within the specimen.

Numerical results of heat transfer from a horizontal isothermal surface are presented for wall temperature T$_{w}$ = 0 .deg. C and ambient water temperature, T$_{\infty}$, from 1 .deg. C to 15 .deg. C. They include streamlines, temperature profiles, local heat transfer coefficients and average Nusselt numbers for the entire flow fields. For a upward-facing horizontal isothermal surface, the results show steady two dimensional flow regimes for T$_{\infty}$ .leg. 4.4 .deg. C, but no solution was obtained above T$_{\infty}$ = 4.4 .deg. C. For a downward-facing horizontal isothermal surface, the flow regimes are steady two dimensional flow for T$_{\infty}$ .geq. 4.9 .deg. C, and the numerical calculation was failed below this ambient water temperature. The mean Nusselt number has its maximum value at about T$_{\infty}$ = 3.4 .deg. C for upward-facing horizontal isothermal surface. For the case of downward-facing horizontal isothermal surface, the mean Nusselt number increases as the ambient water temperature increases.es.s.s.

To investigate the optimum design conditions of Stirling Engines at the preliminary design stage, comparative study between adoabatoc analysis based on an approximate analytical solution to the Ideal Adiabatic Model and the existing isothermal analysis has been carried out. The optimum phase angle obtained from adiabatic analysis to achieve the maximum work with given combination of design parameters is greater than that from isothermal analysis, while the optimum swept volume ratio is smaller. Effect of variation in the temperature ratio on the work parameter is proved to be stronger in adiabatic analysis. On the contrary, the work parameter by adiabatic analysis is less sensitive to a change in the dead volume ratio. Especially in adiabatic analysis there exists the optimum dead volume ratio maximizing the work parameter, which may provide a lower limit of it. Considering that the adiabatic model is more reasonable, signifiant differences between two methods lead to the conclusion that adiabatic analysis is preferable to isothermal one for the preliminary design of Stirling Engines.

The aim of this study is to find out comfortable combinations of layered system for outdoor activities through water vapor permeability. Layering fabrics is an effective way of controlling water transport properties in fabric systems for outdoor activities and analysis of these systems may be useful for designing comfortable clothing. Seven fabrics were chosen for the experiments: two fabrics for base layer, two for the middle layer and three for the shell layer. A total of 12 different layered systems, which are all possible combinations were established using selected fabrics. The water vapor permeability was measured using JIS L1099 under isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. It was found that layered system was working together as a whole having influence on each layer, though every layer offers varying degree of water vapor permeability. Furthermore, it was also found that an optimal combination of the three layered system does exist although the combination may differ according to the ways. The shell layer is the greatest effect of water vapor permeability under isothermal and non-isothermal conditions within layered system.

In hot closed-die forging the load increases rapidly near the final stage. Preforming operation is important to both the sound final forging and die-service life. In this study, the material flows during preforming and final forging are investigated. The physical modeling with Plasticine as a model material showed clear flow patterns. The forging process were numerically simulated by the finite element method with the isothermal and the non-isothermal models. The flow patten of the isothermal simulation showed good agreements with the experiments. Temperature changes and pressure distributions on the die surfaces during one cycle of the forging process were obtained from the non-isothermal simulation. High pressure and temperature were developed at certain areas of the die surfaces. It was concluded that those areas usually coincide with each other and should be distributed by the preforming operations to enhance the die life.

The non-isothermal crystallization behavior of ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) copolymer was investigated by DSC and imaging FTIR analysis. Modified non-isothermal Avrami analysis was applied to interpret the crystallization behavior of ETFE. It was found that the less linearity in ln[-ln(1-X(t))] vs. ln(t) plot was obtained in thermal analysis comparison with imaging FTIR due to relatively small crystallization enthalpy change in ETFE. It means that imaging FTIR measured by overall IR absorption intensity change due to the crystallization was found to be effective to understand the non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of ETFE. In addition, the optical transmittance of ETFE was studied. The crystallite developed by slow cooling caused the light scattering and resulted in the increase of haze and the lowering of transmittance up to 8%. From our results, it was confirmed that cooling rate is an important processing parameter for maintaining optical transmittance of ETFE as a replacement material for glass.

This paper deals with dynamic behaviors of a free-piston Vuilleumier heat pump system, which are characterized by stroke of each diplacer/stroke ratio, operating frequency and phase angle. Based on the Isothermal Model, basic equations of motion are derived and linearized. In particular, dependence of damping coefficients of the dynamic parameters are taken into account in the formulation, which does not bring additional difficulties in the analysis. In order to investigate effects of design conditions on the dynamic parameters are taken into account in the formulation, which does not bring additional difficulties in the analysis. In order to investigate effects of design conditions on the dynamic characteristics, calculations are performed for the prototype made by Schulz and Thomas and results are qualitatively compared with their data obtained from the analysis as well as the experiment. It appears that they made a mistake in evaluating the hysteresis loss of the gas spring in their analysis. And, the present results show a better agreement with their experimental data than those by their own analysis. Although there are some unresolved aspects such as frequency variations with respect to the mean pressure and the hot space temperature, it is expected that the present analysis may be an effective tool for prediction of dynamics of a free- pistion VM machine at the preliminary design stage.

Due to their low density, high specific strength and electromagnetic interference shielding, magnesium alloy sheets are used increasingly more often in automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries. However, magnesium ally sheets should be usually formed at elevated temperature because of their poor formability at room temperature. For the use of magnesium alloy sheets for an industrial, their mechanical properties at elevated temperature and appropriate forming process conditions have to be developed. In this study, the warm deep drawing process of AZ31 sheets is studied numerically by non-isothermal simulation. The difference between the isothermal simulation results and the non-isothermal simulation results and the progress of warm forming are discussed.
