From a viewpoint of heat stress at high temperatures and contact thermal resistance, it is confirmed that the optimal structure is the skeleton structure using Cu substrate on the cooling side, which has excellent heat conductivity and the optimal installation method is to adopt a carbon sheet and a mica sheet to the high temperature side, where Si grease is applied to the low temperature side, under pressurized condition. The power of the developed modules indicated 0.5W in an $FeSi_2$ module and 3.8 W with a SiGe module at 823K, respectively.

The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine has advantage for reducing the NOx and P.M. simultaneously. Therefore, HCCI engine is receiving attention as a low emission diesel engine concept. This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of combustion and exhaust emission for operating conditions in a direct injection type of HCCI engines such as supercharged and naturally aspirated using diesel fuel and additive. From the experimental result, we found that cool flame was always appeared and also it was difficult to control combustion characteristics by changing the injection timing in HCCI. In addition, at the lean air-fuel ratio and high speed range, it was observed that charging air pressure, additive or increasing intake air temperature is effective to increase combustion performance and reduce exhaust emission. We concluded that chemical reaction by the increasing intake air temperature or additive without physical improvement has limitation for reduction of exhaust emission.

The use of magnesium alloys meets the need of reducing weight of componests(especially in automotive and aerospace industry) keeping unmodified their mechanical properties. The adoption of magnesium alloys in sheet forming processes is still limited, due to their low formability at room temperature caused by the hexagonal crystal structure. In this study, the authors aim to understand the process condition which can lead to a successful improvement in the formability of a magnesium alloy(AZ31). Experiment and simulations of deep drawing were doned at various warm temperature for the blank and tool(holde and die)while the punch was kept at room temperature by cooling wale. in order to confirm that the deep drawing performance of magnesium alloy can be considerably enhanced with using the local heating and cooling technique.

The vortex tube is a sample device for separating a compressed gaseous fluid stream into two flows of high and low temperature without any chemical reactions. The phenomena of energy separation through the vortex tube were investigated experimentally, to see the effects of the number of nozzle holes on the energy separation. The experiment was carried out with the number of nozzle holes from 1 to 10 by varying inlet pressure and cold mass fraction. The experimental results were indicated that the effective number of nozzle holes for the best cooling performance was found as 4. Also, to find effective use in a given operation conditions, the temperature difference of cold air and the cooling capacity of vortex tube was compared. The result is that cooling capacity was more important than temperature difference of cold air.

Miniature J-T cryocooler using nitrogen or argon has been widely adopted in cooling infrared sensor for space/military application and cryosurgery. Argon or nitrogen, however, has relatively low specific cooling power compared to nitrous oxide, but the ultimate operating temperature is much lower than nitrous oxide. On the other hand, nitrous oxide has large specific cooling power, but the operating temperature is limited to its boiling point (>183K). To compromise the different characteristics of these gases, the performance of miniature J-T cryocooler using argon and nitrous oxide mixture is investigated in this paper. Three different compositions of mixture (25/75, 50/50, and 75/25 molar fraction) are blended and tested. The results are compared with the experiments of pure argon and pure nitrous oxide. The experimental results show some encouraging potentiality of mixed refrigerant J-T cryocooler. The critical clogging problem, however, was observed with argon and nitrous oxide mixture, and the lowest achievable temperature with this mixture was limited to the freezing point of nitrous oxide. The paper discusses detailed clogging process of the mixture and suggests an alternative.

Mathematical modeling of combustion characteristics in HVOF thermal spray processes was carried out on the basis of equilibrium chemistry. The main objective of this work was the development of a computation code which allows to determine chemical composition of combustion products, adiabatic flame temperature, thermodynamic and transport properties. The free energy minimization method was employed with the descent Newton-Raphson technique for numerical solution of systems of nonlinear thermochemical equations. Adiabatic flame temperature was calculated by using a Newton#s iterative method incorporating the computation module of chemical composition. The performance of this code was verified by comparing computational results with data obtained by ChemKin code and in the literature. Comparisons between the calculated and measured flame temperatures showed a deviation less than 2%. It was observed that adiabatic flame temperature augments with increase in combustion pressure; the influence was significant in the region of low pressure but becomes weaker and weaker with increase in pressure. Relationships of adiabatic flame temperature, dissociation ratio and combustion pressure were also analyzed.

Numerical analysis using three dimensional finite volume method for the discretization, adaptive grid method for the numerical accuracy, multiple rotating frame method for the rotating body and the standard $k-{\epsilon}$ model for the turbulent flow was performed to understand the heat transfer phenomena and to improve the efficiency of the scroll compressor. The temperature measurement was carried out under ARI condition. It was found that the fluid temperature in the compressor was predicted accurately while the temperature of the motor coil showed large discrepancy between the calculation and experiment due to the large anisotropy of the conductivity and non homogeneity. We found that the efficiency of the compressor depends on the inlet temperature of the compressing part and the flow pattern around the inlet region of the compressing part influences the inlet temperature due to high surface temperature of the main frame. The efficiency of the compressor using Coanda effect is higher than the previous one because the smooth suction at the inlet region of the compressing part leads to low heat transfer to the refrigerant of the compressor.

It is known that sulfide at the $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ ($CIGSe_2$) surface plays a positive role in $CIGSe_2$ solar cells. We investigated the substitution of S with Se on the $CIGSe_2$ surface in S atmosphere. We observed that the sulfur content in the $CIGSe_2$ films changed according to sulfurization temperature and Cu/(In+Ga) ratio. The sulfur content in the $CIGSe_2$ films increased with increasing the annealing temperature and Cu/(In+Ga) ratio. Also Cu migration toward the surface increased at higher temperature. Since high Cu concentration at the $CIGSe_2$ surface is detrimental role, it is necessary to reduce the S annealing temperature as low as $200^{\circ}C$. The cell performance was improved at $200^{\circ}C$ sulfurization.

There has been an increasing demand for high performance and energy-saving of blind. In order to develop the eco-friendly blind textiles, heat treatment process has been utilized for LM(Low Melting) polyester fabrics and the changes of the physical properties of the treated fabrics were examined according to temperature of heat treatment. Morphology, surface reflectance, contact angle, luster, thermal property and mechanical property of heat treated LM polyester fabrics were investigated. As results, morphology analysis of thermal treated fabrics confirmed that degree of fusion of LM polyester yarns improved with increase of temperature. Surface reflectance of thermal treated fabrics decreased with increase of temperature. Luster and contact angle of a water droplet on thermal treated fabrics increased slightly with increase of temperature. The mechanical properties of the fabrics by KES-FB system were found to be temperature-dependent and especially, bending and shear properties among them were highly related to temperature.
