The Combustion gas behavior induced by fire in a building is numerically investigated. The typical building for this analysis is partially divided by a vertical baffle projecting from the ceiling. The solution procedure includes the low Reynolds number ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model for the turbulent flow and the discrete ordinates method is used for the calculation of radiative heat transfer equation. The effects of the location and size of fire source and baffle length on velocity and temperature distributions, species mass fraction and flame location are analyzed. As the results of this study, it is found that the case when the fire source is located at the vertical wall is more dangerous than at the bottom wall in view of the combustion products and flame location. It is also found that the radiation effect cannot be neglected in analyzing the building in fire.

This study was to evaluate the feasibility of recycling the solids separated from swine wastewater treatment process as a fuel source for heat production and to provide a data set on the gas emissions and combustion properties. Also, in this study, the heavy metals in ash content were analyzed for its possible use as a fertilizer. Proximate analysis of the solid recovered from the swine wastewater after flocculation with organic polymer showed high calorific (5,330.50 kcal/kg) and low moisture (15.38%) content, indicating that the solid separated from swine wastewater can be used as an alternative fuel source. CO and NOx emissions were found to increase with increasing temperature. Combustion efficiency of the solids was found to be stable (95 to 98%) with varied temperatures. Thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) showed five thermal effects (four exothermic and one endothermic), and these effects were distinguished in three stages, water evaporation, heterogeneous combustion of hydrocarbons and decomposition reaction. Based on the calorific value and combustion stability results, solid separated from swine manure can be used as an alternative source of fuel, however further research is still warranted regarding regulation of CO and NOx emissions. Furthermore, the heavy metal content in ash was below the legal limits required for its usage as fertilizer.

The system design of the Organic Rankine Cycle(ORC) is greatly influenced by the thermal properties such as the temperature or the thermal capacity of heat source. Typically waste heat, solar energy, geothermal energy, and so on are used as the heat source for the ORC. However, thermal energy supplying from these kinds of heat sources cannot be provided constantly. Hence, an experimental study was conducted to utilize fluctuating thermal energy efficiently. For this experiment, an impulse turbine and supersonic nozzles were applied and the supersonic nozzle was used to increase the velocity at the nozzle exit. In addition, these nozzles were used to adjust the mass flowrate depending on the amount of the supplied thermal energy. The experiment was conducted with maximum three nozzles due to the capacity of thermal energy. The experimented results were compared with the predicted results. The experiment showed that the useful output power could be producted from low-grade thermal energy as well as fluctuating thermal energy.

The development of new energy has attracted consideration attention due to the high oil price and environmental problems. In advanced country, they have tried to carry out a long range plan for energy. We need to develop new energy for Low Carbon Green Growth in Korea. The building is 30% among ratio of energy consumption in Korea. And in the past, heating energy was high ratio for energy using at home. But recently, the demand for cooling energy keeps growing due to rising average temperature on the earth and improvement of life quality. In this situation, the energy of lake water and ocean water has studied to utilize in advanced country because of low temperature at underwater. But the study for deep water is still a lot left to do. In this study, we analyzed district cooling system and the present condition. Analyzing the deep lake water cooling system in Toronto, we found an application of district cooling system using deep ocean water. Deep lake water uses heat source for district cooling and water source for city in Toronto. So reducing the initial cost, this city had economic effect. When DLWC was applied at existing building, the heat exchanger was installed instead of cooling tower and refrigerator. And the heat exchanger used to connect main pipe with cool water on city. System using deep ocean water can be applied as a similar way to supply cool water from lake to building.

Mathematical modeling and numerical calculation on the flow and thermal characteristics induced by fire in a partial enclosure are performed. The solution procedures include the Shvab-Zeldovich approximation for the physical transport equations, low Reynolds number k-.epsilon. model for the turbulent fluid flow and Discrete Ordinate method(DOM) to calculate the radiative heat transfer. PMMA(Polymethylmethacrylate) is adopted as a solid fuel. Two different cases are considered : combustions with and without gas radiation occuring in a open cavity for variable pyrolyzing location of PMMA. When the fire source is located at the left-wall, the flow region of flame gas is limited at the left-wall and ceiling and recirculation region of inlet gas is formulated at neat the floor. In case of neglecting the radiative heat transfer, more large flame size and higher temperature is predicted. It is essential to consider the radiative heat transfer for analysis of fire phenomenon.

Chemical heat pump is one of the energy conversion technologies, which enables to use waste heat as a source of high grade heat. In 2-propanol/acetone system, the dehydrogenation of 2-propanol is an endothermic(heat absorption) reaction, and can be used to generate hydrogen because 2-propanol can be converted to acetone and hydrogen at low temperature(about $8^{\circ}C$) using catalyst. For the dehydrogenation of 2-propanol 5% Ru catalyst based on activated carbon is the best one at the reaction temparature of $83^{\circ}C$.

본 연구에서는 발전용량이 20kW인 폐열회수용 칼리나 발전시스템의 설계 자료를 확보하기 위하여 EES프로그램을 사용하여 해석하였으며, 암모니아농도, 증기압력, 열원온도 및 냉각수온도가 발전효율에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구결과에서, 암모니아 농도는 낮을수록, 증기압력은 높을수록 발전효율은 증가하였다. 하지만 암모니아 농도가 너무 낮으면 발전효율이 감소하는 영역이 있었다. 터빈입구의 증기압력이 높아지면 발전효율도 높아지며, 암모니아 농도가 높을수록 증기압력의 영향을 더 많이 받는 것으로 나타났다. 최대의 발전효율을 얻기 위한 암모니아 농도, 증기압력, 열원온도 및 냉각수온도 조건이 존재한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 20kW의 발전시스템에서는 증기압력은 25bar, 열원온도는 $160^{\circ}C$, 냉각수온도가 $10^{\circ}C$일때 암모니아 농도가 0.4에서 발전효율은 최고로 15%까지 가능하였다.

For a conventional power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), there is a trade-off between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage. To overcome this trade-off, a super-junction trench MOSFET (TMOSFET) structure is suggested; within this structure, the ability to sense the temperature distribution of the TMOSFET is very important since heat is generated in the junction area, thus affecting its reliability. Generally, there are two types of temperature-sensing structures-diode and resistive. In this paper, a diode-type temperature-sensing structure for a TMOSFET is designed for a brushless direct current motor with on-resistance of $96m{\Omega}{\cdot}mm^2$. The temperature distribution for an ultra-low on-resistance power MOSFET has been analyzed for various bonding schemes. The multi-bonding and stripe bonding cases show a maximum temperature that is lower than that for the single-bonding case. It is shown that the metal resistance at the source area is non-negligible and should therefore be considered depending on the application for current driving capability.

본 연구에서는 기존 가정용연료전지에서 활용이 미약한 중저온의 배열을 건물난방부하에 적용할 수 있도록 온도 안정화 장치를 개발하였으며 이 장치가 기존 난방설비와 연계가 가능하도록 제어시스템을 구축하였다. 연료전지 시스템의 정상작동을 위해서는 연료전지로부터 배출되는 온수의 공급온도가 $60^{\circ}C$이어야 하고 다시 연료전지로 회수되는 작동 유체의 환수온도는 항상 $55^{\circ}C$로 유지하여야 한다. 본고에서는 먼저 스택배열 활용을 극대화하기 위해 CFD 분석을 통해 소형열교환기와 기존 난방설비배관과의 최적 연계장치시스템을 구성하였다. 또한 계절별 난방 수온의 불규칙한 온도변화에 대응하기 위해서 연료전지 스택의 열원과 아파트세대 난방용 환수관을 연결한 온도자동조절 밸브를 사용하여 온도안정화 장치를 개발하였다. 소형열교환기와 통합 활용할 수 있도록 설정된 온수의 온도가 편차 ${\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ 이내에서 유지되도록 하였다. 이 연구결과를 통해 연료전지인 PEMFC의 배열을 건물난방부하에 활용이 추후 가능할 것으로 예상된다.
