We analyze heat generation as well as temperature distribution induced by accelerated electron impact on a target in a closed x-ray tube. For the sake of accuracy, we use Monte carlo analysis. This method gives accurate energy deposit in a medium with additional information such as secondary and backscattered electron as well as their paths. A Tungsten coated layer is divided by small rectangular cell which accumulate energy loss of primary electron beam. The cells and their accumulated energy datum are used for the input of finite element analysis. The Maximum temperature rising and temperature distribution were analyzed by transient heat analysis. Some temperature parameters such as target size and coating thickness were varied to investigate temperature sensitivity. Temperatures were compared each other to find primary variable that affect temperature rising on the x-ray target. The results will be helpful in development highresolution x-ray tube and related industries.

The concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) that has an excellent performance can be more economically used when the steel tube has a large width-to-thickness ratio. However, the international provisions such as American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) limit the use of a slender plate in CFT members, resulting in a less optimal use of CFT. This study verifies the post buckling strength of CFT columns through the experimental program for Hollow Steel Sections (HSS) and CFTs with a with-to-thickness ratio ranged 60 to 100. The study also proposes a relaxed limitations of with-to-thickness ratio compared to the one specified in the current standards.

As an innovative effort to secure economically viable heat recovery system, various fin shapes for industrial fin-tube heat exchangers have been studied for better performance. In this study, the waste gas heat recovery from four different fin shapes was experimentally performed for heat transfer rate and pressure drop. According to the tested results, the twist and wavy shape fins of rectangular type show the superior performance in terms of Goodness factor and jH/f factor ratio, whereas the circular spiral fin shows the inferior values. Experimental results shows good comparison with the numerical results with a slight discrepancy of 5%, which is quite resonable.

As a method to measure the absorbing characteristics of microwave absorber, the various microwave measuring method can be used fundamentally. There is, however, a big problem in measuring errors, since the wavelength of microwave such as used for radar is very short. Therefore, this research aimed to design and fabricate a converting adaptor of 20mm .PHI. coaxial tube from a Type - N connector to $20mm\phi$ coaxial tube and to use it for evaluating absorption characteristics of microwave absorber. Furthermore, the measurements of absorbing characteristics and material constants have been performed and reviewed, which were carried out by using the coaxial tube and by using rectangular waveguide, res- pectively. As a result, the validity of the proposed measuring method has been confirmed.

Continuing efforts to achieve increased circuit performance in electronic package have resulted in higher power density at chip and module level. As a result, the thermal management of electronic package has been important in maintaining or improving the reliability of the component. An experimental investigation of thermosyphonic boiling in vertical tube and channel made by two parallel rectangular plates was carried out in this study for possible application of the direct immersion cooling. Fluorinert FC-72 as a working fluid was used in this experiment. Asymmetric heated channel of open periphery with gap size of 1, 2, 4 and 26mm and uniformly heated vertical tubes with diameter of 9, 15 and 20mm were boiled at saturated condition. The boiling curves from tested surfaces exhibited the boiling hysteresis. It was also found that the gap size is not a significant parameter for the thermosyphonic boiling heat transfer with this Fluorinert. Rather pool boiling characteristics appeared for larger gap size and tube diameter. The heat transfer coefficients measured were also compared with the calculation results by Chens correlation.

The concrete-filled tube (CFT) column has the excellent structural performance. But it is difficult to connect with column and beam because of closed section. Its Solution, 2 members of ㄷchennel in which Internal diaphragm is installed were welded beforehand and the method of making Rectangular Steel Tube was proposed. According to upside and downside junction shape, Internal diaphragm suggested as symmetric specimen and asymmetric specimen. The upper and lower diaphragm of the Symmetric specimen used the same horizontal and The upper diaphragm of the Asymmetric specimen used the horizontal plate and the lower diaphragm used the vertically plate. In this research, 4 T-shape column to beam steps connections were tested with cyclic loading experiment in order to evaluate the structural capability of the offered connection. Symmetric specimens be a failure in 0.03rad from beam flange. And Asymmetric specimens be a failure in 0.05rad from column interface. The comparison results of All specimens shown similar to energy absorption capacity in 0.02rad.

Buildings become high and large. CFT(Concrete Filled steel Tube) columns have been developed to manage effectively that loads which columns support and cross sections of columns are increased. Because CFT column is the composite structure made of two different materials, many researches have been performed to look into mechanical behaviors. This study is an analytic study about bond stress on interface between concrete core and steel tube in circular and rectangular CFT columns. ABAQUS/Standard Version 5.8 is used to analyze bond stress by bond form and position of shear-connector, and improved analystic method about mechanical characters on interface is suggested.

In this study, the investigations on the dimpled type Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler have been focused on the high heat exchanger efficiency. To overcome low heat exchanger efficiency of general EGR cooler, the dimpled type EGR cooler was developed. It was ensured the improvement of the performance of the dimpled type EGR cooler related to the heat exchange based on a series of the experiment. These results were caused by the increase of thermal surface area in accordance with the dimple's one. The estimation model of the heat exchanger efficiency using the Effectiveness-NTU method was also developed in order to verify the validity of experimental result. Also, the program for the estimation of the heat exchanger efficiency on the EGR cooler with regard to the dimpled tube shape was developed. Resultantly, it was confirmed that the dimpled type EGR cooler could be served better performance than the conventional one in view of the heat exchanger efficiency.

Push-out tests have been conducted on 18 rectangular concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns with the aim of studying the bond behaviour between the steel tube and the concrete infill. The obtained load-slip response and the distribution of the interface bond stress along the member length and around the cross-section for various load levels, as derived from measured axial strain gradients in the steel tube, are reported. Concrete compressive strength, interface length, cross-sectional dimensions and different interface conditions were varied to assess their effect on the ultimate bond stress. The test results indicate that lubricating the steel-concrete interface always had a significant adverse effect on the interface bond strength. Among the other variables considered, concrete compressive strength and cross-section size were found to have a pronounced effect on the bond strength of non-lubricated specimens for the range of cross-section geometries considered, which is not reflected in the European structural design code for composite structures, EN 1994-1-1 (2004). Finally, based on nonlinear regression of the test data generated in the present study, supplemented by additional data obtained from the literature, an empirical equation has been proposed for predicting the average ultimate bond strength for SHS and RHS filled with normal strength concrete.

This experimental study has been conducted to scrutinize the effects of an ultrasonic standing wave (USW) on the propagating velocity and structure of methane/air premixed flame. Propagating flame was caught by high-speed Schlieren photography, and the variation of flame-behavior was analyzed in detail. It is revealed that horizontal splitting in burnt zone is resulted by the USW, and the flame propagation velocity is augmented due to the strengthened chemical reaction. Evolutionary feature of the flame perturbed by USW, maintaining a pseudo-symmetry of top and bottom flame-front about the propagation axis tends to be free from buoyancy effect.
