The dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) is used to solve the Graetz problem of laminar flow inside circular duct. In this method the domain integral tenn of boundary integral equation resulting from source term of governing equation is transformed into equivalent boundary-only integrals by using the radial basis interpolation function, and therefore complicate domain discretization procedure Is completely removed. Velocity profile is obtained by solving the momentum equation first and then, using this velocities as Input data, energy equation Is solved to get the temperature profile by advancing from duct entrance through the axial direction marching scheme. DRBEM solution is tested for the uniform temperature and heat flux boundary condition cases. Local Nusselt number, mixed mean temperature and temperature profile inside duct at each dimensionless axial location are obtained and compared with exact solutions for the accuracy test Solutions arc in good agreement at the entry region as well as fully developed region of circular duct, and their accuracy are verified from error analysis.

3-5 ${\mu}m$ 파장대의 중적외선 영상으로부터 정밀한 절대온도를 추정하기 위해서는 지표 복사율, 대기효과, 낮 영상의 경우 반사되는 태양빛에 대한 정보를 필요로 하며, 이는 온도 추정 시 오차를 발생시키는 주요 원인이 된다. 이 연구는 이를 해결하기 위해 상대적인 온도 차이를 추정하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 제안된 알고리즘의 기본 방향은 온도 추정을 위한 입력자료를 최소화 시키는 것이다. 이를 위해 인접한 지역에 위치한 두 대상물체가 받는 대기효과는 동일하다고 가정하였으며 MODTRAN 및 ASTER spectral library로부터 입력자료를 단순화 시키는 연구가 수행되었다. 시뮬레이션 연구 결과 제안된 상대온도추정알고리즘의 정밀도는 300 K의 온도에서 0.1의 지표 복사율 오차에 대해 2 K 이내의 비교적 높은 정밀도를 나타냈다. 그러나 낮 영상에서 저온인 경우에는 정밀도가 크게 감소하였다. 알고리즘의 검증을 위해 MODIS band 23 중적외선 낮 영상에 적용하였으며, 이를 MODIS LST 자료와 비교를 수행한 결과 $0.485{\pm}1.552$ K의 오차를 나타내었다. 이 결과로부터 제안된 알고리즘이 외부 입력자료를 필요로 하지 않고 단지 영상 만으로부터 비교적 높은 정밀도로 온도 추정이 가능함을 보였다. 그러나 제안된 알고리즘은 상대온도만을 알 수 있으며, 절대온도를 추정하기 위해서는 기준온도에 대한 정보가 필요하다는 한계점도 있다.

Boric acid is used as a coolant for pressurized-water reactors, and the degree of burnup is controlled by the concentration of boric acid. Therefore, accurate measurement of the concentration of boric acid is an important factor in reactor safety. An improved system was proposed for the accurate determination of boron concentration. A new boron-concentration measurement technique, called multisensitive detection, was developed to improve the measurement accuracy of boron meters. In previous studies, laboratory-scale experiments were performed based on different sensitivity detectors, confirming a 65% better accuracy than conventional single-detector boron meters. Based on these experimental results, an experimental system simulating the coolant-circulation environment in the reactor was constructed; accuracy analysis of the boron meter with a multisensitivity detector was performed at the actual coolant pressure and temperature. In this study, the boron concentration conversion equation was derived from the calibration test, and the accuracy of the boron concentration conversion equation was examined through a repeatability test. Through the experiment, it was confirmed that the accuracy was up to 87.5% higher than the conventional single-detector boron meter.

지형 굴곡이 심한 하와이 화산섬의 경우, 측후소 분포가 매우 제한적이어서 공식적인 기온 분포도가 작성되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 기온 지도화의 문제점을 해결하는 방법으로 위성기반의 지표온도 자료로부터 기온추정치를 추출하여 내삽법에 필요한 입력자료로 사용하였다. 추출된 온도값을 표본값으로하여 거리 역비례 가중치법(IDW)과 공동크리깅 (cokriging)을 적용하여 기온추정치를 지도화하였다. 기온과 고도값을 함께 이용한 cokriging이 IDW에 비해 크게 향상된 추정 오차값을 나타내었다. Cokriging은 주 변수와 고도와 같은 추가 변수 간의 상관관계가 유의하게 나타날 때 효과적으로 사용되는 내삽법이지만, 내삽 정확도는 계절적인 기상조건에 민감하게 영향받는 것으로 조사되었다. 강수량이 크게 증가하는 우기에는 건기에 비해 공간적인 기온변화가 크며, 이에 따라 기온 추정 오차값도 우기에 높게 나타났다.

Purpose: This study aimed at developing an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for predicting the amount of cooling energy consumption of the variable refrigerant flow (VRF) cooling system by the different set-points of the control variables, such as supply air temperature of air handling unit (AHU), condenser fluid temperature, condenser fluid pressure, and refrigerant evaporation temperature. Applying the predicted results for the different set-points, the control algorithm, which embedded the ANN model, will determine the most energy efficient control strategy. Method: The ANN model was developed and tested its prediction accuracy by using matrix laboratory (MATLAB) and its neural network toolbox. The field data sets were collected for the model training and performance evaluation. For completing the prediction model, three major steps were conducted - i) initial model development including input variable selection, ii) model optimization, and iii) performance evaluation. Result: Eight meaningful input variables were selected in the initial model development such as outdoor temperature, outdoor humidity, indoor temperature, cooling load of the previous cycle, supply air temperature of AHU, condenser fluid temperature, condenser fluid pressure, and refrigerant evaporation temperature. The initial model was optimized to have 2 hidden layers with 15 hidden neurons each, 0.3 learning rate, and 0.3 momentum. The optimized model proved its prediction accuracy with stable prediction results.

A poled lead zirconate titanate (PZT) cube specimen that is switched by an electric field at room temperature is subject to temperature increase. Changes in polarization and thermal expansion coefficients are measured during temperature rise. The measured data are analyzed to obtain changes in pyroelectric coefficient and strain during temperature change. Empirical formulae are developed using linear or quadratic curve fitting to the data. The nonlinear behavior of the materials during temperature increase is predicted using the developed formulae. It is shown that the calculation results can be compared successfully with the measured values, which proves the accuracy and reliability of the developed formulae for the nonlinear behavior of the materials during temperature changes.

The paper presents the wireless wind chill temperature measurement system that is composed of IEEE 802.15.4 standard wireless communication devices, hot film anemometer and serial communication temperature sensor. It's sometimes very difficult for a person, who lives in a high-rise apartment, to see the outside wind chill temperature due to harsh outside weather. The wind chill temperature is calibrated from an air velocity and air temperature. IEEE 802.15.4 standard wireless communication is ZigBee compatible, and consumes low power in communication. Under the air temperature of 5 $^{\circ}C$ and air velocity ranging from 0 to 50 km/h, the experimental result of wind chill temperature shows good accuracy within 5%.

Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) operates at high temperatures in range of 600-800℃. Since layers of SOFC are composed of different substances, different thermal expansion in SOFC can result in defects under high temperature conditions. For understanding relation between temperature field and the thermal deformation in SOFC, temperature and strain field were simultaneously estimated using thermographic phosphors by optical measurement. Temperature fields were obtained by the life-time method, and the temperature differences of one specimen was checked with thermocouple. The thermal deformation was estimated by digital image correlation (DIC) method with extracted phosphorescence images. To investigate the deformation accuracy of DIC measurement, thermographic phosphors were coated with and without grid pattern on aluminum surface. Simultaneous measurement of temperature fields and thermal deformation were carried out for YSZ. This study will be helpful to multi-sensing of temperature field and thermal deformation on SOFC cells.

This study presents a real-time method that uses Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (LAS) to measure exhaust gas temperatures in turbulent flow fields. It was possible to measure temperature by passing a laser beam through the exhaust gas in a grid pattern, and obtain a temperature distribution image through time series analysis at 0.1 second intervals. Temperature image resolution has been improved with CT reconstruction algorithms. Estimating maximum temperature values and locations enabled 2D temperature analysis, surpassing single-point methods like thermocouples. The accuracy of LAS measurements was evaluated by comparison with thermocouple measurements. This approach will contribute to automotive technology and environmental protection by providing reliable temperature data for interpreting turbulent temperature distributions.

$^{3}$He melting curve thermometer is made, tested, and compared with Greywall scale. The experimental results show that we can identify the temperature within a few percentage. To improve the accuracy of our thermometer we need temperature fixed points like $^{3}$He superfluid phase transition temperature.
