Flash Method로서 열에 관련된 물리적인 성질(밀도, 정압비열 또는 열확산 계수등)을 측정할 수 있는데 이 방법을 이용하여 핵연료의 열화산 계수를 상온(300k)으로부터 고온(1400 K)까지 측정하였으며 정압비열은 시차열용량법 (Differential Scanning Calorimeter)에 의하여 상온에서부터 500k까지 측정하였고 열전도 계수는 열확산 계수, 정압비열 그리고 핵연료의 밀도로부터 계산하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 낮은 온도(500k 이하)에서는 불순물의 정도(Impurity Level)에 따라서 열전도 계수가 크게 달라지기 때문에 중요시되지만 높은 온도(1000k 이상)에서는 불순물의 정도에 따른 열전도 계수의 변화가 근소함으로 그의 존재유무가 비교적 중요시되지 않는 Dielectric Material의 보편적인 경향과 완전히 일치하였다. Gd$_2$O$_3$를 첨가한 다수의 $UO_2$ Sample들에 대한 열확산 계수를 상온에서 측정하여 비교함으로써 이것을 재확인하였다.

The temperature-dependent tribological properties of brake discs for a train were examined in this study. The discs were produced using heat-resistant alloy steel, which showed different thermal conductivity after the heat treatments. A commercial brake friction material was used to evaluate the friction effectiveness, and the friction tests were carried out using a 1/5 scale dynamometer under various initial braking temperature conditions. The results showed that the tribological property of the disc was strongly affected by the heat treatment schedule. At low temperatures (below $250^{\circ}C$), the friction coefficient increased as a function of disc temperature, indicating that frictional heat increased the adhesion between the disc and pad. In addition, fade was observed at high temperatures (above $250^{\circ}C$); it was pronounced in the case of the disc with low thermal conductivity. The different fade resistances observed in the discs with different heat treatment schedules appear to be influenced by microstructural changes such as carbide redistribution occurring during the heat treatments, which affected the thermal conductivity.

본 연구에서는 암석 열전도도 측정을 위해 많이 사용하고 있는 Laser flash method와 Divided-bar method의 장단점을 비교 분석하여 자체 제작한 Divided-bar apparatus의 적용 가능성을 분석하고자 하였다. Laser flash method는 비접촉식으로 아주 작은 시료(두께 3 mm 이하)에 적합하며, 높은 온도($25^{\circ}C{\sim}200^{\circ}C$)의 범위까지 비열, 열확산률, 열전도도 측정이 가능하다. 시료의 조건은 물질이 균등, 균일해야 한다. 반면 Divided-bar method는 주로 상온에서 열전도도만 측정할 수 있다. 밀도가 낮고 공극이 큰 12개의 암석 시료를 두 가지 방법으로 측정 분석해 보았다. Laser flash method로 측정한 결과, 암석 시료 표면의 공극 분포가 일정하지 않으며, 광물 조성이 균등, 균일하지 않아 표면에 laser pulse로 열을 가할 때 반사 및 산란작용의 영향으로 시료 전면과 반대면으로 측정했을 때의 열전도도 차이가 0.001~0.140 W/mK 범위, 표준편차 0.003~0.089 W/mK 범위로 나타났다. divided-bar apparatus의 경우, 비교적 두꺼운 암석 시료를 측정할 수 있어 암석 열전도도 대표성이 높고, 시료를 밀착하여 열전달을 하므로 전면과 반대면으로 측정했을 때의 열전도도 차이는 0.001~0.016 W/mK, 표준편차 0.001~0.034 W/mK 범위로 Laser flash method에 비해 비교적 안정된 값을 보인다.

In this study, to achieve good electrical conductivity of a charging terminal component in electric vehicles, we investigated the microstructure evolution of pure-Cu subjected to metal injection molding by controlling the sintering variables, such as temperature and time. Thus, three samples were sintered at temperatures ranging from 1000 ℃ to 1050 ℃ near to the melting temperature of 1085 ℃ for 1 and 10 h after thermal evaporation of binder at 730 ℃. Both procedures were made using a unified furnace under Ar+H₂ gas with high purity. The structural observation displayed that the grain size as well as the compactness (a reciprocal of porosity) increased simultaneously as temperature and time increased. This gave rise to high thermal conductivity of 90% IACS together with high density, which was mainly attributed to decrease in fractions of grain boundaries and micro-pores working as effective scattering center for electron movement.

Subsea pipelines are designed to transport mixtures of oil, gas, and their associated impurities from the wellhead that can have temperatures as high as $100^{\circ}C$, while the external temperature can be as low as $5^{\circ}C$. Heat can be lost from the subsea pipeline containing high-temperature fluid to the surrounding environment. It is important that the pipeline is designed to ensure that the heat loss is small enough to maintain flow and avoid the unwanted deposition of hydrate and wax, which occurs at a critical temperature of approximately $40^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it is essential to know the heat loss of subsea pipelines under various circumstances. This paper presents a comparison between numerical analyses and existing theoretical formulas for different backfills and burial depth.

YSZ (Yttria Stabilized Zirconia) is used as a thermal barrier coating material for gas turbines due to its low thermal conductivity and high fracture toughness. However, the operating temperature of the gas turbine is rising according to the market demand, and the problem that the coating layer of YSZ is peeled off due to the volume change due to the phase transformation at a high temperature of 1400℃ or higher is emerging. To solve this problem, various studies have been carried out to have phase stability, low thermal conductivity, and high fracture toughness in a high temperature environment of 1400℃ or higher by doping trivalent and tetravalent oxides to YSZ. In this study, the monoclinic phase formation behavior and crystallinity were comparatively analyzed according to the total doping amount of oxides by controlling the doping amounts of Sc₂O₃ and Gd₂O₃, which are trivalent oxides, and TiO₂, which are tetravalent oxides, in YSZ. Through comparative analysis of monoclinic phase formation and crystallinity, the thermal conductivity of the thermal barrier coating layer according to the amount of doping was predicted.

High-temperature thermal insulation materials challenge extensive oxide candidates such as porus $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, yttria-stabilized zirconia, and mullite, due to the needs of good mechanical, thermal, and chemical reliabilities at high temperatures simultaneously. Recently, porous rare earth (RE) silicates have been revealed to be excellent thermal insulators in harsh environments. These materials display attractive properties, including high porosity, moderately high compressive strength, low processing shrinkage (near-net-shaping), and very low thermal conductivity. The current critical challenge is to balance the excellent thermal insulation property (extremely high porosity) with their good mechanical properties, especially at high temperatures. Herein, we review the recent developments in processing techniques to achieve extremely high porosity and multiscale strengthening strategy, including solid solution strengthening and fiber reinforcement methods, for enhancing the mechanical properties of porous RE silicate ceramics. Highly porous RE silicates are highlighted as emerging high-temperature thermal insulators for extreme environments.

We have investigated thermal stability of the mechanical and thermal conductive properties of Cu/STS/Cu 3 layered clad metal lead frame material for a LED device package at different temperatures ranging from RT to $200^{\circ}C$. The fabricated Cu/STS/Cu clad metal has a good thermal stability for the mechanical tensile strength and thermal conductivity of the over 50 $Kg/mm^2$ to the $150^{\circ}C$ and 270 $W/m{\cdot}K$ to the $200^{\circ}C$, respectively. This clad metal lead frame material at a high temperature of $150^{\circ}C$ shows a reinforced mechanical tensile strength by 1.5 times to conventional pure copper lead frame materials and also a comparable thermal conductivity to typical copper alloy lead frame materials.

The major drawback of zirconia-based materials, in view of their applications as targets for minor actinide transmutation, is their poor thermal conductivity. The addition of MgO, which has high thermal conductivity, to zirconia-based materials is expected to improve their thermal conductivity. On these grounds, the present study aims at phase characterization and thermophysical property evaluation of neodymium-substituted zirconia (Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9; using Nd₂O₃ as a surrogate for Am₂O₃) and its composites with MgO. The composite was prepared by a solid-state reaction of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9 (synthesized by gel combustion) and commercial MgO powders at 1773 K. Phase characterization was carried out by X-ray diffraction and the microstructural investigation was performed using a scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The linear thermal expansion coefficient of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9 increases upon composite formation with MgO, which is attributed to a higher thermal expansivity of MgO. Similarly, specific heat also increases with the addition of MgO to Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9. Thermal conductivity was calculated from measured thermal diffusivity, temperature-dependent density and specific heat values. Thermal conductivity of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9-MgO (50 wt%) composite is more than that of typical UO₂ fuel, supporting the potential of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9-MgO composites as target materials for minor actinides transmutation.
