Generally, MWCNT, with thermal, chemical and electrical superiority, is manufactured with CVD (chemical vapor deposition). Using MWCNT, it is comonly used as gas sensor of MOS-FET structure. In this study, in order to repeatedly detect gases, the author had to effectively eliminate gases absorbed in a MWCNT sensor. So as to eliminate gases absorbed in a MWCNT sensor, the sensor was applied heat of 423[K], and in order to observe how the applied heat was diffused within the sensor, the author interpreted the diffusion process of heat, using COMSOL interpretation program. In order to interpret the diffusion process of heat, the author progressed modeling with the structure of MWCNT gas sensor in 2-dimension, and defining heat transfer velocity($u={\Delta}T/{\Delta}x$), accorded to governing equation within the sensor, the author proposed heat transfer mechanism.

Analysis and experiment are performed to investigate the thermal performance of a heat pipe with axial grooves. The heat pipe was designed in a 6.5 mm I.D., 17 axial trapezoidal grooves. 1000 mm long tube of aluminium, and ammonia as working fluid. A mathematical equations fur heat pipe with axial grooves is formulated to obtain the capillary limitation on heat transport rate in a steady state. As a result, heat transport factor of heat pipe has the maximum at the operating temperature of 293K in 0m elevation. As the elevation of heat pipe increases. the heat transport factor of the heat pipe is reduced markedly, comparing with that of horizontal elevation of the heat pipe. It may be considered that such behavior of heat pipe is caused by the working fluid swarmed back to the condenser port due to gravity force and supercooled by a coolant of heat exchanger. Analytical results of heat transport factor are in a good agreement with those of experiment.

The north panel of a geostationary satellite is used as one of the main radiators, on which communication equipment or bus equipment are installed. The thermal control of panel is designed by using embedded heat pipes and surface heat pipes (or external heat pipes) to spread out heat dissipated from equipment all over the radiator evenly and finally to reject the heat to the space through the radiator efficiently. This panel is also divided by several areas based on the operating temperature and dissipation of equipment in order to increase heat rejection capability of radiator. The thermal analysis is carried out for the hot case, Winter Solsitce EOL (End Of Life), in order to validate thermal design of the panel utilized 6 surface heat pipes and 8 embedded heat pipes. The sensitivity studies for the heat pipe failure case and no heat pipe case are performed and compared to its normal state. The heat transport capability of heat pipe is also obtained from these calculations.

The TMSR-SF0 simulator is an integral effect thermal-hydraulic experimental system for the development of thorium molten salt reactor (TMSR) program in China. The simulator has two heat transport loops with liquid FLiNaK. In literature, the 95% level confidence uncertainties of the thermophysical properties of FLiNaK are recommended, and the uncertainties of density, heat capacity, thermal conductivity and viscosity are ±2%, ±10, ±10% and ±10% respectively. In order to investigate the effects of thermophysical properties uncertainties on the molten salt heat transport system, the uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of the heat transfer characteristics of the simulator system are carried out on a RELAP5 model. The uncertainties of thermophysical properties are incorporated in simulation model and the Monte Carlo sampling method is used to propagate the input uncertainties through the model. The simulation results indicate that the uncertainty propagated to core outlet temperature is about ±10 ℃ with a confidence level of 95% in a steady-state operation condition. The result should be noted in the design, operation and code validation of molten salt reactor. In addition, more experimental data is necessary for quantifying the uncertainty of thermophysical properties of molten salts.

구리분말 소결윅 히트파이프의 열수송 한계를 예측하는 이론적 해석을 수행하였다. 히트파이프의 직경은 8 mm이고 물을 작동유체로 사용하였다. 입자의 직경을 대표적인 5 가지로 분류하여 각각의 유효 모세관 반경($r_c$) 기공률($\varepsilon$), 투파율(K)을 토대로 작동온도와 윅 두에 그리고 경사각에 따른 모세관압력과 열수송 한계, 열저항을 분석하였다. 소결윅의 모세관한계는 입자 직경이 크고 윅 두께가 증가하며 작동온도가 높을수록 증가했다 기공률과 모세관 반경이 증가할수록 열수송 한계가 높아졌으며, 윅 두께가 증가함에 따라 열저항이 크게 상승하였다.

STREAM - a lattice transport calculation code with method of characteristics for the purpose of light water reactor analysis - has been developed by the Computational Reactor Physics and Experiment laboratory (CORE) of the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST). Recently, efforts have been taken to develop a photon module in STREAM to assess photon heating and the influence of gamma photon transport on power distributions, as only neutron transport was considered in previous STREAM versions. A multi-group photon library is produced for STREAM based on the ENDF/B-VII.1 library with the use of the library-processing code NJOY. The developed photon solver for the computation of 2D and 3D distributions of photon flux and energy deposition is based on the method of characteristics like the neutron solver. The photon library and photon module produced and implemented for STREAM are verified on VERA pin and assembly problems by comparison with the Monte Carlo code MCS - also developed at UNIST. A short analysis of the impact of photon transport during depletion and thermal hydraulics feedback is presented for a 2D core also from the VERA benchmark.

An artificial recharge test aimed at investigating transport characteristics of the injected water plume in a fractured rock aquifer was conducted. The test used an injection well for injecting tap water whose temperature and electrical conductivity were different from the groundwater. Temporal and depth-wise variation of temperature and electrical conductivity was monitored in both the injection well and a nearby observation well. A highly permeable fracture zone acting as the major pathway of groundwater flow was distinctively revealed in the monitoring data. A finite element subsurface flow and transport simulator (FEFLOW) was used to investigate sensitivity of the transport process to associated aquifer parameters. Simulated results showed that aperture thickness of the fracture and the hydraulic gradient of groundwater highly affected spatio-temporal variation of temperature and electrical conductivity of the injected water plume. The study suggests that artificial recharge of colder water in a fractured rock aquifer could create a thermal plume persistent over a long period of time depending on hydro-thermal properties of the aquifer as well as the amount of injected water.

Hydrodynamic Thermal Capilary Model developed previously has been modified to study the transport phenomena in the Czochralski process. Our analysis is focused on the heat transfer in the system, convection in the melt phase, and the meniscus and interface shape. Four major forces drive melt flow in the crucible, which include thermal buoyancy force in the melt, thermocapillary force along the curved meniscus, crucible rotation and crystal rotation. Individual flow mechanism due to each driving force has been examined to determine its interaction with the meniscus and interface shape. A nominal 4-inch-diameter silicon crystal growth process is chosen as a subject for analysis. Heater temperature profile for constant diameter crystal is also present as a function of crystal height or fraction solidified.

This simulator is developed for the analysis of a MOSFET based on Thermally Coupled Energy Transport Model(TCETM). The simulator has the ability to calculate not only stationary characteristics but also non - stationary characteristics of a MOSFET. It solves basic semiconductor devices equations including Possion equation, current continuity equations for electrons and holes, energy balance equation for electrons and heat flow equation, using finite difference method. The conventional semiconductor device simulation technique, based on the Drift-Diffusion Model (DDM), neglects the thermal and other energy-related properties of a miniaturized device. I, therefore, developed a simulator based on the Thermally Coupled Energy Transport Model (TCETM) which treats not only steady-state but also transient phenomena of such a small-size MOSFET. In particular, the present paper investigates the breakdown characteristics in transient conditions. As a result, we found that the breakdown voltage has been largely underestimated by the DDM in transient conditions.
