The effects of alloy elements and cooling rate on the solidification path and the formation behavior of $\beta$ phase in Fe-containing Al-Si alloys were studied based on the thermodynamic analysis and the pertinent experiments. The thermodynamic calculation was systematically performed by using Thermo-Calc program. For the thermodynamic analysis in high alloy region of Al-Si-Fe ternary system, a thermodynamic database for Thermo-Calc was correctly updated and revised by the collected up-to-date references. For the thermodynamic-based prediction of various solidification paths in Fe-containing Al-Si system, liquidus projection of Al-Si-Fe ternary system, including isotherms, invariant, monovariant, bivariant reactions and equilibrium temperatures, was calculated and analyzed as functions of composition and temperature. The calculated results were compared to the experimental results using various casting specimens. In order to analyze various solidification sequences as functions of Si and Fe content, 4 representative alloy compositions, low Fe content in both low and high Si contents and high Fe content again in both low and high Si contents, were designed in this study. For better understanding of the influence of cooling rate on the formation behavior of $\beta$ phase, 4 alloys were solidified under furnace and rapidly cooled conditions. Cooling curves of solidified alloys were recorded by thermal analysis. Various important solidification events were evaluated using the first derivative-cooling curves. Microstructures of the casting samples were studied by the combined analysis of optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

When emergency core cooling system (ECCS) is operated during loss of coolant accident (LOCA) in a pressurized water reactor (PWR), pressurized thermal shock (PTS) phenomenon can occur as cooling water is injected into a cold leg, mixed with hot primary coolant, and then entrained into a reactor vessel. Insufficient flow mixing may cause temperature stratification and steam condensation. In addition, flow vibration may cause thermal stresses in surrounding structures. This will reduce the life of the reactor vessel. Due to the importance of PTS phenomenon, in this study, calculation was performed for Test 1 among six types of OECD/NEA ROSA tests with ANSYS CFX R.17. Predicted results were then compared to measured data. Additionally, because temperature difference between the hot coolant at the inlet of the cold leg and the cold cooling water at the inlet of the ECCS injection line is 200 K or more, buoyancy force due to density difference might have significant effect on thermal-hydraulic characteristics of flow. Therefore, in this study, the necessity to include buoyancy force term in governing equations for accurate prediction of single phase thermal stratification in both cold legs and downcomer by ECCS injection was numerically studied.

열연 판재 제조과정에서는 제품의 강도와 인성을 제어하기 위해 압연 직후 $800^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온 소재를 수냉각 방식으로 급속 냉각시킨다. 이 과정에는 소재 표면과 냉각수 사이의 비등 열전달 현상과 소재 표면에 쌓이는 체류수의 자유표면 유동, 소재의 고속 주행 등 매우 복잡한 물리현상들을 포함하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이 모든 물리 현상들을 수치적으로 모델링한 해석 모델을 적용하여 기본 열전달 해석을 수행한다. 실제로 소재는 냉각에 의해 내부에서 오스테나이트로부터 페라이트로 상변태가 일어나고 이로 인해 소재의 국부적인 열물성치의 변화가 발생하지만 본 연구에서는 상변태를 직접 푸는 방법 대신 이미 알려진 소재의 온도에 따른 물성변화 곡선을 이용하여 냉각해석을 수행하고 이를 기존의 일정 물성치 조건에서 해석한 결과와 비교하여 소재의 물성변화가 소재 냉각에 미치는 영향과 상변태 해석의 필요성에 대해 검토하였다.

In the present study the effect of cooling rate during solidification on the microstructural characteristics of Al-xAg (x = 31, 33, 35 at.%) in-situ binary eutectic composites has been investigated. To provide a wide range of cooling rate three different casting techniques, i.e. conventional casting, injection casting, and melt spinning have been used. The observed microstructure is very much dependent on the cooling rate. The fcc ${\alpha}$-Al and hcp $Ag_2Al$ phases exhibits an orientation of (111)Al//(0001)$Ag_2Al$, [1-10]Al//[11- 20]$Ag_2Al$. The microstructure of the melt-spun samples contains Widmanstatten structure resulting from solid-state transformation and nano scale two-phase structure resulting from solid-state phase separation. The microstructure of injection-cast samples contains eutectic structure and solid state phase-separated structure. On the other hand, conventional-cast samples exhibit a microstructure consisted of plate-type eutectic structure.

This study was undertaken to observe the formation behavior of ferro- magnetic phase in Mn-Al-Cu Alloys. The alloy selected for this investigation was 70% Mn-29% Al-1% Cu. This pre-allyed pig was prepared to the cylinderical castings using an Induction furnace after homogenizing at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 2hr, the specimens were cooled by cooling methods. Subwequent isothermal heat treatments were followed at $550^{\circ}C$ for various periods of time at predetermined(1-1000min). The formation behavior of ferromagnetic phase was investigated by measurements of magnetic properties of the specimens at each stage of heat treatment, and optical microscopic esamination and X-Ray diffraction analyses were also employed. By this basic experimental results, the conclusions are as follows 1) In order to obtain much amount of ferromagnetic phase, the optimum average cooling rate was about 7.35-$16.4^{\circ}C$/sec($1100^{\circ}C$-$600^{\circ}C$). 2) We verified the decomposition of {\tau} phase to {\beta} -Mn and {\gamma} , as the specimens were homogenized at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 12hr, then heat-treased at $550^{\circ}C$ for 1-1000min. 3) A condition of optimum heat treatments in Mn-Al-Cu permanent mag-netic alloys showed that after homogenizing at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 2hr, the speciments were cooled in air or furnace(A) and subsequent heat treatments at $550^{\circ}C$ for 1-30min. The maximum magnetic properties were measured as follows: Air cooling; Br=1200(Gause), bHc=100(oe), (BH)max=0.07(MGOe) Furnace cooling(A);Br=950(Gauss), bhe=80(Oe), (BH)max=0.05(MGOe)

비정량적 조성을 가진 비정질 산화타이타늄 박막을 반응성 스퍼터링으로 제조한후, $500^{\circ}C$~$600^{\circ}C$에서 10분-3시간 열처리후 냉각속도를 달리하였을 때의 상변태과정을 고찰하였다. 10분-30분정도의 단기간의 열처리후 급냉한 경우에는 Mageneli상이 관찰되어 비정상정 상($TiO_{2-x}$)이 산화되는 속도가 결정화속도보다 훨씬 느린 것으로 생각되었다. 그러나 열처리 유지시간이 증가하면 $500^{\circ}C$에서 부터의 느린 냉각과정에서는 Magneil가 anatase로 변화하며 변태한 anatase는 저온에서는 rutile로 변화하지 않았으나 $500^{\circ}C$~$300{\circ}C$의 온도 구간을 비교적 빠르게 냉각하면 Matneli상은 직접 rutile상으로 변화할 수 있는 것으로 고찰되었다. 또한 $600^{\circ}C$에서 냉각시에도 rutile상이 형성됨으로서 rutile상은 $500^{\circ}C$이상의 고온에서도 이 상ㅇ르 거치지 않고 변태할 수 있는 것으로 분석된다. 결정화 및 산화과정은 부피의 변화를 야기하여 박막의 표면 형상의 변화도 가져옴이 관찰되었다.

초음속 유동과 2상 유동이 공존하는 화염유도로 내 유동해석을 위한 사전 해석검증의 일환으로, 초음속 단상 노즐 플룸의 2차원 축대칭 해석과 물 분사가 포함된 3차원 2상 아음속 유동을 해석하였다. 단상초음속 노즐 플룸의 경우 충격파 셀 구조를 통해 물리적으로 위배되는 현상은 발견되지 않았다. 물분사가 포함된 3차원 2상 아음속 유동의 경우, 액적의 거동과 기화 과정을 정성적으로 볼 수 있었으며 물 분사시 고온공기의 냉각 모사가 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 이들 기초 검증 결과들은 추후 초음속 2상 물분사 플룸 유동에 적용되어 3차원 화염유도로 해석에 응용될 예정이다.

An elastic-plasticity model during the austenitic decomposition was derived and implemented to incorporate the two important deformation behaviors observed during the phase transformations: the volumetric strain and transformation induced plasticity due to the temperature change and phase transformation. To obtain transformed phase volume fractions during cooling, the fourth order Runge-Kutta method was used to solve the Kirkaldy's phase kinetics model which is function of temperature, austenitic grain size and chemical composition. The volumetric strain was calculated by considering the densities of constituent phases, while the transformation induced plasticity was based on the micro-plasticity due to the volume mismatch between soft austenitic phase and other harder phases. The constitutive equations were implemented into the implicit finite element software and a simple boundary value problem was chosen as a model problem to validate the effect of transformation plasticity on the deformation behavior of steel under cooling from high temperature. It was preliminary concluded that the transformation plasticity plays a critical role in relaxing the developed stress during forming and thus reducing the magnitude of springback.

The freezing characteristics of two kinds of phase change materials (PCM) encapsulated in a spherical container were investigated with various cooling air temperatures and velocities. The super cooling and solidification time of PCM were highly affected by cooling air temperature and velocity. The experimental equations are derived to express total solidification time of the PCM in terms of Nusselt number and dimensionless temperature.

The cooling effect of a mobile phone using PCM(Phase Change Material) module has been numerically investigated. A transient three-dimensional numerical analysis of heat and fluid flow with natural convection is performed in this study. Governing conservation equations for mass, momentum and energy are solved by an implicit finite volume method. An enthalpy-porosity technique has been used for modeling of the melting process. Two different ways of placing the PCM module are considered. One is to place a PCM module between the substrate and battery pack, and the other is to place a PCM module between MCM(multichip module) and battery pack. Three different types of PCMs are used to predict the performance of PCM. The results show that passive cooling with PCM can reduce the temperature rise and the effect of natural convection in PCM module considered in this study is negligible.
