With the span and arch rib size of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) arch bridges increase, the hydration heat of pumped mass concrete inside large-size steel tube causes a significant temperature variation, leading to a risk of thermal stress-induced cracking during construction. In order to tackle this phenomenon, a hydration heat conduction model based on hydration degree was established through a nonlinear temperature analysis incorporating an exothermic hydration process to obtain the temperature field of large-size CFST. Subsequently, based on the evolution of elastic modulus based on hydration degree and early-age creep rectification, the finite element model (FEM) model and analytical study were respectively adopted to investigate the variation of the thermal stress of CFST during hydration heat release, and reasonable agreement between the results of two methods is found. Finally, a comparative study of the thermal stress with and without considering early-age creep was conducted.

To realize a zero-energy building, a technology that minimizes the energy loss due to thermal bridges by preventing their formation is emerging as an important design factor. In this study, we develop a thermal bridge breaker to prevent thermal bridging in a metal panel roof and attempt to analyze the effects of its application. To this end, we fabricated a thermal bridge breaker and analyzed it in terms of its strength and heat-transfer characteristics, in addition to conducting a load simulation. The thermal bridge prevention effect of the developed thermal bridge breaker improved the insulation performance of the metal panel roof, and the results of a cooling/heating peak load simulation performed by applying the heat transmission resistance test results to a building proved the existence of this effect.

Abutments in Kumdang bridge are massive concrete structures of which total height is l0m, length is 30m, and width is 7m. Therefore, there is every probability that early age thermal cracking such as hydration heat occur. We measure heat of hydration, strains of rebar, and stresses of concrete abutment during construction. Using analysis of measuring data, we examine thermal stresses, and make use of results as method which control thermal cracking. Finally, we develope thermal stress analysis program which have pre/post processor to be easy of accessing and the usefulness of that is estimated through comparison of results.

Measuring the velocity of fluid flow, semiconductor flow sensors are widely used in the various fields of engineering and science such as the semiconductor manufacturing processes and electronic control engines for automobiles. In the near future, this type of sensors will replace present hot wire type sensors or other type flow sensor due to its low price, easy handling and small size. To develop the advanced semiconductor flow sensor, it is necessary to obtain characteristics of the flow and the heat transfer around the sensor in advance. In the present study, the theoretical analysis including mathematical modeling and numerical calculation to predict the characteristics of heat transfer and flow field around the sensor was carried out. The main parameters for optimum design of the flow sensor are the free stream velocity, the heat generation rate of silicon arm and the distance between arms. Effects of these parameters on flow and heat transfer around the sensor and the temperature difference between arms are examined.

In massive hardening concrete structures, early age thermal cracking due to the heat of hydration may occur. There are many massive structures in Incheon bridge project and they have to be carefully treated to prevent thermal cracking. In this paper, an example of analyzed and measured results of hydration heat of pile caps in the Incheon bridge project was represented. Finite element simulations were carried out before casting and curing method was determined using the analyzed result. Sensors were installed before casting and temperature and strain of concrete was measured during curing. Gathered data were compared with the analyzed data and selected control method to prevent cracking was verified. Analyzed result gave good agreement and very few cracking could be found.

본 논문은 전해액에 의해 양전극 사이에 형성되는 브리지가 트래킹에 미치는 영향을 기술하고 있다. IEC(International Electrotechnical Commission) 60589의 방법으로 만들어진 1, 3, 5[wt%] NaCl 용액을 이용하여 KS C IEC 60112의 전극에서 트래킹 실험을 하였다. 트래킹 진전과정 중에서 브리지가 형성되었을 때의 전압, 전류, 저항 및 열화상을 측정하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 전해액의 전도율이 커짐에 따라 브리지에서 발생되는 줄열도 커졌다. 하지만 전해액의 기화열로 인해 전해액의 끓는점을 넘지는 못했다. 다만, 전해액의 전도율이 커짐에 따라 건조대 형성에 소요되는 시간이 짧아졌다. 따라서 다음 적하까지 보다 긴 시간동안 건조대를 유지함으로써, 방전 기회가 증가하기 때문에 트래킹 진전이 빨라짐을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze losses because of switching devices and the secondary side circuit diodes of 500 W full bridge dc-dc converter by applying gallium nitride (GaN) field-effect transistor (FET), which is one of the wide band gap devices. For the detailed device analysis, we translate the specific resistance relation caused by the GaN FET material property into algebraic expression, and investigate the influence of the GaN FET structure and characteristic on efficiency and system specifications. In addition, we mathematically compare the diode rectifier circuit loss, which is a full bridge dc-dc converter secondary side circuit, with the synchronous rectifier circuit loss using silicon metal-oxide semiconductor (Si MOSFET) or GaN FET, which produce the full bridge dc-dc converter analytical value validity to derive the final efficiency and loss. We also design the heat sink based on the mathematically derived loss value, and suggest the heat sink size by purpose and the heat divergence degree through simulation.

The purpose of this study was to analyze factors influencing insulation performance of inorganic Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete(ALC) sandwich wall panels with the application of shear connectors. To analyze the effect of shear connectors on the thermal performance of sandwich wall panels, heat transfer analysis was conducted by using the three-dimensional heat transfer simulation software. Four types of shear connector such as Pin, Clip, Grid, and Truss were selected for insulation performance analysis. Thermal bridge coefficient was calculated by varying typical panel thickness and shear connector thickness and materials such as steel, aluminum, and stainless steel. The results showed that Grid and Truss type widely distributed along the section of sandwich wall panel had a great influence on the thermal bridge coefficient by changing the influence factors. Based on the results of thermal and structural performance analysis, effective heat transmission coefficient of the sandwich wall panel satisfying the passive house insulation criteria was calculated. As a result, it was found that heat transmission coefficient was increased from $0.132W/m^2{\cdot}K$ to $0.141{\sim}0.306W/m^2{\cdot}K$ depending on the shear connector types and materials. In the majority of cases, the passive house insulation criteria was not satisfied after using shear connectors. The results of this study were likely to vary according to how influence factors were set, but it is important to apply the methods that reduce the thermal bridge when there would be a possibility of greatly affecting the insulation performance.

In this study, the construction of a reinforced concrete bridge pier was analyzed from durability point of view. The goal of the study is to analyze the crack iniation condition due to construction and present some recommendations for construction conditions of the reinforced concrete bridge pier. The bridge is located at the western port area of Shenzhen, where the climate is high temperature and humidity. To control the cracking of concrete, a construction simulation was carried out for a heat transfer problem as well as a thermal stress problem. A shrinkage model for heat produced due to cement hydration and a Burger constitutive model to simulate the creep effect are used. The modelling based on Femmasse(C) is verified by comparing with the testing results of a real underground abutment. For the bridge pier, the temperature and stress distribution, as well as their evolution with time are shown. To simulate the construction condition, four initial concrete temperatures ($5^{\circ}C$, $10^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$) and three demoulding time tips (48h, 72h, 96h) are investigated. From the results, it is concluded that a high initial concrete temperature could result in a high extreme internal temperature, which causes the early peak temperature and the larger principle stresses. The demoulding time seems to be less important for the chosen study cases. Currently used 72 hours in the construction practice may be a reasonable choice.
