Ideal candidates for the thermal-protection system of advanced spacecraft like Space Shuttle, are FRCI(Fibrous Refractory Composite Insulation) and AETB(Alumina-Enhanced Thermal Barrier). In the present work, we carried out the mathematical modeling and computer simulation of the thermal response of FRCI to heat, pulse, comparing with that of silica. Also, we calculated the conductivity of FRCI as various variables at the temperature range of 100~2000 K.

Presence of eyelid on anterior ocular surface and its thermal effects play significant role in maintaining eye temperature. In most of the literatures of thermal modeling in human eye, the eyelid is not considered as an eye component. In this paper, finite element model is developed to investigate the thermal effects of eyelid closure and opening in human eye. Based on different properties and parameter values reported in literatures, the bio-heat transfer process is simulated and compared with experimental results in steady and transient state cases. The sensitivity analysis using various ambient temperatures, evaporation rates, blood temperatures and lens thermal conductivities is carried out. The temperature values so obtained in open eye show a good agreement with past results. The closure of eyelid is found to increase/decrease the eye temperature significantly than its opening, when the parameter values are considered to be at extreme.

Thermal spray technology has been used in many industrial application. Especially, thermal spray coating have been employed with the purposes of achieving better resistances in abrasion, heat and corrosion. In the previous studies on the thermal spray coating, thermal spray characteristics from the perspective of combustion engineering have not been investigated sufficiently, while the material characteristics of the coated substrates have been investigated widely. In this study, the effect of spray particles on the flame behavior was experimentally investigated. The amount of the injected particles was measured using the light scattering method and the temperature of the particles was estimated using a two-color method. Various flame-spray interactions were observed and it was found that the high temperature zone near the flame is elongated by particles density. Based on these results, the applicability of the light scattering method and the two-color method was discussed.

This paper describes the strategy of a daily optimal operational scheduling on cogeneration systems with each other generation mode. The cogeneration systems consists of three generators. auxiiiary devices which are three auxiliary boilers, two waste boilers and three sludge incinerators. One unit that using the back pressure turbin generates the electrical and the thermal energy. The other two units that using the extraction condensing turbine generate the energy. Auxiliary devices operate to supplement the thermal energy to the thermal load with three units. The cogeneration system has a large capacity which is able to supply enough the thermal energy to the thermal load, however the electric power generated is insufficient to satisfy the electrical load. Therefore the insufficient electric energy is supplemented by buying electrical energy from the utility. Simulation was carried out using optimization toolbox. The result reveals that the proposed modeling and strategy can be effectively applied to cogeneration systems with each other generation mode.

A thermo-elastic system in the production machine has highly nonlinear dynamic characteristics. In general, the finite element method is utilized for accurate analysis. However, it requires large computing time. Thus, thermo-elastic systems are usuallymodeled as electric and fluid system using lumped para,eter. In this paper. we propose the bondgraph model and transient simulation methodology of thermo-elastic system in consideration of various boundary and joint contact conditions. Consequently, the proposed method ensures a possibility of its on-line compensation about undesirable phenomena by using real time estimate process and electronic cooling device for thermal appropriate behavior. Thermo-elastic model consisting of bush and shaft including contact condition is presented.

The electrothermal characteristics of a high voltage LIGBT(Lateral Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) using thin silicon on insulator (SOI) and silicon on sapphire (SOS) such as thermal conductivity and sink is analyzed by MEDICI. The device simulations demonstrate that the thermal conductivity of the buried oxide is an important parameter for modeling of the thermal behavior of SOI devices. In this paper we simulated the thermal conductivity and temperature distribution of a SOI LIGBT with an insulator layer of SiO$_2$ and $Al_2$O$_3$ at before and after latch-up and verified that the SOI LIGBT with the $Al_2$O$_3$ insulator had good thermal conductivity and reliability.

A numerical and experimental study is made of thermal behavior of a hot chuck which is specially designed for flip-chip bonders. The hot chuck consists of radiant heat sources and a heated plate of very high conductivity, which is for achievement of high-speed heat-up. A simplified numerical model is developed to simulate unsteady thermal behavior of the heated plate. Parallel experimental work is also conducted for a prototype of the hot chuck. Based on the experimental data, the numerical model is tuned to improve the reliability and accuracy. Design analysis using the numerical model is conducted. The results of numerical computations illustrate that the radiant heater system adopted in this study satisfies the key design requirements for a high-performance hot chuck.

As more high power wide band gap devices are being utilized. the thermal management issues associated with these devices need to be resolved. High power small devices dissipate excessive heat that must be cooled, but traditional cooling methods are insufficient to provide such a cooling means. This paper will evaluate a micro-capillary pumped loop thermal management system that is incorporated into the shim of the device, taking advantage of phase-change to increase the thermal conductivity of the system. The results of the modeling of the thermal management system will be discussed.

This paper describes a 2D nonlinear finite element analysis (NLFEA) platform that combines heat flow analysis with realistic analysis of cracked reinforced concrete structures. The behavior models included in the structural analysis are mainly based on the Modified Compression Field Theory and the Distributed Stress Field Model. The heat flow analysis takes into account time-varying thermal loads and temperature-dependent material properties. The capability of 2D nonlinear transient thermal analysis is then implemented into a nonlinear finite element analysis program VecTor2(C) for 2D reinforced concrete membranes. Analyses of four numerical examples are performed using VecTor2, and results obtained indicate that the suggested nonlinear finite element analysis procedure is capable of modeling the complete response of a concrete structure to thermal and mechanical loads.
