The anisotropic phonon conductions with varying Joule heating rate of the silicon film in Silicon-on-Insulator devices are examined using the electron-phonon interaction model. It is found that the phonon heat transfer rate at each boundary of Si-layer has a strong dependence on the heating power rate. And the phonon flow decreases when the temperature gradient has a sharp change within extremely short length scales such as phonon mean free path. Thus the heat generated in the hot spot region is removed primarily by heat conduction through Si-layer at the higher Joule heating level and the phonon nonlocality is mainly attributed to lower group velocity phonons as remarkably dissimilar to the case of electrons in laser heated plasmas. To validate these observations the modified phonon nonlocal model considering complete phonon dispersion relations is introduced as a correct form of the conventional theory. We also reveal that the relation between the phonon heat deposition time from the hot spot region and the relaxation time in Si-layer can be used to estimate the intrinsic thermal resistance in the parallel heat flow direction as Joule heating level varies.

Spiral microwave antennas have been developed and measured the thermal distribution in agar phantom. The design has been configured in three types, 3 cm $\phi$ applicator with 24.5 cm length (A type),4 cm $\phi$ with 12.2 cm (B type) and 6 cm $\phi$ with 24.5 cm length (C type). The relative specific absorption rate (SAR) measured in phantom have been used to estimate the depth and profile of effective heating. The applicator of copper antenna with 4 cm $\phi$ diameter and 12.2 cm length (B type) has the most homogeneous (FWHM=3.5 cm) and heating into deep site ($D_{eff}=4\;cm$).

The objective of this study was to examine numerically the heat transfer and flow characteristics of the heat pipe with a wick using the simplified heat transfer model to enhance the cooling effects of high heat flux devices and minimizing the energy consumption for electric vehicles. The heat pipe with a wick was analyzed using commercial software with COMSOL and water was used as the working fluid. The velocity and temperature characteristics of the heat pipe were simulated numerically along the heat pipe and the local and average Nusselt numbers were calculated. As a result, the driving force occurred because of the temperature difference between the hot side and the cold side. The heat transfer of the heat pipe occurred from the hot side to the cold side and increased toward the center position. In addition, the average Nusselt numbers were 1.88 for the hot side and 0.1 for the cold side, and the maximum Nusselt number was 4.47 for the hot side and 0.7 for the cold side.

본 연구에서는 치과에서 마취 시 환자들의 고통을 최소화 하기위하여 무통마취를 위한 치과용 약물주입기를 구현하였다. 약물의 주입 시 통증을 최소화하기 위해서 온도를 $36{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ 범위로 제어하여 체온과 유사한 온도로 유지하였다. 이를 위하여 필름히터 방식을 이용한 치과범용국소약물(36mg, 2% 리도카인) 앰플 가열부를 설계하였다. 또한 약물이 주입되는 양을 능동적으로 제어하기 위하여 약물주입 환부의 환자별 흡수 속도 차이에 차등 주입을 위한 압력 측정 시스템을 구현하였다. 필름 형태의 압력 센서를 통하여 전달 압력을 측정하였으며 측정된 압력을 바탕으로 능동적으로 모터의 동작을 제어함으로써 약물주입시 환자의 고통을 최소화 할 수 있도록 구현하고자 하였다.

원적외선의 이용은 에너지절약을 목적으로한 효율이 높은 열전파형태로서 주로 응용되고 있다. 따라서 방사체의 적외선 방사특성과 피가열체의 적외선 흡수특성과의 관계가 먼저 명확하게 규명되어야 한다. 그러면, 그 흡수특성과 정합된 원적외선 방사세라믹스의 제작도 가능하게 되어갈 것이므로 원적외선의 작용효과가 각종 분야에서 이용되어 갈 것이다. 예를들면 의료분야에서 과거에는 인체의 일부를 가온할 필요가 있을 때에는 고주파전류, 마이크로파 또는 환부를 유동 파라핀속에 넣어 환부를 따뜻하게 하는 방법 등이 있지만 만약 어떤파장의 원적외선이 인체의 피부 깊숙이 투과가 가능하다면 마이크로파 방생장치 대신에 원적외선의 발생장치가 값이 저렴하고 기온부를 국소로 제한 할 수 있으므로 널리 사용되어질 것이다. 또 식품분야에서는 에너지절약의 관점에서 뿐만아니라 조리의 관점에서도 원적외선의 이용이 진전되어 갈 것으로 생각된다. 한편 원적외선센서의 진전은 놀랄만하여 앞으로 초전도세라믹스를 이용한 원적외선 검출의 죠셉슨센서는 더욱 진전되어 질것으로 생각된다. 어떻든 각종 원적외선방사 세라믹스의 개발과 원적외선 영역에서의 파장 특성에 대한 측정법이 확립되어짐에 따라서 원적외선 이용은 앞으로 각종방면에 진전되어질 것이다.

As a technique for removing cancerous tumors from normal tissue, radio-frequency electromagnetic waves were employed to heating target cells up to the critical temperature, which kills the cancerous cells. However, its use in treating tumors in soft organs is limited by inconvenient factors, which are use of high-currents and long time operation. In this work, the feasibility of the localized heating by inserting four conducting electrodes with tiny direct current is investigated. The heat source is resulting from the electric field as known as resistive heating. We have investigated the temperature distribution as a function of applying DC voltages ranging from 10 V to 30 V with 10 V step. From the simulation results, the mushroom-like lesion shape by applying 20 V is generated by four electrodes within a few minutes, that is proper to the clinical application.

We investigated the cell growth rate according to the change of temperature of the Thermo-rod used for the local hyperthermia therapy. For this study, we fabricated the Thermo-rods (TR) using Duplex Stainless Steels having magnetic properties as well as non magnetic properties. To evaluate cell growth rates up to 15 days, we conducted cell proliferation test using cell counting methods. For the tests, the CAPEs and Osteoblats were seeded on the 6-we11 plates with the induction heated thermo-rods 30 mins a day for 15 days with 2 days interval and without induction heated thermo-rods as control group respectively. We calculated cell growth rates, 6 hours after heating. From the results, in case of CAPEs and Osteobalsts seeded groups, the cell growth rates in all groups increased drastically for 6 days after seeding, but decreased irregularly after 6 days. In conclusion, the cell growth rates showed no significant difference among all groups and it indicated that there were no effects of temperate ($41^{\circ}C$) on cell growth rates.

A numerical method is presented which can solve the steady flow and heat transfer from a rotating and heated circular cylinder in a uniform flow for a range of Reynolds number form 5 to 100. The steady response of the flow and heat transfer is simulated for various spin parameter. The effects on the flow field and heat transfer characteristics known as lift, drag and heat transfer coefficient are analyzed and the streamlines, velocity vectors, vorticity, temperature distributions around it were scrutinized numerically. As spin parameter increases the region of separation vortex becomes smaller than upper one and the lower region will vanish. The lift force, a large part is due to the pressure force, increases as the Reynolds number and it increases linearly as spin parameter increases. The pressure coefficient changes rapidly with spin parameter on the lower surface of the cylinder and the vorticity is sensitive to the spin parameter near separation region. As spin parameter increases the maximum heat coefficient and the thin thermal layer on front region are moved to direction of rotation. However, with balance between the local increase and decrease, the overal heat transfer coefficient is almost unaffected by rotation.

There have been numerous experimental studies for heat transfer measurement technique. This study investigates optical methods for measuring local heat transfer coefficient using thermochromic liquid crystal. Transient and steady methods have been utilized to measure local heat transfer coefficient on a cylinder with a cross flow. The steady method is based on the heat-coating technique and two transient methods adopt by-pass technique and insertion technique, respectively. Both techniques of transient method employ heating technique in which the flow is heated by using the electric heater and cooling technique which cools the preheated cylinder. Experimental results indicate that each methods have nearly similar results. Detailed discussions have been made for its own advantages and disadvantages.

The ray effects of finite volume method (FVM) or discrete ordinate method (DOM) are known to show a non-physical oscillation in solution of radiative heat transfer on a boundary. This wiggling behavior is caused by the finite discretization of the continuous control angle. This article proposes a combined procedure of the Monte-Carlo and finite-volume method (CMCFVM) for solving radiative heat transfer in absorbing, emitting, and an-isotropically scattering medium with an isolated boundary heat source. To tackle the problem, which is especially pronounced in a medium with an isolated heat source, the CMCFVM is suggested here and successfully applied to a two-dimensional circular geometry.
