We investigated the position controlling C60 fullerene encapsulated into a graphene-nanoribbon trench via classical molecular dynamics simulations. The graphene-nanoribbon trench can provide nanoscale empty spaces, and a C60 encapsulated therein can be considered as media for a nanoelectromechanical shuttle device. The classical molecular dynamics simulations presented here provide information on the potential application of a graphene-nanoribbon trench in a C60 shuttle device. Driving forces applied to C60 resulted in its motion toward the edges of the graphene-nanoribbon trench, the suction forces induced at both edges were balanced with the driving forces, and finally, the C60 fullerene gradually settled on the edges of the graphene-nanoribbon trench after several oscillations. The results of the present simulation suggest the importance of graphene-nanoribbon trenches encapsulating fullerenes in a wide range of applications in the field of nanotechnology.

기존의 그래핀 성장에 관한 연구는 열화학기상증착법(Chemical vapor deposition; CVD)을 이용한다. 그래핀 성장 제어 요소로는 촉매 기판인 전이 금속[Ru, Ir, Co, Re, Pt, Pd, Ni, Cu], 기판 전처리 과정, 수소/메탄 가스 혼합비, 작업 진공 상태, 기판온도[$800{\sim}1,000^{\circ}C$, 냉각 속도 등으로 보고 되고 있다. 그래핀 성장 원리는 Cu 촉매 기판에 메탄 가스를 $1,000^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 분해해서 탄소를 고용 시킨 후 급랭하는 도중에 석출되는 탄소에 의해 그래핀 시트가 형성되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 기존의 CVD를 열원을 이용할 경우 내부 챔버에 생기는 잠열에 의해 cooling profile의 제어가 용이하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 근적외선(Near Infrared; NIR) 열원을 이용한 CVD로 챔버 내부 잠열을 최소화하고, 냉각 공정을 Natural, Linear, Convex cooling type으로 디자인해서 cooling profile 제어가 그래핀 성장에 미치는 영향을 연구 하였다. 이렇게 성장된 그래핀을 임의의 기판(SiO2, Glass, PET film) 위에 습식방법으로 전이 시킨 후, 전기적 구조적 및 광학적 특성을 면저항(four-point probe), 전계방사 주사전자현미경(Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope; FE-SEM), 마이크로 라만 분광법(Micro Raman spectroscopy) 및 광학현미경(optical microscope), 투과도(UV/Vis spectrometer)의 측정으로 잠열이 최소화된 NIR-CVD에서 cooling profile에 따른 그래핀 성장을 평가하였다.

Optimization of the asymmetric trapezoidal fin with various upper lateral surface slope is made using a two-dimensional analytic method. For the fixed fin base height, the optimum heat loss, fin length and effectiveness are represented as inner fluid convection characteristic number, fin base thickness, fin base height, fin shape factor and ambient convection characteristic number. For this optimum procedure, the optimum heat loss is defined as 95% of the maximum heat loss from the fin. One of the results shows that optimum heat loss and effectiveness seems independent of the fin shape factor while optimum fin length decreases almost linearly as the fin shape factor increases.

A reversed trapezoidal fin with variable lateral surface slope is optimized using a two-dimensional analytic method. For a fin base boundary condition, convection from the inside fluid to the inside wall and conduction from the inside wall to the fin base are considered. Heat loss from the fin tip surface is not ignored. The maximum heat loss at the practical fin length, the corresponding optimum fin efficiency, fin length and fin base height are presented as a function of the fin inside and outside convection characteristic numbers. One of the results shows that the optimum fin shape becomes 'fatter and shorter' as the ratio of fin tip height to base height increases.

The effect of cutted pin in front of pin-fin array was analyzed for increasing the cooling performance of gas turbine blade. The numerical simulations were conducted to figure out the flow and thermal characteristics. The base case which is staggered pin-fin array, cut pin case 1 which has X₂/D_p=1.25 cut pin and cut pin case 2 which has X₃/D_p=1.75 cut pin were compared. The results showed that cut pin increases the strength of the horseshoe vortex which occurred at the leading edge of pin-fin array. Furthermore, the wake effect is reduced at the trailing edge of pin-fin array. As a result, the heat transfer distribution on the endwall increases. However, the friction factor increases owing to the installation of cut pin, but the thermal performance factor is increased maximum 23.8% in cut pin case 2. Therefore, installation of cut pin will be helpful for increasing the cooling performance of pin-fin array of gas turbine blade.

The behavior of combustion-induced internal flow of SRM equipped with fin-slot grain and submerged nozzle is very complex and diverse. Cold air-flow test for 2D and 3D scale models of SRM has been done in order to specify the visualization method to analyze particular internal flow patterns such as roll-torque inducing flow. Swirl flow induced by asymmetric vortical tube also has been visualized through employing various light source and recording directions.

The transient response of a three-dimensional straight fin of constant cross sectional area and perimeter with unequal top, bottom, left, right and tip surface convection coefficients is analyzed using separation variables and Laplace transforms when the fin base is subjected to a step change in temperature. The three-dimensional effects of fin dimensions and unequal fin surface convection coefficients on the fin performance which is expressed in terms of the heat flowrates through the fin base are investigated, and errors in one-dimensions and unequal fin surface coefficients. Typical results are represented in tabular and graphical forms.

The temperature distribution of an asymmetric trapezoidal fin with various upper lateral surface slopes is investigated by using the two-dimensional analytic method. For this asymmetric fin, convection from the inner fluid to the inner wall, conduction from the inner wall to the fin base and conduction through the fin base are considered simultaneously. The temperature profile with the variation of dimensionless fin length and height coordinates is shown. Also, the temperature variation at the bottom tip of the fin is presented as a function of the fin shape factor. Heat losses through the fin base and from each side are compared for variations in fin length. One of the results shows that temperature at the fin bottom tip decreases linearly as the fin shape factor increases.

A numerical and experimental flow visualization study of the louvered fin array, commonly used in a compact heat exchanger was performed. The flow structure which was obtained by using a finite difference method, was compared with an experimental result. The experimental flow visualization was performed by using a dye injection technique with 13:1 scale model. The effects of Reynolds number and fin geometries on flow structure and heat transfer were examined.
