This study aims to evaluate theoretically heat transfer characteristics and heat flux performance in ondol system of dried type is composed of panel of ceramics to improve of thermal conductivity and fin to expand heat. To this end, we analyzed effect of design factors(temperature of hot water, set temperature of room and thermal conductivity of finishing materials) in ondol system of dried type by heat transfer analysis. The main results of this study are summarized as follows; The deviation of heat flux and temperature was reduced by heat expansion from fin decreasing heat loss generated in air layer. The temperature and heat flux in upper finishing materials surface linearly increased according to temperature increment of hot water, but the temperature distribution in upper surface was assessed uneven. The greater heat resistance value of upper finishing materials, the deviation of maximum temperature and minimum temperature was decreased. Also, we suggested a basic design data about ondol system of dried type through an analysis of simulation results on heat transfer characteristics and heat flux performance.

In the LED lighting applications, because LED packages are the origin of heat generation, there are thermal design problem on heat sinks. In the thermal design, it is important to consider the total volume and the total weight of heat sink simultaneously. In this study, an Al 6063 heat sink was optimized using Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) simulation tool for the cooling of 30W LED module, and then the cooling performance and the total weight of heat sinks with Al 6063 and Thermal Conductive Polycarbonate(TCP) were compared under the same conditions. As the result of simulation, an Al 6063 heat sink was optimized with 22 ea. of fins and 1.6 mm of fin thickness. LED Junction Temperature of the TCP Heat Sink was $5.6^{\circ}C$ higher, but total weight of it was 47 % less than the Al 6063.

A common approach to achieve better thermal comfort with hydronic radiant floor heating system is supply water temperature control. This is the control method through which supply water temperature is varied with outdoor temperature. In this study, a comprehensive, yet simple calculation method to find optimum supply water temperature is evaluated by combining heat loss from the building and heat emission from the hydronic radiant floor heating system. And then the control performance of suggested calculation method is confirmed through experiment. It is shown that indoor air temperature is stably maintained around the set point.

Along with global environmental issues, the size of the electric vehicle market has recently skyrocketed. Various efforts have been made to extend mileage, one of the biggest problems of the electric vehicles, and development of batteries with high energy densities has led to exponential growth in mileage and performance. However, proper thermal management is essential because these high-performance batteries are affected by continuous heat generation and can cause fires due to thermal runaway phenomena. Therefore, thermal management of the battery is studied through the optimal design of the guide vanes, while utilizing the existing battery casing to ensure the safety of the electric vehicles. A battery from T-company, one of a manufacturer of the electric vehicles, was used for the research, and the commercial CFD software, ANSYS CFX V20.2, was used for analysis. The guide vanes were derived through optimal design based on a genetic algorithm with flow analysis. The optimized guide vanes show improved heat removal performance.

본 연구는 히트싱크의 효율적인 설계를 위하여 히트싱크 휜의 형상을 변화시켜 냉각성능에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 휜의 형상을 Vertical, Round, S-Curve, Triangle의 네 가지와 휜의 개수를 16개와 64개로 설계해, 총 8가지로 설계 및 해석 하였다. 이와 같이 설계된 히트싱크는 Fluent 6.3.26 으로 수치해석 하였고, 해석 결과 약간의 형상을 변경하는 것 보다는 휜의 개수를 늘리는 것이 냉각성능을 높이는데 더 효과적인 것으로 드러났다. 히트싱크의 온도분포와 열전달계수에 대한 수치해석을 통해 휜의 개수가 64개이고 S-Curve의 형태에서 냉각성능이 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

A Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) is an electric control device to interrupt the abnormal currents which result from the over-loads or short-circuits. Its malfunction will result in severe accidents. In the development of the MCCB, higher current-rating and improved thermal performance become more and more important in providing the safe function and reliability for the modern devices requiring small scale and high performance. It is also very important to consider the factors of temperature rise in the design of MCCB. The major reasons of temperature rise in the MCCB result from the resistances, which are come from the connection and contact surfaces. These resistances are influenced by current, time, configuration of contact surfaces and applied voltage. In order to predict the temperature distribution inside MCCB, we have simulated the model with some assumptions and simplifications, using commercial code ICEPAK. To verify the results of temperature field analysis, the numerical results are compared with experimental ones for the same model. The results show a good agreement with actual temperature rise obtained by experiments.

The ventilation effect of a ventilation system, which is classified as the forced ventilation and natural ventilation, is predominantly dependent on the combination of air supply and discharge. Perhaps the simplest ventilation is merely supplying the air as it is. However, to improve the indoor working environment during the summer, an air supply that is cooled to some extent has been widely adopted. Recently, a cooling method utilizing the vaporization of water was introduced. In this study, the performance of an evaporation-type air supply unit that was produced by Japan K-company and was installed in a shoe-manufacturing plant in Busan was investigated. The purpose of the experiment was to measure how much the supplied air could be cooled. From this experimental study, we confirmed that the evaporation-type air supply system is efficient, capable of improving the working environment during the summer while minimizing the energy cost.
