Screw in injection molding machine is affected by heat flux, pressure on inside barrel, geometry of screw including flight number, pitch and flight angle. Volumetric efficiency increases as the flight number increases, but it didn't show steady tendency according to helix angle of flight. Heat flux from heating pad and injection pressure play a very important role on the thermal behavior characteristics. The increased number of multi-flight is merits and demerits for a screw efficiency. So, we have to optimize flight number of the screw considering temperature, displacement, distortion and stress of the screw.

A thermal mass air flow sensor (MAFS), which consists of a micro-heater and thermo-resistive sensors on the silicon-nitride ($Si_3N_4$) thin membrane structure, is micro-fabricated by MEMS processes. Two thermo-resistive temperature sensors are located at $100{\mu}m$ upstream and downstream from the micro-heater respectively. The thermal characteristics are measured to find the best measurement indicator. The micro-heater is operated under constant power condition, and four flow indicators are investigated. The normalized temperature indicator shows good physical meaning and is easy to use in practice. It is found that the configurations and heating power of thermal-resistive elements are the dominant factors to determine the range of the flow measurement in the MAFS with higher sensitivity and accuracy.

Micronization of sensor is a trend of the silicon sensor development with regard to a piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor the size of the pressure sensor diaphragm have become smaller year by year and a microaccelerometer with a size less than 200-300${\mu}m$ has been realized. In this paper we study some of the micromachining processes of SOI(silicon on insulator)for the microaccelerometer and their subsequent processes which might affect thermal loads. The finite element method(FEM) has been a standard numerical modeling technique extensively utilized in structural engineering discipline for design of SOI wafers. Successful thermal behaviors analysis and design of the SOI wafers based on the tunneling current concept using SOI wafer depend on the knowledge abut normal mechanical properties of the SCS(single crystal silicon)layer and their control through manufacturing process

This paper proposes the state-space model of the thermal behavior of the spindle system to establish dynamic mathematical model of thermal characteristics in machine tool spindle system. the model is derived form physical law of heat transfer and thermoelasticity and represents the thermal behavior induced by uneven thermal expansions whitin a bearing. The model, which is sucessfully validated for two typical configurations of high speed spindle assembles, provides a tool for understanding the basis mechanics of induced thermal expansion as a function of initial preload, spindle speed and housing cooling conditions.

Continuous casting machine has been experienced a rapid development to increase productivity with high casting speed and to meet consumer's strict demands for high quality. However, because most of defects and cracks are initially formed in mold and grown into surface cracks during the post process, more specific and clear investigations upon heat transfer mechanism between mold and solidified shell are necessarily needed. In this study heat transfer coefficients which shows the characteristic of heat transfer mechanism are calculated with temperatures measured in bloom mold using optimal algorithm, and thermal analysis are investigated using the calculated heat transfer coefficients. Finally uniformity of solidified shell is investigated for high carbon steel, 0.187%C from thermal analysis.

Recently, motor integrated spindle is often used in a high speed spindle system of machine tools in order to increase machining speed. The important problem in high speed motor integrated spindle is to reduce thermal effect occured by motor and ball bearings. In this study, the effect of heat transfer from motor is investigated. The experimental equipment is composed with oil-air lubrication method, air cooling system and angular contact ball bearings. The results show that the thermal effect in motor is larger than in ball bearing until DmN 8000,000 with air cooling.

In this study, the theoretical equation of thermal storage efficiency was established to applied long term hot water storage system. The, effective thermal diffusivity and storage efficiency were, measured through the experiment to predict the degree of mixture in thermal storage tank. The effective thermal diffusivity was inversely preportional to the storage efficiency. The most effective storage efficiency was obtained under condition of low flow rate and using the perforated distributor.

This paper presents the thermal behaviours of a solid type disk brake for a high-speed train. The thermal behaviours of a brake disk with 50mm thickness shows good performance compared with 45mm thickness of a disk because of a high specific heat capacity and thermal expansion ratio. The FEM results show that the thickness of the d!sk with a same weight of the brake disk should be increased for a good flexibility of the contact thermal problems. Therefore, the ratio between the pad and disk in diameter may be reduced and the thickness of a disk increased.

In the various industry such as shipbuilding and automobile, etc., Al-alloys are used to reduce weight and improve economical efficiency, and they are mainly utilized in the process of Friction Stir Welding (FSW). A number of studies have been carried out on the metallurgical characteristics of friction stir welding In Al-alloys. However, research on the thermal behavior of FSW by using numerical analysis is not sufficient in the domestic and abroad. In this paper, therefore, numerical simulation was used to find out thermal behaviour of FSW by finite element method. We considered heat source that occurred by friction between tool shoulder including pin and base metal. To confirm the result of simulation, macrostructure is examined and compared after welding. The result of numerical simulation shows that Al-alloy is welded under a melting point of Al around pin by FSW.

This paper presents the contact thermal behaviors of mechanical seals depending on the contacting face geometry. Using the finite element analysis, the temperature distribution, thermal distortion and leakage have been analyzed as functions of sealing gap and rotating speed of the seal ring shaft. The FE results indicate that the inclined contacting face may be more effective and stable based on the results of thermal characteristic analysis if the seal ring has been designed with a same thermal capacity between conventional rectangular sealing faces and inclined seating surface of seal rings.
