For the recovery of industrial waste heat, a chemical heat transformer based on the reversible reaction between metal chlorides and ammonia gas was designed and a pilot scale unit of 1 kW-1hr was developed. A static calculation, which determined the amount of reacting materials and operating condition of system, and dynamic simulations were performed for the optimal design. The temperature and output power of generator in the system were varying with the amount of salt and heat exchange area. Optimum conditions such as the amount of salt-graphite, apparent density and size of mechanical unit were determined by the dynamic simulation for the system. According to the operating cycle of 4 stages, experimental results of temperature and output power were well agreed with the simulation values. This chemical heat transformer is turned out to be a very promising system for recovery of industrial waste heat because of its effective feature of lifting temperature.

In this study, the thermal shrinkage and expansion stresses of filled NR and SBR vulcanizates were measured to investigate the dimensional stability at an elevated temperature. When a rubber sample was held at constant pre-strain, a thermal stress developed upon heating due to the entropic consideration. The peak shrinkage stress of carbon black or silica filled NR decreased with increasing filler content. In SBR compounds, however, the peak shrinkage stress of SBR with 30 phr filler content was higher than that of unfilled compounds. The expansion stress of carbon black filled NR was changed little, but that of filled SBR increased with increasing the filler content. The peak expansion stress of silica filled NR and SBR vulcanizates increased with increasing silica content.

This study was focused on the measurement of thermal expansion coefficients for GRP pipe through strain gage circuits. First of all, thermal expansion coefficients of aluminum beam were measured to examine the validity of the suggested method by using various types of strain gage circuits. Thermal expansion coefficients of GRP pipes along axial and hoop directions were measured to investigate the effect of the location of strain gages, number of repeated measurements, and strain gage types with different thermal expansion coefficients on the thermal strains and the repeatability of measured results. According to the results, thermal expansion coefficients of GRP pipes along hoop direction were lower than those along axial direction due to the constraint effect of reinforced glass fibers on thermal strains along hoop direction. As measurements were repeated, thermal expansion coefficients of GRP pipes were slightly increased, but the degree of increase became smaller. Finally, the same thermal expansion coefficients were obtained irrespective of different types of strain gages with different thermal expansion coefficients if thermal strains of strain gages were compensated by using reference compensation specimen.

The flash lamp annealing (FLA) process has been considered highly promising for manufacturing low-temperature polysilicon on large-scale backplanes. Based on a theoretical estimation, this study clarifies the critical mechanisms of glass backplane deformation during the FLA process. A simulation using a commercial FEM code with viscoelastic models shows that the local region, whose temperature is larger than the glass softening point, undergoes permanent structural shrinkage owing to stress relaxation. For larger backplanes (4th Gen), structural shrinkages and gravitational deflection are critical to deformation in the FLA process, resulting in an "M" shape; in smaller backplanes (0th Gen), the latter is negligible, resulting in a "U" shape.

대부분의 가공기 혹은 측정기에 있어 이송테이블은 그 기능수행의 기본을 담당하고 있으며 이송테이블의 운동 정밀도와 고속화는 목표하는 정밀도와 생산성으로 직결된다. 종래에는 형상특성, 열변형 등의 계통 오차만을 오프라인(Off-line)으로 측정하고 소프트웨어적으로 보상하는 방법을 사용하였으나 초정밀 분야에서 요구되는 테이블의 운동정밀도는 기계적 강성한계를 넘는 정밀도이므로, 테이블 이송 시 발생하는 운동오차를 실시간으로 측정하고, 보상할 수 있는 온라인(On-line)개념의 능동형 보상이 필요하다. (중략)

본 연구에서는 유한요소 해석 상용 소프트웨어 중 하나인 ABAQUS 을 이용하여 기존의 ABAQUS 가 고려하지 못했던 상변태와 변태소성을 고려하는 프로그램을 개발하고 이를 이용하여 실제 용접 공정 해석을 수행하였다. 열원의 크기와 분포, 속도, 이동 경로 등을 모사하기 위해서 DFLUX 를,복합상에서의 재료의 열팽창 계수와 열변형률을 정의하기 위해서 UEXPAN 을 코딩하였다. 또한 재료의 상분율 및 온도에 따른 열적 구성 거동을 정의하기 위해서 UMATHT를 상변태와 그에 따른 변태소성을 반영하여 응력을 갱신하는 UMAT을 구현하였다. User Subroutine UMAT 은 아탄성 수식화와 합분해를 이용하여 증분형(Rate-form)으로 응력을 갱신하며 아탄성 수식화를 이용하여 상변태와 변태소성이 고려된 대응접선 계수가 새롭게 정의되었다. 프로그램의 타당성과 정확성을 검증하기 위해서 이미 그 정확성이 입증된 GFC(General Finite-element Code)를 사용하였다.

In this study, vanadium dioxide ($VO_2$) powder well known as a thermochromic material was prepared from $V_2O_5$ powder and oxalic acid dihydrate by hydrothermal and calcination process at various conditions. The chemical bonding and crystal structures in addition to thermal property of samples were determined using FE-SEM, XRD, XPS, and DSC. Also, spectroscopic and thermochromic properties of film samples were analyzed by UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy after the thin film was prepared from the sol dispersed with the size of below 50 nm by the ball-milling of powder sample. With increasing the calcination temperature, the phase transition temperature of samples increased from $40^{\circ}C$ to $70^{\circ}C$ due to the increase of particle size.

We have investigated the temperature dependence of CO gas sensitivity for ZnO and ZnO-CuO thick films at 200 ppm CO gas, where those films were prepared by thermal transformation. The ZnO thick film shows the maximum sensitivity of -4 at >$300^{\circ}C$ On the other hand, ZnO-CuO(more than 1mol%) thick film shows that the maximum sensitivity reduced to less than 1.5. The decrease in sensitivity of CO gas with increasing the CuO contents is due to the decrease of the oxygen absorption in thick films.

Orbicular granite gneisses occur as a xenolith within two-mica leucogranites, together with early Paleoproterozoic metasedimentary xenoliths, in Wangjeong-ri, Muju area. The whole-rock chemistries and SHRIMP zircon Pb/U ages of the leucogranites indicate that they are S-type granitoids formed in the continental tectonic setting at $1875{\pm}75$ Ma. The SHRIMP age of monazites from the orbicular granite gneiss gives $1867{\pm}4$ Ma as a metamorphic age which is similar to the intrusion age of the two-mica leucogranite within the error range. The similar ages between zircons and monazites represent that the orbicular granite gneisses formed by metamorphism during the intrusion of the two-mica leucogranite; the metasedimetary xenoliths which sank within the parent magma of leucogranites were metamorphosed into orbicular granite gneisses by thermal metamorphism ($650-740^{\circ}C$, 4-6.5 kbar) due to the heat supplied from surrounding magma. During the thermal metamorphism, the core of orbicular granite gneiss mainly consisting of cordierite formed, and in some orbicular granitic gneisses, the leucocratic melt formed by melting of quartz and plagioclase in the core, squeezed out from core and crystallized around the core forming outer rim. The hydrothermal fluid at the late stage of magma differentiation penetrated into the orbicular granite gneisses resulting pinitization of cordierite into chlorite and sericite. As Muju orbicula granite gneiss was formed from sedimentary rocks, it is more appropriate to be called Muju orbicula granitic gneiss.
