최근 고유가 시대에 따른 대체 에너지기술 분야에 대한 관심과 함께 저전력 소비형 전자기기의 동력원으로서 열전발전기술이 주목받고 있다. 열전발전 기술을 이용하여 산업폐열원 등에서 전력을 생산하기 위해서는 폐열원의 열적 분포특성이 우선적으로 검토, 평가되어야 한다. 그 이유는 일반적 산업폐열원의 경우 발전소자가 설치될 열원에서의 열 분포가 실험실 조건에서와 같이 일정면적에서의 균일 열량조건을 만족시키기는 어렵고 국부적 불균일 열 분포를 나타낼 가능성이 매우 높기 때문으로, 이같은 불균일 열원특성은 열전모듈의 직렬연결을 기본으로 하고 있는 열전 발전시스템의 발전능에 직접적 영향을 미치게 되기 때문이다. 따라서 불균일 열원특성에 따른 열전 발전능의 평가는 열전발전기 전체의 발전능을 평가하는 매우 중요한 인자이다. 본 연구에서는 Bi-Te계 열전발전모듈을 이용하여 열편차 조건에서의 열분포 특성 및 열전달 특성변화를 조사하고 이것에 따른 단위발전소자의 발전특성 변화를 규명 하고자 하였다.

The heat transfer, pressure loss, and thermal performance in a cooling channel were evaluated for various new fan-shaped pin-fin geometries using three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The turbulence was modeled using the low-Reynolds-number SST turbulence model in the Reynolds number range of 5,000-100,000. The numerical results for the area-averaged Nusselt numbers were validated by comparing them with the experimental data under the same conditions. A parametric study for three types of fan-shaped pin-fin geometries was performed with two parameters, namely, the leading and trailing reduction angles.

In this study, a high performance Bubble Jet Loop Heat Pipe (BJLHP) was developed using the enhanced nucleate boiling surfaces in an evaporating section. A sintered tube and GEWA-T(Wieland) tube were used enhance nucleate boiling. The thermal performance of these BJLHP was compared with the conventional smooth tube BJLHP with an effective thermal conductivity. This experiment was conducted under the following conditions : working fluid, charging ratio and input power of R-141b, 50%vol., 75W and 100W, respectively. As a result, the effective thermal conductivity of BJLHP with a sintered tube in the evaporating section was 300% higher than the smooth tube BJLHP.

The design and control of thermal flow is important for the operation of high-power laser diodes (LDs). It is necessary to analyze and improve the thermal bottleneck near the active layer of an LD. As the error in prediction of the thermal resistance of an LD is large, typically due to the hyperbolic increase and saturation to linear increase of the thermal resistance as a function of thickness, it is helpful to use a simple, modified divergence model for the improvement and optimization of thermal resistance. The characteristics of LDs are described quite well, in that the values for simulated thermal resistance curves and the thermal cross section followed are almost the same as the values from the model function. Also, the thermal-cross-section curve obtained by differentiating the thermal resistance is good for identifying thermal bottlenecks intuitively, and is also fitted quite well by the model proposed for both a typical LD structure and an improved LD with thin capping and high thermal conductivity.

Temperature dependences of electronic and thermal transport properties of narrow band gap thermoelectric materials are dependent on the transport behavior of minority carriers as well as majority carriers. Thus, weighted mobility ratio, which is defined the ratio of weighted mobility for majority carriers to that for minority carriers, must be one of the important parameters to enhance the performance of thermoelectric materials. Herein, we provided a practical guide for the development of high-performance Bi-Te-based thermoelectric materials based on the weighted mobility ratio control by considering theoretical backgrounds related to the electronic transport phenomena in semiconductors.

For performance improvement and compactness, usage of enhanced tube is inevitable. However, studies on enhanced tubes for generator is very limited. In this study, pool boiling tests were conducted for 7 heat transfer tubes. Test range covered pressure 7.38~101.3 kPa and heat flux $20{\sim}40kW/m^2$. Results show that boiling heat transfer coefficient increases as pressure or heat flux increases. Under atmospheric condition, high heat transfer coefficients were obtained for notched fin and low fin tubes(225% and 202% of the 19.0 mm smooth tube, which yielded the lowest heat transfer coefficient). As pressure decreased, high heat transfer coefficients were obtained for a low fin tube(290% and 288% of the 19.0 mm smooth tube at 12.34 and 7.38 kPa).

This study aimed to enhance the thermal conductivity of B₄C/Al composite materials, commonly used in transport/storage containers for spent nuclear fuel, by incorporating both boron carbide (B₄C) and cubic boron nitride(cBN) as reinforcing agents in an aluminum (Al) matrix. The composite materials were successfully manufactured through a stir casting process and practical neutron-absorbing materials were obtained by rolling the fabricated composite ingot. The evaluation of the thermal conductivity of the fabricated composites was carried out because thermal conductivity is critical for neutron absorbing materials. The thermal conductivity measurement results indicated an approximately 3% increase in thermal conductivity under the same volume fraction when compared to composite materials using only B₄C particles. Through neutron absorption cross-sectional area calculations, it was confirmed that the neutron absorption capability decreased to a negligible level. Based on the findings of this study, new design approaches for neutron absorption materials are proposed, contributing to the development of high-performance transport/storage containers.
