Compared with Newtonial fluids, magnetic fluids have effects on magnetic force. In this study, the purpose is to research the heat transfer characteristic of magnetic fluids which have metalic and fluid characteristics as the external pipe is being cooled and internal pipe is heated. This study found the experimental results from the study of the variety of natural convection for magnetic fluids and the characteristics of the heat transfer by using numerical analysis according to the strength and direction of the magnetic fields from being imposed from the outside. Natural convection of magnetic fluids was controlled by the impressed magnetic fields, and the result of mean nusselt number was calculated. If the impressed magnetic field is in the direction of gravity or the strength of impressed magnetic field is more than -14 mT in the opposite direction, the heat transfer is more than that without the impressed magnetic field. If the strength of impressed magnetic field is less than -14 mT in the opposite direction, it is smaller than that without the impressed magnetic field. Especially, when the strength of the magnetic field is -14 mT, the heat transfer was at the minimum.

Focusing effect of a metallic layer in a severe accident depending on the aspect ratios and cooling conditions of top plate and side wall was investigated. Experiments were carried out for Rayleigh numbers and aspect ratio in the range of $8.49{\times}10^7{\sim}5.43{\times}10^9$, 0.135~0.541 respectively. In order to achieve high Rayleigh numbers, the heat transfer experiments were replaced by mass transfer experiments based on the heat and mass transfer analogy. A sulfuric acid-copper sulfate ($H_2SO4-CuSO_4$) electroplating system was adopted as the mass transfer system. The experimental results agreed well with the Rayleigh-Benard natural convection correlations of Dropkin and Somerscales and Globe and Dropkin. When compared with the standard Rayleigh-Benard problem, the cooling by the side wall is even higher than the top. For a shorter height, the interaction between the heated and cooled plumes increases due to decrease of the height. Thus, the heat transfer increases.

세계 어디에서나 에너지의 수요가 급속히 증가하고 있는 반면, 인류가 사용 가능한 에너지 자원은 그 한계가 보이고 있다. 더욱이지구 온난화 현상이 표면화되어 있는 현 시점에서 인류의 사회활동은 환경문제와 밀접하게 연관되어져서 생각해야 한다는 것이 지구라는 close system 에서는 명확하다. 한정된 에너지 자원을 유용하게 사용하여 인류 미래의 삶을 보다 윤택하게 유지하기 위하여서는 사용목적에 맞는 최적의 에너지 형태로 효율 좋게 변환하는 것은 무엇보다도 중요하다. 열전기술은 원래우주개발 및 군사관계에 우선적으로 사용된 기술로써, 냉전시대의 미국과 소련이 개발경쟁을 한 바 있다. 열을 전기로 바꾸는 열전발전과 전기를 열로 바꾸는 냉동 보온의 양면으로부터 우주 탐사기에 탑재된 발전기, 잠수함용 냉난방장치, 비상용 전원, 자동차용 전원 등 가지각색의 system 이 고안되었다. 냉전시대가 끝나고 우주 군사 관계의 기술이 외부로 확산되게 되었으나 열전분야에서는 변환효율이 크지 않다는 단점으로 인해 민생부분으로 즉각적으로 전이할 수없는 어려운 점이 내재해 있었다. 에너지 및 환경의 문제가 심각히 대두되고 있는 오늘날에 이르러서야재료 및 그 응용에 대한 연구가 다시 붐을 이루어 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 발표에서는 열전소재의 효율을 높이기 위한 고차나노구조 제어기술 및 그것을 이용한 최근의 연구결과들을 소개한다.

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.

Analysis of conjugated heat transfer has been conducted for the diffuser exposed to hot combustion gas to design the mechanical durability in high temperature. All the heat transfer means, conduction, convection and radiation have been considered to calculate the total heat flux from hot gas to diffuser surface. The calculation has been implemented by two kinds of methods. One thing is one dimensional method based on empirical equations. The other is CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) axisymmetric calculation containing ${\kappa}-{\omega}$ SST(Shear Stress Transport) turbulent model and DO(Discrete Ordinate) radiation model. The derived results of two methods have compared and showed similar values. From this result, the amount of cooling water and the dimension of water cooling channel were decided.

Soil freezing is a phenomenon arising due to temperature difference between atmosphere and ground, and physical properties of soils vary upon the phase change of soil void from liquid to solid (ice). A heat-transfer mechanism for this case can be explained by the conduction in soil layers and the convection on ground surface. Accordingly, the evaluation of proper thermal properties of soils and the convective condition of ground surface is an important task for understanding freezing phenomenon. To describe convection on ground surface, simplified coefficient methods can be applied to deal with various conditions, such as atmospheric temperature, surface vegetation conditions, and soil constituents. In this study, two methods such as n-factor and convection coefficient for the convective ground surface boundary were applied within a commercial numerical program (TEMP/W) for modeling soil freezing phenomenon. Furthermore, the numerical results were compared to laboratory testing results. In the series of the comparison results, the convection coefficient is more appropriate than n-factor method to model the convective boundary condition.

This study aims to investigate the educational effects of the visualization of heat conduction using a thermal imaging camera on elementary school students through small group activities. It endeavors to explain the reason for why metal feels cold. The scholars conducted in-depth interviews before and after learning the unit "Temperature and Heat" for four students in fifth grade in Seoul. Recorded video and audio materials of the activities, their outputs, and journals of scholars were collected, reviewed, and analyzed. The result demonstrated that visualizing heat conduction using the thermal imaging camera aroused curiosity and provided an opportunity for sophisticated observation and integrated thinking. In addition, the visualization of the heat conduction phenomenon was used as the basis for interpretation and rebuttal for active communication during the small group activities of the students. Consequently, the students changed their non-scientific beliefs, refined their knowledge, and developed their mental models through a small group discussion based on a thermal image video.

This paper investigated experimentally the performance of cooling systems using thermoelectric and piezoelectric modules for local heating and temperature control, such as a handheld electronic devices. The temperature distribution of the cooling region using thermoelectric modules was measured when the piezoelectric module was and was not with a frequency of 80Hz and 110Hz. The coefficients of performance were also calculated by the temperature results, and the thermo-flow phenomena in the cold region was visualized under the same conditions. The results of the temperature distribution measurements and the coefficient of performance showed that the cooling performance of the cooling system using thermoelectric modules can be improved by operating the piezoelectric module. In addition, when the piezoelectric module was operated based on the result of visualization in the cold region, which was formed by thermoelectric modules, the performance thermoelectric cooling was improved by the thermo-flow formed in the entire cold region as the forced convection of vibration was generated on the local cold region by the piezoelectric module.

실린더로 부터 Prandtl수가 0.7인 주변공기로 전달되는 혼합대류 열전달현상이 Stream-Vorticitv 함수로 표시된 지배방정식으로 부터 유한차분법에 의해 분석되어졌다. Reynolds수와 Grashof수의 함수로서 혼합대류 열전달에서 Nusselt수의 값들이 조사되어 졌으며 이들로부터 순수자연대류와 혼합대류, 혼합대류와 순수강제대류사이의 범위를 정하였다. 그 외에도 본 연구에서는 실린더주변의 온도분포와, 공기속도분포, 속도분리점(Separation point), 마찰계수, 압력분포등이 조사되어졌으나 제 1편에서는 Nusselt수와 온도분포만이 연구결과로 주어 졌으며, 본시험의 이론적 결과치들은 발표된 실험치들과 잘 일치하였다.
