In a liquid rocket engine using hydrocarbon fuels, cooling of the combustion chamber wall is necessary to prevent the combustion chamber wall from melting or structurally deforming due to high heat flux. Among the various methods, regenerative cooling, which uses fuel as a coolant and then injects it into the combustion process, has good performance. This study investigated the heat transfer characteristics of kerosene as a coolant by varying the copper cross-sectional area, the flow rate in the channel, and the current applied to the channel. Convective heat transfer occurred rapidly when the cross-sectional area of the copper channel was small and when the kerosene flow velocity was fast.

기존형광등보다 에너지소비가 적고, 수명이 길다는 장점을 가진 LED소자는 조명분야뿐만 아니라 선박 및 해양플랜트시장에까지 적용분야가 확대되고 있다. 그러나 LED소자의 수명연장 및 제품신뢰성을 위해서 방열에 관한 연구가 필수적이며 특히, 해양환경적용을 위해서는 내부식성을 요구하는 방열 재료개발에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 일반적으로 방열판소재로 사용되는 알루미늄의 경우 열전도도가 우수하며, 대기 중에서 쉽게 생기는 자연산화막보다 내부식특성을 향상시키기 위해 현재 국내 외의 표면처리 방법으로 전기화학적 방법을 이용한 Anodizing기술을 적용하고 있다. 하지만, Anodizing에 사용되는 질산과 황산액을 처리하는 과정에서 유독물질을 발생시킴으로 유해물질사용제한 등 국제적으로 환경규제가 강화되고 있어 Anodizing기술의 적용이 제한적인 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 친환경적 기술인 Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation (PIII)방식을 사용하여 알루미늄표면에 $Al_2O_3$을 형성하였다. 최적의 산화막증착 조건을 찾기 위해 Gas Flow양, Pulse Voltage, 공정온도, 시간 등을 변수로 실험을 진행하였다. SIMS (Secondary ion mass spectroscopy)를 통해 $Al_2O_3$ 박막두께 및 Oxygen의 정량분석을 하였으며, Anodizing처리된 알루미늄시편과 열전도특성과 내부식특성을 비교하기 위해 각각 Hot Disk 열전도율측정기와 Salt water tester chamber를 사용하였다.

Micro-sized Peltier coolers are generally employed for uniformly distributing heat generated in the multi-chip packages. These coolers are commonly classified into vertical and planar devices, depending on the heat flow direction and the arrangement of thermoelectric materials on the used substrate. Owing to the strong need for evaluation of performance of thermoelectric modules, at present an establishment of proper theoretical model has been highly required. The design theory for micro-sized thermoelectric cooler should be considered with contact resistance. Cooling performance of these modules was significantly affected by their contact resistance such as electrical and thermal junction. In this paper, we introduce the useful and optimal design model of small dimension thermoelectric module.

A study on thermal properties for a single-layer metal and two-layer composites was investigated for the heat-sink application. For the single-layer metal, an aluminum alloy (Al6061) was selected. A screen printed aluminum nitride (AlN) layer on the Al6061 substrate was chosen for the two-layer composites. The thermal conductivity of the sample was determined from the thermal diffusivity measured by the light flash analysis (LFA), specific heat and density. Measured thermal property values were compared to calculated values using the data from the references. The thermal conductivity of composites with screen printed AlN layer on the Al6061 substrate decreased linearly with increasing the thickness of AlN layer. Measured values of the thermal conductivity for composites with $53{\mu}m$ and $163{\mu}m$ thick AlN layers were $114.1W/m{\cdot}K$ and $72.3W/m{\cdot}K$, respectively. In particular, the thermal conductivity of the screen-printed AlN layer was demonstrated by appling the rule of mixture in view point of thermal resistivity. Measured values of the thermal conductivity for AlN layers with the thickness of $53{\mu}m$ and $163{\mu}m$ showed $9.35W/m{\cdot}K$ and $12.40W/m{\cdot}K$, respectively.

As the number of indispensable needs of clean energy increases due to the green new deal revolution, the possibility of heat energy harvesting from the surrounding infrastructures such as a railroad or highway was verified. In order to find more efficient usage of a heat source, the possibility of transforming heat into electricity were confirmed using Bi-Te type thermoelectric element, and electrical quality were tested with experiments of different heat source and environmental change in the surrounding infrastructures. After careful experiments, the possibility of collecting thermal energy and findings of the heat temperature change in infrastructrue are verified with a result of obtaining almost 20.82W in 70 celcius($^{\circ}C$) temperature differences and $1m^2$ surface area. Consequently, the ratio of heat temperatiure change and transforming surface area is the most crucial factor in the harvesting heat energy, and reducing thermal loss and improving thermal convection as well as transformation efficiency of thermoelectric element is required to get more efficient and durable generation.

In this study, turbulent flow and heat transfer characteristics in a helically coiled tube have been numerically investigated. Helically coiled tubes are commonly used in heat exchange systems to enhance the heat transfer rate. Accordingly, they have been widely studied experimentally; however, most studies have focused on the pressure drop and heat transfer correlations. The centrifugal force caused by a helical tube increases the wall shear stress and heat transfer rate on the outer side of the helical tube while decreasing those on the inner side of the tube. Therefore, this study quantitatively shows the variation of the local Nusselt number and friction factor along the circumference at the wall of a helical tube by varying the coil diameter and Reynolds number. It is seen that the local heat transfer rate and wall shear stress greatly decrease near the inner side of the tube, which can affect the safety of the tube materials. Moreover, this study verifies the previous experimental correlations for the friction factor and Nusselt number, and it shows that the correlation between the two in a straight tube can be applied to a helical tube. It is expected that the results of this study can be used as important data for the safety evaluation of heat exchangers and steam generators.

This paper presents a comprehensive laboratory study that examines the effects of porosity, water content, density and grain size distribution on the thermal conductivity of soils which were sampled from 16 synoptic stations of Korea. The experimental results clearly demonstrate that porosity and water content are important parameters which strongly affect the thermal conductivity of soils. Soils with lower porosities and higher water contents have higher thermal conductivities. On the contrary, increase of the matrix density slightly increases the thermal conductivity, and grain size distribution hardly affects the thermal conductivity. Dry soils with the same porosity tend to have more scattered values of thermal conductivity than wet soils. Based on the experimental results, a multiple linear regression model and a nonlinear regression model, having two regression variables of porosity and water content, were presented to predict thermal conductivity. Both models show a high accuracy of prediction with $R^2$ values of 0.74 and 0.82, respectively. Thus, it is expected that the suggested empirical models can be used for predicting thermal conductivity of soils by measuring porosity and water content.
