This study conducted tensile tests on an Alloy 690TT tube at room temperature (RT) and at $343^{\circ}C$ using tube- and ring-type specimens to investigate the stress-strain behavior and tensile properties of a steam generator (SG) tube in the axial and circumferential directions at RT and at the design temperature of a nuclear power plant (NPP). The results of the axial tensile test showed that yield point phenomena appeared at both RT and $343^{\circ}C$, and serrated flow in the stress-strain curve appeared at $343^{\circ}C$. Yield and tensile strengths for both directions were clearly lower at $343^{\circ}C$ compared to RT; however, the elongations were approximately the same at both test temperatures. Regardless of the test temperature, the strengths in the circumferential direction were lower by approximately 5~10 % than those in the axial direction. In addition, the test data revealed that the reduction in the yield and tensile strengths of the Alloy 690TT SG tube with the test temperature was more significant than that estimated by the temperature correction factor of ASME Sec.II.

화석에너지에 대한 경제적 부담과 환경오염문제를 줄이기 위하여 열펌프의 성능계수향상을 위하여 냉온 공기열교환기(HEEVA)를 고안하였고, 이 열교환기의 열특성과 성능계수향상에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 냉.난방 실험을 수행하였다. HEEVA에 의한 찬 공기와 더운 공기의 온도변화, 전열량 및 냉온 공기열교환기 효율, 총열전달계수등을 측정분석하였고, 냉난방시 외기온에 따른 열펌프의 성능계수, 소비전력, 응축기.증발기 출구 공기토출 온도 변화를 측정 분석함으로서 다음과 같은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 1. 외기온이 -4~11$^{\circ}C$로 변할 때 열펌프의 난방과정에서 HEEVA 찬공기 입출구 온도차는 4.5$^{\circ}C$에서 9.$0^{\circ}C$로 증가하였으며, HEEVA에 의한 영향으로 2~6$^{\circ}C$상승된 공기가 증발기 입구로 유입되어 냉매증발을 촉진하였다. 2. 실온이 4~22$^{\circ}C$일 때 HEEVA 더운공기 입출구 온도차는 3$^{\circ}C$에서 7$^{\circ}C$로 증가하였으며, 응축기에 유입되는 공기온도를 3~8$^{\circ}C$낮게 함으로서 압축기 소모전력을 감소시켜 COP 상승 효과를 나타냈다. 3. 외기온과 실온변화에 따라 풍량 346m$^3$/hr의 찬 공기가 받은 열량과 풍량 747m$^3$/hr의 더운 공기가 준 열량간의 차는 50~150kcal/hr로 나타났으며, 더운 공기가 준열량과 찬 공기가 받은 열량의 비가 83~98% 이었으므로 HEEVA의 열 교환율은 91% 을 보였다. 4. 총합열전달계수는 이론값이 실험 값보다 1~3W/m$^2$K 크게 나타났으며, 이 결과는 두 값 사이에 10% 내.외의 편차로서 Nusselt수를 구하기 위한 Petukhov상관식의 자체오차 15%에 비해 크지 않은 오차범주에 속하며, 이론상의 총합열전달계수 유도식의 타당성을 입증한 것이라 하겠다. 5. HEEVA를 작동함으로서 난방시 COP가 HEEVA를 작동하지 않았을 경우보다 0.3~0.5 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 HEEVA가 겨울철 난방에 효율을 높일수 있는 것으로 판단된다.

To guarantee the exact control of missile warhead, it is inevitable to ensure the stabilities in the view points of structural and fluid/thermo dynamics of the rocket motor. Specially, despite of shortness in operating time of the rocket motor which is initial turning type of missile, it occurs frequently some problems of ablation at the neighborhood of the nozzle throat, with the result that the system itself gets to failure. In these connections, in the present study, the effect of the operating time of a rocket motor on the coefficient of convective heat transfer at the nozzle wall is investigated by numerical analysis. As a result, it is turned out that the heat transfer coefficient is largest at the just ahead of nozzle throat and decreases with the increase of operating time of the rocket motor. Furthermore, we found that the radius of curvature of throat becomes smaller, the maximum coefficient of convective heat transfer becomes larger.

We investigate the heat-transfer and pressure-drop characteristics of fin-and-tube heat exchangers with a copper plate or copper spiral fins. Twenty-four samples with different fin pitches and tube rows were tested. For both configurations, the effect of the fin pitch on the j factor is negligible, and the f factor increases with the fin pitch. The effect of the tube row depends on the configuration. For plate fin-and-tube heat exchangers, the j factor decreases as the row number increases; the reverse is true for spiral exchangers. We explain this by considering the flow pattern. The j factor for plate fin-and-tube heat exchangers is larger than that for spiral exchangers, and the difference decreases as the row number increases. The f factor of the plate fin-and-tube heat exchanger is also larger. We compare our results with existing predictions of correlations.

The objective of the present study is to provide data needed to decide covering method to be able to increase the thermal insulation and light transmittance efficiency of commercial greenhouse. The thermal insulation effect, PPF transmittance and quantity of condensation water were estimated in experimental tomato greenhouses covered with three types of coverings of single layer, air inflated and conventional double layers covering. The overall heat flow of air inflated double layers greenhouse was similar to that of conventional double layers greenhouse, but the temperature between covering material and thermal screen in air inflated double layers greenhouse was lower than that in conventional double layers greenhouse at the same outside temperature condition due to air leakage through the gap of roof vent. The overall heat transfer coefficients acquired by experiment that was performed in single layer and conventional double layers greenhouses were close to those obtained from model experiment. Even though the PPF transmittance of air inflated double layers greenhouse was lower than that of single layer greenhouse, which was greater than that of conventional double layers greenhouse. The quantity of condensation water on covering surface of single layer greenhouse was greater than that of air inflated double layers greenhouse due to lower covering surface temperature.

The calculation method of ground heat exchange in greenhouses has different ideas in each design standard, so there is a big difference in each method according to the size of greenhouses, it is necessary to establish a more accurate method that can be applied to the domestic. In order to provide basic data for the formulation of the calculation method of greenhouse heating load, we measured the soil temperature distribution and the soil heat flux in three plastic greenhouses of different size and location during the heating period. And then the calculation methods of ground heat exchange in greenhouses were reviewed. The soil temperature distributions measured in the heating greenhouse were compared with the indoor air temperature, the results showed that soil temperatures were higher than room temperature in the central part of greenhouse, and soil temperatures were lower than room temperature in the side edge of greenhouse. Therefore, it is determined that the ground heat gain in the central part of greenhouse and the perimeter heat loss in the side edge of greenhouse are occurred, there is a difference depending on the size of greenhouse. Introducing the concept of heat loss through the perimeter of building and modified to reflect the size of greenhouse, the calculation method of ground heat exchange in greenhouses is considered appropriate. It was confirmed that the floor heat loss measured by using soil heat flux sensors increased linearly in proportion to the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor. We derived the reference temperature difference which change the direction of ground heat flow and the perimeter heat loss factor from the measured heat flux results. In the heating design of domestic greenhouses, reference temperature differences are proposed to apply $12.5{\sim}15^{\circ}C$ in small greenhouses and around $10^{\circ}C$ in large greenhouses. Perimeter heat loss factors are proposed to apply $2.5{\sim}5.0W{\cdot}m^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1}$ in small greenhouses and $7.5{\sim}10W{\cdot}m^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1}$ in large greenhouses as design standard data.

As an innovative effort to secure economically viable heat recovery system, various fin shapes for industrial fin-tube heat exchangers have been studied for better performance. In this study, the waste gas heat recovery from four different fin shapes was experimentally performed for heat transfer rate and pressure drop. According to the tested results, the twist and wavy shape fins of rectangular type show the superior performance in terms of Goodness factor and jH/f factor ratio, whereas the circular spiral fin shows the inferior values. Experimental results shows good comparison with the numerical results with a slight discrepancy of 5%, which is quite resonable.

In the present study, the characteristics on the internal flow and heat transfer of the dimple-type plate heat exchanger were numerically investigated. For the numerical analysis, the conjugate heat transfer analysis between hot fluid-separating plate-cold fluid was performed using the periodic boundary condition at the center area of the plate and appropriate inlet and outlet conditions for the two streams. The numerical results were validated by the comparison with the experimental data. From these results, the correlations of the Colburn j-factor for the heat transfer and the Fanning f-factor for the flow friction were obtained. The present results could be applicable for the optimal design of dimple-type plate heat exchanger.

In this paper, a numerical study was performed to investigate the performance characteristics of a pre-heater. The effects of fin pitch and fin array type(in-line, staggered, leaned array) were reported in terms of Colburn j-factor and Fanning friction factor f, as a function of Re. Three-dimensional numerical simulation has been performed by using flow analysis program, FLUENT 13.0. The results show that Colburn j-factor decreases with the decrease of fin pitch attached in the annular tube. But the fin pitch has little effect on f-factor. The staggered array and leaned array show improved heat transfer performance compared with in-line array, so that Colburn j-factor was increased. It also shows that the f-factor of leaned array is the highest in the studied range of Reynolds number.
