This study presents comparison of the air side heat transfer and friction characteristics in a heating condition between Louver fin-tube heat exchangers and aluminum heat exchangers. Experiments are performed for the Louver fin-tube heat exchangers and aluminum heat exchangers using a calorimeter, which is designed based on air-enthalpy method described in ASHRAE standards. The air velocities its are varied from 0.7 to 1.6 m/s with 0.3 m/s interval. A study result shows that the heat transfer performances of aluminum heat exchangers are $40{\sim}80%$ higher than those of Louver fin-tube heat exchangers per unit volume, mass and heat transfer area.

An experimental study of the absorption process of water vapor into lithium bromide solution was performed. For the purpose of development of high performance absorption chiller-heater utilizing Lithium Bromide solution as working fluid, the absorber is the most effective to improve the performance of an absorber because it requires the largest heat transfer area in an absorption chiller-heater system. This paper introduces bare tube and inner ribbed notched fin tube for the absorber of absorption chiller-heaters. Inner ribbed notched fin tube has about 10∼20% higher heat and mass transfer performance than bare tube conventionally used in absorbers and the it is expected to perform high heat and mass transfer. This paper will provide important information on the selection of absorber tubes in commercial absorption chill-heaters.

We report on the preparation of reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) electrodes deposited onto flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) via spray coating technique. The highest capacitance value of the unbent rGO/SWNTs electrode was $82Fg^{-1}$ in 1 M $H_2SO_4$ at $100mVs^{-1}$, which decreased to $38Fg^{-1}$ after 500 bending cycle. Further characterization, including galvanostatic charge/discharge measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), showed that the rGO/SWNTs electrode retained a well-defined capacitive response after repetitive bending cycle. Overall, the rGO/SWNTs composite electrode showed reasonable electrochemical properties even prolonged bending cycle. Approximately 50% of the initial capacitance for the rGO/SWNTs composite electrode is remained after 500 bending cycle, making the electrode a potential option for flexible energy storage applications.

This paper presents phenomena of vibration and noise due to acoustic resonance in tube bank of a HRSG. Acoustic resonance is may arise when the vortex shedding frequency coincides with the acoustic natural frequency. At this tube bank, dominant frequencies of vibration in this system were 43.5, 67.5㎐. The 3$\^$rd/ acoustic natural frequency calculated was 68.5㎐. When the difference of vortex shedding frequency and acoustic natural frequency is within ${\pm}$20%, acoustic resonance could occur. In this system, in order to prevent acoustic resonance, acoustic baffle was installed in the tube bank before operating. But acoustic resonance occurred. So, we evaluate the effect of acoustic mode due to baffle extension length. After investigating, we did revise acoustic baffle to eliminate acoustic resonance effectively.

플라즈마를 이용한 가스상 오염물질 처리에 대한 연구는 일부 선진국에서 1970년대부터 시작되어 현재는 상용화 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 국내에서도 1990년대 중반부터 화력발전소에서 배출되는 연소가스 중의 유해성분을 처리하기 위한 연구를 필두로 최근에는 휘발성 유기화합물(VOCs) 분해관련 연구 등 상당한 연구가 수행되고 있다. 저온 플라즈마 공정은 전기적 방전 특성을 이용하므로 스트리머코로나 형성영역인 반응기와 전원공급장치 사이의 기계적ㆍ전기적 매칭(matching)이 중요한 과제이다. (중략)

최근 디스플레이, 태양전지 그리고 touch screen panels 등 optoelectronic 장치의 시장이 성장함에 따라 투명전극의 수요가 증가하고 있다. Indium tin oxide (ITO)의 좋은 특성 때문에 주로 투명전극에 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 화학적 안정성이 떨어지고, 휘어질 때 특성저하가 심하여 금속나노와이어, 탄소나노튜브, 전도성폴리머, 그리고 그래핀 등의 다른 투명전극의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서 그래핀은 높은 전자 이동도(200000 cm2v-1s-1)와 휘어져도 전기적 크게 변하지 않는 특성 때문에 유망한 투명 전도성 전극 (Transparent Conductive Electrodes, TCEs)으로 연구되어왔다. 또한 다양한 속성 가운데, 높은 광 투과성은 그래핀의 가장 큰 장점이다 [1]. 최근, 화학 기상 증착 (Chemical Vapor Deposition, CVD) 등 다양한 제조 방법이 대량 생산을 위해 개발되었다. 그러나 이 방법은 비용이 많이 들며, 과정이 상당히 복잡하고 높은 온도 (${\sim}1000^{\circ}C$)를 필요로 한다. 따라서 용매 기반의 환원된 그래핀 산화물(Reduced Graphene Oxides, RGOs)이 최근 주목 받고 있다. 그러나 RGOs의 면저항이 높아 전극으로서 사용이 제한된다. 따라서 전기적 특성을 향상시키는 방법으로 단일 벽 탄소 나노튜브 (Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes, SWNTs)를 혼합하거나 화학적 도핑을 통하여 면저항을 크게 향상시키는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 이런 화학적 도핑의 경우 박막이 공기 중에 직접 산소나 습기와 반응하여 전기적 특성이 저하되는 문제점을 가지고 있다 [2]. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 AuCl3을 도핑한 박막에 내열성 및 내광성 등의 화학적 안정성이 뛰어난 PEDOT:PSS를 코팅하여 필름의 공기중의 노출을 막아 줌으로써 도핑의 안전성 및 전기적 특성을 최적화하였다. 본 연구에서는 간단한 dip-coating방법을 사용하여 4개의 RGO/SWNTs 박막을 흡착하였다. 다음으로 AuCl3를 도핑하여 면저항 $4.909K{\Omega}$, $4.381K{\Omega}$인 두 개의 샘플의 시간과 온도에 따른 면저항의 변화를 확인하였다. 그리고 필름의 도핑 안전성을 향상 시키기 위해 AuCl3를 도핑한 필름 위에 전도성 폴리머 PEDOT:PSS 코팅하여 면저항 $886.1{\Omega}$, $837.5{\Omega}$인 두 개의 샘플의 시간과 온도에 따른 면저항의 변화를 확인하였다. AuCl3 도핑된 필름의 경우 공기 중에 150시간 노출 시 72%의 면저항 증가가 발생하였지만 PEDOT:PSS가 코팅된 필름의 경우 5%의 면저항 증가가 나타나 확연한 차이를 보였다. 또한 AuCl3 도핑한 필름의 경우 $150^{\circ}C$에서 60시간동안 공기중에 노출되었을 때 525%의 면저항 증가가 발생하였지만 PEDOT:PSS가 코팅된 필름의 경우 58%의 면저항 증가를 나타내었다. 이것은 PEDOT:PSS가 passivation역할을 하여 필름이 공기에 노출된 부분을 막아주어 도핑된 필름의 면저항의 변화를 줄여 주었음을 알 수 있다.

In this study, pin-fin arrays, which are widely used for cooling turbine blades, were studied. The vortex generator in pin-fin arrays is located in front of the circular tube. The cross-section of the vortex generator is NACA-9410. The purpose of this study is to analyze heat transfer performance and flow characteristics of pin-fin arrays. The position of vortex generator is changed with the vertical flow direction on the bottom wall. Pin-fin arrays were calculated with 6000, 10000 and 15000 Reynolds number. The commercial program ANSYS v18.0 CFX and the turbulence model $k-{\omega}$ SST were used. As a result, the heat transfer performance increased up to 5.8% and pressure loss increased less than 1%.

Polypropylene films reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotubes and exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets were fabricated by extrusion, and the effects of filler type and take-up speed on the mechanical properties and microstructure of composite films were investigated. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed that the addition of carbon nanomaterials resulted in increased degree of crystallinity. However, increasing the take-up speed reduced the degree of crystallinity, which indicates that tension-induced orientations of polymer chains and carbon nanomaterials and the loss of degree of crystallinity due to rapid cooling at high take-up speeds act as competing mechanisms. These observations were in good agreement with tensile properties, which are governed by the degree of crystallinity, where the C-grade exfoliated graphite nanoplatelet with a surface area of $750m^2/g$ showed the greatest reinforcing effect among all types of carbon nanomaterials used. Scanning electron microscopy was employed to observe the carbon nanomaterial dispersion and orientation, respectively.

To improve both the GOD immobilization capability and sensitivity of MWCNTs-based biosensor electrode, the electrode was prepared by adding different quantities of GO. The addition of GO increased hydrophilicity and the surface free energy of electrodes for glucose sensing as well as the dispersion of MWCNTs. In addition, the GOD immobilization capability was enhanced and the sensitivity was improved up to $121{\mu}A\;mM^{-1}$ even though having a high $K_m$ value (0.105) when adding 0.05 g GO to 0.05 g MWCNTs. These experimental results were attributed to the fact that the improvement in dispersion stability for MWCNTs, hydrophilicity, and surface free energy of electrode surface due to the addition of GO affected GOD immobilization capability.

Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is a semi-crystalline engineering thermoplastic resin that has outstanding thermal stability, mechanical strength, inherent flame retardancy, chemical resistance, and electrical properties. Due to these outstanding properties, it is preferred as a matrix for composite materials. Many studies have been conducted to produce composites with carbon fibers and glass fibers to improve mechanical properties and provide functionality of PPS. In this review paper, we report a brief introduction to the fabrication and applications of PPS composites with carbon nanotubes, graphene, carbon fibers, and glass fibers.
