본 연구는 열에너지 교환을 목적으로 이용되는 환상휜의 비등열전달에서 간섭판의 영향을 고찰한 실험적인 연구이다. 휜과 인접한 간섭판의 간격과, 휜 높이의 변화에 따라 비등열전달에 미치는 영향을 구했다. 휜 간격은 단독 환상휜에 간섭판을 0.05mm에서 2mm 가지 6가지 종류, 그리고 휜 높이는 3 mm , 8mm, 13 mm 의 3 종류로 변화시켰다. 실험결과 휜 높이가 제일 큰 13 mm 간섭판 간격이 0.25mm 로 비교적 좁은 간격임에도, 핵비등영역에서는 열전달 촉진효과가있었다. 그러나 간섭판의 간격이 0.05mm 로 더좁아지면 저열류속 영역에서는 휜 간격 내에 유체가 유입이 어려워 휜 선단만에서의 비등열전달과 일치한다. 이러한 경향은 휜 높이가 작아져도 비슷하다. 또한 휜과 간섭판의 간격이 0.25mm이상이면 간섭판의 영향이 적어, 확대 전열면으로서 전열 촉진효과를 얻을 수 있다.

When implementing butt joint welding of two plates, it is useful to attach end-tabs made of a metal with high heat conductivity (e.g., copper) at the front and back sides of the welded plates to prevent the bead from rolling down and prevent defects that may occur at the tips of the weld zone. In this study, the fin shape, which is known to have good heat discharging characteristics by natural convection, has been applied to enhance the cooling performance of the end-tab. From both experiment and numerical analysis, it was confirmed that end-tabs with fin-shaped holes have better heat discharging performance than end-tabs without holes. Through thermal and fluid flow analysis, the cooling rates of end-tabs with different hole shapes were estimated in order to figure out characteristics of shape factor that are important for the heat discharging performance. As a result, we found that the structure including vertical fins with optimal fin gap was the best-performing shape.

This study investigates the pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of heat exchanger according to the combination of fin configuration and fin pitch of each row by the similitude experiments with the finned-tube geometry scaled as large as four times Finned-tube heat exchanger has 2 rows, and fin geometry consists of two cases, louver-louver and louver-slit. Fin pitch is varied with three types in each case, 6-6 mm, 8-8 mm and 8-6 mm. Results show that total heat transfer can be occurred evenly at each row by varying the fin pitch of 1st row and 2nd row. Heat transfer rate and pressure drop characteristics change according to the combination for fin geometry and fin pitch.

The effect of cutted pin in front of pin-fin array was analyzed for increasing the cooling performance of gas turbine blade. The numerical simulations were conducted to figure out the flow and thermal characteristics. The base case which is staggered pin-fin array, cut pin case 1 which has X₂/D_p=1.25 cut pin and cut pin case 2 which has X₃/D_p=1.75 cut pin were compared. The results showed that cut pin increases the strength of the horseshoe vortex which occurred at the leading edge of pin-fin array. Furthermore, the wake effect is reduced at the trailing edge of pin-fin array. As a result, the heat transfer distribution on the endwall increases. However, the friction factor increases owing to the installation of cut pin, but the thermal performance factor is increased maximum 23.8% in cut pin case 2. Therefore, installation of cut pin will be helpful for increasing the cooling performance of pin-fin array of gas turbine blade.

In this paper, an experimental investigation is performed to estimate the thermal performance of a natural convective heat sink with plate fins subject to the uniform wall temperature condition. Extensive experiments are performed with various input powers, fin spacings, and heights of the natural convective heat sinks with plate fins. In particular, the effect of the inclination angle on the thermal performance of the heat sink is studied. In order to validate the experimental data, the experimental results are compared with results from previous studies. Based on the experimental results, the appropriate ranges of the previous correlations between the input power, the fin spacing, the fin height, and the inclination angle for the natural convective heat sink with plate fins are evaluated.

Heat and mass transfer behaviors of metal hydride beds were predicted by solving a set of volume-averaged equations numerically both for the gas (hydrogen) and the solid(metal hydride) phases. Time variations of temperature and hydrogen concentration ratio distributions were obtained for internally cooled, cylindrical-shaped beds with metal(aluminum) fins imbedded in them. Also, time variations of the space-averaged hydrogen concentration ratio were obtained. Temperature and velocity of the coolant, hydrogen pressure at the gas inlet, and the fin spacing were taken as the parameters. The hydrogen absorption rate increases with the higher velocity and the lower temperature of the coolant, and with the decrease of the fin spacing. Increasing of the hydrogen pressure at the gas inlet also promotes the rate of absorption though the increasing rate gradually slows down. The amount of the hydrogen storage per unit volume of the bed decreases with the tighter fin spacing despite of the higher absorption rate ; therefore, there should be an optimum fin spacing for a given volume of the system and the amount of the hydrogen storage, in which the absorption rate is the highest.

The temperature distribution and heat flux of the inner cylinder wall of a 4-cycle turbocharged gasoline engine were calculated by a 2-dimensional coordinate transformation. Boundary conditions of the inner wall of the cylinder were taken from the results of diagnostic engine simulations. Results show that the ununiformity of inner wall temperature of the cylinder black can be reduced by a proper choice of the thickness of fin and the distance between two cylinder blocks.

Heat pumps come into wide use because high energy efficiency can be obtained and diverse heat sources like geothermal heat, waste heat and air are available. It is necessary for an air source heat pump to defrost in order to remove frost on the surfaces of an outdoor heat exchanger. It is impossible for continuous heating if reverse cycle operation is used as defrosting method, furthermore it causes the degradation of COP. In this study an fin-tube heat exchanger with three rows was used as an outdoor coil. One row among three rows of the heat exchanger was used like a condenser in order to remove frost on it, the others were used as evaporator to accomplish continuous heating. Each row was switched in order from a condenser to an evaporator in specified time interval. Tests were carried out during minimum 180 minutes at the defrost-heating test condition(dry bulb temperature $2^{\circ}C$, wet bulb temperature $1^{\circ}C$) described in KS C 9306. Time-averaged COP was about 20% higher than that of conventional defrosting method.

A transparent film was fabricated based on bacterial cellulose (BC), BC has excellent physical strength and stability at high temperature and it is an environmental friendly flexible material. In order to improve the conductivity, silver nanowire (AgNW) and/or graphene were introduced to the BC membrane. The aspect ratio of the AgNW synthesized in this study was 214, with a length of $15{\mu}m$ and width of 70 nm. The higher aspect ratio improved the conductivity by reducing the contact resistance. The thermal and electrical properties of 7 types of films prepared were investigated. Each film was fabricated with rectangular shape ($2mm{\times}2mm{\times}50{\mu}m$). The films were scored with a net shape by a knife, and filled with AgNW and graphene to bestow conductivity. The film filled with AgNW showed favorable electrical characteristics with a thickness of $350{\mu}m$, electron concentration of $1.53{\times}10^{19}$, electron mobility of $6.63{\times}10^5$, and resistivity of 0.28. The film filled with graphene had a thickness of $360{\mu}m$, electron concentration of $7.74{\times}10^{17}$, electron mobility of 0.17, and resistivity of 4.78. The transmittances at 550 nm were 98.1% and 80.9%, respectively. All the films were able to light LEDs bulbs although their brightness differed. A thermal stability test of the BC and PET films at $150{\pm}5^{\circ}C$ showed that the BC film was more stable, whereas the PET film was quickly banded. From these results, it was confirmed that there it is possible to fabricate new transparent conductivity films based on BC.
