We fabricated flanged outer races for wheel bearing units using 0.52%C clean steels, and then characterized and studied the transformation behavior. The outer races produced by hot forging and high frequency induction hardening in this study were analyzed through microstructural characterization using OM, SEM, TEM, and X-ray diffractometer and their microhardness depth profiles of the raceway contacted by balls were measured using MVH tester. The surface hardened layers with a uniform hardness profile in the raceway consisting of very fine martensite with sub-micron sized retained austenite could be formed for very short time during high frequency induction hardening after hot forging. The very fine martensite may be transformed on rapid cooling, from the inhomogeneous austenite nucleated on rapid heating in small particles of pearlitic cementite fragmentated by hot forging. On the other hand the sub-micron sized retained austenite may be chemically stabilized due to their extremely small size, from the small austenite nucleated at the grain boundaries.

This study compared constant water bath performances of conventional water-cooled refrigerator and electric heater with an air-cooled VRF chiller and electric heater equipped with optimal control algorithm. In heating mode, the air cooled VRF chiller and electric heater combination reduced the set temperature arrival time by an average of 42 minutes, and energy was also reduced by 18%. In cooling mode, the two systems took 70 minutes to reach the set temperature and showed no difference. Energy was reduced by 33.5% with the new system. For constant temperature maintaining experiment, after reaching the set temperature of $15^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$ and $22^{\circ}C$, temperature deviations were all in the range of $-0.2^{\circ}C$ to $+0.1^{\circ}C$. Energy was reduced by an average of 84.9%. Through this study, possibility of precise temperature control by an air cooled VRF chiller system was confirmed.

Microscale thermophysical property measurements of liquids have been developed considering the increasing interest in the thermal management of cooling systems and energy storage/transportation systems. To accurately predict the heat transfer performance, information on the thermal conductivity, heat capacity, and density is required. However, a simultaneous analysis of the thermophysical properties of small-volume liquids has rarely been considered. Recently, we proposed a new methodology to simultaneously analyze the aforementioned three intrinsic properties using heater-integrated fluidic resonators (HFRs) in an atmospheric pressure environment comprising a microchannel, resistive heater/thermometer, and mechanical resonator. Typically, the thermal conductivity and volumetric heat capacity are measured based on a temperature response resulting from heating using a resistive thermometer, and the specific heat capacity can be obtained from the volumetric heat capacity by using a resonance densitometer. In this study, we analyze methods to improve the thermophysical property measurement performance using HFRs, focusing on the effect of the ambience around the sensor. The analytical method is validated using a numerical analysis, whose results agree well with preliminary experimental results. In a vacuum environment, the thermal conductivity measurement performance is enhanced, except for the thermal conductivity range of most gases, and the sensitivity of the specific heat capacity measurement is enhanced owing to an increase in the time constant.

이온교환막 연료전지는 전세계적인 에너지 고갈 문제와 온실효과에 대한 대응책의 하나이다. 특히, 이온교환막 연료전지는 전기화학반응에 의해 전기를 생산함과 동시에 열을 발생하기 때문에 가정용으로 적용하기에 적당하다. 가정용 연료전지의 열관리 목적은 연료전지가 최적조건에서 운전할 수 있도록 적절히 온도를 제어해 주는 것으로, 본 연구에서는 부하 변화 시 가정용 연료전지 시스템의 응답 특성과 열관리 특성을 알아보기 위한 해석 모델을 개발하였다. 열관리 해석 모델은 연료전지의 온도를 조절하기 위한 펌프와 열교환기로 구성된 1차측, 주택에 온수를 공급하기 위한 탱크와 펌프 계통의 2차 측으로 구성되었다. 부하를 순차적으로 증가시킬 때와 감소시킬 때를 구분하여 열관리 계통의 응답특성 을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 탱크의 초기 승온에 많은 시간이 소요되기 때문에 부하를 다단으로 오랜 시 간 동안 서서히 증가시키면서 시스템 응답 특성을 확인하였다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 가정용 연료전지의 부하 변화시의 열관리 특성을 고려한 운전 전략에 대해서도 조사하였다.

The performance of heat exchanger using oscillating heat pipe (OHP) for low temperature waste heat recovery was evaluated. OHP used in this study was made from low finned copper tubes connected by many turns to become the closed loop of serpentine structure. The OHP heat exchanger was formed into shell and tube type. R-22 and R-141b were used as the working fluids of OHP with a fill ratio of 40 vol.%. Water was used as the working fluid of shell side. As the experimental parameters, the inlet temperature difference between heating and cooling water and the mass velocity of water were changed. The mass velocity of water was changed from 30 kg/$m^2$s to 92 kg/$m^2$s. The experimental results showed that the heat recovery rate linearly increased as the mass velocity and the inlet temperature difference of water increased. Finally, the performance of OHP heat exchanger was evaluated by $\varepsilon$-NTU method. It was found that the effectiveness would be 80% if NTU were about 1.5.

In this paper, a thermopneumatic PMDS (polydimethlysiloxane) micropump with nozzle/diffuser elements is presented. The micropump is composed of nozzle/diffuser elements as dynamic valves, an actuator consisting of a circular PDMS diaphragm and a Cr/Au heater on a glass substrate. Four PDMS layers are used for fabrication of an actuator chamber, actuator diaphragm by a spin coating process, spacer layer, and nozzle/diffuser by the SU-8 molding process. The radius and thickness of the actuator diaphragm is 2 mm and 30 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, respectively. The length and the conical angle of the nozzle/diffuser elements are 3.5 mm and 20$^{\circ}$, respectively. The actuator diaphragm is driven by the air cavity pressure variation caused by ohmic heating and natural cooling. The flow rate of the micropump in the frequency domain is measured for various duty cycles of the square wave input voltage. When the square wave input voltage of 5 V DC is applied to the heater, the maximum flow rate of the micropump is 44.6 ${mu}ell$/min at 100 Hz with a duty ratio of 80% under the zero pressure difference.

In this paper, we treated the Ni$_3$Al based alloy samples with intense pulsed ion beams (IPIB) at the beam parameters of 250KV acceleration voltage, 100 - 200 A/cm$^2$ current density and 60 u pulse duration. We simulated the thermal-mechanical process near the surface of Ni$_3$Al based alloy with our STEIPIB codes. The surface morphology and the cross-section microstructures of samples were observed with SEM, the composition of the sample surface layer was determined by X-ray Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (XEDS) and the microstructure on the surface was observed by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). The results show that heating rate increases with the current density of IPIB and cooling rate reached highest value less than 150 A/cm$^2$. The irradiation of IPIB induced the segregation of Mo and adequate beam parameter can improve anti-oxidation properly of IC6 alloy. Some craters come from extraneous debris and liquid droplets, and some maybe due to the melting of the intersection region of interphase. Increasing the pulse number enlarges average size of craters and decreases number density of craters.

We have prepared magnetic thin films of FeSiB by sputtering and examined microstructure and magnetic properties of the annealed films in order to investigate the feasibility of the films to microsensor application. Effects of vacuum annealing on the magnetic properties of $Fe_{84}$$Si_{6}$$B_{10}$ films have been examined as a function of temperature. The heating rate and the holding time were 10 K/min and 1 hour, respectively. Vacuum condition was held during cooling to prevent oxidation of the films. The coercivity did not show any noticeable change (~1500 A/m), although the grain size of the crystalline phase in the annealed films increased gradually up to about 16 nm until 673 K. However, both the grain size and the coercivity increased steeply when the annealing temperature increased over 723 K. Since the saturation magnetization is closely related to the phase evolution, the variation of the saturation magnetization of the annealed films was similar to that of the ribbon materials; the thin films were transformed from amorphous to crystalline with $\alpha$-(Fe,Si) phase by increasing annealing temperature.

Electrostatically actuated test devices were designed to evaluate the elastic modulus of single crystalline Si (100) materials for MEMS device. Elastic modolus was calculated from resonant frequency by applying Rayleigh's energy method. Temperature effect on elastic properties was evaluated by detecting the resonant frequency change with increasing temperature to $600^{\circ}C$. The elastic modulus was decreased with heating and then increased with cooling, but specimen with thermal cycle showed a permanent change which is lower than the initial value. This phenomenon was explained by the change of interatomic force and the formation of $SiO_2$ layer on Si. The thickness of oxide layer was estimated by considering the change of mass and stiffness, and the formation of oxide layer was observed by the SEM photograph.
