Cellular foamed insulation such as polyurethane foam ages and degrades the thermal conductivity. Aging of foam is a result from the diffusion of gases, initially consisting of $CO_2$ but eventually replaced by air from the environment. The variation of the cell gas content with time is primarily influenced by the increase of thermal conductivity of the cellular foam. The weight of foam also changes as the gas diffuses and exchanges. In this study, a weight measurement method has been proposed to evaluate the effective diffusion coefficients of $CO_2$ and Air, $D_{CO2}=7.08504E-11$ and $D_{air}=4.86086E-12$, respectively and are compared with the gas analysis method.

Effective thermal conductivity of particulate reinforced composite has been predicted by Eshelby's equivalent inclusion method modified with Mori-Tanaka's mean field theory. The predicted results are compared with the experimental results from the literature. The model composite is polymer matrix filled with ceramic particles such as silica, alumina, and aluminum nitride. The preliminary examination by Eshelby type model shows that the predicted results are in good agreements with the experimental results for the composite with perfect spherical filler. As the shape of filler deviates from the perfect sphere, the predicted error increases. By using the aspect ratio of the filler deduced from the fixed filler volume fraction of 30%, the predicted results coincide well with the experimental results for filler volume fraction of 40% or less. Beyond this fraction, the predicted error increases rapidly. It can be finally concluded from the study that Eshelby type model can be applied to predict the thermal conductivity of the particulate composite with filler volume fraction less than 40%.

This study was performed to acquire the reliable in-situ thermal conductivity of closed type ground heat exchanger used in ground source heat pump. We selected four sites(Cheonan, Daejeon, Daegu, Gwangju) which are central area of South Korea. Test results show that the effective thermal conductivities are 2.33 W/m$^{\circ}C$, 2.50 W/m$^{\circ}C$, 2.75 W/m$^{\circ}C$ and 2.86 W/m$^{\circ}C$. From this data, we can see that thermal conductivity varies about the range of 23% with the sites. Also, thermal conductivity increases up to 20% by changing grouting material from low salica sand to high one.

지열 히트펌프 시스템은 환경 친화적이고 에너지 절감 시스템으로 알려져 있다. 특히 지중 열교환기는 초기투자비와 시스템 성능을 결정하는 매우 중요한 요소다. 수직형 지열 시스템 설계를 위해서는 현장 열응답 테스트를 통해 지중 유효 열저항을 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 지열이용검토서를 통해 접수된 전국의 지중 열전도도를 지역별로 분석하였다. 전국 평균 지중 열전도도는 2.56 W/mK로 분석되었다. 지중 열전도도가 가장 높은 지역은 서울로 평균 2.68 W/mK이고, 가장 낮은 지역은 부산으로 2.28 W/mK다. 또한 해안을 접하고 있는 지역의 열전도도는 전국 평균에 비해 약 30% 낮다.

A one-dimensional heat transfer model for the vertical borehole system is derived in this study to predict the thermal behavior of the system and surrounding soil. In this model the U-tube is replaced with one effective tube of effective diameter which is surrounded by concentric grout region. All thermal resistances of borehole are counted in the grout region with effective thermal conductivity of grout. Effective thermal conductivity of grout and sand are calculated through parameter estimation. The validity of this model is accomplished through comparison of the predicted temperature profiles of the model with experimental data.

Although various conjectures have been proposed to explain abnormal increase in thermal conductivity of nanofluids, the detailed mechanism could not be understood and explained yet. The main reason is primarily due to the lack of knowledge on the most fundamental factor governing the mechanisms such as Brownian motion, liquid layering, phonon transport, surface chemical effects and agglomeration. By applying surface complexation model for the measurement data of hydrodynamic size, zeta potential, and thermal conductivity, we have shown that sulfate charge state is mainly responsible for the increase in the present condition and may be the factor incorporating all the mechanisms as well. Moreover, we propose a new model including concepts of fractal and interfacial layer. The properties such as thickness and thermal conductivity of the layer are estimated from the surface charge states and the concept of electrical double layer. With this, we could demonstrate the pH dependences of the layer properties and eventually of the effective thermal conductivity of the nanofluid.

고준위폐기물처분장의 설계 및 장기 성능평가를 위한 입력 자료를 확보하기 위해, 한국원자력연구원 지하처분연구시설 부지에서 실시된 경사시추에서 얻은 암석 코어를 이용하여 화강암의 열전도도를 측정하였다. 열전도도에 미치는 함수비의 영향을 조사하기 위해 여러 가지 함수비에서 화강암의 열전도도를 측정하였다. 화강암의 광물 조성, 결정구조 및 이방성의 영향을 고려하지 않고, 비교적 측정이 용이한 유효공극률과 함수비를 이용하여 화강암의 열전도도를 예측할 수 있는 간단한 실험적 관계식이 제안되었다. 이 관계식은 지하처분연구시설 부지에서 채취한 유효공극률 2.7% 이하인 화강암의 열전도도를 10% 오차 이내로 예측할 수 있다.

In this study, thickness, density and effective thermal conductivity of frost forming on the horizontal cylinder were measured with various air temperature and humidity. Reynolds number and temperature of cooling surface are controlled 17300 and $-l5^{\circ}C$ respectively. In each case of air temperature $5^{\circ}C,\;10^{\circ}C,\;15^{\circ}C,$ varying absolute humidity, experiments were executed. In measuring frost surface temperature and thickness of frost layer, infrared thermocouples and CCD camera were used. Frost was gathered from cylinder to measure mass of frost layer. Experimental data showed that the thickness and effective thermal conductivity of the frost layer increase with respect to time. Thickness of frost layer increase with humidity increasing, and density of frost layer increase with air temperature rising. Frost growth with air temperature and density of frost layer with humidity are affected by whether dew point is below or above freezing point.

Knowledge of ground thermal properties is most important for the proper design of large BHE(borehole heat exchanger) systems. Thermal response tests with mobile measurement devices were first introduced in Sweden and USA in 1995. Thermal response tests have so far been used primarily for in insitu determination of design data for BHE systems, but also for evaluation of grout material, heat exchanger types and ground water effects. The main purpose has been to determine insitu values of effective ground thermal conductivity, including the effect of ground-water flow and natural convection in the boreholes. Test rig is set up on a small trailer, and contains a circulation pump, a heater, temperature sensors and a data logger for recording the temperature data. A constant heat power is injected into the borehole through the pipe system of test rig and the resulting temperature change in the borehole is recorded. The recorded temperature data are analysed with a line-source model, which gives the effective insitu values of rock thermal conductivity and borehole thermal resistance.

Carbon-fiber which has very small radial dimension makes us difficult to measure it's properties. So in this paper, we suggest a simple method to measure the thermal conductivity of a carbon-fiber's and carbon-fiber-reinforced-plastics(CFRP) laminates. The thermal conductivity of CFRP laminates was measured experimentally at the same time analytically. The experimental model is based on the one-dimensional analysis of fin sample because CFRP laminates has a thin geometric configuration. The analytical model to measure the thermal conductivity of carbon-fiber is expressed by use of mean-field model which is based on Eshelby's elliptical inclusion problem. Therefore the thermal conductivity of angle-ply laminates can be computed by use of effective longitudinal and transverse thermal conductivities of unidirectional composite of the constituents.
