Hardenability and mechanical properties of boron-bearing steels containing C, Mo and Cr were investigated in this study. Using quench dilatometer, the steel specimens were cooled down to room temperature at different cooling rates to construct continuous cooling transformation diagrams and then the transformation products from austenite were examined. A critical cooling rate was introduced as an index to quantitatively evaluate the hardenability. The C addition to boron-bearing steels did not significantly affect hardenability compared to boron-free steels although it increases the hardenability. With the same content, the Mo addition largely increased the hardenability of boron-bearing steels than the Cr addition because it decreased both the transformation start and finish temperatures at low cooling rates. In particular, the Mo addition completely suppressed the formation of eutectoid ferrite even at the slow cooling rate of $0.2^{\circ}C/s$, whereas the Cr addition nearly suppressed it at the cooling rates above $3^{\circ}C/s$.

LED has the merits of high reliability, semi-permanent life, rapid-response and its small size for use as light source of head lamp. But the dependence of its performance and life on temperature affect on its practical use. Which dependence makes problem when the LED is heated up to a higher temperature level by self-generation of heat, due to "highly integration" to get enough quantity of light. To solve this problem, effective cooling system is needed that consider conduction, convection and radiation. This study points out the limits of natural convection cooling system and propose of forced convection with heat sink. Also, it describes a correlation between heat sink area and fluid velocity using numerical analysis to optimize the cooling system.

An efficient cooling system is an essential part of the electronic packaging such as a high-luminance LED lighting. A special technology, Pulsating Heat Pipe (PHP), can be applied to improve cooling of a sealed, explosion-proof LED light fixture. In this paper, the characteristics of the pulsating heat pipes in the imposed thermal boundary conditions of LED lightings were experimentally investigated and a PHP device that works free of alignment angle was investigated for cooling of explosion-proof LED lights. Five working fluids of ethanol, FC-72, R-123, water, and acetone were chosen for comparison. The experimental pulsating heat pipe was made of copper tubes of internal diameter of 2.1 mm, 26 turns. A variable heat source of electric heater and an array of cooling fins were attached to the pulsating heat pipe. For the alignment of the heating part at bottom, an optimum charging ratio (liquid fluid volume to total volume) was about 50% for most of the fluids and water showed the highest heat transfer performance. For the alignment of the heating part on top, however, only R-123 worked in an un-looped construction. This unique advantage of R-123 is attributed to its high vapor pressure gradient. Applying these findings, a cooling device for an explosion-proof type of LED light rated 30 W was constructed and tested successfully.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of temperature activation and agitation on lipolysis of goat milk. When goat milk was temperature activated twice at intervals of 12hours, free fatty acids were significantly increased after the first activation, but increased slightly during the re-cooling period and after the second activation. Lipolysis of the goat milk warmed at $30^{\circ}C$ was significantly facilitated during the re-cooling period. Lipolysis of the goat milk warmed at $30^{\circ}C$ was much higher than those warmed at $10^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ respectively. The highest lipolysis was occurred when the goat milk was warmed at $30^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes after pre-cooling for 24 hours at $40^{\circ}C$. However, any significant difference was not found in the milk warmed at $40^{\circ}C$, regardless of the pre-cooling period. Lipolysis of the goat milk warmed and agitated at $30^{\circ}C$ was significantly facilitated during the re-cooling period. The lipolysis of that at $30^{\circ}C$ was significantly facilitated during the re-cooling period. The lipolysis of that at $30^{\circ}C$ was much enhanced with agitation. The lipolysis was much higher when agitated at $30^{\circ}C$ than when agitated at $10^{\circ}C$. The length of agitation time at $30^{\circ}C$ didn't give any effect on lipolysis.

A thermoelectric cooler (TEC) is promising as an alternative refrigeration technology for the sake of its inherent advantages; no-moving parts and refrigerant-free in its operation. Due to the compactness, reliability and excellence in temperature stability, TECs have been widely used for small cooling devices. In recent years, thermoelectric devices have been attractive technologies that not only serve the needs of cooling and heating applications but also meet the demand for energy by recycling waste heat. In this research paper, multistage TEC is proposed as a concept of demonstrating the idea of transient cooling technology. The key idea of transient cooling is to harnesses the thermal mass installed at the interfacial level of the stages. By storing heat temporally at the thermal mass, the multistage TEC can readily reach lower temperatures than that by a steady-state operation. The multistage TEC consists of four different sizes of thermoelectric modules and they are operated with an optimized current. Once the cold-part of the uppermost stage is reached at the no-load temperature, the current is successively supplied to the lower stages with a certain time interval; 25, 50 and 75 seconds. The results show the temperatures that can be ultimately reached at the cold-side of the lowermost stage are 197, 182 and 237 K, respectively. It can be concluded that the timing or total amount of the current fed to each thermoelectric module is the key parameter to determine the no-load temperature.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cooling energy saving effects of CRAH supply air temperature(SAT) and design flow rate changes when applying air-side economizer in the data center. MLC(Mechanical Load Component), which is cooling performance indicator of data center, was used to assess the effectiveness of cooling energy savings. It was computed with energy simulation (DesignBuilder) to evaluate the cooling energy performance of 8 different alternatives in a data center. The MLC was 0.31~0.32 regardless of CRAH supply temperature without air-side economizer, and 0.15 to 0.19 value with air-side economizer. That is, cooling energy can be reduced by approximately 40~55% when applying economizer. As the CRAH SAT and design flow rate changed, the MLC values were 0.16 to 0.18 and 0.15 to 0.19, respectively.

A free piston and free displacer (FPFD) Stilting cryocooler for the cooling infrared and cryo-sensor is currently under development at Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials. In this study, the dynamic characteristics of the displacer in the expansion space of the Stirling cooler was investigated by experiment. The experimental results show that the Stirling cryocooler has maximum cooling capacity at the certain relation between operating frequency and natural frequency of the displacer and the operating frequency of the Stirling crycooler should be determined by natural frequency of the linear compressor and displacer.

A free piston and free displacer(FPFD) Stirling cryocooler for cooling infrared and cryo-sensors is currently under development at KIMM(Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials). The FPFD Stirling cryocooler employs 1) the Stirling cycle for refrigeration, 2) linear motors for driving the cryocooler, 3) spring and gas support systems, and 4) fine gap for clearance seals. It is the most suitable design for a mechanical cryocooler utilized in night vision environment. The experimental results show KIMM-E1 Stirling cryocooler (with expander manufactured by KIMM) has the higher cooling power and faster response time at optimum charging pressure.
