There is a close relation between the heat generation in the fuel cell stack and the fuel cell performance. In PEM fuel Gell vehicles, the stack coolant temperature is about $65^{\circ}C$, which is far lower than that for general automobile engine. Therefore, it is hard to release heat generated in the stack by using a radiator of limited size because of the reduced temperature difference between the coolant and the ambient air. In this study, indirect stack cooling system using $CO_2$ heat pump was designed and its stack cooling performance in releasing heat to the ambient was investigated. This work focuses on a series of processes that grasp the relation among the fuel cell power, the radiator capacity and the stack temperature. The purpose of this work is to find out a way to properly release sufficient amount of heat through the finite sized radiator, so that the stack power general ion can not be deteriorated due to the stack temperature increase. The optimization between the compressor power consumption and the fuel cel1 output power can be carried out to maximize the performance of fuel cell system.

In this research, combustion and spray characteristics were investigated experimentally in a constant volume chamber by applying bio-diesel fuel to a common-rail system in which precise control is available for utilizing environmentally friendly properties of bio-diesel fuel. The experiment was conducted at fuel temperatures $20^{\circ}C$ and $-20^{\circ}C$ to investigate combustion characteristics of bio-diesel fuel provoking problems in fluidity specially in a low temperature. For the visualization, the experiment was carried out under various conditions of ambient pressure, injection pressure and fuel temperature. The test was made by three different types of diesel fuels, conventional diesel, BD20 and BD100. In summary, this research aims to investigate combustion characteristics in the application of bio-diesel fuels and compare the results with performance of conventional diesel fuel. This experimental data may provide fundamentals of spray and combustion of bio-diesel fuels at a low temperature and contribute to the development of bio-diesel engines in future.

A two-dimensional thermal model of proton exchange membrane fuel cell with large active area is developed to investigate the performance of fuel cell with large active area over various thermal management conditions. The core sub-models of the two-dimensional thermal model are one-dimensional agglomerate structure electrochemical reaction model, one-dimensional water transport model, and a two-dimensional heat transfer model. Prior to carrying out the simulation, this study is contributed to set up the operating temperature of the fuel cell with large active area which is a maximum temperature inside the fuel cell considering durability of membrane electrolyte. The simulation results show that the operating temperature of the fuel cell and temperature distribution inside the fuel cell can affect significantly the total net power at extreme conditions. Results also show that the parasitic losses of balance of plant component should be precisely controlled to produce the maximum system power with minimum parasitic loss of thermal management system.

In the gasoline engine of fuel injection type, atomization of fuel droplet and its distribution has directly influenced the performance of engine and harmful emission. To investigate atomization characteristics of fuel spray, in this paper fuel spray of air-assisted injector is observed at the various initial conditions of ambient air temperature and air assisted pressure. Behavior of fuel spray is photographed with microscopic visualization system. The SMD of fuel droplet is measured with PMAS (Particle Motion Analysis System). The effect of air-assisted pressure and temperature of ambient air resulted in the decrement of SMD and its variation. Finally, It was found that It was found that from spray angle at the two-hole injector had measured $20{\pm}4$ degree the result of photographs by shadow graphy. The mean diameter of suns decreased and the of droplets increased with increasing the temperature in the spray fields by the results of PMAS measurement. It was found that the characteristics of sprays became finer by increasing the temperature of spray fields about 373K without the delivery of air-assistance.

고준위폐기물을 지하 500m의 화강암 암반의 처분장에 장기간(약 10,000년 동안) 처분 시 폐기물에서 발생하는 열에 의하여 처분용기 및 처분용기를 감싸고 있는 주위 구조물(벤토나이트 버퍼, 암반 등)의 처분시간 경과에 따른 온포분포 변화를 알아내는 것은 처분장 설계를 위하여 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 수치해석기법을 이용하여 고준위폐기물에서 발생하는 열에 의한 처분용기 및 벤토나이트 버퍼, 처분동굴을 포함하는 복합구조물의 온도분포 변화를 구하였다. 특히 처분 후 500년의 처분시간 경과에 따른 복합구조물의 온도분포 해석을 수행하여 온도분포 변화를 구하였다. 시간에 따른 온도분포 변화에 대한 해석결과를 분석한 결과 처분장 각 구성부분별로 차이는 있으나 처분초기부터 구성부분별로 각각 다르게 온도가 증가하는데 가장 늦은 부분은 150년까지 완만하게 온도가 증가하다가 그 이후에는 온도가 서서히 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

항공기내 연료온도의 변화가 유한차분식에 의하여 해석되었다. 항공기의 여러 임무 가운데 근접항공지원 임무가 20% hot day 외부대기 조건과 함께 이음속 영역에서 고려되었다. 수정 Dufort-Frankel기법의 explicit방법에 의해 수치계산이 수행되었다. 항공기는 난류유동장내에 있는 것으로 가정되었다. 추가 연료공급-회송 개념을 갖는 항공기 연료시스템 모델이 고려되었다. 본 해석의 결과로써, 추가연료 공급이 증가함에 따라 연료탱크의 온도는 상승함을 보인 반면, 엔진 입구에서의 연료온도는 몇몇 비행단계 및 엔진 연료요구량이 많은 구간을 제외하고는 감소함을 보였다. 본 해석으로부터, 추가 연료공급-회송개념을 사용한 연료시스템이 엔진입구 연료온도를 낮추기 위한 효과적인 방법임을 나타났다. 또한, 연료/오일 열교환기로 흐르는 연료유동량이 연료온도 변화에 중요한 인자임이 밝혀졌다.

The fuel injection type, in the gasoline engines of atomization of fuel droplet and its distribution hae influenced directly on the decision of engine performance and harmful emission. In this paper, atomization characteristics of fuel spray is investigated with microscopic visualization system. Particle motion analysis system is used to measure the SMD from fuel spray of air-assisted injector by initial factors such as temperature of ambient air and air-assisted pressure. As air-assist pressure and ambientair temperature increase, the SMD is decreased, and its variation is more stable.

A new soot particle generation system has been developed and tested. The soot generation system consists of two sections, a fuel supply and a soot production. In the fuel supply module, either liquid fuel precisely controlled by a syringe pump is mixed with preheated carrier gas and rapidly evaporated or gaseous fuel controlled by a MFC is diluted with dilution gas. The soot production module contains a heater that can raise the gas/fuel temperature up to $1400^{\circ}C$. The physical and chemical properties of produced soot particles depend on the type and concentration of fuel, the residence time, and temperature in the soot production section. The soot generation system will be utilized to produce well-defined soot particles for soot studies such as the evaluation of experimental sampling and analysis processes for the quantitative assessment of PM and BC from ships and the adverse health effects on pulmonary and cardiovascular systems of human body.

The behavior of fission gas in all major types of nuclear fuel has been reviewed with an emphasis on more recently discovered aspects. It is proposed that the behavior of fission gas can be classified in a number of characteristic types that occur at a high or low operating temperature, and/or at high or low fissile burnup. The crystal structure and microstructure of the various fuels are the determinant factors in the proposed classification scheme. Three types of behavior, characterized by anisotropic $\alpha$-U, high temperature metallic $\gamma$-U, and cubic ceramics, are well-known and have been extensively studied in the literature. Less widely known are two equally typical low temperature kinds: one associated with fission induced grain refinement and the other with fission induced amorphization. Grain refinement is seen in crystalline fuel irradiated to high burnup at low temperatures, whereas breakaway swelling is observed in amorphous fuel containing sufficient excess free-volume. Amorphous fuel, however, shows stable swelling if insufficient excess free-volume is available during irradiation.
