The aluminized steel sheet exhibits excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion, and can substitute for stainless steel or heat-resisting steel in some situations. Furthermore it has wide applications, owing to its low cost and excellent performance, in the petrochemical industry, electric power, other energy conversion system, etc. and has attracted the attention of many investigators. Laser welding is a remarkably advantageous method for welding of thin sheets and surface-treated steel sheets since the method requires less heat input, and it is suitable for high-speed welding. In this study, thus, the laser weldability of aluminized steel sheet was investigated. As the result from the study, there is an Al-rich zone in a welded part which has decreased the welding strength due to the intermetallic compounds in the Al-rich zone.

This paper presents an analytical solution to predict the transient temperature distribution in fillet arc welding including the effect of molten metal. The solution is obtained by solving a transient three-dimensional heat conduction equation with convection boundary conditions on the surfaces of a plate, and mapping the infinite plate onto the fillet weld geometry with energy equation. The electric heat input on the fillet weld and on the infinite plate is assumed to have a combination of two bivariate Gaussian distribution. To check the validity of the solution. FCA welding experiments were performed under various welding conditions. The actual isotherms of the weldment cross-sections at various distances from the arc start point are compared with those of simulation result.

This study investigates two-phase cooling system of close-loop by using FC-72 and PCM(Phase change material). The cooling system consists of evaporator, cold plate, micro pump, and condenser. The heat input on the performance of evaporator is appreciated by visualizing the boiling on the evaporator. The heat performance of cooling system is investigated to determine the effects of volume fill ratio change at working fluid, pump flow rate change, and volume fill ratio change at PCM in cold plate. Experimental results show the ideal condition when the volume ratio of working fluid, the pump flowing, and the volume ratio of PCM are 60%, 6ml/min, and 60% respectively.

Joining thin aluminum alloy is difficult using most wilding techniques. Many of problems associated burn-through by the high heat input Common welding techniques are TIG, MIG, and MIG-PULSE welding. The VP-GMAW provides more control of the heat balance in the voiding arc by taking advantage of the different arc characteristics obtained with each of the two polarities. In this paper, we proposed new VP_GMA Welding method by control DSP 320C32, and the characteristic and experiment result-voltage, current, welding bead. penentraion by this method are presented

This work demonstrated the application of an artificial neural network model for predicting the Jominy hardness curve by considering 13 alloying elements in low alloy steels. End-quench Jominy tests were carried out according to ASTM A255 standard method for 1197 samples. The hardness values of Jominy sample were measured at different points from the quenched end. The developed artificial neural network model predicted the Jominy curve with high accuracy ($R^2=0.9969$ for training and $R^2=0.9956$ for verification). In addition, the model was used to investigate the average sensitivity of input variables to hardness change.

Friction welding is welding method to use frictional heat of two material. A defect of friction welding is that create flash. The flash is part that must have cut after welding finished. But the welding part with flow gallery by friction welding can't cut flash. Therefore the welding part with flow gallery was designed with no effect in flow. In this research, decide the welding shape parameter of welding part with flow gallery and do friction welding analysis. In friction welding analysis, must input necessary S-S curve, friction coefficient by temperature change, upset pressure, RPM etc. According to analysis result, decided the optimal shape of welding part with no effect in flow.

The aim of this study is to investigate the optimum drawing parameter for BAS111 welded tubes. The BAS111 aluminium alloy tubes with 25.4mm in external diameter and 1.5mm in thickness for heat-exchangers were manufactured by high frequency induction welding with the V shaped convergence angle 6.8$^{\circ}$ and power input 50㎾. With increasing the reduction of area (1.6, 5.8, 11.5, 14.2, 18.5, 22.5%) by drawing, tensile strength was increased and elongation was decreased. With increasing the reduction of area by drawing, hardness in weld metal increased rapidly, while that of base metal increased slowly. In the specimen with the outer diameter smaller than 22mm, hardness of weld metal was higher than that of base metal. The optimum drawing parameter of area reduction was estimated about 15% because of the work hardening of welds.

The butt and lap configurational friction stir welding of type 304 stainless steel was conducted in this study. The sound joints were obtained by WC tool. As the welding distance increased, tool deformation gradually increased at the pin edge. The discoloration by oxidation was observed at the top surface of the joint, a sufficient heat-input was required to avoid the welding defect owing to the lack of stirring at the welding start point. Very fine grains were observed in the stir zone, and the grain coarsening was not observed in the heat affected zone.

This study describes energy and exergy analysis of the Maeeum-Ri Geothermal District Heating System(MGDHS) of Ganghwa Island, Incheon, Korea. Design data are used to assess the performance of the geothermal district heating system. Geothermal resources of MGDHS are found to be low quality with specific exergy index of 0.029. Exergy losses occur in the pumps and heat exchangers as well as in the geothermal Quid and direct discharge. As a result, the total exergy losses accounts for 5.2% in pumps, 47% in the discharge, and 3.3% in heat exchanger based on the total exergy input to the entire MGDHS. The overall energy and exergy efficiencies of the system are found to be 28.8% and 44.5%, respectively.

As a basic research for the automation of plate forming process, the theoretical aspect of plate bending by line heating was surveyed and numerical simulation of plate bonding deformation was performed using the 3-dimensional nonlinear transient thermal elasto-plastic finite element analysis. Analyzing the unsteady heat conduction problem of the flat steel plate under heat flux input by gas torch, the time history of 3-dimensional thermal distribution was obtained. Transient thermal deformation process of the plate was analyzed under the thermal loading. And the calculated results are investigated in detail.
