This paper is a study of recovery under load process of superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). SFCL consists of five parallel-connected high-temperature superconductor (HTS) tapes additionally stabilized by stainless tape. Previously, HTS was heated by current pulse to simulate a short circuit in a power grid. During the cooling period, the current amplitude decreased to 23% or less of HTS critical current value, which is the simulation of network re-switching. When HTS with a polymer coating is cooled, temperature gradient on thermal insulation layer occurs, that prevents a boiling crisis and improves the heat sink into liquid nitrogen. Two samples are coated with a 30 ㎛ and 50 ㎛ polylactide (PLA) layers, reference sample has no polymer coating on it. Samples with a polymer coating show 3-5 times faster cooling than the reference one.

This study analyzes the thermal effects on the performance of an air foil thrust bearing (AFTB) using COMSOL Multiphysics to approximate actual bearing behavior under real conditions. An AFTB is a sliding-thrust bearing that uses air as a lubricant to support the axial load. The AFTB consists of top and bump foils and supports the rotating disk through the hydrodynamic pressure generated by the wedge effect from the inclined surface of the top foil and the elastic deformation of the bump foils, similar to a spring. The use of air as a lubricant has some advantages such as low friction loss and less heat generation, enabling air bearings to be widely used in high-speed rotating systems. However, even in AFTB, the effects of energy loss due to viscosity at high speeds, interface frictional heat, and thermal deformation of the foil caused by temperature increase cannot be ignored. Foil deformation derived from the thermal effect influences the minimum decay in film thickness and enhances the film pressure. For these reasons, performance analyses of isothermal AFTBs have shown few discrepancies with real bearing behavior. To account for this phenomenon, a thermal-fluid-structure analysis is conducted to describe the combined mechanics. Results show that the load capacity under the thermal effect is slightly higher than that obtained from isothermal analysis. In addition, the push and pull effects on the top foil and bump foil-free edges can be simulated. The differences between the isothermal and thermal behaviors are discussed.

A PEMFC system model for FCEV was constructed and simulated numerically to examine the heat/water flow of the system and air/fuel humidification process for various operation conditions (ambient pressure /temperature/humidity, operating temperature, power load). We modeled PEMFC stack which can generate maximum electricity of about 80 kW. This stack consists of 400 unit cells and each unit cell has $250cm^2$ reacting area. Uniform current density and uniform operating voltage per each cell was assumed. The results show the flow characteristics of heat and water at each component of PEMFC system in macro-scale. The capacity shortage of the radiator occurred when the ambient was hot $(over\;40^{\circ}C)$ and power level was high (over 50 kW). In spite of some heat release by evaporation of water in stack, heat unbalance reached to 20kW approximately in such a severe operating condition. This heat unbalance could be recovered by auxiliary radiators or high speed cooling fan with additional cost. In cold environment, the capacity of radiator exceeded the net heat generation to be released, which may cause a problem to drop the operating temperature of stack. We dealt with this problem by regulating mass flow rate of coolant and radiator fan speed. Finally, water balance was not easily broken when we retrieved condensed and/or unused water.

The collimator is one of the high-heat-flux components used to avoid a series of vacuum and thermal problems. In this paper, the heat load distribution throughout the collimator is first calculated through experimental data, and a transient thermodynamic simulation analysis of the original model is carried out. The error of the pipe outlet temperature between the simulated and experimental values is 1.632%, indicating that the simulation result is reliable. Second, the model is optimized to improve the heat transfer performance of the collimator, including the contact mode between the pipe and the flange, the pipe material and the addition of a twisted tape in the pipe. It is concluded that the convective heat transfer coefficient of the optimized model is increased by 15.381% and the maximum wall temperature is reduced by 16.415%; thus, the heat transfer capacity of the optimized model is effectively improved. Third, to adapt the long-pulse steady-state operation of the experimental advanced superconducting Tokamak (EAST) in the future, steady-state simulations of the original and optimized collimators are carried out. The results show that the maximum temperature of the optimized model is reduced by 37.864% compared with that of the original model. The optimized model was changed as little as possible to obtain a better heat exchange structure on the premise of ensuring the consumption of the same mass flow rate of water so that the collimator can adapt to operational environments with higher heat fluxes and long pulses in the future. These research methods also provide a reference for the future design of components under high-energy and long-pulse operational conditions.

The strength of steel material in a concrete filled steel tube (CFT) is reduced in fire, but the filled interior concrete structurally ensures the fire resistance due to its high thermal capacity. More, the contractibility of CFT is excellent since it can be constructed without form work. This research analyzed the interior concrete strength and deformation characteristics, which are the influence factors of the fire resistance of CFT, in proportion to the axial load ratio. The fire resistance performance according to changes of the axial load ratio showed great fluctuation. As $280{\times}280{\times}6$ CFT columns with the concrete strengths of 24 MPa and 40 MPa and the axial load ratios of 0.9, 0.6, and 0.2 in accordance with KS F 2257-1 and 7 were heated with loading to examine the fire resistance performance, the 24 MPa concrete exhibited the fire resistance time as 27, 113, and 180 minutes for the axial load ratios, 0.9, 0.6, and 0.2 respectively. In case of 40 MPa concrete, the fire resistance time were turned out to be 19 and 28 minutes for the axial load ratios, 0.9 and 0.6 respectively. The results of 40 MPa concrete showed the much lower fire resistance performance when comparing with those of 24 MPa concrete. The fire resistance performance was not increased significantly when the axial load ratio was reduced. Therefore, the deceased fire resistance performance of high strength concrete is assumed to be caused by the internal pressure increase upon the heat application.

하절기 줄어드는 온수부하는 태양열 집열기 과열의 주된 원인이다. 과열방지목적으로 공냉 또는 차단막이 사용되는데 이는 추가적인 기계적요소를 필요하게 되고 장기 운용 시 파손 등의 우려에 따라 그 신뢰도도 크게 저하된다. 지중열교환기는 지열을 열원으로 방열 또는 흡열을 진행하는데, 지열을 고 열원으로 하여 흡열을 목적으로 하는 연구가 대다수이며 지열원이 저열원으로 이용하는 방열에 대한 연구는 부족한 편이다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 태양열집열판의 과열방지를 목적으로 하는 지중열교환기의 가능성 및 그 성능에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 여름철 최대 $150^{\circ}C$이상의 고온을 유지하는 태양열집열판의 열을 방출하기 위하여 1.2m의 하부 깊이를 갖는 50m 나선형 지중열교환기를 설치하였고 이를 통해 순간 냉각이 가능한 것으로 확인되었으며, 태양열집열판의 여름철 과열에 의한 파손을 방지할 수 있었다. 그리고 다양한 변수에 대한 이론적인 계산을 통하여 0.33kg/s의 최저 순환유량만 유지해주면 지열 열교환기의 길이에 따른 방열효과에 큰 영향을 미치지 않음을 판단할 수 있다. 또한 축열조와의 공동 사용시 냉각효과는 여름철 과열시 충분한 과열방지 제어가 가능한 것으로 조사되었다.

In this study, the ultra high strength concrete which have 100, 150, 200MPa took the heat from 20℃ to 70 0℃ and the 0, 20% stress in normal condition's to evaluate stress-strain, residual compressive strength and thermal expansion deformation were evaluated. The heating speed of specimen was 0.77℃/min 20~50℃, 50℃ before the target temperature, and the other interval's heating speed was 1℃/min. As a result, the stress-strain curve of non-load specimen showed the liner behavior at high temperature when the specimen's strength increased more. If ultra high strength concrete got loads, its compressive strength tended to decrease different from the normal strength concrete. The thermal expansion deformation was expanded from a vitrification of quartz over 500℃. however, over the 600℃, it was shrinked because of the dehydration of the combined water.

The wear characteristics and wear mechanisms in TiN coating deposited on high speed steel and alloy tool steel by ion plating were investigated. Pin on V-block wear tester was used for a wear test method. The specimen was composed of three kinds of high speed steel and alloy tool steel which had different hardness by changing the heat treating condition. Three kinds of coating thickness were also applied to each specimen. Microscopic observation of worn surfaces was made by SEM. The scratch test of coating surface by the ion plating showed that critical load to break the coating interface was greater than 50N. The critical load increased with both substrate hardness and coating thickness. The wear resistance of TiN coated high speed steel became 10 times greater than that of non-coated ones. SEM observation showed that leading edge of contact was compressive and trailing edge was under maximum tensile stress and then surface cracking broke out perpendicular to sliding direction.

본 연구에서는 분당복합화력발전소의 축열조 증설과 이에 따른 운영 방식 최적화를 통해 예상되는 온실가스 감축 효과에 대한 방법론과 정량화를 기술하였다. 분당복합화력은 일산, 안양, 부천복합화력과 함께 복합화력과 열공급 전용 지역난방발전소의 중간 형태이다. 이는 자체 운전 모드 변경을 통해 복합화력 기능인 전력만을 공급하는 것과 지역난방 기능의 전력 및 열을 동시 공급하는 운전 형태 변환이 가능하다는 의미이다. 따라서 축열조를 증설함으로써 고효율 모드인 전력 및 열을 동시 생산하는 열병합 발전과 전력 피크 부하를 위한 복합발전으로의 운전전환을 통해 전력 및 열공급시장의 요구량에 유연성 있게 대처할 수는 공급능력을 가지게 된다. 본 연구는 분당복합화력의 최근 3년(2008~2010년) 운전실적과 각 운전모드별 운전효율은 설계치를 사용하여 계산하였으며, 그 결과 증설된 축열조에 공급되는 축열량 1 Gcal당 GHG 감축 효과는 $97.95kg_{-}CO_2/Gcal$로 연간 약 $13,500Ton_{-}CO_2$의 감축 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

점토, 규석, 장석을 사용하여 만든 전통생활도자기는 주 결정상이 mullite와 cristobalite이다. Mullite 결정은 제품의 강도를 좋게 하지만 열팽창계수가 5.3 × 10^-6/℃로 비교적 커서 내열 도자기로는 사용할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 산청토와 장수곱돌 sludge를 사용하여 도자기 내에 mullite 결정 대신 열팽창 계수가 2.6 × 10^-6/℃인 cordierite 결정이 생성되게 함으로써 가벼운 내열 도자기를 개발하고자 하였다. 그 결과 산청토 80 wt%, 장수곱돌 sludge 20 wt%를 사용하여 만든 도자기가 내열성이 좋고 강도와 하중연화도 우수하였으며, 부피비중도 1.7 8로 기존의 분청사기보다 가벼웠다.
