In this paper, effective thermal conductivities of water-based Al203-nanofluids with low concentration from 0.01 vol. % to 0.3 vol. % are experimentally obtained by transient hot wire method (THWM). The water-based Al203-nanofluids are manufactured by two-step method which is widely used. To examine suspension and dispersion characteristics of the water-based A1203-nanofluids, Zeta potential as well as transmission electron micrograph (TEM) is observed. We confirm the manufactured Al203-nanofluids have good suspension and dispersion. The effective thermal conductivities of the water-based Al203-nanofluids with low concentration are enhanced up to 1.64% compared with that of DI water at $21^{\circ}C$. In addition, experimental results are compared with theoretical results from Jang and Choi model.

In the present work, a new freeze protection method has been proposed for a natural circulation system of solar water heater. Though electrothermal wire is popularly used for the purpose, there are freezing troubles by wire cut-off and shortage of excessive electric power consumption. In the experimental device, hot water in storage tank was used to heat the outlet pipe from the tank if the pipe surface temperature falls lower than a set point. The cold water pipe to the storage tank was installed to directly contact the hot water pipe surface temperature rose by transferred heat.

In the present work, a new freeze protection method has been proposed for a natural circulation system of solar water heater. Though electrothermal wire is popularly used for the purpose, there are freezing troubles by wire cut-off and excessive electric power consumption. In the experimental device, hot water in a storage tank was circulated by a small pump and used to heat the outdoor pipes if the cold water pipe surface temperature falls lower than a set point. As a result, It was observed that there was no hot water waste while the solar water heating system operated without freeze and burst.

소형 무인항공기 추진용 덕티드 팬의 실험적 연구가 수행되었다. 이 논문에서는 덕티드 팬의 입구, 로터 뒤, 스테이터 뒤에서 허브에서 팁 방향으로 $45^{\circ}$ 경사 열선으로 측정하여 비정상 3차원 유동 특성을 연구하였다. 경사열선 요각을 고정시켜 데이터를 획득하였다. 이 데이터는 위상평균기법을 이용하여 평균되었다. 이 데이터는 Newton-Rhapson 수치해법을 통하여 3개의 비선형 연립방정식을 풀었다. 축 방향, 반경 방향 그리고 원주 방향 속도의 윤곽을 통해 팁 후류, 이차유동 그리고 팁 누설유동과 같은 유동 특성을 확인 하였다.

It was noted by the several researchers that the voltage outputs in response to a single yawed hot-wire sensor in a flow perpendicular to the axis deviate from the theoretical voltage output by King's law and Jorgensen's relation. This study noticed that the calibration coefficients of original Grande's method are not constant and fairly sensitive to the radial angle (${\alpha}_{R}$). For more accuracy, this study interpolated the parameters of the Grande relation as a function of radial angle and compared velocity components with ones by Jorgensen and original Grande relation in the calibration jet flow. Finally, as a test case, 3-dimensional turbulent flows of the inlet plane of 180 degree bend are measured and compared the velocity components by above three methods and showed the characteristics of the flows.

This paper is studied to investigate the effect of slits and swirl vanes on the development of turbulent flow fields in gun-type gas burner with a cone type baffle plate because this gas burner is generally composed of eight slits and swirl vanes. All of turbulent characteristics including mean velocities were measured in the horizontal plane and cross section by using X-type hot-wire probe from hot-wire anemometer system. This experiment is carried out at flow rate 450 l/min in the test section of subsonic wind tunnel. Slits cause the fast jets, and then they have the characteristic that the flow is not adequately spread to radial direction and has long flow length and very small flow velocity distribution in the central part. On the contrary, swirl vanes does not have long enough for adequate flow length to downstream because the rotational flow diffuses remarkably to radial direction. However, the suitable arrangement between slits and swirl vanes causes effective flow width and flow length, and then it promotes fast flow mixing over the entire region including central part to increase turbulence more largely and effectively. Therefore, it is thought as a very desirable design method in gun-type gas burner to locate slits on the outside of swirl vanes.

In order to apply the design method of diagonal flow fan based on axial flow design to the design of radial-outflow type diagonal flow fan which has lower specific speed of 600-700 [$min^{-1}$, $m^3/min$, m], radial-outflow type diagonal flow fan which specific speed was 670 [$min^{-1}$, $m^3/min$, m] was designed by a quasi three-dimensional design method. Experimental investigations were conducted by fan characteristics test, flow surveys by a five-hole probe and a hot wire probe. Fan characteristics test agreed well with the design values. In the flow survey at rotor outlet, the characteristic region was observed. Two flow phenomena are considered as the cause of the characteristic region, one is tip leakage vortex near rotor tip and another is pressure surface separation on the rotor blade.

This paper concerns the measurement of thermal conductivity of grouting materials for ground loop heat exchanger. A thermal conductivity meter, QTM-500 based on modified transient hot wire method was used to measure the thermal conductivity of neat bentonite and mixtures of bentonite and various additives. Relative to the total mixture mass, as the percent additive was increased the mixture thermal conductivity increased. For the bentonite-silica sand mixtures, the higher density of the sand particles resulted in much higher mixture thermal conductivity. The quartzite and silica sands produced the largest increases in mixture thermal conductivity, while common masonry and limestone sands produced lower thermal conductivity increases.

Non-steady hot wire method was adopted to measure thermal coductivity of paraffin wax in the phases of liquid and solid for the utilization of thermal energy storage. The instrument was tested with the measurement of thermal conductivity of water at various temperatures. The reproducibility of the instrumetn was found to be ${\pm}2%$, in which the results for water agree with the literature values. The thermal conductivity of paraffin wax varies from 0.177 W/m C to 0.236 W/m C when the phase changes from liquid to solid near the melting temperature.

This paper reports the characteristics of the three dimensional turbulent flow in the rectangular-sectioned 180 degree bends by Hot-wire anemometer. Grande and Kool proposed a cooling law for the measurements of the flow through the narrow passage. The authors noticed that the calibration coefficients of original method are not constant and fairly sensitive to the flow approaching angle. Measured voltages are converted to three velocity and six Reynolds stress components using the modified method in which the coefficients are treated as a function of approaching angle.
