An experimental apparatus to show the hot spot cooling of an IC chip using a thermoelectric cooler is developed. The spot heating in very small area is achieved by the applying CO$_2$ laser source and temperatures are measured using miniature thermocouples. The active effects of thermoelectric cooler on the hot spot cooling system such as rapid heat spreading in the chip and lowering the peak temperature around the hot spot region are investigated. The experimental results are simulated numerically using the TAS program, which the performance characteristics such as Seebeck coefficient, electrical resistance and thermal conductivity of the thermoelectric cooler are searched by trial and error. Good agreements are obtained between numerical and experimental results if the appropriate performance data of the thermoelectric cooler are given.

Macroscopic hot spots formed due to the large thermal gradients at the surface of the disc brake rotor, make the rotor to fail or wear out early. Thermo-elastic deformation results in contact concentration, leading to the non uniform distribution of temperature making the disc susceptible to hot spot formation. The formation of one hot spot event will predispose the system to future hot spotting at the same location. This leads to the complete thermo-elastic instability in the disc brakes; multitude parameters are responsible for the thermo elastic instability. The predominant factor is the sliding velocity and above a certain sliding velocity the instability of the brake system occurs and hot spots is formed in the surface of the disc brake. Commercial finite element package ABAQUS(R) is used to find the temperature distribution and the result is validated using Rowson's analytical model. A coupled analysis methodology is evolved for the automotive disc brake from the transient thermo-elastic contact analysis. Temperature variation is studied under different sliding speeds within the operation range.

In this paper, degradation in field-aged PV modules including degradation of interconnect, discoloration of encapsulant and hot spot have been observed and analyzed. From the results, photovoltaic module installed for 6 years shows around 16 % drop of electrical properties due to the interconnect degradation and PV module passed 18 years has been found to drop of around 20 % mainly by the encapsulant discoloration. Furthermore the difference between low and high temperature of PV array at hot spot goes up to 3$0^{\circ}C$ and it leads to interconnect degradation. On the other hands, the temperature difference was observed to be around 15$^{\circ}C$ at the encapsulant discoloration spot of PV array.

The dissipation of high-power ultrasonic energy at the faces of the defect causes an increase in temperature. It is resulted from localized selective heating in the vicinity of cracks because of the friction effect. In this paper the measurement of size and direction of crack using UET(Ultrasound Excitation Thermography) is described. The ultrasonic pulse energy is injected into the sample in one side. The hot spot, which is a small area around the crack tip and heated up highly, is observed. The hot spot, which is estimated as the starting point of the crack, is seen in the nearest position from the ultrasonic excitation point. Another ultrasonic pulse energy is injected into the sample in the opposite side. The hot spot, the ending point of the crack, is seen in the closest distance from the injection point also. From the calculation of the coordinates of both the first hot spot and the second hot spot observed, the size and slope of the crack is estimated. In the experiment of STS fatigue crack specimen(thickness 14mm), the size and the direction of the crack was measured.

This study aims for the optimization of process conditions in a fixed-bed catalytic reactor system with a circulating molten salt bath, in which partial oxidation of propylene to acrolein takes place. Two-dimensional pseudo-homogeneous model is adopted with estimation of suitable parameters and its validity is corroborated by comparing simulation result with experimental data. The temperature of the molten salt and the feed composition are found to exercise significant influence on the yield of acrolein and the magnitude of hot spot. The temperature of the molten salt is usually kept constant. This study, however, suggests that the temperature of the molten salt must be axially adjusted so that the abrupt peak of hot spot should not appear near the reactor entrance. The yield of acrolein is maximized and the position and the magnitude of hot spot are optimized by the method of the iterative dynamic programming (IDP).

도시인구 증가와 이에 따른 급격한 도시화는 도시 내 여러 열환경 문제를 수반한다. 이를 효과적으로 대응하기 위해 hot Spot 분석과 같은 도심 열환경 모니터링이 필요시 된다. 본 연구는 우리나라 세종특별자치시의 14개의 동과 주변 행정구역을 연구지역으로 선정하여 2013년부터 2018년 여름철의 도시 확장에 따른 지표면 온도 변화 특성을 분석하였다. Landsat 8 지표면온도와 KOMPSAT2/3 기반 NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)및 NDBI(Normalized Difference Built-up Index)를 이용하여 연구 지역의 지표면 온도 분포를 모의하고, 도심지 확장에 따른 지표면 온도 변화 양상을 구축된 NDVI와 NDBI를 이용해 논의했다. 특히, 연구지역 안에서의 도심지 확장이 뚜렷한 지역을 연구 대상으로 선정하여 고해상도의 KOMPSAT영상으로 지역 내 hot spot의 변화 원인을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 연구지역 내에서 도시화가 진행된 지역에 hot spot이 나타나는 것을 확인하였으며 일반적으로 NDVI가 낮거나 NDBI가 높을수록 hot spot의 영향이 뚜렷하고 온도가 높게 나타나는 것으로 확인되었다. 지표면온도와 위성기반 산출물을 이용해 도시화가 지속적으로 진행된 지역과 급격하게 나타난 지역이 구분되었으며 토지피복에 따른 상이한 특성도 파악할 수 있었다. 도시화에 따른 지표면 온도 변화가 뚜렷한 지역에 본 연구와 같이 고해상도의 KOMPSAT 영상을 통한 분석이 수반되면 향후 도시계획 및 정책 활용에 효과적으로 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study was performed to investigate the change of the body surface temperature during socialization of weaning pigs. A total of 108 piglets (Landrace 60 and Yorkshire 48) aged 31 (${\pm}1.1$) day was used for this study. Experiment was designed as follows; familiar group (T1), randomly mixed with unfamiliar piglets (T2), mixed based on weight of unfamiliar piglet (T3). The transport and mixing of pigs were performed at 10:00, and then body surface temperature was taken by thermo-graphic camera after 4 hours (14:00). Average surface temperature and hot-spot-temperature, which is the hottest spot of the body surface, were analyzed using Testo IRsoft 3.1 software. Average temperature of body surface were 36.0, 38.2, and 37.5 in T1, T2, and T3, respectively. Average of body surface temperature in T2 and T3 were higher (p<0.001) than T1, and average temperature of body surface of T3 was greater (p<0.001) than that of T2. The hot-spot-temperature of T1, T2, and T3 were 38.7, 39.5, and 39.6, respectively. The hot-spot-temperature of T2 (p<0.01) and T3 (p<0.001) were significantly higher than that of T1. Above results demonstrate that grouping unfamiliar pigs leads to increase in the body temperature possibly by pigs aggressive behavior during social conflict. By the result on average body temperature, this study suggests that the mixing with similar body weight would increase the struggle time and frequency.

This paper presents the thermally induced hot spot characteristics of rubbing surface in the friction pad disk brake. During the braking period, the rubbing surface with irregular asperities that are strongly engaged in rough surface, wear, and deformed surface due to a friction heating may produce an irregular distorted geometry of the disk surface. The tribological interactions between the disk and the pads are unstable if the contact stress is severe, in which the irregularity develops the contact pressure distribution, leading eventually to localized contact, high temperature and formation of hot spots. The computed results of contact spots that are simulated using a coupled thermal-mechanical analysis present sinusoidal distortions and localized extrusions of the disk surface, which are strongly related to a hot spot in the practical disk brake.

Infrared thermography using high-speed infrared camera has been recognized as a powerful method for various potential applications, such as nondestructive inspection, failure analysis, stress analysis, and medical fields, due to non-contact, high-speed, and high spatial resolution at various temperature ranges. In this investigation, damage evolution due to generation of hot spots on railway brake disc was investigated using the infrared thermography method. A high-speed infrared camera was used to measure the surface temperature of brake disc as well as for in-situ monitoring of hot spot evolution. From the thermographic images, the observed hot spots and thermal damage of railway brake disc during braking operation were qualitatively analyzed. Moreover, in this investigation, the previous experimental and theoretical studies on hot spots phenomenon were reviewed, and the current experimental results were introduced and compared with theoretical prediction.
