The hot-stamping technique is used to manufacture high-strength parts by press forming by heating at a temperature above the Austenite transformation temperature and then rapid cooling. Boron steel, which contains a very small amount of boron, is one of the materials used for hot stamping. The purpose of this study is to show the microstructures and to investigate the mechanical properties under different heat-treatment conditions. The heat treatment of water quenching was conducted at the various temperatures and different elapsed times. These can be practical data useful when boron steels are used for hot stamping. Furthermore, the microstructures and mechanical properties of the spot-welded specimen with coatings and counterpart materials (SPRC 340, SPRC 590) is investigated in order to determine the welding characteristics of boron steel at different welding condition.

In this paper, it was studied how the critical speed which could occur hot judder due to disk temperature. Through the dynamometer experiment, we measured the critical velocity and surface temperature when the hot judder occur on the disk break. Also with the critical velocity theory equation and the temperature change graph of factors which used in the equation, we was induced experiment equation including theory equation and experiment values. And it has compared with the method which approach as linea. From this, we predicted the change of critical speed which could occur hot judder due to disk temperature. In addition, critical speed graph has compared with actual driving speed and disc temperature at a vehicle test. Therefore it was estimate to possibility of arising hot judder.

The PV modules are affected by heat. The hotter the PV module, the lower the power output, then the life time will be short. If the cell temperature rises above a certain limit the encapsulating materials can be damaged, and this will degrade the performance of the PV module. This is called the ‘hot spot’ formation. This paper presents that the PV module temperature can be estimated by using a thermal analysis program, and demonstrates the thermal characteristics of the PV module.

The resistance spot welding of high strength steel degrades the weldability because of its high strength with rich chemical composition and coating layer to protect from corrosion. During the each resistance welding process the electrodes tip reacts with coating layer, then subsequently deteriorates and shorten electrode life. In this study, the Al-coated HPF (Hot Press Forming) steels and Zn-coated TRIP steels were used to investigate the electrode life for resistance spot welding. Experimental results show that the reactivity of Al-coating on HPF steels to electrode tip surface behaviors different from the conventional Zn-coated high strength steels. The electrode tip diameter and nugget size in electrode life test of Al-coated HPF steels are observed to be constant with respect to weld numbers. For Al-coated HPF steels, the hard aluminum oxide layer being formed during high temperature heat treatment process reduces reactivity with copper electrode during the resistance welding process. Eventually, the electrode life in resistance spot welding of Al-coated HPF steels has the advantage over the galvanized steel sheets.

The main research content of this paper is to evaluate the structural integrity and the cooling performance of 4250 kVA power transformer with ONAN(Oil Natural and Air Natural) mode. The dynamic analysis is used to verify the structural safety of the transformer by seismic loading. The transformer structure is simplified and NX software is used to build a three-dimensional model, and ANSYS commercial software is used to calculate the stress and deformation by applying corresponding load. The analysis result was evaluated whether it satisfies the design requirements according to the IEEE Std 693 standard. In terms of thermal analysis to evaluate the cooling performance, the thermal physical model is used to calculate the heat exchange between the radiator and the tank in the steady state, and the result is input into the Fluent software to calculate the internal temperature field of the transformer tank, which reduces the calculation cost of thermal fluid. Comparing the simulated hot spot temperature and top oil temperature of the transformer with the calculation results of the IEC60076 classic model, it is found that the error is only 1.9%.

Recently, an analysis of 3-micron spectra of CH4 line emission from our Gemini/GNIRS observations of Jupiter's polar regions yielded an unexpected result: The homopause (~1 microbar pressure level) located directly above the long-lasting 8-micron CH4 north-polar hot spot (Great 8-micron Hot Spot: GHS) is cool compared with the temperatures of nearby auroral regions (Kim et al. 2017). Most of the 8-micron emission of the GHS originates from CH4 at the ~1 mbar level (i.e., deeper in the stratosphere, where cooling time is several years), much longer than at the altitude of the homopause. We propose a mechanism to explain the temperature difference: locally-fixed and transient, but energetic auroral particles, which can penetrate to the 1 mbar level and deposit energy there creating and maintaining the GHS. For Saturn, thus far we have not detected distinctive 8-micron nor 3-micron CH4 hot spots in the polar regions. We will present a possible implication for this difference between Jupiter and Saturn.

For the analysis of the optical characteristics of electrodeless lamps, all the lamp surface temperatures have been treated the same. However, the interpretation of optical properties in this way has not been sufficient in terms of accuracy. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we divided the inside of the bulb into two parts, hot spot and cold spot, and analyzed the density difference of mercury by different temperatures. Here, it is assumed that the distribution of temperature and density is linear. The effect of optical characteristics through redistribution of hot spot and cold spot density was analyzed. It was also confirmed that the ratio of the density of the redistributed discharge gas has a great influence on the saturation of the optical characteristics. Therefore, it is proved that the design method through the domestic setting is very useful in the actual design, and the method for shortening the time for stabilizing the optical characteristics is obtained.

In this paper, an I-V characteristics of bypass diode has been studied by counting the shading effect in photovoltaic module. The shadow induces hot spot phenomenon in PV module due to the increase of resistance in the current path. Two different types of PV module with and without bypass diode were fabricated to expect maximum output power with an increasing shading rate of 5 % on the solar cell. Temperature distribution is also detected by shading the whole solar cell for the outdoor test. From the result, the bypass diode works properly over 60 % of shading per cell with constant output power. Maximum power generation in case of solar cell being totally shaded with bypass diode decreases 41.3 % compared with the one under STC(Standard Test Condition). On the other hand, the maximum output power of the module without bypass diode gradually decreases by showing hot spot phenomenon with the increase of shading ratio on the cell and finally indicates 95.5 % of power loss compared with the output under STC. Finally the module temperature measured increases around $10^{\circ}C$ higher than that under STC due to hot-spots which come from the condition without bypass diode. It has been therefore one of the main reasons for degrading the PV module and shortening the durability of the PV system.

In this paper, we studied the shadow effect which is one of environmental cause for hot-spot phenomenon on PV by considering electrical effects. We fabricated PV module in case of existence and nonexistence of bypass diode. And maximum output power and thermal distribution was analyzed by shadowing solar cell by increase of 5%. From the results, the PV module's(without bypass diode) maximum output power was reduced by hot-spot gradually. But the PV module's(with bypass diode) maximum output power had no reduction by operation of bypass diode, though solar cell is shadowed more than 60%. The solar cell temperature of PV module(without bypass diode) was $10^{\circ}C$ higher compared to module's one. This is a reason for shortening of durability of PV module.

The purpose of this study is to propose a ventilation corridor management plan to improve the thermal environment for Busan Metropolitan City. To this end, the characteristics of hot and cool spots in Busan were identified by conducting spatial statistical analysis, and thermal image data from Landsat-7 satellites and major ventilation corridors were analyzed through WRF meteorological simulation. The results showed the areas requiring thermal environment improvement among hot spot areas were Busanjin-gu, Dongnae-gu, industrial areas in Yeonje-gu and Sasang-gu, and Busan Port piers in large-scale facilities. The main ventilation corridor was identified as Geumjeongsan Mountain-Baekyangsan Mountain-Gudeoksan Mountain Valley. Based on the results, the ventilation corridor management strategy is suggested as follows. Industrial facilities and the Busan Port area are factors that increase the air temperature and worsen the thermal environment of the surrounding area. Therefore, urban and architectural plans are required to reduce the facility's temperature and consider the ventilation corridor. Areas requiring ventilation corridor management were Mandeok-dong and Sajik-dong, and they should be managed to prevent further damage to the forests. Since large-scale, high-rise apartment complexes in areas adjacent to forests interfere with the flow of cold and fresh air generated by forests, the construction of high-rise apartment complexes near Geumjeongsan Mountain with the new redevelopment of Type 3 general residential area should be avoided. It is expected that the results of this study can be used as basic data for urban planning and environmental planning in response to climate change in Busan Metropolitan City.
