Frictional loss in turbulent regime is abnormally increased compared with in laminar regime. Thus the consideration of temperature rise across fluid film is significant in analysis and conventional isothermal theory loses its usefulness for performance prediction. This paper proposes to the three-dimensional thermohydrodynamic analysis of finite journal bearings operating under turbulent condition using two-equation model($\kappa-\varepsilon$ model) proposed by Hassid & Poreh. The equations are solved numerically by finite difference method. We make the analysis applicable even at large eccentricity when back flow of the lubricants occurs and axial flow is no longer ignored compared to circumferential flow.

Kinetics of grain growth in PLZT ceramics during isothermal heat treatment and hot-pressing were investigated and the published data on grain growth were reanalyzed. It was found, in many cases, that the errors were introduced by ignoring the initial grain size. The grain growth of PLZT ceramics was confirmed to follow the parabolic normal growth : D2-Do2=Kt.

Crystallisation kinetics of the erbium doped soda-tellurite glasses were studied using the differential thermal analysis (DTA) and differential scanning calorimetery (DSC) techniques. The DTA curves in the temperature range of 350 K to 650 K were obtained from isochronal heating rates, chosen in the range of 2 to 20 K/min. DSC isothermal curves were used to calculate the fraction of crystals formed on reheating. The apparent activation energies for devitrification were derived by measuring the shifts in the values of $T_g$ and $T_x$ with heating rates, using the Kissinger method. The derived values of apparent activation energies for isochronal and isothermal methods varied in the range of $190-204\;{\pm}\;5\;kJ\;mol^{-1}$. The X-ray powder diffraction analysis of heat treated and transparent samples showed the presence of nano-scale size sodium-tellurite crystals. These crystallites were found to have a strong influence on the full width of half maxima of the transition in $Er^{3+}:\;^4I_{13/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{15/2}$, which extended from 70 nm in the vitreous materials to 132 nm in glass-ceramic materials.

Appropriate thermo-mechanical properties of nickel-based superalloys are achieved by heat treatment, which induces precipitation and solid solution hardening; thus, information on the temperature ranges of precipitation and dissolution of the precipitates is essential for the determination of the heat treatment condition. In this study, thermal analyses of nickel-based superalloys were performed by differential scanning calorimetry method under conditions of various heating rates of 5, 10, 20, or 40K/min in a temperature range of 298~1573K. Precipitation and dissolution temperatures were determined by measuring peak temperatures, constructing trend lines, and extrapolating those lines to the zero heating rate to find the exact temperature under isothermal condition. Determined temperatures for the precipitation reactions were 813, 952, and 1062K. Determined onset, peak, and offset temperatures of the first dissolution reaction were 1302, 1388, and 1406K, respectively, and those values of the second dissolution reaction were 1405, 1414, and 1462K. Determined solvus temperature was 1462K. The study showed that it was possible to use a simple method to obtain accurate phase transition temperatures under isothermal condition.

A numerical analysis is carried out to study the two-dimensional steady state natural convection from vertical wires immersed in cold pure water. The surface of the wire is $0^{\circ}C$ unifrom temperature. Results of the analysis are presented for free stream temperature from $0^{\circ}C$ to $25^{\circ}C$ and the aspect ratio N from $5.26{\times}10^{-3}$ to $1.0{\times}10^{-3}$. The effects of the density extremum and aspect ratio on the flow pattern and the heat transfer characteristics are discussed As the aspect ratio N becomes larger, in the range of $1.0^{\circ}C{\leq}T_{\infty}{\leq}4.4^{\circ}C$ and $6{^{\circ}C}{\leq}T_{\infty}{\leq}17^{\circ}C$, the effect of Pr number on the heat transfer is shown to be more significant than the aspect ratio. Investigating into the effect of the density extremum on the heat transfer from wires, the new heat transfer correlations are suggested with the relation of average Nu mumber vs. modified Ra number. Here, the coefficient values C of correlations are presented as the function of density extremum parameter $R^*$. The effects of the density extremum parameter are also discussed.

A numerical method for analyzing non-isothermal plastic deformation of sheet metals has been developed and sheet tensile tests have been analyzed using a two-dimensional finite element formulation. A modified Bishop`s method is used to solve the thermoplasticity problem in decoupled form at each time step. The accuracy of the analysis is confirmed by comparison with experimental data. The uniform elongation is found is drop by 0.1 to 2.7% at moderate strain rates, while total elongation decreases upto 6.0% during tensile testing in air compared to the isothermal case. The effect of deformation heating, becomes more pronounced as necking develops and at higher testing speed.

The cure kinetics of a bisphenol A epoxy resin and polyoxypropylene diamine curing agent system are investigated in both dynamic and isothermal conditions by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). In dynamic experiments, the shift of exothermic peaks obtained at different heating rates is used to obtain activation energy of overall cure reaction based on the methods of Ozawa and Kissinger. Isothermal DSC data at different temperatures are fitted to an autocatalytic Kamal kinetic model. The kinetic model is in a good agreement with the experimental data in the initial stage of cure. A diffusion effect is incorporated to describe the later stage of cure, predicting the cure kinetics over the whole range of curing process. Also, dynamic mechanical analysis is performed to evaluate the storage modulus and average molecular weight between crosslinkages.

When lithium-ion batteries operate out of the proper temperature range, their performance can be significantly degraded and safety issues such as thermal runaway can occur. Therefore, battery thermal management systems are widely researched to maintain the temperature of Li-ion battery cells within the proper temperature range during the charging and discharging process. This study investigates the cooling performance and isothermal maintenance of cooling materials by measuring the surface temperature of a battery cell with or without cooling materials, such as silicone oil, thermal adhesive, and phase change materials during discharge process of battery by the experimental and numerical analysis. As a result of the experiment, the battery pack filled with phase change material showed a temperature reduction of 47.4 ℃ compared to the case of natural convection. It proves the advanced utility of the cooling unit using phase change material that is suitable for use in battery thermal management systems.

The effect of processing parameters, temperature, gas concentration, gas flow rate and pressure, were studied on the densification of carbon/carbon composites using a Robust design method in isothermal low-pressure chemical vapor infiltration with a gas system of $C_3H_8-N_2$ After one time of isothermal low-pressure chemical vapor infiltrat.ion, the bulk density of carbon/carbon composites in creased up to 1-9% and apparent porosity of the composites decreased down to 20-50%. ANOVA analysis of the experiment.al data revealed that the important parameters of isothermal lowpressure chemical vapor infiltration were temperature, gas concentration and gas flnw rate. 'There was almost no ~ f f e c t on densification by pressure and interaction between each parameters. In t, he present experimental conditions, the highest bulk density was obtained at $1100^{\circ}C$ temperature, 100% $C_3H_8$, concentration, 100 SCCM flow rate and 5 torr pressure.

Geocomposite mechanically bonded with woven type geotextile and nonwoven geotextile was used to examine to the long-term creep deformation behaviors by the SIM(Stepped Isothermal Method). The temperature steps were $26^{\circ}C$, $40^{\circ}C$, $54^{\circ}C$, $68^{\circ}C$, $82^{\circ}C$ and loading levels were 40%, 50%, 60% of designed strength for stepped isothermal method. Results of creep tests are showing that their strain were lower than 10% during 10,000 hours(GRI GS 10). Also, the effect of weft injection density to the creep deformation behaviors were examined. The weft densities of 0%, 50%, 100% of the original weft density showed the creep strain within 10% and the creep strain was increased with the decrease of weft injection density.
