High-aspect-ratio(max. 12.5) microchannels with excellent surface quality and good shape uniformity have been realized utilizing laser-induced etching technique. Etch width and depth variations depend largely upon process variables such as laser power and etchant concentration. Etchant concentration in association with viscosity also influence on the cross-sectional profile of the channels. The optimum process conditions for the fabrication of high-aspect-ratio microchannels applicable to micro thermal devices are demonstrated.

Ultrasonic guided wave techniques have been widely used for long range nondestructive detection in tube-like structures. The present paper investigates the ultrasonic linear and nonlinear parameters for evaluating the thermal damage in aluminum pipe. Specimens were subjected to thermal loading. Flexible polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) comb transducers were used to generate and receive the ultrasonic waves. The second harmonic wave generation technique was used to check the material nonlinearity change after different heat loadings. The conventional linear ultrasonic approach based on attenuation was also used to evaluate the thermal damages in specimens. The results show that the proposed experimental setup is viable to assess the thermal damage in an aluminum pipe. The ultrasonic nonlinear parameter is a promising candidate for the prediction of micro-damages in a tube-like structure.

In the study, we have developed a straightening system for 304 micro wires that are normally used in the medical and semi-conductor fields. To apply heat to the micro wires, we introduced the direct wire heating method which generates the thermal energy by the electrical resistance of the wire itself. To avoid the deterioration of the wire surface by the environment, such as the oxidation or the hydration, the $N_2$ gas was filled in the glass pipe in which the straightening process was being performed. A precision tension meter was also attached to control the tension of the wire during the heating and straightening process. In order to control the straightening process, several experimental investigations with varying the tension, the feeding velocity and the temperature (current) was carried out. As a result of experiments, we obtained the optimal processing conditions satisfying the straightness requirement of the micro wires.

초기 재령의 매스콘크리트는 양생과정에서 높은 온도를 유발한다. 수화열 저감 기법 중 내부구속이 지배적인 구조물에서 단면의 내외부 온도차를 관리하는 방식은 그 활용도가 매우 높다. 그러나 수화 균열을 예방하기위해 열경사를 조절하는 현재의 제한적인 방법은 콘크리트 중심과 표면 사이에 미세하거나 거대한 균열을 유발할 수 있다. 특히 냉각파이프를 이용하는 방법은 온도의 상승시에는 적용될 수 있지만, 내외부 온도차이가 심한 온도하강시의 대책으로는 적합하지 않다. 따라서 이 문제에 대한 해결방안으로 가열파이프를 동시에 사용하는 모델을 제안하여 유한요소법으로 해석하였다. 해석 결과, 제안된 냉각파이프와 가열파이프를 동시에 사용하는 방법이 열경사조절에 가장 효과적이며 이를 통해 온도균열을 효과적으로 제어할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

캡슐형 잠열재를 이용한 열저장 시스템은 바닥 난방 및 건물 난방에서 매우 효과적인 시스템이다. 이러한 시스템 개발에 필수적인 요소가 열유동 매체가 순환하는 파이프 주변의 캡슐내 온도 분포와 열유동 매체의 유량 등이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 3차원 비정상 상태에서 Navier-Stokes 방정식, 난류모델을 비롯한 스칼라 보존 방정식을 적용하여 캡슐 블록의 온도 분포 및 파이프 내의 유동장 해석을 수행하였다. 또한 본 연구와 같이 계산 영역이 특별한 기하학적 현상을 형상(circle+square)인 문제 해결하는데 적용할 수 있는 새로운 격자 생성 기술(MBFGE/CCM)을 개발하였다. 격자계는 파이프에서 원형 격자를 이용하였고, 캡슐 블록에서 사각 격자를 이용하여 다중격자와 미세격자를 결합하여 사용하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 컴퓨터를 이용한 수치해석적 방법을 미세 캡슐을 이용한 축열보드에 적용하여 2종류의 열경계 상태에 대하여 속도와 온도분포를 계산하여 비교분석을 하는 것이다. 온도는 축열 보드의 한 쪽면은 대류면이고 다른 한쪽면은 단열면인 경우(Case 2)보다 양면 모두 단열인 경우(Case 1)일 때 더 높게 상승하였다. 온수 파이프 중심선인 Y=0 에 가까운 영역에서 Case 1과 Case 2사이에 축열 보드 내에서 온도 차이는 확연하게 나타났다. 향후 수치해석의 정확도를 높이고 축열 보드의 열전달 현상을 보다 정확히 계산하기 위해서는 위치 및 시간에 따른 정밀한 온도 측정값이 필요하고 특히 잠열재인 미세 캡슐이 상변화를 하므로 온도 변화에 따른 물질의 비열(C$_{p}$)과 열전달율(λ)을 고려한 방정식이 요구된다.
