A compact air-preheating type heat exchanger was developed and tested for the ultra-high temperature heat recovery applications. For the direct use of exhaust gases up to $1200^{\circ}C$, the heat exchanger adopted a ceramic core with high strength and low thermal expansion coefficient less than $1{\times}10^{-6}^{\circ}C^{-1}$. The ceramic core was fabricated by special extrusion and bonding techniques. To minimize thermal stresses in the core, spring-loaded sealing mechanism was designed and successfully installed. 1-pass air flow scheme was adopted for the compactness and cost-savings. The pressure test for the ceramic core showed no failure under 35 kPa and less than 3% leak under 7 kPa. Flue gas simulation system was developed to investigate the performance of the heat exchanger. The test results showed normal operations of the heat exchanger up to $1200^{\circ}C$ of exhaust gases and relatively high heat recovery efficiencies of 31～39% depending upon exhaust gas temperatures..

Bunker C fuel oil may be taken as a conc. solution of asphalt as a solute. It may be assumpt that there will be unalogical relationship between cone. solution and solute in regological behavior. Investigation was carried out to fiud out the -opitimum preheating temperature. The following results were obtained: the colloidal structure bunker C fuel oil undergoes a transition at around the softening point of the solute asphalt: and the flow charactor changes from non-Newtonian flow to Newtonian as well as its activation energy is memarkably reduced at around softening point of the solute asphalt for the purpose of the improvement of flow charater of Bunker C fuel oil, the preheating must be done above the softening point of a solute asphalt.

The characteristics of the catalytically supported thermal combustion with Pd-based catalyst using the bench scale high pressure combustor has been investigated up to 7 atm. The emission of $NO_{\chi}$ depends on the preheating temperature and the excess air ratio. Most $NO_{\chi}$ emission seems to come from the pre-burner for the preheating of the inlet gas. Decreasing excess air ratio in the inlet gas below 1.5 results in the stable catalytically supported thermal combustion in the post combustion region while the $NO_{\chi}$ emission increased up to 15 ppm. Further, the increase of the pressure shows the dramatic increase of the emission CO and THC. However, the $NO_{\chi}$ emission decreased slightly due to the lower combustion temperature at the high pressure.

The $CO_2$ laser cladding was conducted on an AC2B alloy with feeding Fe-based powders. A powder feeding rate (PFR) and a travel velocity were related with the cracks adjacent to the Fe/Al interface. Preheating temperature was varied to study the interface crack. Preheating to $250^{\circ}C$ during the laser cladding suppressed the interface crack ratio (ICR). The ICR was limited for the single pass clad and the reciprocating test for the slide wear was conducted on an overlay cladding experiment. Comparing with no overlap overlay, the overlay clad with 50% overlap showed better wear resistance.

Macrostructural characteristic of the transverse cracks and fatigue behavior were studied for EH 32 TMCP 50mm thick plate welded with FACW under the variation in preheat and interpass temperatures. Transverse cracks were detected in specimen welded with preheat and interpass temperature below $30^{\circ}C$, but cracks were not detected in the specimens welded with preheat and interpass temperatures at the range of $100~120^{\circ}C$.C. The location of crack formation was found to strongly depend upon the thickness of weld layers as regard to the plate thickness.

In this paper we develop an electronic starter circuit that is suitable for Neon sign operation of switch-start fluorescent lamps. The developed starter enable single pulse ignition of fluorescent lamp at the peak point of preheating current, irrespective of the position of the Tum-On signal. This is possible due to the sequential operation of two transistors different in their operation characteristics and a diode operation characteristic. The switching endurance test using this starter has been carried for more than 3000 hours for a single switch-start on a severe blinking condition of preheating of 0.1s and of successive lighting interval of 0.1s.

Laser-assisted selective infiltration is a new method of building metal layers to make metal parts layer by layer, in which superheated microscopic metal droplets are infiltrated into a laser-preheated layer of microscopic metal powders. In this work, the selective infiltration of a low melting-point metal, Sn-37Pb wt%, was conducted to investigate the effects of such dominant parameters as superheating temperature, Nd:YAG laser power for preheating, substrate temperature, etc. The optimal conditions for successful selective infiltration of a single layer of microscopic metal powder were experimentally obtained

Compared to conventional flame combustion, catalytic combustion had the advantage of oxidation of V.O.C. gas which was high voluminous, low caloric mixture flow. However, the temperature of mixture gas should be over the one of catalytic reaction start and the control of reaction on the catalytic surface tends to be vulnerable. To overcome these obstacles, composition of both catalytic combustor and heat exchanger was devised and named the sequential catalytic combustion system. In this system, only trigger unit needed preheating process for transient starting time. Once trigger unit was ignited, the next unit w3s supplied heat to ignite from that and same process was performed to the last one sequentially. When it come to steady state, whole mixture gas was oxidated at each unit simultaneously and preheating for trigger unit was not needed any more. System of 100 kcalh/hr capacity was devised and operated successfully.

Silver is widely used for catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, but start-up at room temperature is difficult and cannot withstand at high temperature. In this paper, to overcome these short-comings, a dual catalytic bed which consists of a vaporizer catalyst and a high temperature catalyst was studied. Platinum was selected as the vaporizer catalyst and perovskite type catalyst was selected for the high temperature catalyst. Preliminary test demonstrated start-up capability with non-preheating at room temperature and good thermal stability at high temperature.

This study is focused on the development and selection of the optimal cool tube system to maximize its thermal performance. Cool tube is devised to reduce the heating and cooling load of building by preheating or refreshing of intake air with buried pipes. Finite volume method is adopted to solve the conduction problem between the cool tube and earth. We examine the cool tube system for two operating periods, a short term(12 hours) and a long term(3 months). The results of short term operations reveal that condensation significantly influences and raises the exit air temperature. For long term operations, optimum conditions of cool tube system are obtained with variations of flow-rate, depth, length and diameter of cool tube.
