This study addresses the effectiveness of TEC(Thermoelectric cooler) application for spacecraft thermal control. The required radiator area and power consumption characteristics of active thermal control using TEC are compared with the passive control at BOL and EOL through unsteady thermal analyses by calculating external heat fluxes. When the component operating temperature is low enough in TEC active control, the required radiator area can be smaller than the passive thermal control. TEC also needs less power consumption than the passive control under the condition that the temperature of cooling pars is low enough and/or the design temperature margin of the components is narrow enough.

Sustainable building is getting more and more important topic in 21C. Following this trend, building energy saving standard has been reinforced in Korea. Especially, insulation standards are revised continuously after1979. This study aims to evaluate the correlation between the revised insulation standards and heating and cooling loads of a residential building. This study shows that the standard of insulation is more related with heating load than cooling load, and cooling load is more related with other sources such as glass types and solar incidence through windows. In case of highly-insulated building such Passive Houses or Zero Energy Houses, the cooling load should also be considered as important as heating load when revising the building energy saving regulations in the future.

A thin film thermoelectric cooler for COB direct assembly was proposed and the COB cooler structure was modeled by electrical equivalent circuit by using SPICE model of thermoelectric devices. The embedded cooler attached between the die chip and metal plate can offer the possibility of thin film active cooling for the COB direct assembly. We proposed a driving method of TEC by using pulse width modulation technique. The optimum power to the TEC is simulated by using a SPICE model of thermoelectric device and passive components representing thermal resistance and capacitance. The measured and simulated results offer the possibility of thin film active cooling for the COB direct assembly.

This study is aimed at investigating the thermal behavior of immersion-cooled high power LED lighting engines. 3D CFD models have been generated for the numerical analysis. Five cases in terms of the configuration of LED chips have been explored for various passive cooling conditions of the lighting engine, i.e., the natural air convection with a lens, the natural air convection without a lens, the deionized water-immersion cooling condition with a lens. The numerical study reveals that the deionized water-immersion cooled lighting engine has nearly twice better thermal performance than the natural air convection cooled lighting engine containing a lens. The investigation has also demonstrated that the four chips configuration has the better thermal performance than the single chip configuration.

The cooling effect of a mobile phone using PCM(Phase Change Material) module has been numerically investigated. A transient three-dimensional numerical analysis of heat and fluid flow with natural convection is performed in this study. Governing conservation equations for mass, momentum and energy are solved by an implicit finite volume method. An enthalpy-porosity technique has been used for modeling of the melting process. Two different ways of placing the PCM module are considered. One is to place a PCM module between the substrate and battery pack, and the other is to place a PCM module between MCM(multichip module) and battery pack. Three different types of PCMs are used to predict the performance of PCM. The results show that passive cooling with PCM can reduce the temperature rise and the effect of natural convection in PCM module considered in this study is negligible.

During a station blackout (SBO), the initiating event is a loss of Class IV and Class III power, causing the loss of the pumps, used in systems such as the primary heat transporting system (PHTS), moderator cooling, shield cooling, steam generator feed water, and re-circulating cooling water. The reference case of the SBO case does not credit any of these active heat sinks, but only relies on the passive heat sinks, particularly the initial water inventories of the PHTS, moderator, steam generator secondary side, end shields, and reactor vault. The reference analysis is followed by a series of sensitivity cases assuming certain system availabilities, in order to assess their mitigating effects. This paper also establishes the strategies to mitigate SBO accidents. Current studies and strategies use the computer code of the Integrated Severe Accident Analysis Code (ISAAC) for Wolsong plants. The analysis results demonstrate that appropriate strategies to mitigate SBO accidents are established and, in addition, the symptoms of the SBO processes are understood.

과학기술위성3호의 주탑재체 Multi-purpose Infra-Red Imaging System(MIRIS)는 한국천문연구원이 개발하고 있는 소형 적외선 우주망원경이다. MIRIS는 적외선 센서의 열잡음을 최소화시키기 위하여 망원경의 온도가 허용범위를 넘지 않도록 설계되었다. 특히 3K의 심우주를 향해 MIRIS의 복사열을 자연 방출하는 Passive cooling은 임무 성공에 영향을 미치는 매우 중요한 과정이다. 이를 검증하고자 NX 7.0(Space Systems Thermal, TMG 탑재)을 사용하여 열 해석을 수행하였다. 각 부품별로 물성과 열광학 특성을 적용하여 전도 및 복사를 통한 열전달 과정을 계산하였고, MIRIS의 궤도 특성을 고려하여 정상상태에서의 망원경 온도를 얻었다. 그 결과 Passive cooling을 통해 MIRIS 망원경이 허용범위 아래로 냉각되는 것을 확인하였다.

The safety of nuclear power plants has received much attention; this safety largely depends on the continuous availability of electrical energy source during all modes of nuclear power plant operation. A station blackout (SBO) describes the loss of the off-site electric power, the failure of the emergency diesel generators, and the unavailability of the alternate AC (AAC) power. Consequently, all systems that are AC powered such as the safety injection, shutdown cooling, component cooling water, and essential service water systems are unavailable. The aim of this study is to investigate the deficiencies of the existing alternatives for coping with an extended SBO for APR1400 design. The method is analyzing the existing deficiencies and proposing an optimal solution for the NPP design during the extended SBO. This study, established a new passive system, called passive decay heat removal system (PDHRS), using systems engineering approach.

Recent days, transition to ecological thought is being accelerating by environmental impact with a sustainable development. This symptom is no exception in architecture area. So is vernacular design affecting on modern architecture in many ways in terms of economical aspect and eco-friendly environment as well. Natural energy like solar power, environment, and terrestrial heat that applied in vernacular architecture is also widely accepted in name of 'sustainable energy' of which a design applied with ventilation and airing of natural wind is very useful & pragmatic in terms of economical reason. Accordingly, this study examined a relation between vernacular architecture and natural wind and compared it with traditional type and its feature of ventilation & airing. Ventilation & airing applied in the past can be divided into three categories: methods by convection, natural element, and architectural type. All these methods gave some pleasant felling indoors when there were no artificial energies. Even in modern age, such a ventilation & airing is being used with traditional type in different variety of materials, and it will be developed with modern technology without any extra cost in terms of sustainable expansion, and opened for further researches.

과학기술위성 3호의 주탑재체인 MIRIS (Multi-purpose InfraRed Imaging System)는 우주관측카메라, 지구관측카메라로 구성되어 있으며, 우주관측카메라는 구경 80mm(f/2)의 광시야 굴절식 광학계로 구성되어 있다. 지상과 우주에서 사용하는 적외선 망원경의 경우 열잡음을 줄이기 위해 광학계과 검출기를 냉각하게 되는데, MIRIS의 경우 공간과 무게를 줄이기 위해 복사 냉각을 위한 passive cooling 방법으로 설계를 하였다. 우주관측 카메라의 광학계를 200K 이하로 냉각하기 위하여, 관측시야 밖에서 입사하는 불필요한 photon 들을 반사시키기 위한 winston cone baffle, 위성체로부터 유입되는 열을 차단하기 위한 30층의 MLI(Multi Layer Insulation), 광학계와 구조물의 지지를 열전달율이 낮은 GFRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer)로 설계하여 제작하였다. 우주관측 카메라를 열진공 챔버 내부에 설치하고 우주공간과 비슷한 환경을 조성하여 광학계가 200K 이하로 냉각되는 것을 확인 하였으며 그 실험 결과에 대해 논의 하고자 한다.
