고상-액상 상변화물질(PCM, Phase Change Material)을 이용한 위성부품 열제어장치를 설계 및 제작하였으며 열환경시험을 수행함으로써 온도제어 성능을 분석하였다. 설계온도에 부합하는 n-Hexadecane을 PCM으로 채용하였고, 낮은 열전도도를 보완하기 위하여 내부에 전열휜이 장착된 용기를 Al6061로 제작하였다. 위성에 장착하였을 때와 동일한 작동조건을 확보하기 위하여, 부품과 방열판 사이를 열관으로 연결하였으며 열관의 단열부가 관통하도록 PCM 열제어장치를 설치하였다. 동일한 모양과 부피의 열적완충질량(TBM, Thermal Buffer Mass)도 제작하여, 주기적인 가열-냉각 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 상변화 잠열에 의한 PCM의 열제어 성능을 확인할 수 있었으며, TBM에 비하여 질량과 보온히터의 소모전력을 절감할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

TRiplet Ionospheric Observatory-CubeSat for Ion, Neutron, Electron & MAgnetic fields (TRIO-CINEMA) is a CubeSat with 3.14 kg in weight and 3-U ($10{\times}10{\times}30$ cm) in size, jointly developed by Kyung Hee University and UC Berkeley to measure magnetic fields of near Earth space and detect plasma particles. When a satellite is launched into orbit, it encounters ultra-high vacuum and extreme temperature. To verify the operation and survivability of the satellite in such an extreme space environment, experimental tests are conducted on the ground using thermal vacuum chamber. This paper describes the temperature control device and monitoring system suitable for CubeSat test environment using the thermal vacuum chamber of the School of Space Research, Kyung Hee University. To build the chamber, we use a general purpose thermal analysis program and NX 6.0 TMG program. We carry out thermal vacuum tests on the two flight models developed by Kyung Hee University based on the thermal model of the TRIO-CINEMA satellite. It is expected from this experiment that proper operation of the satellite in the space environment will be achieved.

In this paper, an experiment was carried out to investigate the thermal behavior and performance on a solar space heating & hot water system in an apartment. Measurement was continued for 6 months between January 1st 2004 and June 31th 2004. The results show that there is no problem in control and operation in case of connection this system with conventional space heating and hot water system, and that the thermal performance of this system and indoor thermal environment is good.

COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) is a geostationary satellite and has been developing by KARI for communication, ocean observation and meteorological observation. Conventional thermal control design, using MLI (Multi Layer Insulation), OSR (Optical Solar Reflector), heater and heat pipe, is utilized. Ka-band components are installed on South wall, while other equipment for sensors are installed on the opposite side, North wall. High dissipating communication units are located on external (surface) heat pipe and are covered by internal insulation blankets to decouple them from the rest of the satellite. External satellite walls are covered by MLI or OSR for insulation from space and for rejection internal heat to space. The ocean and meteorological sensors are installed on optical benches on the top floor to decouple thermally from the satellite. Single solar array wing is adopted in order to secure clear field of view of radiant cooler of IR meteorological sensor. This paper presents principles of thermal control design for the COMS.

The vibration damping of structure is increased by thermal actuator. The thermal actuator causes thermal stress across the section of structure. The several kinds of control theories are proposed and the proposed control theories are successful in increasing vibration damping. This scheme can be effectively applied to large space structure [LSS] having very low natural frequencies.

As more and more people desire to live in an apartment complex with a comfortable outdoor space, many construction company became interested in outdoor design. In order to increase the use of outdoor space and create the most pleasant environment, outdoor thermal environment and comfort should be evaluated quantitatively from the design stage. This study utilized ENVI-met 3.1 model to analyze outdoor thermal environment in apartment complex, and evaluated outdoor thermal comfort in 6 points of apartment complex. The physiologically equivalent temperature(PET) was employed as a outdoor thermal index. Playground B had a poor thermal environment with the maximum PET $43^{\circ}C$ (Very hot). Because shading by building and tree didn't affect outdoor thermal environment of playground B. To design comfortable outdoor space from the view point of thermal environment, the factors influencing Mean radiant temperature(MRT) and wind speed should be considered in design stage. Since it is difficult to control outdoor thermal environment compared with indoor environment, we should take into account an assessment for outdoor thermal environment and comfort in outdoor design stage.

A thin spray coating of inorganic black lithium polysilicate (IBLP) on black anodized AZ31B magnesium alloy was fabricated for better corrosion resistance and thermo-optical properties for thermal control of spacecraft components. The morphology of the specimens with and without IBLP-based spray coating was characterized by SEM-EDS techniques. Impedance and potentiodynamic measurements on the specimens revealed better corrosion resistance for the specimen with a thin coating of lithium polysilicate. This was primarily due to the presence of lithium polysilicate inside the micro-cracks of the black anodized specimen, restricting the diffusion paths for corrosive media. Environmental tests, namely, humidity, thermal cycling, thermo vacuum performance, were used to evaluate the space-worthiness of the coating. The thermo-optical properties of the coating were measured before and after each environmental test to ascertain its stability. The specimen with an IBLP-based spray coating showed enhanced thermo-optical properties, greater than ~0.90. Hence, the proposed coating demonstrated better handling, better corrosion resistance, and space-worthiness during the pre-launch phase owing to its improved thermo-optical properties.

Recently, the size of Large Space has been gradually enlarged, according to the development of technology, and because they're used not only for indoor events, but also for various outdoor sports, for example, baseball or soccer. Therefore, there are more demands for developing indoor environment control technology to establish indoor thermal-environment which is proper for different events held in Large Space. This study aims at offering some basic data which can be referred to as the construction guide for the full-scaled construction of Large Space in Korea by arranging the matters to be attended to in designing, and controlling technologies for efficient Large Space design.
