To study the effect of global warming on the growth of plants and plant populations throughout their life cycle under a field-like condition, we constructed a Temperature Gradient Chamber (TGC) in Tsukuba, Japan. The chamber had slender shape : 30 m long. 3 m wide, and 2.5 m high. That satisfactory performance was confirmed by a test throughout all seasons in 1998: the projected global warming condition in the near future was simulated. That is, independent of a great daily or seasonal change in ambient meteorological conditions, air temperatures at the air outlet were warmed 5$^{\circ}C$ higher than those at the ambient (the annual mean was 14.3$^{\circ}C$) with precision of ${\pm}$0.2$^{\circ}C$ (the annual means were 19.2$^{\circ}C$) with a rising rate of approximately 1$^{\circ}C$ every 5 m. This chamber will enable us to study the effects of global warming on growth of plants and plant populations because their abilities to control air temperature are excellent. TGC is expected that it would be utilized for studying the effect of global warming on plant growth under natural weather conditions.

To understand the effects of elevated $CO_2$ concentration and temperature on seedling emergence of seven herbaceous species, the seedling emergence was monitored between November 1997 and May 1998 using a temperature gradient chamber and a $CO_2$-temperature gradient chamber. Experiment was conducted under current ambient condition (Control plot), 2$^{\circ}C$-warmed condition with ambient $CO_2$ (T2 Plot), 4$^{\circ}C$-warmed condition with ambient $CO_2$ (T4 plot). and 4$^{\circ}C$-warmed condition with 1.8 fold of ambient $CO_2$ (CT4 plot). Species tested in this study were Digitaria adscendens, Echinochloa crus-galli, Panicum bisulcatum, Setaria viridis. Oenothera biennis, Andropogon virginicus, and Imperata cylindrica. Each species often dominates in the herbaceous stage of secondary succession in Japan. The mean seedling emergence times for all species were significantly increased to 23.6 and 32.2 d in the T2 and T4 plot compared to the Control plot, respectively. The most sensitive and insensitive species in seedling emergence time in T2 plot were O. biennis and D. adscendens, respectivel.y, and those in the T4 and CT4 plot were I. cylindrica and D. adscendens, E. crus-galli and A. virginicus, respectively. All experimental species showed no significant difference in the seedling emergence rate between treatments except for O. biennis and I. cylindrica. O. biennis showed a great decrease in the seedling emergence rate from 83.3% in the Control plot to 38.0%, 14.7%, and 29.3% in the T2, T4, and CT4 plot, respectively. Elevated $CO_2$ had very little effect on the seedling emergence. From these observations, it is expected that increased temperature would greatly advance the vegetative recovery time after disturbance through the advancement of seedling emergence time.

A research was undertaken on the thermal properties and behavior of the conductors in a controlled chamber, which was designed to implement the outdoor air temperature, heat and wind conditions With ACSR $410mm^2$ overhead conductors, we measured the maximum temperature of the conductors and the temperature gradient from the core to the surface regions as a function of current, tension, wind velocity and outdoor air temperature. This test also provided a comparative analysis between the measured temperature values of conductors in the controlled chamber and the theoretical calculations of ANSI/IEEE at normal condition. There was not much influence of tension on the conductor temperature. However, the compactness of conductor wires increased with an increase in tension, which eventually increased the coefficient of effective thermal conductivity and, accordingly the conductor temperature was reduced more or less.

온난화에 따른 벼의 생산량 변화는 우리나라뿐만 아니라 동아시아의 식량 수급에 매우 중요한 이슈 중 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 야외 온도보다 $0{\sim}3^{\circ}C$ 높은 환경을 형성해 주는 야외 온도구배챔버(TGFC)를 이용하여 고온이 벼의 생육과 생산량에 미치는 영향을 실험하였다. 챔버는 A, B, C 총 3개를 본 연구에 이용하였으며, C챔버는 출수기 이후 온도구배 처리를 하지 않았다. 벼 품종은 중만생종인 일미를 중묘로 이앙하였으며, 비료는 표준 시비량을 고려하여 N(질소) 9 kg, P(인) 4.5kg, K(칼륨) 5.7kg을 기준으로 처리하였다. A, B, C 모든 챔버에서 영양생장기 동안 고온 조건의 벼가 상대적으로 생육 속도가 빨랐다. 하지만, 출수 후 40일 동안의 평균 온도로 정의한 등숙기 온도가 계속 고온으로 유지될 경우 등숙률과 평균 종실 중이 온도에 비례하여 점진적으로 감소하였다. 특히 2016년 기상 조건을 기점으로 등숙기 온도가 증가함에 따라 불임이 증가하여 등숙률은 급격히 감소하였고, 그 영향으로 단위 면적당 수량도 크게 낮아졌다. 결국 동화산물의 분배 불균형을 초래해 출수 이후에도 잎의 엽록소 함량이 낮아지지 않았으며 비정상적인 늦이삭이 출현하였다. 하지만 늦이삭의 생산량이 고온으로 인해 감소한 정상 이삭의 생산량을 만회하기에는 매우 부족한 정도였다. 향후 지구 온난화로 인한 벼 생육기간의 고온은 벼의 생육을 촉진시키고, 출수 및 개화시기를 단축시키며 등숙기에도 고온이 지속 될 시 등숙률과 평균종실의 무게를 감소시켜 최종적으로 벼의 생산량 및 품질을 감소시킬 것으로 예측된다.

Recently, abnormal weather conditions, such as extreme high temperatures and droughts, have increased in frequency due to climate change, there has accordingly been growing concern regarding the detrimental effects on field crop, including soybean. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the effects of increased temperatures on soybean growth and yield using a temperature gradient chamber (TGC). Two major types of soybean cultivar, a medium- seed cultivar such as Daepung-2 and a large-seed cultivar such as Daechan, were used and four temperature treatments, aT+1℃ (ambient temperature+1℃), aT+2℃ (ambient temperature+2℃), aT+3℃ (ambient temperature+3℃) and aT+4℃ (ambient temperature+4℃) were established to examine the growth response and seed yield of each cultivar. Seed yield showed a higher correlation with seed weight (r=0.713***) and an increase in temperature affected seed yield by reducing the single seed weight. In particular, the seed growth rate of the large-seed cultivar (Daechan) increased at high temperature, resulting in a reduction in the number of days for full maturity. Our results accordingly indicate that large-seed cultivar, such as Daechan, is potentially vulnerable to high temperature stress. The results of this study can be used as basic data in the development of cultivation technology to reduce the damage caused by elevated temperatures. Also, further research is required to evaluate the response of each process contributing to seed yield production under high temperatures.

와류실은 압축된 공기를 이용하여 고온과 저온 가스로 분리할 수 있는 단순한 장치로, 차세대 새로운 열교환기로 각광받고 있으나, 와류실 내부에서 발행하는 물리적 유동특성에 대해 아직까지 많이 알려지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 온도 분리 현상을 조사하기 위해 실험 및 수치해석을 수행하였다. 공급 압력에 따른 온도 변화를 측정하기 위하여 다수의 압력 및 온도 센서를 사용하였으며, CFD 기법을 적용하여 3차원 비정상 압축성 유동장을 조사하였다. 연구를 통해 온도 분리 현상은 점성일과 밀접한 관계가 있는 공급 압력과 와류실의 직경에 영향을 받았으며, 와류실에서 발생하는 온도분리 현상은 압력구배파의 개념으로 확증할 수 없었다.

To design and develop a turbocharged engine, it needs that many studies must be preceded about the characteristics of engine performance and thermal flow. To accomplish this purpose, turbocharger was equipped to 1.3 liter naturally aspirated gasoline engine. The temperature probe of plate type was designed and it was installed into the combustion chamber wall to measure unsteady temperature. The unsteady heat flux at combustion chamber wall was evaluated using one dimensional unsteady conduction equation with the wall temperature and temperature gradient.

For use of the thermal cycle of the biochemical fluid sample, the isothermal temperature source with a large surface area was designed, fabricated and its thermal characterization was experimentally evaluated. The comprehensive overview of the technology trend on the temperature control devices was detailed. The large surface area isothermal temperature source was realized by using the vapor chamber heat spreader. The cost-effectiveness and simple manufacturing process were achieved by using the metal-etched wick structure. The temperature distribution was quantitatively investigated by using IR temperature imaging system at equivalent temperatures to the PCR thermal cycle. The standard deviation was measured to be within 0.7$^{\circ}C$ for each temperature cycle. This concludes that the presented isothermal temperature source enables no temperature gradient inside bio-sample fluid. Furthermore it can be applied to the cooling of the electronic devices due to its slimness and low thermal spreading resistance.
