The carbon felt is usually hired as electrodes for vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB). In the study, surface modification of carbon felt under CO₂ atmosphere with variables of operating various temperature ranges between 700℃ and 900℃. The qualitative and quantitative analysis were carried out such as scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to observe degree of surface modification. Result of XPS analysis confirmed increase of carbon and oxidation functional group on the surface with increase of temperature. SEM image was discovered similar phenomena. Electrochemical characteristics such as cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) revealed the improved electrode performance with increase of temperature. However, the electrochemical performance under treatments temperature of 900℃ was less than that of under treatment temperature of 850℃ due to weight loss at the treatment temperature of 900℃. From the CV and EIS results, the best electrochemical characteristics was at the temperature of 850℃. That of at the temperature of 900℃ was decreased due to weight loss. The energy efficiencies (EE) obtained from full cell test were 69.37, 80.76, 82.45, and 75.47%, at the temperature of 700, 800, 850, and 900℃, respectively.

The accelerated thermal ageing of CSPE (chlorosulfonated polyethylene) was carried out for 16.82, 50.45, and 84.09 days at $110^{\circ}C$, equivalent to 20, 60, and 100 years of ageing at $50^{\circ}C$ in nuclear power plants, respectively. As the accelerated thermally aged years increase, the insulation resistance and resistivity of the CSPE decrease, and the capacitance, relative permittivity and dissipation factor of those increase at the measured frequency, respectively. As the accelerated thermally aged years and the measured frequency increase, the phase degree of response voltage vs excitation voltage of the CSPE increase but the phase degree of response current vs excitation voltage decrease, respectively. As the accelerated thermally aged years increase, the apparent density, glass transition temperature and the melting temperature of the CSPE increase but the percent elongation and % crystallinity decrease, respectively. The differential temperatures of those are $0.013-0.037^{\circ}C$ and, $0.034-0.061^{\circ}C$ after the AC and DC voltages are applied to CSPE-0y and CSPE-20y, respectively; the differential temperatures of those are $0.011-0.038^{\circ}C$ and $0.002-0.028^{\circ}C$ after the AC and DC voltages are applied to CSPE-60y and CSPE-100y, respectively. The variations in temperature for the AC voltage are higher than those for the DC voltage when an AC voltage is applied to CSPE. It is found that the dielectric loss owing to the dissipation factor($tan{\delta}$) is related to the electric dipole conduction current. It is ascertained that the ionic (electron or hole) leakage current is increased by the partial separation of the branch chain of CSPE polymer as a result of thermal stress due to accelerated thermal ageing.

This study examines the climatological variability of urban area and the increase of temperature by urbanization using the observed data of Busan and Mokpo during the last 100 years (1910~2010). The results are as follows. First, the maximum temperature in Busan during the last 100 years has increased by $1.5^{\circ}C$ while average temperature and the minimum temperature have increased by $1.6^{\circ}C$ and $2^{\circ}C$. In Mokpo, the maximum temperature and average temperature have increased by $1^{\circ}C$ and the minimum temperature has increased by $0.8^{\circ}C$. The increase of urban temperature appeared to be higher in Busan than in Mokpo by $0.5^{\circ}C{\sim}1.2^{\circ}C$. Second, as for the change in temperature before and after urbanization, the maximum temperature, average temperature and the minimum temperature during last 50 years compared to the previous 50 years have increased about $1.5^{\circ}C$, $1.6^{\circ}C$ and $2.1^{\circ}C$, however, the predicted temperature after removing urbanization effect was estimated to be increased by $1^{\circ}C$. The proportion that urbanization takes on the overall increase of temperature appeared to be 33% at the maximum temperature, 37.5% at average temperature and 52.3% at the minimum temperature, thus the proportion of urbanization appeared to be maximized at the minimum temperature.

The stem thrust required to unwedging a gate valve is influenced by the pressure and temperature when the valve is closed and by the changes in these conditions between closure and opening. "Pressure Locking" and "Thennal Binding" refer to situations where pressure and temperature effects cause the unwedging load to be much higher than normal. A model of these phenomena has been developed. The effects of pressure and temperature are analyzed to determine the change in this disk-to-seat "interference". Flexibilities or Stiffness of the disk and body strongly influence the unwedging thrust. Calculation and limited comparison to data have been performed for the RHR motor operated valve designs and scenario. Pressure changes can increase the unwedging thrust when bonnet pressure exceeds the pressure in the adjacent piping and temperature changes can increase the unwedging thrust when a temperature change after closure produces an increase in the disk-to-seat interference.

Combustion using oxygen enriched air is an energy saving technology that can increase thermal efficiency by improving the burning rate and by increasing the flame temperature. Flame figures, OH radical intensities, temperature distributions and emissions concentration were examined according to oxygen enriched concentration(OEC) in a turbulent diffusion flat flame. As long as the oxygen enriched concentration was increased, the length and volume of the flat flame was decreased while OH radical intensity was raised and the flame temperature was increased. However, RMS of the fluctuating temperature was decreased, and more homogeneous temperature field was formed. Thermal NO also was increased with increase of oxygen enriched concentration, but CO was decreased due to the increase of chemical reaction rate.

It is necessary to study on thermo-hydro-mechanical effect at rock mass performing project such as radiowaste disposal in deep rock mass. In this study, thermo-hydro-mechanical coupling analysis which is considered interaction and the variation of rock properties induced by temperature increase was performed for the circular shaft when appling temperature of 20$0^{\circ}C$ at the shaft wall. The shaft is diameter of 2 m and under hydrostatic stress of 5 MPa. In the cases, thermal expansion by temperature increase progress from the wall to outward and thermal expansion could induce tensile stress over the tensile strength of rock mass at the wall. When rock properties were given as a function of temperature, thermal expansion increased, tensile stress zone expanded. Lately, water flow is activated by increase of permeability and decrease of viscosity.

In this paper, we have investigated electronical chara-cteristics of power LDMOSFETS having different ex-tended gate lengths(1.B${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 2.4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 3.O${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) in the temperature range of 300k-500K. The results of this study indicate that on-resistance, breakdown voltage increase with temperature. and drain current, threshold voltage, transconductance decrease with temperature. Particular the facts, we observed that Le is the more increase, on-resistance is the more decrease. because every conditions are fixed normal states, only change the Le. As a result, Ron/BV, known for a figure of merit of power device, increase with temperature.

TFTs (thin film transistors) were fabricated using a-SIZO (amorphous silicon-indium-zinc-oxide) channel by RF (radio frequency) magnetron sputtering at room temperature. We report the influence of various channel thickness on the electrical performances of a-SIZO TFTs and their stability, using TS (temperature stress) and NBTS (negative bias temperature stress). Channel thickness was controlled by changing the deposition time. As the channel thickness increased, the threshold voltage ($V_{TH}$) of a-SIZO changed to the negative direction, from 1.3 to -2.4 V. This is mainly due to the increase of carrier concentration. During TS and NBTS, the threshold voltage shift (${\Delta}V_{TH}$) increased steadily, with increasing channel thickness. These results can be explained by the total trap density ($N_T$) increase due to the increase of bulk trap density ($N_{Bulk}$) in a-SIZO channel layer.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of solution-treatment temperature on the microstructure and damping capacity of a martensitic Fe-7%Ni-0.4%C alloy. The size of lath increased from $0.3{\mu}m$ to $0.55{\mu}m$ with increasing the solution-treatment temperature from 700 to $1100^{\circ}C$. In addition, the size of block, packet, and austenite grain had tendency to increase with increasing solution-treatment temperature. The damping capacity of the Fe-7%Ni-0.4%C martensitic alloy decreased with increasing the solution treatment temperature. The reason is not attributed to the increase in the size of lath, block, packet, and austenite grain, but to the increase in vacancy concentration which hinders dislocation motion.

Minimum fludizing velocities and voidages were investigated for closely sized sand and magnesia particles with mean diameters in the range of $297-841\;{\mu}m$ over the temperature between 15 and $1.000^{\circ}C$. Boundaries between changing behaviour at $Re_{mf}=14$ and Ar=17,000 were observed. In beds of fine particles in Geldart's group "B", the minimum fluidizing velocity ($U_{mf}$) decreased as temperature increased, but not as much as expected on account of the gas viscosity increase, furthermore the increase in the minimum fluidizing voidage (${\in}_{mf}$). With larger particles in group "D", $U_{mf}$ increased, first, with temperature increase because of reduced gas density, and depending on the particle size, $U_{mf}$ reduced as flow conditions moved from turbulent to laminar. Among the correlations predicting $U_{mf}$, Ergun equation agreed best with the experimental data providing that the change in ${\in}_{mf}$ according to temperature is allowed for.
