최신의 마이크로프로세서 설계에서는 전력 관련 문제들이 중요한 고려사항이 되었다. 온-칩(On-chip) 온도 상승은 이와 관련하여 중요한 요소로 부각되었다. 이를 적절하게 처리하지 않을 경우 냉각 비용과 칩 신뢰성에 부정적인 결과를 초래한다. 이 논문에서 우리는 시간적/공간적인 핫 스폿(Hot spot) 완화를 위한 설계들과 열 시간 상수, 작업부하 변동, 마이크로프로세서의 전력 분배 사이의 보편적인 상충관계(Trade off)들을 조사한다. 우리의 방안은 작업부하의 실행위치/순서를 변경하고 동시실행 스레드의 수를 조절하여 시스템의 공간 및 시간적인 열 틈새(Heat slack)에 영향을 줌으로써, 운영체계(OS)와 이미 시스템에 존재하는 하드웨어의 지원만으로 적절한 시간제한내에 작업부하를 조절함으로써 온-칩 온도를 낮출 수 있다.

TSV는 그동안 3D IC 적층을 하는데 핵심 기술로 많이 연구되어 왔고, RC delay를 줄여 소자의 성능을 향상시키고, 전체 시스템 사이즈를 줄일 수 있는 기술로 각광을 받아왔다. 최근에는 TSV를 전기적 연결이 아닌 소자의 열관리를 위한 구조로 연구되고 있다. TSV를 이용한 liquid cooling 시스템 개발은 TSV 제조, TSV 디자인 (aspect ratio, size, distribution), 배선 밀도, microchannel 제조, sealing, 그리고 micropump 제조까지 풀어야 할 과제가 아직 많이 남아있다. 그러나 TSV를 이용한 liquid cooling 시스템은 열관리뿐 아니라 신호 대기시간(latency), 대역폭(bandwidth), 전력 소비(power consumption), 등에 크게 영향을 미치기 때문에 3D IC 적층 기술의 장점을 최대로 이용한 차세대 cooling 시스템으로 지속적인 개발이 필요하다.

척추측만증은 척추가 관상면에서 10도 이상 굽은 상태입니다. 하지만 관상면 뿐만 아니라 횡단면, 시상면에서의 변형도 포함되기 때문에 단순하지 않은 문제입니다. 측만증의 만곡은 성장기 어린이에게 상당히 진행되면 문제를 일으킵니다. 척추측만증의 치료는 관찰을 포함해서 기브스, 보조기, 물리치료, 운동 및 수술 등이 있습니다. 관리의 목표는 낮은 측만각을 유지하여 비대칭을 최소화하는 것이지만, 학업과 시간 부족으로 청소년들은 지속적인 치료를 받기 어려운 형편입니다. 이에 가정용 온열-마사지를 통해 측만각의 유지 또는 개선을 경험한 척추측만증 사례를 보고합니다.

Along with global environmental issues, the size of the electric vehicle market has recently skyrocketed. Various efforts have been made to extend mileage, one of the biggest problems of the electric vehicles, and development of batteries with high energy densities has led to exponential growth in mileage and performance. However, proper thermal management is essential because these high-performance batteries are affected by continuous heat generation and can cause fires due to thermal runaway phenomena. Therefore, thermal management of the battery is studied through the optimal design of the guide vanes, while utilizing the existing battery casing to ensure the safety of the electric vehicles. A battery from T-company, one of a manufacturer of the electric vehicles, was used for the research, and the commercial CFD software, ANSYS CFX V20.2, was used for analysis. The guide vanes were derived through optimal design based on a genetic algorithm with flow analysis. The optimized guide vanes show improved heat removal performance.

데이터센터는 24시간 365일 IT 서비스를 제공하는 곳이기 때문에, 2030년에는 데이터센터의 전력 소비량은 약 10%로 증가될 것으로 예측되고, 고밀도 IT장비들의 도입이 점차 증가하면서, IT장비가 안정적으로 운영될 수 있도록 냉방 에너지 절감 및 이를 위한 에너지 관리가 갖춰져야 하기에 다양한 연구가 요구되고 있는 상황이다. 본 연구는 데이터센터의 에너지 절약을 위해 다음과 같은 과정을 제안한다. 데이터센터를 CFD 모델링하고, 인공지능기반 열환경 예측 모델을 제안하였으며, 실측 데이터와 예측 모델 그리고 CFD 결과를 비교하여 최종적으로 데이터 센터의 열관리 성능을 평한 결과 전처리 방식은 정규화 방식으로 사용되었고, 정규화에 따른 RCI, RTI 및 PUE의 예측값 또한 유사한 것을 확인할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안하는 알고리즘으로 데이터센터에 적용될 열환경 예측 모델로 적용 및 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Wall/floor intersection is important parts of a building envelope system. These intersections can be sources of thermal bridging effects and/or moisture condensation problems. This paper provides a detailed analysis of the thermal performance of wall/floor intersection. In particular, two-dimensional steady-state and transient solutions of the heat conduction within the wall/floor joint are presented. Various insulation configurations are considered to determine the magnitude of heat transfer increase due to wall/floor joint construction.

Urban green spaces offer a variety of benefits to living things and humans. However, existing green spaces have been reduced and fragmented due to urbanization, and there is a limit to creating new large green spaces in densely developed cities. Street trees have fewer restrictions on land use, which can be a measure to secure green areas in cities. In Korea, excessive pruning is being done on some street trees for reasons such as blocking of building signboards, contact with electric wires, and restrictions on sidewalk widths. Therefore, it is necessary to quantitatively understand the relationship between the benefits provided by street trees and their structures to come up with an efficient and systematic planning and management plan for urban street trees. In this study, we quantitatively analyzed the relationship between the thermal comfort improvement by the shades of street trees and the vertical structure, planting environment, and types of street trees. To calculate the thermal comfort felt by human body, we calculated UTCI (Universal Thermal Climate Index) of each street tree. For the vertical structure of street trees, we used Terrestrial LiDAR and the point clouds of street tree's crown was sliced vertically at 1m intervals. We conducted a multiple regression analysis on the thermal comfort improvement using the variables we obtained from fields. As a result, in the case of a street tree's vertical structure, the lager the volume of tree's crown located 3-4m (β=0.298, p<.05) and 6-7m (β=0.568, p<.001) above clear length, the better the cooling effect. In addition, the thermal comfort improvement was assessed to decrease as the DBH increased (β=-0.435, p<.001). In general, the crown diameter and DBH are positively correlated, with a cooling effect occurring as crown diameter increases. In this study, the opposite result was obtained due to the small number of trees measured, so additional research is needed by increasing the number of tree samples. In the case of the planting environment, the effect of improving thermal comfort was higher in the shaded area of trees planted to the south (β=-0.541, p<.001). Since unsystematic management of street trees can deteriorate the function of them, quantitative evaluations of the vertical structure of street trees are required, which can provide specific measures for planning and management of urban street trees with thermal comfort effect.

For future multi-core processors, 3D integration is regarded as one of the most promising techniques since it improves performance and reduces power consumption by decreasing global wire length. However, 3D integration causes serious thermal problems since the closer proximity of heat generating dies makes existing thermal hotspots more severe. Conventional air cooling schemes are not enough for 3D multi-core processors due to the limit of the heat dissipation capability. Without more efficient cooling methods such as liquid cooling, the performance of 3D multi-core processors should be degraded by dynamic thermal management. In this paper, we examine the architectural impact of cooling methods on the 3D multi-core processor to find potential benefits of liquid cooling. We first investigate the thermal behavior and compare the performance of two different cooling schemes. We also evaluate the leakage power consumption and lifetime reliability depending on the temperature in the 3D multi-core processor.

High power light emitting diode(LEDs), a strong candidate for the next generation general illumination applications are of interest. With major advantages of power saving, increased life expectancy and faster response time over traditional incandescent bulb, the LEDs are rapidly taking over many applications such as LCD backlighting, traffic light, automotive lighting, signage, etc. The increased electrical currents used to drive the LEDs have focused more attention on the thermal management because the efficiency and reliability of the solid-state lighting devices strongly depend on successful thermal management. There exist some problems that are caused by heat generation in the LED package, such as wire breakage, yellowing of epoxy resin, lifted chip caused by reflow of thermal paste chip attach and interfacial separation between LED package and silicon resin. The goal of this study is to analyze high power LED thermal properties of using pulsating heat pipe.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects on body temperature, shivering, and perceived thermal comfort of web-based evidence-based practice guideline for patients undergoing gastrectomy. Methods: Eighty patients scheduled for gastrectomy were recruited and assigned to the control or experimental group by sequential order. Before collecting data from the experimental group, a systematic educational program on evidence-based guidelines was provided to the nurses as well anesthesiologists. Data were analyzed using t-test and repeated measured ANOVA. Results: The experimental group showed higher body temperature from the induction of anesthesia until four hours after surgery compared to the control group. In addition, the levels of thermal comfort as well as satisfaction with thermal management were significantly higher in the experiment group. Conclusion: Use of evidence-based guidelines was effective in maintaining body temperature, lowering sensitivity to shivering, and promoting perceived thermal comfort. Therefore, adoption of evidence-based interventions in nursing practice is recommended.
