Eco-friendly hybrid railroad propulsion system with fuel-cell and battery was suggested to reduce carbon dioxide gas and replace retired diesel railroads. Lithium-ion battery with high energy/power density and long lifetime is selected as the energy source at the battery side due to its excellent performance. However, the performance of lithium-ion batteries was affected by temperature, current rate, and operating condition. Temperature is known to be the most influential factor in changing battery parameters. In addition, appropriate thermal management is required to ensure the safe and effective operation of lithium-ion battery. Electro-thermal coupled model with varying parameter depends on temperature, and state-of-charge (SOC) is suggested to estimate battery temperature. The electric-thermal coupled model contains diffusion current using parameter identification by adaptive control algorithm when considering thermal diffusion effect. An experiment under forced convection was conducted using cylindrical cell and 18 parallel-connected battery module to demonstrate the method.

Li-ion battery system is regarded as one of the most potent power sources for electrified power-trains. For the Li-ion battery system to be widely adopted in automotive applications, the performance, safety, and cycle life issues need to be properly addressed. These issues are closely related to the thermal management of battery system. Especially, the effective cooling module design is the core part for the novel battery thermal management system development. In this paper, an experimental approach was carried out as a basic part of comprehensive battery thermal management research. The main goal of this paper is to present a comparison of two cooling systems (air cooling and phase change material (PCM) based cooling) of the unit 18650 battery module. The temperature rise with different battery discharge rate (c-rate) was mainly investigated and analyzed for two types of battery cooling systems. It is expected that this study can properly contribute to providing basic insights into the design of robust battery thermal management system for vehicular applications.

In proportion to the increased density in electronic packaging from chip to system levels of telecommunication system, thermal management is becoming a vital subject to save the cost of the electronic product and to maintain high reliability. The key to the successful application of the thermal management technique is the capability to predict the equipment thermal behaviors in early stage of system development and product design. This paper describes the application of correlations of natural convection to TDX-10 digital switching system, which has been under the 5 year development project since 1987, in order to predict equipment temperature and thermal behaviors whihin a rack.

Global automobile manufacturers are developing electric vehicles (EVs) to eliminate the pollutant emissions from internal combustion vehicles and to minimize fossil fuel consumptions for the future generations. However, EVs have a disadvantage of shorter traveling distance than that of conventional vehicles. To answer this shortfall, more batteries are installed in the EV to satisfy the consumer expectation for the driving range. However, as the energy capacity of the battery mounted in the EV increases, the amount of heat generated by each cell also increases. Naturally, a better battery thermal management system (BTMS) is required to control the temperature of the cells efficiently because the appropriate thermal environment of the cells greatly affects the power output from the battery pack. Typically, the BTMS is divided into an active and a passive system depending on the energy usage of the thermal management system. Heat exchange materials usually include gas and liquid, semiconductor devices and phase change material (PCM). In this study, an application of PCM for a BTMS was investigated to maintain an optimal battery operating temperature range by utilizing characteristics of a PCM, which can accumulate large amounts of latent heat. The system was modeled using Dymola from Dassault Systems, a multi-physics simulation tool. In order to compare the relative performance, the BTMS with the PCM and without the PCM were modeled and the same battery charge/discharge scenarios were simulated. Number of analysis were conducted to compare the battery cooling performance between the model with the aluminum case and PCM and the model with the aluminum case only.

The power consumption of a high-end microprocessor increases very rapidly. High power consumption will lead to a rapid increase in the chip temperature as well. If the temperature reaches beyond a certain level, chip operation becomes either slow or unreliable. Therefore various approaches for Dynamic Thermal Management (DTM) have been proposed. In this paper, we propose a learning based temperature prediction scheme for a multi-core system. In this approach, from repeatedly executing an application, we learn the thermal patterns of the chip, and we control the temperature in advance through DTM. When the predicted temperature may go beyond a threshold value, we reduce the temperature by decreasing the operation frequencies of the corresponding core. We implement our temperature prediction on an Intel's Quad-Core system which has integrated digital thermal sensors. A Dynamic Frequency System (DFS) technique is implemented to have four frequency steps on a Linux kernel. We carried out experiments using Phoronix Test Suite benchmarks for Linux. The peak temperature has been reduced by on average $5^{\circ}C{\sim}7^{\circ}C$. The overall average temperature reduced from $72^{\circ}C$ to $65^{\circ}C$.

The paper notes that the most common way of handling spent nuclear fuel (SNF) of power reactors is its temporary long-term dry storage. At the same time, the operation of the dry spent fuel storage facilities almost never use the modern capabilities of information systems in safety control and collecting information for the next studies under implementation of aging management programs. The author proposes a structure of an information system that can be implemented in a dry spent fuel storage facility with ventilated storage containers. To control the thermal component of spent fuel storage safety, a database structure has been developed, which contains 5 tables. An algorithm for monitoring the thermal state of spent fuel was created for the proposed information system, which is based on the comparison of measured and forecast values of the safety criterion, in which the level of heating the ventilation air temperature was chosen. Predictive values of the safety criterion are obtained on the basis of previously published studies. The proposed algorithm is an implementation of the information function of the system. The proposed information system can be used for effective thermal monitoring and collecting information for the next studies under the implementation of aging management programs for spent fuel storage equipment, permanent control of spent fuel storage safety, staff training, etc.

본 논문에서는 열화상 카메라를 적용한 개인 맞춤형 냉각관리 시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 장비는 열화상 카메라를 이용하여 사용자의 진행 전 피부 온도와 진행 후 피부온도의 차이에 따라 냉기 배출량 및 시스템을 제어한다. 피부의 온도가 비정상적으로 낮아지면 냉기공급을 차단하여 안전사고 발생 가능성을 방지한다. 피부 온도 감지센서를 열화상 카메라 온도측정으로 대체하여 경제적이고, 열화상 이미지로 온도를 확인할 수 있으므로 시각화가 가능하다. 또한, 제안하는 장비는 열화상 카메라를 적용한 개인 맞춤형 냉각관리 시스템의 안전을 위해 레이저 포인터를 듀얼로 사용하여 초점 거리를 산출하여 피부와의 거리를 측정하는 센서의 감도를 개선시킨다. 제안된 장비의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 외부공인 시험기관에서 실험하였다. 첫 번째로 측정된 온도 범위는 -100℃~-160℃로 측정되어, 현재 현장에서 사용되는 최고 수준인 -150~-160℃(cryo generation/미국) 보다 넓은 온도 범위를 나타내었다. 또한 오차는 ±3.2%~±3.5%로 측정되어 현재 현장에서 사용되는 최고 수준인 ±5%(CRYOTOP/중국) 보다 우수한 결과를 나타내었다. 두 번째로 측정된 거리 정확도는 ±4.0% 이하로 측정되어, 현재 현장에서 사용되는 최고 수준인 ±5%(CRYOTOP/중국) 보다 우수한 결과를 나타내었다. 세 번째로 질소 사용량은 최대 0.15 L/min 미만으로 확인되어, 현재 현장에서 사용되는 최고 수준인 6 L/min(POLAR BEAR/미국) 보다 우수한 결과를 나타내었다. 따라서 본 본문에서 제안한 열화상 카메라를 적용한 개인 맞춤형 냉각관리 시스템의 성능의 우수함이 판별되었다.

Efforts are being made to replace ship diesel engines with electric propulsion motors in response to emission regulations. In particular, in the case of short-range small ships, research is being conducted to replace polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) with power sources. However, PEMFC has problems such as slow dynamic response characteristics and reduced durability at high temperatures. To solve this problem, a high-precision ship model was developed with power distribution and thermal management strategies applied, and through this, the required power, heat, and power characteristics of the propulsion system according to the ship's speed profile were analyzed.
