A 69-group cross section library consisting of more than 130 materials was generated for thermal reactor applications using the NJOY nuclear data processing system and the recent version of evaluated nuclear data files available from IAEA Nuclear Data Section. The multigroup library was validated through the analysis of various criticality experiments and depletion results of PWR. When used with the WIMS-KAERI code, the average $K_{eff}$ obtained for 47 uranium-oxide and 41 uranium metal fueled critical configurations is 0.9997 with a standard deviation of 0.69 percent. The calculated burnup dependent isotopic inventories of uranium and plutonium generally show good agreement with measured values obtained from depleted PWR pins.s.

Characteristics of thermal flow stratification were studied experimentally by using the small scale pressurizer-surge line model. Thermal flow stratifications in the horizontal section of surge line were analyzed by the relation between the maximum temperature difference at any cross section in surge line and the Froude number representing the boundary conditions, i.e., in/out surge flow velocity and temperature difference of system. Thermal flow stratifications in outsurge flow decreased inversely proportional to the Froude number and did not exist for Fr>1. In insurge flow thermal flow stratifications disappeared near Fr=1.5, but resulted in the higher temperature difference than the case of outsurge flow.

AThe effect of localized surface plasmon on silicon substrates was studied using silver nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were formed by self-arrangement through the surface energy using rapid thermal annealing (RTA) technique after the thin nanolayer of silver was deposited by thermal evaporation. By the theoretical calculation based on Mie scattering and dielectric function of air, indium tin oxide (ITO), and silver, the strong peak of scattering cross section of silver nanoparticles was found at 358 nm for air, and 460 nm for ITO, respectively. Accordingly, the strong suppression of reflectance under the condition of induced light of $30^{\circ}$ occurred at the specific wavelength which is almost in accordance with peak of scattering cross section. When the external quantum efficiency was measured using silicon solar cells with silver nanoparticles, there was small enhancement peak near the 460 nm wavelength in which the light was resonated between silver nanoparticles and ITO.

The concept design of Flexible Seal for thrust vector control of solid motor was performed. Through the concept design, the optimum pivot point of flexible seal, cross-section configuration of flexible seal and thermal protection system from combustion gas was decided. The pivot point of flexible seal has aft pivot type and cross-section view is conical type. For satisfying a spring torque rate, the shear modulus of rubber has the value of under about 0.6MPa and failure shear stress has over about 2.5MPa.

This paper is the first part of the study on the accuracy improvement of numerical analysis of steel welds. The aim of this paper is to raise the accuracy of thermal analysis results, such as the shape and size of the weld cross section and the hardness distribution in HAZ(Heat-Affected Zone). It is known that the factors affecting on the accuracy are thermal properties, metallurgical properties and welding heat source model. It was found that the arbitrary distributed heat source model should be used to predict practical weld cross section shape and size. Also, in order to improve the prediction accuracy of HAZ hardness distribution, it was essential to consider 2 CCT(Continuous Cooling Transformation) diagrams in calculating volume fraction of transformed phases. One is the peak temperature being around melting temperature. The other is the peak temperature being around metallurgical transformation temperature.

In this work, thermo-elastic stability behavior of laminated cross-ply elliptical cylindrical shells subjected to uniform temperature rise is studied employing the finite element approach based on higher-order theory that accounts for the transverse shear and transverse normal deformations, and nonlinear in-plane displacement approximations through the thickness with slope discontinuity at the layer interfaces. The combined influence of higher-order shear deformation, shell geometry and non-circularity on the prebuckling thermal stress distribution and critical temperature parameter of laminated elliptical cylindrical shells is examined.

Understanding of heat generation in semiconductor devices is important in the thermal management of integrated circuits and in the analysis of the device physics. Scanning thermal microscope was used to measure the temperature and the electric potential distribution on the cross-section of an operating metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). The temperature distributions were measured both in DC and AC modes in order to take account of the leakage current. The measurement results showed that as the drain bias was increased the hot spot moved to the drain. The density of the iso-potential lines near the drain increased with the increase in the drain bias.

A field test was peformed to estimate the thermal performance of the forced convection electric air heater by the experiment. Air temperature, flow rate and electrical power input were measured with the related measurement sensors, and acquisition methods for the measured data were studied to effectively estimate the thermal performance of the tested air heater. To determine the mean air temperature at the flow cross-section, measuring positions were chosen by considering the flow velocity profile and the equally divided cross-sectional area. From the experimental results, thermal efficiency is obtained as an indication of the tested electric air heater performance.
