The Thermal Barrier Coation(TBC) to improve the that barrier and wear resistant propenrty in high temperature ofthe aircraftength between the accumlation of the aircraft engine and the automobile engine has usually the two layer structure. One is a creamic top layer for heat insulation and the other is a metal bond layer to facilitate the bond strength between the top ceramic layer and the substrate. But, the coated layers should be peeled off because of the accumulation of the thermal stress by the differance of the thermal expantion coefficient between metal and ceramics in a hrat cyclic environment. In this study, the intermediate layer by plasm spray process was introduced to reduce the thermal stress. The powders of plasm spray coating were the Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ), the Magnesia Stabillized Zirconia(MSZ) and NiCrAlY. the intermediate layer was sprayed with the powders of the bond cast for the purpose of test were executed. The high temperature wear resistance tends to decreasnceee wear and thermal shock test were exeucuted. The high temperature were resistance of the YSZ TBC is better that of the MSZ TBC. The wearrsistance tends to decrease accoring to incresing the temperature between $400^{\circ}C$to $600^{\circ}C$. The thermal shock life of the 3 layer TBC with YSZ top casting was the most outstanding thermal shock rsisstasnce. This means that the intermediate layer should play an importnat roll to alleviate the diffrerence of the thermal expansion coef frcients between metallic layer and cermics layer.

Thermal shock behavior of porous ceramic nozzles with various pore sizes for continuous casting process of steel was investigated in terms of physical properties and microstucture. Porous nozzle samples with a composition of $Al_2O_3$-$SiO_2$-$ZrO_2$ were fabricatedby adding various sizes of graphite as the pore forming agent. As the graphite size increased from 45~75 to 150~180 ${\mu}m$, both the resulting pore size and the flexural strength also increased. A thermal shock test was carried out at temperatures (${\Delta}$T) of 600, 700, 800, and 900$^{\circ}C$. Microstructure analysis revealed a small number of cracks on the sample with the largest mean pore size of 22.32 ${\mu}m$. In addition, increasing the pore size led to a smaller decrease in both pressure drop and elastic modulus. In conclusion, controlling the pore size can enhance thermal shock behavior.

In this study, we investigated the efficient FE modelling techniques for thermal stress analysis of the exhaust manifold subject to thermo-mechanical cyclic loadings. At first, full engine model was considered to identify the critical locations and their results were compared to failure site shown by the engine bench test. And the equivalent system model was proposed based on the mechanical behavior of the full engine model. The weak areas of both FE models show a good agreement with the experimental crack location. As a result, a simplified modelling methodology was verified to estimate the thermo-mechanical behaviors of the exhaust manifold under thermal shock test condition.

Many researches related to the reliability of Pb-free solder joints with PCB (printed circuit board) surface finish under thermal or vibration stresses are in progress, because the electronics is operating in hash environment. Therefore, it is necessary to assess Pb-free solder joints life with PCB surface finish under thermal and mechanical stresses. We have investigated 4-points bending fatigue lifetime of Pb-free solder joints with OSP (organic solderability preservative) and ENIG (electroless nickel and immersion gold) surface finish. To predict the bending fatigue life of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder joints, we use the test coupons mounted 192 BGA (ball grid array) package to be added the thermal stress by conducting thermal shock test, 500, 1,000, 1,500 and 2,000 cycles, respectively. An 4-point bending test is performed in force controlling mode. It is considered that as a failure when the resistance of daisy-chain circuit of test coupons reaches more than $1,000{\Omega}$. Finally, we obtained the solder joints fatigue life with OSP and ENIG surface finish using by Weibull probability distribution.

Thermal shock resistance of 80Al2O3-20Al composite and monolithic alumina ceramics was compared. Fracture strength was measured by using a 4-pont bending test after quenching. Thermal stresses of the ceramics and ceramic-metal composites were calculated using a finite element analysis. The bending strength of the Al2O3 ceramics decreased catastropically after quenching from 20$0^{\circ}C$ to $0^{\circ}C$. The bending strength of the composite also decreased after quenching from 200~2$25^{\circ}C$, but the strength reduction was much smaller than for Al2O3. The maximum thermal stress occured in the monolithic alumina ceramics when exposed to a temperature difference of 20$0^{\circ}C$ was 0.758 GPa. The same amount of stress occured in the Al2O3-Al composite when the temperature difference of 205$^{\circ}C$ used.

Ground test of model Scramjet engine was performed with T4 free-piston shock tunnel at University of Queensland, Australia. Test condition of free stream was Mach 7.6 at 31 km altitude. With this condition, variation effects of fuel equivalence ratio, cavity, cowl setting were investigated. In the results, supersonic combustion or thermal choking was observed depending on the amount of fuel. Cavity and W-shape cowl showed early ignition and enhanced mixing respectively.

Porcelain with high thermal shock resistance was successfully fabricated by a lithium solution infiltration method with a lithium hydroxide solution. Lithium hydroxide solutions having various lithium concentrations were infiltrated into pre-sintered porcelain bodies. The porcelain sample infiltrated by the 9 wt% lithium solution and heat treated at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 1 h showed a low thermal expansion coefficient of $1.0{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$ with excellent thermal shock resistance. The highly thermally resistant porcelain had a well-developed ${\beta}$-spodumene phase with the general phases observed in porcelain. Furthermore, the porcelain showed a denser structure of $2.41g/cm^3$ sintering density and excellent whiteness in comparison with commercial thermally resistible porcelains. The lithium hydroxide in the samples readily reacted with moisture, and liquid phase reactants were formed during the fabrication process. In the case of an excess amount of lithium in the sample body, the lithium reactants were forced to the surface and re-crystallized at the surface, leaving large pores beneath the surface. These phenomena resulted in an irregular structure in the surface area and led to cracking in samples subjected to a thermal shock test.

A turbocharger is subjected to rapid temperature changes during thermal cyclic loads. In order to predict the thermo-mechanical failures, it's very important to estimate temperature distributions under the thermal shock test. This paper suggest the finite element techniques with the temperature histories, a constitutive material model and the mechanical constraints to calculate the thermal stresses and plastic strain distributions for the turbine housing. The first step was to develop a simple coupon approach to represent the failure mechanism of the classical design shapes and secondly applied the actual turbocharger to predict and validate the weak locations under the physical engine test.

The pull strength and fracture mechanism were investigated to evaluate the reliability and compatibility of Sn-8Zn-3Bi joints, the solder paste on lead and lead-free plating under thermal shock conditions. At the Sn-8Zn-3Bi solder joint, no crack initiation was observed during thermal shock test. After 1000 cycles, the strength of the solder joint decreased not sharply but reduced gradually compared with initial conditions. The decrement of strength was affected by ${\gamma}-Cu_5Zn_8$ IMC growth which caused the IMC fracture on the fracture surface and a change in fracture mode and initial crack point. Clearly, the Sn-8Zn-3Bi solder shows good reliability properties and compatibility with lead-free plated Cu LF under thermal shock temperatures between 248K and 423K.

일본 연구에서는 열충격 시험을 통한 태양전지의 파괴모드에 따른 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. 시편은 Photovoltaic Module을 만들기 전 3 line Ribbon을 Tabbing한 단결정 Solar Cell을 제작하였다. 열충격 시험 Test 1의 온도조건은 저온 $-40^{\circ}C$, 고온 $85^{\circ}C$, Test 2는 저온 $-40^{\circ}C$, 고온 $120^{\circ}C$에서 Ramping Time을 포함하여 각각 15분씩, 총 30분을 1사이클로 500사이클을 각각의 조건으로 수행하였다. 열충격 시험 후 Test 1에서는 4.0%의 효율 감소율과 1.5%의 Fill Factor 감소율을 확인하였으며, Test 2에서는 24.5%의 효율 감소율과 11.8%의 Fill Factor 감소율을 확인하였다. EL(Electroluminescence)촬영 및 단면을 분석한 결과, Test 1과 Test 2 시편 모두 Cell 표면 및 내부에서의 Crack이 발견되었다. 하지만, Test 2의 시험이 Test 1보다 가혹한 온도조건의 시험으로 인해 Test 1에서 나타나지 않았던, Cell 파괴를 Test 2에서 확인하였다. 결국, Test 1에서 효율의 직접적인 감소 원인은 Cell 내부에서의 Crack이며, Test 2에서는 Cell 내부에서의 Crack 및 Cell 파괴로 인한 Cell 자체의 성능저하로 효율이 크게 감소한다는 것을 본 실험을 통하여 규명하였다.
