  • In this paper, identifier for thermal storage system using multi-layer feedforward neural network (MFNN) is designed. It is very difficult to control thermal storage system, since thermal storage system is nonlinear and its time constant is very large. Thus, in the MFNN, delta-bar-delta algorithm for high running speed and 2-bit status input are used. Also hardware using microprocessor for identifier is developed. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method can predict temperature more accurately.

  • We discussed the thermal analysis for recording media with the variation of the laser pulse duration and the power and the temperature distribution for the optimized Te-based antireflection structure by using the computer calculations. If the radial diffusion of heat is negligible, we can calculate the maximum temperature at the spot center in recording layer by Simple Method, and the temperature profile considering the specific heat and the latent heat by Numerical Method. As a result, the effect of the heat sinking which acted as a loss for the hole formation can be minimized by introducing the pulse of the hole formation duration( $\tau$ ) shorter than the thermal time constant( $\tau$$\sub$D/) of dielectric layer. This requirments can be satisfied as using the dielectric thickness of the 7nd ART condition or the dielectric materials with low thermal diffusivity.

  • The main objective of nuclear reactor safety is to maintain the nuclear fuel in a thermally safe condition with enough safety margins during normal operation and anticipated operational occurrences. In this research, core flow bypass is studied under the conditions of the unavailability of safety systems. As core bypass occurs, the core flow rate is assumed to decrease exponentially with a time constant of 25 s to new steady state values of 20, 40, 60, and 80% of the nominal core flow rate. The thermal hydraulic code PARET is used through these calculations. Reactor thermal hydraulic stability is reported for all cases of core flow bypass.

  • Outcomes of the project "Comprehensive Verification of the FALCON Code for Calculation of Nuclear Fuel Temperature" relating to calculation of fuel temperature during relatively fast thermal transients are presented. Good prediction capabilities of the FALCON MOD01 code coupled with the GRSW-A code are shown as applied to the data of the TF3 and TF5 tests from the Transient Temperature Experiment IFA-507. The IFA-507 related dataset of the OECD/NEA International Fuel Performance Experiments (IFPE) Database is extended by the reconstructed dynamics of the axial power distribution in the rods during the transient phase of the experiment. Based on the code calculation, the time constant of the thermal fuel response to a power transient is estimated.

  • In PDP industry, the dielectrics and barrier ribs have been required with low dielectric constant, low melting point and Pb-free composition due to the low power consumption, low signal delay time and the environment restriction. We were studied with $B_2O_3-Al_2O_3$-SrO glass systems about optical, thermal and dielectric properties. The glass forming region of the $B_2O_3-Al_2O_3$-SrO glass systems was narrow due to the amount of the glass former $(B_2O_3)$. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the glasses was at $550{\sim}590^{\circ}C$. The glasses have 6~8 for the dielectric constant. Furthermore, the transmittance of the glasses was over 80% on the range of the visible ray. From the results, the glasses of the $B_2O_3-Al_2O_3$-SrO glass systems should enable to be a good candidate of the PDP devices for information display with low dielectric constant. The aim of this study is to give a fundamental result of new glass system for low dielectric constant in the information display.

  • In this study, the thermal degradation process has been investigated at various reaction temperature$(350{\sim}400^{\circ}C)$ and times$(30{\sim}120\;min)$ in order to recycle waste plastic films as solid state wax. Waste plastic films were easily melted by adding a small amount of waxes. The effects of wax addition and nitrogen flow rate on their thermal degradation properties were investigated. FT-IR, GPC and viscometer were used to analyze properties of the solid wax including the structure, molicular weight distribution and melt viscosity. The average molecular weight of solid wax was decreased with increasing the reaction time, temperature and amount of wax added, Also, the viscosity of solid wax decreased with increasing the stirring speed at a constant reaction temperature and time, and its viscosity got close to zero above $390^{\circ}C$.

  • The paper presents a numerical solution to the problem of a hot rigid indenter sliding over a thermoelastic Winkler foundation with a thermal contact resistance at constant speed. It is shown analytically that no steady-state solution can exist for sufficiently high temperature or sufficiently small normal load or speed, regardless of the thermal contact resistance. However the steady state solution may exist in the same situation if the thermal contact resistance is considered. This means that the effect of the large values of temperature difference and small value of force or velocity which occur at no steady state can be lessened due to the thermal contact resistance. When there is no steady state, the predicted transient behavior involves regions of transient stationary contact interspersed with regions of separation regardless of the thermal contact resistance. Initially, the system typically exhibits a small number of relatively large contact and separation regions, but after the initial transient, the trailing edge of the contact area is only established and the leading edge loses contact, reducing the total extent of contact considerably. As time progresses, larger and larger numbers of small contact areas are established, unlit eventually the accuracy of the algorithm is limited by the discretization used.

  • The pulse detonation engine (PDE) has recently expected as a new aerospace propulsion system. The PDE system has high thermal efficiency because of its constant-volume combustion and its simple tube structure. We measured thrust of single-tube pulse detonation rocket (PDR) by two methods using the PDR-Engineering Model (full scale model) for ground testing. The first involved measuring the displacement of the PDR-EM by laser displacement meter, and the second involved measuring the time-averaged thrust by combining a load cell and a spring-damper system. From these two measurements, we obtained 130.1 N of time-averaged thrust, which corresponds to 321.2 sec of effective specific impulse (ISP). As well, we measured the heat flux in the wall of PDE tubes. The heat flux was approximately 400 ㎾/$m^2$. We constructed the PDR-Flight Mode] (PDR-FM). In the vertical flight test in a laboratory, the PDR-FM was flying and keeping its altitude almost constant during 0.3 sec.

  • The relationship between the amount of deposited-Zn and the adhesion of Zn film has beend investigated. This study changed the mild steel substrate temperature range of $100^{\circ}C$~$250^{\circ}C$, with the aim of studying the adhesion of Zn film coated by PVD on substrates in 10-2~10-3torr and deoxidant gas atmospheres 50%H2~50%N2 and 75%H2+25%N2. The result revealed that the adhesion of Zn film was remarkably good in a 75% H2+25%N2 gas atmosphere as well as deoxidant time was short, and with increasing the substrate tempera-ture up to $250^{\circ}C$. Whiled the amount of deposition tended to increase linearly with time at constant evaporation temperature. It was almost constant when the substrate temperature was lower than $200^{\circ}C$, slightly decreased between $200^{\circ}C$ and $250^{\circ}C$ and significantly decreased at $300^{\circ}C$.
