We consider. a horizontal static liquid layer on a planar solid boundary. The layer is evaporating when the plate is heated. Vapor recoil and thermo-capillary are discussed along with the effect of mass loss and vapor convection due to evaporating liquid and non-equilibrium thermodynamic effects. These coupled systems of equations are reduced to a single evolution equation for the local thickness of the liquid layer by using a long-wave asymptotics. The partial differential equation is solved numerically.

This paper describes the design of a small size Alkali Metal Thermal to Electric Converter (AMTEC) which employs a capillary structure for recirculating sodium working fluid. The cycle is based on the simple and small capillary type ${\beta}"$ -alumina and wick tube element. The proposed cell consists of the 37 conversion elements with capillary tube of $50{\mu}m$ in diameter and the sealed cylindrical vessel of 22mm in outer diameter. Results on the cycle analysis of sodium flow and heat transfer in the cell showed that the expected power output was 4.65W and the conversion efficiency was 19% for the source temperature of 900K.

The microstructure of $ZrO_2$ toughened $Al_2O_3$ ceramics was carefully controlled so as to obtain dense and fine-grained ceramics, thereby improving the properties and reliability of the ceramics for capillary applications in semiconductor bonding technology. $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2(Y_2O_3)$ composite was produced via Ceramic Injection Molding (CIM) technology, followed by Sinter-HIP process. Room temperature strength, hardness, Young's modulus, thermal expansion coefficient and toughness were determined, as well as surface strengthening induced by the fine grained homogenous microstructure and the thermal treatment. The changes in alumina/zirconia grain size, sintering condition and HIP treatment were found to be correlated.

Artificially oxidized cysteine residues in peroxiredoxin 6 (Prx6) were detected by electrospray interface capillary liquid chromatography-linear ion trap mass spectrometry after the preparation of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE). We used Prx6 as a model protein because it possesses only two cysteine residues at the 47th and 91st positions. The spot of Prx6 on 2D-GE undergoes a basic (isoelectric point, pI 6.6) to acidic (pI 6.2) shift by exposure to peroxide due to selective overoxidation of the active-site cysteine Cys-47 but not of Cys-91. However, we detected a tryptic peptide containing cysteine sulfonic acid at the 47th position from the basic spot and a peptide containing both oxidized Cys-47 and oxidized Cys-91 from the acidic spot of Prx6 after the separation by 2D-GE. We prepared two types of oxidized Prx6s: carrying oxidized Cys-47 (single oxidized Prx6), and other carrying both oxidized Cys-47 and Cys-91 (double oxidized Prx6). Using these oxidized Prx6s, the single oxidized Prx6 and double oxidized Prx6 migrated to pIs at 6.2 and 5.9, respectively. These results suggest that oxidized Cys-47 from the basic spot and oxidized Cys-91 from the acidic spot are generated by artificial oxidation during sample handling processes after isoelectric focusing of 2D-GE. Therefore, it is important to make sure of the origin of cysteine oxidation, if it is physiological or artificial, when an oxidized cysteine residue(s) is identified.

Extensive investigations on cast to cast variations observed in steels have underlined the role of thermocapillary or surface tension driven fluid flow in welding operations. The behavior of weld pool under the electric arc is however affected by possible arc modifications linked to microchemistry variations in materials & this limits to some extent the real contribution from surface tension effects. Thus, electron beam welding with high vacuum was used to investigate thermo-capillary effects on thin austenitic stainless steels & nickel based alloys. The weld pool was monitored by video observations to estimate the importance of fluid flow during the melting & solidification phase. The results underline the importance of fluid flow on [mal solidification.

This study investigates the temperature sensitivities of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) across a broad temperature spectrum ranging from -196 ℃ to 900 ℃. We developed the FBG temperature measurement system using a high-temperature tubular furnace and liquid nitrogen to supply consistent high and low temperatures, respectively. Our research showed that the FBG temperature sensitivity changed from 1.55 to 10.61 pm/℃ in the range from -196 ℃ to 25 ℃ when the FBG was packaged with a quartz capillary. In the 25-900 ℃ range, the sensitivity varied from 11.26 to 16.62 pm/℃. Contrary to traditional knowledge, the FBG temperature sensitivity was not constant. This inconsistency primarily stems from the nonlinear shifts in the thermo-optic coefficient and thermal expansion coefficient across this temperature spectrum. The theoretically predicted and experimentally determined temperature sensitivities of FBGs encased in quartz capillary were remarkably consistent. The greatest discrepancy, observed at 25 ℃, was approximately 1.3 pm/℃. Furthermore, it was observed that at 900 ℃, the FBG was rapidly thermally erased, exhibiting variable reflected intensity over time. This study focuses on the advancement of precise temperature measurement techniques in environments that experience wide temperature fluctuations, and has considerable potential application value.

DECOVALEX 프로젝트는 고준위방사성폐기물 처분 시스템에서 발생하는 복잡한 열-수리-역학-화학적(THMC) 복합거동에 대해 수치해석을 통해 보다 더 깊이 이해하기 위해 수행되고 있는 대표적 국제공동 연구이다. 현재 DECOVALEX-2023이 7개 task를 기반으로 진행 중이며, 이 중 Task C는 Mont-Terri 지하연구시설에서 수행된 실규모 정치(FE) 시험을 대상으로 처분시스템 내 THM 복합거동을 모사하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자체개발 해석 코드인 OGS-FLAC을 활용하여 수치해석 연구를 수행하였다. 수치모델에서는 FE 시험과 같이 일정 출력의 히터를 수평으로 위치시켰으며, 주어진 계측지점에서 압력 분포, 온도 변화, 역학적 변형을 계측하였다. 완충재 내부로 유입되는 유체 흐름은 완충재의 흡입력으로 인해 발생하였으며, 주변 영역에서는 열 팽창 및 열 압력이 지배적으로 작용함을 확인하였다. 해석 결과는 향후 타 참여 그룹 및 실험 결과와 비교 검증을 수행할 계획이다.

DECOVALEX-2023 Task C에서는 6개국 9개 참여 기관들이 스위스 Mont Terri 지하처분연구시설에 서 수행된 FE 실험을 대상으로 열-수리-역학 복합거동 모사를 위한 해석코드 개발을 수행하고 있다. 현재 현장시험 결과와 비교 분석을 위한 Step 1이 진행되고 있으며, 본 연구진은 OGS-FLAC 해석 시뮬레이터를 활용하여 일련의 해석을 진행하였다. 해석 결과 히터 가열에 따른 온도 상승이 잘 구현되었고, 상 변화에 따른 완충재 내 포화도 변화를 관측할 수 있었다. 반면 완충재 흡입력의 과대평가로 완충재 내 상대습도, 온도 변화 및 Opalinus 점토암 내 압력 변화가 현장 결과와 다소간 차이를 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 완충재 흡입력이 처분시스템 해석 시 유동 해석 결과에 지배적인 영향을 미침을 확인할수 있었으며, 향후 지보재 및 초기 수압 모사 개선을 통해 향상된 결과를 도출하고자 한다. 또한, Opalinus 점토암의 열, 수리, 역학적 이방성이 잘 구현되었으며 해석 결과를 통해 OGS-FLAC 시뮬레이터의 처분시스템 해석 적용성을 확인하였다.
