Evacuated powder insulations have long been known to have better thermal performance than existing commercially available insulators, such as fiber glass and CFC-blown foam. To make a composite powder panel, a series of individually evacuated panels was encapsulated in a rigid closed cell foam matrix. The panels were encapsulated in a thin glass sheet barrier to preserve the vacuum. The thermal conductivity of the individual panel was found to be $0.0062W/m^{\circ}K$ by experiment and the polyurethane foam above had a thermal conductivity of $0.024W/m^{\circ}K$. In this study, numerical analysis using finite element method was carried out to investigate insulation performance of rigid foam/evacuated powder composite panel with respect to panel geometries such as panel pitch, panel aspect ratio and panel area ratio. Numerical analysis has indicated that more optimal vacuum panel geometries, much lower overall thermal conductivities can be achieved.

태양전지 모듈의 봉지재로 사용되는 EVA(Ethylene-Vinyl acetate)는 외부의 환경으로부터 태양전지를 보호해주는 역할을 한다. 하지만 frame의 실링재나 glass edge 부분의 결함으로 인해 수분이 침투되어 모듈의 내부자재에 영향을 미치게 되며, 모듈의 효율 감소나 수명 단축의 원인이 된다. 이러한 결함을 줄이기 위해서는 EVA의 crosslinking degree, 절연 저항 특성을 향상시키는 것이 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 EVA의 crosslinking degree를 보기 위해 soxhlet extraction method를 이용하여 gel content를 측정하였으며, 라미네이션 과정 중 curing time에 따른 gel content 변화를 확인하였다. 또한 이 실험을 바탕으로 gel content에 따른 절연 저항을 측정하여 EVA의 crosslinking degree에 의한 절연 저항 특성을 확인하였다.

최근에 초전도 산업과 저온 작동 정밀 센서 기술의 발전으로 극저온 냉동기 또는 극저온 한제에 의해 냉각된 저온 용기의 저온 유지 기술이 필요하게 되었다. 또한 의료용 MRI, 야간 투시경용 적외선 센서, 이동통신무선기지국용 초전도 필터 등과 같이 일반인들도 극저온을 이용하게 되어 보다 사용하기 쉽고 안정적인 저온용기가 요구되고 있다. 저온용기의 저온 유지 기술은 진공 및 복사 단열 기술 뿐만 아니라 극저온 발생기술과 진공 발생 기술이 같이 고려되어야 하는 복합기술로서 앞으로 전자, 정보 통신, 나노, 바이오 산업 등에도 널리 활용될 수 있는 기반 기술로 자리 매김 할 것으로 보여 관련 연구자들의 많은 노력과 관심이 요구된다.

In this paper, polyimide thin films are fabricated by vapor deposition polymerization method appling to the interlayer insulator of semiconductor device, and are investigated in detail. It is found that the packing density and uniformity of films deposited by thermal evaporation are increased according to curing temperature. The resistivity, breakdown strength, relative permitivity, and dielectric loss are $3.2\tomes10^{15}\Omega$cm, 4.61 MV/cm, 2.9(10kHz) at $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. This thin films can be endured at $230^{\circ}C$ for 20,000 hours. Finally, we conclude that the thin films having the characteristics similar to those of $SiO_2$ can be used as an insulation films between layers of semiconductor device.

Restrictions on the emissions of nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon dioxide, and particulate matter from marine engines are being tightened. Each of these emissions requires different reduction technologies, which are costly and require many pieces of equipment to meet the requirements. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel has a great advantage in reducing harmful emissions emitted from ships. Therefore, the marine engine application of LNG fuel is significantly increasing in new ship buildings. Accordingly, this study analyzed the internal support structure, insulation type, and fuel supply piping system of a 35 m3 International Maritime Organization C type pressurized storage tank of an LNG-fueled ship. Analysis of the heat transfer characteristics revealed that A304L stainless steel has a lower heat flux than A553 nickel steel, but the effect is not significant. The heat flux of pearlite insulation is much lower than that of vacuum insulation. Moreover, the analysis results of the constraint method of the support ring showed no significant difference. A553 steel containing 9% nickel has a higher strength and lower coefficient of thermal expansion than A304L, making it a suitable material for cryogenic containers.

In this study, in order to prevent the frost damage of the concrete, the characteristics of the form using heating sheet utilizing the chemical reaction of quicklime and the insulation were evaluated through experiments at low temperature. In the case of form at $-10^{\circ}C$, the form with attached heating sheet showed a temperature history of more than $10^{\circ}C$ higher than that of wood form at the early of concreting due to heat of the quicklime in the heating sheet. In the case of the insulated form, the concrete was kept at a high temperature by preserving the hydration heat. When the heating sheet and the isopink(extruded polystyrene) were attached together on the form, the effect was the same as that of the vacuum insulation. The compressive strength of the form with vacuum insulation and form with isopink, heating sheet as measured about 5 MPa at age 3. The experimental in Mongolia, as with the pervious results, the form with the heating sheet and the insulation showed the highest temperature history over $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours. Therefore, it was confirmed that the heating sheet and insulation are attached to the form, which helps the concrete strength development at low temperature by heat generation and the insulation effect.

Thermal analysis of cryogenic-capable vessels with insulations have been carried out to store liquid hydrogen($LH_2$). The combined insulations of MLI(Multi-Layer Insulation) and VCS(Vapor-Cooled Shield) under high vacuum are considered in the analysis for various volumes of vessels. Vapor-Cooled Shields(VCS) are installed at cylinder wall as well as disc side of the $LH_2$ vessels. The results indicate that optimal distribution of boiloff vapor from $LH_2$ vessel into two sides of VCS exists based on the evaporation loss. As the volume of $LH_2$ vessel is increased, mass flow rate of boiloff is increased while the evaporation loss per unit volume is decreased.

Thermal analysis has been performed to design a high-performance $LH_2$ vessel with about 1% per day evaporation loss. Analysis includes the combined insulations of MLI(Multi-Layer Insulation) and VCS (Vapor-Cooled Shield) under high vacuum. Combined insulation of MLI and VCS shows the existence of optimal location of VCS to minimize evaporation loss. Comparison of parallel-type DVCS (Double Vapor-Cooled Shield) and serial-type DVCS is also made to show the effectiveness of the system. The results indicate that the serial-type DVCS vessel is better than the parallel-type DVCS vessel with respect to overall evaporation loss. The combined insulation of SVCS (Single Vapor-Cooled Shield) with a partial MLI can give a similar performance characteristics compared to that with MLI and DVCS.

VCB (Vacuum Circuit Breaker), with the strong arc extinction capability in switching the source of an induction motor, occurs the severe switching surge voltage which can cause the breakdown or the deterioration of motor insulation. Therefore, a method which reduces surge voltage across motor windings is necessary. So, it is analyzed that fast-rise-time surges resulting from VCB switching operations give rise to severe voltage stress on turn insulation. Additionally, the switching surge simulation algorithms using EMTP are developed, and C, R values of surge suppressor minimizing the steep-fronted stress in winding insulation surges are calculated.
