An efficient method to predict the convection heat transfer coefficients on the top surface of the engine piston is proposed. The method is based on the inverse method of the thermal conduction problem and uses a numerical optimization technique. In the method, the heat transfer coefficients are numerically obtained so that the difference between analyzed temperatures from the finite element method and measured temperatures is minimized. The method can be effectively used to analyze the temperature distribution of engine pistons in case when application of prescribed-temperature boundary condition is not reasonable because of insufficient number of measured temperatures. A hollow sphere problem with an analytic solution is taken as a simple example and accuracy and efficiency is demonstrated. The method is applied to a practical large liquid petroleum gas(LPG) engine piston and the heat transfer coefficients on the top surface of the piston is successfully calculated. Resulting analyzed temperature favorably coincides with measured temperature.

The unsteady conjugate forced convection-conduction heat transfer from a plate fin is numerically studied. The external forced flow is steady but the temperature of the fin base is an exponential change with time. Therefore, the unsteady energy equations of the fluid and the fin are solved simultaneously under the conditions of equality in heat flux and temperature at the fluid-fin interface at every instant of time. Numerical results are given for various quantities of interest including the local heat transfer coefficient, the local heat flux, the total heat transfer rate and the temperature distribution of fin under the effects of the convection-conduction parameter and the ratio of thermal diffusivities. The results of the present numerical solution have been compared with those of the conventional fin theory.

The main fault in this interface is that power cable insulating materials are mainly composed of a double layered structure, XLPE/FPDM laminates in cable joint. In this parer, we instituted the interface of XLPE/EPDM laminates and then investigated the breakdown and conduction characteristics as a function of heat treatment time. The results showed that conduction current was influenced by volatile crosslinking by-products which remained inside the insulating material during the production of XLPE and EPDM, especially during heat treatment process. And conduction current of XLPE/Oil 12500cSt/EPDM was more stable than XLPE/Grease/EPDM from the long heat treatment time. AC breakdown strength of silicone oil itself from the heat treatment was changed during the 4∼12 hour heat treatment time.

Effectiveness of a 3-pass plate finned-tube heat exchanger is calculated using heat exchangelet method by changing the shape of fin and the arrangement of tubes. The alternative refrigerant R134a is taken in this study. Conduction between neighboring tubes along the fin is taken into account in addition to convection between the fin and the surrounding air. Governing equations are obtained by using energy balance in a small control volume containing a tube and fins. They are numerically solved following the tube. Effect of tube-to-tube conduction is investigated in single-phase and two-phase flows with various fin shapes and arrangements of tubes. Improvement of effectiveness by fin perforation is studied too. The results shows that perforating fins, increasing the number of tubes, and increasing the distance between neighboring tubes at the same fin area enhance the effectiveness.

Window is a critical component in the design of energy-efficient buildings. To minimize the heat loss, insulation performance of the glazing has to be improved. Manufacturing of vacuum glazing has been motivated by the possibility of making windows of very good thermal insulation properties for such applications. It is made by maintaining vacuum in the gap between two glass panes. Pillars are placed between them to withstand the atmospheric pressure. Edge covers are applied to reduce conduction through the edge. Accurate measurements have been made of the radiative heat transfer, the pillar conduction and the gas conduction using a guarded hot plate apparatus. Vacuum glazing is found to have low thermal conductance roughly below $1W/m^2K$. Among the heat transfer modes of residual gas conduction, conduction through support pillar and the radiative heat transfer between the glass panes, the last one is the most dominant to the overall thermal conductance. Vacuum glazing using very low emittance AI-coated glass has an overall thermal conductance of about $0.7W/m^2K$.

In this Paper, Insulation of current lead in the conduction-cooled DC reactor for the 1.2kV class 3 high-Tc superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) is studied. Thermal link which conducts heat energy but insulates electrical energy is selected as a insulating device for the current lead in the conduction-cooled Superconducting DC reactor. It consists of oxide free copper(OFC) sheets, Polyimide films, glass fiberglass reinforced Plastics (GFRP) plates and interfacing material such an indium or thermal compound. Through the test of dielectric strength in L$N_2$, polyimide film thickness of 125 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ is selected as a insulating material. Electrical insulation and heat conduction are contrary to each other. Because of low heat conductivity of insulator and contact area between electrical insulator and heat conductor, thermal resistance of conduction-cooled system is increased. For the reducing of thermal resistance and the reliable contact between Polyimide and OFC, thermal compound or indium can be used As thermal compound layer is weak layer in electrical field, indium is finally selected for the reducing of thermal resistance. Thermal link is successfully passed the test. The testing voltage was AC 2.5kVrms and the testing time was 1 hour.

We investigated one-dimensional thermal conduction for gypsum objects incorporating oyster shell powder. We presumed that according to the portion of oyster shell in the hybrid structure conductive characteristics of that would also change as some physicochemical properties such as volatile organic compound (VOC) adsorption were found to be changed considerably. Based on Fourier's 2nd law of heat conduction an analytical analysis in a flat slab (one axis perpendicular to an infinite plane) was performed. We found that composition of oyster shell and conduction-related coefficients and parameters could greatly influence on the thermal profile of that conduction, and some model experiments also served for it in the affirmative.

SMES systems need cryogenic cooling systems. Conduction cooling system has more effective, compact structure than cryogen. In general, 2 stage GM cryocoolers are used for conduction cooling of HTS SMES system. 1st stages of cryocoolers are used for the cooling of current leads and radiation shields, and 2nd stages of cryocoolers for HTS coil. For the effective conduction cooling of the HTS SMES system, the temperature difference between the cryocooler and HTS coil should be minimized. In this paper, a cryogenic conduction cooling system for HTS SMES is analyzed to evaluate the performance of the cooling system. The analysis is carried out for the steady state with the heat generation of the HTS coil and effects of the thermal contact resistance. The results show the effects of the heat generation and thermal contact resistance on the temperature distribution.

A superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) system has shorter response time and longer life time, and is more economical, and environment-friendly than other uninterruptible power supply (UPS). A conduction cooling system is well answer for the high temperature superconductor (HTS) SMES system. Because the conduction cooling system is simple, light and small structure. The purpose of this paper is to design and verify the effective conduction cooling system for the HTS SMES system. The analysis of heat loads in cryostat is performed. Thermal shield heat loads, temperatures of HTS coil surface and conduction Cu plate are estimated and measured.
