본 연구에서는 경골 목조 주택 (2${\times}$4 주택, 2${\times}$6 주택), 통나무 주택 및 콘크리트 주택(내단열, 중단열, 외단열) 벽체에 대하여 유한 요소 해석으로 단열 성능을 평가하였고, 표면 결로 현상을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 벽체의 단열 성능은 정량 골조 2${\times}$6를 사용한 주택이 가장 우수하였고, 경량 골조 2${\times}$4 주택, 통나무 주택, 콘크리트 주택의 순으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 콘크리트 벽체의 내단열, 중단열, 외단열의 벽체 구성법에 따른 단열 성능의 차이는 없었으며, 콘크리트 주택에서 단열재의 사용이 필수적이었다. 3. 내부 결로의 경우 콘크리트 벽체의 외단열이 가장 우수한 결로 예방성을 보였다. 이는 외부에 설치된 단열층이 외부의 낮은 온도를 차단해 벽체 전체의 온도를 높게 유지하기 때문이었다. 표면 결로는 모든 벽체에서 나타나지 않았지만, 실내 습도가 높아진다면 콘크리트 주택의 벽체에서 발생할 가능성이 가장 높았다. 본 연구는 벽체내의 단열 성능에 관하여만 분석을 하였고, 열전달 외에 축열성능 등에 관한 고려는 하지 않았으므로 추후에는 여러 가지 복합적인 열적 성능에 관한 연구가 수행되어야 하리라고 생각한다.

Aluminum alloys are widely known as non-ferrous metal with light weight and high strength. Consequently, these materials take center stage in the aircraft and automobile industry. The Al7075 aluminum alloy is based on the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu and one of the strongest wrought aluminum alloys. Aluminum nitride has ten times higher thermal conductivity($319W/m{\cdot}K$) than Al2O3 and also has outstanding electric insulation($1{\times}1014{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$). Furthermore, it has high mechanical property (430 MPa) even though its co-efficient of thermal expansion is less than alumina For these reasons, it has great possibilities to be used for not only the field which needs high strength lightweight but also electronic material field because of its suitability to be applied to the insulator film of PCB or wafer of ceramic with high heat conduction. This paper investigates the mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of aluminum alloy Al7075 deposited with aluminum nitride thin films To improve the surface properties of Al7075 with respect to hardness, and resistance to corrosion, aluminum nitride thin films have been deposited by pulsed DC reactive magnetron sputtering. The pulsed DC power provides arc-free deposition of insulating films.

The mechanical, electrical and thermal characteristics of insulating materials may significantly affect the performance and reliability of electrical devices using superconductors. General method to provide insulating layer between coated conductors is wrapping coated conductor with Kapton tape. But uniform and compact wrapping without failure or delamination in whole coverage for long length conductor is not a simple task and need careful control. Coating of insulating layer directly on coated conductor is desirable for providing compact insulating layer rather than wrapping insulating layers around conductor. Ceramic added polymer has been widely used as an insulating material for electric machine because of its good electrical insulating properties as well as excellent heat resistance and fairy good mechanical properties. The insulating layer of coated conductor should have high breakdown voltage and possesses suitable mechanical strength and maintain adhesiveness at the cryogenic temperature where it is used and withstand stress from thermal cycling. The insulating and mechanical properties of polymer can be improved by adding functional filler. In this study, insulating layer has been made by adding ceramic particles such as $SiO_2$ to a polymer resin. The size, amount and morphology of added ceramic powder was controlled and their effect on dielectric property of the final composite was measured and discussed for optimum composite fabrication.

Shrink film is currently being used for plastic container lavels to avoid the use of glue. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle lavels also use shrink films in the same PET materials for easy recycling of PET bottles. An air layer is generated between the shrink film and PET bottle surface due to the bent shape of the bottle surface. This air layer can insulate external heat, as air has a relatively lower thermal conductivity. In this study, the insulation property of the air layer was examined by computer simulation. Two PET bottle models were used, one with and the other without an air layer between the PET bottle surface and lavel. The two bottle models were filled with cold liquid and exposed to room temperature for 6 h, and the temperatures of the contents were then compared. The results showed that the temperature of the contents in the bottle with the air layer was lower than that without the air layer by at least $2^{\circ}C$. This study suggests an effective lavel design of PET bottles while ensuring that the temperature of the bottle contents is maintained.

A comparative research on the traditional standard wood walls and other light-frame wood walls is necessary to expand the base of wooden buildings and improve consumer satisfaction. Therefore, in this research we looked for new possibilities through comparison of performance between standard wood wall and newly presented staggered stud wood wall. First, the strength characteristics of staggered stud wood walls were evaluated and the those of standard wood walls were compared. The ultimate load of the standard wall was larger than that of the staggered stud wood wall, because the cross section of the wood making up the standard wood wall was larger than that of the staggered stud wood wall. However, the statistical analysis between the two groups didn't showed a significance of 95% confidence level. This means that, staggered stud wood walls have shown the possibility of replacing the standard wood wall. Because the cross-section of the stud in the staggered stud wood walls is smaller than that of the standard wall, the material can be saved. Therefore, staggerd wood stud wall is judged to be more economical than the standard wall. In addition, since the area of the insulation also increases, improvement of the heat bridge is also expected.

Hollow silica spheres were prepared by spray drying of precursor solution of colloidal silica. The precursor solution is composed of 10-20 nm colloidal silica dispersed in a water or ethanol-water mixture solvent with additives of tris hydroxymethyl aminomethane. The effect of pH and concentrations of the precursor and additives on the formation of hollow sphere particles was studied. The spray drying process parameters of the precursor feeding rate, inlet temperature, and gas flow rate are controlled to produce the hollow spherical silica. The mixed solvent of ethanol and water was preferred because it improved the hollowness of the spheres better than plain water did. It was possible to obtain hollow silica from high concentration of 14.3 wt% silica precursor with pH 3. The thermal conductivity and total solar reflectivity of the hollow silica sample was measured and compared with those values of other commercial insulating fillers of glass beads and $TiO_2$ for applications of insulating paint, in which the glass beads are representative of the low thermal conductive fillers and the $TiO_2$ is representative of infrared reflective fillers. The thermal conductivity of hollow silica was comparable to that of the glass beads and the total solar reflectivity was higher than that of $TiO_2$.

The reduction in dielectric strength of insulating polymer material when applying electric field is known to be substantial due to the trapped carrier effect. In this study, the carrier property of Biaxially-Drawn polypropylene, which has superior heat-resistance compared to ordinary one, is examined to improve electrical characteristics by measuring TSC spectra as a function of electric field applied to a sample of ($50{\mu}m$) thickness film. The TSC spectra in the temperature range of 303-413(K) and electric field of 2-80(MV/m) have shown no observable effect below 12(MV 1m) but TSC currents of Hetero-and Homo-peaks formed from trapped space charger and space charger injected from electrode have been observed above that point, which seems eventually lead to dielectric breakdown. Finally, this study has shown the superior dielectric proporty of Biaxially-Drawn polypropylene film compared to the non-oriented one for electrical insulation.

The Small Punch Test (SPT) was developed to evaluate the softening and embrittlement of materials such as power plants and nuclear fusion reactors by taking samples in the field. Specimens used in the SPT are very thin and small disk-shaped compared to specimens for general tensile test, and thus have economic advantages in terms of miniaturization and repeatability of the test. The cryogenic SPT can also be miniaturized and has a significantly lower heat capacity than conventional universal test machines. This leads to reduced cooling and warm-up times. In this study, the cryogenic SPT was developed by modifying the existing room temperature SPT to be cooled by liquid nitrogen using a super bellows and a thermal insulation structure. Since the cryogenic SPT was first developed, basic experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of it. For the validation, aluminum alloy 6061- T6 specimens were tested for mechanical properties at room and cryogenic temperature. The results of the corrected tensile properties from the SPT experiment results were compared with known room temperature and cryogenic properties. Based on the correction results, the effectiveness of the cryogenic SPT test was confirmed, and the surface fracture characteristics of the material were analyzed using a 3d image scanner. In the future, we plan to conduct property evaluation according to the development of various alloy materials.

The inorganic insulating material was fabricated with quartzite, ordinary portland cement(OPC), lime, anhydrous gypsum and foaming agent by hydrothermal reaction. The inorganic insulating material was fabricated by using autoclave chamber under high-temperature and high-pressure. The inorganic insulating material is a porous lightweight concrete. Because of its porous structure, properties of inorganic insulating material were light-weight and high-heat insulation property. Properties of fabricated inorganic insulating material were $0.26g/cm^3$ in specific gravity, 0.4MPa in compressive strength and 0.064W/mK in thermal conductivity. In this study, the inorganic insulating material was fabricated and analyzed at different size of quartzite/OPC, various foaming reagent and functional additives to improve the properties. Consequently, polydimethylsiloxane can improve density and thermal conductivity. Especially, polydimethylsiloxane showed excellent improvement in compressive strength.
