Direct Laser Melting is a prototyping process whereby a 3-D part is built layer wise by melting the metal powder with laser scanning. This process is strongly influenced by the shielding gas and the laser operating parameters such as laser power, scan rate, layering thickness, and rescanning. The shielding gas is especially important in affecting the microstructure and mechanical properties. In the current study, fabrication experiments were conducted in order to analyze the effect of shielding gas on the forming characteristics of direct laser melting. Cylindrical parts were produced from a Fe-Ni-Cr powder with a 200W fiber laser. Surface quality, porosity and hardness as a function of the layering thickness and shield gas were evaluated. By decreasing the layering thickness, the surface quality improved and porosity decreased. The selection of which shield gas, Ar or $N_2$, to obtain better surface quality, lower porosity, and higher hardness was examined. The formability and mechanical properties with a $N_2$ atmosphere are better than those parts formed under an Ar atmosphere.

본 연구는 원 및 여러가지 종횡비의 사각단면을 가지는 수평캡슐에서의 접촉융해에서 융해현상의 진행모습, 융해율 및 상부에서의 자연대류의 정성적인 경향을 고찰한 실험적 연구이다. 본 연구의 결과 Stefan수에 따라서 융해율이 증가하며, 동일한 단면적의 경우 원보다는 사각단면의 경우에 융해율이 크고, 사각단면의 경우에는 종횡비가 작을수록 융해율이 커짐을 알 수 있다. Stefan수가 각각 0.0772, 0.1287 및 0.1802일 때 원통캡슐의 경우 상부에서 자연대류가 융해율에 미치는 영향은 각각 6.1%, 8.6% 및 11.2%이다.

Solid dispersions of piroxicam were prepared by melting method using poloxamer as a carrier. The results of DSC and XRD studies showed that the amorphous farm of piroxicam coexisted with the crystalline form in the solid dispersions. However, the ratio of crystalline form of piroxicam in the solid dispersion prepared by melting method decreased in comparison with the same ratio of the solid dispersion prepared by solvent method. As the ratio of poloxamer in the solid dispersion increased, the ratio of the amorphous form of piroxicam in the solid dispersion increased. The dissolution rate of piroxicam from the solid dispersions was significantly higher than that from piroxicam powder. In comparison to the solid dispersion prepared by solvent method, the dissolution rate of piroxicam from the solid dispersion prepared by melting method was higher. As the ratio of poloxamer in the solid dispersion prepared by melting method increased, the initial dissolution rate decreased, however, the total amount dissolved at the end of the study increased.

In this study, in order to analyze the low-temperature sintering process of silver and copper nanoparticles, we calculate their melting temperatures and surface melting temperatures with respect to particle size. For this calculation, we introduce the concept of mean-squared displacement of the atom proposed by Shi (1994). Using a parameter defined by the vibrational component of melting entropy, we readily obtained the surface and bulk melting temperatures of copper and silver nanoparticles. We also calculated the absorption cross-section of nanoparticles for variation in the wavelength of light. By using the calculated absorption cross-section of the nanoparticles at the melting temperature, we obtained the laser threshold energy for the sintering process with respect to particle size and wavelength of laser. We found that the absorption cross-section of silver nanoparticles has a resonant peak at a wavelength of close to 350 nm, yielding the lowest threshold energy. We calculated the intensity distribution around the nanoparticles using the finite-difference time-domain method and confirmed the resonant excitation of silver nanoparticles near the wavelength of the resonant peak.

This study examined the natural convection heat flow characteristics of the melting process of PCM (palm oil) inside a liquid flexitank(bag) for a cargo container. A film heating element was installed on the bottom of the container, and numerical analysis was performed under heat flux conditions of 1,000 to 4,000 W/m². As a result, the melt interface of the PCM rises to a nearly horizontal state over time. In the initial stage, conduction heat transfer dominates, but gradually waves at the cell flow and melt interfaces are formed due to natural convection heat transfer. As melting progresses, the Ra number increases parabolically, and the Nu number increases linearly and has a constant value. The Nu number rises slowly under low heat flux conditions, whereas under high heat flux conditions, the Nu number rises rapidly. As the heat flux increases, the internal temperature oscillation of the liquid phase after melting increases. However, under high heat flux conditions, excess heat exceeding the latent heat is generated, and the temperature of the molten liquid is raised, so the increase in melting rate decreases. Therefore, the appropriate heating element specification applied to a 20-ton palm oil container is 2,000 W/m².

Urea-SCR system is the selective catalytic reduction to reduce nitrogen oxides ($NO_x$) emitted from diesel vehicles. The objective of this study is numerical analysis of 3-dimensional unsteady melting problems of frozen urea by using an electric heater. It can be applied to determine capacity of power with respect to time and the location of the urea suction pipe in urea storage tank. The study includes the change of liquid volume fraction, temperature profiles and a influence of natural convection by using the commercial software STAR-CCM+(v7.06). The accuracy of the numerical analysis is estimated by comparisons with experimental data. After validation, a numerical analysis for freezing urea is conducted with four different heating power. From the results, it was found that relation of velocity of phase interface and amount of melting urea by increasing heating power in a container. There is also a difference in trend between velocity of phase interface and amounts of melting urea because of effect of natural convection.

Direct laser melting(DLM) is an additive manufacturing process that can produce parts by solidification of molten metallic powder layer by layer. The properties of the fabricated parts strongly depend on characteristics of the metallic powder. Atomized powders having spherical morphology have commonly been used for DLM. Mechanical ball-milling is a powder processing technique that can provide non-spherical solid powders without melting. The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of powder morphologies on the deposition quality in DLM. To characterize the morphological effect, the performances of spherical and non-spherical powders were compared using both single- and multi-track DLM experiments. DLM experiments were performed with various laser process parameters such as laser power and scan rate, and the deposition quality was evaluated. The surface roughness, cross-section bead shape and process defects such as balling or non-filled area were compared and discussed in this study.

This study proposes a hybrid geothermal system combined with heating mode and snow-melting mode for winter season in order to increase the annual operating efficiency of the GSHP(Ground Source Heat Pump). The purpose of this study is to get effectiveness of the hybrid geothermal system by the site experiments. In case of snow-melting only mode, the GSHP COP is 0.7 higher than system COP in average. And in case of hybrid mode, heating GSHP COP is 0.5 higher than snow-melting GSHP COP. And it is also found out that all COP obtained through measurement periods is higher than nominal COPs given by GSHP manufacturer. As a conclusion, it is clear that the proposed hybrid geothermal system is expected as a highly efficient system.

자동차 폐촉매로부터 폐촉매 중에 함유되어 있는 백금족 금속(Pt, Rh, Pd)를 회수하는 방법으로는 크게 건식법과 습식법이 현재 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 건식 용융법으로 폐촉매로부터 백금족 금속 회수하기 위한 기초 실험으로 포집금속으로 Fe와 Cu을 사용하여 폐촉매를 용융하였을 때 각각의 농도 변화를 비교함으로써 용융 조건과 적정 포집금속으로 찾는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 본 실험으로 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 Fe을 포집금속으로 히는 것이 Cu을 포집금속으로 사용하는 것보다 회수율 측면에서 유리하였으며, 용융 처리 온도는 $1,500^{\circ}C$에 비교하여 $1,600^{\circ}C$ 용융 하였을 때 슬래그 중 잔류하는 백금족 금속의 농도 변화율이 크게 향상되었다. 용융 온도 $1,600^{\circ}C$의 경우 처리 후 슬래그 중 백금족 원소인 Rh, Pd, Pt의 평균 농도는 각각 6.21 ppm, 5.98 ppm, 6.97ppm으로, 이는 용융 온도 $1,500^{\circ}C$시 보다도 슬래그 백금족 원소 중 Rh와 Pd는 농도변화율 측면에서 각각 50.58%, 55.31%향상되었다. 그러나 폐촉매 중의 Pt의 초기농도가 12.9 ppm으로 낮아 용융처리 후 농도변화율의 비교가 어려웠다.
