A simplified model for an isolated aluminum particle burning in air is presented. Burning process consists of two stages, ignition and quasi-steady combustion (QSC). In ignition stage, aluminum which is inside of oxide film melts owing to the self heating called heterogeneous surface reaction (HSR) as well as the convective and radiative heat transfer from ambient air until the particle temperature reaches melting point of oxide film. In combustion stage, gas phase reaction occurs, and quasi-steady diffusion flame is assumed. For simplicity, 1-dimesional spherical symmetric condition and flame sheet assumption are also used. Extended conserved scalar formulations and modified Shvab-Zeldovich functions are used that account for the deposition of metal oxide on the surface of the molten aluminum. Using developed model, time variation of particle temperature, masses of molten aluminum and deposited oxide are predicted. Burning rate, flame radius and temperature are also calculated, and compared with some experimental data.

Small-scale shear flows are ubiquitous in the universe, and astrophysical plasmas are often magnetized. We study the thermal condensation instability in magnetized plasmas with shear flows in relation to filamentary structure formation in cool structures in the universe, representatively solar prominences and supernova remnants. A linear stability analysis is extensively performed in the framework of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) with radiative cooling, plasma heating and anisotropic thermal conduction to find the eigenfrequencies and eigenfunctions for the unstable modes. For a shear velocity less than the Alfven velocity of the background plasma, the eigenvalue with the maximum growth rate is found to correspond to a thermal condensation mode, for which the density and temperature variations are anti-phased (of opposite signs). Only when the shear velocity in the k-direction is near zero, the eigenfunctions for the condensation mode are of smooth sinusoidal forms. Otherwise each eigenfunction for density and temperature is singular and of a discrete form like delta functions. Our results indicate that any non-uniform velocity field with a magnitude larger than a millionth of the Alfven velocity can generate discrete eigenfunctions of the condensation mode. We therefore suggest that condensation at discrete layers or threads should be quite a natural and universal process whenever a thermal instability arises in magnetized plasmas.

The information indicating device plays an important part in the information times. Recently, the classical CRT (Cathod Ray Tube) display is getting transferred to the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) one which is a kind of the FPDs (Flat Panel Displays). The OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) display of the FPDs has many advantages for the low power consumption, the luminescence in itself, the light weight, the thin thickness, the wide view angle, the fast response and so on as compared with the LCD one. The OLED has lately attracted considerable attention as the next generation device for the information indicators. And also it has already been applied for the outside panel of a mobile phone, and its demand will be gradually increased in the various fields. It is manufactured by the vapor deposition method in the vacuum state, and the uniformity of thin film on the substrate depends on the temperature distribution in the point-cell source. This paper describes the basic concepts that are obtained to design the point-cell source using the computational temperature analysis. The grids are generated using the module of AUTOHEXA in the ICEM CFD program and the temperature distributions are numerically obtained using the STAR-CD program. The temperature profiles are calculated for four cases, i.e., the charge rate for the source in the crucible, the ratio of diameter to height of the crucible, the ratio of interval to height of the heating bands, and the geometry modification for the basic crucible. As a result, the blowout phenomenon can be shown when the charge rate for the source increases. The temperature variation in the radial direction is decreased as the ratio of diameter to height is decreased and it is suggested that the thin film thickness can be uniformed. In case of using one heating band, the blowout can be shown as the higher temperature distribution in the center part of the source, and the clogging can appear in the top end of the crucible in the lower temperature. The phenomena of both the blowout and the clogging in the modified crucible with the nozzle-diffuser can be prevented because the temperature in the upper part of the crucible is higher than that of other parts and the temperature variation in the radial direction becomes small.

인체에 유해한 질소산화물($NO_x$)의 생성을 억제하면서 열효율을 높일 수 있는 새로운 버너의 개념으로 촉매 버너가 제안되었고 본 연구에서는 대표적인 에너지 다소비 설비인 건조기에 사용하기 위한 촉매버너를 개발하였다. 산업용 건조기에 활용하기 위해 촉매버너는 평평한 매트 형태로 제작되어 열전달 면적을 극대화하였고 밀폐 공간인 건조실에 활용하기 위하여 예혼합 연소방식을 적용하였다. 새로 개발된 촉매 버너를 산업용 건조기에 적용하여 실험한 결과 열에너지가 원적외선 형태로 공급되어 감율건조 영역에서 식품과 같은 유기물을 효과적으로 건조할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 건조기의 열효율은 건조속도보다 피건조물의 함수율에 보다 큰 상관관계를 나타내었다.
