A detailed geothermal characteristics survey with numerical simulations of the heat transfer in a site for ground source heat pump system is necessary for deploying a shallow geothermal utilization system. Density, specific heat, thermal diffusivity, and thermal conductivity are measured on 91 core samples from a 300 m deep borehole in KIGAM(Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources). The heat flow is estimated from the thermal gradient and average thermal conductivity and the correlation between fracture system and hydraulic conductivity is analyzed. From the obtained ground information of the study site the performance of the ground heat pump system can be analyzed with some detailed numerical simulations for seasonal heat pump operation skill and optimal system design techniques.

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are among one of the promising technologies for efficient and clean energy. SOFCs offer several advantages over other types of fuel cells under relatively high temperatures (600℃ to 800℃). However, the thermal behavior of SOFC stacks at high operating temperatures is a serious issue in SOFC development because it can be associated with detrimental thermal stresses on the life span of the stacks. The thermal behavior of SOFC stacks can be influenced by operating or material properties. Therefore, this work aims to investigate the effects of the thermal conductivity of each component (anode, cathode, and electrolyte) on the thermal behavior of samarium-doped ceria-based SOFCs at intermediate temperatures. Computational fluid dynamics is used to simulate SOFC operation at 600℃. The temperature distributions and gradients of a single cell at 0.7 V under different thermal conductivity values are analyzed and discussed to determine their relationship. Simulations reveal that the influence of thermal conductivity is more remarkable for the anode and electrolyte than for the cathode. Increasing the thermal conductivity of the anode by 50% results in a 23% drop in the maximum thermal gradients. The results for the electrolyte are subtle, with a ~67% reduction in thermal conductivity that only results in an 8% reduction in the maximum temperature gradient. The effect of thermal conductivity on temperature gradient is important because it can be used to predict thermal stress generation.

Parametric study was performed using the SCW numerical model for evaluating the performance of the SCW. The five ground related parameters, which are porosity, hydraulic conductivity, thermal conductivity, specific heat, geothermal gradient, and five SCW design parameters, which are pumping rate, well depth well diameter, dip tube diameter, bleeding rate, were used in the study. Numerical simulations were performed for short-term (24-hour) simulation. The study results indicate that the parameters that have important influence on the performance of SCW were hydraulic conductivity, thermal conductivity, geothermal gradient, pumping rate, and bleeding rate. Overall, this study showed that various factors had a cumulative influence on the performance of the SCW, and a numerical simulation can be used to accurately predict the performance of the SCW.

고체상태에서 열에너지과 전기에너지를 직접적이고 가역적으로 변환할 수 있는 열전소재는 전기전도특성인 전기전도도 및 제벡계수와 열전도특성인 열전도도에 의해 그 성능이 결정된다. 하지만 전기전도도, 제벡계수, 열전도도는 소재의 조성, 결정구조 및 전자구조에 의해 결정되며, 서로 상관관계를 나타내기 때문에 성능 증대를 위한 효과적인 전략수립에 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 열전소재의 성능과 관련한 수식에 대한 이해를 바탕으로 실험 결과와 연계하여 열전도도 저감 관점에서 효과적인 결함제어 기반 열전소재 성능 증대 전략을 수립할 수 있는 방법론을 제공하고자 한다.

We compared relative importance of thermal conductivity and initial ground temperature in designing borehole heat exchanger network and also we test accuracy of ground temperature estimation in thermal response test using a proven 3-D T-H modeler. The effect of error in estimating ground temperature on calculated total length of borehole heat exchanger was more than 3 times larger than the case of thermal conductivity in maximum 20% error range. Considering 10% of error in estimating thermal conductivity is generally acceptable, we have to define the initial ground temperature within 5% confidence level. Utilizing the mean annual ground surface temperature and the geothermal gradient map compiled so far can be a economic way of estimating ground temperature with some caution. When performing thermal response test for estimating ground temperature as well as measuring thermal conductivity, minimum 100 minutes of ambient circulation is required, which should be even more in case of very cold and hot seasons.

Porous carbon materials were prepared with a thermal treatment of coal tar pitch at 550 in the Ar gas. Growth, merger, and distribution of pore were characterized with scanning electron microscopy as variation ascending temperature gradient and chamber pressure. After graphitizing at the 2600 (1 hr.), walls and connecting parts between pores were investigated with X-ray diffraction patterns. Wall thickness and pore size decreases as increasing ascending temperature gradient, and pore size becomes homogeneous. Graphite quality and thermal conductivity become higher due to the enhanced orientation of walls and connecting parts between pores.

Effective thermal conductivities and pressure-drop-related properties of aluminum foam metals have been measured. The effects of porosity and cell size in the aluminum foam metal are investigated in detail. The porosity of the foam metal, considered in the present study, varies from 0.89 to 0.96 and the cell size from 0.65㎜ to 2.5㎜. The effective thermal conductivity is evaluated by comparing the temperature gradient of the foam metal with that of the thermal conductivity-known material. The pressure drop in the foam metal is measured by a highly precise electric manometer while air is flowing through the aluminum foam metal in the channel. The results obtained indicate that the effective thermal conductivities are found to be increased with a decrease in the porosity while the effective thermal conductivities ire little affected by the cell size at a fixed porosity. However, the pressure drop is strongly affected by the cell size as well as the porosity. It is seen that the pressure drop is increased as the cell size becomes smaller, as expected. The minimum pressure drop is obtained in the porosity 0.94 at a fixed cell size. A new correlation of the pressure drop is proposed based on the permeability and Ergun's coefficient for the aluminum foam metal.

The characteristics of geothermal resources in Korea was roughly estimated using hot springs, 580 geothermal gradients and 338 heat flow data. In the aspect of hot springs with geologic structure, location of hot springs coincide with fault zone, especially younger age of Cretaceous to Tertiary. In the aspect of geothermal gradients, Pohang area shows the highest geothermal gradient anomaly, which is covered with unconsol idated rock of low thermal conductivity preserving the residual heat from igneous activity or radioactivity elements decay. In the aspect of heat flow density, high anomaly can be found along the zone connecting Uljin-Pohang-Busan on the southeastern part of Korean peninsula at which big fault zone as Yangsan fault is well developed.

After we made the computer source code with mathematical model of Muramatsu et al. that was expressed by the set of simultaneous first-order ordinary differential equations in evaporation-pyrolysis zone of cigarette, we simulated the distribution profiles of temperature and density of flue-cured tobacco. Those equations were solved numerically with the Runge-Kutta-Gill algorithm assuming step size of 0.025mm by Muramatsu at at,, but in this study the advanced algorithm of Runge-Kutta 4th Order assuming step size of 0.0005mm. The initial conditions and physical parameters of Muramatsu et at. were used for solving them. The calculated values corresponded well with results of Muramatsu et al., especially the gradient of the temperature profile increased with smoldering speed and the thickness of the evaporation-pyrolysis zone decreased with increasing of smoldering speed. On the other hand, the temperature gradient decreased with increasing of the effective thermal-conductivity value and the thickness of the evaporation-pyrolysis zone increased with the effective thermal-conductivity value.

지금까지 열전도계수는 불포화토를 대상으로 측정하였으며 측정결과를 토대로 예측 모델의 신뢰성을 연구해 왔다. 그러나 측정 장치의 발열로 인해 불포화토에서는 함수비 구배가 발생하여 열전도계수 측정에 오차가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 포화된 점성토의 압밀에 따른 열전도계수를 연속적으로 측정하여 건조밀도와 함수비의 변화에 따른 열전도계수의 관계를 연구하였다. 열전도계수는 니들브로브로 측정하였으며 시료의 교란을 최소화하기 위해 니들브로브를 삽입한 상태에서 압밀실험을 진행하였다. 측정결과는 열전도계수 예측 모델을 이용한 결과와 비교를 통해 예측 모델의 신뢰성을 분석하였다.
