Purpose: The current study analyzed trends in thermal insulation performance with aging, and condensation characteristics caused by the former. Method: Thermal insulation and condensation prevention performance of an architecture were assessed using Temperature Difference Ration Inside, or TDRi. Subjects of this quantitative analysis in thermal insulation performance change due to aging included recently constructed apartments and aged apartments older than 40 years. Time series comparison and analysis were conducted to observed changes in the thermal insulation performance and condensation characteristics. Result: Analysis showed that wall insulation performance degraded with aging regardless of fortified insulating material usage or insulating material type, which caused increased danger of condensation. In addition, when fortified insulating material was installed on the connection between the walls, insulation performance degradation was lower compared to cases in which fortified materials were not used. In all cases from 1 to 10, the rate of thermal insulation performance degradation increased after 20 years of aging.

This research is to measure and analyze the thermal performance of the apartment structure and to evaluate and establish standards of thermal insulation defect in order to make the basic data necessary for determining the degree of the thermal performance degradation and for repairing and reinforcing the exterior wall of the existing apartment. The following conclusions could be derived thorough the investigation of outer wall temperature distribution and the insulation assesment experiments using a model of specimens for the apartment houses' outer walls. It was confirmed that for the thermal performance through the insulating material thicknesses 5cm, 8cm in walls, the thermal insulation thickened by 3cm, from 5cm to 8cm, but that the actual temperature difference reached only about 1 ~ 2℃. This implies that the thermal performance improvement using the thermal insulation in walls is not significant and that it is difficult to insulate the thermal bridge area.

The heat transfer function or thermal performance is the most important function of the steam generator component in nuclear power plants. The declining of thermal performance, fouling does not affect the electric power of the nuclear power plant within a certain fouling level, but it affects the output when goes beyond the governor valve wide open of the turbine. The VWO steam pressure can be predicted through the thermal performance evaluation of steam generators in the nuclear power plant. In consideration of the fouling characteristics of the steam generator, methods of the thermal performance evaluation and fouling cases are reviewed, and also the critical VWO value is estimated through the actual thermal performance evaluation. It is necessary to apply the VWO theory based on the thermal performance of the steam generators.

건설구조물 상부의 단열은 에너지 절약 건설구조물에 있어서 중요한 요건 중 하나이다. 건설구조물 최상부는 단열성뿐만 아니라 방수성능도 중요하다. 이와 같은 이유로 단열성을 확보한 방수공법의 개발이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 최근 일정 단열성능을 확보한 단열 보완형의 복합방수공법이 개발되어 해당 공법에 대한 단열성능을 평가하고자 하였다. 방수성 시험결과, 모든 시험체는 KS 표준 이상의 성능을 보여주었다. 단열성 시험결과, 스티로폼 박스가 가장 높은 온도인 $25.91^{\circ}C$, 버블시트 박스가 $17.28^{\circ}C$, 단열시트 박스가 $15.47^{\circ}C$, 단열보완형 방수시트가 $24.11^{\circ}C$로 확인되었다. 시트 접합부의 열교현상을 관찰한 결과 열교현상은 발생하지 않았다. 단열보완형 복합방수공법은 단열성능을 확보하고 있는 것으로 판단된다.

The performance modeling of a $25{\mu}m$ pitch VGA ${\mu}$-bolometer with the self-aligned thermal resistor structure is carried out. The self-aligned thermal resistor can be utilized for the maximizing the thermal resistance and the fill factor of a bolometer, so the performance improvement can be expected. From the results of the performance modeling of the micro-bolometer with self-align thermal resistor for a $25{\mu}m$ pitch $640{\times}480$ microbolometer designed with $0.6{\mu}m$ minimum feature size, the drastic improvements of NETD from 38.7 mK to 19.1 mK, responsivity of 1.9 times are expected with a self aligned thermal resistor structure. The main reason for the performance improvements with a self-aligned thermal resistor structure comes from the increasement of the thermal resistance.

Purpose: Under the purpose of presenting the adequate remodeling period for the improvement of thermal insulation performance of external walls in deteriorated buildings, the change in external wall and residential environment problem(dew condensation) due to aged deterioration after the apartments were constructed in Korea were analyzed. Method: Temperature Difference Ratio Outside(TDRo) and Heat Flow Meter(HFM) were used as measurement methods to evaluate the thermal insulation performance of deteriorated buildings. For TDR evaluation, thermo-graphic camera was used to measure and analyze the surface temperature of external wall. Also, dew condensation evaluation was analyzed using the Temperature Difference Ratio Inside(TDRi). Result: As a result of analyzing thermal performance through TDRo, the first decline point of thermal insulation performance began after 14-16 years have passed since construction was completed, and after 20 years have passed the decline point of thermal insulation performance reappeared. As a result of analyzing U-value with HFM measurement method, the decline rate of external wall's thermal insulation performance is lower than 2% in average at around 5 years after completion, and 8.7% in average at 10-15 years, and over 10.2% in average at 20 years.

The effects of composition, structure design, and coating thickness of thermal barrier coating (TBC) on thermal barrier performance were investigated by measuring the temperature differences of TBC samples. TBCs with the thin and thick top coats were used for these studies, including TBCs with rare-earth (Gd, Yb, and La) compositions. The thermal barrier performance was enhanced with increasing the thickness of top coat even for thin TBCs, indicating that the thermal barrier performance was commensurate to the thickness of top coat. On the other hand, the bi-layered TBC, which was prepared with Yb-Gd-YSZ feedstock powder, with the buffer layer of high purity 8YSZ showed a better thermal barrier performance than that of regular purity 8YSZ. The interfaces in the bi-layered TBCs had a decisive effect on the thermal barrier performance, showing the performance enhanced with increasing numbers of interfaces. However, a new structural design and an additional process should be considered to reduce stress concentrations and to ensure interface stability, respectively, for improving thermal durability in the multi-layered TBCs.

The thermal environmental chamber has been using in maintaining weather condition keeping thermal capacity under heating and cooling load fluctuation and for the performance testing of cooling system or air-conditioner on artificial envi-ronment. In ordder to make the various environmental conditions in the thermal environmental chamber the proper cooling system is necessary to eliminate the heating load produced inside the chamber and to maintain the designed environmental condition. For this reason the optimal design of cooling system and the prediction of performance is also required.

This paper investigates the thermal storage performance of the office building which has adopted an air conditioning system with its slab structure as a regenerator. Four cases of the thermal storage performance experiment were conducted. Room air temperatures, floor slab temperatures, temperatures around the air conditioning unit were logged and analyzed. The load handling capacity of the air conditioning unit and the amount of heat stored in the slab were decided from those experiments. Several efficiencies were investigated to evaluate the performance of the thermal storage. The results concluded that the slab as a regenerator is very effective in cutting down peak loads of the office building.
