When the operating process of delay coking is cyclically changing from 25°C to 500°C, it would usually induce the effect of heat treatment on the shell of coke drum. After a special model of the kinetic medium climbing along the inside-wall of the coke drum at a steady rate set up, the resulting two-dimensional kinetic temperature field of shell in radial and axial directions has been calculated and analyzed by FEM. The relation between the material physical property of the shell and its temperature has been considered. The results show that the radial temperature difference or the axial temperature difference caused by the cooling water is more than that caused by the hot oil. The maximum temperature difference between the inside-wall and the outside-wall is 40°C below the medium level, 30mm by the hot oil and 60 °C or 25 mm by the cooling water. The circumferential uneven temperature field, location and concave/convex or incline/bend of body have been surveyed and analyzed. The lat-circle deformation of transverse section has been discussed.

The uniformity of temperature field distribution in creep aging process is very important to the forming accuracy of components. In this paper, the temperature field distribution of 2219 aluminum alloy tank cover during aging forming is simulated by using the finite element software FLUENT, and a two-stage heating process is proposed to reduce the temperature field distribution heterogeneity. The results show that the temperature difference of the tank cover is large in the single-stage heating process, and the maximum temperature difference is above 27°C,which seriously affects the forming accuracy of the tank cover. With two-stage heating process, the temperature difference in the first stage has almost no direct impact on the forming accuracy of the top cover. In the second stage, the temperature difference of the tank cover is controlled within 10°C, compared with the single-stage heating, the maximum temperature difference is reduced by more than 17°C. The two-stage heating effectively reduces the heterogeneity of the temperature field of the top cover. The research provides technical support for the precise thermal mechanical coupling of large-scale creep aging forming components.

A variety of sodium fire generated by the leakage of liquid sodium in the FBR is common. This paper focuses on the burning process and characteristics of sodium fire in a columnar flow. About 290°C liquid sodium was injected into a 7.9 m3 stainless steel cylindrical combustion space to shape the sodium columnar fire by 0.2 MPa high pressure nitrogen. The data of temperature field for the study of burning characteristic of sodium columnar fire have been collected by the temperature acquisition system located in the combustion space. The sodium flow maintains the columnar shape at first, and disperses by hydrodynamic effects on its way down. About 64s after the initiating time of sodium ejection for this experiment, the maximum temperature of the area close to the ejection center reaches over 1200°C. And the maximum temperature appears at the space of 1–1.5m from the plate. But the high temperature lasts for a short time and reduces rapidly. The radial temperature of the area far from the sodium flow is relatively low and generally about 200°C, and maximally about 350 °C. This study is helpful to evaluate the combustion characteristics and burning process of the sodium fire in the sodium-related facilities.

A numerical study is performed to estimate on an unsteady thermal stratification phenomenon in the Shutdown Cooling System (SCS) piping branched off the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) piping of Nuclear Power Plant. In the results, turbulent penetration reaches to the 1st isolation valve. At 500sec, the maximum temperature difference between top and bottom inner wall in piping is observed at the starting point of horizontal piping passing elbow. The temperature of coolant in the rear side of the 1st isolation valve disk is very slowly increased and the inflection point in temperature difference curve for time is observed at 2700sec. At the beginning of turbulent penetration from RCS piping, the fast inflow generates the higher temperature for the inner wall than the outer wall in the SCS piping. In the case the hot-leg injection piping and the drain piping are connected to the SCS piping, the effect of thermal stratification in the SCS piping is decreased due to an increase of heat loss compared with no connection case. The hot-leg injection piping affected by turbulent penetration from the SCS piping has a severe temperature difference that exceeds criterion temperature stated in reference. But the drain piping located in the rear compared with the hot-leg injection piping shows a tiny temperature difference. In a viewpoint of designer, for the purpose of decreasing the thermal stratification effect, it is necessary to increase the length of vertical piping in the SCS piping, and to move the position of the hot-leg injection piping backward.

In the thermal design of embedded multi-chip module (MCM), the placement of chips has a significant effect on temperature field distributing, thus influences the reliability of the embedded MCM. The thermal placement optimization of chips in embedded MCM was studied in this paper, the goal of this work is to decrease temperature and achieve uniform thermal field distribution within embedded MCM. By using ANSYS the finite element analysis model of embedded MCM was developed, the temperature field distributing was calculated. Based on genetic algorithms, chips placement optimization algorithm of embedded MCM was proposed and the optimization chips placement of embedded MCM was achieved by corresponding optimization program. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained optimization chips placement, finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out to assess the thermal field distribution of the optimization chips placement in embedded MCM by using ANSYS. The result shows that without chips placement optimizing the maximum temperature and temperature difference in embedded MCM model are 87.963°C and 2.189°C respectively, by using chips placement optimization algorithm the maximum temperature drop than the original 0.583°C and the temperature difference is only 0.694°C . It turns out that the chip placement optimization approach proposed in this work can be effective in providing thermal optimal design of chip placement in embedded MCM.

Wide plates are mainly prepared through traditional cold mold continuous casting technology. A problem is cracking which caused by the non-uniform temperature field in solidification. Warm mold continuous casting is a new technology. Warm mold continuous casting of wide copper plate (section 500mm×12mm) was studies. Temperature field, solid/liquid interface and microstructure were analyzed by ProCAST software. By simulation, the optimal processing parameters: withdrawing speed was 60-80 mm/min, and the temperature of copper melt, mold and cooling water were 1200°C, 800-900oC and 20 oC, respectively. The temperature field in the width direction of the copper plate broad face was uniform, and the temperature decreased uniformly along the withdrawing direction. The temperature difference between center and edge was within 10 oC, and the temperature difference between narrow and broadfaces was within 25oC. Microstructure of plate contained ‘bamboo-like’ grains along the withdrawing direction.

Aiming at the structural feature of starting water separator, a 3-D finite element model of temperature field is proposed. The starting water separator of a Ultra Supercritical Boiler(USB) has been numerically simulated by using of finite element soft ware Ansys. The boundary condition of the separator is determined. All of the working conditions are simulated. The results have the same distribution laws with the monitoring data of power plant. The maximum temperature difference between out wall and inner wall occurs in the temperature-rise period during the cold start-up, but the value between top wall and bottom wall is very lower. The simulation results can not only provide a basis for the thermal stress analysis and the life loss calculation but also provide rationalization proposal for the plant safe operation.

A Multi-Purpose Solar Food Processor (MCSFP) was developed to carryout both cooking and drying operations simultaneously. MCSFP was tested in three different modes of operations ie., for fenugreek leaves drying (M1) and for cooking of rice separately (M2) and drying of fenugreek and cooking of rice together(M3). The maximum temperature difference attained between ambient air and MCSFP dryer and cooker was 23°C and 36.5°C respectively. The temperatures attained are well suited for drying of fenugreek leaves and cooking rice.
