Classical
bubble nucleation theory, originally proposed by W. Gibbs assumes the
formation of the critical size bubble. This theory fails to predict the
amount of decompression for gaseous bubble formation in water-gas solutions.
It also fails to predict the tensile strength of liquids. In addition, the
classical theory gives no information about the evaporation intensity at the
superheat limit. Using
a new surface energy for the formation of the critical cluster(Molecular
Cluster Model), models for the gas bubble formation in gas-liquid solution[1]
and for the vapor bubble formation within a liquid under tension[2,3] were
proposed. Our cluster model for bubble nucleation can descripe correctly the
evaporation phenomena at the superheat limit[3]. How a critical cluster grows
to become a critical size bubble in gas-liquid solutions was also
theorized[4,5]. The cluster model of bubble nucleation may be applied to CO
bubble formation in iron-melt system characterized with high surface tension
and low vapor pressure[6] and the bubble formation on a cavity free
surface[7,8,9,10]. Recently the superheat limit of hydrocarbons and their
mixtures were measured precisely by using the droplet explosion technique
with visualization. The dynamic behavior of the bubble formed from the fully
evaporated droplet at its superheat limit was also investigated by measuring
the far field pressure signal from the bubble [11]. We reformulated
the cluster model for the bubble formation due to dissolved gas molecules and
activated vapor molecules in a unified way [12]. Thermal as well as quantum
nucleation of bubbles and the cross-over from thermal to quantum regime in
liquid helium under negative pressure near the absolute zero temperature was
investigated by using the molecular cluster model based as the [2] Ho-Young

Journal of Heat Transfer, Vol. 136, pp. 081501-1~081501-9, 2014. Understanding
of the behavior of bubble inside liquid is not a simple problem. The full
hydrodynamic problem for the bubble motion involves solving 3-D Navier-Stokes
equations inside and outside the bubble, coupled with equations of heat and
mass transfers at the bubble wall. We have solved this problem without
massive computational work! A breakthrough came by finding the analytical
solution of the mass and momentum equations in spherical symmetry [23]. The
conservation equations in spherical symmetry are given as where r
is the distance from center, where It has been found that there always exists a
mismatch between the natural frequency of an oscillator (bubble) and the
characteristic frequency of the applied ultrasound, so that a proper choice
of time scale of the driving force is crucial for the calculation of the
bubble behavier under ultrasound [30,31]. It has also been found
experimentally that the upscaling of SBSL cannot be achieved at low
frequencies of ultrasound due to such mismatch [32]. An artificial resonance
may occur in the course of numerical evaluation of the equation for bubble
motion under ultrasound if the bubble motion is forced to be in phase with
the characteristic frequency of the driving force. Two time normalization
method [30] was introduced to avoid the artificial resonance. Of course the
two time normalization method introduced by us is a physical approximation
which represents lagging behavior of bubble motion under ultrasound. Such
relaxational motion of bubble, which is typical for nonlinear oscillators [33],
turns out to be due to the combined effect of surface tension and viscosity
of liquid. This method enables to explain why a sonoluminescing air bubble
can be maintained at partial pressure of about 0.03~0.14 atm [34] and why the
sonoluminescing air bubble can be stable at the driving pressure of 1.45 atm
[35]. Recently, our theory predicts that extremely
high temperature above million degree might be achieved from a submicron
sonoluminescing gas bubble driven at 1 MHz [36]. This happens because the
submicron bubble driven at MHz frequency can be stable even at higher driving
pressure above 10 atm [36]. Even our theoretical model predicts correctly the
nonlinear behavior of bubble in sulfuric acid solutions, which shows two
states of bubble motion [37] and the characteristics of a sonoluminescing gas
bubble such as the peak pressure and temperature and the flash width [38] in those
solutions. Our theory will be used as a tool for optimum design of sonochemical reactors. [39] Exact solution of the cosmological fluid
equations for Newtonian stars, which yields many fruitful results such as
stellar stability, spherical oscillation and gravitational collapse [40] was
obtained by using the linear velocity profile given in Eq. 4. The velocity
profile obtained shows homologous character of the gases inside the sphere:
every mass point during the collapse or expansion may be traced back to a
single point. Furthermore, the exact solution yields to calculate central
densities, pressures and temperatures of the Newtonian stars such as the Sun,
Jupiter and the Saturn [41]. Our calculation results may be applicable to the
formation of protostars. Using these exact solution of the cosmological fluid equations, fire-ball expansion and subsequent shock wave propagation by detonation of explosives were studied recently [42]. Experimental works on the single bubble
sonoluminescence(SBSL) have also been done at PCL. It has been found that a
selective bifurcation instead of period doubling occurs when the driving
pressure is increased and the bubble gains extreme stability (SL state) after
the cascade occurrence of such bifurcation [43]. Accurate measurement of the
radius of a sonoluminescing gas bubble by light scattering method and direct
imaging technique was tried [44] by using the remarkable stability of
sonoluminescing gas bubble having the same shape variation sequence in every
oscillation cycle and having only 50 ps jitter in the time flashes. Such SBSL
characteristics enable to measure the bubble radius by the light scattering
method and direct imaging tenique sequentially. The spectrum from SBSL was
measured and the observed results were compared with the results by the
theory proposed [24,26]. Calculated and experimental results yield common
spectral behavior in the visible region : the spectral radiance shows
power-law dependence on wavelength with an exponent of -2.5 [45]. Recently we have succeded in measuring the pulse width from the sonoluminescing gas bubble in sulfuric acid solutions [46] and glycerin-water mixtures [47], where the SL bubble is extremly unstable. The measured values of the pulse widht were found to be in the range of 150 ps to several ns [46,47]. No appreciable difference in the measured pulse width [48] and the bubble behavior [49] for the sonoluminescing air bubble in various solutions was found. The measured results for the pulse width of sonoluminescence in various solutions whose density varied from 1000 kg/m3 to 1800 kg/m3 suggest that light is emitted from the core region where the temperature is almost uniform [47]. Application of sonoluminescence phenomena such
as possibility of bubble fusion and the chemical reaction enhanced by
multibubble sonoluminescence are underway. For example, degradation of
Methylene blue, a typical textile dyestuffs in aqueous solution was examined
for the first time at the multibubble sonoluminescence (MBSL) condition [50].
At the optimum condition of MBSL, the solution was degradated completely.
Recently, uniform coating on CdS particles on TiO2 nanoparticles[51]
was succeeded through a one pot reaction under MBSL condition. Zinc oxide(ZnO) and ZnO-coated tintanium nanoparticles were synthesized in various alcohol solution[52] at the MBSL condition. Furthermore, Li4Ti5O12(LTO), a powerful anode material for all kids of rechargeable lithium batteries was systhesized by heating the LiOH coated TiO2 nanoparticles prepared at the MBSL condition[53]. We also synthesized the nanoparticles with core/shell structure such as ZnS coating on to TiO2 nanoparticles [54] and PbS coating on TiO2 nanoparticles [55] at the MBSL condition. Specially we prepared the supported Ni catalysts with core/shell structure at the MBSL condition and found that 10% Ni Ni/Al2O3 catalysts of core/shell structure produced good conversion efficient of CH4, which is about 96% at reaction temperature of 800¡É and showed good thermal stability [56]. With the supported Ni catalysts Ni/Al2O3 and Ni/MgO-Al2O3 synthesized at the MBSL conditions, the methane conversion of 97% in steam reforming reation at 750 ¡É [57] and 95% in dry (CO2) reforming reaction at 800¡É [58] were achieved for the first 150h. A test for the mixed reforming of methane with these catalysts was also done [59]. Recently, the pulse width from a bubble cloud under MBSL conditions was measured for the first time [60]. The observed pulse width which appears to be comparable to that of the single bubble sonolunimescence indicates that the cloud of bubbles collapse simultaneously to emitting a light that is synchronized with th applied ultrasound.
Based on this observation, MBSL is studied hydro-dynamically to obtain
the velocity profile and radiation pressure field by solving the continuity and
momentum equations for a spherical cluster containing numerous microbubbles[61]. Molecular dynamics simulation for the sonoluminescing gas bubble [62] with
ten million molecules is in progress with supercomputer facility at KISTI
(Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information), Daejon, Korea. An appropriate boundary condition at the bubble wall was found to be one of important factor to simulate the sonoluminescing bubble by molecular dynamics [63]. [23]

general exergy balance equation [64] and the corresponding
cost-balance equation [65] that are applicable to
any component of thermal systems have been formulated. The exergy of material stream involved in the component of
any thermal system was decomposed into thermal, mechanical and chemical exergy flows and an entropy-production flow. A unit exergy cost is assigned to each disaggregated exergy in the stream at any state. This methodology
permits us to obtain a set of equations for the unit costs of various exergies by applying the cost-balance equation to each
component of the system and to each junction. The monetary evaluations of
various exergy costs as well as the production cost
of thermal system are obtained by solving the set of equations. The lost
costs of each component of the system can also be obtained by this method.
Application to a 1000 kW gas turbine cogeneration system show that the
unit exergy costs increase as the production
process continues and that the production cost of electricity increase nearly
proportional with the input cost [66]. The
application of the proposed exergy and thermoeconomic analyses to 500-MW combined cycle plant [67]
has revealed that the model provides the productive structure of the system
considered, consequently could visualize the cost formation process and the
productive interaction between components clearly. In the analyses, it has
been found that the exergy and cost balance
equations for the plant boundary play a crucial role for the determination of
the production costs. A comparative study of thermoeconomic
methodologies between the SPECO(Specific Cost)
methodology proposed by Professor G. Tsatsaronis
and our MOPSA(Modified Productive Structure Analysis)
for the predefined CGAM cogeneration system has been done [66]. It has also
been found that the unit cost of products is dependent on the chosen level of
aggregation of the system only when one consider the entropy production
rate as one of parameters to determine the unit cost of products, which
suggest that the cost structure of energy system is interrelated by the irreversibilities occurred at each component [68,69].
Recently exergetic and thermoeconomic
analysis were also performed for a 200-kW phosphoric acid fuel cell plant by
using MOPSA and was found that the system might be viable economically when
the initial investment cost per power is reduced to the level of the gas
turbine co-generation plant of 1500 $/kW [70]. Recently optimal configuration
and optimal operation condition of the cogeneration plant [69] and the
economic evaluation of the plant [72] were determined by considering annual
energy demand pattern of commercial building such as hotels and hospitals and
apartments[73]. Recently thermoeconomic analysis was performed for the high-temperature gas-cooled reactors coupled with a steam methane reforming plant in order to estimate the hydorgen production cost [74]. Recently, optimal operation of
PEMFC-based CHP system [75], a support strategy for the promotion of
photovoltaic uses in Korea [76] and thermoeconomic analysis of ground-source
heat pump system [77] were published with collaboration of researchers in Blue
Economy Strategy Institute Co. Ltd. in Seoul Korea. Recently, a cost-effective method for integration of existing grids with
new and renewable energy sources in public buildings in Korea was suggested
[78]. A key factor of the method is based on the fact that the unit costs of
the products from the energy systems depends on the capacity factor or the
utilization factor which is crucially dependent on the interaction between the
energy demand pattern for the building and the production time of the specific
energy from the new and renewable energy sources [64] Si-Doek Oh, Hyo-Sun Pang, Si-Moon

boiling heat transfer for various refrigerants R11, R113 and FC-72 in
addition to the study on the convective boiling of refrigerant mixture of R11
and R113 [79] was investigated in a single-tube shell/ tube heat exchanger by
using temperature control method of wall superheat [80]. Also the behavior of
bubble under nonuniform electric field produced by
wire electrode was studied by numerical calculation. Proper electrode
configuration, appropriate electric field strength and wall superheat turn
out to be all important factors to enhance the nucleate boiling heat transfer
as well as to prevent reducing the electric field strength, which should be
considered for electrohydrodynamic (EHD) augmented
evaporator design and its operation [80], It has also been found that the
electrical charge relaxation time of field is an important parameter for the
enhancement of nucleate boiling heat transfer [81]. This can be realized by azeotropic mixture of R113+wt4% ethanol one having very
short charge relaxation time of 0.005ses [82]. A "convective immersion
cooling module" to enhance the the critical
heat flux by increasing the nucleate boiling area in the heat spreader was
developed [83]. An experimental study of thermosyphonic
boiling heat transfer in vertical tube and channel made by two parallel retangular plate with open
periphery was done to understand the effect of the gap size and pumping
action [84]. Also a new thermosyphon cooling module(TSCM)
was designed and fabricated to cool the mult-chip
module(MCM), which can be utilized in the telecommunication system [85]. The
cooling module patented in Korea(# 0211058) and in United States(# 5,859,763, 1999)
consists of a cold plate and an integrated condenser. With an allowable
temperature rise of 56 ¡É on the surface of the heater, the cooling
module TSCM can handle a heat flux of about 2.7 W/cm2 using R11 as
working fluid. More refined cooling module which has smooth transition from
transient to steady state without heat transfer crises at any heat flux level
was tested [86]. [79] Jae Ho

To curb such fossil fuels demand and reduce CO2 emissions correspondingly, more efficient use of the fossil fuels are strongly required. In this article thermodynamic and economic evaluation methods and optimal planning of gas turbine cogeneration systems which can return fossil fuel energy savings up to 30% are treated. A general exergy balance equation that is applicable to any component of thermal system is presented. A cost-balance equation formulated by assigning a unit exergy cost to each disaggregated exergy stream in the exergy balance equation is also presented. Applications of the exergy and cost-balance equations to a gas turbine cogeneration are shown. A method to determine the optimal configuration and optimal operation mode of cogneration system is also presented based on the energy demand data for commercial buildings such as a hotel, a hospital and an office building. 5.
Ho-Yong Kwak, ¡°Nonlinear bubble behavior due to heat transfer¡± in Heat Transfer—Theoretical
Analysis, Experimental Investigations and Industrial Systems, INTECH, 2011. Abstract Previous
studies of the forced oscillation of a spherical bubble in solution have been
investigated by using the Rayleigh equation to obtain the time dependent bubble
radius and a polytropic relation to obtain the gas pressure inside the bubble
depending bubble volume. In fact, the polytropic approximation with proper
index values has been widely used for the gas undergoing quasi-equilibrium
process in which there is heat transfer. However, the polytropic pressure-volume
relationship fails to account the thermal damping due to heat transfer through the
bubble wall because PbdV is a perfect
differential and consequently its integral over a cycle vanishes where Pb is the gas pressure inside the bubble and V is the bubble volume. Furthermore, the polytropic approximation
assumes the uniform temperature for the gas intrinsically, which is valid only
for a particular case and it is hard to tell whether the gas inside the bubble
oscillating under ultrasound behaves isothermally or adiabatically. In this study, we have formulated a general
bubble dynamics model, which is as follows. The density, velocity and pressure
distributions for the gas inside a spherical bubble were obtained by solving
the continuity and momentum equations analytically. With the set of analytical
solutions for the conservation equations, the temperature distribution for the
gas inside the bubble was also obtained by solving the energy equation for the
gas. The heat transfer through the bubble wall was considered to obtain the
instantaneous thermal boundary layer thickness from the mass and energy
conservations for the liquid layer adjacent to the bubble wall by the integral
method. The mass and momentum equations for the liquid outside the bubble wall
provided the well known equation of motion for the bubble wall, the
Rayleigh-Plesset equation in incompressible medium or the Keller-Miksis
equation in compressible medium. The bubble dynamics model was applied to an
evolving bubble formed form the fully evaporated droplet at the superheat limit
and phenomena of sonoluminescence which is light emission associated with the catastrophic
collapse of a micro-bubble oscillation under ultrasound. With uniform density, temperature and
pressure approximations which are valid for the characteristic time scale of ms,
the calculated values of the far field pressure signal from the evolving the
bubble formed form the fully evaporated droplet at its superheat limit are in
good agreement with the experimental results. With uniform pressure
approximation which is valid for the characteristic time scale of ¥ìs, the calculated values of the minimum velocity of the bubble
wall, the peak temperature and pressure are excellent agreement with the
observed ones for the sonoluminescing xenon bubble in sulfuric acid solutions.
Furthermore, the calculated bubble radius-time curve displays alternating
pattern of bubble motion which is apparently due to the heat transfer for the
sonoluminescing xenon bubble, as observed in experiment. The bubble dynamics
model presented in this study has also revealed that the sonoluminescence for
an air bubble in water solution occurs due to the increase and subsequent
decrease in the bubble wall acceleration which induces pressure non-uniformity
for the gas inside the bubble during ns range near the collapse point. The calculated
sonoluminescence pulse width from the instantaneous gas temperature for air
bubble is in good agreement with the observed value of 150 ps. Due to enormous
heat transfer the gas temperature inside the sonoluminescing air bubble at the
collapse point is about 20000~40000 K instead of 107 K which estimated
to be in the adiabatic case. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation results for the
sonoluminescing xenon bubble were compared to the theoretical predictions and
observed results. ¡¡ [1] Ho-Young Kwak, and Sung-Kap Cho, "Bubble formation, growth, and collapse mechanism from a droplet at the superheat limit", Proceedings of the Fourth Miami International Symposium on Multiphase Transport and Particulate Phenomena,pp.359-375,1986(Miami Beach,Florida, USA).

The constant a is related to the gas mass inside the bubble. With
uniform density and pressure approximation, the violent oscillation of the bubble
formed from the evaporated droplet at the superheat limit could be accounted
[25]. The bubble behavior of a nonsonoluminescencing gas bubble can be
described correctly by the solutions with uniform pressure approximation [23].
However, the gas pressure inside bubble is no longer uniform if the bubble
wall acceleration exceeds 1012 m/s2. The solutions for
3-D Navier-Stokes equations in spherical symmetry show that sonoluminescence
occurs due to the rapid increase and subsequent decrease in the bubble wall
acceleration which induces a thermal spike [24,26]. The temperature profile
obtained by the solutions suggests that the light pulse duration is less than
300 ps [26]. Also the solutions have revealed that the Guderley's similarity
solution is not valid just prior to the collapse [26]. In addition correct
spectral behavior of sonoluminescence was obtained by assuming that the
source for the sonoluminescence is bremsstrahlung in partially ionized gases
[24,26]. The shock pulse emanating form a sonoluminescing gas bubble were
calculated [27], measured [28] and the propagation of a pressure wave inside
bubble near the bubble collapse [28,29] have also been calculated by using the
solutions.

and nano particles flows in microchannels was
tested to study the macroscopic flow behavior associated with the change in
the state of the microchannels [88]. Recently micro/nano particles and biological cells mixed in water solution were tried to be separated using the dielectrophoresis in an evaporating droplet [89]. For cooling of microelectronic system,
experiments of pool boiling on chemically etched silicon surfaces [90],
capillary pumped loop with cone shaped capillary structure in evaporator [91]
and forced convective heat transfer of nanofluids in microchannels [92] were
performed.

Abstract
In this article, gas bubble nucleation in gas-supersaturated solutions, vapor
bubble nucleation in liquid and the evaporation process of a liquid droplet
at its superheat limit were discussed from the viewpoint of molecular
clustering (molecular cluster model for homogeneous bubble nucleation) in metastable liquid. A puzzling phenomenon of carbon
monoxide gas bubble formation in Fe-C-O melts and gas bubble nucleation in
polymer solutions were also discussed by using the molecular cluster model
based on the interaction between solute gas and solvent molecules. For the
vapor bubble formation, the energy barrier against bubble nucleation was
estimated from the molecular interaction due to the
