This paper describes an analysis on exergy efficiency of R744 OTEC power system to optimize the design for the operating parameters of this system. The operating parameters considered in this study include subcooling and superheating degree, evaporation and condensation temperature, and turbine and pump efficiency, respectively. The main results are summarized as follows : As the evaporation temperature, superheating degree, and turbine and pump efficiency of R744 OTEC power system increases, the exergy efficiency of this system increases, respectively. But condensation temperature and subcooling degree of R744 OTEC power system increases, the exergy efficiency of this system decreases, respectively. The effect of evaporation temperature and pump efficiency on R744 OTEC power system is the largest and the lowest among operation parameters, respectively. Therefore, the refrigerant temperature in the evaporator must be closely to the surface seawater temperature to enhance the exergy efficiency of R744 OTEC power system.

In this paper, cycle performance analysis of cascade refrigeration system using $NH_3-CO_2$(R717-R744) is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of the system. The operating parameters considered in this study include subcooling and superheating degree and condensing and evaporating temperature in the ammonia(R717) high temperature cycle and the carbon dioxide low temperature cycle. The COP of cascade refrigeration system increases with the increasing superheating degree, but decreases with the increasing subcooling degree. The COP of cascade refrigeration system increases with the increasing condensing temperature, but decreases with the increasing evaporating temperature. Therefore, superheating and subcoolng degree, evaporating and condensing temperature of cascade refrigeration system using $NH_3-CO_2$ have an effect on the COP of this system. A multilinear regression analysis was employed in terms of subcooling, superheating, evaporating, condensing, and cascade heat exchanger temperature difference in order to develop mathematical expressions for maximum COP and an optimum evaporating temperature.

In this paper, flow characteristics of R600a in an adiabatic capillary tube were investigated employing the homogeneous flow model. The model is based on fundamental equations of mass, energy and momentum which are solved simultaneously. Two friction factors(Churchill) and viscosity(McAdams) are comparatively used to investigate the flow characteristics. Thermodynamic and transport properties of R600a are calculated employing EES property code. Flow characteristics analysis of R600a in an adiabatic capillary tube is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters. The operating parameters considered in this study include condensation temperature, evaporation temperature, subcooling degree and inner diameter tube of the adiabatic capillary tube. The main results were summarized as follows: condensation and evaporation temperature, inlet subcooling degree and inner diameter tube of an adiabatic capillary tube using R600a have an effect on length of an adiabatic capillary tube. The length of an adiabatic capillary tube using R600a is expressed to the correlation shown in Eq. (15).

In this paper, cycle performance analysis of cascade refrigeration system using alternative FREON refrigerants and natural refrigerants are presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of the system. The operating parameters considered in this study include subcooled and superheated degree, and condensing and evaporating temperature, temperature difference of cascade heat exchanger in cascade refrigeration system. The COP of cascade refrigeration system increases with the increasing subcooled degree, but there is no significant changes with the increasing superheated degree. The COP of cascade refrigeration system depends on evaporating and condensing temperatures of cascade heat exchanger. Therefore, subcooled degree, evaporating and condensing temperature of cascade heat exchanger using alternative FREON refrigerants and natural refrigerants have an effect on the COP of this system. In this paper, COP of cascade refrigeration system using (R23 / R290), (R23 / R600), (R23 / R600a), (R23 / R717), (R744 / R404A) are higher 20 ~ 36 % than (R23 / R22), using R23 for low temperature system and R22 for high temperature system.

In this work, glycolide, L-lactide and ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone monomers were polymerized into the triblock copolymers by two step polymerization method and their non-isothermal crystallization behaviors were studied by combination of modified Avrami and Ozawa formula for further analysis of their behaviors. The result showed that PGCLA21 gave the highest value for supercooling analysis and super cooling degree increased with L-lactide content. Crystallization velocity constant, however, showed no significant change. The result of cooling function in specific relative crystallization degree showed that the increase of L-lactide content made an effect on the more enhancement of crystallization velocity of the PGCLA than PGCL. The result of big logF(T) value with the L-lactide content above critical point for PGCLA41 and PGCLA21 showed that bigger cooling velocity needed to gain same crystal size compared with PGCL. This means that it gives negative effect in the increase of crystallization velocity.

In this paper, analysis on the performance characteristics of R744-R404A cascade refrigeration system is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of the system. The operating parameters considered in this study include subcooling and superheating degree, compressor efficiency, and condensing and evaporating temperature in R404A high- and R744 low-temperature cycle, respectively. The main results were summarized as follows : It was observed that the highest COP of the system is achieved by higher superheating degree in R744 cycle than that in R404A cycle. The COP of the system increased by giving the subcooling degree in both cycles. The COP of the cascade system is the highest value when the system is operated at an optimum evaporation temperature.

In this paper, alternative natural refrigerant R290(Propane), R600(Butane), R717(Ammonia), R1270(Propylene) for freon refrigerant R22 were used working fluids for 2-stage compression and 1-stage expansion refrigeration system. The operating parameters considered in this study included evaporation temperature, condensation temperature, subcooling degree, superheating degree, mass flow rate ratio of inter-cooler. The main results were summarized as follows : The COP of 2-stage compression and 1-stage expansion refrigeration system increases with the increasing subcooling degree and mass flow rate ration of inter-cooler, but decreases with the increasing evaporating temperature, condensing temperature and superheating degree. Therefore, subcooling degree, mass flow rate ratio of inter-cooler of 2-stage compression and 1-stage expansion refrigeration system using natural refrigerants have an effect on COP of this system. The COP of natural refrigerants was higher than the COP of freon R22 in this study, so points to be considered are the security, the attached facilities for natural refrigerants than COP.

Test of liquid oxygen sub-cooling by helium injection, which is one of the method of temperature conditioning of cryogenic propellant in liquid propulsion rocket, is performed. The sub-cooling effect at different He injection flow rate with the same initial liquid oxygen mass is compared. Test results showed liquid oxygen temperature decrease of $5\sim6^{\circ}C$ under test condition. And the required time for cooling is inversely proportional to He injection flow rate.

A refrigerant-subcooling refrigeration system consisted of a typical single vapor-compression refrigeration cycle, a subcooler, and an ice storage tank. The degree of subcooling at the exit of the condenser can be increased by the heat exchange between the subcooler and the ice storage tank. The cold heat in the ice storage tank was stored by using the refrigeration cycle during night time and then used to absorb the heat from the subcooler during daytime. The performance of the refrigerant-subcooling refrigeration system was measured by varying the degree of subcooling. In addition, the performance characteristics of the present system were compared with those of a conventional refrigeration system. The mass flow rate of the present system was higher than that of the conventional system due to the increase in the degree of subcooling. Generally, the refrigerant-subcooling system showed superior performance to the conventional refrigeration system.

액체 상태의 물질이 매우 급속하게 냉각되면 일반적으로 과냉각액체(supercooled liquid) 상태에 도달한다. 과냉각액체는 더 낮은 온도에서 유리상(glass phase)으로 상전이를 일으킨다고 알려져 있는데, 이때 나타나는 동역학적 불균일성(dynamic heterogeneity)은 상전이를 기술하는데 중요한 역할을 한다. 그러나 일반적인 액체의 상전이를 연구할 때 주로 사용되던 상관함수(correlation function)으로는 이러한 불균일성을 정량적으로 표현하기 어렵기 때문에 동역학적 민감도(dynamic susceptibility)나 multi-time correlation function 등 동역학적 성질(dynamic property)로부터 특징적인 시간 개념 및 거리 개념을 도출하려는 연구가 많이 진행되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 일반적으로 특징적인 거리 개념을 도출해 내는데 사용되는 4점 밀도 상관함수(four-point density correlation function)인 dynamic susceptibility(${\chi}^4$)가 입자 밀도의 요동(fluctuation)의 상관관계(correlation)가 지속되는 특징적인 시간 개념에 대한 정보 또한 포함하고 있다는 점에 주목하였다. 이에 따라 ${\chi}^4$의 시간에 대한 적분인 ${\tau}_4$를 새롭게 도입하였으며 그 결과로 ${\tau}_4$는 three-time density correlation function으로부터 도출한 ${\tau}_{Dh}$와 같은 축척(scaling)을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 과냉각액체에 대한 장난감 모형(toy model)의 일종인 "Lennard-Jones potential 하에서 운동하는 서로 다른 두 종류의 입자들"을 연구에 사용하였다.
