Evaporative cooling is a very effective way for exhaust heat recovery that uses both latent heat and sensible heat. This study investigated the performance of a heat recovery system using evaporative cooling. The experimental apparatus comprised a plastic heat exchanger, a water spray nozzle, an air blowing fan, a water circulation pump, and measuring sensors for the temperature, humidity, and flow rate. The effectiveness of the sensible heat recovery without evaporation was measured and compared with that of the total heat recovery with evaporation. The effectiveness of the sensible and total heat recoveries decreased as the air flow rate increased, and a much higher effectiveness was obtained with the counterflow arrangement in both cases. For total heat recovery, the effectiveness increased with the water flow rate, and the parallel flow arrangement was found to be more sensitive to the water flow rate than the counterflow arrangement.

Previous plastic heat exchangers are expensive because the mold must be newly manufactured depending on the air conditioning space. On the other hand, danpla is so thin that the heat exchange performance is excellent. Moreover, danpla can be used easily in ventilation systems in view of fabrication. This study proposes correlations for the cooling performance of an indirect evaporative cooling system. The experimental apparatus consisted of a heat exchanger, spray nozzle, fan, thermostat, pump, and measuring sensors for temperature, humidity, and airflow rate. The results showed that the effectiveness decreased gradually as the airflow rate increased. In addition, there was an optimal condition in terms of effectiveness. The performance prediction correlations were determined using the experimental data from various conditions. The proposed correlations showed performance accuracies within 4 % error.

The purpose of this study is to predict the performance of an indirect evaporative cooling system, and to evaluate its energy saving effect when applied to the exhaust heat recovery system of an air-handling unit. We derive the performance correlation of the indirect evaporative cooling system using a plastic heat exchanger based on experimental data obtained in various conditions. We predict the variations in the performance of the system for various return and outdoor air conditioning systems using the obtained correlation. We also analyze the energy saving of the system realized by the exhaust heat recovery using the typical meteorological data for several cities in Korea. The average utilization rate of the sensible cooling system for the exhaust heat recovery is 44.3% during summer, while that of the evaporative cooling system is 96.7%. The energy saving of the evaporative cooling system is much higher compared to the sensible cooling system, and was about 3.89 times the value obtained in Seoul.

고속절삭을 통해서 생산성과 가공정밀도의 향상을 도모할 수 있기 때문에, 최근 머시닝센터를 중심으로 한 공작기계 주축계의 고속화는 눈부시게 발전하고 있다. 그러나 주축계가 고속화될 수록 증가하는 베어링에서의 발열은 베어링의 수명단축, 주축계의 열변형 증대 등을 초래하고, 궁극적으로 공작기계의 성능을 저하시키게 된다. 따라서 고속으로 회전하는 베어링에서의 발열을 효과적으로 억제할 수 있는 윤활방법에 대한 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 공작기계용 고속주축계의 냉각특성을 규명하기 위한 노력의 하나로 압축공기를 이용한 고속주축 계의 냉각실험을 수행하였다. 고속주축계의 실험모델은 오일에어윤활방법, 앵귤러콘택트 볼베어링, 이중분사노즐, 냉각 자켓등을 사용해서 제작하였으며, 특히 고속주축계의 공기냉각방법에 대한 유용성은 실험결과로 부터 입증하였다.

Acquisition of thermoremanent magnetization follows a Boltzman statistics, as such long reaction time in a slowly cooled environment allows more chance to align individual magnetic particles parallel to the external magnetic field. Hence it has been proposed that the slowly cooled rocks often acquire stronger magnetization than the rapidly cooled ones. Such a proposition has been experimentally validated to be true for the fine-grained magnetite- or titanomagnetite bearing basaltic rocks collected from the mid-ocean ridges. However, the effect of cooling-rate on the remanence intensity appears to be insignificant for nominal grain ranges.

In this paper, film cooling characteristics at supersonic free stream conditions were examined experimentally by applying an IR-thermography. Film cooling experiments were carried out in a free-jet facility at Mach number of 3.0 and with unit Reynolds number of $42.53{\times}10^6$ and $69.35{\times}10^6$ using wedge shaped film cooling model which has a converging film cooling nozzle. Film cooling efficiency was calculated by measuring the surface temperature of PEEK(Polyether Ether Ketone) and the effects of angle of attack and blowing ratios on the film cooling efficiency were examined. The measured wall temperature was significantly reduced by the film cooling flow compared with the results without the film cooling flow. The usefulness of film cooling was also confirmed by the surface heat flux calculated using the surface temperature history of PEEK. As the blowing ratio increases the protected area of PEEK was also expanded along the direction of free stream and film cooling flow.

In this paper, a novel thermoelectric cooling system utilizing condensed water is introduced and its electrical equivalent circuit model is proposed. The introduced system can deals with the condensed water and improves efficiency by spraying the condensed water on heat sink. The electrical equivalent circuit model is derived by combining the circuit model of the classical thermoelectric cooling system with equation of heat exchange. Because the parameters of the model can be defined from not other experimental data but just the data sheet of the thermoelement, the model can be useful to design and develop the controller of the proposed system. We verify that the proposed model is valid and the introduced system is more efficient than the previous thermoelectric cooling system through simulations.

영광 1호기의 일차계통인 원자로 냉각재 평균온도( $T_{avg}$)를 적정값으로 미세조정하여 운전할 때, 2차계통 주요 운전변수인 주증기압력이 상승하고 터빈출력이 상승함을 발견하여 이에 대한 터빈사이클 열성능 변화를 발전소 전체 열평형 계산에 의해 정량적으로 파악하고, 그 원인을 열역학 2법칙에서의 엔트로피개념을 이용한 유용에너지의 최대값인 엑서지이론을 적용하여 분석하고자하였다. 분석 결과 열평형 계산에서는 전체 열량의 대부분인 63.2%가 복수기에서 손실되는 것으로 나타나는 반면, 열역학 제2법칙의 엑서지를 이용한 분석에서는 비가역손실이 주로 터빈(전체 엑서지의 12.7%)에서 일어나고 그 다음이 복수기(5.7%), 급수가열기(2.1%) 그리고 1,2단 재열기 (1.0%)의 순으로 전체 사이클에서 일어나며, 주증기 압력이 상승할 때 터빈 출력이 상승하는 주원인은 주증기의 유용성(엑서지)이 크게 증가하는 것에 비해 터빈사이클에서의 비가역손실은 적게 증가하기 때문으로 나타났다.다.
