In present paper, mass transfer over a flat plate with film condensation including noncondesable gas is analyzed with the help of similarity methods. Couette flow was assumed in liquid film and boundary-layer approximation was used in the ambient flow. Governing equations were transformed into the ordinary differential equtions by the similarity methods. Runge-Kutta and shooting method were used in order to fine the effect of mass transfer on the velocity and concentrations at the liquid-vapor interface.

This study has been performed to investigate the thermal performance of variable conductance heat pipe (VCHP) with meshed wick. The length of condenser portion in a VCHP is varied by the expansion of inert gas with the operation temperature, and the heat transport capacity is thus varied with the operating temperature. In this study, numerical evaluation of the VCHP is made for the thermal performance of VCHP, based on the diffusion model of inert gas. Water is used as a working fluid and nitrogen as a control inert gas in the copper tube. As a result, the thermal performance of VCHP has been compared with that of constant conductance heat pipe (CCHP) according to the variation of operation temperature. Maximum heat transport capacity of VCHP is mainly presented for operation temperature and the variation of operation temperature is also presented for heat transfer rate of VCHP.

모든 액체는 소량의 기체성분들이 녹아있으며, 액체에 용해되는 기체의 양은 액체에 작용하는 주위압력에 기여하는 각 기체성분의 분압에 비례한다는 헨리의 법칙을 따른다. 따라서 다단증발식 해수담수화설비의 경우, 각 증발단의 운전온도와 압력은 다르며, 이 운전조건에 비례하여 해수에 용해되어 있던 기체들이 증발과정에서 방출되는데 주성분은 불응축기체인 이산화탄소, 질소, 산소 및 아르곤이다. 대류열전달의 입장에서는 불응축기체는 증발증기를 응축시키는 냉각기의 성능을 저하시키는 주요한 원인이기 때문에 증발과정에서 방출되는 불응축기체의 평가는 증발식 해수담수화설비에서 중요한 설계인자 중의 한가지이다. 증발식 해수담수화공정의 경우, 대부분의 증발기는 진공압력으로 유지되기 때문에 진공유지장치의 설계를 위해서는 증발과정에서 해수로부터 방출되는 불응축기체의 방출량을 평가하는 것이 매우 중요다. 본 연구는 불응축기체의 방출량을 정량적으로 계산하기 위해 수행하였으며, 연구결과에 따르면 불응축가스의 방출량은 후단으로 갈수록 감소하며, 담수생산량에 비례함을 알 수 있었다.

This paper is to research the heat transfer characteristic in copper-water variable conductance heat pipes(VCHP) with a non-condensable gas and gas reservoir. The heat transfer characteristics in the VCHP have not yet been studied much researches. VCHP are used in many applications. These applications range from thermal control of components and systems on satellites, to precise temperature calibration duties, conventional electronics temperature control and thermal diodes. The practical use of VCHP is a simple way to control the temperature of satellites. As the quantity of NCG was increased, there was an increase in the saturation vapor temperatures. As the input heat has loaded from 90 W to 110 W, the difference of the evaporator surface is lower than $10^{\circ}C$.

The thermal performance characteristics of gas-loaded heat pipe(GLHP) were investigated by using transient diffuse-front model. Numerical evaluation of the GLHP is made with water as a working fluid and Nitrogen as control gas in the stainless steel tube. The transient vapor temperature and wall temperature were obtained. It is found that the temperature profiles and gas mole fraction distribution have been mainly influence by the diffusion between working fluid and noncondensable control gas in the condenser of GLHP. It is also found that he large power input make the diffusion region smaller.

The presence of non-condensable gases as an additional thermal resistance inside a refrigerating circuit has been found for a general refrigerator, The effect of non-condensable gases was varied by controlling the injection amount of dry air into the refrigerating circuit to increase a thermal resistance. Energy consumption tests for the refrigerator were conducted under the various amounts of non-condensable gases. The tested refrigerating circuit was the household refrigerator. As the molar fraction of non-condensable gases was increased from 0% to 1.46%, the amount of energy consumption was found to increase up to 25%. The increase of the amount of non-condensable gases in refrigerating circuit was found to result in increasing the condensation temperature at the condenser and decreasing the evaporation temperature at the evaporator, which were presumably caused by the low specific heat and increased partial pressure of non-condensable gas.

The operation characteristics of variable conductance heat pipe(VCHP) were numerically investigated by using 1-dimensional diffuse-front model. For different boundary conditions, the amount of non-condensible gas charge and dimension of gas reservoir were obtained by iterative calculation. It is found that the amount of non-condensible gas charge and dimensions of gas reservoir have an effect on the temperature control of condenser for the given operating condition of VCHP. The numerical results show that VCHP has an excellent capability of temperature control when subjected to a change in the heat input.

The thermal performance degradation of heat pipes is caused by the non-condensable gas generation mainly due to the electrochemical corrosion which results from the reaction of working fluids with tube materials. In this study, a simplified method described below was proposed to estimate the life of heat pipes concerning the non-condensable gas generation. The temperature distributions at the outer surface of heat pipes was measured, and based on them the amount of non-condensable gas of hydrogen was estimated. Applying it to the Arrhenius model, the mass generation of hydrogen and the volume occupied by the gas In heat pipes could be estimated for an operating temperature and time. Moreover, this simplified method was applied to the accelerated life test of nine methanol-stainless steel heat pipe samples.

냉동기 냉매 충전에는 수동용 매니폴드게이지가 이용되고 있으며 냉매 충전시에는 3가지 호스를 여러번 교체하게 되는데 이에 따라 냉매손실이 수반되고 냉매가 대기중에 방출된다. 본 연구에서는 자동 냉매 충전장치를 개발하고 장치내의 불응축 가스 및 압축기 오일에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 평가하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 자동 냉매 충전장치는 단 한번의 호스장착과 선택스위치의 조작만으로 전자밸브 및 진공펌프가 자동개폐 및 작동되어 내압시험, 진공시험, 냉매 충전작업이 가능하게 되며 진공펌프를 분리해서 보관하지 않아도 되므로 조작이 매우 간편하다. 진공펌프 흡입 및 토출측 관로에 종래와 같이 호스내의 불응축 가스 제거의 필요성을 배제하여 냉매 손실과 대기오염을 방지하고 냉매 충전시에 종래와 같이 충전호스를 여러번 교체 할 필요가 없으므로 확실한 충전이 가능케 된다. 실험결과 수동 매니폴드게이지를 사용할 때에 비해 실리카겔(SiO$_2$)및 압축기 오일중의 수분량은 1/4 이하로 줄어 오일의 수명과 진공펌프의 수명을 연장할 수 있음을 밝혀내었다.
