This study is to observe the change of temperature and relative humidity for various vegetables in vacuum precooling system. The materials for experiments were the lettuce, chinese cabbage, pak choi and cabbage. The experimental apparatus was constructed of vacuum chamber, vapor/water separator, water tank, pumps ejecting and cooling water circulation, refrigerator unit, cooling coil for water cooling, Hygrometer and Data logger measuring of the temperature change. The experiments were operated in 20torr and recorded every 3 minutes. It was found that the cooling temperature and speed of vegetables are depending on the percentage of its water content. The more water contains, the faster cooling speed and the lower cooling temperature.

입고ㆍ예냉ㆍ출고까지 전 공정을 자동화하고 진공압력을 작물의 품온에 따라 능동적으로 제어할 수 있고 진공챔버내에 콜드트랩을 설치하여 냉각효율을 향상시킨 진공예냉장치를 개발하여 고랭지 배추와 느타리버섯, 상추를 대상으로 예냉성능을 평가하고 예냉이 이들 작물에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 가. 새로 개발된 진공식 예냉장치는 공급컨베이어, 좌우 자동 슬라이딩 문, 이송컨베이어, 진공챔버, 진공펌프 콜드트랩, 냉동기로 구성되어 있다. 팔레트를 공급컨베이어에 올려놓고 작동을 시작하면, 입구문이 열리고 팔레트가 진공챔버내로 이송되면, 진공펌프에 의해 진공챔버내의 압력을 떨어뜨리고, 콜드트랩과 냉동기가 작동되어 예냉이 시작된다. 예냉이 완료되면 출구문이 열리고 이송컨베이어가 역회전하여 밖으로 배출되도록 되어있다. 나. 제작된 예냉장치의 예냉성능을 평가하기 위하여 느타리버섯, 고랭지 배추, 상추를 대상으로 냉각속도, 냉각균일도, 예냉후 저장중 품질변화시험을 실시하였다. 다. 시험결과 냉각소요시간은 느타리버섯의 경우 초기품온 15.2$^{\circ}C$에서 $1.5^{\circ}C$까지 냉각시키는데 24분, 고랭지배추는 13.5$^{\circ}C$에서 3.7$^{\circ}C$까지 냉각시키는데 18분, 상추는 13.4$^{\circ}C$에서 2.$0^{\circ}C$까지 냉각시키는데 24분 소요되었다. 평균냉각속도는 느타리버섯이 34.3$^{\circ}C$/h, 고랭지배추 32.6$^{\circ}C$/h, 상추 28.5$^{\circ}C$/h로 나타났다. 라. 또한 각층간의 냉각균일도를 알아보기 위하여 포장상자내에서 표면 품온과 내부품온변화를 조사한 결과 차이가 거의 없어 균일한 냉각이 가능하였다.생기 양단의 온도차는 높게 나타났고, 재생기 양단의 압력 차는 낮게 나타났다. 재생기 축열재로서 철망-철선을 사용할 경우 철선-철망 ø1.2-150이 전열 표면적은 작으나 재생기 양단의 온도차가 가장 큰 것으로 나타났으며 재생기 양단의 압력 차는 가장 낮게 나타나 공시 철망- 철선 혼합 축열재중 가장 우수함을 알 수 있다. 4. 철망사이에 철선을 삽입한 축열재의 경우, 철망사이에 삽입한 철선의 직경이 큰 것이 철선의 직경이 작은 것보다 재생기의 양단의 온도차가 높게 나타났고 재생기 양단의 압력차는 작게 나타났다. 그러므로 철망사이에 철선을 삽입한 것 중 성능이 우수한 것은 150-ø2. 0-150으로 나타났다. 5. 실험한 재생기 축열재들 중에서 성능이 우수한 것들을 비교한 결과, 복합 철선 ø1.2-1 50이 가장 성능이 좋은 것으로 나타났다.적외선.열풍 복합건조방법이 높게 나타나 이것은 곡물 표면에 원적외선 방사에의한 복사열이 전달되어 열장해를 받았기 때문으로 판단되며, 금후 더 연구하여 적정 열풍온도 및 방사체 크기를 구명해야 할 것이다.으로 보여진다 따라서 옻나무 유래 F는 포유동물의 생식기능에 중요하게 작용하는 것으로 사료된다.된다.정량 분석한 결과이다. 시편의 조성은 33.6 at% U, 66.4 at% O의 결과를 얻었다. 산화물 핵연료의 표면 관찰 및 정량 분석 시험시 시편 표면을 전도성 물질로 증착시키지 않고, Silver Paint 에 시편을 접착하는 방법으로도 만족한 시험 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.째, 회복기 중에 일어나는 입자들의 유입은 자기폭풍의 지속시간을 연장시키는 경향을 보이며 큰 자기폭풍일수록 현저했다. 주상에서 관측된 이러한 특성은 서브스톰 확장기 활동이 자기폭풍의 발달과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 시사한다.se that were all low in two aspects, named "the Nonsignificant group".

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of precooling in the prolongation of freshness of Tsugaru apple. Tsugaru apple was precooled to 1$^{\circ}C$ by the pressure cooler and stored at 1$^{\circ}C$ and 25$^{\circ}C$. Precooling time was required about 5 to 6 hours for Tsugaru apple that filled in the plastic container and faster than that in the carton. The respiration rate was decreased with the reduction of the product temperature by precooling. Tsugaru apple could store about 9 days and 35 days at room temperature and 1$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The purpose of research is to understand the characteristics of refrigeration system having a liquid-vapor phase separator after expansion device and precooling heat exchanger. After expansion process of typical refrigerant of freezer, R134a, the cold vapor of the expanded refrigerant mixture is separated in the liquid-vapor separator and introduced in the precooling heat exchanger to enable the liquid refrigerant to be subcooled. The analysis results showed that the increasing rate of refrigeration capacity and COP can be 8.6% and 1.4%, each. The cause of these performance improvements is due to the difference of the slope of saturated vapor and saturated liquid lines in Mollier diagram of refrigerant.

Vacuum cooling of crisphead lettuce by pilot-scale vacuum cooling apparatus, transportation under the conventional and cold-chain systems and distribution were carried out for its freshness prolongation and application of cold-chain system for fresh fruits and vegetables. Changes in temperatures of crisphead lettuce were also measured during transportation. $Q_{10}$ value for respiration rate of crisphead lettuce was $1.7{\sim}2.4$ and its initial freezing point was $-0.2^{\circ}C$. Cooling the vegetable to $0^{\circ}C$ was possible in less than 30 minutes by vacuum cooling. The shelf-life was extended by more than 90% by the combination of vacuum cooling and low temperature distribution.

The improvement of distribution system and freshness prolongation of crisphead lettuce were carried out through vacuum cooling and distribution under the low temperature. Lettuce that vacuum-cooled and transported by cold storage car was shown better freshness than that distributed by conventional method when they arrived at cunsuming area. And it took $10{\sim}17$ hours until their temperatures arrived at same temperatures when they were stored at $0{\sim}15^{\circ}C$ cold storage room. It was cooled to $1^{\circ}C$ after 27 minutes with vacuum cooling apparatus. The weight loss of lettuce that vacuum cooled and transported by cold storage car was below 5% after 30 days cold storage. And ascorbic acid and chlorophyll retentions were 86% and 52%, respectively. The shelf-life of crisphead lettuce, distributed by vacuum cooling and cold storage car transportation, was 5 days at $15^{\circ}C$ and over 40 days at $0^{\circ}C$, respectively. However, when it was distributed by conventional method, it was only 3 days at $15^{\circ}C$ and 20 days at $0^{\circ}C$, respectively.
