As modern houses are constructed with high-density and high-insulation, there is benefit to reduce energy consumption, but there are many side effects raised from polluted air. To solve the problem, a ventilation system is used to improve a indoor air quality. In this study, we tested the parallel flow type heat exchanger used in a heat exchanger of an automotive air conditioner. And we experimentally estimate ventilation performance of HRV(heat recovery ventilator) with heat-pipe according to working fluid filling quantity and ventilation. The working fluid was R22, which was filled from 40 to 60 (%vol.) by 10(%vol.). Ventilation based on the front velocity was measured from 0.3 m/s to 1.5 m/s by 0.3 m/s intervals. Refrigerant filling quantity with the highest efficiency was found to depend on the ventilation. From this study the optimal refrigerant filling quantity in accordance with the ventilation of the detachable heat pipes was found experimentally.

본 논문은 전동형 모터의 Rotor의 자동 성형을 위한 자동화된 주조기 개발에 대한 결과이다. 개발된 자동화된 Rotor 전용 주조기는 수평형에 비해 금형의 크기가 약 1/2정도 이므로 금형 체결력이 반감되고, 기계 구조는 매우 작아진다. 그리고 Al용탕이 사출되는 과정에서 Spool -> Runner -> Gate -> Cavity(제품)에 이르기까지의 Runner를 최소화하여 재용융을 위한 에너지의 비용 절감을 할 수가 있다. 금형 구조가 간단하므로 금형비가 저렴하여 다품종 소량생산에 매우 유리하다. 개발제품은 수직형 구조로 알루미늄 용탕의 윗면의 공기가 금형의 유로 상측에 위치하므로 공기(gas)가 먼저 배출되어 사출(주조)후 Rotor 성형부에 남아 있는 기포가 최소화된다. 그러므로 충진도가 높아진다. Rotor 코아(규소강)가 크더라도 수직형은 금형내에 삽입(Inset)하기가 쉽고 또한, 제품의 착탈 부위와 사출부위가 다르기 때문에 작업성, 안전성이 우수하고 생산성이 매우 높다. 수직형은 충진 밀도가 매우 높고 밀도가 균일하기 때문 Rotor의 회전 소음, 진동에 대한 품질이 매우 우수하다. 따라서 고효율, 고품질의 전동모터 Rotor 제품 생산에 매우 효과적인 장비라 할 수 있다.

In order to reduce the lead-time and cost, recently the technology of rapid protoyping and manufacturing(RPM)has been widely used. Machining process is still considered as one of the effective RPM methods that have been developed and currently available in the industry. It also offers practical advantages such as precision and versatility. Some considerations are still required during the machining process. One of the most important points is fixturing. There should be an effective method of fixturing since the fixturing time depends on the complexity of geometry of the part to be machined. In this paper, the rapid manufacturing process has been developed combining machining with automatic filling. The proposed fixturing technique using automatic filling can be widely applicable to free surface type of product such as a fan. In the filling stage, remeltable material is chosen for the filling process. An automatic set-up device attachable to the table of the machine has also been developed. The device ensures the quality during a series of machining operations. This proposed process has shown to be a useful method to manufacture the required products with the reduced the response-time and cost.

Recently, in order to satisfy the consumer's demand the life cycle and the lead-time of a product is to be shortened. It is thus important to reduce the time and cost in manufacturing trial products. Several techniques have been developed and successfully commercialized in the market RPM(Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing). However, most commercial systems currently use resins or waxes as the raw materials. So, the limited mechanical strength for functional testing is regarded as an obstacle towards broader application of rapid prototyping techniques. To overcome this problems, high-speed machining technology is being investigated worldwide for rapid manufacturing and even for direct rapid tooling application. In this paper, some fundamental experiments and analyses are carried out to obtain the filling time, materials, method, and process parameters for HisRP process. HisRP is a combination process using high-speed machining technology with automatic filling. In filling process, Bi58-Sn alloy is chosen because of the properties of los-melting point, low coefficient of thermal expansion and enviromental friendship. Also the use of filling wire is of advantage in term of simple and flexible mechanism. Then the rapid manufacturing product, for example a skull, is machined for aluminum material by HisRP process with an automatic set-up device of 4-faces machining.

The objective of this study is to investigate low temperature performance characteristics of the thermosyphon with/without wick. Thermosyphons using water as the working fluid are tested with variations of wick, charge amount of the working fluid, outdoor temperature, and heat load for the evaporator section at a low temperature. As a result, the heat transfer of thermosyphon was optimized at the charge amount of 40% and increased with the rise of the outdoor temperatures.

Al Foam 소재는 다공질 금속으로써 저밀도 및 우수한 충격에너지 흡수능으로 최근 새로운 기능성 재료로 부상하여 세계 각국에서 연구개발이 활발하게 진행되고있다. 특히 이러한 Al Foam재를 자동차용 부품의 충격흡수재로사용할 경우 뛰어난 충격흡수능으로 인해 고안전 차량 부품 개발에 획기적인 기술 적용이 기대된다. 그러나, 종래 Al Foam재를 기계부품 등에 삽입할 경우 발포금속을 제조하여 부품 형상에 따라 가공하여 삽입하였으나 이는 공정 중 추가적인 기계 가공 및 비용이 들며 이에 따라생산성이 떨어지는 단점이 있었다. 따라서 본 연구논문에서는 차량용 충격흡수 부품 제작에있어 추가적인 가공 및 공정 수를 줄일 수 있는 Y-프로세스라는 주조공법을 적용하여 Net 형상 Al Foam재를 제작하였다. Y-프로세스는 Al Foam 금속 용탕이 주형에 투하되었을 때 Net 형상의 주형을 용탕 내 삽입하여 금속 용탕의 발포 및 응고시 Net 형상을따라 발포 및 응고가 되도록 하여 Net 형상의 Al Foam이삽입된 부품을 만드는 공법을 말한다. Y-프로세스로제조된 Al Foam재는 주형 내 완전히 충진되지는 못하였으나 주형내 충진된 Al Foam재의 상하부 셀크기가 비교적 균일한 모습을 나타내어 향후 공정제어를 통해 우수한 품질의 Net 형상 Al Foam 제조가 가능함을 알 수있었다.

Durability of automotive polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) strongly depends the startup/shutdown procedure. Formation of hydrogen/air boundary in the anode gas channel, so-called reverse current condition, particularly induces fast degradation of the cathode. Under the reverse current condition, high voltage is present at the cathode facing air in the anode gas channel and is a function of residual oxygen concentration in the gas channels, that increases with storage time and reaches 21% (air) eventually. In this study, effects of residual oxygen concentration in a PEMFC on degradation of the PEMFC.

This study presented the feasibility of R152a refrigerant as an alternative of R134a which is used in the current automobile air conditioning system. The performance of air conditioning system installed in the actual vehicle was tested using the climate wind tunnel. The experiments were conducted at various refrigerant charge quantities and various driving conditions such as city traffic, highway traffic and parking. Same components and lubricant were used for both R134a and R152a system. The effects of air set values of thermal expansion valve on the performance were also investigated. In case of the R152a system, refrigerant charge quantity can be reduced about 20%, better performance and superior compressor durability is expected due to the lower discharge pressure compared to the R134a system.

Recently, as the climate of temperature change has happened worldwide, To solve this problem, Kyoto protocol was taken to regulate global warming on Feb. 2005 and each country is making efforts to prevent global warming. In the automotive industry, R-134a refrigerant is widely used most these days because it has zero ODP(Ozone Depletion Potential). But R-134a GWP(Global Warming Potential) is so high. Therefore, replacement refrigerant desperately is needed as a alternative refrigerant. So, R-l52a is considered as one of the alternative refrigerants due to zero ODP and lower GWP against as required on Europe Committee. In this paper, performance of the air conditioning system between R-134a and R-152a is investigated experimentally. In the bench level, cooling capacity, condensing capacity, COP of automotive air conditioning system are ovaluated by means of air velocity entering the condenser and compressor revolution speed with optimized charge refrigerant quantity. Result of this study, R-152a refrigerant shows the possibility as alternative refrigerant of current R-134a in automotive air conditioning system.
