Refrigerant mischarging is one of the most frequently occurring failure modes in air conditioners, and both undercharging and overcharging degrade cooling performance. Therefore, it is important to accurately determine the amount of charged refrigerant. In this study, a support vector machine (SVM) model was developed to multi-classify the refrigerant mischarge through steady-state identification via fuzzy clustering techniques. For steady-state identification, a fuzzy clustering algorithm was applied to the air conditioner operation data using the difference between moving averages. The identification results using the proposed method were compared with those using existing steady-state determination techniques studied through the inversed Fisher's discriminant ratio (IFDR). Subsequently, the main features were selected using minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR) considering the correlation among candidate features, and an SVM multi-classification model was devised using the derived features. The proposed method achieves satisfactory accuracy and robustness from test data collected in the new domain.

In this study, combustion behaviour were to analyze by comparing experimental data against predicted values. In developing pellet boiler performance, various factors such as combustion chamber shape, input air velocity, the amount of fuel, temperature, and fuel characteristics need to be analyzed. Analytical model using a numerical method is useful to overcome time and cost consuming by practical experiment. By controlling feeding rate of fuel, flue gas composition and temperature distribution obtained form experiment were compared with predicted values using FLUENT(ANSYS, Inc., Southpointe). Measurement were in good agreement with model predictions : with 0.60 % for $CO_2$ 0.73% for $O_2$ when compared with independent data sets.

In this paper, performance analysis of mobile phone with internal antenna for PCS band was carried out. The radiation patterns for antenna and mobile phone with internal antenna were simulated by using 3D simulation program, HFSS and SEMCAD. Radiation pattern variation was observed according to installation of LED circuit and ground pattern and by using simulation radiation pattern was improved. And radiation patterns of mobile phones with internal and external antennas were measured by using for field measurement system and chamber. Measured radiation pattern for mobile phone with internal antenna shows good agreement with simulation result. And the radio sensitivities of mobile phones with internal and external antennas were measured by using Agilent E5515C and chamber and compared. The measured radio sensitivity of mobile phone with internal antenna shows proper performances comparable to other model with external antenna. Measured result shows that the difference on averaged co-polar radio sensitivity is 0.12 ㏈.

Although a fire curtain plays an important role in preventing smoke from spreading to the auditorium in a theater fire, there has been insufficient research on fire curtains. In this study, to check the accuracy of numerical simulation, for previous experiments using a reduced scale model, a numerical simulation was carried out, and the results were compared with previous experimental data. The fire curtain effect was then predicted numerically. A Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) was used, and the natural exhaust vent sizes were set to ~10%, ~5%, and ~1% of the stage floor area. The smoke movement was visualized, and the mass flow rates and temperatures were measured and analyzed. In addition, the law of similarity was used to examine the influence of a fire curtain in a real scale theater fire. Without the fire curtain, the present numerical simulation results were in agreement with the previous experimental data within reasonable accuracy. Meanwhile, the fire curtain affects the mass flow rates through the natural exhaust vent and proscenium opening, as well as the start time of soot outflow to the auditorium. Overall, the present results can be used to develop a fire curtain system.

The existing computer equipment management system is designed to computerize and manage equipment information that was managed only by documents in the computer room. However, the existing system focuses on computerizing the equipment arranged in the document, so there is a limit to the equipment that can be registered and it is difficult to find the necessary equipment. In addition, it caused inconvenience to confirm whether the registered equipment is currently used. In this paper, we redesign and implement the computer equipment management system to solve the problem. For this purpose, the existing computer equipment management system was thoroughly analyzed throughout, and the system is designed and implemented to improve the system by reflecting the opinions of public officials and management companies using the system. In the performance evaluation, the efficiency of the improved system is proved by comparing the number of equipment registrations and equipment search accuracy of the existing system.

In present 3D CFD study, the method for determining leakage and rotordynamic coefficients of a plain-gas seal is suggested by using the relative coordinate system for steady-state simulation. In order to find the effect of pre-swirl speed at seal inlet, pre-swirl velocity is included as a parameter. Present analysis is verified by comparison with results acquired from Bulk-flow analysis code and published experimental results. The results of 3D CFD rotordynamic coefficients of direct stiffness(K) and cross-coupled stiffness(k) show improvements in prediction. As pre-swirl speed at seal inlet increases, k also increases to destabilize system. However, pre-swirl speed at seal inlet does not show sensitivity to the leakage and rotordynamic coefficients of K and damping(C).

In this paper, we proposed a continuously variable true time-delay for transmit linear phased-array antenna sing chirped fiber gratings(CFGs) and a tunable laser source. Average group delay-slope of the CFG was treasured to be 177 ps/nm at L-, S-, and X-band. Simulation results show that the maximum gain of the transmit linear phased-array antenna with the beam steering angle of 180$^{\circ}$ is 11.6 dB at 10 GHz.

In order to improve leakage characteristic, angled-circumferential-groove pump seal is suggested. CFD analysis using FLUENT has been performed to predict leakage and determine an optimum slanted-groove angle $\alpha$ which yields the best leakage reduction. The optimum value of $\alpha$ ranges from $45^{\circ}$ to $60^{\circ}$ and depends on the pressure difference of seal and number of grooves for the same groove geometry. The maximum leakage reduction ratio increases as increasing the pressure difference of angled-circumferential-groove pump seal with the optimum value of $\alpha$.

도시폐기물의 효율적인 소각 처리를 위해서 폐기물 처리량 50 ton/day의 화격자 소각로를 대상으로 화학반응을 고려하여 연소실 내부의 열유동 현상을 전산모사하였다. 수치해석 프로그램으로 상용코드인 PHOENICS를 사용하여 3차원 모사를 하여 실험으로 파악할 수 없는 연소실 내부의 유동 및 폐기물과 산화제와의 반응을 계산하였다. 건조부, 주연소부, 후연소부에 1차연소용공기, 연료의 분포 및 폐기물의 발열량이 노내 열유동 현상에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 1차연소용 공기의 분포에 따라 노내 유동장의 형태에 변화가 있었으며, 벽면에서의 복사열전달을 고려한 경우 2차연소실과 출구근처에서 온도분포가 파일롯트 플랜트 실험결과와 잘 일치하는 r서으로 나타났다.
