In this study, the cycle performance of an air conditioner with multi-indoor units is analyzed and simulated. The cycle performance could be predicted through the integration of mathematical formulation for these devices. The condenser pressure is obtained by an iteration process to match the mass flow rates of the compressor and the expansion valve and the evaporator pressure is determined by an iteration process, in which the suction super heat is tracing the targeted super heat. The required software was developed by system programming. the software algorithm is extended to predict the cycle performance of an air conditioner system with multi-indoor units, and then the numerical results are compared with experimental results. This mathematical model is validated from the result of experiments conducted on 8.3kW air conditioner. The errors in capacity, electronic power, and COP are found to be within 10% in general.

For the treatment of reactive phenolic resin waste, a simulation model of pervaporative dehydration process has been developed through hollow fiber membrane module. Some of basic parameters were determined directly from dehydration of the waste liquid through a flat sheet membrane to get realistic values. The simulation model was verified by comparing the simulated values with experimental data obtained from hollow fiber membrane module. Hollow fiber membranes with active layer coated on inside fiber were used, and feed flew through inside hollow fiber. Feed flow rate affected membrane performances and reaction by providing a corresponding temperature distribution of feed along with fiber length. Feed temperature is also a crucial factor to determine dehydration and reaction behavior by two competing ways; increasing temperature increases permeation rate as well as water formation rate. Once the permeate pressure is well below the saturated vapor pressure of feed, permeate pressure had a slightly negative effect on permeation performance by slightly reducing driving force. As the pressure approached the vapor pressure of feed, dehydration performances declined considerably due to the activity ratio of feed and permeate.

오일 증기의 제트를 분사하여 잔류가스를 배기하는 오일확산펌프는, 구조가 간단하여 고장이 적고 저렴하며 소음 및 전기노이즈가 적게 발생하는 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 오일의 증기압에 의해 그 도달압력이 10-9 Torr 이상으로 제한되어, 액체질소로 냉각되는 배플형태의 저온 트랩을 사용하지 않는 한 10-10 Torr영역의 초고진공 배기용으로는 사용하지 못하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 유회전펌프로 뒷받침 배기(foreline pumping)하는 700l/s의 배기속도를 가진 오일확산펌프에 300 liter/sec의 컨덕턴스를 가진 액체질소 트랩을 부착하여 메탈 실링을 사용하는 초고진공 챔버를 배기하였다. 액체질소트랩에 액체질소를 투입하면 $1{\times}10-8Pa$이하의 초고진공이 얻어졌으나, 액체질소가 증발하여 트랩의 온도가 상온으로 상승하면 압력도 $1{\times}10-7Pa$ 이상으로 상승하였다. 50 liter/sec의 배기속도를 가진 터보분자펌프로 오일확산펌프를 뒷받침 배기하면 액체질소를 투입하지 않은 상태에서 $5{\times}10-9Pa$이하의 초고진공이 얻어졌으며, 액체질소를 투입하여도 압력은 거의 변화하지 않았다. 잔류가스분석장치로 얻은 잔류가스 성분 스펙트럼은 수소가 잔류가스의 대부분을 차지하는 것을 보여주었다.

In this study, preconceptions held by chemistry major secondary school science teachers were searched in relation to explanations of water evaporation phenomena with phase equilibrium diagrams. 25 chemistry major science teachers were selected to complete questionnaires developed in this study and 6 among of them were selected to participate in follow-up interviews. Among these, 10 participants were selected for an evaluation of the change of their preconceptions through lessons developed in this study. From the results, it was found that many teachers believed that the phase equilibrium diagram could not explain water evaporation phenomena. They also thought that there was no relation between vapor pressure and the vertical axis of the phase equilibrium diagram. However, after the lessons in earth science, they recognized that the vapor pressure curve of the phase equilibrium diagram could be explained by adopting a saturated vapor curve. Because they had known the process of application the conceptions of saturated situation, nonsaturated situation, process of equilibrium movement in saturated vapor curve. They could understand natural phenomena such as evaporation with the phase equilibrium diagram through a change in their conceptions as guided from science lessons integrating earth science and chemistry.

The aim of this investigation was study on the non-evaporation diesel spray characteristics injected through a common-rail diesel injector under various ambient pressure. The diesel spray was investigated with observation of macroscopic characteristics such as spray tip penetration and spray cone angle by the shadowgraph and the image processing method. The numerical study was conducted using a computational fluid dynamics code, AVL-FIRE. The breakup models used were WAVE model and standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model was applied. The numerical study used input data which spray cone angle and fuel injection rate was achieved by Zeuch's method. Comparison with experimental result such as spray tip penetration was good agreement. Distribution of droplet diameter were conducted on four planes where the axial distances were 5, 15, 39 and 49mm respectively downstream from the orifice exit.

In this paper, cycle performance analysis for cooling capacity, compression work and COP of R744($CO_2$) transcritical vapor compression refrigeration system is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of the system. The operating parameters considered in this study include superheating degree, outlet temperature of gas cooler and evaporating temperature in the R744 vapor compression cycle. The main results were summarized as follows : The cooling capacity of R744 increases with superheating degree, but decreases with the increasing evaporating temperature and outlet temperature of gas cooler. The compression work increases with superheating degree and cooling pressure of R744, but decreases with the increasing evaporating temperature. And, The COP increases with outlet temperature and evaporating temperature of R744 gas cooler, but decreases with the increasing superheating degree. Therefore, superheating degree, outlet temperature and evaporating temperature of R744 vapor compression refrigeration system have an effect on the cooling capacity, compression work and COP of this system. With a thorough grasp of these effect, it is necessary to design the compression refrigeration cycle using R744.

Desiccation of a soil is basically the removal of water by evaporation, which is controlled by evaporativity and evaporability. Surface evaporation improves the trafficability which is essential for the access of construction equipment in the area reclaimed with soft clay. The existing traditional methods for evaluating evaporation can not account for the deformation of reclaimed soft soils during evaporation. Therefore, a theoretical model for predicting the rate of evaporation from the surface of a deformable material is proposed. The model is based on a system of equations for coupled heat and mass transfer in unsaturated soils. The modified pressure plate extractor test and glass desiccator test were carried out to obtain the soil-water characteristic curve for a deformable soil. The column drying test was conducted to investigate one dimensional water flow, heat flow and evaporation in the surface. A finite difference program was developed to solve the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations, which permit the study of water, vapor and heat flows in the deformable soil. Comparison between measured and simulated values shows a reasonably good matching between the two.

In order to investigate the cooling capacity of an air-conditioner applying a variable capacity compressor and the temperature characteristics on a condenser and an evaporator, the experiment on the operation characteristics of the air-conditioner was performed along a compressor operation ratio and an indoor/outdoor temperatures, under a cooling operation mode. The system characteristics were measured by the psychrometric calorimeter. The cooling capacity increased with decreasing the outdoor temperature and increasing the indoor temperature. Also, it increased with increasing the compressor operation ratio. The temperature of the condenser was more sensitive for the variation of the outdoor temperature and the temperature of the evaporator was more sensitive for the variation of the indoor temperature. The operation characteristics of the cycle used in this present were also analyzed by a pressure-enthalpy chart.

투과증발법은 상부에 액체공급액이 반투과막과 접촉하고 있고 하부에 진공에 가까운 낮은 압력을 걸어줌으로써 투과물이 수증기로 제거되는 막공정의 하나이다. 막을 통한 분리는 혼합물의 각 성분이 막내에서 다른 용해도와 확산도를 가지고 있기 때문에 발생한다. 이 공정의 지배적인 전달 메카니즘은 용해-확산 모델을 기초로 하고 있기 때문에 전형적으로 투과증발막은 대개 미세다공성 지지체에 얇은 선택성을 가진 재료를 입힌 복합막을 사용한다. 본 연구의 목적은 선택성을 가진 상부층막이 키토산인 복합막에서 지지체 구조의 영향을 살펴보고 키토산 복합막에 대한 물-에탄올 분리에 대해 최적의 모델을 찾는 것이다. 투과증발막소재로서의 키토산은 친수성기를 가지고 있으므로 물과 알코올의 분리에서 물만을 선택적으로 흡수하여 투과시키는 우수한 성능을 지니고 있으나 더욱 효과적인 막성능을 발휘하기 위해서는 지지체의 역할 및 막성능에 영향을 끼치는 여러 가지 인자들을 고려해서 막을 설계하는 것이 필요하다. 여기서는 상부층의 막두께, 지지체의 특성, 피드 농도 등을 변화시켜 가장 적당한 모델을 예측하였다.
