Optimal drying conditions consisting of air temperature and relative humidity were searched by the simulation-optimization technique for minimizing quality changes in red pepper drying. Optimized drying conditions were analysed in the viewpoint of quality change kinetics and effects of control variables on the state variables. Optimal drying conditions were nearly same in both cases for carotenoid maximization and browning minimization. In two staged optimized drying, relative humidity took a lower search limit of about 10%, and air temperature in the first stage was near the lower limit of $50^{\circ}C$ and in second stage increased to a higher temperature varying with total drying time and stage changing time. Response surface analysis of time invariable drying confirmed the location of the optimal point lying on the vertex of lower limit humidity and a lowest drying temperature which ensures to attain target moisture of 0.2g water/g dry solid. Two stage drying can attain the higher objective function of quality by 3-5% than time invariable drying for shorter total drying times.

Recently the artificial intelligence green house system, which collects automatically the informations of plants cultivation circumstances and controls the growing circumstances, is studied using temperature, humidity and illuminance sensors. In this paper, the inference for plants cultivation of optimum circumstance conditions is simulated on the internet bases by predicting the temperature, humidity and illuminance. On the IOT circumstances, the plant cultivation conditions of temperature, humidity and illuminance, using Arduino sensor, are transmitted to the manager on realtime and if the optimum condition of temperature and humidity for plant cultivation is not equal to the values, the system transmits automatically the SMS warning messages on realtime. Although the sudden climite conditions(snow, rain, hot weather) are occurred, the optimum condition of plant cultivation can be controlled. In this paper, using Fuzzy rules and WEKA TOOL, although the same flora temperature zone is used, the simulation is produced for the optimum value of temperature, humidity and illuminance for the zone.

In this study, if the set temperature of the refrigerator differs from the set temperature of the refrigerator, the temperature distribution of food in the refrigerator is estimated by measuring the temperature in the refrigerator and in the refrigerator room. In addition, based on the set temperature of the refrigerator and the freezer, the temperature range of the heat is large and the time required to recover to the set temperature is to be determined. And the optimal setting temperature for home refrigerators is to be shown by measuring the amount of power consumed to recover to the set temperature. As a result, the conditions in which the temperature in the freezer realized $-18^{\circ}C$ were only appropriate in case 3, Case 6, Case 8, and Case 9 when the set temperature in the refrigerator was lower than that in the freezer. Under these conditions, the minimum temperature in the refrigerator was $-1.1^{\circ}C$, Case 6 was $-1.5^{\circ}C$, Case 8 was $-1.1^{\circ}C$ and Case 9 was $-0.8^{\circ}C$, respectively. Also, the total power consumption during the 10 hours operation time of each case was greater than the setting temperature of the freezer and the refrigerator except case 4, since case 4 started operation around 13:30 in the morning.

This study was designed to investigate the method of the simultaneous determination of water-soluble vitamins (thiamine, ascorbic acid, riboflavin, folic acid, cyanocobalamine, pyridoxin, nicotinic acid) by free soloution capillary electrophoresis. Factors affecting on the separation were pH of the buffer, applied voltage and temperature. On-column detection at 254 nm allowed accurate and reproducible determination of these compounds. All these compounds were separated within ca. 8 min with fused silica capillary at 20 kV.

An analytical equation to estimate the Rankine power cycle efficiency at maximum power for the given mass flow rates of heating and cooling fluids is derived. The accuracy of the result is shown by comparing the analytical values with those calculated one using detailed thermodynamic data. The results indicate that the thermal efficiency at maximum power depends primarily on the initial temperatures of the heating and cooling fluids, and it also depends on the pinch-temperature differences between the working fluid and the heating and cooling fluids. The efficiency at maximum power provides a measure of the power available in a practical Rankine heat engine.

This paper introduces a study on reliability-driven device placement using simulated annealing algorithm which can be applicable to MCM or electronic systems embedded in a spacecraft running at thermal conduction environment. Reliability of the unit's has been predicted with the devices' junction temperatures calculated from FDM solver and optimized by simulated annealing algorithm. Simulated annealing in this paper adopts swapping devices method as a perturbation. This paper describes and compares the optimization simulation results with respect to two objective functions: minimization of failure rate and minimization of average junction temperature. Annealing temperature variation simulation case and equilibrium coefficient variation simulation case are also presented at the two respective objective functions. This paper proposes a new approach for reliability optimization of MCM and electronic systems considering those simulation results.

In the membrane forming process of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), drying and annealing heat treatment processes are required for performance and durability. In this study, the optimal annealing temperature for improving the durability of the polymer membrane was studied. It was annealed in the temperature range of 125~175 ℃, and thermal stability and hydrogen permeability were measured as basic data of durability at each annealing temperature. The electrochemical durability was analyzed by Fenton reaction and open circuit voltage (OCV) holding. The annealing temperature of 165 ℃ was the optimal temperature in terms of thermal stability and hydrogen permeability. In the Fenton reaction, the fluorine emission rate of the membrane annealed at 165 ℃ was the lowest, and the lifespan of the membrane annealed at 165 ℃ was the longest in the OCV holding experiment, confirming that 165 ℃ was the optimal temperature for the durability of the polymer membrane.

In this paper, we analyzed the problems of a batch-type sterilizer and design a continuous sterilizer to control the temperature deviation. The temperature deviation is analyzed with respect to design parameters such as a nozzle diameter, hole diameter, and nozzle length. The significant temperature parameters are optimized using the response surface methodology. An experimental apparatus is developed using the optimized design parameters. Using a field test, we show that the target temperature is obtained in about 7.3 minutes and the temperature deviation is improved about $0.84^{\circ}C$. The optimized parameters from the test are equal to the analytical parameters.

The purpose of installation of the brine heating system for LNG storage tank is the prevention of ground freezing. If the ground of LNG tank areas is frozen, it is caused by safety problems. The design of brine heating system for LNG storage tank which is constructing in our country is not well considered about domestic weather conditions and economical efficiency. Therefore, this paper reports on the study of the optimized temperature of inside pipes and cooling process through the transient analysis by using the existing brine heating system.

광소자 및 새로운 개념의 전력소자 응용을 위하여 Wide Bandgap 반도체에 대한 관심이 급증되고 있다. 특히 직접천이형인 GaN는 청색 발광소자 응용 및 고출력, 고주파용 전력소자 응용에 이상적인 전자물성을 갖고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 GaCl$_3$와 NH$_3$를 source gas로 하는 CVPE법을 사용하여 (0001) sapphire와 비교하였다. 기판의 증착온도 104$0^{\circ}C$에서 source gas의 III/V flow rate를 2로 분석하여 45분간 성장시킨 경우 그 증착속도는 약 40 $\mu\textrm{m}$/hr 정도였으며, 이 때 XRD을 향상시키기 위하여 증착이전에 기판의 표면에 증착온도에서 NH$_3$를 이용한 nitridation 처리를 하였으며, 그 처리시간이 3분일 때 XRD의 FWHM 특성이 가하여 조사한 결과 363 nm에서 peak가 검출되었다. 본 연구에서는 양질의 GaN 박막성장을 위한 증착조건 인자중 source gas의 flow rate가 가장 중요한 변수임을 적정 온도 범위가 75$0^{\circ}C$ 근처로 조사되었다. 실험과 모사결과의 박막 증착 최적온도의 차이는 GaN 증착시의 반응 Kinetics가 느리기 때문인 것으로 해석된다.
