Slim telecommunication cabinet cooler, equipped with parallel flow heat exchangers and operating with R-22, is developed. The performance is compared with imported one, equipped with fin-tube heat exchangers and operating with R-134a. Test results show that the newly-developed cooler increases the cooling capacity by 6% and EER by 33%. The refrigerant charge for the developed cooler is 500g compared with 1250g for the imported one. The adoption of parallel flow heat exchanger appears to have reduced the refrigerant charge. In addition, it is shown that the reduced air flow rates through parallel heat exchangers as compared with those through fin-tube heat exchangers are beneficial to the reduction of the equipment noise.

증발기의 형태에 따라 수치적 해석을 진행하면서 최적의 효율을 나타낼 수 있는 증발기를 설계하는 것이 중요하다. 증발기의 수치적 해석은 EES 프로그램을 이용하여 진행되었으며, 계산의 검증은 자사의 제품의 성능과 비교하면서 검증하였다. 증발기의 수치적 해석의 구성은 지배방정식과 연속방정식을 이용하여, 냉매의 총괄열전달계수, 관내외벽의 열전도율, 공기의 총괄열전달계수를 이용하여 총괄열전달계수를 계산하였으며, 총괄열전달계수를 이용하여 증발기의 열량을 계산하였다. 증발기의 수치적 해석과 자사 제품 5개의 제품과 비교하였고, 평균적으로 약 10%의 오차율을 보였다. 신뢰성이 확보된 계산식을 이용하여 Fin의 간격, 단위 질량유량, 열 교환 코일 길이, 풍량의 조건을 각각 변동시켜 증발기 열량 비교를 하며 경향성을 고찰하였다. Fin의 간격을 1mm에서 20mm으로 0.5mm 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 핀 간격이 좁으면 공기 유속이 빨라져 열 교환 효율이 낮아지며, 반대로 넓어지면 냉매 유량에 비해 공기 유량이 많기 때문에 열 교환 효율이 낮아진다. 열 교환 코일 길이를 500mm에서 2400mm으로 50mm 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 열 교환 코일 길이가 길어질수록 배관의 마찰력과 냉매의 온도 상승으로 인하여 공기 온도와의 온도 차이가 줄어들어 열 교환 효율은 낮아진다. 풍량을 20cmm에서 400cmm으로 10cmm 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 일정 풍량 이상 올라가면 공기 유속이 빨라져서 열량이 낮아지는 경향을 보인다. 질량유량을 3g/sec에서 174g/sec으로 4.5g/sec 간격으로 변화 시켰을 경우, 질량 유량에 따라 비례적으로 열량이 높아지는 경향을 보이다가 일정 질량 유량 이상에서는 공기 풍량에 비해 냉매 유량이 많기 때문에 반비례적으로 열량이 낮아진다. 이처럼 증발기의 설계는 Fin 간격, 열 교환 코일 길이, 풍량, 질량유량 등을 복합적으로 고려하여 증발기 설계를 해야 하며, 저장고의 크기, 부하, 사용목적에 따라 최적화된 증발기를 설계하여야 한다.

Attenuation correction is important in producing quantitative positron emission tomography (PET) images. Conventionally, photon attenuation effects are corrected using transmission measurements performed before tracer administration. The pre-injection transmission measurement approach may require a time delay between transmission and emission scans for the tracer studies requiring a long uptake period, about 45 minutes for F-18 deoxyglucose study. The time delay will limit patient throughput and increase the likelihood of patient motion. A technique lot performing simultaneous transmission and emission scans (T+E method) after the tracer injection has been validated. The T+E method substracts the emission counts contaminating the transmission measurements to produce accurate attenuation correction coefficients. This method has been evaluated in experiments using a cylindrical phantom filled with background water (5750 cc) containing $0.4{\mu}Ci/cc$ of F-18 fluoride ion and one insert cylinder (276 cc) containing $4.3{\mu}Ci/cc$. GE $Advance^{TM}$ PET scanner and Ge-68 rotating pin sources for transmission scanning were used for this investigation. Post-injection transmission scan and emission scan were peformed alternatively over time. The error in emission images corrected using post-infection transmission scan to emission images corrected transmission scan was 2.6% at the concentration of $1.0{\mu}Ci/cc$. No obvious differences in image quality and noise were apparent between the two images. The attenuation correction can be accomplished with post-injection transmission measurement using rotating pin sources and this method can significantly shorten the time between transmission and omission scans and thereby reduce the likelihood of patient motion and increase scanning throughput in PET.

In this paper, in order to consider SAR(Specific Absorption Rate) problem at the beginning stage of a handset development, we investigated the Shh value change by using simulation method according to various EMI(Electromagnetic Interference) paint patterns on front case of a handset and folding angles. First, we made some experiments with EMI paint pattern on front case of a handset, and obtained results showed that different patterns of EMI paint had different SAR values. Among the simulation results on SAR value according to EMI paint patterns, the hairpin pattern showed the best performance, i.e. the decrease efficiency of $8.04\%$ and completely removed pattern showed the decrease efficiency of $5.94\%$. Orignal pattern was set as the reference and the folding angle was $150^{\circ}$. Second, simulation was carried out with changing folding angle from $150^{\circ}$ to $140^{\circ}$ and $160^{\circ}$. Simulation results for the modeled handset showed that SAR value was decreased with increasing the folding angle. When the folding angle was $160^{\circ}$ and with original pattern, we got the SAR value of about 1,61 W/kg. When we applied hairpin pattern with the folding angle of $160^{\circ}$, we got the lowest SAR value of about 1.45 W/kg.

In this study, the generation efficiency of the limited area of a concentrator solar cell was increased by using a solar concentrator and a tracking device. Heat generated by the solar cell was collected using a thermal absorber for supplying hot water or heating. Thus, the concentrator solar cell system provided electricity and heat simultaneously. Tracking of the sun by detecting the sun's position, repositioning of heating device towards the east after sunset, and shutting down of system after sunset were successfully implemented using an illuminance sensor (CdS) and Simulink, a commercial software package. We performed parametric analysis of the velocity, fin installation, and entrance location with respect to the operating temperature of the concentrator solar cell. A heat transfer simulation model was developed for comparing the actual temperature profiles of the concentrator solar cell and thermal absorber, and good agreement was found between the results of the simulations and the experiments.

This paper showed the difference in the optimum conditions by using the ANSYS CFX simulation program with the changes of the main-blade angle and sub-blade angle. Main-blade Shape 4,which had angle $45^{\circ}$ while other Shapes with angle $0^{\circ}$, was increased to 157.2[%] to 263.2[%] in the power and was increased to 110[%] to 250[%] in the power coefficient. Moreover, when the Shape 5 Fin length of main-blade doubled, the power was 70.8[%] when compared with Shape 1 and 27.5[%] with shape 4.If the main-blade geometry equals shape 1 in the case structure, The power of Case1 was increased to 13.3[%] when compared with Case2. Also, the power coefficient was increased to 15.4[%]. When sub-blade angle was $45^{\circ}$, main-blade was better than the Fin type than the Bended type. The power of Case4 was increased to 47[%] when compared with Csae1 and increased to 13.6[%] with Case 3. Also, the power coefficient was 46.7[%] when compared with Case 1 and 15.8[%] with Case 3.
