The ventilation effectiveness is evaluated as a function of air exchange rate and supply / extract locations in a simplified model chamber using a tracer gas technique of CO$_2$ gas injected into a supply duct. Ventilation systems consist of supply and extract fans, a CO$_2$gas generator, a CO$_2$gas analyzer and a test chamber. The ventilation effectiveness is evaluated using a step-down method based on ASTM Standard E741-83. The room mean age of the model chamber is decreased with increasing air exchange rate fanged from 6to 10 air changes per hour. The ventilation effectiveness of the mechanical inlet/natural extract system is better than that of the mechanical extract system.

It is very desirable that a mixture gas possessing excellent insulation performance is suggested for insulation on increasing high voltage. This paper proposes a $SF_6$ mixture gas based on the factors including dielectric strength, environmental impact and economic feasibility of manufacture for the insulation in eco-friendly power equipment. A suitable-$SF_6$ content was determined to improve the dielectric strength in $N_2$ and Dry Air. The examination results of the factors revealed that a $SF_6$/Dry Air mixture gas possessing the $SF_6$ content was more appropriate than a $SF_6/N_2$ mixture gas to the eco-friendly power equipment. In addition to the selection of the suitable $SF_6$ mixture gas, insulation characteristics as a function of $SF_6$ content were described from electron-detachment mechanism.

Determination of explosion reference pressure is important in designing and testing flameproof enclosures (Ex d). Although relative humidity affects to explosion pressure, its effect is not well investigated for the gas group IIB, IIA, and I. This study tested explosion pressure for Ethylene (8 vol.%), Propane (4.6 vol.%), and Methane (9.8 vol.%), which are the representative gas of the gas group IIB, IIA, and I, at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure (1 atm) under different relative humidity (0% ~ 80%). Ethylene- and Propane-air mixed gases generally tended to decrease as the relative humidity increased; however, explosion pressure was largely dropped at 20% of relative humidity compared to 0% and 10% of relative humidity. On the other hand, Methane-air mixture gas showed similar pressures at 0% and 10% of relative humidity; but no explosion occurred at more than 20%. The results of this study can be used in setting a testing protocol of explosion reference pressure for designing and testing a flameproof enclosure.

The change of flue gas residence time with the location of air inlet in an incinerator is analysed. An independent numerical variable is the location of air inlet and dependant is the residence time of flue gas. The mean value of turbulence energy in a primary combustion chamber is also analysed. The flow field and the distribution of turbulence energy are investigated to evaluate their influence on the residence time of flue gas and the turbulence energy. As the position of secondary air inlet approaches to the top of primary combustion chamber, the residence time of gas and the turbulence energy become longer and larger respectively.

Performance of naturally circulating cooling system of $SF_6$ gas charged transformer was simulated and the variations of gas flow rate, maximum coil temperature, gas temperature and cooling air temperature were investigated with respect to the height of radiator, interplates distance and heat generation rate at core. The results show that the height of radiator most significantly affects the performance of natural circulating cooling system of transformer.

Concern for new and renewable energy is growing globally. Biogas is one of the alternative fuels and consists of methane and carbon dioxide. It is difficult to achieve efficient engine operation due to a lower heating value of biogas compared to that of natural gas. In order to improve generating efficiency, finding an optimum point of ignition timing and excess air ratio is important. From this fact, generating efficiency and pollutant emissions of 2300cc gas engine generator operated by biogas as functions of ignition timings and excess air ratios were investigated in this study. As a test result, the generating efficiency of the gas engine generator using biogas was 27.34 % in the condition of the BTDC of $16^{\circ}$ and the excess air ratio of 1.4.

In this study, the degree of performance changes between the guaranteed performance and the performance after a certain operating start time is calculated by using the performance test of gas turbine CHP. The reason of the performance degradation will then be analysed. For some results of the CHP plant performance tests the comprehensive electric power output was 8,380 kW lower than the guaranteed performance, and the gas turbine's output was reduced to about 250 kW whenever ambient temperatures rose to $1^{\circ}C$. Also, causes of the performance degradation of gas turbines are ambient temperature rise, temperature aging and air compressor's efficiency drop.

This paper investigates ventilation characteristics of an environmental chamber simulating an under-floor air conditioning system for isothermal and cooling supply air conditions. The tracer gas sulfur-hexafluoride (SF$F_6$) was injected into a supply duct using step-up and step-down methods. Local mean and room mean ages were calculated from the concentrations measured at internal points and at the exhaust duct. The air change efficiency of the chamber has been found to be greater in cooling conditions than in isothermal conditions. Also the room air change efficiency is not significantly affected but slightly improved by the presence of a supply diffuser.

In order to investigate the reduction of NO emissions, natural gas was fueled for two-stage combustion apparatus. NO and CO emissions were described by five variables: total air ratio, primary air ratio, secondary air injection position, secondary air injection velocity, and swirl ratio. It was mainly observed that, as the primary air ratios of 0 and 0.4 NO emission decreased with increasing the secondary air injection position and secondary air injection velocity. The effect of weak swirl on NO emission was found to be insignificant.

The characteristics of typical 35 kinds of domestic anthracites among 155 kinds are studied to find the calculation formula for the required quantity of air and the combustion gas quantity. 1) The author's calculation formulae are as follows: ${A_0}={\frac{1, 000}{1, 064}}{H_1}+0.086(Nm^3/kg)$ ${G_0}={\frac{1, 000}{1, 110}}{H_1}+0.234(Nm^3/kg)$(1) Theoretically required quantity of air (2) Theoretical quantity of combustion gas 2) Theoretical quantity of air in combustion of domestic anthracite is always estimated more with Rosin's formula than author's one in the typical domestic anthracites which have the lower calorific value between 3, 000-8, 000 Kcal/kg and the difference of the calculated quantity of air becomes small, as the calorific value increases. 3) Theoretical quantity of combustion gas is estimated more by author's formula than by Rosin's one with the domestic anthracites which have more calorific value than 6, 700 Kcal/kg and is estimated less in the under range of the above calorific value. 4) Theoretical quantity of required air and quantity of combustion gas of domestic anthracite show ${\pm}$4% difference by Rosin's formulae in comparison with results of actual analysis, and about ${\pm}$1.5% by the author's one.
