  • Agriculture is probably the most weather-dependent of all human activities. Variations lil climate have been, and continue to be, the principal source of fluctuations in global food production, particularly in the semi-arid tropical countries of the developing world. Throughout history, extremes of heat and cold, droughts and floods, and various forms of violent weather have wreaked havoc on the agricultural systems that depend on for food.(omitted)

  • In recent days, the study for the renewable energy is required to supplement traditional energy source. One of the renewable energy of Fuel Cell is classified according to the electrolytes. It is the MCFC (Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell) for this study. One of the equipments of the heat exchangers is important component for efficiency and cost. In MCFC system, several heat exchangers are used according to the application. It is named for the humidifier because it is to preheat the fuel and water so that a reactor will convert some of the incoming fuel to hydrogen. Then, hot side fluid service is used the exhausted gas from the fuel cell and cold side fluid service is the fuel and water. The operation temperature range is about 25~500 Celsius Degree. This heat exchanger has the problems of heat transfer considering to multiphase fluid and phase changing. So it is necessary to analyze the heat transfer characteristics and to propose the reasonable design methodology for the humidifier. In this study, the thermal characteristic for the humidifier is estimated by using commercial tool of heat exchanger design and rating. And this study provides the testing methodology and presents the results for test facility of fabrication and for testing.

  • The heat transfer problem associated with pulse technique for measuring thermal diffusivity was solved by means of Green function. The obtained general solution was discussed so as to apply for all possible cases; kinds of boundary condition and heat source, irradiation positions of heat pulse, radius of heat pulse, one-and two-dimensional heat flow, finite pulse time effects and radiation heat loss systems. Experimentally, the laser flash lamp was used as heat source for measuring thermal diffusivity of low carbon, aluminium chilled steel plate, which was heavily rolled in order to measure the variation of thermal diffusivity in the temperature range from room temperature through 500.deg. C. The derived results are (1) materials produced from same furnace showed a somewhat different thermal diffusivity values. (2) the thermal diffusivity value of rolled material was smaller than unrolled material and the difference decreased as increasing temperature. (3) the thermal diffusivity value of an annealed and temper rolled material was larger than the value of a cold rolled material, even thought smaller than unrolled material. (4) In case of heavy rolled material, there was no consistent relationships between the thermal diffusivity and the reduction in thickness.

  • Ojectives : To indicate source of prescriptions in "Wenbingtiaobian" and draw pathologic consideration for differences between prescription and source. Methods : Analysed cause and mechanism of disease, pattern identification, treatment, prescriptions and medicinal herbs based on "Translation of Wenbingtiaobian", "Modern Shanhanlun", "Jinkuiyaolueyishi", "Medical collection of Yetianshi" and "Herbal Formula Science". Results : 64.5% of prescriptions in "Wenbingtiaobian" are derived from "Linzhengzhinanyian", "shanghanlun" or "Jinkuiyaolue". Prescriptions from "shanghanlun" or "Jinkuiyaolue" have been modified to fit for heat pattern differentiations, to expand or reduce their medicinal scope, to build up efficacy by adding cold herbs, herbs of nourishing yin, engendering fluid or outthrusting through the exterior, to diffuse water-dampness or warm yang by adding warm herbs. Prescriptions from "Linzhengzhinanyian" have been modified to eliminate cold-dampness, disperse and outthrust with lightness, tonify yin. Conclusions : Wenbingtiaobian" inherited "Linzhengzhinanyian", "shanghanlun" nd "Jinkuiyaolue" andchanged and developed them to cure the febrile disease in the aspect of prescription, mechanism of disease, pattern differentiation and treatment.

  • Efforts have been made in this paper to develop the measuring device for the insulation performance of full scale NO96 LNG CCS. The facility was designed to maintain environmental conditions which are similar to operation conditions of full scale LNG CCS. In the facility, the heat sink boundary was kept cryogenic temperature by cold chamber which contains liquefied nitrogen and heat source boundary was made by external case heated by natural convection. Heat Flow Meter method (HFM) was applied to this facility, hence Heat Flux Sensors (HFS) were attached to specimen. The equivalent thermal conductivity of full scale NO96 unit box was targeted to measure and PUF of same size was used for the calibration test. Additionally, the finite element analysis was carried out to check the performance of the developed test facility and experimental results were also compared with those predicted by the numerical method.

  • We compared relative importance of thermal conductivity and initial ground temperature in designing borehole heat exchanger network and also we test accuracy of ground temperature estimation in thermal response test using a proven 3-D T-H modeler. The effect of error in estimating ground temperature on calculated total length of borehole heat exchanger was more than 3 times larger than the case of thermal conductivity in maximum 20% error range. Considering 10% of error in estimating thermal conductivity is generally acceptable, we have to define the initial ground temperature within 5% confidence level. Utilizing the mean annual ground surface temperature and the geothermal gradient map compiled so far can be a economic way of estimating ground temperature with some caution. When performing thermal response test for estimating ground temperature as well as measuring thermal conductivity, minimum 100 minutes of ambient circulation is required, which should be even more in case of very cold and hot seasons.

  • The energy conversion from the temperature difference between hot and cold source like ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC), requires a long and large-diameter pipe (about 1000 to 10,000 meters long) to reach the deep water. The pipe diameter ranges from 2.8 meter for proposed early test systems, to 5 meter for large, commercial power generation systems. The pipe must be designed to resist collapsing pressures produced by water temperature and density differences, and the reduced pressure required to induce flow up the pipe. Other design considerations include the external-drag effect on the pipe due to ocean currents, and the wave-induced motions of the platform to which the pipe is attached. Various approaches to the pipe construction have been proposed, including aluminum, steel, concrete, and fiberglass. More recently, a flexible pipe construction involving the use of fiberglass reinforced plastic has been proposed. This report presents the results of a scaled fixed cold water pipe (CWP) model test program performed by EES(Engineering Equation Solver) to demonstrate the feasibility of this pipe approach.

  • A numerical simulation was carried out to investigate the mechanism of snowfall around the Seoul region during a cold air-outbreak in the winter season. A particular case was selected for this study(Dec. 19, 1999). The inflow directions of the synoptic flow in the upper and lower levels were westerly and north-westerly, respectively. Plus, there was a deep trough and thermal ridge at a level of 500/700/850 hPa over the Bal-Hae region, in the northern part of the Korean peninsula. According to the model results, snowfall occurred around the Seoul region with the simultaneous existence of a strong static instability in the lower atmosphere, northerly or westerly dry air advection, and strong thermal advection toward the Seoul region. There was a strong convergence thereby indicating the existence of convective rolls in the clouds. The main energy source of convection over the Yellow sea was a sensible heat flux. The main moisture source was convection. Radiative cooling in the cloud layer intensified the static instability in the lower atmosphere.

  • Thermoelectric module is a device that can produce cooling in a direct manner using the electrical energy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of thermoelectric module and cooling system equipped with the thermoelectric module. The performance of a thermoelectric module is estimated using two methods; theoretical analysis based on one-dimensional energy equations and experimental tests using heat source, heat sink and brass conduction extenders. For the thermoelectric cooling system, the temperatures in the chamber are recorded and then compared with those of lumped system analysis. The results show that the cooling capacity and COP of the thermoelectric module increases as the temperature difference between hot and cold surface decreases, and there is particular current at which cooling capacity reaches its maximum value. The experimental results for the thermoelectric cooling system are similar to those of lumped system analysis.

  • In case of attaching thermoelectric module and heat source, the polymer sheet is attached on the $AL_{2}O_3$ plate, which Is cold and hot side of thermoelectric module, in order to enhance mechanical safty of the system. It is impossible to calculate the exact distribution of temperature and flow pattern of inner gap of thermoelectric module. Therefore CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis was executed to determine the thermo-fluid phenomena and distribution by Fluent. As the result of these analysis, heat transfer was dominated by conduction and the difference of temperature was linear distribution according to the thickness of polymer sheet.
