The Taguchi method was applied to investigate the effect of design factors on the performance of the shutdown cooling heat exchanger in the SMART-P. This method provided the simulation matrix for the KDESCENT program and an efficient tool for analyzing the simulation results. Levels of the design factors were selected by the effectiveness-NTU method. From 18 runs with the KDESCENT program, it was found that the performance of the system was greatly influenced by the inlet temperature at the shell side and the mass flow rate of the reactor coolant at the tube side. After applying the Taguchi method, we identified the important design factor that should be controlled and designed carefully. This method provides an efficient way to estimate the influence of each design factor on a system performance.

Single crystals of rare-earth iron garnets were grown from solutions of molten lead oxide, lead fluoride, baric oxide, iron oxide, and the oxides of yttrium, samarium orgadolinium. The crystals were grown by slow cooling technique. A convenient composition was 41.8mol% PbO, 20.59mol% PbF2, 8.23mol% B2O3, 20.00mol% Fe2O3 and 10.00mol% R2O3 where R is Y, Sm or Gd. For this experiment, platinum crucibles of size 20, 30cc and a vertical siliconit tube furnace were used. The precipitation temperature of YIG was observed in the range of 115$0^{\circ}C$-112$0^{\circ}C$ and the optimum growth conditions in this experiment were determined. The nucleation rate was controlled by the holding time after the fast colling, the growth rate by the slow cooling conditiions. The form of the grown YIG crystals showed a combination of {110} and {211}, and the size of the crystals grown in this experiment was up to about 9mm under the conditions of holding time 16hour, cooling rate 2$^{\circ}C$/hr. and temperature range 115$0^{\circ}C$-90$0^{\circ}C$. The precipitatin temperature of SmIG was observed in the range of 105$0^{\circ}C$-98$0^{\circ}C$ and the size of the crystals grown in this experiment was up to about 5mm under the conditiions of holding time 16hours, cooling rate 2$^{\circ}C$/hr. and temperature range 100$0^{\circ}C$-80$0^{\circ}C$.

The liquid desiccant air-conditioning system has been proposed as an alternative to the conventional vapor compression cooling systems to control air humidity. The complete system of liquid desiccant air-conditioning system is consisted two main components those are humidifier (regeneration) and dehumidifier. Humidifier part is connected to the load when summer season which is the air condition is hot and humid have to be turned into comfort condition on human. This paper purpose is performances study of air flow rate effect on a structured packed tower on cooling and dehumidifier system using liquid lithium chloride as the desiccant. Experimental apparatus used in this present study is consisted of three components those are load chamber, packed tower and chiller. Load chamber’s volume is $40m^3$, and packed tower dimension is cubic with length 0.4m occupied with packed column. Totally, 15 experimental has done using 5 times repeat on each variable of air velocity that varying on 2m/s, 3m/s and 4m/s with other conditions are controlled. Air inlet initial temperature and relative humidity are set respectively on $30^{\circ}C$ and 52%, desiccant flow rate is 0.63 kg/s, desiccant temperature is $10^{\circ}C$ and desiccant concentration is 0.4. The result of this study shows that averagely, the moisture removal rate and the heat transfer rate are influenced by the air velocity. Higher air velocity will increase the heat transfer and decreasing the moisture removal rate. At adiabatic condition the air velocity of 2 m/s respectively is having the higher moisture removal rate acceleration then the air velocity of 3m/s and 4 m/s until the steady state condition.

Effect of quenching medium on the mechanical properties of ductil iron GCD 50 has been investigated using ADI treated specimens. The specimens have been austenitized at $900^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, followed by controlled cooling to $800^{\circ}C$ under the cooling rate of $0.05^{\circ}C/sec$, then austempered at $380^{\circ}C$, $330^{\circ}C$, $280^{\circ}C$ and $230^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The specimens treated in the salt of 5% water were found to have higher tensile strength than that of the normal salt bath. Elongation and impact energy increased in proportion to the increase of retained austenite volume fraction. The increase of cooling rate of the salt by the addition of 5% water to the salt resulted in the increase of retained austenite volume fraction and the formation of fine bainitic ferrite.

The present study has been directed at developing thermal models to investigate the dynamic behavior of a solar cooling system including an absorption chiller, solar collectors, a hot water storage tank, a fan coil unit, and the air-conditioned space. The operation of the system was simulated for 8 hours in two different operation modes. In the mode 1, the system operated without any capacity control.0 the mode 2, an auxiliary boiler supplied heat to the generator if hot water temperature became lower than a certain value. Moreover, the mass flow rate of hot water to the generator was controlled by comparing the instantaneous room air temperature with the design value. The variation of temperature and concentration in the system components and that of heat transfer rates in the system were obtained for both modes of operation. It was found that the room temperature was maintained near the desired value in the mode 2 by supplying auxiliary heat or controlling the mass flow rate of hot water, while the deviation of room temperature was quite great in the mode 2.

A micro-macroscopic analysis on the conduction-controlled directional casting of Al-Cu alloys is performed, in which emphases are placed on the microstructural features. In order to facilitate the solution procedure, an iterative micro-macroscopic coupling algorithm is developed. The predicted results show that the effect of finite back diffusion on the transient solidification process in comparison with the lever rule depends essentially on the initial concentration of an alloy. In the final casting, the eutectic fraction is distributed in an increasing-decreasing-increasing pattern, each mode of which is named the chill, interior and end zones. This nonuniformity per se suffices to justify the necessity of this work because it originates from the combined effects of finite back diffusion and cooling path-dependent nature of the eutectic formation. As the cooling rate is enhanced, not only the influence depths of boundaries narrow, but also the eutectic fractions in the chill and interior zones increase. In addition, it is revealed for the first time that the micro segregation band is formed in response to a sudden change in cooling rate during the directional casting. An increasing change creates an overshooting band in the eutectic fraction distribution, and vice versa.

Experiments were performed to study solidification of phase change material on a finned vertical tube when either conduction In the solid or natural convection in a liquid controls the heat transfer. The liquid was housed in a cylindrical containment vessel whose surface was maintained at a uniform, time-invariment temperature during a data run, and the solidification occurred at a finned and unfinned vertical tube positioned along the axis of the vassel. The phase change material(PCM) employed in this experiment is 99 percent pure n-Octacosan paraffin($C -{28}H_{58}/$). For conduction-controlled and convection-controlled solidification, the enhancement of the solidified mass rate due to finning is great when the solidified layer is thin and decreases as the layer grows thicker. It is studied that the latent energy($E_{\lambda}$) is the largest contributor to the total extracted energy($E_{\lambda} ＋ E_{sl}＋E_{s2}$) and the total extracted energy rate at a finned vertical tube is greater than that at a unfinned vertical tube.

Nuclear rings are sites of intense star formation at the center of barred spiral galaxies. A straightforward but unanswered question is what controls star formation rate (SFR) in nuclear rings. To understand how the ring SFR is related to mass inflow rate, gas content, and background gravitational field, we run a series of semi-global hydrodynamic simulations of nuclear rings, adopting the TIGRESS framework to handle radiative heating and cooling as well as star formation and supernova feedback. We find: 1) when the mass inflow rate is constant, star formation proceeds in a remarkably steady fashion, without showing any burst-quench behavior suggested in the literature; 2) the steady state SFR has a simple linear relationship with the inflow rate rather than the ring gas mass; 3) the midplane pressure balances the weight of the overlying gas and the SFR surface density is linearly correlated with the midplane pressure, consistent with the self-regulated star formation theory. We suggest that the ring SFR is controlled by the mass inflow rate in the first place, while the gas mass adjusts to the resulting feedback in the course of achieving the vertical dynamical equilibrium.

본 연구에서는 증기발생기 내부로 냉각수 공급 시 화염에 의한 냉각수 분사 노즐 손상이 없도록, 초반 냉각수 공급량을 늘리는 방안에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 초기 증기발생기 시험 시 벤추리만 사용하여 유량을 제어하였는데, 초반 유량 안정화 구간 동안 연소실 내부로 냉각수 공급이 되지 않아 냉각수 노즐의 손상이 발생하였다. 이를 해결하기 위해 벤추리와 오리피스를 병렬로 구성하여, 초반 공급 유량을 늘림으로써 냉각수 매니폴드와 연소실 사이 차압을 형성시켜 냉각수를 공급하였다. 수류시험을 통해 벤추리와 오리피스 공급 시퀀스를 확립하였으며, 최종 검증을 위해 연소실험을 진행하였다. 실험 결과 연소 초반 지속적으로 냉각수를 공급하는 것을 확인하였으며, 냉각수 노즐 손상 없이 성공적으로 실험을 수행하였다.
