The characteristics of energy Performance for total heat exchanger have been investigated under various conditions. In cooling operation the latent and enthalpy efficiency are affected by the difference of absolute humidity ratio between indoor and outdoor air. In addition to this the characteristics of absorbing material in the element affects the energy performance. Low dry bulb temperature of indoor air or high absolute humidity ratio in outdoor air give high latent and enthalpy efficiency even with the same temperature difference of dry bulb temperate between indoor and outdoor air.

최근 가정용 에어컨은 냉방효율뿐 아니라 소음에 대한 중요성이 지속적으로 높아지고 있다. 로터리 압축기는 에어컨의 소음 중 매우 높은 영향도를 가지고 있으며, 압축기의 소음을 줄이기 위해 머플러 및 공명기에 관한 많은 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 압축기의 부품 중 어큐뮬레이터는 큰 용적으로 인해 공명에 의한 추가 소음을 에어컨에 전달하는 소음 전달경로가 되며, 어큐뮬레이터의 내부구조는 소음저감을 위해 중요한 설계요소가 되나 지금까지는 연구결과가 미비한 수준이었다. 본 논문에서는 어큐뮬레이터의 소음 저감을 위해 목표주파수 대역에서의 투과손실이 최대가 되는 설계최적화를 수행하였다. 높은 비선형성을 가진 문제의 최적화를 위해 실험계획법과 반경기저신경망기법을 이용한 근사 모델을 사용하였으며, 유전알고리즘을 사용한 최적화를 수행하였다.

In this study, to make an excellent heat pipe, the manufacturing technology of a sintered wick was investigated. Making a sintered wick is known to be very difficult but it has many advantages. For example, the porosity and pore size can be controlled and the capillary force is great. The mixture of copper and pore former powder was used as a wick material and ceramic-coated stainless steel was used as a mandrel which is necessary for vapor flow. To analyze the feature of the manufactured wick, not only porosity and pore size were measured but also the sintered structure was observed. A heat pipe with sintered wick was manufactured and the performance test of the heat pipe was performed in order to review cooling performance. The performance test results for the 4mm diameter heat pipe with the sintered wick shows the stability since the temperature difference between a evaporator and a condenser of the heat pipe is less than 4.4$^{\circ}C$, and thermal resistance is less than 0.7$^{\circ}C$/W, In the meantime the composite wick that is composed with sintered and woven wire was also examined. The heat transfer limit of the heat pipe with composite wick was enhanced about 51%~60% compare to the one with sintered wick.

In this paper, a thermopneumatic PMDS (polydimethlysiloxane) micropump with nozzle/diffuser elements is presented. The micropump is composed of nozzle/diffuser elements as dynamic valves, an actuator consisting of a circular PDMS diaphragm and a Cr/Au heater on a glass substrate. Four PDMS layers are used for fabrication of an actuator chamber, actuator diaphragm by a spin coating process, spacer layer, and nozzle/diffuser by the SU-8 molding process. The radius and thickness of the actuator diaphragm is 2 mm and 30 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, respectively. The length and the conical angle of the nozzle/diffuser elements are 3.5 mm and 20$^{\circ}$, respectively. The actuator diaphragm is driven by the air cavity pressure variation caused by ohmic heating and natural cooling. The flow rate of the micropump in the frequency domain is measured for various duty cycles of the square wave input voltage. When the square wave input voltage of 5 V DC is applied to the heater, the maximum flow rate of the micropump is 44.6 ${mu}ell$/min at 100 Hz with a duty ratio of 80% under the zero pressure difference.

본 논문에서는 위상지연필터를 이용한 리니어 모터 피스톤 진폭 추정기를 구현하였다. 리니어 컴프레서가 적용된 냉장고나 에어컨의 냉각능력을 제어하기 위해서는 단위시간동안 피스톤의 움직인 거리, 즉 피스톤의 속도를 제어해야 하는데 이때 리니어 모터의 주파수나 스트로크를 조정함으로써 가능하다. 이때, 주파수를 고정하고 스트로크를 변화시키는 것이 일반적이다. 스트로크, 즉 피스톤 진폭을 정확하게 추정하는 것이 리니어 컴프레서의 동특성을 좌우하는데, 본 연구에서는 위상지연필터를 이용한 피스톤 진폭 추정기를 제안하고 성능이 우수함을 모의실험을 통해 확인하였다.

The noise pattern of a household refrigerator is dependent on the characteristics of its operating cycle which is repeated with a specific pattern depending on various parameters, such as room temperature and performance of its mechanical parts. Analysis of noise pattern is essential prior to evaluation of sound quality of a refrigerator. In this study, 14 units of refrigerator were classified into 4 types according to noise pattern and sort of mechanical part, which helps to analyze characteristics of refrigerator noise. Sound quality metrics(loudness, sharpness, roughness, and fluctuation strength) were calculated to compare noise pattern of the 4 types of refrigerator. The results of this study can be useful to decide noise performance of refrigerator.

본 논문에서는 위상지연필터를 이용한 전류제어 루프를 갖는 선형압축기의 스트로크 제어기를 구현하였다. 선형압축기가 적용된 냉장고나 에어컨의 냉각능력을 제어하기 위해서는 단위시간동안 피스톤의 움직인 거리, 즉 피스톤의 속도를 제어해야 하는데 이때 리니어 모터의 주파수나 스트로크를 조정함으로써 가능하다. 이때, 주파수를 고정하고 스트로크를 변화시키는 것이 일반적이다. 인가된 전류를 정밀하게 제어하는 것이 선형압축기의 동특성을 좌우하는데, 본 연구에서는 전류제어 루프를 갖는 피스톤 진폭 제어기를 제안하고 성능이 우수함을 모의실험을 통해 확인하였다.

A fully coupled finite element analysis (FEA) technique was developed for analyzing the discharge phenomena and dielectric liquid flow while considering surface charge density effects in dielectric flow guidance. In addition, the simulated speed of surface charge propagation was compared and verified with the experimental results shown in the literature. Recently, electrohydrodynamics (EHD) techniques have been widely applied to enhance the cooling performance of electromagnetic systems by utilizing gaseous or liquid media. The main advantage of EHD techniques is the non-contact and low-noise nature of smart control using an electric field. In some cases, flow can be achieved using only a main electric field source. The driving sources in EHD flow are ionization in the breakdown region and ionic dissociation in the sub-breakdown region. Dielectric guidance can be used to enhance the speed of discharge propagation and fluidic flow along the direction of the electric field. To analyze this EHD phenomenon, in this study, the fully coupled FEA was composed of Poisson's equation for an electric field, charge continuity equations in the form of the Nernst-Planck equation for ions, and the Navier-Stokes equation for an incompressible fluidic flow. To develop a generalized numerical technique for various EHD phenomena that considers fluidic flow effects including dielectric flow guidance, we examined the surface charge accumulation on a dielectric surface and ionization, dissociation, and recombination effects.

The thermal behavior of power modules is an important criterion for the design of cooling systems and optimum thermal structure of these modules. An important consideration for high power and high frequency design is the spacing between semiconductor devices, substrate structure and influence of the boundary condition in the case. This study focuses on the thermal behavior of hybrid power modules to establish a simplified method that allows temperature estimation in different module components without decapsulation. This study resulted in a correction of the junction temperature values estimated from the transient thermal impedance of each component operating alone. The corrections depend on mutual thermal coupling between different chips of the hybrid structure. A new experimental technique for thermal mutual evaluation is presented. Notably, the classic analysis of thermal phenomena in these structures, which was independent of dissipated power magnitude and boundary conditions in the case, is incorrect.

Good plant-growth conditions can be achieved by means of using greenhouses. One of the main issues in greenhouse cultivation is energy savings through the development of high efficient heating and cooling system. GSHPs are one of the recommended systems to cope with this pending need. The aim of this study is to investigate the heating performance of ground source multi-heat pump system installed in a greenhouse under part load conditions. Daily average heating COP of the heat pump unit was very high by at least 7.4, because of relatively large condenser, evaporator, and mass flow rate through ground loop heat exchanger. However, the system COP, overall heating coefficient of the performance of the system with heat pump unit and GLHX, decreased drastically due to relatively large power consumption of circulating pump under part load condition. It is suggested that the technology to enhance the performance of the ground source multi-heat pump system for a greenhouse under part load conditions should be developed.
