It has been recognized that alternative fuels such as Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) show less polluting combustion characteristics than diesel fuel. Furthermore, engine performance is expected to be nearly equal to that of the diesel engine if direct-injection stratified-charge combustion of the LPG can be adopted in the spark-ignition engine. However, spray characteristics of LPG are quite different from those of diesel fuel. understanding the spray characteristics of LPG and evaporating processes are very important for developing efficient and low emission LPG engines optimized in fuel injection control and combustion processes. In this study, the LPG spray characteristics and evaporating processes were investigated using the Schlieren and Mie scattering optical system and single-hole injectors in a constant volume chamber. The results show that the mixture moves along the impingement wall that reproduced the piston bowl and reaches in ignition spark plug. LPG spray receives more influence of ambient pressure and temperature significantly than that of n-dodecane spray.

The cooling tower is a device for making a cooling water in the air conditioning system of building, and there are many kinds of cooling tower system for air conditioner. In this paper, we introduced the water cooling system with an enclosed tank and water ejecting system for evaporating the water in tank. The city water was used for a working fluid, and the cooling water is generated by evaporating latent heat in the tank with a $25{\sim}50mmHg$. The time to reaching this vacuum pressure was about $20{\sim}30minutes$, and cooling water was obtained the value of temperature difference ${\Delta}T=7^{\circ}C$.

The general cooling tower is a device for making a cooling water in refrigerant condensers or industrial process heat exchangers. The present cooling tower have defects with noises, complicated structure and environmental problems. In this paper, we constituted a new water cooling system by using a evaporating latent heat in an enclosed tank, and this system is consisted of an enclosed vacuum tank and water driving ejector system. Several experimental cases were carried out for improvement methods of high vacuum pressure and water cooling characteristics. The ejector performance was tested in case of water temperature variations that flows in the ejector. Based on the vacuum pressure by water driving ejector, the water cooling characteristics were investigated for the vaporized air condensing effects.

The effects of change in injection pressure on spray structure in high temperature and pressure field have been investigated. The analysis of liquid and vapor phases of injected fuel is important for emissions control of diesel engines. Therefore, this work examines the evaporating spray structure using a constant volume vessel. The injection pressure is selected as the experimental parameter, is changed from 72MPa to 112MPa by using a common rail injection system(ECD-U2). The images of liquid and vapor phase in the evaporating free diesel spray are simultaneously taken by exciplex fluorescence method. As a result, it can be confirmed that the distribution of vapor concentration is more uniform in the case of the high injection than in that of the low injection pressure.

Evaporating heat transfer coefficients of R-22 and R-134a were measured in smooth horizontal copper tubes with inner diameters of 1.77, 3.36 and 5.35mm, respectively. The experiments were conducted in a closed loop, which was driven by a magnetic gear pump. Experiments were performed for the following range of variables: mass velocity (200 to 400 kg/$m^2$.s), saturation temperature($0^{circ}C,; 5^{\circ}C$) and quality(0 to 1.0). Main results obtained are as follows: evaporating heat transfer coefficients in the small diameter tubes (ID<7mm) were observed to be strongly affected by various diameters and to differ from those in the large diameter tubers. The heat transfer coefficients of the small diameter tubes were higher than those of the large diameter tubs. And it was very difficult to apply some well-known previous predictions (Shah`s, Gungor-Winterton`s and Kandlikar`s correlation) to small diameter tubes.

In order to improve the efficiency of Cu2-xS-CdS PN junction type solar cell, a method of reducing the series resiatance is considered.

Coefficient of performance (COP) for two-stage compression system is investigated in this paper to develop seawater ice machine. The system performance is analyzed with respect to degrees of superheating and subcooling, condensing and evaporating temperatures, compression and mechanical efficiencies and mass flow ratio in an inter-cooler. The main results are summarized as follows : The COP of the system grows when the mass flow ratio, subcooling degree and evaporating temperature edge up. Contrariwise, the system performance descends in case that superheating degree and condensing temperature increase. The most effective factor for the COP is the mass flow rate ratio. Each refrigerant has different limitation for a value of the mass flow ratio in the inter-cooler because of difference in material property.

In this study, the effects of change in ambient gas viscosity on spray structure have been investigated in the high temperature and pressure field. To analyze the structure of evaporative diesel spray is important in speculation of mixture formation process. Emissions of diesel engines can be reduced by the control of the mixture formation process. Therefore, this study examines the evaporating spray structure in the constant volume chamber. The viscosity of ambient gas was selected as the experimental parameter, is changed from 21.7 mPa s to 32.1 mPa s by changing in ambient gas temperature. In order to obtain images of the liquid and vapor-phase of injected spray, exciplex fluorescence method was used in this study. The liquid and vapor-phase images were taken with 35mm still camera and CCD camera, respectively. Consequentially, it could be confirmed that the distribution of vapor concentration is more uniform in the case of the ambient gas with high viscosity than in that of the ambient gas with low viscosity.

This paper describes the cycle performance of heat-pump system using R-22 and R-290. Experiments were performed in the smooth tube with inside diameter of 10.07mm and outside diameter of 12.07 mm and grooved inner tube having 75 fins with a height of 0.25mm Condensing temperatures were held constantly between 318K and 328 K while evaporating temperatures were varied from 257 K to 288 K mass velocities from 51 to $280 kg/m^2s$. From the experiments it was known that the evaporating temperature and condensing temperature had more affected by the compressor shaft power than the tube geometries. Cooling capacity of the R-22 and R-290 had similar values in the smooth and grooved inner tubes. The coefficient of performance(COP) was calculated using the compressor shaft power volumetric refrigeration capacity compression ratio and cooling capacity. The COP of the R-290 had slightly higher values than that of R-22 The major parameters affecting the heat pump cycle performance wee the refrigerant proper-ties and operating conditions rather than the geometric shapes of the heat exchanger

This paper presents the comparison of heat transfer and pressure drop of various secondary refrigerants (single-phase and two-phase) in the indirect refrigeration system. The main results were summarized as follows: In case of heat transfer, it is useful to use secondary refrigerants in low evaporating temperature region and the heat transfer coefficient of single-phase is larger than two-phase secondary refrigerants. In case of pressure drop, it is useful to use secondary refrigerants in high evaporating temperature region and the pressure drop of two-phase is smaller than single-phase secondary refrigerant. Also, $CO_2$ is the best useful because pressure drop of $CO_2$ among the secondary refrigerants is the smallest.
