A heat exchanger analysis is performed to investigate the heating characteristics of cryogenic nitrogen by ambient air for the purpose of cryogenic automotive propulsion. The heat exchanger is a concentric triple-passage for supercritical nitrogen, and the radial fins are attached on the outermost tube for the crossflow of ambient air. The temperature distribution is calculated for the nitrogen along the passage, including the real gas properties of nitrogen, the fluid convections and the conductions through the tube walls and the fins. Since the wall temperature of the outer (ambient side) tube is very low in most cases, a heavy frost can be formed on the surface, affecting the heat exchange performance. By the method of the similarity between the heat and the mass transfer of moist air, the frost growth and the time-dependent effectiveness of the heat exchanger are calculated for various operating conditions. It is concluded that the frost formation can augment the heating of nitrogen during the initial period because of the latent heat, then gradually degrades the heat exchange because of the increased thermal resistance. Practical design issues are discussed for the flow rate of nitrogen, the velocity and humidity of ambient air, and the sizes of the fin.

In this study, the effects of design factors of finned-tube heat exchanger, such as fin spacing and fin array on the frost growth and heat exchanger performance are investigated under a frosting condition. The results show that the amount of frost, frost density and blockage ratio of air flow passage increase with decreasing fin spacing. Heat transfer rate increases momentarily at the initial stage of frosting and then decreases. After that heat transfer rate continues to increase again to reach a maximum value and then decreases dramatically. It is shown that the time required for heat transfer rate to reach a maximum value becomes shorter with decreasing fin spacing, and after a maximum value, heat transfer rate decreases very fast. The maximum allowable blockage ratio is introduced to determine the operation limit of a finned-tube heat exchanger operating under frosting condition and is obtained as a function of fin spacing. It is also shown that heat transfer rate of heat exchanger with staggered fin array increases about 17% and the amount of pressure drop of air increases about 1~2 mmH$_{2}$O, compared with those of in-line type heat exchanger under frosting condition.

식생활의 향상 및 다양화로 신선한 제품에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있으며, 이에 따라 냉장 및 냉동식품의 저온유통 또한 점차 증가되고 있다. 현재 냉동산업에는 주로 R134a 냉매가 사용되고 있으며 GWP(Global Warming Potential)가 1300으로써 매우 높아 지구온난화에 영향을 미친다. 이를 대체하기 위한 냉매로써 R1234yf 냉매가 있으며, GWP는 4로써 매우 낮다. 냉동탑차 냉장시스템에 사용되는 증발기는 저온조건에서 작동되기 때문에 서리가 형성되어 시스템의 성능을 급격히 감소시킨다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 R134a와 R1234yf 냉매를 작동유체로 사용한 증발기의 성능을 착상조건 하에서 다양한 운전조건으로 분석하였다. 해석결과, 서리성장 조건에서 공기측 입구온도, 상대습도, 증발온도 변화에 대하여 R134a 증발기의 성능이 R1234yf 증발기보다 더욱 민감하게 나타났으며 서리의 성장 또한 R134a 증발기가 더 크게 나타났다.

A study on frost prevention of fin-tube heat exchanger is experimently performed by spreading antifreezing solution on heat exchanger surface. It is desirable that the antifreezing solution spreads completely on the surface forming thin liquid film to prevent frost nucleation and crystal growth and to reduce the thermal resistance across the liquid film. A small amount of antifreezing solution falls in drops on heat exchanger surface using two types of supplying devices, and a porous layer coating technique is adopted to enhance the wettedness of antifreezing solution on the surface. It is observed that the antifreezing solution liquid film prevents fin-tube heat exchanger from frosting, and heat transfer performance does not degrade through the frosting tests. The concentration of supplied antifreezing solution can be determined by heat transfer analysis of the first row of heat exchanger to avoid antifreezing solution freezing due to dilution by moisture absorption.

In the case of heat exchangers operating under frosting condition, the growth of frost layer causes the heat exchanger to increase the thermal resistance and pressure loss of the air flow. In this paper, a transient characteristic prediction model of the heat transfer for multi inverter heat pump with frosting on its surface was presented taking into account the change of the fin efficiency due to the growth of the frost layer. In this dynamic simulation program, which was peformed for a basic air conditioning system model, such as evaporator, condenser, compressor, linear electronic expansion valve (LEV) and bypass circuit. The theoretical model was driven from the obtained heat transfer coefficient and mass transfer coefficient, independently. And we consider heat transfer performance was only affected by a decrease of the wind flow area. The calculated results were compared with some cases of experiments for frosting conditions.

In case of heat exchangers operating under frosting condition, the thermal resistance and the air-side pressure loss increase with a growth of frost layer. In this paper, a transient characteristic prediction model of the heat transfer for a multi-inverter heat pump with frosting on its surface was presented by taking into account the change of the fin efficiency due to the growth of the frost layer. This dynamic simulation program was developed for a basic air conditioning system composed of an evaporator, a condenser, a compressor, a linear electronic expansion valve, and a bypass circuit. The theoretical model was derived from measured heat transfer and mass transfer coefficients. We also considered that the heat transfer performance was only affected by the decrease of wind flow area. The calculated results were compared with the experimental results for frosting conditions.

This research was conducted to construct a tree belt around Saemangeum reclaimed land using various planting methods and to analyze initial growth amount, to provide practical data to construct tree belt of various purposes. Tree species used in tree belt construction were Pinus thunbergii and Quercus serrata, and the main planting treatment methods used were categorized by existence of windy fence, mixed planting, and un-mixed planting. Growth amount analysis was conducted using ANOVA to compare growth amounts in different experimental groups and Duncan's multiple range test. Growth amount analysis results of tree belt by planting method showed that it is most statistically plausible to install 50% porous windy fence from the direction of wind and frost, followed by planting P. thunbergii and Q. serrata in areas that require mixed tree species tree belt around Saemangeum reclaimed land. In areas where un-mixed planting tree belt is required, it was appropriate to use P. thunbergii alone without a windy fence. Lastly, if the purpose of the tree belt is limited to rapid growth, it was most ideal to plant P. thunbergii alone (without windy fence) or install 50% porous windy fence from the direction of wind and frost, followed by planting P. thunbergii and Q. serrata. This research is based on initial growth amount of tree belt and there is a need for a long-term monitoring of tree belt growth to increase tree-planting success rate in establishing tree belt according to Saemangeum internal development.

만생종 감 '부유'의 수확시기에 따른 과실 특성을 평가하고자 수확기 마지막 한달 동안의 기상, 저온피해, 과실 생장간의 관계를 조사하였다. 11월 16일 서리피해로 총 잎의 70% 이상이 낙엽이 되었고, 일부 과실에만 경미한 동해가 나타났다. 그러나 11월 20일 저온으로 전부 낙엽이 되었고, 11월 21일 서리와 함께 기온이 $-3.3^{\circ}C$로 낮아지면서 모든 과실에서 동해 증상이 나타났다. 10월 25일(만개 후 142일)부터 11월 15일까지 과중은 일주일에 8-25g이 증가하여 250g에 이르렀지만 서리피해 후부터는 오히려 3-4g씩 감소하였다. 과피색 Hunter a 값은 기온이 높았던 11월 상순에 정체되었지만 11월 29일 마지막 수확까지 점진적으로 높아졌고, 경도는 11월 21일 저온피해 후부터 급속하게 낮아졌다. 당도는 마지막 한달 동안 $15.7-16.1^{\circ}Brix$였다. 서리와 직접적인 접촉을 피하기 위해 부직포로 피복한 가지에서는 11월 16일 저온으로 잎의 40-60% 정도가 낙엽이 되었으나 과실에 가시적인 동해 증상은 없었다. 그러나 11월 20일과 21일의 저온으로 잎은 모두 낙엽이 되고 과실에 동해 증상이 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 시기별 과실 횡경과 과중 간에는 높은 유의적 상관($R^2$ = 0.73-0.91) 관계가 있었으므로, 회귀식을 사용하여 부직포로 피복한 가지의 과실 횡경으로부터 과중을 추정할 수 있었다. 산출한 과중은 11월 15일에 240g으로 최대였고, 일일 과중 증가량은 10월 25-31일 사이에는 1.1-2.5g, 10월 31-11월 7일 사이에는 1.9-3.5g, 11월 7-11월 12일 사이에는 1.4g-1.6g 이하였다. 그러나 저온피해가 나타났던 11월 21일 이후에는 오히려 과중이 0.3-1g씩 감소하였다. 본 연구결과는 수확 적기가 과실 생장과 기후 요인간의 관계에 따라 달라질 수 있음을 나타내었다.

유라시아 이니셔티브의 일환으로 남북철도 연결사업을 실시하고 이를 통한 철도 물류망을 확보할 경우 대한민국은 또다른 경쟁력을 확보하고 이를 바탕으로 한 성장의 한 기틀이 마련될 수 있을 것이다. 남북철도 연결사업에서 철도노반분야의 가장 중요한 부분은 북한철도의 개량 또는 건설이다. 북한의 경우 지질학적으로는 대한민국과 큰 차이를 보이고 있지 않으나 특히 동절기 기후는 큰 차이를 보이고 있다. 동절기 기후에서 가장 철도 운행 안전에 피해를 주는 것은 동상이다. 동상은 선로구조물의 융기를 유발하여 철도차량의 운행안정성에 큰 위험요소로 작용한다. 하지만 대한민국은 북한에 비하여 상대적으로 온화한 기후로 인하여 극한의 조건에 대한 연구가 부족하며, 철도설계기준에도 구체적인 방안이 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 극한조건에서의 철도지하횡단구조물의 동상에 대하여 연구하였으며, 국외기준 분석 및 현장시공을 통한 철도설계기준 개정방안에 대하여 분석하였다.
