Energy balance equations Were developed to describe the heat transfer mechanisms in a double layer plastic greenhouse with a water curtain system. Heat transfer variables were determined by using various temperature data measured in a conventional prototype semicircular cross-section greenhouse over a range of water temperatures and water flow rates. The heat transfer coefficient between flowing water and greenhouse air was independent of water flow rates. But the heat transfer coefficient between water surface and the stagnant air space within the double plastic layer was dependent on water flow rates. Substituting the heat transfer coefficients, determined from the energy balance equations in the heat transfer equations, demonstrated various relationships among ambient air temperature, greenhouse air temperature, water temperature, and water flow rates. The heating benefits were linearly related to not only the inside and outside air temperatures but also to the water temperature. The energy conservation effects of the water curtain system were found even initial water temperatures were considerably lower than the greenhouse setting temperatures. Sensitivity analysis for heat transfer coefficients demonstrated that the heat transfer coefficient between greenhouse air and the stagnant air within the plastic layers was the most significant coefficient in the estimation of heating effects.

A mass balance of process was calculated by using the analysis of basic unit and environmental assessment of all the processes of Busan fashion color industry cooperative that operates a combined heat and power plant and a bio treatment plant. The mass balance for the combined heat and power plant was done, based on boiler and water treatment processes while each unit reactor was used for the bio treatment plant. From the results above, a resource recycle network, a treatment flowchart for food waste water/wastewater treatment and a carbon reduction program were established.

This paper Is for development of cooling module in order to maintain heat and water balance in fuel cell vehicle. Thermal management system for fuel cell is disadvantage because the temperature of coolant is lower than that of ICE and heat duty of radiator is higher. By CFD simulation, cool ing module was developed for water balance of system. Hot chamber test and hot area/high altitude test on cool ing module was completed.

Recovered heat has been considered as a renewable energy in Europe since 2008 because its great effect on energy saving and carbon decreasing in plant process. Energy saving and decreasing green gas are critical issue today, so various technologies to save energy and decrease carbon dioxide in plant process have been applied to many industrial area. In this paper, the feasibility of condenser heat recovery by heat pump in power plant for district heating and fuel line preheating were reviewed by verifying energy (heat) balance and mass balance of power plant model. Some ways to compose proper system to recover heat of condenser are suggested and their possibilities are also reviewed. Limitations on heat recovery in power plant are also reviewed. The results are verified by calculating input/output energy based on actual performance test data of Taean Thermal Power Plant in Korea. There is noticeable improvement of plant performance in some cases which demand low temperature (<100 C) heat like distrcit heating, fuel line heating, and so forth.

A heat transfer model of the intake valve in a spark ignition engine is presented, which is calibrated with a number of the valve temperature profiles measured during engine warm-up for the gaseous fuel(propane). The valve is divided into four identical elements for which the assumption of lumped thermal mass is applied. The calibration is made so that the difference between the measued and simulated valve temperatures becomes minimal. Then the model is applied to the cases of the liquid fuel(indolene) to estimate the amount of the liquid fuel vaporized from the intake valve by assuming that fuel evaporation accounts for the deficit of the heat balance budget. The results of the model show quantitative contribution of each heat transfer source to the heat balance. The behavior of the calculated mass fraction of the fuel vaporized from the intake valve explains how the liquid fuel evaporate during engine warm-up. The mass fraction at warmed-up condition is closely related with the fraction directly targeted on the valve back by the fuel spray geometry.

An experiment was conducted to study the effects of nicarbazin supplementation (125 ppm) on the water balance, blood acid-base balance, and rectal temperature of 16 SCWL adult roosters in normal($21^{\circ}C$) and hot(35~$36^{\circ}C$) temperatures. There were 4 d of preliminary period, followed by 2 d of sampling and data collection period for each temperature treatment. The amounts of DM intake and excretion were not affected by heat stress but by rucarbazln supplementation. The DM metabolizability of diets, however, was decreased by nicarbazin. The amounts of water intake and evaporative water loss were increased in heat stressed birds. Nicarbazin increased further the amounts of water intake and evaporative water loss in hot temperature. Nicarbazin also decreased the blood p$CO_2$ and increased blood pH of heat stressed birds. The rectal temperature of the bird was increased in hot temperature, and the nicarbazin supplementation worsened this effect. Results indicate that heat stress raises the body temperature of the chicken. In order to suppress the rise of body temperature, the birds enhance the evaporative water loss through panting. The nicarbazin supplementation to heat stressed birds, however, increases the body temperature to such an extent that panting alone may not be able to return the body temperature back to normal.

This study aims to find out the effect of ingestion of 3 mg·kg^-1 caffeine on fluid-electrolyte balance and Tty change during exercise under heat environment of 30~32℃ (40-50% humidity). Five trained males who routinely trained for approximately 60 min·d^-1, 3-6 d·wk^-1 (age; 28.20±3.56yrs, height; 174.56±5.46 cm, body mass; 76.13±9.02 kg, body fat(%); 14.24±3.99, VO₂max; 54.00±4.30 mL·kg^-1·min^-1, exercise career; 4.20±1.95yrs) performed 40min of treadmill running in heat chamber. The study was a double-blind, randomized, crossover design. Body mass change following exercise was higher for the PLAC (Placebo) and CAFF (Caffeine) in comparison to the CON (Control), there was no significant difference between the CAFF, PLAC, CON (p= .997). The U_sg not significant differences (p= .731) and Osm_urine not significant differences between the CAFF, PLAC, CON (p= .901). There also were not significant between the CAFF, PLAC, CON for [Na⁺]_urine and [K⁺]_urine (p= .928, p= .469). In the case of Tty, although the increase rate of Tty was the highest for the CAFF on exercise early, exercise the second half in comparison to the CON and PLAC, there was not significant interaction effect between the CAFF, PLAC, and CON of Tty (p= .067), In conclusion, it was confirmed that the 3 mg·kg^-1 caffeine ingestion prior to exercising in heat environment does not impart negative effect on body fluid, electrolyte balance and changes in Tty.

The effects of vitamin C and vitamin E with selenium on acid-base balance and some stress hormones were evaluated during heat stress in goats. Goats, 1.5 years of age, were divided into control, heat stress and antioxidant treatment groups 1, 2 and 3. Except for the control, all groups were exposed to a temperature of $40{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ with a relative humidity of 30% for 5 h/d for 21 days in a psychrometric chamber. Rectal temperature and respiratory rates were recorded daily post exposure. Blood samples were collected on every 3rd day for estimation of plasma vitamins C and E, total antioxidant activity and hormones, and separate blood samples were taken to estimate acid-base status. The rectal temperature and respiratory rates were increased (p<0.05) in the heat stress group only. Except for pH and $pO_2$, which were increased significantly (p<0.05) other parameters of acid-base balance such as $pCO_2$, $HCO_3^-$, $TCO_2$, BEb, BEcef, PCV and Hb were significantly decreased (p<0.05) in the heat stress group. An improvement in acid-base status was noted in the antioxidant supplemented groups. Prolactin and cortisol levels were significantly (p<0.05) higher and free T3 and T4 levels were significantly (p<0.05) lower in the heat stress group. Levels of prolactin and cortisol were decreased and free T3 and T4 were increased in antioxidant treatment groups. Different levels of antioxidant supplementation resulted in similar protection against heat stress.
