  • PLC and its expansion module, electric ball valve and cooling pipe, electric heating steel plate and various components of the system, which is used to control test and process data. By automatically adjusting the opening of the valve, the system makes the top temperature and cooling speed develop along the ideal temperature diachronic curve. Moreover, the system enables the temperature difference between inside and surface of test block limited in a given range by automatically controlling the surface board heating. The method of physical simulation test by sandbox with built-in cooling water pipe and heating rod is adopted. On the premise of a given standard value, the operation of the system is checked under different working conditions. Further, an extension of this system is proposed, which enables its application to obtain some thermal parameters when cooperating with numerical simulation.

  • This study aims at developing an artificial neural network(ANN)-based predictive and adaptive temperature control method to control the openings at internal and external skins, and heating systems used in a building with double skin envelope. Based on the predicted indoor temperature, the control logic determined opening conditions of air inlets and outlets, and the operation of the heating systems. The optimization process of the initial ANN model was conducted to determine the optimal structure and learning methods followed by the performance tests by the comparison with the actual data measured from the existing double skin envelope. The analysis proved the prediction accuracy and the adaptability of the ANN model in terms of Root Mean Square and Mean Square Errors. The analysis results implied that the proposed ANN-based temperature control logic had potentials to be applied for the temperature control in the double skin envelope buildings.

  • A heating flow discharged from a 4-way ceiling type indoor unit has been investigated using a PIV(particle image velocimetry) system For the PIV measurements, an experimental model of 1/10 scale with a transparent room was devised by satisfying the Archimedes number, which is generally used in case that the forced convection has the similar magnitude as the natural convection. To optimize the heating flow, several vane angles and vane control algorithms of cross and right angle controls were considered. Regarding the vane angle, the experimental results show that it should be less than $30^{\circ}$ to avoid re-suction flows which decrease the performance of the air-conditioner. At the vane angle of $30^{\circ}$, applying open/close control gives nae to more uniform distribution of the heating flow than without control. Especially, the cross-control seems to be satisfactory for the thermal comfort.

  • A preliminary performance test of a 30RT 2-stage screw heat pump was carried out in order to develop a high performance large-scale unutilized energy source heat pump system, which will be used for district heating and cooling. In this study, two issues of the system operating control were investigated. The first issue is the mode switching control from 1-stage to 2-stage. A stable 2-stage heating operation is guaranteed, only if the load-side water inlet temperature is over a certain value, where the 1-stage heating operation should be done first from a cold start. The second issue is oil level control. An oil shortage problem in the low stage compressor, which depends on the degree of suction superheat, was solved by a proper oil level control scheme.

  • As automotive diesel engines adopt the direct injection method for a lower level of the exhaust emission and a higher fuel efficiency, the maximum temperature of engine coolant decreases. Consequently, the total available heat source from the engine coolant decreases over 35%. However, the heating source of air-conditioning system in automobiles depends on the hot engine coolant completely, so that it is nearly impossible to control air conditioning in heating season. Therefore, the present study has been carried out to develop the air conditioning system for the high efficient heat pump type using the HFC-134a. Especially, the air conditioning system of heating has been developed at a beginning stage, when it has low heat source from small and medium sized diesel recreation vehicles. To develop a control logic system for air conditioning system which is a heat pump type with a heat recovery exchanger, its cycle characteristics has been investigated according to the opening of LEV at a bench system.

  • In this study, to improve the indoor thermal environment of the radiant floor heating system, a study was conducted on the temperature change characteristics and energy consumption according to the change of the indoor air set temperature, the supply hot water temperature and the outdoor temperature. As for the control method, the on/off control and the thermal difference proportional control method proposed through previous studies were applied. In addition, in consideration of field applicability, numerical analysis was performed for the case where the indoor air temperature sensor was affected by the wall temperature. As a result, it was found that the temperature difference proportional control method is more effective for thermal comfort and energy saving than on/off control.

  • This study evaluated the effects of thermal processing combined with high pressure on the properties of cooked pork. Pressurization followed by heating (PFH), heating followed by pressurization (HFP) and heating under pressurization (HUP) treatments were compared to a heated only control. Cooked meat without simultaneous pressurization showed little or no decrease in water binding properties relative to the control, regardless of the sequence of pressurization and heating. However, HUP treated pork had significantly higher water binding properties than the control (p<0.05). The pH values of all treatments were not significantly different with the exception of HUP at 300 MPa. The HUP treated pork showed the best tenderizing effects among all the treatments tested and the effect was more significant at increased pressure levels (p<0.05). In addition, increasing pressure levels significantly increased the L-values of pork (p<0.05). PFH and HFP treated pork had significantly lower a-values (p<0.05), while no significant differences were observed in HUP. HUP treated pork had the lowest b-values at 100 MPa. however, the differences were not significant at increasing pressure levels. These results indicate that heating under pressure is the best cooking condition for improving the quality characteristics of pork without adversely affecting its appearance.

  • In situ TEM heating experiments utilizing kaolinite powder samples result in the following facts. (1) The water recirculation system adopted in the Gatan's heating holder is required to prevent specimen drift above $500^{\circ}C$. (2) Since the degree of phase changes depends on the thickness of powders below $600^{\circ}C$, examinations of both thin and thick specimens are required. (3) Sample preparation using Mo-grids is required for TEM heating experiments above $900^{\circ}C$. At these temperature ranges the effect of heating rate and holding time on the phase transition process increases drastically, so that a programmed temperature control is required. (4) TEM heating experiments of the embedded powders by epoxy for the cross-sectional view was limited due to the severe epoxy movement during heating above $300^{\circ}C$. Better methods of sample preparation are required to overcome this problem.
