  • The compressors in the air conditioner have the role of the pressurization and circulation of the refrigerant. The hermetic reciprocating compressors driven by rotary motor have been used for the air conditioner. The linear compressor has very simple structure and enhancement in the efficiency in comparison to that of conventional reciprocating compressor. The linear compressors are widely used for the small cryogenic refrigerator (below 1 kW), such as the Stirling refrigerator and pulse tube refrigerator. In the cryogenic application, the pressure ratio of the linear compressor is below 1.5, but the linear compressor for the air conditioner should overcome the high pressure ratio and the large pressure difference between the each sides of the piston. The resonance characteristics of the linear compressor has the significant impacts on the power consumption. To minimize the power consumption, the linear compressor should be operated at the resonance point. In the resonance characteristics, the role of the mechanical and gas spring should be considered. In present study, the cycle of the analysis of the vapor compression refrigeration cycle with the different refrigerants (R134a, R4l0a, R600a) and the designs of the linear compressor are performed. The effects of the stiffness of the mechanical spring on the electromagnetic forces would be discussed. Finally, the results show the design specification of the linear compressor for the air conditioner.

  • The effect of pressure on the catalytic properties of glutamate racemase from Aquifex pyrophilus, an extremophilic bacterium, was investigated. The activation volume for the overall reaction $({\Delta}V^{\neq})$ and catalysis $({{Delta}V_{cat}}^{\neq})$ was -96.97 ml/mol and 4.97 ml/mol, respectively, while the reaction volume for the substrate binding (${\Delta}V_{K_m^-1}$) was -101.94 ml/mol. The large negative ${\Delta}V^{\neq}$ for the overall reaction indicated that the pressurization of glutamate racemase resulted in enhanced catalytic efficiencies. In addition, this value was also due to the large negative ${Delta}V_{K_m^-1}$ for the substrate binding. The negative value of ${Delta}V_{K_m^-1}$ implied that the conformational changes in the enzyme molecule occurred during the substrate binding process, thereby increasing the degree of hydration. The small value of ${{Delta}V_{cat}}^{\neq}$suggested that the pressure did not affect the glutamate racemase catalysis after the substrate binding.

  • To measure the dimensional stability of three softwoods by vacuum pressurization of water soluble melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resin impregnation process, properties of resin treated compressed woods (compregs) were measured after impregnating the water soluble MF resin into three coniferous wood species for different impregnation times and resin concentrations. As the resin concentration was higher and impregnation time was longer, coefficients of volumetric shrinkage and anti-volumetric swelling efficiency increased, but coefficients of volumetric swelling, anti-volumetric swelling efficiency and absorption decreased. Also, weight percent gain increased remarkably as the resin concentration was high, but there was no uniform relationship with impregnation time.

  • We measured signals at the "Guan" region of a radially arterial pulse using the prototype of a clamping pulsimeter equipped with a Hall effect device, which is passed signals through the voltage detecting hard ware system. The important four different measuring times of the period, systolic, reflective, and notch peaks for a temporally pulse signal are obtained and compared each other from the analysis for an arbitrary pulse wave of one position of small size permanent magnet. It is possible to measure the reproducible pulse rate and blood pressure by using the cuffless clip type pulsimeter without an unpleasant oppressive feeling due to the use of pressurization.

  • A hybrid sounding rocket carrying about 10kg payload reaching up to 15km altitude has been designed. The commercial seamless aluminium tube and liquid ${N_2}O$ without pressurization devices were chosen as rocket motor case and oxidizer supply system respectively. A hybrid rocket engine performing required propulsion impulse is designed with time dependent internal ballistic scheme. Engine performance, aerodynamic characteristics, and trajectory were predicted by a integral technique of internal ballistics and external ballistics. The design results were evaluated by comparison with previous experimental data, technical reports, and literatures.

  • One of the cold start problems of a FCV is the freezing of the water in the water tank when a FCV is not in operation and the surrounding temperature drops below $0^{\circ}C$. The ice in the tank should be melted as quickly as possible for a satisfactory operation of fuel cell vehicles. In this study, the melting process for the constant heat fluxes of the plate heaters was numerically calculated in the 2-D model of the tank and plate heaters. The enthalpy method and FVM code was used for this analysis. The changes of the temperature with heat fluxes and the heat transfer area could be investigated. The energy balance error was found to increase with the heat flux. From this numerical analysis, the proper heat flux value and some important design factors relating local overheating and pressurization of the water tank could be examined.

  • Various researches are being conducted to reduce greenhouse gases generated by the consumption of traditional energy resources. This study was conducted to numerically analyze the combustion characteristics and N-S reaction behavior with respect to the H2 content of syngas composed of CO and H2 in pressurized air combustion. A non-premixed opposed flow flame model was applied a modified detailed mechanism with S-chemistry was developed based on GRI 3.0 to simulate the syngas reaction. As the hydrogen content increased, the flame thickness increased due to the fast reactivity of hydrogen. In the rich region, NO and SO2 were reduced by reaction with H radical and H bonding of NO was suppressed by the formation of HOSO.

  • Green vehicles include electric vehicles, natural gas vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles (FCVs). In FCVs, pressure vessels have cylinder valves to control hydrogen flow. These valves should be of high quality in terms of safety because hydrogen is stored at ultra-high pressure in pressure vessels. Hence, safety evaluation of these valves is necessary to secure the safety of the FCV. A structural analysis of the cylinder valve was conducted in this study by using a commercial finite element analysis code. The results showed that the safety factor of valve component ranged 1.06-186.44. After categorizing, the stress components at critical points of the cylinder valve parts were evaluated using the corresponding allowable design criteria in the ASME code. The pressurization cycle test was performed as per the regulation to evaluate the safety of the valve.
