The objective of the present study is to investigate the effect of experimental parameters on the hydrodynamic characteristics in a horizontal tee-type evaporator using R-22. The experimental apparatus consisted of an unheated tee-type test section, a liquid-vapor separator, a preheated, mass flow meters, a plate heat exchanger, pump, and other measurement devices. The experimental parameters were mass flux(500 and 600kg/$m^2$s), inlet quality(0.1~0.3) and separation ratio(0.3~0.7). Absolute pressure at the inlet of the test section was 0.652 MPa. The branch-to-inlet inner diameter ratio was 0.61. Pressure gradient at the branch section was larger than that at the run section at the same separation ratio. Pressure drop per unit length increased at the run section and decreased at the branch section as the separation ratio increased. Pressure drop predicted by the separated flow model agreed with experimental data within -35 to +16%. Generally, predicted values showed similar trend with the data. Mass flow ratio of vapor refrigerant was affected by the inlet quality more than the mass flux.

Hydrogen is an eco-friendly energy source and is being actively researched in various fields around the world, including mobility and aerospace. In order to effectively utilize hydrogen energy, it should be used in a liquid state with high energy storage density, but when hydrogen is stored in a liquid state, BOG (boil-off gas) is generated due to the temperature difference with the atmosphere. This should be re-condensed when considering storage efficiency and economy. In particular, large-capacity liquid hydrogen storage tank is required a gaseous helium circulation cooling system that cools by circulating cryogenic refrigerant due to the increase in heat intrusion from external air as the heat transfer area increases and the wide distribution of the gas layer inside the tank. In order to effectively apply the system, thermo-hydraulic analysis through process analysis is required. In this study, the condenser design and system characteristics of a gaseous helium circulation cooling system for BOG recondensation of a liquefied hydrogen storage tank were compared.

Gas foil thrust bearings (GFTBs) support axial loads in oil-free, high speed rotating machinery using air or gas as a lubricant. Due to the inherent low viscosity of the lubricant, GFTBs often have super-laminar flows in the film region at operating conditions with high Reynolds numbers. This paper develops a mathematical model of a GFTB with turbulent flows and validates the model predictions against those from the literature. The pressure distribution, film thickness distribution, load carrying capacity, and power loss are predicted for both laminar and turbulent flow models and compared with each other. Predictions for an air lubricant show that the GFTB has high Reynolds numbers at the leading edge where the film thickness is large and relatively low Reynolds numbers at the trailing edge. The predicted load capacity and power loss for the turbulent flow model show little difference from those for the laminar flow model even at the highest speed of 100 krpm, because the Reynolds numbers are smaller than the critical Reynolds number. On the other hand, refrigerant (R-134a) lubricant, which has a higher density than air, had significant differences due to high Reynolds numbers in the film region, in particular, near the leading and outer edges. The predicted load capacity and power loss for the turbulent flow model are 2.1 and 2.3 times larger, respectively, than those for the laminar flow model, thus implying that the turbulent flow greatly affects the performance of the GFTB.

Purpose: Frostbite is a hazard to people exposed to cold environments. With the progression of modern industrial development and change of leisure behavior encountering cold environments, frequent accidental exposure to frostbite injury during work and human behavior is increasing, and the predisposing factors of frostbite were greatly changed than before. The purpose of this study was to make epidemiological analysis, and to review the treatment outcomes of frostbite. Methods: From March 2010 to February 2021, this study has included 27 patients with second- to third-degree frostbite injuries in Advanced Burn Reconstruction Center, Bundang Jesaeng Hosptial. A retrospective study was made about the distribution of age, gender, predisposing factors, prevalent area, type of managements, and the length of treatment period. Results: In our institution, acute management of frostbite patients has included rewarming, anticoagulation therapy (acetylsalicylic acid), and agents to improve vascular perfusion (lipo-prostaglandin E1 [Eglandin^®]). The 25 frostbite patients with second-degree frostbite (92.6%) were successfully managed by the conservative treatment alone with a mean of 20.3 days healing time. Two patients with third-degree frostbite (7.4%) also showed good outcomes after surgical reconstruction with a mean of 59 days healing time. In our clinical experiences of third-degree frostbite, definitive surgical reconstruction should be recommended to wait for more than 4~6 weeks for identification of clear demarcation of necrotic tissue caused by frostbite. In this study, 43 frostbite injuries site in 27 frostbite patients occurred. Among them, 15 patients (55.6%) had multiple-site frostbite injury. The most common predisposing cause of frostbite was refrigerant gas accidents (44.4%), followed by outdoor activity in cold environments (40.8%), misapplying ice pack for treatment purposes (7.4%), barefoot walking on the cold ground (3.7%), and loss of consciousness in cold grounds (3.7%). The most prevalent sites of frostbite injuries revealed as the hand (58.1%), followed by the foot (32.6%), face (7.0%), and abdomen (2.3%). And in the winter season from the November to March, the incidence rate of frostbite injuries was high at 74.1%. Conclusion: This study included 27 frostbite patients with 43 frostbite sites since last decade in a single institution at the community hospital. The frostbite patients with second-degree frostbite (92.6%) were successfully healed by the conservative treatment alone with a mean of 20.3 days healing time. The most common predisposing cause of frostbite was refrigerant gas accidents (44.4%), followed by outdoor activity in cold environments, etc. The most prevalent site of frostbite injuries was the hand (58.1%). And the most prevalent seasonal incidence of frostbite was from November to March (74.1%).

The importance of processes in cryogenic environments is increasing in a way to address problems such as critical dimension (CD) narrow and bottlenecks in micro-processing. Accordingly, in this paper, we proceed with the design and analysis of Electrostatic Chuck(ESC) and Coolant in cryogenic environments, and present optimal model conditions to provide the temperature distribution analysis of ESC in these environments and the appropriate optimal design. The wafer temperature uniformity was selected as the reference model that the operating conditions of the refrigerant of the liquid nitrogen in the doubled aluminum path were excellent. Design of simulation (DOS) was carried out based on the wheel settings within the selected reference model and the classification of three mass flow and diameter case, respectively. The comparison between factors with p-value less than 0.05 indicates that the optimal design point is when five turns of coolant have a flow rate of 0.3 kg/s and a diameter of 12 mm. ANOVA determines the interactions between the above factor, indicating that mass flow is the most significant among the parameters of interests. In variable selection procedure, Case 2 was also determined to be superior through the two-Sample T-Test of the mean and variance values by dividing five coolant wheels into two (Case 1 : 2+3, Case 2: 3+2). Finally, heat transfer analysis processes such as final difference method (FDM) and heat transfer were also performed to demonstrate the feasibility and adequacy of the analysis process.

정어리, 명태 및 오징어육을 $-20^{\circ}C,\;-40^{\circ}C$및 $-80^{\circ}C$에서 동결하고 hammer mill에 의한 분쇄적성과 분쇄물의 mass colloider에 의한 마쇄 특성을 조사하였다. 정어리, 명태 및 오징어육은 $-40^{\circ}C$ 및 $-80^{\circ}C$로 동결할 경우 hammer mill에 의해 분쇄가 가능하였고 분쇄물은 mass colloider에 의해 마쇄가 가능한 것으로 나타났다. 어육별 동결분쇄물의 입도분포는 오징어, 정어리, 명태순으로 큰 입자의 비율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 한편 동결분쇄물의 입자분포는 동결온도에 따라 차이를 보여 $-40^{\circ}C$ 보다는 $-80^{\circ}C$ 동결군의 입도가 작게 나타나는 경향을 보였다. 한편 동결온도가 다른 어육의 동결분쇄입자들에 대하여 image analysis를 행한 결과, $-40^{\circ}C$ 처리구는 짓이겨진 형태를 보인 반면 $-80^{\circ}C$ 처리구는 예리하게 끊어진 형태를 보였다. 또한 어종간의 조직특성이 관찰되어 어종 및 동결온도에 의해 동결분쇄물의 입도 분포 및 물성이 다를 수 있음이 시사되었다. 동결마쇄물의 수율은 정어리 $62.5\%$, 명태 $56.9\%$, 오징어 $52.5\%$로 나타났으며 오징어를 제외한 명태 및 정어리육의 마쇄물은 특히 뼈에서 유래되는 Ca의 함량비가 $6\~8$배 높은 특성을 보이고 있었다. 또한 동결마쇄물의 품질지표의 하나인 유화능을 측정한 결과, 대조군에 비해 다소 낮게 나타났으나 어육의 가공에는 충분히 적용가능할 것으로 평가되어 hammer mill과 mass colloider를 이용한 어육의 동결마쇄기법은 향후 관련분야에 이용성이 클 것으로 생각된다.

상업용 천연가스 배급 시스템에서 천연가스의 공급압력은 압력조절밸브를 사용하여 제어하며 이때 막대한 압력에너지가 낭비된다. 이러한 폐압에너지는 터보 팽창기와 같은 터보기계를 사용하여 회수할 수 있으나 팽창과정에서 발생하는 Joule-Thompson 효과에 따라서 큰 온도강하가 발생한다. 터보 팽창기 전단 또는 후단에 보일러를 설치하여 영하의 온도를 방지할 수 있으며 또한 보일러를 대체하여 연료전지나 가스엔진의 폐열을 이용하여 천연가스를 예열할 수도 있으나 하이브리드 시스템의 구동을 위해 운영규모에 따라 일정량을 소모해야 한다. 이 연구에서는 천연가스가 가지고 있는 압력에너지를 활용하여 천연가스의 소모 없이 터보 팽창기와 연결된 히트펌프를 구동하여 천연가스를 예열하는 시스템을 제안하고 증발온도, 응축온도 및 작동유체의 변화에 따른 시스템의 열역학적 특성을 분석하였다. R717 냉매가 예상 작동범위 내에서 가장 높은 COP와 가장 낮은 압축일을 나타내 제안된 하이브리드 시스템에 적합함을 확인하였다. 보일러시스템과의 경제성 분석을 통해 천연가스를 LNG 형태로 수입하고 있는 국내의 경우 히트펌프 하이브리드 시스템이 경쟁력 있음을 확인하였다.
