  • Fermented materials with enterobacteria isolated from fusiform fish, have strong anti-angiogenesis effect and anti-cell adhesion effect. PLM-f74 got from 74th fraction of size exclusion chromatography from fermented material, showed strong anti-cell adhesion effect between HUVECs and U937 monocytic cell. Adhesion of U937 cell to HUVEC stimulated with IL-1b was clearly inhibited by PLM-f74 in a dose-dependent manner by 12.1, 21.2, 50.9, and 78.2%, when U937 cells treated with each of the PLM-f74 and stimulated with PMA (100 mg/L) was added onto untreated and unstimulated HUVECs, adhesion was observed by 15.8, 31.9, 70.8, and 102%, when both cell types were pretreated with PLM-f74, the adhesion was prominently decreased by 83.7, 99.2, 110, and 120.8%, with 0.74, 3.7, 7.4, and 18.5ug/mL of PLM-f74, respectively. PLM-f74, also, reduced IL-1-stimulated HUVEC expression of adhesion molecules, VCAM-1, ICAM-1, and E-selectin dose-dependently by ELISA method.

  • The effect of nozzle characterristics on the mist-cooling heat transfer was investigated under the various flow conditions. Two different types of twin fluid nozzle were used, one is a $90^{\circ}$ angle tip nozzle with needle and the other is a $90^{\circ}$ angle tip non-needle nozzle. The cooling rate from the heated surface was measured and obtained the boiling curve as a function of surface temperature. An immersion sampling was employed for the measurement of droplet size of the spray. As a result of this experiment, the liquid sheet type nozzle shows better atomization when the mass ratio Mr>2.0, and collects more liquid droplets on the heated surface that results in better cooling effect. It was found that the maximum heat flux and heat transfer coefficient increased with increase in the volumetric flow rate, whereas the maximum heat flux decreased with increase in spray distance. The cooling effect depends upon the amount of collected droplet and droplet size, but it strongly depends upon the amount of collected droplet.

  • Horizontal air-jet effect has been utilized in some air conditioning systems in order to control the contaminated air indoor. In the present study, the flow and heat transfer of the contaminated air from a range hood system has been investigated with or without horizontal air-jet effect when the hood fan is on or off. For the present numerical experiment, PAT Flow code has been used. From the present numerical simulations, it has been shown that the air jet of a range hood generates coanda effect confining the contaminated air in a certain region. Furthermore, the qualitative relation between the flow rate of the capture air jet and the distribution pattern of the contamination has been discussed.

  • Double pane window system, in which an air layer with a finite width is filled between glasses, is used in order to increase the insulation efficiency. In the present study, a conjugate heat transfer problem of a double pane window system has been studied numerically in order to investigate the effect of an air layer on the heat transmittance of the double pane window system using a finite element method based on P2P1 basis function. In this study on the conjugate heat transfer of a double pane window system, numerically predicted Nusselt numbers with or without conjugate heat transfer effect have been compared with an available existing empirical formula. It has been found that a Nusselt number from an existing formula for an enclosed space is different from that obtained from the present conjugate heat transfer analysis mainly due to the effects of a very high aspect ratio and conjugate heat transfer mechanism. Furthermore, it has been shown that the numerically estimated optimal air thickness of the double pane window system with conjugate heat transfer effect is a little bit longer than that obtained without considering conjugate heat transfer effect.

  • The objective of the present study is to study the Soret effect of both nanoparticles and solute on the convective instabilities in binary nanofluids. A new stability criterion is obtained based on the linear stability theory. The results show that the Soret effect of solute(${\psi}_{bf}$) makes the binary nanofluids unstable significantly and the convective motion in a binary nanofluid sets in easily as the ratio of Soret coefficient of nanofluid to that of binary basefluid ${\delta}_4$ increases for ${\delta}_4$ > -1. It is also found that as an increase of the volume fraction of nanoparticles, nanofluid becomes stable but at a separation ratio of ${\psi}=-0.3$ the state of fluid changes from stable to unstable.

  • The stack effect of a new type condenser installed in a high-rise apartment building was studied numerically A sirocco fan is introduced to the new type condenser instead of an axial flow In. The new type condenser intakes the cold air through the lower inlet and exhausts the hot air through the upper outlet. The effects of the building height and frontal wind on the performance of an air-conditioner were analyzed. The performance of an air-conditioner was evaluated by using COP (coefficient of performance) and CGPI (condenser group performance indicator). the hot air was exhausted by the new type condenser at an angle of 50$^{\circ}$ from the outer wall of the building. If there was no draft, the new type condenser installed in the high-rise apartment building had a good performance and its performance on each floor is not influenced by the stack effect. It is shown that the efficiency of the air-conditioner installed in several floors below the top floor decreased when the frontal wind velocity was greater than 8 m/s.

  • Acoustic resonance characteristics were analyzed and their effect on the refrigerating capability were experimentally verified on a fabricated Hofler-type thermoacoustic refrigerating system. Factors governing the overall resonance are the resonator composed of a cavity and two pipes, the loudspeaker driving the resonator, and rear side impedance characteristics of speaker housing. All these are coupled with electric constants of the speaker to exhibit electric resonance. Also the 'wall-effect' within the resonator causes attenuation to reduce the sharpness of the resonance. Analysis and experiments showed housing and the wall-effect of the resonator reduce the sharpness of resonance. Maintaining the accuracy of the resonance is, therefore, very important for efficient refrigeration.

  • The three-dimensional numerical analysis has been carried out to figure out the effect of the thermoelectric element thickness on the thermal performance of the thermo-electric micro-cooler. The small-size and column-type thermoelectric cooler is considered. It is known that tellurium compounds currently have the highest cooling performance around the room temperature. Thus, in the present study, $Bi_{2}Te_{3}$ and $Sb_{2}Te_{3}$ are selected as the n- and p-type thermoelectric materials, respectively. The thermoelectric leg considered is less than $20{\mu}m$ thick. The thickness of the leg may affect the thermal and electrical transport through the interfaces between the leg and metal conductors. The effect of the thermoelectric element thickness on the thermal performance of the cooler has been investigated with parameters such as the temperature difference, the current, and the cooling power.

  • The evaporating heat transfer experiments with refrigerant HCFC 22 are performed for performance evaluation using 4 and 6 kinds of microfin tubes with outer diameter of 9.52mm and 7.0mm, respectively. Used microfin tubes have different shape and number of fins with each other, The experimental results are represented with effects of quality, mass flux and EPR. The evaporating heat transfer characteristics are represented by the existence of not only heat transfer area and turbulence promotion effect but also additional other enhancement mechanism, which are the overflow of the refrigerant over the microfin and microfin arrangement. Microfin tubes having a shape which can give much overflow over the microfin show large evaporating heat transfer coefficients. The effect of refrigerant overflow is much severe in evaporation than condensation. The effect of microfin arrangement is related to overflow effect of the refrigerant over the microfin.

  • The row-by-row heat transfer characteristics of fin-and-tube heat exchangers were experimentally investigated. Three wavy fin samples having different rows (one, two and three) and one plain fin sample (three row) were tested for $600{\leq}Re_{D}{\leq}4,000$. The heat transfer data were obtained for individual rows, and the corresponding heat transfer coefficients were reduced from the data. Results showed that the heat transfer coefficients were strongly dependent on the tube row. The heat transfer coefficient decreased as the tube row increased. However, the row effect was different depending on the fin shape. For the wavy fin, the row effect significantly decreased as the Reynolds number increased, yielding approximately the same heat transfer coefficients at $Re_{D}{\approx}2,500$. For the plain fin, however, the row effect lasted for the whole Reynolds number range. The increased mixing of bulk flow by wavy channels appears to induce high heat transfer coefficient (accordingly diminishing row effect) at downstream rows. The heat transfer coefficients of individual rows were higher for heat exchangers having larger tube rows.
