A grease filter is used to remove grease generated from a cooking appliance in a kitchen. Since the inertial impaction is a dominant particle removal mechanism of the grease filter, the performance of the filter is greatly affected by the geometry. This numerical study has been conducted to investigate the effect of geometry on the performance of grease filters for four models having nominal flowrate of 100 m$^3$/h. Four models were designed by changing the shape of impaction surface, the length of eyelid, and the number of eyelids of the grease filter. The flow field and particle trajectories in the grease filter with a flow chamber were simulated using the commercial code of STAR-CD. The difference of air velocity and pressure distributions among four models was discussed in detail. The collection efficiency curves and the pressure drops of four models were also compared. It was found that the grease filter model with flat top surfaces shows highest performance among four models, having high particle collection efficiency and relatively low pressure drop. The cutoff diameter of this model representing 50-% collection efficiency is about 7.1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ for water droplets at 100 m$^3$/h.

A cause of noise and vibration which come from a Combustion of gas heater are a combustion roar and Combustion oscillation. A character of a combustion roar is that sound pressure is distribute with broad band frequency. otherwise, The presence of combustion oscillation caused by positive Feed Back in Combustion Chamber break out a noise and vibration. Accordingly, The method that be solved a noise and vibration is to make each natural frequency different frequency. first, in order to solve problem, we control ratio of fuel and air. that is, Keep away resonance. second, in order to changing natural frequency of Combustion Chamber, We changed the shape of Economizer.

This study reports on the development of intelligent clothing using a shape memory alloy (SMA) that forms a still air layer and provides thermal insulation depending on the environment temperature. SMA springs were prepared with Nitinol and have an original length of 6mm and a latent length of 20mm with a response temperature of $24.5^{\circ}C$. Hysteresis was evaluated at a temperature between $0^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$. An experimental outdoor jacket that was attached with 30 springs was compared with a commercial jacket in terms of the microclimate temperature, humidity, and comfort properties by human subject tests in the microclimate chamber set at $5{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$. The results showed that the microclimate temperature of SMA embedded clothing system from the wear trials was higher than the commercial ones during the rest period after exercise, especially on the skin side. In addition the thermal, humidity, and comfort sensations of SMA embedded clothing were better than the commercial ones.

To develop a technique of theoretical alpha track density calculation for comparison with measured track density, an electrostatic ion spectrometer was specially designed and fabricated. The mobility spectrum of first radon daughter(Po-218) in the range of $0.07{\sim}5.0cm^2/V\;s$ from the radon chamber was measured using-the electrostatic ion spectrometer. Measurement was taken in a radon chamber operated using dry particle free air passed through silica gel, activated charcoal and molecular sieve filters. The mobility of a new-born Po-218 ion measured by the electrostatic ion spectrometer was determined to be $1.92cm^2/V\;s$. A comparison of the theoretical and measured alpha track densities was completed and uncertainties concerning the shape of the spectrum were analyzed. It was found that the discrepancies in track densities are primarily Que to the neglect of wall loss of ions in the theoretical track density calculation.

In this research, numerical analysis was carried out on novel and existing fins, adjusted in terms of factors such as length, spacing, and angle, of a high-temperature heat exchanger for a 1 kW class Stirling engine, designed as a prime mover for a domestic cogeneration system. The performance improvement as a result of shape optimization was confirmed with numerical analysis by including the air preheater, which was not considered during optimization. However, a negative heat flux was observed in the cylinder head portion. This phenomenon was clarified by analyzing the exhaust gas and wall surface temperature of the combustion chamber. Furthermore, assuming an ideal cycle, the effects of heat transfer enhancement on the thermodynamic cycle and system performance were predicted.

A high energy ignition system is essential for lean burn or high EGR gasoline engine, which is getting more and more interest to improve fuel economy. The high energy ignition systems comprise plasma jet, laser beam, corona discharge and so on. In this study, a high energy ignition system using corona discharge is developed and tested in a constant volume combustion chamber. The developed system shows extension of lean limit of propane-air mixture and enhencement of combustion speed. Various shape of corona discharge plugs are also tested and compared in this study.

This paper is a study on the design of the solar lamp bank which is a very important part of the solar simulator with the commercial metal halide lamps and infrared lamps. Lamp Bank is designed by the lamp bank design program based on point light source theory. The reliability of the program for lamp bank design is verified through irradiance variation experiments of a kind of lamp according to horizontal distance. Solar lamp bank facilitates heat distribution and satisfies the irradiance in the three wave length which test guidelines require. The shape of the ceiling board next to the lamp bank to promote the lamp cooling efficiency and to reduce temperature deviation and air velocity deviation in the chamber is so creative. The ceiling board of partial closed type is the best among several types.

Tin oxide nanoparticles (n-SnO and $n-SnO_2$) were synthesized by the inert gas condensation (IGC) method under dynamic gas flow of oxygen and argon at various conditions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) method were used to analysis the size, shape and crystal structure of the produced powders. The synthesized particles were mostly amorphous and their size increased with increasing the partial pressure of oxygen in the processing chamber. The particles also became broader in size when higher oxygen pressures were applied. Low temperature annealing at $320^{\circ}C$ in air resulted to crystallization of the amorphous n-SnO particles to $SnO_2$.

Besides the fuel spray behavior and combustion chamber shape. an air motion has a key role on exhaust gas emission and performance in a DI diesel engine. A swirl ratio represents the ratio of the intake swirl velocity to the engine speed. The main purpose in this work is to investigate the effects of the swirl ratio to the combustion characteristics. A shroud valve machined to change the swirl ratio. Test was carry out by changing the engine speed, nozzle diameter and swirl ratio in a single cylinder diesel engine. From this study, the optimized combustion was found at swirl ratio 2.7. And it was also found that the increasing the maximum cylinder pressure with an increasing swirl ratio lead to decrease a smoke and to increase NOx.

This study aims to investigate injection rate and microscopic spray characteristics of diesel fuel containing fine air bubble (FBD). fine bubble was generated by cavitation theory using bubble generator. Fuel spray was injected into constant volume chamber and visualized by high speed camera. The injection rate data was acquired with bosch tube method. Injection rate of finebubble diesel was very similar with that of diesel. It showed slightly faster injection start by 5 ㎲ attributed to the low viscosity characteristics. In microscopic spray visualization, fine bubble diesel spray showed unsymmetric spray shape compared with diesel spray. It also showed very vigorous spray atomization performance during initial spray development. Improved atomization was also attributed to the low viscosity and surface tension of finebubble diesel fuel.
