Optimal control algorithms for the full storage ice cooling system were developed by using a dynamic simulation program. Control algorithms for the storage charging mode were developed for the chiller outlet temperature setpoint control and the chiller capacity control. Control algorithms for the storage discharging mode were developed for the proper mode selection, the storage-only mode control, and the storage-priority chiller-shared mode control. Two different cases of the expected outdoor air temperature profile and the expected cooling load profile were used to analyze the effectiveness of these algorithms. Simulation results show the energy savings and the satisfactory controls of the ice storage system. Therefore, control algorithms developed for this study may effectively be used for the improved control of the ice storage cooling system.

A comparative analysis was peformed on the operation cost at partial loads between ice storage systems with the two conventional control strategies, i.e., storage priority and chiller priority. The storage priority control is shown to be more economic for small cooling loads, while the chiller priority control is superior when the cooling load is as large as the design value. Based on this finding, a new control strategy is devised for an ice-storage system to minimize the operation cost at any cooling load. The new control strategy is found to be comparable to the chiller priority for large cooling loads, while it is more economic for small loads compared to the conventional control strategies. The practicality of the new control strategy is also confirmed through a performance test applying the new control strategy to an existing ice-storage system.

A comparative analysis of an ice storage system has been performed on the operation cost for the four control strategies, i.e., chiller priority and chiller downstream, chiller priority and chiller upstream, storage priority and chiller upstream, storage priority and chiller downstream. Main components of the ice storage system are an ice-on-coil storage tank and a screw compressor chiller. With the simulation program, the operation cost has been evaluated from the economics of an ice storage system. It is found that the operation cost of the ice storage system is strongly dependent on the control strategy, i.e., chiller priority or storage priority, but less affected by the arrangement method, i.e., chiller upstream or chiller downstream. In case of the maximum load day, the control strategy with chiller priority and chiller upstream is supposed to obtain the reduction of operation cost. However, it is found that the control strategy with storage priority and chiller downstream is the best economical operation for most summer seasons except the maximum load day.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of semi-dried small squid Idiosepius paradoxus treated with grapefruit Citrus paradisi seed extract (GSE) during refrigerated storage for 6 months. The moisture content and water activity decreased significantly in both control and GSE-treated groups with increasing storage time, but there was no significant difference between groups. During storage, the degree of water activity reduction was lower in the GSE-treated group than in the control. The pH change was similar in both groups during storage. The thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value of the GSE-treated group was lower than that of the control until 4 months of storage, and was subsequently higher than in the control group. The Hunter color L value did not differ significantly during storage between groups, whereas the a and b values decreased significantly (P<0.05) in both groups with increasing storage time. The hardness value of the semi-dried small squid increased with storage time, but there was no statistical difference between GSE treatment and control. There were more viable cells in the control group than the GSE-treated group after 5 months of storage. According to the sensory evaluation, neither the taste, color, odor, nor texture differed statistically during storage between groups, while overall acceptability was significantly lower in the GSE-treated group than the control after 6 months of storage.

The purpose of this paper is real time tilt servo control of the holographic data storage system. Holographic data storage device is a next generation data storage device with high storage density, high transfer rate and short access time. This device is very sensitive to a disturbance due to the enormous storage density. As to the recording material changed disc type, the media continuously vibrates as the disc rotates. When disc rotates, deviation, eccentricity and unbalance disturbance are occurred. This disturbances cause disc tilt, finally reference beam does not illuminates to correct incidence angle. Therefore real time tilt servo control is essential. In this paper, the algorithm is proposed to make real time tilt detection in angle multiplexing of the holographic data storage system with an additional servo beam and the experiments are performed.

A chiller, having a thermal storage system, can contribute to load-leveling and can reduce the cost of electricity by using electricity at night. In this study, the control experiments and simulations are conducted using both conventional and advanced methods for the building cooling system. Advanced approaches, such as the "region control method", divide the control region into five zones according to the size of the building load, and determines the cooling capacities of the chiller and thermal storage. On the other hand, the "dynamic programming method" obtains the optimal cooling capacities of the chiller and thermal storage by selecting the minimum-cost path by carrying out repetitive calculations. The "thermal storage priority method" shows an inferior chiller performance owing to the low-part load operation, whereas the chiller priority method leads to a high electric cost owing to the low utilization of thermal storage and electricity at night. It has been proven that the advanced control methods have advantages over the conventional methods in terms of electricity consumption, as well as cost-effectiveness. According to the simulation results during the winter season, the electric cost when using the dynamic programming method was 6.5% and 8.9% lower than that of the chiller priority and the thermal storage priority methods, respectively. It is therefore concluded that the cost of electricity utilizing the region control method is comparable to that of the dynamic programming method.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of $\alpha$-, ${\gamma}$-, $\delta$-Tocopherols on oxidative stability of lipid in hamburger patties during frozen storage. Hamburger patty samples were prepared with the addition of tocopherol by fat basis: control, treat 1 (control+0.02% $\alpha$-tocopherol), treat 2 (control+ 0.02% ${\gamma}$-tocopherol were cooked at 85$^{\circ}C$ for 3 minutes and the stored at -1$0^{\circ}C$ or 3$0^{\circ}C$). The fatty acids composition of the hamburger samples were analyzed during the storage periods (1, 20, 40, 60 and 80 days). there was no difference in the fatty acids composition among control and treatment groups in early storage time; however, content of unsaturated fatty acid was decreased in control group and slightly decreased or almost not changed in treatment groups as the storage period passed. No difference in the ratio of saturated fatty acid : unsaturated fatty acid (SFA : USFA) and saturated fatty acid : monounsaturated fatty acid : unsaturated fatty acid (SFA : MUFA : PUFA) between control and treatment groups at early storage time. However, SFA : USFA and SFA : MUFA : PUFA was decreased in control and slightly decreased or not changed in all treatment groups as the storage period passed.

This paper describes an optimal control scheduling of an encapsulated ice storage system with a chiller of nominal chiller 34RT(103,200kcal/hr) and an ice storage tank of 170RT-hrs(514,080 kcal). The optimization technique used in the study is dynamic programing. The objective function is summed cost during a day including charge and discharge periods. Control strategies being used commercially are chiller priority and storage priority control. In chiller priority control, the chiller is allowed to run at full capacity during the day, subject to limitations of the building load, and the ice is only melted when and if the load exceeds the chillers full capacity. In contrast to chiller priority control, the aim in storage priority control is to melt as much as ice as possible during the day time period. The system simulation calculates the operation costs for the three control strategies in the condition of the same cooling load and the same ice storage system. The simulation period is a day, assuming that initially the tank is stored fully and the cooling load is perfectly predicted for the scheduling. Also Final state of the tank is to be charged fully.

In this paper, we suggest the exact perturbation analysis(Exact_PA) technique with respect to the buffer storage in tandem queueing networks, through which the optimal buffer storage design problem is considered. The discrete event dynamic equations for the departure time of a customer are presented together with the basic properties of Full Out(FO) and No Input(NI) with respect to the buffer storage. The new perturbation rules with respect to the buffer storage are suggested, from which the exact perturbed path can be obtained. The optimal buffer storage problem is presented by introducing a performance measure consisting of the throughput and the buffer storage cost. An optimization algorithm maximizing this performance measure is derived by using the Exact_PA technique. The proposed perturbation analysis technique and the optimization algorithm are validated by numerical examples.
