The effect of mold rotation on the transport process and resultant macrosegregation pattern during solidification of an Al-Cu alloy contained in a vertical axisymmetric annular mold cooled from the inner wall is numerically investigated. The mold initially at rest starts to rotate at a prescribed angular velocity simultaneously with the beginning of cooling. Computed results for a representative case show that the mold rotation essentially suppresses the development of both thermal and solutal convections in the melt, creating distinct characteristics such as the liquidus front, flow pattern and temperature distribution from those for the stationary mold. Thermal convection which develops at the early stages of cooling is soon extinguished by the rotating flow induced during spin-up, and thus does not effectively remove the initial superheat from the melt. On the other hand, solutal convection, though it weakens considerably and is confined within the mushy zone, still predominates over the solute redistribution process. With increasing the angular velocity, the solute transport in the axial direction is enhanced, whereas that in the radial direction is reduced. The final macrosegregation formed in the mold rotating at moderate angular velocities appears to be favorable in comparison with the stationary casting, in that not only relatively homogenized composition is achieved, but also a severely positive-segregated channel is restrained.

The applications of multi air-conditioners into multiplex and high-rise buildings have been increased by replacing central air-conditioning systems. The pipe length and altitude difference between the indoor and outdoor units can be increased based on installation conditions, which may increase the possibility of flash gas generation at the expansion device inlet. The flash gas generation causes rapid reduction of refrigerant flow rate passing through the expansion device, yielding lower system efficiency. Accumulator heat exchangers have been widely used in multi air-conditioners in order to minimize flash gas generation and obtain system reliability. However, the studies on the heat transfer characteristics and pressure drops of accumulator heat exchangers are very limited in open literature. In this study, the heat transfer rates and pressure drops of accumulator heat exchangers were measured with refrigerant flow rate and operating conditions by using R-22. The heat transfer rate increased with the increase of refrigerant flow rate, while subcooling decreased. The heat transfer rate enhanced with the reduction of inlet superheat and subcooling due to the increased temperature difference between the accumulator and inner heat exchanger.

이산화탄소 냉매 시스템용 내부 열교환기의 성능을 조사하기 위하여 4종류의 내부 열교환기를 사용하여 냉방운전조건에서 실험을 수행하였다. 내부 열교환기의 길이, 관 개수, 운전조건, 형상 변화에 대한 영향이 연구되었다. 내부 열교환기 길이가 증가할수록 능력과 효율은 향상되었다. 압력강하는 고압측보다 저압측에서 더 크게 나타났다. 가스쿨러의 온도가 높아질수록 능력과 효율은 선형적으로 증가하였으며, 증발기의 운전조건은 과열도보다는 이상영역을 설정하면 효율증대 효과 측면에서 유리하였다. 마이크로 채널의 경우가 튜브보다 능력과 효율이 크게 우수하였지만 압력강하 측면에서는 크게 불리하였다.

A preliminary performance test of a 30RT 2-stage screw heat pump was carried out in order to develop a high performance large-scale unutilized energy source heat pump, which will be used in district heating and cooling. Two issues on the system control were investigated in this study, A stable 2-stage heating operation is guaranteed only if the load-side water inlet temperature is over a certain value, to where the 1-stage heating operation should be done first from a cold start. An oil shortage problem in low stage compressor, which depends on the degree of suction superheat, was solved by the proper oil level control scheme.

인버터형 가변속 압축기를 사용한 냉각기를 최적으로 제어하기 위한 선행 연구이며, 외기온도를 변화 시켰을 경우 압축기의 회전수 변화와 전자팽창밸브의 개도 변화가 전체 시스템에 미치는 영향에 대해 실험적으로 규명하였다. 외기온도 $35^{\circ}C$와 외기온도 $30^{\circ}C$의 30Hz에서는 제어 시 피해야할 영역으로 판단됨을 확인할 수 있었으며, 압축기 회전수 제어로 인한 용량 제어범위는 외기온도 $35^{\circ}C$에서의 약 43~100%, 외기온도 $25^{\circ}C$에서는 46~100%, 외기온도 $10^{\circ}C$에서는 48~100%로 외기온도가 낮아질수록 용량제어범위는 작아짐을 알 수 있었다.

The previous study was conducted to develop an air source multi heat pump system that could be operated with the solar collector and air source heat exchangers as heat source of the system. There is a winter-sowing problems in air source multi heat pump system when the outdoor temperature goes down under freezing point. The winter-sowing problem was solved by adapting R-22 refrigerant as working fluid in the previous study. However, when the system operated at high temperature, another problems are come out such as overheating of the solar collector outlet which lead to the superheat of the compressor inlet of the heat pump system. The condition could deteriorates a compressor in some case. In this study, we installed the anti-superheating devices on the previously developed system. As results of system performance test, COP of the system with anti-superheating technique is 2.4. It is a little improved COP compare to previous study's 2.23. In the results of multi heat source heating system, during operating solar collector, COP is relatively high between $200\;W/m^2$ and $400\;W/m^2$ solar intensity. It is recommended to extend the study on performance optimization with balancing the solar collect and capacity of compressor at higher solar irradiation conditions.

A good fluidity of high strength Al-alloys is required to cast thin wall castings needed to reduce the weight of cast parts. The fluidity, measured as the length to which the metal flows in a standard channel, is affected by many factors, such as the pouring temperature, solidification type of the alloy, the channel thickness, melt head, mold materials and temperature, coating etc. Therefore the experimentally measured fluidity scatters very much and makes it difficult to estimate the fluidity of a melt with a few measurements. The effect of Ti content and grain refinement on the fluidity of high strength aluminum alloy was investigated with a test casting with 8 thin flow channels to reduce the scattering of the fluidity results. The fluidity of Al-4.8%Cu-0.6%Mn Al-6.2%Zn-1.6%Mg-1.0%Cu and well-known commercial aluminum alloy, A356 was tested. Initial content of Ti was varied from 0 to 0.2wt% and Al-5Ti-B master alloy was added for grain refinement. The flow length varied linearly with superheat. By adding Ti and Al-5Ti-B, the fluidity increased. The grain size decreased by adding grain refiner at the same time. The fluidity depended on the degree of grain refinement. The fluidity of the alloy solidifying in mushy type is improved by grain refinement, because grain refinement increases the solid fraction at the time of flow stoppage.

This paper deals with precise analytical state equation modeling of a variable speed refrigeration system (VSRS) for optimum control in state space. The VSRS is described as multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) system, which has two controlled variables and two control inputs. First, the Navier-Stokes equation and mass flow rate were applied to each component of the basic refrigeration cycle to build a dynamic model. The dynamic model, represented by a differential equation, was transformed into the state equation formula. Next, a full-order state observer was built to estimate all of the state variables to compose an optimum control system. Then, an optimum controller was designed to minimize an evaluation function that has input energy and control error. Finally, simulations and experiments were conducted to verify the validity of the proposed modeling and designed optimum controller to regulate target temperature and superheat in a 1RT oil cooler system. The results show that the proposed method, state equation modeling and optimum control, is efficient to ensure optimal control performance of the VSRS.

최근 안정적 전력수급을 위하여 화력발전에 대한 중요성이 더해 가고 있다. 화력발전설비 중 과열증기저감기는 보일러에서 생산된 과열증기가 발전터빈을 손상하지 않도록 적당한 과열도를 유지시키는 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 460mm 배관에 $530^{\circ}C$, 1.36 MPa의 증기가 흐를 때, 국내에서 개발된 가변오리피스노즐로 $150^{\circ}C$, 36.7 kg/s, 4.28 MPa의 냉각수를 분사하는 조건에서 성능해석을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 증기관내 냉각수 온도가 $446^{\circ}C$로 유지되고 분무된 액적 크기가 $50{\mu}m$ 이하임을 확인하였다.
