The evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ (R-744) in a horizontal tube was investigated experimentally. The experiments were conducted without oil in a closed refrigerant loop which was driven by a magnetic gear pump. The main components of the refrigerant loop are a receiver. a variable-speed pump. a mass flow meter. a pre-heater and evaporator (test section). The test section consists of a smooth. horizontal stainless steel tube of 7.75 mm inner diameter. The experiments were conducted at mass flux of 200 to $500\;kg/m^{2}s$. saturation temperature of $-5^{\circ}C\;to\;5^{\circ}C$. and heat flux of 10 to $40\;kW/m^2$. The test results showed the evaporation heat transfer of $CO_2$ has greatly effect on more nucleate boiling than convective boiling. The evaporation heat transfer coefficients of $CO_2$ are highly dependent on the vapor quality. heat flux and saturation temperature. The evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ is very larger than that of R-22 and R-134a. In making a comparison between test results and existing correlations. the present experimental data are the best fit for the correlation of Jung et al. But it was failed to predict the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ using by the existing correlation. Therefore. it is necessary to develop reliable and accurate predictions determining the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ in a horizontal tube.

대부분의 대규모 배수지는 고지대에 위치함으로써 자연유하를 통해 배, 급수지역으로 용수를 공급한다. 이를 위해 배수지 전단에는 가압장이 위치하여 정수장에서 처리된 용수를 고지대에 위치한 배수지로 송수한다. 이때 가압장에서 발생하는 전력소비량이 매우 높은 것으로 알려져 있으며, 효율적인 펌프운영을 통해 상당한 전력비용 절감이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 일반적인 가압장의 운영은 시스템 운영자의 경험을 토대로 해당 가압장에 연결된 배수지의 수위에 따라 펌프의 작동여부를 결정하는 방법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 이러한 운영방법은 용수공급의 안전성을 우선시함으로써 배수지의 수위를 일정하게 유지하고자 빈번하게 펌프를 작동하게 되고 따라서 가압장에서 소모되는 전력량이 커서 운영효율 측면에서는 바람직하지 않다고 할 수 있다. 또한 빈번한 펌프의 작동으로 인해 펌프의 수명이 단축될 뿐만 아니라, 배수지내 용수의 수질저하 문제도 발생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 펌프장 운영을 위해 급수지역의 24시간 용수사용량을 예측하고, 그에 따른 펌프장의 가압 유량 및 양정을 파악하여 적정용량의 펌프를 선정하고 운영함으로써 펌프의 운영비용의 최소화 및 안정적인 용수공급을 동시에 달성하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 실시간 최적화 모형을 개발하였다. 개발된 최적화 모형은 상수관망해석 프로그램(EPAENT)을 연계하여 수요절점의 수압조건 및 운영상황을 모의하였다. 최적화 기법으로는 유전자알고리즘을 사용하였으며, 실제 시스템의 운영상황를 반영하기 위한 다양한 제약조건(operational constraints)을 적용하였다. 개발된 모형은 정속펌프(혹은 On/Off 펌프) 뿐만 아니라, 최근 실무에서 널리 사용되고 있는 변속펌프(variable speed pump)를 추가적으로 고려하였다. 개발된 모형은 국내에서 실제 운영되고 있는 송, 배수 시스템에 적용하여 모형의 실무 적용가능성을 검증하였다.

The objective of this study was to find out the technical feasibility of ethanol-diesel fuel blends as a diesel engine fuel. Fuel properties essential to the proper operation of a diesel engine were determined for blends containing several concentrations of ethanol in No. 2 diesel fuel. A single-cylinder diesel engine for a power tiller was used for the engine tests, in which load, speed and fuel consumption rate were measured. The fuels used in tests were No. 2 diesel fuel and a blend containing 10-percent ethanol and 90-percent No. 2 diesel fuel. The results of the study are summarized as follows. 1. It was not possible to blend ethanol and No. 2 diesel fuel as a homogeneous solution even though anhydrous ethanol was used. The problem of blending ethanol in No. 2 diesel fuel could be solved by adding butanol about 5% of the amount of ethanol in the blends. 2. Because ethanol had a much lower boiling point ($78.3^{\circ}C$ under atmospheric pressure) than a diesel fuel, it was necessary to store ethanol-diesel fuel blends airtight in order to prevent them from evaporation losses of ethanol. 3. The addition of ethanol to No. 2 diesel fuel lowered the fuel viscosity and the cetane rating, but a blend of 10% ethanol and 90% diesel fuel had a viscosity and a cetane rating well above the KS minimum values for No. 2 diesel fuel. 4. At the rated speed, the specific fuel consumption of No.2 diesel fuel was lower than that of the 10% ethanol blend for the almost entire range of load. However, under the overload condition the specific fuel consumption was lower for the 10% ethanol blend. 5. Under the variable-speed full-load tests, both fuels produced approximately the same torque and power. At the speeds of 1600rpm or below, the specific fuel consumption of No. 2 diesel fuel was lower than that of the 10% ethanol blend. At the speeds of 1600rpm or above, however, the specific fuel consumption was lower for the 10% ethanol blend. 6. At the ambient temperature above $15^{\circ}C$, the use of the 10% ethanol blend in the engine created a vapor lock in the fuel injection pump and stalled the engine. The vapor locking problem was overcome by chilling the surroundings of the fuel injection pump and the cylinder head with water.

The cooling heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ (R-744) in a horizontal and helically coiled tube was investigated experimentally. The main components of the refrigerant loop are a receiver, a variable-speed pump, a mass flow meter, a pre-heater, evaporator and gas cooler (test section). The test section consists of a horizontal stainless steel tube and hellically coiled copper tube of 4.57 and 7.75 mm. The experiments were conducted at saturation temperature of 100 to $20^{\circ}C$, and mass flux of 200 to $500kg/m^2s$. The test results showed the variation of the heat transfer coefficient tended to decrease as cooling pressure of $CO_2$ increased. The heat transfer coefficient with respect to mass flux increased as mass flux increased. The experimental results were also compared with the existing correlations for the supercritical heat transfer coefficient, which generally underpredicted the measured data. However, the experimental data showed a relatively good agreement with the correlations of Pitla et al. except for the pseudo critical temperature.

The heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop during gas cooling process of carbon dioxide in a helically coiled tube were investigated experimentally. The experiments were conducted without oil in the refrigerant loop. The main components of the refrigerant loop are a receiver, a variable speed pump, a mass flowmeter, a pre-heater, a gas cooler(test section) and an isothermal tank. The test section is a double pipe type heat exchanger with refrigerant flowing in the inner tube and water flowing in the annulus. It was made of a copper tube with the inner diameter of 4.85 [mm], the outer diameter of 6.35 [mm] and length of 10000 [mm]. The refrigerant mass fluxes were 200${\sim}$600 [kg/$m^2$s] and the average pressure varied from 7.5 [MPa] to 10.0 [MPa]. The main results were summarized as follows: The heat transfer coefficient of supercritical $CO_2$ increases, as the cooling pressure of gas cooler decreases. And the heat transfer coefficient increases with the increase of the refrigerant mass flux. The pressure drop decreases in increase of the gas cooler pressure and increases with increase the refrigerant mass flux.

Most distributed water is not used effectively due to water loss occurring in pipe networks. These water losses are caused by leakage, typically due to high water pressure to ensure adequate water supply. High water pressure can cause the pipe to burst or develop leaks over time, particularly in an aging network. In order to reduce the amount of leakage and ensure proper water distribution, it is important to apply pressure management. Pressure management aims to maintain a steady and uniform pressure level throughout the network, which can be achieved through various operational schemes. The schemes include: (1) installing a variable speed pump (VSP), (2) introducing district metered area (DMA), and (3) operating pressure-reducing valves (PRV). Applying these approaches requires consideration of various hydraulic, economic, and environmental aspects. Due to the different functions of these approaches and related components, an all-together optimization of these schemes is a complicated task. In order to reduce the optimization complexity, this study recommends a sequential optimization method. With three network operation schemes considered (i.e., VSP, DMA, and PRV), the method explores all the possible combinations of pressure management paths. Through sequential optimization, the best pressure management path can be determined using a multiple-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) to weigh in factors of cost savings, investment, pressure uniformity, and CO₂ emissions. Additionally, the contribution of each scheme to pressure management was also described in the application results.

Fresh corn, one of the main food crops, must be harvested by hand. A harvest mechanization technology is required. In this study, a tractor-attached harvester was designed and manufactured to sequentially perform stem reaping, fresh corn detaching, and collecting. The(harvester was designed so that the main device could operate through a hydraulic pump and a generator could be operated through the tractor's PTO. Factor tests were conducted according to cultivars (Ilmichal, Super sweet corn) and working speed (0.12 m/s, 0.17, 0.22). After the factor test, detached corns ratio, collected corns ratio, and damaged corns ratio were analyzed and harvest performance was evaluated. Harvesting performance was good for super sweet corn. Considering operation efficiency, 0.22 m/s was judged to be an appropriate working speed. It was found that it took two hours to work an area of 10 a.
