Heat pipes, applied to flat plate solar collectors, have a long and slender configuration with relatively low heat flux on the evaporator. Such a heat pipe has a tendency to build-up a liquid pool at the lower half of evaporator zone, and at this pool occurs such complicated phenomena of evaporation and fluid dynamics as superheat, sudden generation of bubble, its likely explosive growth process and flooding etc. In the present study, we tried to solve those problems by means of adjusting the two principle design parameters, liquid fill charge and wick length, using 4 heat pipes and 3 thermosyphons, with different values of parameter respectively. The corresponding results can be summarized as followings, - The thermal conductance of heat pipes was largely improved by el eliminating wick from adiabatic and condenser zone. - But on evaporator zone wick is inevitable to reduce behavior of the build -up of liquid pool , where arise diverse internal complex phenomena. - The liquid fill charge should have to be increased by 10∼20％ more than the quantity to saturate the wick.

A 3 valve-type pulse tube refrigerator optains its cooling effect from pressure drop by releasing the part of the charged gas through hot end nozzle. The objective of this study is to analyze the performance and to find an optimal expansion pressure of the 3 valve-type pulse tube refrigerator. It is assumed that gas lumps are not mixed and periodically repeat the adiabatic compression and expansion processes. And the nodal model is applied for the analysis of the regenerator. As the result of analysis, the optimum pressure at the end of expansion process was about 80-90% of the maximum pressure.

Simplified thermodynamic analysis of high pressure 4-stage reciprocating compressors with 4 inter-coolers has been investigated to predict a behavior of a compressor system for NGV(natural gas vehicles). A computer program has been developed to predict and estimate the performance of high pressure 4-stage reciprocating compressor system. Thermodynamic properties of compressed natural gas(CNG) were calculated by ideal gas theory and compression cycle was assumed as reversible adiabatic compression and expansion processes, and isobaric intake and discharge processes. Comparison between results predicted by calculation model and measured by experimental tests is presented.

heat pipe with screen meshed wick. The heat pipe was designed in 200 screen meshs, 500 mm length and 12mm O.D tube of copper, water as working fluid and nitrogen as non-condensible gas. Heat pipe used in this study has evaporator, condenser and adiabatic section, respectively. Experimental data of wall temperature distribution along axial length is presented for heat transport capacity, condensor cooling water temperature change, degrees of an inclination angle, and operating temperature.

Design optimization of a transonic compressor rotor(NASA rotor 37) was carried out using response surface method(RSM) which is one of the optimization methods. A numerical simulation was conducted using ANSYS CFX by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes(RANS) equations. Response surfaces that were based on the results of the design of experiment(DOE) techniques were used to find an optimal shape of blade which has the maximum aerodynamic performance. Two objective functions, viz., the adiabatic efficiency and the loss coefficient were selected with three design configurations to optimize the blade shape. As a result, the efficiency of the optimized blade is found to be increased.

This paper introduces the part of efforts to develop a derivative type turboshaft engine from an existing baseline engine for multi-purpose helicopters aiming at 4000 kg of take-off weight for 10-12 passengers. As a first step in meeting the development goal of increasing the output power from 720 hp to 840hp with minimum modification, a two stage axial compressor was redesigned to obtain the higher pressure ratio by removing the inlet guide vane and increasing the chord length. As a result, a two stage axial compressor was designed to facilitate a flow rate of 3.04 kg/s, a pressure ratio of 2.01 and an adiabatic efficiency of $85\%$. Its performance tests were carried out and verification of test results and redesign are under progress. Aerodynamic and structural analyses of the preliminary design are mainly described in this paper.

A numerical model for predicting the performance of gas distrubutor type double inlet pulse tube refrigerators has been developed. The model was based on adiabatic analysis and the losses of heat exchangers and regenerator were considered. Thermodynamic behavior of working fluid within a double inlet pulse tube refrigerator was investigated and the effects of design parameters, such as valve and orifice openings, cold heat exchanger temperature, frequency and pulse tube length, on the cooling capacity and COP were shown.

New type of metal hydride heat pump (MHHP) combined with hydrogen compressor was constucted for cooling purpose. A model for calculating the coefficient of performance (COP) is presented for MHHP which consisted of two different stages (enforced and natural stage), and compared with the experimental results. A concept of adiabatic compression work is introduced in the model on the basis of Carnot reversible analysis and the dependence of COP on the various operational parameters is discussed.

This paper examines the efficiency of the application of conventional and insulated gang forms for curing and protection of concrete by comparing the amount of electric energy required therefor. In addition, a thermal vision camera was used to identify heat loss from surfaces of the gang forms after each placement of concrete. Experimental results, show that the heat loss at the submerged temperature was large at the submerged surface due to the large calorific value at the surface of the mold. The insulated gang form had some heat loss in the horizontal bars. In the case of adiabatic reforming, the pattern shows a constant calorific value over time. In conclusion, the insulation performance is better than that of general gang form.

Pneumatic control systems have been mainly used as a high speed operating system. Therefore, state change of air in a control volume was assumed to be adiabatic change and, pneumatic control systems have been analyzed by using this assumption. Especially, when absolute value of pressure change in the control volume is small, there is a tendency to neglect effect of temperature change on pneumatic control system because temperature change owing to pressure change is small. In this study, an effect of temperature change of air on the decompression control process was analyzed by considering change of mass flow rate, and heat transfer characteristics between air in the chamber and the chamber wall. As a result, this study could confirm that a slight temperature change of the air in the pneumatic pressure control system can influence on the dynamic characteristics of pressure response, and pressure control performance.
