Sub-cooled hybrid condenser(SCHC) which have been developed through this study is an appliance of integrating a condenser with a receiver dryer, which were previously separated. It is supposed that the development of sub-cooled hybrid condenser will be able to reduce not only weight, size, production process and cost, but also quite improve in capability, which will be of great use for the technological development and research of an air conditioning system whose importance is higher in a car. Through the present study it was found that the developed SCHC increases in the degree of sub-cooling by 10∼100% compared to conventional condenser. The excessive sub-cool has improved the cooling performance by 10%, and that leads to the reduction in evaporator outlet air temperature $1.5^{\circ}C$. Additionally, it is expected that sub-cooled hybrid condenser weights less by 100g than the previous condensers which has equal super heat.

Recently, a study on condensers for refrigerators has focused on new model which will cost less and will be more efficient. Some widely used condensers for domestic refrigerators are wire-and-tube type condenser, hot-wall type condenser, and spiral type condenser. Some companies which use the spiral type condenser at the moment try to develop a new type condenser which will cost less and will be as efficient as the spiral type. The new type condenser consists of a steel tube, steel plates and louver fins attached to the tube. The tube and the plate are bent into a single-passage serpentine shape.

This paper presents a method for optimal placement of series condenser in order to improve the power system transient stability using genetic algorithms(GAs). In applying GAs, this approach utilizes two kinds of strings, one is coded by a binary finite-length for the selection of lines to install series condenser, the other is coded by a real value for the determination of injected condenser capacitance. For the formulation. this paper considers multi-objective function which is the critical energy as decelerating energy in power systems and the total injected condenser capacitance. The proposed method is applied to 9-bus, 18-line, 3-machine model system to show its effectiveness in determining the locations to install series condenser and the series condenser capacitance to be injected, simultaneously.

The purpose of this study is to compare the different shapes of condenser of the direct contact heat transfer from the heat pipe condenser to the receiving water using CFD. The heat transfer from the working fluid of the heat pipe to receiving fluid flows through the manifolder is one of the important part in evacuated solar collector system. The retrenchment of the thermal resistance between the heat pipe and the manifolder could increase the thermal performances of the whole system. Recently, direct heat transfer from the heat pipe condenser wall to the receiving water was suggested and accompanied experiments were achieved. This experiment shows the better performances of the direct contact heat transfer analogically. Preceding calculations are carried out for the performance comparison: mesh dependence test, discretization method test and equation model test. with these preceding tests, 4 different shapes of condenser are compared and each case were set up for the same heat flux at the condenser wall. The calculation result shows that the efficiency of the extended surface condenser shape is 10% higher then the that of the others.

The management of power factor(PF) in the distribution line is treated according to the measurement a month about the feeder unit at the substation. In Korea, we have not researched into power factor in distribution system due to it's less weight. The reactive power in advanced countries is controlled automatically by the compensative condenser switch on/off under the monitoring. This paper first presents the optimal condenser position and proper capacity by lagrangue factor ${\lambda}_{Q}$ which is the line loss index about reactive power unit. Therefore, the largest ${\lambda}_{Q}$ node is the condenser injection point and we find out the best condenser capacity when the line loss is saturated by the moderation of condenser volume. By this method, we suggest 0.6% uprising PF by injection of 15 kVA condenser. Additionally, PF is analysed into 5 areas; large city, middle city, small city, farm village, fishing village by the use of Power Platform which is classified the same concept of the low load management in KEPCO. Two feeders of each area are selected by the worst results of PF in specified areas.

The present study performs a test of a change in a condenser pressure on two kinds of power plants having different condenser pressure-heat rate correction curve and evaluates the results. According to a result of the test, it is confirmed that a sub-critical drum type steam power plant is optimally operated at the condenser pressure of 38㎜Hga that is designed, even during winters. On the other hand, it can be found that a supercritical once through type steam power plant operated at the condenser pressure that is reduced below a design value, that is, up to 28㎜Hga during winters is advantageous in view of turbine efficiency and is operated without a problem in facility operation such as moisture erosion, turbine vibration, etc. Also, the present study compares and reviews a condenser pressure-heat rate correction curve proposed by a manufacturer and a test value. The present study proposes optimum condenser operation pressure capable of concurrently satisfying the stable operation and efficiency improvement of the power plant facility that is operating, making it possible to support an efficient operation of a power plant.

The stack effect of a new type condenser installed in a high-rise apartment building was studied numerically A sirocco fan is introduced to the new type condenser instead of an axial flow In. The new type condenser intakes the cold air through the lower inlet and exhausts the hot air through the upper outlet. The effects of the building height and frontal wind on the performance of an air-conditioner were analyzed. The performance of an air-conditioner was evaluated by using COP (coefficient of performance) and CGPI (condenser group performance indicator). the hot air was exhausted by the new type condenser at an angle of 50$^{\circ}$ from the outer wall of the building. If there was no draft, the new type condenser installed in the high-rise apartment building had a good performance and its performance on each floor is not influenced by the stack effect. It is shown that the efficiency of the air-conditioner installed in several floors below the top floor decreased when the frontal wind velocity was greater than 8 m/s.

The electric characteristics of all the instruments and materials used in atomic field is changed due to radiation damages by the effects of radio activities. In this study, when the condenser is radiated by Gamma-ray, variations in its electric properties have been investigated. The following results are obtained. (1) The capacitance in O.F paper condenser is exponentially increased as the quantity of irradiation by Gamma-ray is increased, but polyethylene, ceramic, chemical, neostyrene, mylar condenser are decreased. and in case of more than 10$^{7}$ of irradiation it has saturated state, (2) The breakdown voltage and the .delta. in condensers except the O.F paper condenser are exponentially increased as the quantity of irradiation by Gamma-ray is increased but in case of more than 10$^{7}$ .gamma. of irradiation it has decreased.

An experimental study was performed to understand the heat transfer and fluid dynamic characteristics of Sub-Cooled Hybrid Condenser (SCHC), which conventional condenser and receiver dryer are integrated into. SCHC also employs a sub-cooled refrigerant passages at the end of the condenser in order to supply perfect liquid refrigerant to the expansion unit. Throughout the present study, it was found that the developed SCHC increases in the degree of sub-cooling by 10~100% compared to conventional condenser. The excessive sub-cooling has improved the cooling performance by 10%, and that leads reduction in evaporator outlet air temperature by $1.5^{\circ}C$. Also found through the study is that the refrigerant pressure drop across SCHC is fairly increased due to insertion of the desiccant cartridge in the receiver tank which is composed of zeolite, filter and supporter plate.
