Cooling tower is analyzed as an assembly of layered nonlinear shell elements. Geometric representation of the shell is enabled through layered nonlinear shell elements to define the different layers of reinforcements and concrete by considering the material nonlinearity of each layer for the cooling tower shell. Modal analysis using Ritz vector analysis and nonlinear time history analysis by direct integration method have been carried out to study the effects of the inclination of the supporting columns of the cooling tower shell on its dynamic characteristics. The cooling tower is supported by I-type columns and ${\Lambda}$-type columns supports having the different inclination angles. Relevant comparisons of the dynamic response of the structural system at the base level (at the junction of the column and shell), throat level and at the top of the tower have been made. Dynamic response of the cooling tower is found to be significantly sensitive to the change of the inclination of the supporting columns. It is also found that the stiffness of the structure system increases with increase in inclination angle of the supporting columns, resulting in decrease of the period of the structural system. The participation of the stiffness of the tower in structural response of the cooling tower is fund to be dependent of the change in the inclination angle and even in the types of the supporting columns.

This study deals with the characteristic of refrigerant for heat-treatment deformation control of SM45C steel. The control of heat-treatment deformation must need the progress of production parts for a landing gear. Most of the deformation is occurred on unequal cooling. The unequal cooling is occurred by a property of quenching refrigeration. When a heated metal is deposited in the refrigeration, the cooling speed is so slow in early period of cooling because of occurring a steam-curtain. After more cooling, the steam-curtain is destroyed. In this progress, the cooling speed is very fast. The object of this study is to control the deformation of heat-treatment for landing gear by improving the conditions of quenching. The cooling curves and cooling rates of water, oil and polymer solution are obtained and illustrated. From the characteristics of the quenching refrigerant, the effects of heat-treatments on thermal deformation and fatigue strength are also investigated.

발효조의 냉각수 공급 제어 신호와 냉각수의 유출입 지점의 온도를 온라인으로 측정하여 이 값들로부터 냉각량을 추정할 수 있는 실험식을 얻었다. 회분식 배양을 통하여 냉각량이 온라인으로 측정될 수 있음을 확인하였고 기질의 재투입시 냉각량의 변화를 통하여 유가배양의 제어변수로 활용할 수 있음을 점검하였다. 미리 프로그램된 목표 냉각량의 증가곡선에 따라 냉각량이 증가되면서 세포가 자라도록 유가배양을 실시하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 냉각량의 온라인 측정방법을 제시하였고 이를 유가배양 제어변수로 활용하여 세포의 성장속도를 조절할 수 있음을 보였다.

In this study, a comparative analysis between an electric heat pump cooling system and a hybrid desiccant cooling system is conducted. Desiccant cooling is a thermal driven system with potentially lower electric power consumption than electric heat pump. Hybrid desiccant cooling system simulation includes components such as a desiccant rotor, direct and indirect evaporative coolers, heat exchangers, fans, and a heat pump system. Using dynamic simulations by climate conditions, house cooling temperatures and power consumption for both systems are analyzed for 16 days period in the summer season under climate scenarios for the year 2100 prediction. The results reveal that the hybrid desiccant cooling system exhibits a 5-18% reduction in electric consumption compared to the heat pump system.

Building is a major energy consumer, and now many efforts are made to save energy in the design and using equipments. The most noticeable achievement in those efforts is a building energy performance assessment program. But most programs are not satisfying enough to provide exact meteorological data, and data source and calculation, and data collection period are not clearly defined. That is common in most of domestic programs. This study collects typical meteorological data in 16 items and analyzes them with Visual DOE 4.0 to compare with existing data. The comparison found that revised data shows a 11% increase on average during cooling period from June to September, and a 13% decrease on average during heating period from December to February, in terms of building heating and cooling load in a monthly basis.

The present study has been conducted to reduce the cold air drying rate. According to the cold air drying method, the quality-excellent product could be made and there would be little change of color, taste and smell. As compared with the hot air drying, the cold air drying equipment has the superior dehumidification in a constant drying zone. However, in a falling drying zone that equipment is not energy-efficient because the drying period could be longer by the dehumidificated.

Computer simulations were performed for Heating Ventilating and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) systems to figure out more efficient maintenance methods for the building used for adolescent trainees. This study aims at suggesting design alternatives for optimum operation and performing life cycle cost (LCC) for each alternative. First, the capacity of the heat source equipment was determined using annual maximum heating and cooling loads. Annual loads were calculated and applied to the alternative for the purpose of calculating annual energy cost. Second, several types of data were collected to predict energy cost. Finally, the pay back period for each alternative was calculated using total cost estimation during standard duration period. This study indicates that the absorption chiller that does not occupy most part of a mechanical room, and does not need much operation cost was most economical.

Fire is one of the most destructive powers to which a building structure can be subjected, often exposing concrete elements to elevated temperatures. The relative properties of concrete after such an exposure are of significant importance in terms of the serviceability of buildings. Unraveling the heating history of concrete and different cooling regimes is important for forensic research or to determine whether a fire-exposed concrete structure and its components are still structurally sound or not. Assessment of fire-damaged concrete structures usually starts with visual observation of colour change, cracking and spalling. Thus, it is important to know the effect of elevated temperatures on strength retention properties of concrete. This study reports the effect of elevated temperature on the mechanical properties of the concrete specimen with polypropylene fibres and cooled differently under various regimes. In the heating cycle, the specimen were subjected to elevated temperatures ranging from $200^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$, in steps of $200^{\circ}C$ with a retention period of 1 hour. Then they were cooled to room temperature differently. The cooling regimes studied include, furnace cooling, air cooling and sudden cooling. After exposure to elevated temperatures and cooled differently, the weight loss, residual compressive and split tensile strengths retention characteristics were studied. Test results indicated that weight and both compressive and tensile strengths significantly reduce, with an increase in temperature and are strongly dependent on cooling regimes adopted.

해양과 대기간의 열교환에 관한 문제는 세계적으로 여러 학자들의 연구에 의해서 강조되어 온 바와 같이 해양학과 기상학에서 매우 중요한 비중을 차지하고 있는 분야 로서 선진제국의 이에 대한 관심과 연구열은 매우 다대하다. 한국근해에서의 해양과 대기간의 열교환에 관하여는 Jacobs(1951), Manabe(1957, 1958), Ninomiya(1964,1968) Wyrtki(1965, 1968), Takahashi(1969), Moriyasu(1952, 1969), Ishida(1970) 및 한( 1970, 1972) 등의 조사보고가 있으나 이들은 대개 한국근해를 중심으로 다루어진 것이 아니거나 시기적으로 또는 지역적으로 국한되어 있는 것이므로 우리나라 근해에서의 전반적인 열교환에 관하여는 보고된 바가 거의 없는 실정이다.
