Line heating with water cooling is generally adapted process in the shipyards for the forming hull surface. The purpose of this paper is to develop a model of thermal deformation in water cooling process after the line heating. In order to simulate the cooling process, heat transfer analysis was performed by assuming the effects of water cooling as a negative heat-source. Experiment for the line heating with water cooling was performed for 9 models of plates in order to verify the cooling model. By using the suggested model for the water cooling process, it could be observed that the present method predict the plate deformations in the line heating more accurately.

The development of new energy has attracted consideration attention due to the high oil price and environmental problems. In advanced country, they have tried to carry out a long range plan for energy. We need to develop new energy for Low Carbon Green Growth in Korea. The building is 30% among ratio of energy consumption in Korea. And in the past, heating energy was high ratio for energy using at home. But recently, the demand for cooling energy keeps growing due to rising average temperature on the earth and improvement of life quality. In this situation, the energy of lake water and ocean water has studied to utilize in advanced country because of low temperature at underwater. But the study for deep water is still a lot left to do. In this study, we analyzed district cooling system and the present condition. Analyzing the deep lake water cooling system in Toronto, we found an application of district cooling system using deep ocean water. Deep lake water uses heat source for district cooling and water source for city in Toronto. So reducing the initial cost, this city had economic effect. When DLWC was applied at existing building, the heat exchanger was installed instead of cooling tower and refrigerator. And the heat exchanger used to connect main pipe with cool water on city. System using deep ocean water can be applied as a similar way to supply cool water from lake to building.

Recently, alternative energy resources have emerged considerably due to the high oil prices and environment problems. Deep sea water that is one of the natural energy sources can be one of the attractive solutions to reduce the environment problems, and there are already a few examples in some developed countries. In this study, cooling system of deep sea water using heat exchangers of two hotels, located in near Haeundae Bay in Busan, have been analyzed on the quantity of electricity and gas use comparison between existing cooling system and deep seawater cooling system by using E-Quest simulation program. The results of the study showed that the Hotel A approximately saves 370 millions won per year, and the Hotel B saves 248 millions won per year. It means that the cooling system by using deep sea water has great worth to reduce the ratio of fuel sources.

The study was to analysis the dispersion of the cooling water of Kori atomic power station using thermal infrared data. The dispersion pattern of the cooling water analysis clearly on the LANDSAT TM band 6. It was changed due to tidal current, that is, the cooling water disperses north-eastern direction during the low tide and southweatern direction during the high tide. The relative temperature distribution was mapped through the density slicing method on the images.

The objectives of this paper are to investigate the performance of silica gel-water adsorption refrigeration system with heat recovery process from the system experiment. This system can be driven by waste heat at near ambient temperature from $60^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$. The cooling capacity and coefficient of performance(COP) were measured from various experimental conditions. An experimental results revealed the influence of operating temperatures(hot, cooling and chilled water), water flow rates, and adsorption-desorption cycle times on cooling capacity and COP. Under the standard conditions of $80^{\circ}C$ hot water, $25^{\circ}C$ cooling water, $14^{\circ}C$ chilled water inlet temperatures and 420sec cycle time, a cooling capacity of 1.14kW and a COP for cooling of 0.55 can be achieved.

Following the Fukushima accident, a special safety inspection was conducted in Korea. The inspection results show that Korean nuclear power plants have no imminent risk for expected maximum potential earthquake or coastal flooding. However long- and short-term safety improvements do need to be implemented. One of the measures to increase the mitigation capability during a prolonged station blackout (SBO) accident is installing injection flow paths to provide emergency cooling water of external sources using fire engines to the steam generators or reactor cooling systems. This paper illustrates an evaluation of the effectiveness of external cooling water injection strategies using fire trucks during a potential extended SBO accident in a 1,000 MWe pressurized water reactor. With regard to the effectiveness of external cooling water injection strategies using fire engines, the strategies are judged to be very feasible for a long-term SBO, but are not likely to be effective for a short-term SBO.

A chiller cooler absorbs the thermal energy of water to generate cold water and supplies the generated cold water to a cold water pipe buried in the wall of a small mobile modular house to greatly increase the cooling area. An attempt was made to reduce the required cooling time significantly. A small chiller cooler suitable for the cooling load of a small mobile modular house with an area less than 3.3 m² was employed. When cooling is done during summer using a chiller cooler installed outdoors, heat absorption energy loss occurs in the cold water pipe owing to the high temperature. To address this, a study was conducted to reduce the endothermic energy loss significantly. As the mass flow rate of the cold water flowing inside the cold water pipe increased, the temperature decrease gradient of the cold water increased. From the start of the cooling operation, the air temperature of the small mobile modular house decreased linearly in proportion to the operation time. Furthermore, the temperature of the air inside the small mobile modular house decreased in proportion to the increase in the flow of water inside the cold water pipe.

Cooling tower is an important equipment of the cooling systems for large buildings like factory and department store. Water used for cooling in cooling tower is reused continuously. If the water is polluted, corrosion and scale can happen at equipments and pipes. In order to prevent this problem, it is necessary to control the water quality using chemicals. To control the water quality, an automatic control system is designed, fabricated, and experimented. The control system is based on an imbedded microcontroller. Relays are used for power driving, an LCD and LED for display, and RS485 for remote data acquisition. Monitoring program is also developed for easy man-machine interface and extraction of data stored in the imbedded processor and EEPROM. The control system calculates amounts of chemicals necessary using sensor data and injects the chemicals into the cooling tower on proper time. The developed water quality control system is expected to reduce cost of maintenance and extend the lifetime of the cooling systems with low cost.

The cooling characteristics of a hot steel plate by a laminar impinging water bar were investigated experimentally. The dynamic parameters investigated were nozzle height L between nozzle and the hot plate, flow rate Q, and initial cooling temperature. Because the boiling phenomena on a hot steel plate are unsteady and change discontinuously, it is difficult to analyze the cooling characteristics directly. In this study the cooling efficiency was estimated by using the temperature decay rates and expansion speed of the water cooling zone. Temperature in the water cooling zone decreased rapidly and the radius of the water cooling zone expanded nearly in proportion to square root of the cooling time. With increasing initial temperature of a hot steel plate, the cooling efficiency became descendent. The cooling curve in the case of L/D = 30 showed the largest temperature decay rate and excellent cooling performance.
