This paper deals with the design and analysis of a 2-phase Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) used for the cooling fan motor of a refrigerator. To reduce the dead zone and improve the efficiency, the snail-earn type rotor pole and the asymmetric stator pole are investigated. For the optimal shape design, the performances of each model are obtained from numerical calculation results by 2D time-stepping finite element method (FEM) coupled with circuit equations. The accuracy of analysis is verified by comparing the analysis results with experimental data. According to the investigation results, improved shapes of stator and rotor poles are proposed.

Items and methods of synchronous type AC servo motor's performance evaluation were researched. Through the research, nine items of performance evaluations were selected from study of IEC standards and domestic technical reports. Using the proposed evaluation items and methods, performance evaluations were carried out into two domestic products and one foreign product for analysis of what results means. The results show that the proposed items of performance evaluations are reasonable and proper for performance evaluations of AC servo motors.

This paper deals with a water-cooled direct drive permanent magnet (DD-PM) motor design for an injection-molding application. In order to meet the requirements for the target application and consider the practical problems of the manufacturing industry, the DD-PM motor is designed in consideration of efficiency and structural strength with many constraints. The performances of the designed motor are estimated not only by magnetic field analysis, but also by thermal and structural analysis. The design and analysis results are presented with experiment results.

Performance comparisons of switched reluctance motor for cooling fan application are dealt in this paper. Conventional and novel segmental type motors with the same dimension are compared. The conventional 12/8 type is very popular and used widely. The structure of segmental rotor type motor is constructed from a series of discrete segments, and the stator is constructed from two types of stator poles: exciting and auxiliary poles. This type of motor has short flux path and no flux reversal in the stator. The auxiliary poles are not wound by the windings and only provide the flux return path. Compared with conventional SRM, the segmental structure increases electrical utilization of the machine and decreases core losses, which leads to higher efficiency. To verify the segmental structure, finite element method (FEM) is employed to get static and dynamic characteristics of both SRMs. Finally, the prototypes of conventional and segmental SRMs are tested for characteristics comparisons.

This paper deals with engine room layout design optimization of fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), which has been proposed as a potential alternative to fossil fuel depletion. Investing the great R&D efforts, the global vehicle manufacturers, especially Honda motor corporate, have shown not prototype vehicle but commercial vehicle using fuel cell in the market recently. In this paper, we analyze cooling performance and flow characteristic in the engine room of newly FCEV, in addition we suggest the optimization process for engine room layout design optimization. The two radiators in the vehicle for fuel cell stack and electronic components cooling have been analyzed and their performance are obtained in terms of cooling performance ratio (CPR). The value of CPR should always be less than one and based on criteria, we have achieved the optimum cooling performance of radiators for stack and electronic components. Aerodynamic performance is evaluated in terms of drag coefficient, improved through underbody modification using air devices.

This paper describes the quick and precise controlling method for home-applied refrigerator. The proposed controller is based on the fuzzy logic control method and is designed for better performance in maintaining the constant temperature of the refrigerator. The temperature of the refrigerator is controlled by the cooling air blowing fan motor which is put on, off according to fuzzy logic controller. Finally, I study the performance of the proposed controller through the computer simulation about the approximated model of the refrigerator.

Numerical simulation is conducted to clarify the heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of traction motor for electric car SIMPLE algorithm based on finite volume method is used to make linear algebra equation. The governing equations are solved by TDMA(TriDiagonal Matrix Algorithm) with line-by-line method and block correction. From the results of simulation, the characteristics of cooling pattern is strongly affected by the size of hole in stator core. In the case of high rotational speed of rotor, temperature difference along the axial direction is more decreased than that of low rotational speed.

This study was conducted to figure out the diagnosis basis of cooling performance depending on water amount in the refrigerant of air conditioner, which can be estimated by the temperatures and pressures along the refrigerant circulation line. A car air conditioner of SONATA III (Hyundai motor Co., Korea) was tested at maximum cooling condition at the engine speed of 1500 rpm in the room controlled at 33~$35^{\circ}C$ air temperature and 55~57% relative humidity conditionally. Measured variables were temperature differences between inlet and outlet pipe surfaces of the compressor, condenser, receive drier and evaporator; and high pressure and low pressure in the refrigerant circulation line; and temperature difference between inlet and outlet air of the cooling vent of evaporator. In this study, changes of the water amount in the refrigerant were correlated to the temperatures and pressure changes and also water amount caused poor cooling performance. As water amount increased in the refrigerant in the air conditioner, the performance of the cooling or the heat transfer became worse. Temporal variations of the surface temperature of the evaporator outlet pipe and the low-side pressure showed various patterns that could estimate the water amount. When the water amount caused bad cooling performance, the patterns of the temperature of the evaporator outlet pipe indicated irregular fluctuation greater than $5^{\circ}C$. When the diagnosis system is using just external sensors of the low-side pressure and the temperatures of inlet and outlet air of cooling vent of the evaporator, the precise pattern of bad cooling performance caused by excess water amount in the cooling line was irregular pressure fluctuation, 25 kPa under 120 kPa, and temperature, $12^{\circ}C$ and less.

This study dealt with the controller design of the cooling system for controlling the inside temperature of the LCD panel console(the rest console') using as an outdoor billboard. The cooling performance of the LCD console that had been developed by the preceding research, was insufficient in the performance of the controller. In order to improve the performance of the system, in this study defined the structure and the design condition of the system first, after measured the parameters having influence on the dynamic characteristics, and developed the mathematical model for the analysis of the system. Finally planned a controlling scheme of the system and simulated the controller for the performance checking, compared the performance of this system controller with the preceding one. The purpose of this study is the presentation of the more improving method for the system control.
