This paper presents a new winding method in the electronic descaling(ED) technology. The ED technology Produces an oscillating electric field via the Faraday's law to Provide necessary molecular agitation to dissolved mineral ions. But present method gives another agitation force to mineral ions, which is Lorentz's force. Experiments were peformed at various Renolds number. A series of tests was conducted, measuring pressure drop across test section and the overall heat transfer coefficient as a function of time. In order to accelerate the rate of fouling, artificial hard water of 1000ppm $CaCO_3$ was used throughout the tests. The results show that the new method accelerates collision of mineral ions and improvs efficiency of system.

An experimental investigation was made to study the performance characteristics of evaporator having different fin configurations and tube inner grooves. Three different types of fin such as super slitted fin, slitted fin, plain fin, and two types of tube such as inner grooved tube, and bare tube, are tested varying the air velocity, evaporation temperature and superheat of refrigerant. Results show that in the range of air side Reynolds number $3{\times}10^3\;-\;1.5{\times}10^4$ evaporator with super slitted fin and inner grooved tube shows best performance. It is 80% higher in overall heat transfer coefficient and 2.6 times higher in pressure loss compared to that with plain fin inner grooved tube. Friction factor is found to be almost independent of evaporating temperature and degree of superheat, while Colburn j factor varies with evaporating temperature.

Combined phase transformation and heat transfer was considered on the simulation of hot press forming process, using material properties modeler, $JMatPro^{(R)}$ and a finite element package, $DEFORM^{TM}$-HT. In order to obtain high temperature mechanical properties and flow curves for different phases, a material properties modeler, $JMatPro^{(R)}$ was used, avoiding expensive and extensive high temperature materials tests. The results successfully show that the strength of hot press forming parts may exhibit different strength in the same parts, depending on the contact of blank with tooling. It was also shown effectively that the strength of the parts can be controlled by designing appropriate cooling paths and coolants. This was shown in terms of different heat convection coefficient in the calculation. Overall, current combination of software was shown to be an effective tool for the tool and process design of hot forming process, although the material modeler needs to be additionally verified by an appropriate set of high temperature materials test.

During the evaporation of garlic juice by centrifugal thin film evaporator (Centri-Therm, CT-1B), the effect of feeding rate was investigated for its operation properties. On the process condition of feeding rate of 25 to 125 kg/h, theoretical average thickness of the garlic juice film on the rotating cone and residence time of the juice in the evaporator varied in the range of 0.52 to 0.89 mm and 1.77 to 6.75 second, respectively. And the flow of garlic juice was considered as a streamline flow by Reynolds number. At constant temperatures of steam and juice evaporation, concentration ratio decreased with the increase of the feeding rate. But the evapoartion rate and overall heat transfer coefficient increased with the increase of the feeding rate until the feeding rate reached a certain value and then decreased. On the conditions of $25{\leq}$feeding rate ${\leq}125\;kg/h$, evaporation temperature of $40^{\circ}C$, $95{\leq}steam$ $temperature≤120^{\circ}C$ and initial feed concentration of $32^{\circ}Brix$, concentration ratio and overall heat transfer coefficient were $1.04{\sim}2.04\;and\;3,074.33{\sim}17,614.70kJ/m^{2}{\cdot}h{\cdot}^{\circ}C$.

Greenhouse crop production under critical summer climate In Korea has considerable difficulties because of high temperature and relative humidity. In this study, some water pipes were tested as a means of the dehumidification and increment of evaporative cooling efficiency. As a result of heat transfer characteristic analysis, overall heat transfer coefficient of copper pipe was larger than steel pipe, and estimated values were smaller than measured values. The condensed quantities of vapor were not significantly different between copper pipe and steel pipe, however dehumidifying effect by the water pipes was significantly large. It was estimated based on the results that the evaporative cooling system by the water pipe will be able to increase the evaporative cooling efficiency of about 48%, and decrease the temperature of about 1.3$^{\circ}C$.

In this study, performance of 2 pure hydrocarbons R290 and R1270 was measured in an attempt to substitute R22 under 3 different temperature conditions. They were tested in a refrigerating bench tester with a hermetic rotary compressor. The test bench provided about 3.5 kW capacity and water and water/glycol mixture were employed as the secondary heat transfer fluids. All tests were conducted under the same external conditions resulting in the average saturation temperatures of $7/45^{\circ}C$ and $-7/41^{\circ}C$ and $-21/28^{\circ}C$ in the evaporator and condenser, respectively. Test results show that the coefficient of performance (COP) of these refrigerants is up to 11.54% higher than that of R22 in all temperature conditions. Compressor discharge temperatures were reduced by $14{\sim}31^{\circ}C$ with these fluids. There was no problem with mineral oil since the mixtures were mainly composed of hydrocarbons. The amount of charge was reduced up to 58% as compared to R22. Overall, these fluids provide good performance with reasonable energy savings without any environmental problem and thus can be used as long term alternatives for residential air-conditioning and heat pumping application.
