The objective of the present work is to investigate an effect on the solution crystallization temperature difference and the cooling capacity of the absorption chiller by a solution cooler in the absorber. The cooling capacity of the absorption chiller can be higher, with the enhanced performance of the solution heat exchangers. But, because the solution crystallization temperature difference becomes smaller at the absorber inlet, the heat capacity of the solution heat exchangers might be limited by the danger of crystallization, which can cause the serious damages. In this paper, the heat capacity ratio of the solution cooler is defined as the ratio of the heat capacity of the solution cooler to that of the absorber. If it becomes larger in the additional type solution cooler, the solution crystallization temperature difference is augmented and the cooling capacity is also increased.

Exhaust gas recirculation is the well-known and widely used NOx reduction technology for diesel engines. More effective EGR cooler has been developed and applied to diesel engines to meet the reinforced emission regulation. However, the contaminated EGR cooler by diesel exhaust gas reduces the performance of the engine and NOx reduction rate. The buildup of deposits in EGR coolers cause significant degradation in heat transfer performance, often on the order of 20~30%. Deposits also increase pressure drop across coolers and thus may degrade engine efficiency under some operation conditions. In this study, as a solution for this problem, DOC assisted EGR cooler is designed and then investigated to reduce fouling and its impact on cooler performance. A single channel EGR cooler fouling test apparatus and soot particle generator were developed to represent the real EGR cooler and exhaust gas of diesel engine. EGR cooler effectiveness of the case with catalyst of pt 30g/ft3 decreased just up to 5%. This value was 45% less compared to the case without catalyst which decreased up to 9% after 10hours experiments.

The EGR system is one of important components in diesel engine. The regulation on NOx emission has been tightened up. Therefore, it is a significant issue to develop and commercialize the high efficient EGR cooler system that reduces NOx emission in DI diesel engine. Key performance factor of the EGR cooler system is how to properly design both wavy cooling fins and gas tubes. This paper proposes a high efficient EGR cooler that has been upgraded with both the optimized wavy cooling fins and the improved shape of structure. The evaluation of the heat exchange efficiency, outlet temperature, and gas pressure drop of the EGR cooler is performed with the prototype of the proposed EGR cooler. The result shows a good solution and will be implemented to the model of a clean diesel engine being developed for both domestic and overseas market.

Ren et al. analyzed the performance of the indirect evaporative cooler according to the direction of the flow considering evaporation water flow and wetness. However the effect of NTU of each channel on the performance of the indirect evaporative cooler according to the direction of the flow was not analyzed exactly. In this study the effect of the direction of the flow on the Indirect evaporative cooling performance changing NTU of each channel are investigated theoretically. The cooling process of the indirect evaporative cooler by flow direction is modeled into a set of linear differential equations and solved to obtain the exact solutions to the temperatures of the hot fluid, the moist air, and evaporation water. Based on the exact solution in the case of different NTU of each channel, we study the change of the distribution of the temperature according to each flow direction and at the same time analyze the effect of the flow direction on the cooling performance.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to develop long-term storage technology for Chinese cabbage in order to extend the period of availability of freshly harvested products. The scope of the paper deals with the use of a cooler with a remote monitoring and control interface in conjunction with use of packaging film. Methods: A cooler with a real time monitoring system was designed as a low-temperature storage facility to control temperature and relative humidity (RH). The effects of storage in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic boxes, 3% chitosan dipping solution, polypropylene film (PEF) with perforations, and mesh packaging bags on physiological responses were investigated. The optimal storage temperature and humidity for 120 days were below $0.5^{\circ}C$ and 90%, respectively. Physiological and biochemical features of cabbage quality were also analyzed: weight loss, texture, and sugar salinity, chlorophyll, reducing sugar, and vitamin C contents. Results: The cooler with a remote monitoring and control interface could be operated by an HMI program. A $0.5^{\circ}C$ temperature and 90% humidity could be remotely controlled within the cooler for 120 days. Postharvest freshness of Chinese cabbages could be maintained up to 120 days depending on the packaging method and operation of the remote monitoring system. In particular, wrapping the cabbages in PEF with perforations resulted in a less than a 5% deterioration in quality. This study provides evidence for efficient performance of plastic films in minimizing post-harvest deterioration and maintaining overall quality of cabbages stored under precise low-temperature conditions with remote monitoring and a control interface. Conclusions: Packaging with a modified plastic film and storage in a precisely controlled cooler with a remote monitoring and control interface could slow down the physiological factors that cause adverse quality changes and thereby increase the shelf life of Chinese cabbage.

본 논문에서는 군용 냉각형 열상장비의 중요한 부품인 냉각기의 MTTF를 개선하기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 일반적인 전자장비는 전자소자의 특성으로 인해 온도, 습도 등 환경요인에 의해 고장발생 가능성이 높다. 그러나 일부 군용과 같이 특수목적용의 장비(열상장비 등)들은 다양한 환경요인들에 노출되어 운용하기 때문에 환경요인을 극복할 수 있도록 설계한다. 다양한 군용 장비 중 지속적으로 사용가능 해야 하는 장비 중 가장 널리 사용되는 장비로 열상장비를 꼽을 수 있다. 특히 화질을 우선시하는 군용의 특성상 냉각형 열상장비를 많이 사용한다. 이러한 군용 냉각형 열상장비는 항시 운용 가능해야 하기 때문에 MTTF는 장비의 중요한 파라미터다. 군용 냉각형 열상장비의 MTTF에 가장 중요한 영향을 미치는 부분은 냉각기 부분이다. 냉각기의 MTTF는 장비 내부 열과 연관이 있으며 열을 저하시켜 MTTF를 증가시킬 수 있다. 이를 위해 기존 장비의 내부열에 대한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고 이로부터 개선점을 확인할 수 있었으며 내부 구조를 개선하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 개선방법의 효과는 시뮬레이션 및 MTTF계산을 통해 확인한다.

Interruption of good fluidization in a fluidized bed ash cooler(FBAC) for discharging bed materials such as sand or coal ash particles from the CFB combustor is frequently happened because of agglomeration of the particles in the bed. This unstable operation may, in the worst case, result in an unscheduled boiler shut down. In this study, we examined the operation problems of the FBAC of Tonghae CFB boiler and studied and introduced the simple detection and solution techniques with analyzing the mixing property and the occurrence of defluidization in a simulated fluidized bed ash cooler system (0.5m-H x 0.5m-W x 1.0m-L). The bridge of the large particles at the bed surface could be observed, and this caused to form the defluidization area at the entrance of the FBAC. The defluidization was affected not only by airflow rates but also by the particles discharging rates as well as particle size distribution in the FBAC. The local defluidization could be detected by analysis of the accumulated standard deviation error at a given period of time. Also, the regulation of the overall or local airflow rate made clearing up the local defluidization possible.

This study was initiated to evaluate the cooling performance of CAC (charged air cooler) and radiator in the engine room of a mini bus. So we had firstly to predict the mass flow rate coming from radiator grille and front bum per opening using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation based on 3D configuration. And simulations were carried out for different cooling module layout and bum per opening hole size on sam e vehicle operating condition. Simulation results show that CAC cooling performance at reverse protecting plate-applying model was much efficient than that of the bum per opening hole size-increasing model in IMTD point of view. Part of the CFD simulation results was com pared to with experimental data. It was confirm ed that the CFD approach using STAR-CD based on pursuing no-com promise solution could provide design engineers with useful design information in the early design stage of vehicle development.

Stainless steel EGR cooler of diesel engine is widely used to prevent the corrosion due to the content of sulfur in diesel fuel. The strength of brazed joint between stainless steel materials is very important. It is essential to observe the spreading ratio of the filler metals under the condition of deoxidation or vacuum during heating process. In this experiment, spreading ratio was tested to find the optimum brazing condition for stainless steel using brazing filler metals of FP-613, BNi-2 and BNi-5 on sus304 and sus410. Anti-corrosion tests were also performed on the above filler metals with solution of 5% $H_2SO_4$, 65% $HNO_3$ and 5% $NH_4OH$. Consequently FP-613 has good ability for anti-corrosion with 30% of chromium content compared with other filler metals. The optimum brazing conditions are occurred at $960^{\circ}C$ for 90 min. and at $1090^{\circ}C$ for 50 min. at the same degree of vacuum, $2{\sim}3{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr.

We have analyzed times of minima for of 6 binary systems. Three binary systems show period decrease at rate $3.19{\times}10-5$ yr -1 for SV Cen, $1.35{\times}10-7$ yr -1 for RT Scl and $1.14{\times}10-7$ yr -1 for AD Phe. Two systems show period increase $5.696{\times}10-8$ yr -1 for SX Aur and $6.93{\times}10-8$ yr -1 for GO Cyg. One system shows cyclic period variation. We estimated the mass transfer rate for 5 binary systems. Four systems show asymmetric light curves. Two asymmetric light curves (SV Cen and RT Scl) are due to hot spot caused by mass transfer. And two asymmetric light curves (AD Phe and TY Boo) are due to cool spot caused by magnetic activities on the cooler component. We also obtain absolute dimensions from photometric solution and spectroscopic solution by analyzing their light curves and radial velocity curves, which are collected from literatures, using 2007 version Wilson and Deviney computer code.
