Computer simulation was conducted to study performance characteristics of air-cooled condenser of a double effect absorption heat pump with variations of saturation pressures and mass flow rates of the refrigerant ; volume flow rates, relative humidities and temperatures of the air The vertically installed condenser had the staggered tube array with continuous plate fins of wavy type. When the saturation pressure of the condenser was decreased from 760 torr to 20 torr, heat transfer rates and condensing rates of refrigerant were decreased. If excess refrigerant flows in the condenser, the pressure and saturation temperature of the condenser were increased which makes the refrigerating capacity of an absorption heat pump reduced.

This paper describes a theoretical analysis and experimental verification on the performances of a vacuum-compatible air bearing, which is designed with a cascaded exhaust scheme to minimize the air leakage in a vacuum environment. The design of the vacuum-compatible air bearing equipped with the differential exhaust system requires great care because several design parameters, such as the number of exhaust stages, diameter of exhaust tube, pumping speed of a vacuum pump, and bearing clearance greatly influence the air leakage and thus degree of vacuum. In this study, a performance analysis method was proposed to estimate the performances of the air bearing, such as load capacity, stiffness, and air leakage. Results indicate that the load capacity and stiffness of the air bearing was improved as its boundary pressure, which was determined by the $1^{st}$ exhaust method, was lowered, and the dominant factors on the chamber's degree of vacuum were the number of exhaust stages, exhaust tube diameter and bearing clearance. A vacuum chamber and air bearing stage using porous pad were fabricated to verify the theoretical analysis. The results demonstrate that chamber pressure up to an order of $10^{-3}$ Pa was achieved with the air bearing stage operating inside the chamber, and this analysis method was valid by comparing predicted values with experimental data, for the mass flow rates from the porous pad, and pressures at each exhaust port and chamber, respectively.

To start with, finding a sustainable method to produce sweet water and electricity by using renewable energies is one of the most important issues at this time. So, experimental and theoretical analysis of the performance of a closed solar powered still, which is jointed to photovoltaic cells and vacuum pump and equipped by nano plate, as the principle stage of zero discharge desalination process is investigated in this project. Major goal of this work is to reuse the concentrated brine of the Mobin petrochemical complex in order to produce potable, sweet water from effluent saline wastewater and generating electricity in the same time by using solar energy instead of discharging them to the environment. It is observed the increase in brackish water temperature increases the average daily production of solar desalination still considerably. Therefore, the nano plate and vacuum pump are added to augment the evaporation rate. The insolation rate, evaporation rate, the average brackish temperature, ambient temperature, density are investigated during a year 2013. In addition to obtain the capacity of solar powered still, the highest and lowest amount of water and electricity generation are reported during a twelvemonth (2013). Results indicate the average daily production is increased 16%, which represents 7.78 kW.h energy saving comparing with traditional solar still.

Standard ginseng seedling, selected after one year's rearing in the seedling bed has been conventionally transplanted in Korea. Recently, the direct seeding areas have been increasing to product high quality ginsengs for red-ginseng processing. Reciprocating push-rod brush, holed-roller and vacuum suction seeders, planting with 30 ${\times}$ 30mm spacings and adjustable to the folds were designed and theirs performances were evaluated. The developed three types of seeders reliably performed at the success rate over 95% with less than 10% in slip rate, and could be used a seeder for the greater spacings by adjusting metering parts. The research concluded that the vacuum suction seeder was the most feasible and practical with the greatest metering success and the least slip among three type seeders of the reciprocating push-rod brush, holed-roller and vacuum suction seeders. The vacuum suction seeder holds a seed with each needle nozzle using the negative pressure created by a vacuum pump. The capacity was 24.5 times greater than a man power at the speed of 5 m/min.

Sub-Kelvin cooling has been generally demanded for the fields of low temperature physics, such as physical property measurements, astronomical detection, and quantum computing. The refrigeration system with a small size can be appropriately introduced when the measurement system does not require a high cooling capacity at sub-Kelvin temperature. The dilution refrigerator which is a common method to reach sub-Kelvin, however, must possess a large ³He circulation equipment at room temperature. As alternatives, a sorption refrigerator and a magnetic refrigerator can be adopted for sub-Kelvin cooling. This paper describes those coolers which have been developed by various research groups. Furthermore, a cold-cycle dilution refrigerator of which the size of the ³He circulation system is minimized, is also introduced. Subsequently, a new concept of dilution refrigerator is proposed by our group. The suggested cooler can achieve sub-Kelvin temperature with a small size since it does not require any recuperator and turbo-molecular vacuum pump. Its architecture allows the compact configuration to reach sub-Kelvin temperature by integrating the sorption pump and the magnetic refrigerators. Therefore, it may be suitably utilized in the low temperature experiments requiring low cooling capacity.

최근 환경 규제 정책 강화에 따른 입지 제약발생으로 발전소 부지가 높아지고 냉각수 관로의 길이가 증가되어 냉각수 계통 내 수격현상이 심화된다. 이는 발전소 안정성에 심각한 영향을 주게 된다. 본 연구에서는 수두가 높은 1,000 MW급 대용량 석탄화력발전소 냉각수계통에 대한 안정성을 확보하고자 비정상상태 1차원 해석 상용 소프트웨어인 LIQT 7.2을 사용하여 과도현상을 분석하고, 수격현상을 저감하기 위해 수격방지장치를 개별 및 조합 적용하여 성능특성에 대한 효과를 예측하였다. 수격방지 장치를 설치하지 않고 펌프가 불시 정지되었을 경우 발생하는 냉각수 서지압력은 펌프 출구 측에서 가장 크게 나타났다. 이러한 냉각수계통의 서지압력을 저감시키는 가장 효과적이고 간단한 방법은 펌프 보호를 위해 필수적 장치인 유압구동역류방지밸브에 진공파괴밸브를 조합한 것이다.

본 연구는 2012년도에 제정된 원심펌프 기준에 바탕을 둔 소방자동차용 소방펌프의 성능 인정 기준에 각종 초고층 건물의 화재 및 대형화재에 대비하기 위한 고압 및 대용량의 방수 능력을 가진 용적형 펌프의 인정기준 추가에 관한 내용이다. 용적형 펌프의 실험을 바탕으로 V-1, 2, 3급의 3가지에 대한 성능에 대하여 인정기준을 제정하였으며 펌프의 효율은 원심펌프형과 동일한 65% 이상의 성능을 요구하는 인정기준이 포함 되었다. 방수압력은 1.5 MPa~2.5MPa 사이의 값을 유량은 최소 $0.31m^3/min$에서 최대 $3.0m^3/min$의 방수량의 성능을 요구하는 것으로 제정되었다. 또한, 구조적으로 체절압력을 조절해야하는 용적형 펌프 특성상 릴리이프 밸브에 대한 부분이 추가되었으며 이물질로 인한 펌프 내부의 파손을 방지하기 위한 스트레이너 설치 및 진공펌프 없이 작동하는 용적형 펌프와 원심펌프와의 차이점을 포함하고 있다. 이와같은 용적형 펌프의 인정기준 부분 추가로 인하여 초고층 빌딩 및 대형화재에서의 화재진압에 있어서 보다 다양한 화재 진압용 소방 장비의 선택과 능동적인 대응을 할 수 있을 것으로 기대되며, 이와같은 인정기준은 2016년 1월 제정되었다.

The sub-cooled nitrogen cooling system at 65 K with GM cryo-cooler is developed for cooling down the DC reactor of 6.6 ㎸-200 A class HTS Fault Current Limiter(SFCL). The sub-cooled nitrogen cooling is more economic than saturated nitrogen cooling, because the length of HTS wire is reduced in the same capacity, as well as, more stable. The cooling system with the GM cryo-cooler installed on the cryostat is not only compact but also efficient for energy saving. In the nitrogen vessel, after evacuating with vacuum pump to saturated nitrogen at 65 K, sub-cooled nitrogen at 65 K is made by putting in gas helium to 1 atm. During the short circuit test occurring the fault current of 1000 A, the sub-cooled nitrogen cooled DC reactor for SFCL is kept the state of sub-cooled nitrogen at 65 K.

Functional residual capacity (FRC) is an important diagnostic parameter measured using $N_{2}$ analyzer. Since $N_{2}$ analyzer is expensive as well as cumbersome for use of noisy vacuum pump, the FRC measurement becomes possible only in large well-equipped hospitals. The present study introduced a new $TN_{2}$ wash-out technique to measure FRC by $O_{2}/CO_{2}$ analysis, which is relatively cheaper and much simpler to apply. Slower $O_{2}$ response was compensated for high frequency to be coincided with $CO_{2}$ response, thereby enabled indirect, but accurate $N_{2}$ concentration measurement. FRC was estimated by continuous integration of expired $N_{2}$ volume obtained with air flow signal. Experiment with 3 L syringe, a standard calibration device recommended by the American Thoracic Society, demonstrated less than 1% error at 0, 1, and 2 L. Correlation coefficient was almost ideal, guaranteeing linear estimation of FRC. The present technique is inexpensive and simple to apply, thus should he of great convenience.
