A datacenter is a high energy consuming facility whose cooling energy consumption rate is 10~20 times larger than general office buildings. The higher the temperature of supply air from a CRAC (computer room air-conditioner) is supplied, the more energy efficient cooling is possible because of improving the COP of a chiller and advanced range of outdoor air temperature available for the economizer cycles. However, because the temperature of cold air flowing into server computers varies depending on air mixing configurations in a computer room, the proper supply air temperature must be considered based on the investigation of air mixing and heat dissipation. By these, this study aims to understand the effects of variation of the supply air temperature on the air flow distributions, temperature distributions and rack cooling efficiencies. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) aided in conducting the investigation. As a result, the variation of the supply air temperature does not affect the air flow distributions. However, it mainly affects the temperature distribution. From the results of CFD simulations, Rack cooling indices (RCIHI and RCILO) were evaluated and showed the ideal state set at $19^{\circ}C$ of the supply air temperature.

Research was conducted to obtain t he optimum treatment Of sodium hypochlorite(NaOC I) at various temperatures in t he seed scarification for stimulating germination of zoysiagrass (Zocysia Japonica Steud ) seed. Morphological changes of seed coat were also examined by scanning electron micros cop(SEM). l. Differences in temperature of scarification with 2 .4% NaOCI showed little influence on promoting germination of seeds but seeds treated with 1% solution at l5˚C germinated less than that of higher temperatures. The promotion effect of 4% solution on germination was diminished when seeds were treated for 8 hours of more. The most favorable seed scarification unaffected hy temperature for enhancing germination was 4-6hours treatment at 4% solution in fresh seeds. 2. $GA_3$, treatment did not enhance germination of water-pretreated control seeds hut germination of seeds pretreated with NaOCI l was increased additional 10% or more hy$ GA_3$, Water pretreated control seeds treated with 50 mM hydrogen peroxide(H'O )germinated about 44%. In NaOCI treated seeds. $H_2$$O_2$ treatment increased germination additional l 0% or more. 3. NaOCI l and KOH treatment softened the seed coat and formed the pores hy removing the scab-like thikenings attached to the seed surface. These results suggest that the modes of action of NaOCl in the promotion of seed germination reside in it increase of the permeability of the seed coat, and in the provision of additional oxygen to the seed.

지구환경 보존 및 화석연료의 고갈에 대한 대책으로 미활용 에너지원에 대한 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 관점에서 지하철에서 배기되는 공기를 공기열원 히트펌프의 열원으로 이용할 수 있는가를 알아보기 위해 서울 지하철 5호선 Y역을 대상역으로 선정하여 터널내의 공기온도, 배열량을 시뮬레이션하였다. 이 배열량을 난방용 열원으로 히트펌프에 이용했을 경우 전력소비량과 대기를 직접 이용하는 히트펌프의 전력소비량을 계산하여 에너지 절약량을 검토하였으며, 여름철 냉방 유무 및 환기시간에 따른 터널내 온열환경을 파악하였다.

Micro gas turbine (MGT) has received attention recently as a small-scale distributed power source. Due to many advantages such as their small size, low maintenance cost and minimal vibrations during operation, they are expected to become widespread in a wide range of applications. The exhaust heat emitted by the MGT is in the form of an exhaust gas that is about $270^{\circ}C$ which is an extremely clean gas. Korea Gas Corporation (KOGAS) has researched performance characteristics of a cogeneration system combining 28kW class MGT and 13 USRT class absorption hot and chilled water generator in the local condition. The present results of this study can be summarized as follows: (1) in heating mode, the total efficiency of cogen. system is about $65\%$ and heating capacity is 33kW at 25kW MGP power (2) in cooling mode, COP is about 0.6 at 22kW MGT power.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the performance characteristics of a $CO_2$ cooling and water heating system using a twin-rotary compressor with the compression volume ratio of 0.6. The cooling performances of the $CO_2$ heat pump were measured and analyzed with the variations of charge amount, EEV opening, and compressor frequency. In addition, the performance of the combined system including cooling and water heating was also measured and analyzed by varying inlet temperature of the EEV. As a result, the optimal normalized charge and cooling COP in the cooling mode were 0.307 and 2.06, respectively. The application of the water heating into the $CO_2$ heat pump improved the cooling performance over 78% and decreased the EEV inlet temperature by $8^{\circ}C$, which can increase system reliability.

This paper represents a method of existing building energy simulation using energy audit data. Energy audit must be carried out for reasonable analysis, because characteristics of existing buildings such as efficiency of fan, pump, flow rate, pressure, COP and operating schedule could be changed during the building operation. These building characteristics should be measured to estimate actual energy consumption of the existing building. In this study, we conducted energy audit and calculated energy savings for a 7-stories building as a case-study. The energy audit data were used to calibrate the building model of EnergyPlus simulation. Baseline model validated according to M&V guideline index. As a result, building characteristics are significant parameters making a big impact on energy savings in existing buildings.

Thermal performance of a SAAHPS (Solar and Ambient-air-assisted Heat Pump System) located in KIER is simulated with TRNSYS 14.2. The SAAHPS is composed of dual evaorators, each of which is used as a solar fluid heat source and an air fluid heat source. Polynomial coefficients data for the SAAHPS is supplied with Frigosoft, a program widely used for heat pump modeling. In general, collector area and storage volume are 2 key parameters in SAAHPS thermal performance. A parametric study is performed in this study to assess sensitivity of collector area and storage volume in SAAHPS. We concluded that firstly collector area and storage volume are the primary variables in SAAHPS thermal performance, secondly COP of SAAHPS is higher than that of conventional heat pumps. Therefore. collector efficiency can be enhanced swith SAAHPS during a heating season.

The pre-replication complex (pre-RC), including the core hexameric MCM2-7 complex, ensures that the eukaryotic genome is replicated only once per cell division cycle. In this study, we identified a rice $\underline{m}ini\underline{c}hromosome$ $\underline{m}aintenance$ (MCM) homologue (OsMCM2) that functionally complemented fission yeast MCM2 (CDC19) mutants. We found OsMCM2 transcript expression in roots, leaves, and seeds, although expression levels differed slightly among the organs. Likewise, the OsMCM2 protein was ubiquitously expressed, but it was downregulated when nutritients were limiting, indicating that MCM2 expression (and therefore cell cycle progression) requires adequate nutrition. Yeast two-hybrid and GST pull-down assays demonstrated that OsMCM2 interacted with the COP9 signalosome 5 (CSN5). Taken as a whole, our results indicated that OsMCM2 functions as a subunit of the rice MCM complex and interacts with CSN5 during developmental regulation.

In the present study, the cooling performances of the air-conditioner applied the fin-tube and aluminum PF heat exchangers have been experimentally investigated by using the calorimeter. The experiment is carried out in the conditions of the standard temperature and the low temperature. Fin type of PF heat exchanger is a triangler and squarer form. PF heat exchanger has smaller refrigerant weight and larger capacity and COP han the fin-tube heat exchanger. The performance of PF-2 heat exchanger with the squarer in is more excellent than that of PF-1 heat exchanger with the triangler fin. The high pressure of PF heat exchanger decreases about 7%, compared to the fin-tube heat exchanger. Also, CSPF of the fin-tube and PF heat exchanger is evaluated.
