The purpose of the present work is to investigate the influence of the refrigerant adulteration by LiBr solution on the cooling capacity and COP for three different types of abso게tion chillers: a single-effect type, a series-flow double-effect type and a parallel-flow with double-effect type. A simulation program has been prepared for the cyclic analysis of absorption chillers. With some assumptions, the calculations have been performed by solving the mass balance equation, energy balance equation and the state equation simultaneously. The range of the LiBr concentration of refrigerant was 0% to 20% in the present study. For the single-effect absorption chiller, the maximum decrease in the cooling capacity was 10% at the 20% of LiBr concentration. For the double-effect chiller, the capacity was decreased by 11.1% for the parallel-flow type and the series-flow type. Also, the COP was reduced by 3.0% in single-effect, 2.8% in series-flow type (SR=0.4) and 2.3% in parallel-flow type.

In this paper, cycle performance analysis for cooling capacity, compression work and COP of R744($CO_2$) transcritical vapor compression refrigeration system is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of the system. The operating parameters considered in this study include superheating degree, outlet temperature of gas cooler and evaporating temperature in the R744 vapor compression cycle. The main results were summarized as follows : The cooling capacity of R744 increases with superheating degree, but decreases with the increasing evaporating temperature and outlet temperature of gas cooler. The compression work increases with superheating degree and cooling pressure of R744, but decreases with the increasing evaporating temperature. And, The COP increases with outlet temperature and evaporating temperature of R744 gas cooler, but decreases with the increasing superheating degree. Therefore, superheating degree, outlet temperature and evaporating temperature of R744 vapor compression refrigeration system have an effect on the cooling capacity, compression work and COP of this system. With a thorough grasp of these effect, it is necessary to design the compression refrigeration cycle using R744.

For performance improvement and compactness, usage of enhanced tube is inevitable. However, studies on enhanced tubes for generator is very limited. In this study, pool boiling tests were conducted for 7 heat transfer tubes. Test range covered pressure 7.38~101.3 kPa and heat flux $20{\sim}40kW/m^2$. Results show that boiling heat transfer coefficient increases as pressure or heat flux increases. Under atmospheric condition, high heat transfer coefficients were obtained for notched fin and low fin tubes(225% and 202% of the 19.0 mm smooth tube, which yielded the lowest heat transfer coefficient). As pressure decreased, high heat transfer coefficients were obtained for a low fin tube(290% and 288% of the 19.0 mm smooth tube at 12.34 and 7.38 kPa).

The objective of an echo canceller connected to any end of a communication line such as digital subscriber line (DSL) is to compensate the outgoing transmit signal in the receiving path that the hybrid circuit leaks. The echo canceller working in a full duplex environment is an adaptive system driven by the local signal. Conventional echo canceller that implement the least mean square (LMS) algorithm provides a low computational burden but poor convergence properties. The length of the echo canceller will directly affect both the degree of performance and the convergence speed of the adaptation process. To cancel long time-varying echoes, the number of tap coefficients of a conventional echo canceller must be large, which decreases the convergence speed of the adaptive filter. This paper proposes an alternative technique for the echo cancellation in a telecommunication channel. The new technique employs the bi-directional least mean square (LMS) algorithm for adaptively computing the optimal set of the coefficients of the echo canceller, which is composed of weighted combination of both feedforward and feedback algorithms. Finally, Simulation results as well as mathematical analysis demonstrates that the proposed echo canceller has faster convergence speed than the conventional LMS echo canceller with nearly equivalent complexity of computation.

Acoustic design parameters of a half-wave resonator are studied experimentally for acoustic stability in a model combustor. According to standard acoustic-test procedures, acoustic-pressure signals are measured. Quantitative acoustic properties of damping factor and sound absorption coefficient are evaluated and thereby, the acoustic damping capacity of the resonator is characterized. The diameter and the number of a half-wave resonator, its distribution are selected as design parameters for optimal tuning of the resonator. Acoustic damping capacity increases as the resonators with diameter increases. The optimum number of resonators or the optimum open-area ratio decreases as boundary absorption decreases.

The objective of this study is to investigate the heat transfer characteristics of evaporators that have various fin configurations and are used in household refrigerators. The frosting and defrosting characteristics of a spirally coiled circular fin-tube evaporator, a discrete-plate fin-tube evaporator, and a continuous-plate fin-tube evaporator were measured and compared. Under non-frosting conditions, the heat transfer coefficient of the spirally coiled circular fin-tube evaporator was 22.3% and 40.2% higher than the coefficients of the discrete- and continuous-plate fin-tube evaporators, respectively. Under frosting conditions, the heat transfer coefficient of the spirally coiled circular fin-tube evaporator was 27.0% and 46.3% higher than the coefficients of the discrete- and continuous-plate fin-tube evaporators, respectively. In addition, the defrosting water amount of the spirally coiled circular fin-tube evaporator was 3.2% and 9.4% lower than the amounts in the case of the discrete- and continuous-plate fin-tube evaporators, respectively.

The objectives of this study were to develop a new commercial grain cooler suited to domestic weather and post-harvesting conditions for paddy, and to evaluate the performance. A prototype grain cooler capable of cooling paddy of 200 tons within 24 hours was developed. The grain cooler was designed to control the refrigeration capacity from 0 to 100% by controlling the capacity of compressor with unloading solenoid valve and by changing the flow rates of hot refrigerant gas flowing into reheater and evaporator from compressor. And a controller with one chip microprocessor was developed to control temperature and relative humidity of cooling air. The maximum cooling capacity of the grain cooler was 35,284㎉/hr at condensing/evaporating pressure of 16.5/3.6 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Maximum flow rate of cooling air was 120 ㎥/min at static pressure of 279 mmAq. The total maximum required power was 22.8㎾, and total required energy was saved from 26.7 to 33.3% of maximum power depending on operating conditions. The coefficient of performance of refrigeration devices and total coefficient of performance of the grain cooler were 4.71 and 1.8, respectively.

In the earth telescope for space observation, the adaptive optical (AO) system that immediately compensates atmospheric turbulence is helpful to get high-resolution images. An adaptive optics for earth telescopes is very attractive, since the Earth telescopes can be made at lower costs and have larger optical apertures than space telescopes. Generally. in order to remove the wavefront error produced by atmospheric turbulence, a deformable mirror, whose surface shape changes in a controllable way in response to a drive signal, is used. The characteristics and patterns of actuators are very important for the effective control of a deformable mirror. The mirror surface shape deformed by one actuator is defined as an influence function and the deformable mirror can be effectively modeled and designed using this influence function. In this paper. by simplifying the actual influence function obtained by FEM analyses into the Gaussian function and introducing the coupling coefficient between actuators, the influence function is constructed. The proper coupling coefficient of the target system can be obtained by performance analyses of a deformable mirror for various coupling coefficients. Using the constructed influence function, the deformable mirror with equally spaced triangular and square actuator patterns is analyzed for various spacings and an effective actuator pattern is proposed.

In this study, we experimentally investigate the performance characteristics of a high-performance summer-cooling heat pump for an R410A by applying an air-cooled-type vapor-injection (VI) cycle. The devices used for the experiment consist of a VI compressor, condenser, oil separator, plate-type heat-exchanger, economizer, evaporator, and re-cooler. The experimental conditions employed for the cooling performance were divided into three cycles. First, in Cycle A, we apply a VI cycle and with no heat exchange between the evaporator outlet refrigerant and the VI cycle suction refrigerant in the re-cooler. For Cycle B, there is heat exchange, and for Cycle C, there is neither a VI cycle nor heat exchange between the evaporator outlet refrigerant and the VI cycle suction refrigerant. From the analysis results, we observe that the performance was highest in the VI cycle with heat exchange between the evaporator outlet refrigerant and the VI cycle suction refrigerant (Cycle B), while it was lowest in Cycle C without application of the VI cycle. Moreover, the cooling coefficient of Performance ($COP_C$) averaged 3.5 in Cycle B, which was 8.6% higher than the corresponding value in Cycle A, and 33% higher than that in Cycle C.
