In this study, a test system which can test performance of curling pad was developed to support Korea curling team. The developed system consists of a water tank, a mechanical pad driving system that can perform sweeping movement using a curling pad on surface of ice made by the water tank, and temperature sensors monitoring ice and air temperatures. To control the temperature of ice and humidity/temperature of air around the ice, all system are installed in a chamber that can isolate the developed system from external environment. Eight kinds of curling pads were tested using the developed system. Test result showed that each curling pad revealed different rate of ice temperature increasing. The pad with the highest rate of ice temperature rising was found to be the same as the most preferred pad by the athletes. Therefore, it was confirmed that the method of measuring change of ice temperature by the sweeping performed in this study is an effective method to test the performance of the pad.

The operating thermal chracteristics of direct contact liquid-ice heat exchanger was experimentally investigated. In this paper, The effects of Ice Packing Factor(IPF), the inlet temperature and the flow rate of Heat Transfer Fluid(HTF) were stuided in the liquid-ice heat exchanger. Thermal stratification in liquid-ice heat exchanger was established clearly and faster at the higher inlet temperature and flow rate of HTF. At the end of melting of the lower flow rate is cleared the thermal stratification in liquid-ice heat exchanger. The temperature stratification is long with higher value of IPF of liquid-ice heat exchanger. The mean temperature of liquid-ice storage was changed rapidly with increasing flow rate and inlet temperature of HTF. The gradiant of ratio of total energy to latent energy was found higher with increasing inlet temperature and flow rate.

Effect of fluctuation range and intervals of defrosting temperature on quality of frozen foods stored in a domestic refrigerator equipped with an automatic defrost system was evaluated. As defrost system was operated, temperatures of domestic refrigerators were elevated from $-18^{\circ}C\;to\;-5^{\circ}C\;and\;-15^{\circ}C$, and fluctuation intervals were l6 hrs and 30 hrs, respectively. Quality deterioration such as protein denaturation, vitamin loss, exudate production and changes in appearance of frozen foods was minimized by reducing temperature oscillation during storage. Considerable effects of thermal oscillation on ice crystal sizes were observed for frozen beef tissue and ice cream. TTI (time temperature indicator) system also proved that the temperature control of defrost system in domestic refrigerator can improve the quality of foods during storage.

In this paper, the operating thermal characterictics of liquid-ice was expeimentally investigated in an adiabatic and a non-adiabatic direct contact liquid-ice heat exchanger. Experiments were carried out varing inlet temperature, Ice Packing Factor, and the flow rate of heat transfer fluid. The higher inlet temperature and the more much inlet flow rate, thermal stratification in liquid-ice heat exchanger was established faster. In the case of adiabatic ice storage tank, temperature distribution was a little higher at all conditions than that of non-adiabatic one. The ratio of latent energy to total discharge energy($E_{\lambda}/E_[tot}$) was about 80%, and the discharge of latent heat energy was appeared rapidly as inlet temperature and flow rate were higher.

현재 진행되고 있다고 여겨지는 지구변화 (Global Change)의 연구는 환경/지구과학의 초미의 관심사로 떠오르고 있다. 특히 온실가스의 분출로 인한 지구 온난화 (Global Warming)는 지구환경에 부정적인 효과가 초래될 것으로 우려되는바, 여러 지구환경 인자들의 변화를 초래할 것으로 예측되고 있다. 가장 직접적인 인자는 대기온도이고 아울러 해수온도/해류, 바람속도/방향, 대기화학 조성, 식생분포, 구름량, 얼음분포 등이 간접적인 인자들이다. 본 연구에서는 EOS 위성군 중 고층대기 연구를 위한 UARS 위성의 HRDI 센서의 자료를 분석하였다. HRDI는 대기성분 중 산소 $O_2$ 발광선의 도플러 변이를 측정하여 바람속도를 측정한다. 이 자료의 분석을 통하여 50~100 km 상공의 바람속도 변화를 지상에서의 OH 발광선 관측치와 비교하였다. 본 연구는 초기 연구로서 정략적이고 보편적인 결과 도출보다는 향후 연구를 위한 기반연구로서의 성격을 갖는다. 지구온난화는 대기의 온도를 상승시키고, 이는 대기 중 에너지의 증가를 불러와 필연적으로 고층대기의 교란 현상이 있을 것으로 예상된다. 앞으로 지구전체 대기의 풍속/풍향의 고도변화가 분석되면 지구온난화에 의한 고층대기 변화가 탐지될 것으로 기대된다.

Background:Liquid nitrogen freezing techniques have already met with widespread success in biology and medicine as a means of long-term storage for cells and tissues. The use of cryoprotectants such as glycerol and dimethylsulphoxide to prevent ice crystal formation, with carefully controlled rates of freezing and thawing, allows both structure and viability to be retained almost indefinitely. Cryopreservation of various tissues has various con-trolled rates of freezing. Material and Method: To find the optimal freezing curve and the chamber temperature, we approached the thermodynamic calculation of tissues in two ways. One is the direct calculation method. We should know the thermophysical characteristics of all components, latent heat of fusion, area, density and volume, etc. This kind of calculation is so sophisticated and some variables may not be determined. The other is the indirect calculation method. We performed the tissue freezing with already used freezing curve and we observed the actual freezing curve of that tissue. And we modified the freezing curve with several steps of calculation, polynomial regression analysis, time constant calculation, thermal response calculation and inverse calculation of chamber temperature. Result: We applied that freezing program on mesenchymal stem cell, chondrocyte, and osteoblast. The tissue temperature decreased according to the ideal freezing curve without temperature rising. We did not find any differences in survival. The reason is postulated to be that freezing material is too small and contains cellular components. We expect the significant difference in cellular viability if the freezing curve is applied on a large scale of tissues. Conclusion: This program would be helpful in finding the chamber temperature for the ideal freezing curie easily.

This study presents experimental results of heat transfer characteristics of P.C.M. during outward melting process in a vertical cylinder. The experiment was carried out in six conditions, i. e., three different inlet temperature($7^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C\;and\;1^{\circ}C$) and two directions of working fluid(upward and downward). Melting P.C.M. produced a bell-shaped phase change interface. When the inlet temperature was $7^{\circ}C$, the lower region remained at $4^{\circ}C$ until the temperature of upper region reached $4^{\circ}C$. This was due to the state of maximum density of the lower region. When the direction of the working fluid in the case of $7^{\circ}C$, inlet temperature, was upward, the rate of melting and the total melting energy were higher than when it's direction was downward. But the rate of melting and the total melting energy appeared higher value as it's direction was downward when the inlet temperature is $4^{\circ}C$ and $1^{\circ}C$.

The ground in cold region consists of active and permafrost layers. The active layer at the unstable state may cause ground corrosion and uplift, when the temperature of frozen ground increases due to seasonal changes. The thermosyphon is one of the stabilization methods to maintain the ground stability in the frozen ground. The thermosyphon is a closed two-phase convection device that extracts heat from the ground and discharges it into the atmosphere. In this study, ground freezing experiment using a thermosyphon and simulated ground with the isolation material was conducted to evaluate the thermal performance of the thermosyphon. In order to consider the thermal performance of the thermosyphon, commercial numerical program (TEMP/W) was adopted. Likewise, the thermal performance of thermosyphon and thermal properties of ground were applied in the numerical model. In a series of comparisons with experiment results and numerical study, thermal performance of thermosyphon can be evaluated.

Methane (CH₄) is a key greenhouse gas in the atmosphere with 85 times greater greenhouse potent relative to carbon dioxide (CO₂). The atmospheric concentration of CH₄ is rapidly increasing due to the intensive usage of CH₄ and the thawing of the cryosphere. Additionally, with the current warming of ocean water, the dissociation of gas hydrates, an ice-like compound and the largest reservoir of CH₄ on Earth, is expected to occur, resulting in the release of CH₄ from the seafloor into the overlying water and atmosphere. Moreover, bottom water hypoxia is another concern that potentially introduces greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. With ongoing global warming and eutrophication, the size and duration of bottom water hypoxia are rapidly increasing. These low-oxygen conditions would relocate the redox zone shallower in sediment or in the water column, causing the release of CH₄ into the atmosphere and thereby intensifying global warming. However, there exists a gap in the understanding of CH₄ dynamics including its generation in relation to bottom water hypoxia. Therefore, this review article aims to understand the relationship between CH₄ and bottom water hypoxia and to draw attention to CH₄ investigation in Korea.
