Fluid flow and structural analyses of an electronic expansion valve (EEV) using CO2 as a working refrigerant are carried out to estimate the mass flow rate and maximum stress. An engineering sample EEV that the orifice diameter is 1.8 mm was fabricated. The mass flow rates were measured at various EEV inlet temperatures and pressures for several EEV openings using experimental heat pump system. The sample EEV has over 35 MPa burst pressure and the maximum mass flow rate of CO2 through the EEV increased to 100 g/s at full opening condition.

It has become very important for unused energy to be used for building air conditioning. Economic evaluation on energy system by using river water as a heat source, which is one of the unused energy, was carried out. The floor area of the building and the distance between heat source equipment and river was assumed $50,000m^2$ and 200 m. General heat source system using absorption chiller-heater was used for comparing to the energy saving system, and payback period method using initial cost and running cost of two systems, was used to perform economic evaluation. According to development of high capacity of water source heat pump which is appropriate for using river water, initial cost for the system has been reduced. Payback period was about 3.2 years, and this period might be shortened if nation's economic support enact.

A wind-heat generation system was developed and the system consisted of an electric motor, a heat generation drum, a heat exchanger, two circulation pumps and a water storage tank. The heat generation drum is an essential element determining performance of the system. Frictional heat was generated by rotation of a rotor in the drum filled with a working fluid, and the heat stored in the fluid was used to increase water temperature through the heat exchanger. Effects of some factors such as rotor shape, kind and amount of working fluid, rotor rpm and water flow rate in the heat exchanger, affecting the system performance were investigated. Amounts of heat generated were varied, ranging from 126,000 to 32,760 kJ/hr, depending on combination of the factors. Statistical analysis using GLM procedure revealed that the most influential factor to decide the system performance was amount of the fluid in the drum. Experiments showed that the faster the speed of the rotor, the greater heat was obtained. The greatest efficiency of the heat generation system, electric power consumption rate vs gained heat amount of water, was about 70%. Though the heat amount was not enough for plant bed heating of a 0.1-ha greenhouse, the system would be promising if some supplementary heat source such as air- water heat pump is added.

An inner flow of a porous cylinder with partial slots was visualized to study fluidic phenomena in a solid rocket motor. A high-pressure chamber and an air supply system for high flow rate were used. In order to visualize the inner flow, the smoke generator with a cam-driven pump and heaters and high speed camera were adopted. The results of the cylinder type and the partial slot type were compared. As a result, the injected smoke flow in the partial slot type had circumferential fluctuations unlike the cylinder type. It was found that the circumferential flow induced from the partial slots could be the cause of combustion instability and roll torque.

As one way of design optimization of two-stage two-cylinder rotary compressor used for R410A heat pump application, displacement volume ratio, being defined by the ratio of the second stage cylinder volume to that of the first stage, has been varied and its effect on the compressor performance has been investigated by a computer simulation program. For simplicity, only the cylinder height of the second stage was varied to change the volume ratio. With increasing the volume ratio in the range of VR=$0.55{\sim}0.9$, volumetric efficiency increased monotonically, but adiabatic efficiency showed a maximum at around VR=0.6. Mechanical efficiency was little influenced by the volumetric ratio. As a consequence, maximum improvement of the compressor performance was found at around VR=0.7. Compared to a one-stage two-cylinder rotary compressor with about the same cooling capacity, COP improvement was about 6.96%.

The partial discharge detecting method using the ultrasonic technique has been investigated to monitor the insulation ageing of a transformer. However, the result of the studies on the ultrasonic technique for detecting of partial discharge in the operating transformer is not enough yet to utilize. This paper presents the analysis of the ultrasonic signals due to the partial discharge in a model transformer and the corona in air at a shielded high voltage room. In addition, the ultrasonic signals due to the vibration from the core, operation of the cooling pump, the fan and the OLTC at the 345㎸ power transformer, were analyzed and corona noise from overhead transmission line in 345㎸ substation were measured to remove the electrical and mechanical noises from the transformer. Furthermore, ultrasonic signal due to the partial discharge in the 154㎸ power transformer with in $C_2$$H_2$ gas warning condition was measured. The inside of the transformer was examined with care. which confirms the existence of the partial discharge source.

This research is based on the concept of safety airbag to design a self-rescue system for the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) using micro inertial sensing module. To reduce the possibility of losing the underwater vehicle and the difficulty of searching and rescuing, when the AUV self-rescue system (ASRS) detects that the AUV is crashing or encountering a serious collision, it can pump carbon dioxide into the airbag immediately to make the vehicle surface. ASRS consists of 10-DOF sensing module, sensing attitude algorithm and air-pumping mechanism. The attitude sensing modules are a nine-axis micro-inertial sensor and a barometer. The sensing attitude algorithm is designed to estimate failure attitude of AUV properly using sensor calibration and extended Kalman filter (SCEKF), feature extraction and backpropagation network (BPN) classify. SCEKF is proposed to be used subsequently to calibrate and fuse the data from the micro-inertial sensors. Feature extraction and BPN training algorithms for classification are used to determine the activity malfunction of AUV. When the accident of AUV occurred, the ASRS will immediately be initiated; the airbag is soon filled, and the AUV will surface due to the buoyancy. In the future, ASRS will be developed successfully to solve the problems such as the high losing rate and the high difficulty of the rescuing mission of AUV.

Recently, focus has been drawn on natural refrigerants due to increasing concern on global warming. As a consequence, CO2 systems such as a heat pump water heater using CO2 as a refrigerant are rapidly growing on the market. Currently, rolling piston rotary compressors are widely used for CO2 heating and/or refrigeration systems. There are several ways of realizing gas compression structure. They are single stage compression with single cylinder, single stage compression with two cylinders, and two stage compression with two cylinders. In this paper, computer simulation program which was validated for a single stage rotary compressor with one cylinder has been extended for a single stage, two cylinder rotary type. Numerical investigation has been made on optimal design for the cylinder configuration using the extended simulation program. For a single stage two cylinder rotary compressor having a displacement volume of 4 cc for each cylinder, compressor efficiency has been found to be maximum when the cylinder radius and height are 31mm and 10mm, respectively.

The objective of this study is to find the optimal set-point of a hybrid Plant, which is combined by renewable energy plant of the GSHP(Ground Source Heat Pump) and the conventional plant(chiller, boiler). The work presented in this study was carried out by using the EnergyPlus(Version 2.0). In order to validate the simulation model, field data were measured from a building. The GSHP was used as a base plant and the conventional plant as the assistant plant. Various temperatures were controlled (zone summer set-point, zone winter set-point, chilled water temperature, hot water temperature) to find the optimal set-point temperature of the system. The influence of the various set-points were analyzed seasonally.
