A numerical model for the solidification of binary mixture is proposed. Numerical model, which employs enthalpy method, is modified from Continuum model, that is, improved relation is proposed for the Enthalpy - Temperature - Concentration - Liquid Mass Fraction. One dimensional example was selected to verify the proposed model. The results show that the new relation can be applied successfully to the solidification or melting of binary mixture.

The objectives of this paper are to analyze simultaneous heat and mass transfer performance for a plate type bubble absorber with binary nanofluids numerically and to investigate the effects of binary nanofluids and surfactants on the size of the bubble absorber. The effective absorption ratio represents the effect of binary nanofluids and surfactants on the absorption performance. The kinds and concentrations of nano-particles and surfactants are considered as the key parameters. The results show that the addition of surfactants can reduce the size of absorber up to 74.4%, the application of binary nanofluids does the size up to 63.6%. Combination of binary nanofluids and surfactants can reduce the size of absorber up to 77.4%.

Analysis is performed to determine the optimal lengths or cross-sectional areas of refrigerator-cooled current leads that can be applied to the conduction-cooled superconducting systems. The binary current lead is composed of the series combination of a normal metal at the upper(warm) part and a high $T_c$ superconductor(HTS) at the lower(cold) part. The heat conduction toward the cold end of HTS part constitutes a major refrigeration load. In addition, the joint between the parts should be cooled by a refrigerator in order to reduce the load at the low end and maintain the HTS part in a superconducting state. The sum of the work inputs required for the two refrigeration loads needs to be minimized for an optimal operation. In this design, three simple models that depict the refrigeration performance as functions of cooling temperature are developed based on some of the existing refrigerators. By solving one-dimensional conduction equation that take into account the temperature-dependent properties of the materials, the refrigeration works are numerically calculated for various values of the joint temperature and the sizes of two parts. The results show that for given size of HTS, there exist the optimal values for the joint temperature and the size of the normal metal. It is also found that the refrigeration work decreases as the length of HTS increases and that the optimal size of normal metal is quite independent of the size of HTS. For a given length of HTS, there is an optimal cross-sectional area and it increases as the length increases. The dependence of the optimal sizes on the refrigerator models employed are presented for 1kA leads.

Thermodynamic cycles using binary mixtures as working fluids offer a high potential for utilization of low-temperature heat sources. This paper presents a thermodynamic performance analysis of Goswami cycle which was recently suggested to produce power and cooling simultaneously and combines the Rankine cycle and absorption refrigeration cycle by using ammoniawater mixture as working fluid. Effects of the system parameters such as concentration of ammonia and turbine inlet pressure on the system are parametrically investigated. Results show that refrigeration capacity or thermal efficiency has an optimum value with respect to ammonia concentration as well as to turbine inlet pressure.

Binary nanoemulsions which are defined as the, oil-droplet suspensions in binary solution ($H_2O$/LiBr), are developed to enhance the heat and mass transfer performance of absorption refrigeration systems. In this study, a novel two-step method is proposed to prepare the stable oil-in-binary solution (O/S) emulsion. Polymer is used as a steric stabilizer to stabilize the oil-droplets in a strong electrolyte ($H_2O$/LiBr). It is found that the thermal conductivity of the binary nanoemulsion is inversely proportional to the emulsion size while the concentrations of oil and $H_2O$/LiBr are less dominant for the thermal conductivity of binary nanoemulsions.

The objective of the present study is to study the Soret effect of both nanoparticles and solute on the convective instabilities in binary nanofluids. A new stability criterion is obtained based on the linear stability theory. The results show that the Soret effect of solute(${\psi}_{bf}$) makes the binary nanofluids unstable significantly and the convective motion in a binary nanofluid sets in easily as the ratio of Soret coefficient of nanofluid to that of binary basefluid ${\delta}_4$ increases for ${\delta}_4$ > -1. It is also found that as an increase of the volume fraction of nanoparticles, nanofluid becomes stable but at a separation ratio of ${\psi}=-0.3$ the state of fluid changes from stable to unstable.

This paper represents the cold energy for liquefied nitrogen gas and cascade refrigerator. In this study, the vaporizer of liquefied nitrogen gas has the fin coil tube type with the dimension of inside diameter of 10mm and outside diameter of 12mm. Also, the total length of vaporizer is 20,000mm. The main experimental parameters are the mean velocity in duct and the supplied flow-rates of liquefied nitrogen gas. For the cascade refrigeration system, the refrigerants are ethane(R 170) in the high pressure stage and R 22 in the low pressure stage.

Vapor-liquid equilibrium apparatus is designed and set up. The vapor-liquid equilibrium data of the binary system HFC125/134a are measured in the range between 268.15 and 283.15K at five compositions. Twenty-five equilibrium data are obtained. To verify consistency of these data, they are tested for thermodynamic consistency. Based upon the present data, the binary interaction parameter for CSD and RKS equation of state is calculated at five isotherms and comparison with the data in the open literatures is made. Results of Nagel and Bier are in very good agreements with those from this study within 0.32∼1.11% for bubble point pressure and －0.66∼0.18% for vapor mole fraction.

Double-diffusive convection during solidification process of the binary mixture was studied numerically. Enthalpy method and finite element method were implemented in the analysis. Calculation carried out for $R{\alpha}_T=10^3-10^4$ and $R{\alpha}_T=0-10^5$. The results show that the variation of thermal Rayleigh number changes the fields of velocity, temperature and concentration, but the variation of solutal Rayleigh number gives little effects on those. In conclusion, concentration gradient can be negligible compared with temperature gradient in macroscopic point of view, although concentration gradient plays a role in forming dendrite.
