The inner pulley is an automobile component used as air conditioner clutch assembly. In cold forging of inner pulley, the design requirements are to keep the same height of the inner rib and outer one, and to make uniform the hardness distribution in the forged product. In industry, the design of forging processes is performed based on experience-oriented technology, that is, designers experience and expensive trial and error. Using the rigid-plastic finite element simulations. we design the optimal process conditions, which has a preforming operation. Also the final product configuration of forging has to be designed again in view of metal flow involved in the operation, derived from the finite element simulations. The forged pulley is investigated by checking the hardness distribution and it is noted that distribution has improved to be even and high enough for industrial application.

In this study, a numerical model for analyzing frost formation phenomena on a cold flat plate has been developed. Both regions of air flow and frost layer have been coupled to calculate the amount of the heat and mass transfer between air flow and frost layer. Experiments have been also conducted to validate the numerical model. The present numerical results show a good agreement with the experimental data. The present numerical model also provides some useful data such as the temperature distribution inside the frost layer which could not be obtained through the experiments.

The purpose of this study is to find out cold and fresh air producing areas using climate-ecological functions in Changwon city, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea. The evaluation of climate-ecological functions were composed of the six factors: patch size with cold air generation and inflow functions, farmland and grassland ratio, mean slope degree, cross section types, mean slope length and roughness of bottom in valley. The analysis results of each evaluation factor in the study area were divided into 5 grades according to the capacity of cold air generation. The first-grade area with the highest factor values for cold air generation was take up 3.51% of the total study area, second grade was 13.48%, third grade was 31.65%, fourth grade was 27.28%, and fifth grade was 24.09%. According to the spatial distribution of cold air producing areas, the valleys around Mt. Bongnim, Changwon tunnel, and Anmin tunnel had higher evaluation grade. It will require the future research to establish the climate-ecological conservation areas and to construct the wind corridor based on the long-term microclimatic monitoring.

In this study, the combined-type diffuser developed by the Authors, in a previous study, was applied to a residential space. The performance of a ventilation and thermal environment, created by the use of a combined-type diffuser was compared to the pan-type diffuser widely used in apartment houses. In cooling conditions, because of the relatively high air flow rate of ceiling cassette-type air conditioners, the characteristics of airflow distribution in a room were governed by the air conditioner's airflow. In heating conditions, because of the low air flow rate of the diffuser, the characteristics of airflow distribution were governed by the buoyancy effect created by cold external walls and a hot floor. In terms of the Air Diffusion Performance Index (ADPI), which is a thermal environmental index, the result of a combined-type diffuser was greater than a pan-type diffuser in both of cooling and heating conditions. Consequently, the combined-type diffuser showed equal or superior ventilation and thermal environment performance compared to a pan-type diffuser.

This study examines one thermal index, perceived temperature (PT), over the Korean Peninsula during 2007 summer. Heat/cold stress has been described using air temperature and humidity for warm seasons and air temperature and wind velocity in the cold conditions, while PT is based on a heat budget model of the human body that considers air temperature, humidity, wind velocity and radiation effect regardless of climates, regions and seasons. PT is higher about $4-5^{\circ}C$ than air temperature in the summer. Humidity increases PT, while wind tends to reduces PT possibly by evaporation of water vapor. The geographical distribution of summer PT indicates that the lowest PT happened in the east central region, with the appearance of the highest PT in the inland of southern region in Korea. Although the latitudinal trend shows that PT decreases northward, inland PT is higher than that of coastal region. Compared to the heat index or the discomfort index that considers air temperature and humidity, PT represents distinctive regional characteristics of thermal comfort. The distribution of PT shows that it may be a useful thermal index for the assessment of thermal comfort or stress region in the Korean Peninsula.

The present study has been conducted for manufacturing MPCM (microencapsulated phase change material) slurry with in-situ polymerization and proving their applicabilities for cooling system. The tetradecane as a core material of MPCM is coated with melamine. The produced capsules are observed by the optical microscope and SEM for superficial shapes and analysed their properties by DSC and particle size distribution by FA particle analyzer. It is found that narrow size distribution in 1 to $10{\mu}m$ is resulted in $5{\mu}m$ of average diameter and $9^{\circ}C$ melting temperature. The durability of MPCM capsules is tested with various types of pumps such as centrifugal, peristaltic, and mono. For the centrifugal and peristaltic pumps the breakage fraction of the capsules is resulted within $6\%$ during 10,000 cycles, while the mono is over $8\%$. The cooling system, which has adopted MPCM slurry as a medium for transporting cold thermal energy, is designed to investigate the performance of newly developed coolant. The discharging times of cold energy in circulating 10 and $20wt\%$ MPCM slurry are lasted to 105 and 285 minutes, respectively.

CFD analysis was performed to analyze the temperature distribution of the inner space of the curing house according to blocking the opening of the gang-form with a tent in case of concrete pouring and heat curing of the apartment house during the winter season. If the gang-form opening is closed with a tent during internal heating using a hot air blower in the winter, the internal temperature rises compared to the non-reserved due to air-tightness of the curing spaces, and uniform temperature distribution can be ensured. In addition, it is possible to increase curing efficiency by reducing the amount of heat supplied and shortening the heating time.

The effect of airconditioning and heating system when aircurtains installed in subway electrical rolling stock at entrance door. It blocks cold/hot air of outside. It is good for health with its blocking effect against dusts exhaust fumes, odor bugs and smoke from outside. It always maintains clean and pleasant atmosphere inside. It helps you to have health with its ever-equal temperature distribution at inside. It saves lots of maintenance cost for heating/cooling (about 86$\%$) since it cuts the loss of hot air under heating as well as of cold air under air-conditionin. Customers can feel pleasant go in and out (better than before) with the door. It is an indispensable product for the employers to cut the cost. It makes customers feel pleasant near doors, since it isnt influenced by temperature difference of cold/hot air when the door opens/closes. In electrical rolling stock passenger temperature is a lot different from that the door opens/closes. One of the main aims is to create an acceptable thermal environment without draught problem. Temperature, gradients when aircurtains installed in subway electrical rolling stock at entrance door have been studied. And the temperature measured at 0.1, 0.5, 1.3, 1.7m above the floor. It has been found that temperature, with large fluctuations caused more draught influence.
