During this study, number of fan by ambient air temperature that condenser pressure satisfies steam turbine exhaust pressure condition with intervals of $3^{\circ}C$ within the 150 MW thermal power plant site temperature range of $-17.1^{\circ}C$ to $36.7^{\circ}C$ was reviewed. An air cooled condenser changes its operating pressure influenced by cooling air circulation amount by atmospheric temperature and number of fan. For stable power plant operation, these were confirmed to maximize a quantity of air-cooled condenser fans at above or equal from design ambient temperature and to reduce an amount of circulating air to an air cooled condenser by depending on a quantity of fan considering exhaust pressure operation condition of a steam turbine at below design ambient temperature.

In this paper, we proposed a LED driver that allows to use a long lifetime MLCC with small voltage capacity to replace the electrolytic condenser that has been used at the output part by storing only the voltage fluctuation due to temperature variation in the output condenser. The proposed LED driver can allow to use a long lifetime MLCC with small power loss as the output condenser instead of the conventional electrolytic condenser with short lifetime because it stores only the voltage fluctuation due to the temperature variation of the LED light source in the output condenser by connecting the output condenser with the input power supply in series in the basic topology of the conventional boost DC/DC converter. In this study, we performed a simulation to verify the conventional DC/DC converter and the proposed DC/DC converter. It was shown that the DC/DC converter proposed through the experiment allows to use MLCC as the output condenser and the efficiency can be improved.

In this paper, permanent magnets were used to remove magnetic sludge in the condenser of the power plant. To obtain the flow characteristics and magnetic information that are needed for determining a proper design of the magnetics sludge removal apparatus, numerical simulations were performed through the use of two commercial codes, ANSYS Workbench-Emag and CFX. Experiments were also performed on various kinds and sizes of magnets to obtain the magnetic information through a gauss meter. By analyzing the results of simulations and experiments, the minimum magnetic force that is able to remove the any size of the magnetic sludge in the condenser was calculated, and the design of the removal apparatus was confirmed. The test model which was confirmed by simulations and experiments was made. After testing, the test results were compared with those of numerical simulations and have good agreements.

In this paper, the flow uniformity improvement and flow characteristic of the sensor condenser for a heat exchanger cleaning system were studied using response surface method and computational-fluid-dynamics. The design variable was defined as a shape for controllable sensor condenser area. The objective functions were defined as the improvement of flow uniformity in heat exchanger cleaning system tubes. The flow uniformity improvement and flow characteristic of optimum model was verified by numerical analysis and the reliability of the model was retained by comparison of numerical analysis and comparative analysis with the reference model.

T-50 ECS(environment control system) was designed to have freezing protection for the condenser. However during the ground and flight test, the freezing problem was occurred. This paper deals with the analysis of the freezing problem and introduces anti-freezing design using ADI(Active De-Icing) logic to solve the condenser freezing problem of T-50 ECS

This paper presents the experimental study on the design conditions of pressure between booster ejector and air ejector in the steam-jet water-vapour refrigeration system. In this experiment, the motive steam of booster ejector and ai. ejector was dry saturated from 6 ata to 8 ata and flash chamber pressure were about $10\∼540mmHg$ higher than mixing section in booster ejector. The investigation of air on the pressure of booster ejector was performed by changing the condenser pressure. The experimental results show that flash chamber vacuum and condenser pressure of steam-jet refrigeration cycle increased in accordance with the increase of motive steam Pressure. Among the several nozzle sires tested, No.4 nozzle were best in term of evaporator vacuum under the constant operating conditions of air ejector in condenser.

For successful design of component, performances of one-tank plate type evaporator, gas-liquid separation type condenser, swash plate type compressor and thermostatic expansion valve for automotive air conditioner are investigated experimentally. Heat transfer characteristics in the evaporator are examined by means of air temperature, relative humidity, air volume flow, outlet refrigerant pressure and superheat, and heat transfer characteristics in the condenser are examined by means of air temperature, air velocity and inlet refrigerant pressure. Pressure drops for both evaporator and condenser are measured arid empirical correlations are derived. Volumetric efficiencies and isentropic efficiencies for trio types of compressors with different capacity are measured and compared. Thermostatic expansion valve is tested to investigate the pressure variation according to temperature changes.

In case of hollow cylinder extrusion using porthole die, the effects of extrusion parameters-temperature, the speed of extrusion, the shape of the die and mandrel-on metal flow in porthole die extrusion of aluminum have been investigated. However, there have been few studies about condenser tube extruded by porthole die. Original metal flow of condenser tube by porthole die extrusion is similar to hollow cylinder extrusion but the estimation of metal flow for extrusion parameters is different. For example, variation of chamber length in hollow extrusion only affects the welding pressure, however, the welding chamber length in condenser tube extrusion influences to the welding pressure as well as the deflection of mandrel. This study was designed to evaluate metal flow, welding pressure, extrusion load, tendency of mandrel deflection according to angular variation in the bottom of chamber in porthole die. Estimation was carried out using finite element method in as non-steady state. Analytical results can provide useful information the optimal design of porthole die.

Condenser tubes are mainly produced by precision extrusion with a porthole die and are used in the flow pass of refrigerant cooling systems in automobiles. The recent technical trend of condenser tube requires the tube to be of more multi cellizing, high strength and small size, and to increase the heat transfer area and heat efficiency. Hence, this paper is shown that the results of FE-simulation are in good agreement with the experimental ones. Finally, the extrusion die shape is proposed through analysis of FE-simulation and performance of trial extrusion. Chamber shape dimension and initial temperatures of die is adjusted analysis results. And the possibility of extrusion is estimated that forming load, welding pressure and stress analysis of die in this paper. The validity of simulated results was verified into extrusion experiments on the condenser tubes.

Floor panel heating system using hot water is the primary heating system of domestic residential building. This paper presents the results of performance analysis of the heat pump system with air source evaporator and single unit dual sink(SUDSk) condenser. The heat exchanger combines two separated condensers into a single condenser and the object of the SUDSk condenser is to release energy to dual sinks, i.e. air for air heating system and water for panel heating system in one single unit. Simulation program is developed for single unit dual source(SUDS) SUDSk heat pump system and some experimental data are obtained and compared with simulation results. Differences of heating capacity and COP in dual source operating mode are 7% and 8% respectively. Simulation results are in good agreement with test results. Therefore, developed program is effectively used for design and performance prediction of dual source dual sink heat pump system with SUDS evaporator and SUDSk condenser.
