This paper is concerned about alternative refrigerants for HCFC22 used in room air conditioners and heat pumps. Computer simulation of residential air conditioners using refrigerant mixtures is carried out. Following refrigerants are selected as the pure refrigerants constituting the mixtures studied: R32, R124, R125, R134, R134a, R143a and R152a. Simulation results are presented fur the following mixtures: R32/R134a, R32/R152a, R32/R134, R32/R124, R143a/R134a, R143a/R152a, R143a/R124, R125/R134a, R125/R152a, R125/R124, R32/R152a/R134a, R32/R152a/R134, R32/R152a/R124. The best fluid is found to be the ternary mixture of R32/R152a/R124. For that mixture, the coefficient of performance(COP) and volumetric capacity for refrigeration(VCR) are 13.7% larger and 23% smaller than the respective values for HCFC22. R32/R124 mixture is the best binary fluid pair whose COP and VCR are 13.4% larger and 9.6% smaller than those for HCFC22.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of two different metal conditioners for non-precious metal alloys for the bonding of porcelain to a cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) alloy. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Disk-shaped specimens ($2.5{\times}10.0mm$) were cast with Co-Cr alloy and used as adherend materials. The bonding surfaces were polished with a 600-grid silicon carbide paper and airborne-particle abraded using $110{\mu}m$ alumina particles. Bonding specimens were fabricated by applying and firing either of the metal conditioners on the airborne-particle abraded surface, followed by firing porcelain into 5 mm in diameter and 3 mm in height. Specimens without metal conditioner were also fabricated. Shear bond strength for each group (n=8) were measured and compared (${\alpha}=.05$). Sectional view of bonding interface was observed by SEM. EDS analysis was performed to determine the chemical elements of metal conditioners and to determine the failure modes after shear test. RESULTS. There were significant differences among three groups, and two metal conditioner-applied groups showed significantly higher values compared to the non-metal conditioner group. The SEM observation of the sectional view at bonding interface revealed loose contact at porcelain-alloy surface for non-metal conditioner group, however, close contact at both alloy-metal conditioner and metal conditioner-porcelain interfaces for both metal conditioner-applied groups. All the specimens showed mixed failures. EDS analysis showed that one metal conditioner was Si-based material, and another was Ti-based material. Si-based metal conditioner showed higher bond strengths compared to the Ti-based metal conditioner, but exhibited more porous failure surface failure. CONCLUSION. Based on the results of this study, it can be stated that the application of metal conditioner is recommended for the bonding of porcelain to cobalt-chromium alloys.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of black polyethylene film mulching and soil conditioners on the growth, yield, and flavonoids biosynthesis of mungbeans. The seedling stand rate, plant height, and pods per plant were 98%, 61 cm, and 15.1, respectively, when the mungbean grown black polyethylene film mulches. They were greater than these results when the without mulches was applied by 13%, 9 cm, and 1.8, respectively. Mungbean grown with black polyethylene film mulches ($243\;kg{\cdot}10a^{-1}$) exhibited 38% more seed yield than without mulches ($176\;kg{\cdot}10a^{-1}$). However, no significant difference in contents of vitexin and isovitexin of mungbeans between with black polyethylene film mulches and without mulches was observed. Among soil conditioners, standard fertilizer+oil cake and standard fertilizer+mineral powders increased number of pods. The standard fertilizer+oil cake showed the highest seed yield (119%) of mungbean when it mixed with standard fertilizers, and followed by mineral powders (115%). The mixed combinations of oil cake or mineral powders also seem to have affected the biosynthesis of vitexin and isovitexin, whose content in mungbeans was significantly more.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of some soil conditioners, such as polyacrylamide(PAM), polyvinylalcohol(PVA) and Bitumen emulsion, on aggregate formation and stability, wetting angle, sorptivity and penetrability of the soil with different textures : sand, sandy loam, loam and clay loam. A pot experiment was carried out to find out the effect of treatment on the germination and growth of lettuce with three textures : sand, sandy loam and silt loam. Soil aggregates larger than 2mm in untreated soils at dry condition were naught in sand, 45% in sandy loam, 80% in loam and 90% in clay loam. Treatments of soil conditioners tended to increase the occurrence of soil aggregate larger than 2mm, which were 20~25% in sand, 55~75% sandy loam, but not affected greatly aggragate occurence in loam and clay loam. The aggregate instability was decreased by the soil conditioner treatment. The wetting angles of the soils were greatly changed by hydrophobic of Bitumen, but those were changed slightly by PVA and PAM application. The sorptivity and penetrability data indicated that the effects of different materials on these parameters differed depending upon soil texture. Application of PVA and PAM were no effect exceptive in sand. Application of Bitumen revealed that water movement was not showed in all soils. The germination rate, root weight and top plant weight of lettuce were increased in all soils by PAM treatment as compared to untreated soils. Particularly the greater effect was occurred in sand soil than in sandy loam and silt loam. PAM increased greatly the moisture content and air phase of soils.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of clay loam soil, zeolite, and high molecular organic compounds on the improvement of soil physico-chemical properties and soybean yield in a sandy loam soil. Soybean was cultivated from 1987 to 1988. CEC, moisture retention of soil were increased, but soil bulk density and hardness were decreased by soil conditioners. Clay loam soil addition enhanced the soybean yield by 5% at 10ton 10a plot, 7% at 20ton/10a plot. Also zeolite application increased the soybean yield by 6~10%. Effects of soil conditioner application of the 1rst year were greater than that of 2nd year. Some experiments were conducted in laboratory for the effect of soil conditioners on soil physical properties. The nutrient and water holding capacity were highest by K-SAM treatment, but the soil aggregates was most stable by AN-905SH and Primal treatments.

This study was performed to compare the bonding mechanism of glass ionomers. In this study, hybrid glass ionomers were used for restoration(Fuji II LC, GC, Japan) as the material of choice. Two different etching solutions were used in this study, 35% phosphoric acid and 10% polyacrylic acid. The effect of two different conditioners to dentin surface of a primary molar was studied and compared by using scanning electron microscope. Further, the interface of the dentin surface and the hybrid glass ionomers were examined.

This paper presents a non-destructive evaluation study on a radiator with cooling fins as a complex shaped specimen. Radiator structures are used in various heat exchangers, such as automobiles, air conditioners and refrigerators. An eddy current testing method, namely multi-frequency excitation and spectrogram method (MFES), was employed to detect a defect on the radiator tube surrounded by cooling fins. Overall, experimental results suggested that the influence of cooling fin is not as noticeable as that of the defect signals.

Vapor oil fer radiator fm press in heat exchangers of air conditioners is carefully considered as the cooling performance can be affected by the residual vapor oil on the surface of radiator fin after fin press working. In this work, vapor oil for radiator fin press was developed in consideration of several properties such as physical characteristics, the rate of volatility, hazardous properties and material compatibility. In addition, it was confirmed that radiator fin press workability adopting the vapor oil and the cooling performance of air conditioner using the radiator fin were good.
