The effects of hole expansion angle and the arrangement of nozzles on a film cooling system for a turbine-blade-shaped surface were experimentally investigated. Liquid crystal with flue-temperature correlation and an image processing system were employed to evaluate surface temperature. Distributions of cooling effectiveness were then presented to figure out the change of heat transfer characteristics with different geometric conditions of cooling-holes. It was found thats the averaged cooling efficiency on the suction surface was maximum with 10 degree of the cooling hole expansion angle. It was also shown that the averaged cooling efficiency on the pressure surface and the averaged cooling efficiency for dual array case were not affected by the hole expansion angle.

The performance of cooling tower is dependent on the thermal performance of the packings. It's assessed by heat transfer rate and fan power. In this study, new packing was developed for application in compact type cross-flow cooling tower. The packing characteristic curve and the pressure drop curve were obtained by measuring packing characteristic values and pressure drops of small sized filler in comparison to existing mid-large sized filler. The heat transfer characteristics on small sized filler are about 66% higher than existing mid-large sized filler. The pressure drop characteristics on small sized filler are about two times of the pressure drop characteristics on existing mid-large sized filler.

The experimental study is concerned with two-phase closed thermosyphons, (i.e., wickless heat pipes) for the cooling of high power electronic components in telecommunication system. The thermosyphon which can deal with a high heat flux of up to $4.9W/cm^2$ is developed, and the cooling characteristics of thermosyphon is analyzed according to design parameters which are the types of and quantity of working fluid, number of pipes, wire insertion in pipe, inclination angle of thermosyphon, and cooling air velocity. Using water as working fluid is superior cooling performance compared to using acetone, and cooling performance is improved as the number of thermosyphon becomes larger, inserting wires in the pipes, and inclination of $30~60^{\circ}$.

A multi-faceted experimental investigation has been carried out to study the cooling performance for stacked modules in arrays of heat generating rectangular modules deployed along PCB's in the enclosed cabinet. The main parameters which have an important effect on cooling characteristics are flow velocity, channel spacing, installation of fan unit, attachment of heat sink, and acoustic noise. The results of individual effect are very helpful for the electronic packaging designer. In order to improve the cooling performance, it is certain that the enlargement of channel space is obviously effective, while this id disadvantageous in high density electronic packaging. Each of the paameters is quantitatively examined as cooling performance and the correlation of Reynolds number to Nusselt number is compared with previous study.

Desiccant based air conditioning system offers a promising alternative to conventional one using vapour compression refrigeration for energy saving and greenhouse gas reduction. It is a heat driven cycle which has high potential for the use of low grade heat source such as the waste heat from the cogeneration plant or the solar thermal energy. In this study, the cooling performance of a desiccant cooling system incorporating a regenerative evaporative cooler was characterized in various operation conditions through numerical simulation. The cooling capacity and COP were evaluated at various outdoor conditions, regeneration temperatures, and supply flow rates. Based on the performance characteristics, the optimal control scheme was discussed to minimize the cooling cost at part load condition.

Numerous variables affect product cooling rate of pressure cooling system for fruits and vegetables. These include carton vent area, initial and desired final product temperature, flow rate and temperature of the cooling air, product size, shape and thermal properties and product configuration(whether in bulk or packed in shipping cartons). This study was carried out to determine the influence of each of these variables as they affect cooling time. The opening ratio and number of the vent hole were recomended as 4∼10% and 2∼4ea., respectively, for a minimum alt flow resistance and for a uniform air flow pattern. In the cooling experiment for tomatoes and mandarins, optimum air flow rate was 0.04 m3/min.kg in terms of energy saving. The cooling air temperature should be about 2$^{\circ}C$ less than the desired final product temperature for reducing cooling time.

Jungkwa is a traditional Korean dessert preserved in honey or sucrose. This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidant activities and quality characteristics of Rehmannia glutinosa Jungkwa (RJ). RJ was prepared after six repeated cycles of boiling-cooling. After blanching fresh Rehmannia glutinosa (600 g) for 5 min at $100^{\circ}C$, Rehmannia glutinosa was boiled in sucrose syrup (sucrose 720 g in water 600 g) for 60 min and then cooled for 24 hr. Moisture, pH and color values of lightness, redness and yellowness in the Hunter color system of Jungkwa decreased as the number of boiling-cooling cycles increased, whereas acidity, $^{\circ}Brix$ and reducing sugar contents of syrup increased. Total phenol content increased in by the 6th boiling-cooling cycle. Antioxidant activities, including DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, increased in RJ by the 6th boiling-cooling cycle. Based on these results, the antioxidant activities of Rehmannia radix Jungkwa was improved according to an increasing number of boiling-cooling cycles due to increased total phenol contents.

Ferritic plasma nitrocarburising was performed on pure iron using a modified DC plasma unit. This investigation was carried out with various gas compositions which consisted of nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon monoxide gases, and various gas pressures for 3 hours at $570^{\circ}C$. After treatment, the different cooling rates(slow cooling and fast cooling) were used to investigate its effect on the structure of the compound layer. The ${\varepsilon}$ phase occupied the outer part of the compound layer and ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ phase existed between the ${\varepsilon}$ phase and the diffusion zone. The gas composition of the atmosphere influenced the constitution of the compound layer produced, i.e. high nitrogen contents were essential for the production of ${\varepsilon}$ phase compound layer. It was found that with increasing carbon content in the gas mixture the compound layer thickness increased up to 10%. In the gas pressure around 3 mbar, the compound layer characteristics were slightly effected by gas pressure. However, in the low gas pressure and high gas pressure, the compound layer characteristics were significantly changed. The constitution of the compound layer was altered by varying the cooling rate. A large amount of ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ phase was transformed from the ${\varepsilon}$ phase during slow cooling.
