For the effective control of a $CO_2$ air-conditioning system, the system high-side pressure algorithm, the indoor temperature algorithm, and the outdoor fan algorithm were developed. The system high-side pressure algorithm was composed of the setpoint algorithm, the reset algorithm, and the electronic expansion valve control algorithm. The indoor temperature algorithm was composed of the compressor control algorithm and the indoor fan control algorithm. These algorithms were tested by using mathematical models developed from the previous study. Results from the setpoint step change test and the disturbance test showed good control performances. Therefore, algorithms developed in this study may practically used for the control of a $CO_2$ air-conditioning system.

In order to protect the environment from the refrigerant pollution, the $CO_2$ may be regarded as one of the most attractive alternative refrigerants for an automotive air-conditioning system. Control methods for a $CO_2$ system should be different because of $CO_2$'s unique properties as a refrigerant. Especially, the high-side pressure of a $CO_2$ system should be controlled for the effective operation of the system. High-side pressure algorithms, which were composed of the pressure setpoint algorithm and the pressure setpoint reset algorithm, were developed. Pressure setpoint algorithms, by using a neural network and by using a least square method, were developed and compared. Pressure setpoint reset algorithms, by using a fuzzy logic and by using a proportional logic, were also developed and compared. Simulation results showed that a least square method was more useful than a neural network for the pressure setpoint algorithm. And a proportional logic was more practical than a fuzzy logic for the pressure setpoint reset algorithm.

In order to protect the environment from the refrigerant pollution, the $CO_2$ may be regarded as one of the most attractive alternative refrigerants for an automotive air-conditioning system. Control methods for a $CO_2$ system should be different because of $CO_2's$ unique propel-ties as a refrigerant. Especially, the high-side pressure of a $CO_2$ system should be controlled for the effective operation of the system. In this study, dynamic models of a $CO_2$ air-conditioning system were developed by using experimental data. Control algorithms for a high-side pressure control and an indoor air temperature control were developed and analysed by using the dynamic simulation program of a $CO_2$ system.

In this study, the high-side pressure setpoint algorithm was developed by using a neural network and a Lagrange interpolation method. These methods were compared. Simulation results showed that a Lagrange interpolation method was more effective than a neural network in the respect of its easiness of programming and shorter execution time.

In the respect of the environmental protection viewpoint, the $CO_2$ may be regarded as one of the most attractive alternative refrigerants for an automotive air-conditioning system. Control methods for a $CO_2$ system should be newly developed, because properties of $CO_2$ are different compared with those of classical refrigerants. Especially, high-side pressure of a $CO_2$ system should be controlled for the effective operation of the system. In this study, intelligent control algorithms for a $CO_2$ system were developed ‘ These are a high-side pressure control algorithm and an indoor air temperature control algorithm. These algorithms were analysised by using dynamic models of a $CO_2$ system.

Vapor compression refrigerators have much critical variables such as the controls of temperature and pressure switches, control durations and operating hours of electronic valves. This study compares and analyzes the data which is obtained from system controlling of the evaporation temperatures which are generally used in automatic pump down operating systems. Through this study, the automatic evaporation control operation system will be more ideal for the system to keep the proper temperature distribution depending on the purpose of evaporation side. The automatic pump down control operation is more appropriate for the system to aim at the effective use of evaporation side without using the temperature difference. And this test will be proved that the changes at the low pressure side didn't have significant impacts on the high pressure side.

In this paper, we report a robust steering control using time delay control for the vehicle dynamics variation due to tire/road contact condition variation, the lateral disturbance force due to the side wind, and the yaw disturbance moment due to the difference between the left and right tires' pneumatic pressure. We controlled the side slip and yaw damping compensation for rapid steering at the high velocity of the vehicle. Based on the developed control, the driver can only consider the desired path without concerning on the vehicle dynamics variation, disturbances, and undesired side slip and yaw oscillations. Simulation results show that robustness from the vehicle dynamics variation and disturbances was achieved by using the developed time delay control. We evaluated the side slip and yaw damping compensation capability for the rapid steering at the high velocity of the vehicle in the cases of three control methods.

In the respect of the environmental protection viewpoint, $CO_2$ may be one of the most attractive alternative refrigerants for an automotive air-conditioning system. For the development of control algorithm of a $CO_2$ automotive air-conditioning system, characteristics of a $CO_2$ refrigerant should be considered. The high-side pressure of a $CO_2$ system should be controlled in order to improve the system efficiency. In this study, dynamic physical models of a $CO_2$ system were developed and dynamic behaviors of the system were predicted by using these models. Control algorithms of a $CO_2$ system were also developed and the effectiveness of these algorithm was verified by using dynamic models.

When the hot water is supplied through the district heating (DH) pipeline, a pressure differential control valve (PDCV) protects the DH user equipment from the high pressure DH water and helps to supply DH water to long distance. It also controls the temperature and adjust the pressure in the main district heating pipeline. However, cavitation occurs in PDCV due to the use of high pressure DH water. It causes frequent failures and many problems. It also causes energy loss and complaints to both operators and users. In order to solve these problems, we will introduce the energy saving technology to replace the primary side PDCV with hydraulic turbine, convert the differential pressure into electricity, and utilize electricity as the power of the secondary side pump.
