Performance of a water-to-water multi-type heat pump system using R22 which has tow indoor units has been investigated experimentally. The refrigerant flow rate of each indoor unit was regulated by an electronic expansion valve and the total refrigerant flow rate of the system was controlled by a variable speed compressor. In the system, evaporator outlet pressure of refrigerant and outlet temperatures of secondary fluid from indoor units were selected as control variables. Experiments were executed for both cooling and heating modes using PID control method with fuzzy logic, and results of the test are compared with a classical PID method. In the case of PID control with fuzzy logic, the fuzzy control rules corrects PID parameters each time. Results show that PID control with fuzzy logic has the merits of quick response and reduced overshoot.

In this study, applicable possibility in chemical decontamination for reactor coolant pump(RCP) was investigated for the various stainless steels. The stainless steel(STS) 304 showed the best electrochemical properties for corrosion current density and the lowest weight loss ratio in chemical decontamination process model 3-3 than other materials. The weightloss quantity in chemical decontamination process model 3-3 presents the lowest value compare to the other chemical decontamination process model 1, 2, 3-1 and 3-2. In the case of SEM observation, the pitting corrosion was generated in both STS 415 and STS 431 with the increasing numbers of cycle. The intergranular corrosion in STS 431 was sporadically observed. The sizes of their pitting corrosion were also increased with increasing cycle numbers.

In the case of heat exchangers operating under frosting condition, the growth of frost layer causes the heat exchanger to increase the thermal resistance and pressure loss of the air flow. In this paper, a transient characteristic prediction model of the heat transfer for multi inverter heat pump with frosting on its surface was presented taking into account the change of the fin efficiency due to the growth of the frost layer. In this dynamic simulation program, which was peformed for a basic air conditioning system model, such as evaporator, condenser, compressor, linear electronic expansion valve (LEV) and bypass circuit. The theoretical model was driven from the obtained heat transfer coefficient and mass transfer coefficient, independently. And we consider heat transfer performance was only affected by a decrease of the wind flow area. The calculated results were compared with some cases of experiments for frosting conditions.

At present, there are unnecessary electrical consumes and a lot of fuel-losses by the vaporized gas due to the rising of fuel temperature because the fuel pump of the fuel supply system rotates regularly regardless to the driving condition. In this paper, we designed the multi-step controller for controlling fuel pump to supply fuel according to RPM of each moment by measuring the real time RPM of the engine at ECU of the vehicle. Also, it can judge the existence or nonexistence of disorder by measuring the pressure of the fuel supply line, in case of abnormal state, it can supply the fuel intelligently by changing the mode to self-compensation mode.

For design of cryogenic propellant feeding system, one of the main requirements is to meet temperature requirement for satisfying turbo-pump NPSH requirement. In this paper improved method of estimating the thermal stratification in liquid oxygen tank is presented to help design. In the case of liquid rocket using turbo-pump, the inner pressure of liquid oxygen tank is maintained low, so vaporization of liquid oxygen is generally occurred. In this paper, inner process of LOX tank is analyzed by two phase flow modeling. The vaporization rate and required helium mass is investigated.

Geothermal or ground source heat pumps(GSHPs) are electrically powered systems that take advantage of the earth's relatively constant temperature to provide heating, cooling, and hot water for homes and commercial buildings. The buried pipe, or ground loop, is the most recent technical advance in heat pump technology. The idea to bury pipe in the ground to gather heat energy began in the 1940s. Only recently, however, have new heat pump designs and improved buried pipe materials been combined to make GHP systems the most efficient heating and cooling systems available. The aim of the study is application of the GSHP system in korea. Our environments for economy, politics and society are different from other countries. For a case, the progressive tax rate of home electricity is represented.

Recently, the amount of electrical heat pump(EHP), a electrical conditioning equipment, is sharply increasing due to the luxury and multi-story trend of building. Accordingly, the cooling load that occupying substantial part of summer electric consumption has increased dramatically, making difficulties in domestic supply of electricity in summer. There are some efforts to replace it with an alternative cooling equipment such as gas heat pump(GHP), a gas cooling equipment, in order to solve the problem of summer electricity supply through reducing the summer electricity peak. It is rare, however, to find studies on the actual effects of GHP on the reduction of summer electricity peak. This study, therefore, estimated the effects of the GHP on the summer electricity peak by the gas consumption and characteristics of gas cooling systems. In addition, electric substitution effects by gas cooling systems were analyzed through case studies in the summer of 2010.

In case of heat exchangers operating under frosting condition, the thermal resistance and the air-side pressure loss increase with a growth of frost layer. In this paper, a transient characteristic prediction model of the heat transfer for a multi-inverter heat pump with frosting on its surface was presented by taking into account the change of the fin efficiency due to the growth of the frost layer. This dynamic simulation program was developed for a basic air conditioning system composed of an evaporator, a condenser, a compressor, a linear electronic expansion valve, and a bypass circuit. The theoretical model was derived from measured heat transfer and mass transfer coefficients. We also considered that the heat transfer performance was only affected by the decrease of wind flow area. The calculated results were compared with the experimental results for frosting conditions.

The methods of recording transient phenomena with picosecond or better resolution fall into two basic categories: those in which the detector itself prossesses adequate time resolution for the task at hand, and those in which the response of the system is sampled by examining the characteristics of a second pulse ("the probe") delayed in time from the initiating pulse ("the pump") as a function of time delay between pump and probe cases. In this case the time resolution is only limited by the pump-and probe-pulse durations. As an application of this time-resolved spectroscopic technique, the ultrafast orientational relaxation phenomena of the dye molecules are currently under investigation in our laboratory. In this presentation the status of our experiment is summarized.iment is summarized.

In this study, the characteristics of heating performance of a high-performance air-cooled heat pump with vapor-injection(VI) cycle using re-heater was investigated experimentally. Devices used in the experiment is consist of a VI compressor, condenser, oil separator, refrigerant (economizer outlet refrigerant) re-heater, economizer, evaporator. And R410A was used as a working fluid. The experiment was conducted with two cycles(cycles A and B) for investigating heating performance. In case of cycle B, heat exchange was conducted by re-heater between outlet refrigerant of compressor and suction refrigerant of the VI system(Fig.1, re-heater). But the re-heater was not used in case of cycle A. As a result of this experiment, discharge temperature of refrigerator in compressor was shown higher value, when the cycle B was conducted, because of the heat exchange between suction refrigerant of VI cycle and outlet refrigerant of compressor in the re-heater than cycle A that was not use re-heater. it means that liquid hammer and the decrement of heating performance can be decreased by using re-heater. Also, Heating coefficient of performance(COPh) was shown about 2.98 in Cycle B which was 4% higher than Cycle A and from these results, It was confirmed that the improvement of the heating performance of heat pump with VI cycle can be achieved by applying re-heater.
