A dynamic model to simulate LNG reliquefaction process has been developed. The model was applied to two candidate cycles for LNG reliquefaction process, which are Reverse Brayton and Claude cycles. The simulation was intended to simulate the pilot plant under construction for operation of the two cycles and evaluate their feasibility. According to the simulation results, both satisfy control requirements for safe operation of brazed aluminum plate-fin type heat exchangers. In view of energy consumption, the Reverse Brayton cycle is more efficient than the Claude cycle. The latter has an expansion valve in addition to the common facilities sharing with the Reverse Brayton cycle. The expansion valve is a main cause to the efficiency loss. It generates a significant amount of entropy associated with its throttling and increases circulation flow rates of the refrigerant and power consumption caused by its leaking resulting in lowered pressure ratio. It is concluded that the Reverse Brayton cycle is more efficient and simpler in control and construction than the Claude cycle.

This paper presents a new ZCS-PWM high frequency inverter. Zero current switching operation is achieved in the whole load range by using a simple auxiliary reverse blocking switch in parallel with series resonant capacitor. Dual duty cycle control scheme is used to provide a wide range of high frequency AC output power regulation that is important in many high frequency inverter applications. It found that a complete soft switching operation can be achieved even for low power setting ranges by introducing high-frequency dual duty cycle control scheme. The proposed high frequency inverter is more suitable for consumer induction heating(IH) applications. The operation and control principle of the proposed high frequency inverter are described and verified through simulated results.

A computer model of a high efficiency refrigeration system equipped with heat storage for reverse cycle-hot gas defrost (the stored heat is used during defrost cycle of the system) is presented. The model was developed based on both theoretical and empirical equations for the compressor, evaporator, condenser and the heat storage equipment. Simulations of the prototype system were carried out to investigate refrigeration system performance under various operating conditions during refrigeration cycles. The simulations of the evaporator during defrost cycles at 30 and $40^{\circ}C$ hot gas refrigerant temperature were also performed which resulted on shorter defrost time but only slight increase in defrost efficiency. These information on energy efficiency and the defrost time required are important in order to avoid excessive parasitic load and temperature rise of the refrigerated room.

The high temperature superconductivity(HTS) cable must be cooled below the nitrogen liquefaction temperature to applicate the cable in power generation and transmi-ssion system under the superconducting state. To obtain superconducting state. a reliable cryocooler system is required. Structural and thermal design have been performed to design cryocooler system operated with reverse Brayton cycle using gas neon as refrigerant. This cryocooler system consists of compressor. recuperator. coldbox. control valves and has 1 kW cooling capacity. Heat loss calculation was conducted for the given cryocooler system by considering the conduction and radiation through the multi-layer insulation(MLI) and high vacuum. The results can be summarized as: conduction heat loss is 7 W in valves and access port and radiation heat loss is 18 W through the surface of cryocooler. The full design specifications were discussed and the results were applied to construct in house HTS cable cooling system.

Enforced environmental regulations call for extending the domain of manufacturers' responsibility to the entire product life cycle. To comply with the environmental regulations, manufacturers have constructed reverse logistics networks to re-collect their leftover waste for recycling consumed resources. However, the operational activities associated with storage, loading and transportation processes within the networks inevitably impose environmental burdens. Particularly, the transportation process largely influences environmental performance due to perpetual uses of transportation vehicles. Therefore, there is a need to develop an environmentally-conscious transportation model that can efficiently manage the uses of transportation vehicles. Additionally, it is vital to analyze its significances of environmental performance to compare quantitatively it with existing models. This paper proposes a transportation model for improving environmental performance in a reverse logistics network. This paper also presents a case study to perform its comparative analysis using Life Cycle Assessment that evaluates potential environmental impacts of a product system.

This paper presents a new ZVS-PWM high frequency inverter. The ZVS operation is achieved in the whole load range by using a simple auxiliary reverse blocking switch in parallel with series resonant capacitor. The operating principle and the operating characteristics of the new high frequency circuit treated here are illustrated and evaluated on the basis of simulation results. It was examined that the complete soft switching operation can be achieved even for low power setting ranges by introducing the high frequency dual duty cycle control scheme. In the proposed high frequency inverter treated here, the dual mode pulse modulation control strategy of the asymmetrical PWM in the higher power setting ranges and the lower power setting ones, the output power of this high frequency inverter could introduce in order to extend soft switching operation ranges. Dual duty cycle is used to provide a wide range of output power regulation that is important in many high frequency inverter applications. It is more suitable for induction heating applications the operation and control principle of the proposed high frequency inverter are described and verified through simulated results.

전자파 차폐재로 메쉬를 제작하는 기존의 배치 방식은 복잡한 작업공정과 비싼 설비로 인해 생산원가 높다. 그래서 pulse reverse current를 이용하여 Cu mesh 도금을 하였다. 정펄스의 전류밀도가 $31mA/cm^2$일일 때 역펄스의 전류밀도 및 duty cycle에 상관없이 표면은 매끄럽게 나왔다. 정펄스의 전류밀도가 $454mA/cm^2$일때는 duty cycle이 25%이하는 표면상태가 매끄럽게 나타났지만 33%이상에서 표면상태가 거칠게 도금이 되었다.

LNG선박에서 발생한 기화가스의 처리를 위해 지금까지는 기화가스를 보조연료로 사용하거나 연소시켰지만 선박의 대형화와 디젤엔진의 사용으로 인해 기화가스를 처리할 수 있는 방법이 제한적인 상황이 되었다. 이를 극복하기 위한 방안으로 고안된 재액화공정은 장치비용과 선박의 제한적인 에너지 공급문제 때문에 지금의 형태를 갖게 되었고 3세대 공정까지 기술발전을 이룩했지만 고효율을 위해 계속해서 연구 개발 중이다. 재액화공정의 방식은 크게 Reverse Brayton Cycle System(RBCS)과 Claude Cycle System(CCS)으로 구분된다. 이 연구에서는 두 가지 System을 분석함으로써 이상적인 피드 상태를 도출하고, 장치 설정을 변경하여 재액화 효율을 높이는데 적합한 설정을 결정하기 위해 HYSYS를 사용하였다. 도출된 경과는 고효율 재액화공정의 설계를 위한 자료로 활용이 가능하다.

Design of Reverse Stirling Cycle based refrigerator can be predicted by Schmidt theory as a useful tool and by experiment it is found that for practical purposes the power and efficiency predicted by this analysis are about 35% of the actual values. Therefore, appropriate provision is to be made for getting the realistic result with the minimum deviation. The present paper first investigates the suitability of application of Schmidt design analysis for standard ZIF-1002 and PLN-106 Single cylinder Cryogenerator model. As the result is found to be optimistic, the same design procedure is applied for the design of a separate Cryogenerator for generating a cooling effect which is sufficient to produce 7 kg per hour liquid nitrogen using an indigenous condenser of 80% effectiveness. The paper describes all the details of the design methodologies and relevant results are found to be satisfactory.
