This paper is a study of recovery under load process of superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). SFCL consists of five parallel-connected high-temperature superconductor (HTS) tapes additionally stabilized by stainless tape. Previously, HTS was heated by current pulse to simulate a short circuit in a power grid. During the cooling period, the current amplitude decreased to 23% or less of HTS critical current value, which is the simulation of network re-switching. When HTS with a polymer coating is cooled, temperature gradient on thermal insulation layer occurs, that prevents a boiling crisis and improves the heat sink into liquid nitrogen. Two samples are coated with a 30 ㎛ and 50 ㎛ polylactide (PLA) layers, reference sample has no polymer coating on it. Samples with a polymer coating show 3-5 times faster cooling than the reference one.

In this study, a $CO_2$ air-conditioning system was investigated with different types of electrically driven compressors, parallel flow type gas cooler, four-pass type evaporator, internal heat exchanger integrated with accumulator, and electric expansion valve. The experimental study was conducted under various operating conditions (ie., different rotational compressor speeds, air inlet temperatures and air velocity coming into heat exchangers). The experimental results showed the cooling capacity was 3.5kW at $35^{\circ}C$ ambient temperature when the vehicle was idle (ie., the worst condition for cooling off the gas cooler). In terms of performance effect of the compressor, the e-RP model had a slightly better cooling capacity and coefficient of performance than the e-GR model under the same test conditions. An experimental equation for optimum cooling-performance control was also suggested based on the results. A high-pressure control algorithm for the super critical cycle was determined to achieve both maximum cooling performance and efficient energy consumption. The results from the experimental equation coincided with those of previous experimental studies.

As the OLED industry develops, display equipment is becoming larger. As a result, the stage required for display equipment is getting bigger. This enlargement led to increase in OLED production and industrial development. However, due to the large scale of the stage, other problems due to overheating and overheating caused by heavy load on the linear motor, which is mainly used in the stage, must be solved. In this study, a linear motor equipped with a cooling channel is modeled and the three - dimensional heat conduction flow analysis for this model is simulated using Fluent to analyze the cooling efficiency and cooling efficiency according to the cooling water flow rate. As a result, the cooling channel was effective and the cooling effect and efficiency were the best when the flow rate was about 5 ~ 10 L./min. In addition, the cooling effect is increased when the flow rate is increased, but the efficiency is significantly lowered when the flow rate is more than the predetermined value.

Hyperbolic thin-shell cooling towers have complicated vibration modes, and are very sensitive to the effects of group towers and wind-induced vibrations. Traditional aero-elastic models of cooling towers are usually designed based on the method of stiffness simulation by continuous medium thin shell materials. However, the method has some shortages in actual engineering applications, so the so-called "equivalent beam-net design method" of aero-elastic models of cooling towers is proposed in the paper and an aero-elastic model with a proportion of 1: 200 based on the method above with integrated pressure measurements and vibration measurements has been designed and carried out in TJ-3 wind tunnel of Tongji university. According to the wind tunnel test, this paper discusses the impacts of self-excited force effect on the surface wind pressure of a large-scale cooling tower and the results show that the impact of self-excited force on the distribution characteristics of average surface wind pressure is very small, but the impact on the form of distribution and numerical value of fluctuating wind pressure is relatively large. Combing with the Complete Quadratic Combination method (hereafter referred to as CQC method), the paper further studies the numerical sizes and distribution characteristics of background components, resonant components, cross-term components and total fluctuating wind-induced vibration responses of some typical nodes which indicate that the resonance response is dominant in the fluctuating wind-induced vibration response and cross-term components are not negligible for wind-induced vibration responses of super-large cooling towers.

In the current code design, the use of a uniform internal pressure coefficient of cooling towers as internal suction cannot reflect the 3D characteristics of flow field inside the tower body with different ventilation rate of shutters. Moreover, extreme weather such as heavy rain also has a direct impact on aerodynamic force on the internal surface and changes the turbulence effect of pulsating wind. In this study, the world's tallest cooling tower under construction, which stands 210m, is taken as the research object. The algorithm for two-way coupling between wind and rain is adopted. Simulation of wind field and raindrops is performed iteratively using continuous phase and discrete phase models, respectively, under the general principles of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Firstly, the rule of influence of 9 combinations of wind speed and rainfall intensity on the volume of wind-driven rain, additional action force of raindrops and equivalent internal pressure coefficient of the tower body is analyzed. The combination of wind velocity and rainfall intensity that is most unfavorable to the cooling tower in terms of distribution of internal pressure coefficient is identified. On this basis, the wind/rain loads, distribution of aerodynamic force and working mechanism of internal pressures of the cooling tower under the most unfavorable working condition are compared between the four ventilation rates of shutters (0%, 15%, 30% and 100%). The results show that the amount of raindrops captured by the internal surface of the tower decreases as the wind velocity increases, and increases along with the rainfall intensity and ventilation rate of the shutters. The maximum value of rain-induced pressure coefficient is 0.013. The research findings lay the basis for determining the precise values of internal surface loads of cooling tower under extreme weather conditions.

For the test of the operating characteristics as a moor, a 20 kVA super conducting synchronous machine with rotating field windings has been made in Saga university, Japan from 1991. Before the load tests of it as a motor, we carried out cooling down tests and measured its machine constants. During the cooling down tests, we found that the rotor itself had no cryogenic problem, but the inlet part for liquid He had one. Though enough liquid He couldn't be accumulated inside the rotor because of this problem, we drove field currents up to 20 A and could acquire the machine constants and V curves of the super-conducting synchronous motor.

The discharge properties of super high-pressure mercury lamp are due to resistance heating for energy input, and results in temperature increase. The cooling equilibrium state is reached by the heat conduction, convection and radiation. In order to predict the fluid flow and heat transfer in and around the mercury lamp accurately, its visualization is of utmost importance. Such visualization is carried out by CFD program in this study. We focus on Anode shape to calculate four cases, namely AA, AB, AC and AD separately, and compare the temperature distribution and velocity vector in each case to predict cooling capacity and fluid flow properties. It can be concluded that the shape of anode plays an important role that affects the fluid flow and heat transfer in a mercury lamp.
