This paper deals with a prediction method for the condensation of ternary refrigerant mixture inside a horizontal smooth tube. Based on some reliable assumptions, the governing equations for the local heat and mass transfer characteristics are derived, and the prediction for the condensation of ternary zeotropic refrigerant mixtures composed of HFC32/HFC125/HFC134a, including R407C, is carried out. The local values of vapor quality, thermodynamic states at bulk vapor, vapor-liquid interface and bulk liquid, mass flux etc. are obtained for a constant wall temperature and a constant wall heat flux conditions, and the effects of the composition of HFC32/HFC125/HFC134a on heat transfer characteristics are examined. The prediction result is also compared with experimental data for condensation of ternary refrigerant mixtures. The predicted wall temperature distribution has a similar trend with experimental data but the predicted local heat transfer coefficients are 20-30% higher than the experimental data.

With traditional experimental methods such as the secondary fluid (e.g., water) calorimetric method, it is very difficult to accurately test the local condensation heat transfer inside mini-channels. Hence, there are large discrepancies between the results of previous studies. The experimental methods as well as unidentified sources of uncertainties could be reasons for such discrepancies. In this study, innovative experimental techniques were developed to measure the in-tube condensation heat transfer coefficient. With these techniques, very low heat dissipation rates such as several watts from the mini-channel could be estimated and low mass flow rates below the 0.1 ㎏/h could be measured with reasonable uncertainties. To the authors' knowledge, these techniques provide a unique experimental apparatus for measuring the condensation heat transfer coefficients inside the sub-millimeter hydraulic diameter single channels.

The characteristic of supersonic flow with condensation along a wavy wall of small amplitude in channel is investigated through the direct marching method of characteristics. The very complex problem that may appear where the overlapping of the same family characteristics occurs, can be satisfactorily solved by means of the modified method suggested by Zucrow. In the present study for the case of supersonic moist air flow, the dependency of location of formation and reflection of oblique shock wave generated by the wavy wall, and the distributions of flow properties, on the relative humidity and temperature at the entrance of wavy wall is clarified by plots of streamline, ios-Mach umber and ios-flow properties. Also, it is confirmed that the wavy wall plays an important key role in the formation of oblique shock wave, and that the effect of condensation on the flow field appears apparently.

In present paper, mass transfer over a flat plate with film condensation including noncondesable gas is analyzed with the help of similarity methods. Couette flow was assumed in liquid film and boundary-layer approximation was used in the ambient flow. Governing equations were transformed into the ordinary differential equtions by the similarity methods. Runge-Kutta and shooting method were used in order to fine the effect of mass transfer on the velocity and concentrations at the liquid-vapor interface.

Purpose: Condensation in the apartment housing is one of the most significant defects and complaints for condensation are rapidly increasing according to the growing interest in residential environment. Korea government established a regulation for reducing condensation in the apartment housing and TDR is adapted as a standard. However prevention of condensation depend on improving the performance of building envelop has limitation because of the increase of the cost. Centralized Hybrid ventilation system is suggested to prevent condensation. Method: Field measurement was conducted to verify the ventilation rate of the ventilation system. Based on the measurement, air network and CFD simulation was conducted to analyze ventilation rate for each room. Surface temperature was calculated by regulated TDR according to the regions and surfaces. The performance of condensation prevention was evaluated by the ventilation rate and surface temperature. Result: In the results, it was found that condensation was prevented in more than 90% of households by the centralized hybrid ventilation system which provided 0.19 ~ 0.81ACH for each room.

In this paper, an efficient dynamic analysis method of a building structure with viscoelastic dampers is proposed. Viscoelastic dampers are used for the purpose of controlling vibration of buildings. The matrix condensation technlque based on the rigid diaphragm assumption is not readily applicable for building structures with viscoelastic dampers. An improved procedure for damping matrix condensation is employed in the proposed method to increase the efficiency of analysis. Efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are verified through analysis of an example structure.

Tin oxide nanoparticles (n-SnO and $n-SnO_2$) were synthesized by the inert gas condensation (IGC) method under dynamic gas flow of oxygen and argon at various conditions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) method were used to analysis the size, shape and crystal structure of the produced powders. The synthesized particles were mostly amorphous and their size increased with increasing the partial pressure of oxygen in the processing chamber. The particles also became broader in size when higher oxygen pressures were applied. Low temperature annealing at $320^{\circ}C$ in air resulted to crystallization of the amorphous n-SnO particles to $SnO_2$.

The purpose of this study was to compare the degree of micro- leakage of new glass ionomer root canal sealer, Ketac-Endo(ESPE Co., Seefeld, Germany) with that of AH-26(De Trey Co., Ltd., U.S.A.). Root canal treatment using K -file, H -file, Gate Glidden drill was conducted on 49 extracted single-rooted teeth. 45 teeth were randomly divided into 3 experimental groups(15 teeth per group) and 4 teeth were used as the control group. Group 1 was used AH -26 sealer with the lateral condensation method for canal filling, group 2 was used Ketac-Endo with the single cone method and group 3 was used Ketac-Endo with the lateral condensation method. The control group was obturated with the single cone method without sealer. The teeth were covered with two coats of nail varnish after 48 hours of obturation. The teeth were immersed in India ink for 1 week and cleaned with methyl salicylate and then the degree of dye penetration were measured with stereomicroscope. The data were analyzed statistically by one-way ANOVA. The results were as follows: 1. 7 teeth in group 1, 5 in group 2, and 3 in group 3, were showed evidence of microleakage implying appropriate canal filling. 2, The mean average of microleakage was $0.17{\pm}0.32mm$ in group 1, $0.30{\pm}0.37mm$ in group 2. $0.10{\pm}0.21mm$ in group 3, showing that canal filling using the lateral condensation canal filling method with Ketac-Endo showed the least microleakage and using the single cone method with Ketac-Endo showed the largest amount of microleakage, 3. There were no statistically significant difference in the variation of microleakage among groups. From the results above, Ketac-Endo which has the advantage of glass ionomer, whether using the single cone method or the lateral condensation method, showed similar results as AH-26, but for clinical application it is thought that were studies on the properties of Ketac-Endo should be followed.

Real-time Object tracking is an important field in developing vision applications such as surveillance systems and vision based navigation. mean-shift algerian and Condensation algorithm are widely used in robust object tracking systems. Since the mean-shift algorithm is easy to implement and is effective in object tracking computation, it is widely used, especially in real-time tracking systems. One of the drawbacks is that it always converges to a local maximum which may not be a global maximum. Therefore, in a cluttered environment, the Mean-shift algorithm does not perform well. On the other hand, since it uses multiple hypotheses, the Condensation algorithm is useful in tracking in a cluttered background. Since it requires a complex object model and many hypotheses, it contains a high computational complexity. Therefore, it is not easy to apply a Condensation algorithm in real-time systems. In this paper, by combining the merits of the Condensation algorithm and the mean-shift algorithm we propose a new model which is suitable for real-time tracking. Although it uses only a few hypotheses, the proposed method use a high-likelihood hypotheses using mean-shift algorithm. As a result, we can obtain a better result than either the result produced by the Condensation algorithm or the result produced by the mean-shift algorithm.
