The objectives of this paper are to study the effects of thermal and geometric conditions on the performance of indoor heat exchanger with R410A. This study carried out experimental and numerical analysis for indoor heat exchangers. In the experimental study, capacity of the indoor unit was estimated 8.3 kWh with the valve opening rate of 95% for the 50% partial operation condition. The air temperatures were measured using 80 thermocouples. This study also compared experimental data with the calculated data for the outlet temperature and the tube length. It is found that the relative errors between the experiment data and the calculated result are 4.2% and 0.5% for the outlet temperature and the tube length, respectively.

Objectives: This study was performed to evaluate the secular changes in indoor airborne dust or endotoxin levels in the dust from swine confinement buildings. Indoor levels were compared with the level at the exhaust outlet in order to examine the contribution potential of indoor dust to nearby ambient air dust. Methods: Comparisons were made on inhalable and respirable dust levels reported in 2002, 2012, and 2017 from 14, 10, and 36 swine fattening confinement buildings in Korea, respectively. This data was produced by the same research group. Levels of endotoxin adsorbed into inhalable or respirable dust were also compared. Samples of inhalable or respirable dust were collected indoors and at exhaust outlets from 17 swine fattening confinement buildings in 2019, and dust levels were compared between the indoor and the outlet. Results: The outlet inhalable dust level (0.111 mg/㎥) was approximately 19% of that from indoors, and the respirable dust level (0.033 mg/㎥) was approximately 74% of that from indoors. The outlet respirable dust levels were lower than the airborne fine dust levels in the towns where those farms are located. No significant difference was observed in the inhalable dust levels among the years examined, but the respirable dust level in 2017 (0.143 mg/㎥) was significantly lower than in 2002 (0.328 mg/㎥). The level of endotoxin in inhalable dust was significantly higher in 2017 (722 EU/㎥) than in both 2002 (75 EU/㎥) and 2012 (171 EU/㎥). Conclusion: Even though no apparent contribution from swine farm indoor dust to nearby ambient air dust was observed in terms of amount, a certain control strategy to reduce the production of airborne dust and endotoxin from swine farms is merited.

The numerical and experimental studies on the mixed convection of a rectangular enclosure for indoor air control has been studied numerically using the finite volume method and experimentally with holographic interferometry and Laser apparatus. The parameters studied here are Pr= 0.71, $30{\leq}Re{\leq}600$, $700{\leq}Gr{\leq}100000$ and the positions of an outlet. The results show streamlines, isothrems, velocity distributions and photograph of holographic interferometry and streamlines. It is found that the minimum cell occurs at Re=100, Gr=10000. The mean Nusselt numbers can be expressed by the correlation equation $Nu=C{\cdot}Gr^a$ $Re^b.$ The comparison of numerical and experimental results shows a good agreement.

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.

The objectives of this paper are to provide information on the characteristics of the discharge signals in a low-voltage indoor outlet. Most of electrical fires are caused by short circuits, overheating of wires, deterioration and incomplete connection of wiring devices. The last two cases are predictable before the occurrence of fire because of its slow progress. We have simulated the discharge signals caused by the deterioration and incomplete connection of wiring devices using aged outlets. From the experimental data, we could characterize the frequency spectrums of the discharge signals depending on the cases. The higher frequency components of the signal are attenuated by the capacitance and inductance of power lines as the measuring point is getting away from the discharges. Main frequency components of the discharge signal are existent at 600kHz - 1.5MHz in incomplete connections and at 210H7z - 8MHz in deteriorations of the outlet.

Performance of a water-to-water multi-type heat pump system using R22 has been experimentally investigated. Total refrigerant flow rate was adjusted with a variable speed compressor and the refrigerant flow rate for two indoor units were controlled by electronic expansion valves. Evaporator outlet pressure of refrigerant and indoor unit outlet temperatures of secondary fluid were selected as controlled variables. Experiments were carried out for both cooling and heating modes using PID control method. Results show that the multi-type heat pump system can be adequately controlled by keeping control gains at certain levels for various operating conditions.

The thermal comfort of occupants is directly related to several environmental factors such as velocity of air flow, turbulence intensity and temperature distribution of indoor air. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the indoor air flow and temperature distribution in office area using under-floor air-conditioning system (UFAC System) based on the results from physical measurements and to perform a Computer Fluid Dynamics (CFD) under the same condition of inlet and outlet as field measurement. The results from the CFD simulation are similar to those from the field measurement. The results show that UFAC system is provide proper indoor condition for occupants.

The experiment was conducted to predict air movements and to analyzxe the ventilation characteristics in ventilated greenhouse. Relatively high wind velocity was checked near windward inlet, but near leeward outlet and indoor very low wind velocity near to zero was checked . Despite of much influent air, indoor temperature was watched as high values uniformly due to inadequate air flow in greenhouse and low ventilation efficiency of the greenhouse.

Recently according to the fashion of well-being, it is increasing that heat recovery ventilator is applied to the apartment housing, But the uniform locations of inlet and outlet in each room may provide better indoor air quality than ununiform locations of inlet and outlet. Proper design of air supply system requires information concerning the gas concentration difference between the ventilation effectiveness at the breathing line. This paper presents models to predict the gas concentration difference and the ventilation effectiveness, based on the two cases with proper number of outlets. As one of the results it is desirable to set the outlet location near the furniture which produce the contamination gas so much.

In this study, we tried to examine how the kinking of the fire hose affects the time taken for initial water discharge by measuring and analyzing the time taken for initial water discharge with different number of kinks at different locations of the hose. The average time taken for initial water discharge was obtained by measuring the time in the unkinked state of the fire hose. Based on this standard, we conducted the experiment by selecting the kinking locations in the hose near the water outlet and nozzle, and setting the number of kinks to 3, 6, 9, and 12. The results of this study are as follows: First, if the fire hose has 5 kinks or more near the nozzle, no water was released. Second, when comparing the case of no kinks and 4 kinks near the nozzle, there was no significant difference in the time taken for initial water discharge. Third, when the fire hose was kinked 10 times near the outlet, the time required for initial water discharge increased by 1.62 seconds on average compared to the case with no kinking, but there was no problem with water discharge. Lastly, regarding the kinking locations of the fire hose, it was found that the greater the number of kinks near the nozzle than near the outlet, the greater the effect on the discharge. As a result, it is concluded that it would be preferable to install non-kinking devices near the nozzle of the fire hose.
