Based on the measurement data of the particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of less than or equal to a nominal 10 ${\mu}m$ (PM10) by the ${\beta}$-ray absorption method (BAM) equipped with an inlet heater and the gravimetric method (GMM) at two coastal sites in Korea, the optimal inlet heater temperature was estimated. By using a gas/particle equilibrium model, Simulating Composition of Atmospheric Particles at Equilibrium 2 (SCAPE2), water content in aerosols was estimated with varying temperature to find the optimal temperature increase to make the PM10 concentration by BAM comparable to that by GMM. It was estimated that the heated air temperature inside the BAM should be increased up to $35{\sim}45^{\circ}C$ at both sites. At this temperature range, evaporation of volatile aerosol components was minor. Similar ($30{\sim}50^{\circ}C$) temperature range was also obtained from the calculation based on the absolute humidity which changed with ambient absolute humidity and chemical composition of hygroscopic species.

The regenerative evaporative cooler(REC) is to cool a stream of air using evaporative cooling effect without an increase in the humidity ratio. In the regenerative evaporative cooler, the air can be cooled down to a temperature lower than its inlet wet-bulb temperature. Besides the cooling performance, for practical application of the regenerative evaporative cooler, the compactness of the system is also a very important factor to be considered. In this respect, three different configurations, i.e., the flat plate type, the corrugated plate type, and the finned channel type are investigated and compared for the most compact configuration. The optimal structure of each configuration is obtained individually to minimize the volume for a given effectiveness within a limit of the pressure drop. Comparing the three optimal structures, the finned channel type is found to give the most compact structure among the considered configurations. The volume of the regenerative cooler can be reduced to 1/8 by adopting the finned channel type as compared to that of the flat plate type.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the performance characteristics of a $CO_2$ cooling and water heating system using a twin-rotary compressor with the compression volume ratio of 0.6. The cooling performances of the $CO_2$ heat pump were measured and analyzed with the variations of charge amount, EEV opening, and compressor frequency. In addition, the performance of the combined system including cooling and water heating was also measured and analyzed by varying inlet temperature of the EEV. As a result, the optimal normalized charge and cooling COP in the cooling mode were 0.307 and 2.06, respectively. The application of the water heating into the $CO_2$ heat pump improved the cooling performance over 78% and decreased the EEV inlet temperature by $8^{\circ}C$, which can increase system reliability.

The objective of this study is to provide numerical and experimental data that can be used to investigate the performance characteristics of a flat plate fin-tube evaporator in household and commercial refrigerators under frosting conditions. Computer simulations with variations of operating conditions such as air inlet temperature, relative humidity, and geometries were performed to find out optimal design parameters of a fin-tube evaporator for household and commercial refrigerators. The tube-by-tube method was used in the simulation and the frost growth model was considered under frosting conditions. The developed analytical model predicted the decreasing rates of heat transfer capacity and air flow rate ratio within ${\pm}$10% compared to the experimental results for a refrigerator under real operating conditions. As a result, the frost thickness at $3^{\circ}C$ & 80% is increased 40% than that of $-3^{\circ}C$ & 80%, and the frost thickness at $3^{\circ}C$ & 90% is increased 30% than that of $3^{\circ}C$ & 60%. Accordingly, the operating time of the evaporator in the refrigerator was reduced with the increase of the decreasing rate of air flow rate ratio at each condition.

석탄가스화복합발전소의 가스터빈 공기압축기와 공기분리장치 간의 최적 연계설계를 위한 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서는 복수형 증류탑공정의 공기분리장치를 사용하였으며, 증류탑공정의 특성으로부터 압축기와의 연계조건인 공기추출량, 공기추출압력 및 공기/질소 열교환 조건들을 정의, 수식화하였다. 공기분리장치와 연계된 가스터빈용 공기압축기의 성능변화는 유선곡률방법과 압력손실모델을 결합한 해석방법을 사용하였으며, 예측결과들을 실제 압축기성능 시험결과와 비교하여 예측정확도를 검증하였다. 본 압축기성능 해석방법을 이용하여, 압축기와 공기분리장치의 연계조건인 열교환기의 핀치포인트 온도차, 추출공기량 및 추출 공기압력이 압축기성능에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 검토하였다. 공기추출량이 늘어나거나 핀치포인트 온도차가 커질수록, 압축기의 압축비 및 소요동력은 증가하였다. 반면에, 압축기 효율은 공기추출량의 증가에 따라 고압공기추출시에는 저하되고, 저압공기추출시에는 향상되었다. 더나아가, 압축기의 일반화된 입구조건과 효율간의 특성곡선을 통해, 압축기 효율을 극대화 할 수 있는 압축기/공기분리장치간의 최적연계조건을 제시하였다.

Spirulina platensis NIES 39의 최적 배양 조건을 확립하고자 본 연구에서는 여러 광원에 따른 균체의 생장양상을 확인하여 보았다. 이를 기반으로 형광등 및 LED 광생물반응기를 개발하여 균체농도 증가, 이산화탄소 고정화속도 및 효율, 클로로필 생산에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 배양에 공급되는 이산화탄소 농도 및 유속은 명 조건에서 약 4 h 주기로 10 min간 5% $CO_2$, 0.1 vvm임이 확인되었다. 내부조사형 형광등 광원 및 저전력형 SMD 타입 적색광 LED 광생물반응기는 최대 배양 건조 균체량이 1.411 g/L를 넘지 못하였지만, 조도를 높인 파워형 적색광 LED (색온도 12000 K)에서는 최대 건조 균체량이 1.758 g/L가 되었다. 이 경우 이산화탄소 고정화 속도 및 효율 또한 증가되었다. 총 클로로필 생산량은 균체량 증가에 비례하여 증가하였지만, 건조균체질량당 생산량은 청색광 LED조건(색온도 7500 K)에서 더 높은 수치를 보여주었다. 그리고 최대 균체생장조건(DCW)에서 이산화탄소 농도는 주입량(5% $CO_2/Air$, v/v) 대비 유실률은 0.15% 이내로 확인되었다.

The optimal design of two stage evaporation & absorption system which is related to the large temperature difference system was investigated numerically in the absorption refrigeration system. The concentrations at inlet & oulet of absorber are 62.9% and 56.9%, but in two stage absorption system the values are 62.2% and 56.2%. Therefore strong solution & weak solution became diluted than the standard value. The amount of weak solution circulation can be reduced in absorption refrigeration system, and the sensible heat load is more reduced to enhance the COP of system. As UAR is increased, COP becomes larger, and this means the role of top section is more important than bottom section in two stage evaporation & absorption system. But the increase of COP becomes slower at 0.7 of UAR ratio. The performance of Type2 is higher than Type1 in COP with the flow direction of cooling waters. This phenomena is due to the active absorption of vapor -absorption & lower temp. cooling water is more effective. The pressure at bottom section becomes higher & that at top section becomes lower and therefore the circulation rate can be diminished more.
