Abstract: The ice storage system for a small high temperature cold store is introduced in details with the principle, structure, design and experimental methods. This system was tested in all possible conditions, and the performance in super cooling condition was compared with the ordinary condition. The results show that the cold store cooling system using ice storage technology could adapt to the power supply better, and reduce the power expense effectively.

Abstract: An simulation model for pure electric vehicle air conditioning system is established in MATLAB/ Simulink environment. The critical component of air conditioning system is selected and simulated. Fuzzy logic control method is used in AC motor controlling strategy. Combined with ADVISOR, the total vehicle energy consumption and AC energy consumption are simulated and calculated. The research indicate that by using Fuzzy logic control led AC system, the vehicle’s economcial effeciency improved. Life mileage is longer than the EV with traditional AC system and a better effect of energy saving is achieved.

Abstract: This paper described the structure and working principle of porous window based on the unsaturated porous media evaporative refrigeration. The method and standardization for calculating and evaluating the performance of porous window have been put forward. The influences of environmental parameters and heat transfer coefficient on the refrigeration performance of porous window placed on slope roof and flat roof are investigated by numerical simulation. The calculation results show that the refrigerating performance of porous window placed on slope roof is better than that of porous window placed on flat roof. At the same time, It is pointed out that porous window placed on slope roof is beneficial for building energy efficiency.

Abstract: The operating records of a typical industrial refrigeration plant in Xiamen, China are analyzed. Based on the results, the ratio of the heat exhaust of the operating condensers to that of the total condensers is calculated over each time period to obtain the regulation of part load. The energy consumption and the payback period are calculated for two typical refrigerating plants under different schemes based on the regulation of part load. Results show that energy savings will be 53.6% when condensers are optimally configured based on such regulation. The payback period is 0.8-1.7 years in some cases, whilst in other cases there is actually no additional investment required.

Abstract: An experimental setup is designed and built to study the operation characteristics of the air-cooled heat pump system for small residential in this paper. Based on the experimental setup, the characteristics of the energy efficiency ratio(EER) and cooling capacity have been researched when the outlet temperature of cooling water and outdoor environment temperature change. The experimental data demonstrate that the cooling capacity and EER of the system increases with increasing outlet cooling water temperatures and decreases with increasing outdoor environment temperatures. In addition, the correlation of the system EER is calculated by using the least square method based on the experimental data.

Abstract: One-stage pre-cooled mixture refrigerant cycle can be applied in small-scale LNG plant and be special suitable for skit mounted LNG plant. It has different character with the C3MR cycle used in large-scale LNG plant. The optimization of the mixture refrigerant is carried out using HYSYS software. The effect of the main process parameters on the performance of the cycle is calculated and discussed. The result shows that appropriate ranges of the process parameters exist. Higher and lower values of the parameters will increase the energy consumption significantly. The results also indicate that the optimization of the one-stage pre-cooled mixture refrigerant cycle can obtain rather high energy efficiency that is competitive with that of the SMR which is widely employed in small-scale LNG plant.

Abstract: On the basis of analysis of ventilation requirement and CO concentration distribution character in dead-end tunneling, this paper designed the ventilation equipment layout. Furthermore, a control strategy which includes normal ventilation mode and gun smoke discharging mode is established. In view of expert experience and numerical simulation results dead-end tunneling, fuzzy control is adopted to deal with this problem. Control rules principle is described in detail. Applying direct torque speed adjustment mode, an experimental system is designed and implemented. Partial experimental results show that gun smoke emission process is fast in order to increase efficiency, while normal ventilation mode is adjustable air flow for energy conservation.

The results show that the tread of coefficient of performance(COP) and cooling capacity of the system is similar along with the heat transfer tube length, and the research for the optimization design about spiral condenser heat exchanger provides the theoretical support.

Abstract: The desiccant based hybrid air conditioning system can control temperature and humidity separately, which consists of adsorption desiccant system and compression type refrigeration system. The adsorption desiccant system obtains the moisture power, and the compression type refrigeration can obtain sensible heat load. Generally, the regenerated energy consumption of the desiccant wheel is very large in the total energy consumption, using electric power, waste heat or renewable energy (solar etc). Heat recovery from the condenser considered as only regenerated energy in the new type adsorption desiccant based hybrid air conditioning system is proposed and discussed in this paper. This method can reduce much energy consumption, and make the air conditioning system structure simple.

Abstract: The outer surface temperature of cold insulation structure must be higher than air dew point temperature is stipulated in national standard.But the outer surface temperature of cold insulation structure and air dew point temperature normally wave in a certain range with the change of environmental parameters. In Practical application, it is difficult to determine the relationship between these two temperatures. Functional relationship between the outer temperature, air dew point temperature and environmental temperature or humidity is fitted.The influence of the air temperature and humidity is analyzed. Some suggestions about design and evaluation index of cold insulation are offered based on this research.
