초록

본 연구는 HVAC 시스템의 성능 개선을 위해 원심 임펠러의 블레이드의 중심각, 토출구의 길이와 같은 형상을 변화시켜 수치적으로 해석하였다. 임펠러 내의 속도장, 압력장, 난류 강도, 온도장을 계산하기 위하여 상용 CFD 코드인 FLUENT를 사용하였다. 시스템의 워밍업에 상관없이 히터 파워 레벨이 증가하면 임펠러 내 주위의 온도는 외기 투입시 온도가 증가하였지만 내기 순환 시에는 온도가 오히려 감소하였다. 결과적으로 성능 개선을 통한 $CO_2$ 감소는 블레이드 중심각 및 토출구 길이의 변화를 통한 유속 및 유량의 변화를 통해 이룰 수 있었다.

In this research, various cases of centrifugal impeller for HVAC system have been numerically analyzed by changing center angle of blades and length of outlet. Commercial CFD code, FLUENT has been used to calculate velocity, pressure, turbulence intensity, and temperature that can lead numerous results. Regardless of warming up, when the heater power level was increased, the temperature inside surrounding impeller also increased due to flowing outer air, but the temperature decreased because of flowing inner air. Consequently, the variation of central angle of blades and length of outlet led difference of velocity and flow rate which can reduce $CO_2$ in gas emission.
