Abstract

In this study, a simulation program was developed, which predicts the performance of cold-air forced circulation type air cooled showcase. The showcase has an excellent display effect in addition to preserving the grocery. In the program, the compressor was analyzed using performance data supplied by the manufacturer and the capillary tube pressure drop was analyzed using a homogeneous model. The evaporator and condenser were analyzed by dividing the heat exchangers into small elements, where energy balance and appropriate heat transfer correlations were used. A showcase model with two 3/4 HP compressors, capillary tubes of 1.6 mm inner diameter, a fin-and-tube evaporator and condenser was tested, and the results are compared with the predicted values. It is shown that both evaporation and condensation temperatures are adequately predicted by the program.

본 연구에서는 식료품의 진열과 보관에 사용되며 전시효과가 우수한 냉기 강제순환식 쇼케이스의 성능을 예측하는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 압축기의 성능해석에는 제조사에서 제공한 성능선도를 사용하였고 모세관 내 압력손실은 균질유동 모델을 사용하여 계산하였다. 증발기와 응축기는 미소체적으로 구분하여 에너지 균형을 고려하였고 관내측과 공기측 열전달계수는 적절한 상관식으로부터 구하였다. 압축기로 3/4 마력급 왕복동식 2개를 사용하고, 팽창장치로는 내경 1.6 mm의 모세관을, 응축기와 증발기로는 상호 공유형태의 핀-튜브 열교환기를 적용한 쇼케이스 시제품에 대해 성능시험을 수행하고 시험결과와 비교했을 때, 본 프로그램은 시제품의 증발 온도와 응축 온도를 적절히 예측함을 확인하였다.
