Abstract

These days, household condensing gas boilers are an obligatory trend. The use of environmentally-friendly boilers that emit less pollutant, such as CO and NOx, are strongly recommended. In this paper, heat flow analysis of the additional inner groove in the tube of the secondary latent heat exchanger was studied to increase the efficiency. A 20% difference in the heat transfer area was obtained with the addition of an inner grove, which showed an increase in the amount of heat transferred. This was confirmed using three-dimensional numerical analysis. With the addition of an inner groove, the exit temperature increased by $1^{\circ}C$. This increase in exit temperature was considered to be a substantial increase in the efficiency of the condensing gas boiler.

현재 가정용 콘덴싱 가스보일러의 사용을 의무화 하고 있는 추세이며, CO나 NOx와 같은 오염 물질의 배출이 적은 친환경 보일러 사용을 적극 추천하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 효율을 증가시키기 위하여 가정용 콘덴싱 가스보일러에 사용되는 2차열교환기인 잠열교환기의 튜브(관) 내부에 이너 그루브 형상을 추가 하여 열유동에 대한 해석을 실시하였다. 이너 그루브 형상이 추가됨에 따라서 전열면적은 약 20% 증가하였으며, 이에 따라 열전달량이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었고, 이를 3차원 수치해석을 이용하여 확인하였다. 또한 이너 그루브 형상을 추가했을 경우 이너 그루브 형상이 없는 잠열교환기 보다 출구 온도가 약 $1^{\circ}C$ 증가하였고, 이는 가정용 콘덴싱 가스보일러의 효율증가에 상당한 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.
