냉각탑(Cooling Tower)은 가열된 물을 냉각, 재순환시켜 냉각수로 재사용하는 일종의 열교환장치로서, 빌딩, 호텔, 병원, 백화점 및 극장 등과 같은 대형건물의 냉동공조시스템에 필수적으로 사용되는 것은 물론이고, 주물공장, 냉동공장 및 석유화학플랜트 등의 중화학공장과 같은 대형공장에도 중요한 Utility설비 중의 하나이다. 이 냉각탑은 각 구성품의 재질은 주로 FRP와 철구조물로 되어있고, 대기 중에서 물 또는 수증기와 직접 접촉하므로 강한 부식성 환경에 노출되어 있다.(중략)

우리나라의 여름 기후는 고온 다습한 특징을 갖고 있다. 고온 다습한 지역에서는 습도가 쾌적성을 결정하는데 중요한 요소가 되기 때문에, 습도가 높으면 온도가 그다지 높지 않더라도 쉽게 무더위를 느낀다. 이러한 계절적 특성을 없애 쾌적한 생활을 영위하기 위하여 생활의 질적 향상과 더불어 공조장치의 수요가 매년 두드러지게 증가하고 있다. 특히, 실내의 경우에는 공조장치 중 대표적인 에어컨(air conditioner)으로 냉방을 행함으로써 고온 다습한 여름철의 거주공간을 개선하고 있다. 그러나 고온 다습한 환경하에서의 과다한 에어컨 사용은 인체의 온열 환경적 측면에서 오히려 불리하다. 왜냐 하면, 에어컨에서는 여름철에 잠열(latent heat)을 고려해야 함에도 불구하고 단지 현열비(sensible heat factor)로 취출온도를 결정하고 있기 때문이다. 그 결과, 실내가 과다하게 냉각되어 재실자에게 불쾌감은 물론, 심지어 냉방병도 초래할 수가 있다.

Previous plastic heat exchangers are expensive because the mold must be newly manufactured depending on the air conditioning space. On the other hand, danpla is so thin that the heat exchange performance is excellent. Moreover, danpla can be used easily in ventilation systems in view of fabrication. This study proposes correlations for the cooling performance of an indirect evaporative cooling system. The experimental apparatus consisted of a heat exchanger, spray nozzle, fan, thermostat, pump, and measuring sensors for temperature, humidity, and airflow rate. The results showed that the effectiveness decreased gradually as the airflow rate increased. In addition, there was an optimal condition in terms of effectiveness. The performance prediction correlations were determined using the experimental data from various conditions. The proposed correlations showed performance accuracies within 4 % error.

일반적으로 공기조화에 대하여 이야기할 때 온도조건은 중요하게 생각하고 습도는 부수적인 요소로 생각해버리는 경향이 있다. 그러나 습도는 공조시스템을 구성하는데 필요한 다른 요소들과 함께 매우 중요한 요소이며 산업 분야에 따라서는 최우선적으로 고려되어야 할 사항중의 하나이다. 실제로 습도는 철강류와 곡식의 저장 및 병원의 수술실을 비롯하여 제약과 반도체 산업 및 섬유의 제조공정 등의 분야에서 중요하게 다루어지고 있으며 여타 분야에서도 냉방장치의 보급과 더불어 온도에 대한 욕구가 충족되면서 습도에 대한 관심이 늘어나고 있다.

In conventional air-handling units, when the circulated air from the air-conditioned space pass through the cooling coil, the air is over-cooled to eliminate the moisture as well as to decrease the temperature. The purpose of this study is to estimate the thermal performance and energy saving of the cooling/reheating system using heat exchanger which can save both cooling energy and reheating energy by exchanging heat between the cooled air and reheated air. The energy balance equations to estimate the state of the air for each components were provided and the heat transfer rates and the energy saving rates for the system were calculated from the equations. The results showed that the energy saving was up to 40% under present conditions, and saving rates were significantly affected by the air velocity, inlet conditions and the effectiveness of heat exchanger.

In this study, we developed a system that automatically removes the scale in the piping by using electrolysis principle in order to solve the cooling performance of the refrigeration and air conditioning system by acting as heat resistance in the heat transfer process by forming the scale in the heat exchanger for refrigeration air conditioning. We want to check the performance through experiments. Therefore, by circulating the treated water using the principle of electrolysis without stopping the system, Ca, Mg and $SiO_2$ are precipitated in the form of solids and discharged to the outside of the pipe system, thereby preventing scale formation in the pipe and removing the scale. Thereby maintaining the heat transfer performance of the pipe. As a result of the experiment, the heat transfer rate of the scaled pipe was 86.66% when the heat transfer rate of the new pipe was 100, and the heat transfer rate was recovered to 90.5% when the scaled pipe was operated for 1 month. The heat transfer rate recovered to 97.86% when driving for two months and to 98.72% for three months. It was confirmed that the scaling effect of the scale formed in the piping was understood in a relatively short experiment period, and the heat transfer performance was also influenced.

The automatic hot gas by-pass technique is applied to control the capacity of refrigeration and air-conditioning system when operating at part load. In the scheme, the hot gas from the compressor is extracted and injected into the outlet of an evaporator through a hot gas by-pass valve. Thus, In this paper, the hot gas by-pass scheme for CO2 is discussed and analyzed on the basis of mass and energy conservation law. A comparative study of the schemes is performed in terms of the coefficiency of performance (COP) and cooling capacity. The operating parameters considered in this study include compressor efficiency, superheating degree, outlet temperature of gas cooler and evaporating temperature in the R744 vapor compression cycle. The main results were summarized as follows : the superheating degree, outlet temperature and evaporating temperature of R744 vapor compression refrigeration system have an effect on the cooling capacity and COP of this system. With a thorough grasp of these effect, it is necessary to design the compression refrigeration cycle using R744.

Increasing heat generation in CPUs can hamper effective recirculation and by-pass because of the large temperature difference between the exhaust and the intake air through a server room. This increases the overall temperature inside a data center and decreases the efficiency of the data center's cooling system. The purpose of the data center's cooling system is to separate the intake and exhaust air by controlling the computer room air-conditioner(CRAC). In this study, ICEPAK is used to conduct a numerical analysis of a data center's cooling system. The temperature distribution and the entire room are analyzed for different volumetric flow rates. The optimized volumetric flow rate is found for each CPU power. The heat removal and temperature distribution for CPU powers of 100, 120, and 140 W are found to be the best for a volumetric flow rate of $0.15m^3/s$. The numerical analysis is verified through RTI indicators, and the results appear to be the most reliable when the RTI value is 81.

The miniaturization of the Air Handling Unit (AHU) has become an actual need because of the restriction of the using space on the vessel. In modern AHU’s construction, in which the fan section is at the end part of the ship, it’s very difficult to select a suitable capacity of evaporators, because the fan motor emits heat. Thus, the AHU structure has been changed as the fan section has been set before the cooling coil to get temperature values similar to the designed amount. Also, the air guider is installed in order to maintain equal air distribution after it passed the fan section. So, it is possible for air to equally pass the cooling coil. It is investigated three different geometries to find the best performance. Also, It is compared with the numerical and experimental results. The study found the case 3 gives the best results. The results of this study show the possible application of the new design.

If water-chillers are arranged in series-series counterflow, compressor lift of each chiller will be decreased in comparison with water-chillers in parallel. That means that compressor power of the chillers in series will be lower than that of chillers in parallel. However, the pressure drop of the water flow through the chillers in series will increase, and thus increase the power of water pumps. This disadvantage will be made good by increasing the temperature difference of water flow through evaporator and condenser, but the water flow rates will decrease. This paper explores the optimal parameters in system of series-series counterflow for central chilled water plants such as the leaving chilled water temperature, the leaving condenser water temperature, condenser water flow rate and number of chillers in series.
