  • CFC-12 used in mobile air conditioning(MAC) system has been replaced by R-134a, a type of HFC refrigerant, from 1991 to 1994. R-134a has since been widely used as a refrigerant of a mobile air conditioner. However, it is one of the six main green house gases listed in Kyoto Protocol, which makes it imperative to regulate its emission and develop alternative refrigerants. In this study, the concentration of leaked R-134a was measured using VT(Variable Temperature) shed and Running loss test shed to analyze the level of air conditioner refrigerant leaked in a vehicle. According to the analysis of the concentration of R-134a leaked from a vehicle parked, annual leakage amount of R-134a was in the range of 6.46~13.28 g/yr. The figure was similar with the leakage from the mobile air conditioning system currently used. In a study using the same vehicle model, a vehicle equipped with dual evaporation system had a higher leakage rate of refrigerant than a vehicle with a single evaporation system. It appears that the added fittings and joints of the dual evaporator system led to higher leakage rate. Besides, the analysis of the change in R-134a concentration under various car speed found that more refrigerant leaked under high speed(100km/hr) and but the volume of the wind did not affect to the variation of refrigerant leakage.

  • 냉매 충전량과 이차유체의 입구조건은 $CO_2$용 열펌프시스템의 성능실험에서 중요한 제어변수이다. 따라서, 열펌프사이클의 적용과 난방성능 향상을 위해 제어변수의 특성을 조사하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서, $CO_2$용 열펌프 사이클의 성능 실험은 여러 가지 냉매 충전량에서 이차유체 입구조건에 변화를 주어 수행 되었다. 실험결과, 난방COP는 냉매 충전량이 증가함에 따라 1158g의 냉매 충전량에서 최대가 되었다가 감소하는 경향이 나타나며, 이는 COP가 최대가 되는 냉매충전량이 존재함을 나타낸다. 또한, 난방성능은 가스쿨러내 이차유체의 질량유량의 증가에 따라 증가하였다. 가스냉각기내 2차유체의 입구은도가 $10^{\circ}C$에서 $40^{\circ}C$로 증가하면, 난방용량, 압축일량, 토출압력은 각각 -8.57%, -35.89%, 32.78%로 변화했으며, 증발기 2차유체의 입구 온도가 감소하였을 때 난방COP는 감소하는 경향을 보였다.

  • Little information is available for emission pathway even if HFC-134a that is known as one of the major greenhouse gases has been broadly used in Korea. This paper attempts to clarify the emission characteristics of HFC-134a used for refrigerant of cold drinking vending machines (CDVMs) at the use- and disposal-phase. We measured the residual amounts in the scrap CDVMs of 47 by applying commercial recover for refrigerant. The first-order kinetic model was introduced and the emission rate would be proportional to the remaining quantity of refrigerant. The emission factor at the use-phase was determined indirectly to be $6.9{\pm}0.7$ %/yr within a confidence interval of 95%, using information on residual amount and elapsed operation time at the disposal point. Correspondingly, the annual emission rate of HFC-134a per CDVM was determined to be 11.6 g. The average residual rate of HFC-134a in scrap CDVMs was assessed to be $62.5{\pm}2.2%$, leading to a potential emission amount of 144.8 g per scrap CDVM. The chemical compositions of refrigerants from scrap passenger vehicles are quite similar to those of new refrigerants, suggesting that the refrigerants from scrap passenger vehicles could be reused. During the recovering process of refrigerant, the recovered refrigerant was contaminated by compressor lubricant that accounted for about 30% in weight. It is necessary to separate the refrigerant from the recovered material contaminated by lubricant for recycling and reuse the refrigerant.

  • This study developed a program for detecting charged refrigerant amount in system air-conditioner. System air-conditioner is an air-conditioning system with multiple indoor units. Due to the complexity of the system, it is more difficult to detect the refrigerant amount charged in system air-conditioner than in a general single air-conditioner. Experiments were performed for 6 HP outdoor units with 3 indoor units in a psychrometric calorimeter. The experimental amount of charged refrigerant were ranged from 60% to 140% with 10% increasement. Fuzzy algorithm were emploeed for detecting the charged refrigerant amount in a system air-conditioner. The experimental data were used for curve fitting for general ranges for indoor and outdoor temperature conditions. membership function were determined for whole ranges of experimentally measured data and rulebase were defined for each amount of refrigerant charge. Developed program successfully predicted the measured data within 10% resolution range.

  • 증발기와 응축기로 폐회로 냉동 시스템을 구성하여 기존 사용 냉매인 R22와 대체냉매로써 부각되고 있는 R407C, R410A를 사용하여 여러 가지 관 직경과 휜 형상을 가지는 열교환기에 대한 열전달량, 질량유량, 열교환기를 지나가는 냉매의 온도분포 그리고 공기측 압력강하를 측정하였다. 모든 열교환기에서 냉매의 질량유량이 증가함에 따라 열전달량은 증가하였다. R22와 R407C의 경우에 증발기측에서는 거의 같은 열전달량을 나타냈고 응축기측에서는 R407C가 전체적으로 열전달량이 높게 나타났다. 그리고 열교환기의 전달량은 유로의 형상보다는 냉매의 질량유량과 전열면적에 더 많은 영향을 받는다. 공기측 압력 강하는 열수가 많은 열교환기의 경우가 작게 나타났으며 슬릿휜을 가지는 열교환기의 압력강하가 가장 크고 웨이비휜을 가지는 열교환기가 가장 작게 나타났다.

  • Refrigerant mischarging is one of the most frequently occurring failure modes in air conditioners, and both undercharging and overcharging degrade cooling performance. Therefore, it is important to accurately determine the amount of charged refrigerant. In this study, a support vector machine (SVM) model was developed to multi-classify the refrigerant mischarge through steady-state identification via fuzzy clustering techniques. For steady-state identification, a fuzzy clustering algorithm was applied to the air conditioner operation data using the difference between moving averages. The identification results using the proposed method were compared with those using existing steady-state determination techniques studied through the inversed Fisher's discriminant ratio (IFDR). Subsequently, the main features were selected using minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR) considering the correlation among candidate features, and an SVM multi-classification model was devised using the derived features. The proposed method achieves satisfactory accuracy and robustness from test data collected in the new domain.

  • A popular type of residential air conditioner is the split system which has two separate units: indoor and outdoor units During field installation of the split system, the potential exists for not setting the charge exactly to the manufacturer´s specifications. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of the refrigerant charge on the performance of the air conditioner. An air conditioner with capillary tube expansions was tested for various refrigerant charges. The results indicated that the more charge resulted in the more flowrate of the refrigerant. The flowrate of the refrigerant was one of the most important factors to understand the e(sects of the charge on the performance of the air conditioner with capillary tube expansions. Under-charge results in wide region of superheated vapor of the refrigerant in the evaporator, while over-charge results in high temperature of the liquid refrigerant in the evaporator.

  • As modern houses are constructed with high-density and high-insulation, there is benefit to reduce energy consumption, but there are many side effects raised from polluted air. To solve the problem, a ventilation system is used to improve a indoor air quality. In this study, we tested the parallel flow type heat exchanger used in a heat exchanger of an automotive air conditioner. And we experimentally estimate ventilation performance of HRV(heat recovery ventilator) with heat-pipe according to working fluid filling quantity and ventilation. The working fluid was R22, which was filled from 40 to 60 (%vol.) by 10(%vol.). Ventilation based on the front velocity was measured from 0.3 m/s to 1.5 m/s by 0.3 m/s intervals. Refrigerant filling quantity with the highest efficiency was found to depend on the ventilation. From this study the optimal refrigerant filling quantity in accordance with the ventilation of the detachable heat pipes was found experimentally.

  • Destruction of HFC-134a from ELV (End of Life Vehicle) were determined in a gasification-melting demonstration system of municipal solid waste (100ton/day). The injection system has been developed for the uniform injection of HFC-134a to the gasification-melting system. The destruction characteristics of HFC-134a and analysis of exhaust gases have been performed. The destruction efficiency was 99.995% for HFC-134a feeding of 3 kg/hr and the exhaust gases such as CO, SOx, NOx, HCl and HF satisfied the environmental standards.
