Due to global warming and depletion of fossil fuels, technologies reducing $CO_2$ emission and increasing fuel efficiency simultaneously are required. An exhaust gas heat recovery system is a technology to satisfy both issues. This study analyses three types of heat exchanger installed on an exhaust pipe. In case of plate type heat exchanger, back pressure rapidly increased and maximum cylinder pressure reduced in high speed and maximum load, and back pressure increased over twice and specific fuel consumption also increased up to 2% which were the highest increasing rate. In case of fin tube type, the amounts of exhaust emissions and specific fuel consumption rate were less than the other two types. The effect of shell and tube was in the middle. Making a decision by only the effect on engine performance, a fin tube type is the best for exhaust heat recovery systems.

Interest in the energy efficiency and carbon reduction technology is increasing. Many studies have done on the technologies of heat recovery systems, because over 30% of the total energy is released into the atmosphere with the exhaust gas flow. In this study, the Rankine cycle is analyzed in the optimum conditions given through the previous work. The result shows that the exergy efficiency is 0.53 and the output is 1.43 kW at the condition of the pressure ratio of 0.6 and the mass flow rate of 0.7.

The purpose of this study is to predict the performance of an indirect evaporative cooling system, and to evaluate its energy saving effect when applied to the exhaust heat recovery system of an air-handling unit. We derive the performance correlation of the indirect evaporative cooling system using a plastic heat exchanger based on experimental data obtained in various conditions. We predict the variations in the performance of the system for various return and outdoor air conditioning systems using the obtained correlation. We also analyze the energy saving of the system realized by the exhaust heat recovery using the typical meteorological data for several cities in Korea. The average utilization rate of the sensible cooling system for the exhaust heat recovery is 44.3% during summer, while that of the evaporative cooling system is 96.7%. The energy saving of the evaporative cooling system is much higher compared to the sensible cooling system, and was about 3.89 times the value obtained in Seoul.

Recently, automotive engineers have paid much attention to waste heat recovery technology as a possible means to improve the thermal efficiency of an automotive engine. A large displacement gasoline engine is generally a V-type engine. It is not cost effective to install two superheaters at each exhaust manifold for the heat recovery purposes. A single superheater could be installed as close to the exhaust manifold as possible for the higher recovery efficiency; however, only half of exhaust gas can be used for heat recovery. On the contrary, the exhaust temperature is decreased for the case where the superheater is installed at a junction of two exhaust tail pipes. With the fact in mind, the optimum position of a single superheater was investigated using simulation models developed from a commercial software package (i.e. AMESim). It was found that installing the superheater near the exhaust manifold could recover 3.8 kW more from the engine exhaust despite utilizing only half of the exhaust mass flow. Based on this result, the optimum layout of an automotive waste heat recovery system was developed and proposed in this paper.

Evaporative cooling is a very effective way for exhaust heat recovery that uses both latent heat and sensible heat. This study investigated the performance of a heat recovery system using evaporative cooling. The experimental apparatus comprised a plastic heat exchanger, a water spray nozzle, an air blowing fan, a water circulation pump, and measuring sensors for the temperature, humidity, and flow rate. The effectiveness of the sensible heat recovery without evaporation was measured and compared with that of the total heat recovery with evaporation. The effectiveness of the sensible and total heat recoveries decreased as the air flow rate increased, and a much higher effectiveness was obtained with the counterflow arrangement in both cases. For total heat recovery, the effectiveness increased with the water flow rate, and the parallel flow arrangement was found to be more sensitive to the water flow rate than the counterflow arrangement.

본 연구에서는 온실의 난방에 사용되는 열풍식 난방기 등의 배기 연통에 부착하여 배출되는 가스로부터 열을 회수할 수 있는 장치를 개발함에 있어서 연통과 열회수 장치간의 열 교환 성능을 3가지 상이하게 설계된 열 교환 장치(Fig. 1 참조)에 대하여 실험적으로 비교 분석하였다. Fig. 1-(a)는 열 교회수기 개발을 위해 기존에 사용한 장치로서 회수용 공기의 흐름방향이 배기 연통과 직각을 이룬 형식이며, Fig. 1-(b) 및 (c)는 열 회수 성능 개선을 위해 새로 설계된 형식으로서 각각 열 교환 파이프의 배치형식이 상이하나 회수용 공기의 흐름방향이 180도로 굴곡되는 U-자형 흐름이 이루어지도록 하였다. 실험에 사용된 공기 순환 펜의 용량은 AB-형의 경우에는 최대 25㎥/min이고, C-형 및 D-형의 경우는 공히 최대 42㎥/min으로서 송풍전압 조절장치를 이용하여 풍량을 연속적으로 조절할 수 있도록 하였다. U-자형 흐름형식인 C-형 및 D-형의 경우 흐름 방향의 굴곡으로 인한 마찰저항이 있을 것으로 예상은 했으나 당초 예상했던 것에 비해 마찰 저항이 지나치게 큰 것으로 밝혀졌다. 비록 설계된 열교환 튜브의 배열형식별 열 교환기의 외부 모양이 달라 회수기의 표면을 통한 대류 열 교환이 다소 차이를 보일 것으로 예상되지만 본 연구에서는 열 회수장치에 내장된 열 교환 튜브부분만을 통한 열 회수율을 중심으로 형식간의 성능을 비교하였다. 실험을 통하여 측정된 자료중 대표적인 예는 Fig-2와 같으며, 측정자료를 기준으로 분석된 열회수 성능에 대한 설계형식별 비교 결과는 Table-1과 같으며, 분석된 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다: 1. AB-형 열회수시스템의 경우, 초기 투자비용과 현재의 농용 전력요금 하에서 에너지 절감규모를 비교하면, 대체로 1년을 전후하여 투자에 대한 보상이 충분히 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 2. C-형 및 D-형 열회수시스템의 경우, 열 회수용 공기의 흐름방향이 동일 공간내에서 180도 굴절됨으로서 저항이 크게 발생되어 송풍 펜의 전압 증가에 따른 유속증가가 미미하였으며, 굴절형의 열교환장치는 비록 열교환면적은 직선형과 유사하더라도 송풍 펜의 공기저항이 커져서 결국 열 회수성능이 기대했던 것만큼 크게 개선되지는 못했다. 3. 송풍펜의 용량은 AB-형에 사용된 용량인 25㎥/min 전후가 적절할 것으로 판단되며, 적정 송풍 펜용량 하에서 열 회수성능은 굴절형이 직선형보다 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 다만, 곡선형은 물론 직선형에서도 열교환 튜브의 배치밀도, 튜브 길이 및 두께 등의 변화에 따른 최적화 연구가 수반되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The exhaust gas from the marine engines include a quantity of water vapor and particulate matter. The total particulate matter includes filterable particulate matter (FPM) and condensable particulate matter (CPM) that condense after releasing into the atmosphere. The portion of CPM is higher than that of FPM that is removable through the filter before discharging. An experimental setup for waste heat and water recovery and removal of CPM in the exhaust gas was tested using an industrial gas boiler in the laboratory. The water and CPM in the exhaust gas were removed through the first stage of cooling method and further removed through the second stage of absorption method. The efficiencies of water recovery were 73% after the first stage of cooling method and 90% after the second stage of absorption method. At the same time, the CPM was removed by 80-90% through the processes. The waste heat recovered could be used to process heat, and the water recovered could be used to process water in the ship. Furthermore, the CPM, which is a major source of the particulate matter but not subject to administrative regulation, could be removed effectively.

The Effluent Heat Pipe integral with the heater is a device that recreates unused thermal energy from the plant in winter, and thus reuses unused energy before releasing the exhaust heat. Through the establishment of facility horticulture and glass greenhouses, we identified the problems of our agricultural heaters, and we proposed efficient agricultural efficiency and smart control systems for optimum agricultural efficiency and smart house.
