To develop chemical heat pump of higher energy density and efficiency heat-release characteristics accompanied by exothermic hydration reaction in packed bed, $Ca(OH)_2/CaO$ reactor, are examined in a lab-scale unit. We have studied the enhancement effect of inserted fins in cylindical packed bed reactor. The results obtained by numerical analysis about profiles of temperature, completion time of reaction and exothermic heat amount released from the reactor read the insertion of fins in reactor can reduce the reaction completion time by half and the rate of thermochemical reaction depends on the temperature and concentration, and it is also governed by the boundary conditions and the rate of heat transfer in the particle packed bed.

Recently. we interested in renewable energy due to cost increase of the crude oil, etc. In this study solar assisted hybrid heat pump system that uses the solar heat and air as heat source analyzed by experimentally.'rho system could runs at dual mode. One is thermal storage mode of solar energy at day time and the other is heat pump mode with low temperature air as heat source at night time. In case of setting temperature over the limited range. high temperature water heated at the solar energy collecting tubes supplied to the storage tank. As results. it is founded that the heat pump performance Is higher than general heat pump which using the only air as a heat source. The developed system could be used as main healing equipment for the panel heating for the residential house.

The present study has been conducted to develop a heat pump system using river water of temperature energy which not only belongs to unutilized energy but is a kind of good heat source due to maintain its temperature in a certain degree regardless of seasonal variation. The system did not meet the proposed performance after setup. In this paper, the system performance affected by refrigerant Oil, by pressure drop, or by other factors has been discussed. The followings were obtained : (1) Refrigerant Oil mixture rate was 2.5 in weight percentage, (2) Pressure drop through evaporator was 29.1kPa($3.1^{\circ}C$ in saturated tempearture) (3) Pressure drop from the end of evaporator to compressor inlet was 39.8kPa($4.0^{\circ}C$ in saturated tempearture). (4) The system performance can to be improved by modifying a part of pipe line to compressor, and reducing pressure drop through heat exchangers.

The cooling load in winter season is significant in many commercial buildings and hotels because of the usage of office equipments and high efficiency of wall insulation. The development of a multi-heat pump that can cover heating and cooling simultaneously for each indoor unit is required. In this numerical study, a 4-room simultaneous heating and cooling heat pump system was modeled and its performance was calculated at each operating mode. Also, performance analysis was compared with experimental results.

This study was conducted for analysis of a heat pump system using waste heat in an enclosed space such as a green house. The model was developed with mathematical equations in literature and Engineering Equation Solver (EES) was used to get the solution of the developed equations. The simulation results have 5% of reliability comparing the results with actual test data of heat pump system's dynamic operation. The operating performance of the system was calculated with variation of working fluid temperature in the thermal storage tank such as $25^{\circ}C$, $35^{\circ}C$, $45^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$. As a result, the system's the highest total heating capacity shows 280 kWh and the storage tank's operating time decreased as the starting storage tank's temperature was high.

Performance evaluation and economic estimation were conducted on the water to water GSHP (Ground Source Heat Pump) installed in existing building. Ground heat exchanger was a closed vertical loop type and sized to be 5 boreholes and 100m depth per borehole. Operation efficiency of the system shows that, COP increased from 3.0 to 4.2 with entering water temperature in heating operation, however, COP decreased from 5.0 to 3.7 in cooling operation. Economic estimation was analyzed by LCC (Life Cycle Cost) method and it showed that GSHP could save 68% of cost compare to the conventional oil source. Thus, despite of the large amount of initial cost, GSHP has a economic advantage to the other energy sources.

환경친화적인 냉매를 탐색하는 과정에서 자연냉매 $CO_2$는 1990년대 초에 많은 사람들의 관심을 다시 끌게 되었고, 그 이후 구미 선진국 위주로 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 특히 $CO_2$는 탄화수소계 냉매가 안전상의 이유로 사용되기 어려운 차량용 냉방 시스템과 온수제조용 열펌프 시스템에 대하여 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔으며 최근에는 가정용 냉난방 시스템에 대한 연구도 진행되고 있다. $CO_2$를 냉매로 사용하는 냉동 시스템에 있어서 증발기는 시스템의 중요한 구성 요소이므로 제품 개발을 위해서는 증발기에서의 열전달 및 압력손실 특성에 대한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. $CO_2$의 증발 열전달에 있어서 작동매채인 $CO_2$의 비체적, 비열, 점성계수, 표면장력 등의 물성치가 크게 변화하므로 기존에 널리 사용되던 냉매의 중발열전달과는 상당히 다른 결과가 나타난다. 예를 들면 기존의 냉매에서는 건도가 증가함에 따라 열전달계수가 증가하는 것으로 알려져 있으나 $CO_2$의 경우에는 오히려 열전달계수가 감소하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 이처럼 $CO_2$는 증발열전달 과정에서 기존 냉매의 경향으로부터 예측하기 힘든 결과가 나타나므로 다양한 형상의 증발기에 대하여 실험적으로 압력손실과 열전달계수를 구하는 연구는 성공적인 $CO_2$ 냉동 시스템의 개발을 위하여 필수 불가결하다. 본고에서는 $CO_2$ 냉동 시스템의 개발에 도움이 될 수 있도록 지금까지 국내외에서 수행된 $CO_2$ 증발 열전달에 관한 문헌조사를 통하여 연구결과들을 비교, 분석하고 향후의 연구 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

In this research, a heat pump system with a heat source network is suggested which utilizes solar heat and ground heat as heat source for cooling and heating. This paper describes the summary of the suggested system and the results of the annual energy simulation. The heating and cooling loads, the electric consumption and the COP were calculated by TRNSYS 16 and evaluated in the cases of different local conditions and different system compositions. In the results, the superiority of the suggested system has been quantitatively evaluated comparing with the conventional heat pump system using one heat source. Furthermore, it was more significant in cold climate, in which the heating COP was 146% increased compared the air source heat pump system, than it in subtropical climate, 119% increased.

This paper is a study on integrated air-conditioning system for 1-ton class commercial vehicle based on electric vehicle. In the case of an electric commercial vehicle, since the opening and closing of the door is frequently performed in order to get in and out of the cargo, the heat loss largely occurs. Therefore, the heating and cooling load is required to be larger than the electric vehicle. As a result, the energy consumed by the heating and cooling system is larger than the passenger electric car in order to satisfy the heat comfort required by passengers. In order to overcome these disadvantages, we performed research using an efficient integrated air conditioning system. Finally, the design and analysis of a heat pump system for heating and a electrical compressor for cooling need to be proceed to develop a high-efficiency air conditioning system for improving the commerciality of 1 ton-class electric trucks and expanding the industrial ecosystem in the electric truck sector.

The aim of this study is to verify the performance of water-to-air multi-heat pump system with a vertical U-tube GLHX(U-tube system) and a double tube GLHX(double tube system), which were installed in a school building located in Asan. For analyzing the performance of the GSHP system, we monitored various operating da~ including the water temperature of inlet and outlet of the ground heat exchanger, mass flow rate, and power consumption. Daily average COP of the single U-tube system and the double tube system were 4.5 and 4.2 at cooling mode and were 3.5 and 3.8 at heating mode. As a result, We know that performance of water-to-air multi-heat pump unit is reliable at actual condition operated in a part load conditions for all day.
