Vertical closed-loop ground source heat pump systems(GSHP) have been installed widely in Korea since it can extract moderate temperature level of geothermal heat in a small area. As a ground heat exchanger, a vertical closed -loop type with brine circulation is mostly preferred since it is simple and less harmful to ground environment. However, it requires a secondary heat exchange loop between the refrigerant in a heat pump and the brine. By adding a geothermal heat exchanger in the secondary heat exchange loop, circulation pumps should be attached and the temperature difference between refrigerant and ground is increased, which are important parts of performance degradation. In this paper, annual and seasonal performances of direct expansion(DX) geothermal heat pump were estimated mathematically as an alternative of classical indirect geothermal heat pump based on the annual performance evaluation. As results, DX geothermal heat pump showed 43% higher annual performance than the classical U-tube geothermal heat pump.

The investment in the technology of using a combined heat source is insufficient, which utilizes the advantages of various heat sources to maximize the potential energy and at the same time increases the performance of the heat pump. In this study, as basic data for the development of a high-efficiency hybrid heat pump system that actively connects and uses various heat sources, simulations were conducted for the heat pumps in two cases where geothermal and hydrothermal heat were applied respectively. In May, COP increased by about 27.3% compared to geothermal heat. In February, the COP percentage decrease of hydrothermal heat compared to geothermal heat is -6.9%. In May, total energy consumption can be reduced by 21.1% when hydrothermal is applied compared to geothermal heat. In February, the total energy consumption increases by 3.4%.

본 연구는 연료전지 자동차용 공기조화기의 난방성능평가를 위하여 기존의 전반적인 히트펌프 시스템 중 공기열원 히트펌프 시스템의 증발기를 판형열교환기로 교체하여 시스템에 흐르는 냉매와 연료전지 스택 폐열을 직접 열교환이 가능한 수열원 이용이 가능한 난방시스템의 성능실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과에서 압축기의 회전수가 높을수록 소비동력이 증가하였다. 공기열원 이용방식의 경우 압축기 회전수가 1,200rpm이고 EEV개도가 25%인 경우 $COP_h$가 2.03으로 가장 높게 나타났고, 같은 압축기의 회전수에서 수열원 시스템은 EEV개도가 75% 및 스택 폐열의 온도가 $50^{\circ}C$인 경우 $COP_h$가 9.42로 가장 높게 나타났다.

The cooling load in winter is significant in buildings and hotels because of the usage of office equipments and the high efficiency of wall insulation. Hence, the development of a multi-heat pump that can cover heating and cooling simultaneously for each indoor unit is required. In this study, the performance of a simultaneous heating and cooling heat pump was investigated in the heat recovery mode (HR mode). The system adopted a variable speed compressor using R410A with four indoor units and one outdoor unit. In the HR mode, the capacity and COP were improved as compared with those in the cooling or heating mode because the waste heat in the outdoor unit was utilized as useful heat in the indoor units. However, energy imbalance between heating and cooling capacity of each indoor unit was observed in the 2H-1C HR mode. Therefore, the performance of the system in the 2H-1C HR mode was enhanced by controlling refrigerant flow rate through the outdoor unit.

The ambient air is commonly used as low-temperature heat sources for heat pump operation. However, the coefficient of performance (COP) of the air -water heat pump is decreased with the ambient air temperature drop. In this study to solve this problem , the AVACTHE(Automatic Variable Area Capillary Type Heat Exchanger) with 3 levels of heat exchange area(0, 1495.4, 1794.5$\textrm{cm}^2$) was installed in the refrigerant circuit of the heat pump. The AVACTHE effect on the performance of heat pump was tested with the ambient air temperature variation. The high level COP of the heat pump could be achieved by the AVACTHE installation when below -5$^{\circ}C$ of the ambient air temperature.

Thermodynamic analysis of water-to-water heat pump system based on the first and second law of thermodynamics is carried out in this study. This analysis shows the distribution of irreversibilities throughout the system components and informs us of a potential improvements with the temperature condition changes. Source water temperature($T_A$), utilization water temperature($T_D$) and temperature differences (${\Delta}T_{AB}$, ${\Delta}T_{CD}$) are important factors to affect system performances such as component irreversibilities, exergetic efficiency and COPH. Advantages and disadvantages with these factors are discussed. Second law optimization phenomena with $T_A$ and ${\Delta}T_{AB}$ are also indicated.

Heat pump drying has a great potential for energy saving due to its high energy efficiency in comparison to conventional air drying. The heat pump dryer is usually operated at the temperature less than $50^{\circ}C$ and the drying temperature is limited to the operating temperature of the heat pump system. In order to increase the drying temperature, the special box-type heat pump dryer has been developed. The dryer uses the two-cycle heat pump system which has the two heat pump cycles for high and low temperature heating. The high temperature cycle uses the refrigerant 124 to get the temperature greater than $80^{\circ}C$ and the low temperature cycle uses the refrigerant 134a. The drying experiment has been carried out to figure out the performance of the dryer with the selected drying material.

The objectives of this study are to analyze the performance of a heat pump system with the various heat source and to carry out economic assessment for the heat pump system. The COP of the river water and ground source heat pump system was 20% higher than that of the air source heat pump system because river water and geothermal provide stable operating temperature compared with air temperature throughout the year. In addition, the economic assessment of a heat pump system using air, river water, and geothermal as a heat source was carried out. The ratio of the life cycle operating cost to the life cycle cost increased with the increase of building capacity. The payback period was found to be less than 3.3 and 4.5 years, respectively when the capacity of the river water and ground source heat pump was larger than 10 RT.

In this paper a new type refrigerant liquid subcooling system which adopts ice storage system is proposed. And the cycle characteristicso of a new system was investigated. Since this system subcools a refrigerant in the daytime using the ice storaged by electric power in the night it is high efficiency heat pump system which have the merit of ice storage system and possible to improve the performance of the heat pump. The running to storage the ie was carried out for 10 hours in the night and th evaporating temperature was set on $-5^{\circ}C.$ Subcooling operation stayed as 430^{\circ}C$ subcooling degree and perfomed till the water in the IST(Ice storage tank) was reached $12^{\circ}C$. The experimental result showed that a new system was superior to the existing refrigeration system generally. The total cooling capacity of a new system was about 11% higher than that of the existing refrigeration system. And the COP of a new system was improved by 22% compared to the existing refrigeration system.
