최근 경제성장과 생활수준의 향상으로 냉방기기의 설치가 보편화되면서 하절기 냉방부하 증가에 따른 전력 에너지 공급상의 위기를 맞고 있다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 한국전력공사에서는 심야 전력 공급 시간에 냉동기를 가동하여, 얼음의 형태로 냉열을 저장하였다가 주간 냉방에 활용하는 빙축열 냉방 시스템을 보급 하여 주간전력 사용을 우회시키는 방법으로 전력수급의 안정화에 기여하고 예비율을 높이려는 노력을 하고 있다. 이러한 빙축열 냉방 시스템을 좀더 효율적으로 사용하기 위해서는 빙축열 냉방 시스템에 대한 연구가 필요하며 특히 빙축열 부하예측 기술과 시스템 최적제어 기술의 개발은 최대순간 요구부하의 개선은 물론 시스템의 성능향상과 에너지 소비감소에도 효과적으로 쓰일 수 있다. 따라서 본고에서는 야간에 빙축조에 저장시킨 축열만으로 주간의 냉방부하를 감당하게 하는 전부하 축열 방식을 선택하여 시스템 각 구성요소의 동적현상을 고려한 효과적인 수학적 모텔을 제시하고 이를 사용하여 빙축열 냉방시스탱의 최적제어 알고리즘을 개발하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 효율성을 확인하는 것을 목적으로 한다.

The fan and pad evaporative cooling system is one of the main cooling methods in greenhouses. Its efficiency is very high, but it has some disadvantages as temperature gradient in greenhouse is large. This study was conducted to reduce the internal temperature gradients in the fan and pad cooling greenhouses. Experiments on cooling performance were carried out in a greenhouse equipped with air duct and integrated fan and pad system as an idea of this study. It showed that the cooling efficiency of an integrated fan and pad system was 75.7% in the first stage and 88.6% in the second stage. When this cooling system was operated for an unshaded and a shaded greenhouse, there were cooling effects of $5.7\sim7.6^{\circ}C$ and $7.4\sim9.7^{\circ}C$ to the control greenhouse, respectively. Maximum temperature differences in a cooling greenhouse, with a length of 18m, were $1.6\sim1.7^{\circ}C$ for shaded conditions and $2.3\sim2.7^{\circ}C$ for unshaded conditions. This greenhouse cooling method, with air duct and integrated fan and pad system, can reduce about 40~50% of the internal temperature gradients in the usual fan and pad cooling greenhouses.

This study presents an HFC152a refrigerant air conditioner as an alternative to HFC134a, which is currently used in mobile air conditioning systems. Cool-down performance tests of an HFC152a air conditioning system were conducted and compared to a baseline HFC134a air conditioner. The experimental set-up consisted of a belt-driven compressor, a sub-cooled type condenser, an evaporator, and a block-type thermal expansion valve (TXV). A drop-in test was carried out on the mobile air conditioning system under various vehicle running speeds in a climate-controlled wind tunnel (CWT). Additionally, to optimize the HFC152a air conditioning system, the effects of the TXVs on the performance were studied. The results show that compared to the HFC134a air conditioning system, the refrigerant charge quantity was reduced by approximately 20%, the discharge pressure was reduced by about 350~430 kPa, and the air discharge temperature at vehicle running conditions was $0.5{\sim}1.5^{\circ}C$ lower. In addition, good compressor durability was expected due to the lower compression ratio.

Metal hydride올 이용하는 냉방시스템은 다른 냉방시스템과 비교하여 환경 친화적이며 Clean technology라는 장점이 있다. 이러한 시스템 중에 최근에 많은 연구가 진행중인 Electric Compressor로 수소의 이동이 제어되는 Compressor-Driven Metal Hydride Heat Pump(CDMHHP)은 폐열원의 온도에 의해 제어되는 시스템에 비하여 cooling power가 크다는 장점과 함께 단속적인 냉방이 아닌 2개의 함금쌍으로도 연속적인 냉방이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 CDMHHP system의 동작특성을 분석하기 위해서 2개의 반응관에 고용량과 solping 특성이 매우 우수한 $Zr_{0.9}Ti_{0.1}Cr_{0.55}Fe_{1.45}$ Laves phase metal hydride을 장입하여 시스템을 구성하고 cycle time, surrounding temperature, 장입 수소량, 수소이동량등의 동작조건을 최적화 한 결과 최대 cooling power가 251 kcal/kg-alloyh의 우수한 성능을 보였다.

In this study, the cooling experiment was carried out in $1,650m^2$ area of the seedling greenhouse from June 6, 2011 to september 18, 2011 with the vertical type geothermal heat pump system of 350 kW scale (175 kW ${\times}$ 2 units) installed in the greenhouse, cooling effects were analyzed and we tried to find more effective operation methods of the geothermal heat pump system. In case of one unit heat pump (175 kW) operation, when evaporator inlet water temperature changed from $13.0^{\circ}C$ to $15.5^{\circ}C$, cooling COP of the system was in 1.1~1.8 range and in case of two unit heat pump (350 kW) operation, when evaporator inlet water temperature changed from 13.0 to 15.5, cooling COP of the system was in 2.0~2.7 range. The accumulated cooling heat quantity of June, July, August and September was 14,718.6, 26,765.1, 28,437.2 and 10,065.0 kWh, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the energy consumption status for various building types in Taejon. 35 sample buildings were classified into 8 building types, i.e., sports center & swimming pools, hotels, telecommunication exchange service facility, hospitals, research laboratories, department stores, exhibition galleries, universities. According to analyses, energy consumption patterns varies significantly for each building type. Sports centers consumes highest rate(689 $Mcal/sqm{\cdot}yr$) and universities lowest rate(86 $Mcal/sqm{\cdot}yr$) among selected building types.

This study was conducted to provide a basis for raising farm income by increasing the yield and extending the cultivation period by creating an environment where crops can be cultivated normally during high temperatures in summer. The maximum cooling load of the multi-span greenhouse with a floor area of 504 ㎡ was found to be 462,609 W, and keeping the greenhouse under 32℃ without shading the greenhouse at a high temperature, it was necessary to fog spray 471.6 L of water per hour. The automatic fog cooling control device was developed to effectively control the fog device, the flow fan, and the light blocking device constituting the fog cooling system. The fog cooling system showed that the temperature of the greenhouse could be lowered by 6℃ than the outside temperature. The relative humidity of the fog-cooled greenhouse was 40-80% during the day, about 20% higher than that of the control greenhouse, and this increase in relative humidity contributed to the growth of cucumbers. The relative humidity of the fog cooling greenhouse during the day was 40-80%, which was about 20% higher than that of the control greenhouse, and this increase in relative humidity contributed to the growth of cucumbers. The yield of cucumbers in the fog-cooled greenhouse was 1.8 times higher in the single-span greenhouse and two times higher in the multi-span greenhouse compared to the control greenhouse.

The performance simulation of a desiccant rotor, which is a core component of a desiccant cooling system, was conducted on the basis of a theoretical solution of the heat and mass transfer process in the rotor. The simulation model was validated by comparing simulation results with experimental data; reasonable agreement was observed. The effect of the rotation speed on the performance of the desiccant rotor was investigated for various operation conditions: temperature (50 to $70^{\circ}C$), humidity ratio (0.01 to 0.02 kg/kg DA), and flow rate of regeneration air. The optimum rotation speed was determined from the maximum moisture removal capacity (MRC) of the desiccant rotor, and it was found to vary with the operation conditions. Further, the correlation for the optimum rotation speed was determined by regression analysis.

지구환경문제와 에너지문제를 해소하는 한 방법으로서 Vuilleumier 사이클 기관(VM)을 이용한 공조기형 열구동형 히트펌프시스템(VMHP)이 각광을 받고 있다. VMHP의 제작에 있어서는 VM의 각 부분의 이론적 검토 및 최적설계를 위한 해석프로그램의 개발이 필수적이고 최적설계를 위한 설계 기본서의 도출 및 설계자료의 확보가 필요하다. VMHP의 상세한 성능해석이나 설계에 활용 가능한 성능해석프로그램을 개발하였다. 해석은 VM의 시스템의 각 부분을 11개 부분으로 나누어 단열모델해석으로 수행하였다. 열교환기에서의 열전달 성능과 재생기손실, 열전도손실, 셔틀손실, 유동에 의한 압력손실과 열압축측과 열펌프측 사이의 마찰손실, 피스턴실 및 로드실의 마찰손실을 고려한 해석을 수행하였다. 해석에 의한 계산치의 정확성을 본 해석결과를 이용하여 제작한 시험기에 의해 비교하였다. 계산치와 시험기에 의한 전체성능을 비교하였고 또한 각각의 손실에서 고유한 파라미터를 추출하여 그 파라미터의 변화에 따른 열손실 전체의 변화 정도를 파악하여 실험치와 계산치의 정상적인 비교로부터 성능해석의 정도를 비교하였다. 비교결과에 의해 난방능력은 8%, 냉방능력은 19%의 최대오차로서 본 해석결과가 VMHP의 설계를 위해 유용한 수단으로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In this study, the effects of control strategies of night-purge control system on control characteristics and energy consumption for central cooling system in building are researched by simulation. The start time and set-point temperature for night-purge control with outdoor temperature changes and building cold storage performance are obtained. The system analysis modelling is done by using TRNSYS program package, and the control performances with suggested night-purge control method are compared with the existing control ones. As a result, the suggested night-purge control method shows maximum 16.8% and 28.6% energy saving in comparison with existing control method and conventional one without night-purge control, respectively.
