To reduce energy consumption and CO₂ emission in building sector, a ground source heat pump system has been highly adopted due to its high efficient by many regulation. A certification system has been operated to distribute reliable and high-efficient heat pump units. In this study, the performance status of the recently certified ground source heat pump unit with components was investigated. All heat pump units certified from 2015 to 2020 were water to water heat pump types. Compared to the past, higher capacity systems over 400 kW have been certificed. The cooling COP of the heat pump unit based on certification criteria showed higher value than the heating COP. It is highly recommended to revise the certified criteria values considering operating conditions individually. Most of ground source heat pump units have employed scroll type compressors and plate type heat exchangers with HFC refrigerant.

Condensing gas boiler units may make a big role for the reduction of energy consumption in heating industries. In order to decrease the energy consumption of a boiler unit, the effective operation is necessary. In this study, the supply water temperature algorithm of a condensing gas boiler was developed. This includes the setpoint algorithm and the control algorithm of the supply water temperature. The setpoint algorithm was developed by the fuzzy logic and the control algorithm was developed by the proportional integral algorithm. In order to analyse the performance of the supply water temperature algorithm, the dynamic model of a condensing gas boiler system was used. Simulation results showed that the supply water temperature algorithm developed for this study may be practically applied for the control of the condensing gas boiler.

Perimeter zone has been reinforced by active systems, such as fan-coil units, because it causes an increase in heating and cooling loads, dew condensation in winter, or discomfort with cold-draft to residents in buildings, through poor insulation by light-weighed skin due to progressing multi-storied buildings and skyscrapers. However, because these active systems raise Its capacity so that fossil fuel is used as much as they are added, and ultimately, greenhouse effect is urged, we proposed BIPV system functioned as solar collector which can substitute active system. As an early stage, heat balance equation in steady-state by Fortran was used not only for pre-heating effect and electric power capacity during the day in winter, but also for electric power capacity during day in slimmer and sky radiation effect during night in summer. Especially, we should have considered shading on PV, since even a little bit of it makes the efficiency too low for the PV to work. Still, when the flux of pre-heated air was increased to make air-barrier, its temperature was not enough to make it because the speed of heat exchange was too fast to warm up the air, thus the capacity to meet the condition was evaluated, and electric power from PV was made used for it.

A ground source heat pump system maintains a constant efficiency due to its stable heat source and radiant heat temperature which provide a more effective thermal performance than that of the air source heat pump system. As an eco-friendly renewable energy source, it can reduce electric power and carbon dioxide. In this study, we analyzed one year of data from a web based remote monitoring system to estimate the thermal performance of GSHP with the capacity of 3RT, which is installed in a low energy house located in Daejeon, Korea. This GSHP system is a hybrid system connected to a solar hot water system. Cold and hot water stored in a buffer tank is supplied to six ceiling cassette type fan coil units and a floor panel heating system installed in each room. The results are as follows. First, the GSHP system was operated for ten minutes intermittently in summer in order to decrease the heat load caused by super-insulation. Second, the energy consumption in winter where the system was operated throughout the entire day was 7.5 times higher than that in summer. Moreover, the annual COP of the heating and cooling system was 4.1 in summer and 4.2 in winter, showing little difference. Third, the outlet temperature of the ground heat exchanger in winter decreased from $13^{\circ}C$ in November to $9^{\circ}C$ in February, while that in summer increased from $14^{\circ}C$ to $17^{\circ}C$ showing that the temperature change in winter is greater than that in summer.

Two phase thermosyphone loop for electronics cooling are designed and manufactured to test its performance under the partial load and low environment temperature conditions. The thermosyphone device has six evaporators connected parallel for the purpose of cooling six power amplifier units (PAU) independently. The heater modules for simulating PAUs are adhered with thermal pad to the evaporator plates to reduce the contact resistance. There are unbalanced distributions of liquid refrigerant in the differently heated evaporators due to the vapor pressure difference. To reduce the vapor pressure differences caused by partial heating, two evaporators are connected each other using the copper tube. The pressure regulation tube successfully reduces these unbalances and it is good candidates for a field distributed systems. Under the low environment temperature operating condition, such as $-30^{\circ}C$, there may be unexpected subcooling in condenser. It leads the very low saturation pressure, and under this condition there exists explosive boiling in evaporator. The abrupt pressure rise due to the explosive boiling inhibits the supplement of liquid refrigerant to the evaporator for continuous cooling. Finally the cooling cycle will be broken. For the normal circulation of refrigerant there may be an optimum cooling air flow rate in condenser to adjust the given heat load.

Indoor air quality is of increasing concern because it is closely related human health. An air handling unit (AHU) can be used to control the indoor air quality related to particulate matters and $CO_2$ as well as air conditioning such as temperature and humidity of indoor air. An electrostatic precipitator has a high collection efficiency and low pressure drop, however, ozone can possibly generate from its chargers, which is one of drawbacks to apply it for indoor air control. Here we compared four charging electrodes such as a $50{\mu}m$ tungsten wire, a $100{\mu}m$ tungsten wire, a $16{\mu}m$-thickness Al foil and a carbon fabric comprised of $5-10{\mu}m$ fibers. The carbon fabric electrode showed a superior particle collection efficiency and a lower ozone generation at a given power consumption compared to tungsten wires of 50, $100{\mu}m$ and an Al foil electrode. This low ozone generating, micro-sized electrode can be applied to the electrostatic precipitator in AHU for indoor air control.

This paper presents a development of the auxiliary power supply simulator for a electric rolling stock. An auxiliary power supplies are required for operating air conditioning units, ventilation fans, lighting and battery charging. Traditionally this function has been fulfilled by Motor-Alternator sets. In recent years, high performance of semiconductor and micro processor, availability and price have made three phase voltage source inverters as an attractive alternative to MA Sets. From the baseline model of the SIV(Static InVerter) for electric rolling stock, we designed the scale down model of the auxiliary power supply simulator consisting of an IGBT three phase voltage source inverter. The auxiliary power supply simulator can be used educatory purpose for training efficiently about operating principles of SIV.

Condensing gas boiler units may make a big role for the reduction of energy consumption in heating industries. In order to decrease the energy consumption of a condensing gas boiler unit, the effective operations and controls of the system are necessary. In this study, mathematical models of a condensing gas boiler system were developed and programmed in order to predict dynamic behaviors of the system. These include dynamic models for a blower, a gas valve, a pump, a burner, a boiler heat exchanger, and a hot water heat exchanger. Control algorithms for the control of a gas valve, a blower, and a pump were also assumed. Simulation results showed good predictions of the dynamic phenomena of a boiler system. Therefore, the simulation program developed for this study may be effectively used for the development of control algorithms of the boiler system.
