  • ZTA tubes were prepared by centrifugal casting and sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs. The ZTA tubes were machined into specimens of $3{\times}4{\times}40$ mm. Molten Soda lime glass (SLG) was penetrated into the surface of ZTA at an optimized condition of $1500^{\circ}C$ for the holding time of 5 h and furnace cooled. The extra glass on the surface was removed using a resin bonded diamond wheel. The glass penetrated samples were tested for their flexural strength using four point bend test. Vickers Indentation cracks were made on the glass penetrated surface at different loads of 9.8 N, 49 N, 98 N and 196 N. The residual compression on the surface enhanced the flexural strength and crack arrest behaviour remarkably. This was attributed to the thermoelastic mismatch between the glass and ZTA matrix during cooling.

  • The purpose of this study is on the performance evaluation of horizontally installed GHEX(Geothermal Heat Exchanger, HGHEX) which has been operated for 5 years successfully. Followings are the results. Firstly, in summer season, on Aug. 2000, $33^{\circ}C$ water was flowing out from HGHEX with continuous operating method, and $27{\sim}29^{\circ}C$ with interval operating method on Jul. 2005. But $2.5{\sim}3.0^{\circ}C$ temperature differences are gained from HGHEX. Secondly, in winter season, on Nov. 2000, $25^{\circ}C$ water was flowing out from HGHEX with continuous operating method, and $13{\sim}15^{\circ}C$ with interval operating method on Jan. 2006. But with each operating method, only $0.1^{\circ}C$ and $0.7^{\circ}C$ temperature differences are gained from HGHEX respectively. As the conclusion of this study, at the point of continuos operating method, seasonal balance of heating and cooling loads, and at the point of interval operating method, balance for geothermal restoring time respectively must be considered for better system performances.

  • Building energy simulation has become a useful tool for predicting cooling, heating and air-conditioning loads for facilities. It is important to provide building energy performances feed back to the mechanical and electrical system operator and engineer for energy conservation and maintenance of building. From this research, we set up the typical weather data of location, basic description of building, geometric modelling data and the specification of Installed primary HVAC system for establishing the simulation model about energy consuming that take place in multipurpose building complex. The simulation tool of building energy - EnergyPlus (DOE and BLAST based simulation S/W), it has been used and accomplished calculations and analyses for evaluating the effect of the system types and operating condition of central HVAC plant on the building energy consumption. In this paper, we offer comparison and simultaneous results those involve electricity consumption pattern and amount between actual operation versus EnergyPlus simulation to the object building during summer season.

  • 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.

  • Semi-transparent Photovoltaics (STPV) works as an exterior material replacing windows as well as functioning as a electricity generator. As a result, it also affects the building's heating, cooling and lighting loads. In this study, we used the concept of Net Electricity Benefit(NEB) to conduct a parametric analysis of building energy impact of STPV. The NEB of STPV is from $-1kWh/m^2$ to $6kWh/m^2$. Since NEB represents the amount of energy increase or decrease when STPV is applied compared to the standard window, a value of 0 or less means that the demand for building energy can be increased rather than applying a general window having high thermal performance and high visible light transmittance value. Therefore, it is necessary to perform a comprehensive performance evaluation considering both the performance evaluation based on the existing power generation performance and the influence on the building energy.

  • This study deals with the maximum thermal load analysis and optimal capacity determination method of tank culture system for applying seawater source heat pump to save energy and realize zero energy. The location of the fish farm was divided into four sea areas, and the heat load in summer and winter was analyzed, respectively. In addition, two representative methods, the flow-through aquaculture system and the recirculation aquaculture system were reviewed as water treatment methods for fish farms. In addition, the concept of the exchange rate was introduced to obtain the maximum heat load of the fish farms. Finally, power consumption for heat pumps was analyzed in the view point of sea areas, tank capacity, and exchange rate based on the calculated maximum thermal load.

  • 본고는 상업용 건물에 있어서의 냉난방부하에 대한 외벽의 축열(열용량)효과를 비교$\cdot$분석하는데 그 목적이 있다. 가장 최근에 발표된 에너지 해석 프로그램인 DOE-2.1C를 이용하여 Berkeley Solar Group (BSG) 이 제안한 축열효과를 분석하였다. 본 고에서의 축열효과는 "delta load"로서 표현되어 있으며 "delta load"는 전형적인 나무구조 건물과 벽돌조 건물의 연간 냉난방부하의 차이로서 표시된다. BSG 보고서에 의하면 delta load는 (1)구조물의 위치와 관련한 단열방법 (2)벽의 열용량 (3)벽의 열관류을 (4)기후조건에 따라 달라진다고 되어 있다. 본 고에서의 delta load 계산은 중규모 사무소 건물을 대상으로 하였으며 Lake Charles, LA와 Madison, WI 기후 데이터를 사용하였는데 DOE-2.1C 사용에 의한 delta load는 BSG의 결과와 일반적으로 잘 조화가 되는 것으로 나타났으나 외주부의 방향에 따른 dalta load와 난방에 있어서는 다소 큰 차이를 보여 주고 있으며, 외단열과 중간열의 효과는 BSG의 결과와 마찬가지로 비슷하였다.

  • Textile-type heat exchangers installed on the tunnel walls for facilitating ground source heat pump systems, so called "energy textile", was installed in an abandoned railroad tunnel around Seocheon, South Korea. To evaluate thermal performance of the energy textile, a series of long-term monitoring was performed by artificially applying daily intermittent cooling and heating loads on the energy textile. In the course of the experimental measurement, the inlet and outlet fluid temperatures of the energy textile, pumping rate, temperature distribution in the ground, and air temperature inside the tunnel were continuously measured. From the long-term monitoring, the heat exchange rate was recorded as in the range of 57.6~143.5 W per one unit of the energy textile during heating operation and 362.3~558.4 W per one unit during cooling operation. In addition, the heat exchange rate of energy textile was highly sensitive to a change in air temperature inside the tunnel. The field measurements were verified by a 3D computational fluid dynamics analysis (FLUENT) with the consideration of air temperature variation inside the tunnel. The verified numerical model was used to evaluate parametrically the effect of drainage layer in the energy textile.

  • Gas turbine blades that have complex geometry of the cooling holes and cooling passages are usually subjected to cyclic and sustained thermal loads due to changes in the operating characteristic in combined power plants; these results in non-uniform temperature and stress distributions according to time to gas turbine blades. Those operation conditions cause creep or thermo-mechanical fatigue damage and reduce the lifetime of gas turbine blades. Thus, an accurate analysis of the stresses caused by various loading conditions is required to ensure the integrity and to ensure an accurate life assessment of the components of a gas turbine. It is well known that computational analysis such as cross-linking process including CFD, heat transfer and stress analysis is used as an alternative to demonstration test. In this paper, temperatures and stresses of gas turbine blade were calculated with fluid-structural analysis integrating fluid-thermal-solid analysis methodologies by considering actual operation conditions. Based on analysis results, additionally, the total lifetime was obtained using creep and thermo-mechanical damage model.
