Heat pumps have received a fair amount of attention all over the world for their high efficiency and low environmental impact. Employing heat pumps for residential heating and cooling produces only about 2038 kg-$CO_2$/year, an amount which is less than half that of conventional boiler systems. However, the use of single-stage heat pumps becomes uneconomical when they are operated at very low evaporating temperature or high condensing temperature. Two-stage heat pumps systems can be used successfully for low or high temperature applications. In this paper, the experimental study on the performance of two-stage heat pump with an economizer was executed in heating mode. When the secondary fluid inlet temperature to the indoor heat exchanger increased, the COP enhancement rate of two-stage heat pump with an economizer was increased. For all outdoor inlet temperature conditions, the performance of the heat pump with an economizer was higher than it without an economizer.

This paper describes experimental study on the orientation dependence of GM-type pulse tube refrigerator with helium and neon as working gas. A pulse tube refrigerator generates refrigeration work with gas expansion by gas displacer in the pulse tube. The pulse tube is only filled with working gas and there exists secondary flow due to large temperature difference between cold-end and warm-end. The stability of secondary flow is affected by orientation of cold-head and thus cooling performance is deteriorated by gas mixing due to secondary flow. In this study, a single stage GM-type pulse tube with orifice valve as a phase control device is fabricated and tested. The fabricated pulse tube refrigerator is tested with two different working gases of helium and neon. First, optimal valve opening and operating frequency are determined with experimental results of no-load test. And then, the variation of no-load temperature as orientation angle of cold-head is measured for two different working gases. Effect of orientation dependence of cold-head as working gas is discussed with experimental results.

The present study was conducted to estimate the effect on fouling reduction in tubes of the condenser. It shows in detail how to calculate the fouling factor from the experimental results of refrigeration systems with or without the automatic cleaning system using sponge balls and to predict the variation of the factor with time. It also represents how to calculate the temperature and pressure decrease of the refrigerant vapor in the condenser and the load decrease of the compressor in the refrigeration system by fouling reduction.

The mathematical method was developed and numerical analyses were carried out with various parameters to provide substantial data for optimal design and operation of urban utility systems. The composition of systems and their specifications, such as co-generation system, heat pump system, incineration system and other heating and cooling system could be obtained through these analyses for various resource and energy requirements in urban area. As results the system constituents and operating characteristics, and their economic performances such as the value of objective function, initial and an operating costs were discussed for various load patterns. The effective system design method and the excepted effects of the several unused energy recovery systems were also briefly discussed with the variation of the buildings and facilities species and their capacities.

식물공장의 다양한 건물형태에 따른 냉난방부하의 차이를 DesignBuilder를 이용하여 해석하였다. 엽채류 중 상추의 생육 적정온도인 $20^{\circ}C$를 실내온도로 설정하고 식물공장 외벽에 단일창호를 적용하여 온실형태에 따른 냉난방부하 변화를 계산하였다. 보광이 없는 건물자체의 냉난방부하를 계산한 결과 KNU 식물공장 단위유닛과 반원 온실형 식물공장이 냉방부하가 가장 적었다. 보광 적용 후에는 전반적으로 KNU 식물공장 단위유닛과 직사각형 식물공장이 양호한 냉난방 성능을 보여주었다. KNU 식물공장 창호의 면적이 와이드 스팬형보다 크기 때문에 건설비용의 증가가 예상되지만 회전형 스마트 조명 제어시스템을 적용하게 되면 재배면적을 넓히고 공간활용에 유리하다. 또한 LED 사용량을 줄일 수 있어 냉방부하와 보광에 드는 비용을 절감할 수 있다.

Performance analysis of the automotive air-conditioning system is conducted by using computer simulation, and performance tests are carried out by using the climate wind tunnel in order to verify simulation. Evaporator and condenser were modeled by using empirical correlation which was obtained from calorimeter data, and compressor was modeled by using map based method. The steady state thermodynamic conditions of refrigerant satisfying mass and energy balance were assumed in the simulation program for automotive airconditioning system. The system performance was analyzed by finite difference method until differential air enthalpy between evaporator inlet and outlet becomes converged. Simulation results are in good agreement with experimental results at most operating conditions. Variation of discharge temperature and pressure of compressor, outlet temperature of evaporator, cooling capacity, and COP were investigated in term of air volume flow rate for evaporator, compressor capacity, compressor speed, superheat of thermostatic expansion valve, and diameter of suction line.

An expansion device plays an important role in optimizing the heat pumps by controlling refrigerant flow and balancing the system pressures. Conventional expansion devices are being gradually replaced with electronic expansion valves due to increasing focus on comfort, energy conservation, and application of a variable speed compressor. In addition, the amount of refrigerant charge in a heat pump is another primary parameter influencing system performance. In this study, the flow characteristics of the expansion devices are analyzed, and the effects of refrigerant charge amount on the performance of the heat pump are investigated at various operating conditions. Cooling capacity of the heat pump system is strongly dependent on load conditions. The heat pump system is very sensitive with a variation of refrigerant charge amount. But, the performance of it can be optimized by adjusting the flow rate through expansion device to maintain a constant superheat at all test conditions.
