Energy consumption savings in buildings should be reviewed in diverse areas such as air conditioning system and lighting responsible for cooling and heating, and energy management systems such as BAS (Building Automation System) and BEMS (Building Energy Management System) are introduced to improve energy consumption efficiency and to promote economic control of related facilities by integrated management of energy generated and consumption in buildings. The measured building of this study uses regenerative geothermal system. Measured values of heat pump and system COP were 4.7 and 4.2 respectively, and they were found to be higher 11.9% and 23.5% than rated values. As a result of analyzing the air conditioning and lighting energy from the first floor to the fourth floor performing the air conditioning, the second and third floors, which have a high frequency of use, are compared with the first and fourth floors 50% higher energy consumption ratio. On the other hand, the general heat storage system uses the nighttime power of the previous day to store heat and use it the next day. The total number of days of abnormal operation during the summer season is 61 days. The electricity cost corresponding to the abnormal operation is 1,840,641 KRW, and the normal operation using the nighttime power is 1,363,561 KRW, which is difference of 477,080 KRW, 35% increase in cost. We will utilize it as the main data of BEMS through analysis of winter operation characteristics as well as summer operation characteristics.

The heat exchange between the Borehole Heat Exchanger(BHE) and the surrounding ground depends directly on ground thermal conductivity k at the certain site. The k is thus a key parameter in designing BHE and coupled geothermal heat pump systems. Currently, although a thermal hydraulic Response Test(TRT) is mostly used in practice, the thermal hydraulic TRT needs additional power and is generally time-consuming. A new, simple wireless probe for hi-speed k determination was introduced in this paper. This technique using a wireless probe is less time-consuming and requires no external source of energy for measurement and predicts local thermal properties by measuring soil temperatures along the depth. Measured temperature data along the depth was analyzed. As a result, the electronic wireless probe can replace the conventional hydraulic TRT method after carrying out the additional research on a lot of local heat flow, etc.

In this study, an analysis was performed on the performance of the solar water heating system with geo-thermal heat pump for a detached house. This system has a flat plate solar collector ($8\;m^2$) and a 3 RT heat pump. The heat pump acts as an auxiliary heater of the solar water heating system. These systems were installed at four individual houses with the same area of $100\;m^2$. The monitoring results for one year are as follows. (1) The average daily operating time of the solar system appeared to be 313 minutes in spring (intermediate season), and 135 minutes and 76 minutes in winter and summer respectively. The reason for the short operating time in summer is the high storage temperature due to low water heating load. The high storage temperature is caused by a decrease in collecting efficiency as well as by overheating. (2) The geothermal heat pump as an auxiliary heater mainly operates on days of poor insolation during the winter season. (3) Despite controlling for total house area, hot water consumption varies greatly according to the number of people in the family, hot water usage habits, etc. (4) The yearly solar fraction was 69.8 to 91.5 percent, which exceeds the maximum value of 80% as recommended by ASHRAE. So the solar collector area of $8\;m^2$ appeared to be somewhat greater for the house with an area of $100\;m^2$. (5) The observed annual efficiency of solar systems was relatively low at 13.5 to 23.6%, which was analyzed to be due to the decrease in thermal efficiency and the overheating caused by a high solar fraction.

지열에너지는 여러 신재생에너지원 중에서도 기저부하를 담당할 수 있는 중요한 자원으로 인식되고 있다. 국내에서도 천부지열을 이용한 지열냉난방은 효율 높은 신재생에너지 활용 사업으로 그 보급이 활성화 되어 있다. 반면, 전세계적으로 지열 발전 기술이 진일보하고, 그 시장이 크게 확대되고 있는 상황에서 아직까지 국내의 심부 지열을 이용한 지열 발전 기술은 낮은 단계에 머무르고 있다. 이러한 조건에서 2010년 12월에 국내 최초의 EGS(Enhanced Geothermal System) 지열 발전 상용화 기술 개발 과제가 착수되었다. 총 5개년의 기간으로 수행되는 이 과제는 2단계로 구분되어 진행될 계획이다. 처음 2년의 1단계에서는 3 km 심도에서 최소 $100^{\circ}C$의 지열저류층 온도를 확인하는 것을 주요 과제 내용으로 하여 지중 지열수 순환시스템의 설계가 이루어질 예정이다. 이후 3년을 통해 수행될 2단계에서는 5 km 심도의 생산정과 주입정 등 두 개의 지열발전정을 설치하고, 수리자극을 통하여 온도 $180^{\circ}C$의 지열저류층에서 유량 40 kg/s 이상의 지열수를 활용하는 MW급 지열발전소를 건립 운영하게 된다. 이 사업을 성공적으로 추진하기 위하여 현재 지질, 수리지질, 지구물리, 암석역학, 플랜트 엔지니어링 등 다양한 분야의 산학연 연구 기관 등이 망라되어 연구진을 구성한 상태이며, 이후 관심있는 여러 기관과 연구자들의 지원과 참여를 기대하고 있다.

This paper presents a series of numerical simulations on the thermal performance and sectional efficiency of a closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger (U-loop) equipped in a geothermal heat pump system (GHP). A 2-D finite element analysis, ANSYS, was employed to evaluate the temperature distribution on the borehole cross section involving HDPE pipe/grout/soil formation to compare the sectional efficiency between the conventional U-loop and a new latticed HDPE pipe system which is equipped with a thermally insulating latice in order to reduce thermal interference between the inflow and outflow pipes. In addition, a 3-D finite volume analysis (Fluent) was used to simulate the operating process of the closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger by considering the effect of grout's thermal properties, rate of circulation pump, distance between the inflow and outflow pipes, and the effectiveness of the latticed HDPE pipe system. It was observed that the thermal interference between the two strands of U-loop is of importance in determining the efficiency of the ground heat exchanger, and thus it is highly recommendable to modify the cross section configuration of the conventional U-loop system by including a thermally insulating latice between the two strands.

We compared relative importance of thermal conductivity and initial ground temperature in designing borehole heat exchanger network and also we test accuracy of ground temperature estimation in thermal response test using a proven 3-D T-H modeler. The effect of error in estimating ground temperature on calculated total length of borehole heat exchanger was more than 3 times larger than the case of thermal conductivity in maximum 20% error range. Considering 10% of error in estimating thermal conductivity is generally acceptable, we have to define the initial ground temperature within 5% confidence level. Utilizing the mean annual ground surface temperature and the geothermal gradient map compiled so far can be a economic way of estimating ground temperature with some caution. When performing thermal response test for estimating ground temperature as well as measuring thermal conductivity, minimum 100 minutes of ambient circulation is required, which should be even more in case of very cold and hot seasons.

Recently, Vertical-Closed Loop system using geothermal which is the most efficient among the building cooling and heating systems is coming into wide spread due to assistance of domestic policies. However, there is a limitation that a design of ground heat exchanger taking 60% of construction cost is done by GLD and GLHEPRO programs without specific guidelines and consideration on Entering Water Temperature(EWT). For getting an optimal EWT, we analyzed the costs for construction of ground heat exchanger and cooling and heating for 15 years. In the results, reduction of construction costs as the length of ground heat exchanger shortens was much greater than increase of the electrical power consumption as COP gets low. EWT that COP of heat pump can be 3.76 or above was below $31^{\circ}C$ in cooling and was over $5^{\circ}C$ in heating.

The temperatures with the ground depth, the positions of circulation water in ground heat exchanger were measured and thermal diffusion characteristics with the distances of the direction normal to the borehole was analysed. The deeper the depth of ground, the less the influences of outdoor temperature, but below 10m of ground, there was no influences of ground temperature. When the depth of trench pipe was below the depth of 2m, there was no influence. In the ground of 10m when the distances between the pipe and the other places were above 0.5m, the variations of temperature were less than $1.6^{\circ}C$ and above 2.5m they were less than $0.1^{\circ}C$. When the distances of bore hole were above 5m, there were no. influences of the nearest ground heat exchanger.

내 수문지열계 가운데 수주지열정(SCW)시스템을 합리적으로 설치이용할 수 있는 조건들은 심도별 지온증가율이 명확하고($2^{\circ}C/100m$심도), 기존의 지하수 열펌프가 필요로 하는 순환수의 유량에 비해 최소 $10{\sim}30%$의 중온의 심부지하수가 산출될 수 있어야 하며, 순환수를 공내로 재주입시 공내붕괴가 일어나지 않는 견고한 암석들이 존재 하여야 한다. 수주지열정의 1개공당 굴착심도는 평균 $400{\sim}500m$이며, 이로 부터 개발가능한 지열에너지는 공당 약 $30{\sim}40RT$ 규모인데 비해 1개 수직지중열교환기가 공급가능한 지열에너지는 $2{\sim}3RT$ 정도이다. 즉 수주지열정 1개공은 $10{\sim}15$개의 수직지중열교환기 역할을 한다. 따라서 이 방식은 수직루프 설치장소의 공간 문제를 해소할 수 있는 유일한 대안으로 인식되어, 현재 전국 각지에서 많은 수의 SCW들이 무분별 하게 비과학적으로 설치되고 있다. 이와 같이 해당지역 수문지열계의 수리 지질학적인 특성과 열적인 특성을 명확히 파악하지 않은 상태에서 수주지열정을 설계 시공하는 경우에 나타날 문제점들은 추후 합리적인 천부지열 개발 이용에 지대한 장애요인이 될 것이다. 따라서 본고는 국내 수문지열계에 적합한 수주지열정을 설계 하는데 있어 필요한 일종의 지침서를 제시하기 위해 작성되었다.
