In the present work, a new freeze protection method has been proposed for a natural circulation system of solar water heater. Though electrothermal wire is popularly used for the purpose, there are freezing troubles by wire cut-off and excessive electric power consumption. In the experimental device, hot water in a storage tank was circulated by a small pump and used to heat the outdoor pipes if the cold water pipe surface temperature falls lower than a set point. As a result, It was observed that there was no hot water waste while the solar water heating system operated without freeze and burst.

The new f-chart capable of estimating long-term thermal performance of solar space and water heating systems was developed. The system comprise a flat plate solar collector, heat exchanger, storage tank filled with water, auxiliary fuel fired heater, and a house structure. The information obtained from many simulations of solar heating systems has been used to develop this f-chart. Actual hourly meteorological data collected in Seoul, Daejeon, Kwangju and Daegu, Korea from 1979 to 1983 have been utilized in these simulations. The new f-equation is as follows: $$f=1.034Y_{-}0.0968X_{-}0.2235Y^2+0.0043X^2+0.0144Y^3$$. The system performance estimates obtained from the developed f-chart are in close agreement with the results of experiment.

This study is to evaluate the fatigue crack growth characteristics for base metals and welded metal of 9% Ni steels. Since this material has very excellent fracture toughness at low temperature, it has been widely used for inner walls of LNG storage tank. These materials to compare fatigue crack growth (FCG) behaviour are treated with heat by the method of quenching and tempering (QT), and quenching, lamellarizing and tempering (QLT). FCG tests using compact temsion (CT) specimen under stress ratio R=0.1, 0.5, and constant load are carried out. K-increasing tests are conducted by the standard test method described in ASTM E 647. To investigate the effect of welded metal on the crack growth rate, the locations of notch tip were chosen at the center of welded metal and heat affected zone (HAZ). Form the results, FCG rate has almost same tendency according to stress ratio, base and welded metal, the locations of welded metal. FCG rate of welded metal is somewhat faster than base metal. Also scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to observe the striation of the fractured surface after fatigue crack tests.

적층 단열재(multi-layer insulation, MLI)는 초전도 마그넷과 초전도 전력 케이블과 같은 초전도 응용기기의 냉각에 사용되는 저온유지장치(cryostat)에 외부 열침입을 차단하여 단열성능을 향상시키기 위해 사용된다. 적층 단열재는 인공위성에 사용되는 단열재로 적층단열재를 구성하는 자재의 종류와 적층층수 등에 따라 단열 성능이 변화한다. 본 연구에서는 적층 단열재의 원리를 이용한 축열조용 복합 다층 단열재(composite multilayer insulation, CMI)의 구성 재질 종류를 변경하고 적층 방식을 바꿈으로서 단열 성능이 바뀌는 것을 확인하였다. 실험은 KS C 9805의 방법을 이용하였으며, 복합 다층 단열재의 단열 성능 확인을 위해 동일한 조건의 축열조에 스티로폼을 적용하여 비교하였다. 또한, 실험 결과를 분석하기 위한 방법으로 기존 단열재에 대한 등가 두께를 비교하고 type별 CMI의 열전도율을 구해 비교하였다. 그 결과 복합 다층 단열재의 등가 두께는 스티로폼 보다 작아 동일 두께인 경우 스티로폼 보다 단열성능이 더 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 복합 다층 단열재의 구성 소재 및 적층 방식에 따라 전도, 대류 및 복사와 관련된 값들의 변화가 총괄 열전달계수에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

현열저장에서 열성층의 이점을 태양열 주택에 적용해보았다. 성층으로 인하여 에너지 입력의 열이용 효율이 증가되는 효과가 논의되었고, 실험과 시뮤레이션을 통하여 설명되었다. 성층을 촉진시키기 위하여 Distributor를 사용하였으며, 본 실험에서 Q=8 liter/min, ${\Delta}T=40^{\circ}C$일 때, 최대 90%의 열이용 효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 한편 성층을 촉진시키기 위하여 Distributor의 적은 구멍에서 나오는 유동(속도와 압력)이 같게 제작할 수만 있다면 그 이상의 열이용효율도 얻을 수 있음이 입증되었다.

In order to accelerate hydrogen society in current big renewable energy trend, it is very important that hydrogen can be transported and stored as a fuel in efficient and economical fashion. In this perspective, liquid hydrogen can be considered as one of the most prospective storage methods that can bring early arrival of the hydrogen society by its high gravimetric energy density. In this study, a small-scale hydrogen liquefier has been designed and developed to demonstrate direct hydrogen liquefaction technology. Gifford-McMahon (GM) cryocooler was employed to cool warm hydrogen gas to normal boiling point of hydrogen at 20K. Various cryogenic insulation technologies such as double walled vacuum vessels and multi-layer insulation were used to minimize heat leak from ambient. A liquid nitrogen assisted precooler, two ortho-para hydrogen catalytic converters, and highly efficient heat pipe were adapted to achieve the target liquefaction rate of 1L/hr. The liquefier has successfully demonstrated more than 1L/hr of hydrogen liquefaction. The system also has demonstrated its versatile usage as a very efficient 150L liquid hydrogen storage tank.
