Recently, microturbines have received attention as a small-scale distributed power generator. Since the exhaust gas carries all of the heat release, the microturbine CHP (combined heat and power) system is relatively compact and easy to maintain. Generating hot water or steam is usual method of heat recovery from the microturbine. In this work, a heat recovery unit producing hot water was installed at the exhaust side of a 30 kW class microturbine and its performance characteristics following microturbine power variation was investigated. Heat recovery performance has been compared for different operating conditions such as constant hot water temperature and constant water flow rate. In particular, the influence of water flow rate and hot water temperature on the recovered heat was analyzed.

A dehumidifier using a thermoelement has many advantages compare to a dehumidifier using compressor systems. However, it is crucial to optimize the performance of heat sink for improving heat dissipation problem on the heat generation part. In this study, we utilized computational fluid dynamics software to compare Nusselt number, temperature and system efficiency based on fin thickness, flow gap between fin and fin length. Moreover, slip flow on the boundary layer was applied for the further analysis. Our objective in this study is to suggest an optimal fin shape to improve heat transfer with the tendency of performance factor depending on change of the shapes. Our results on the optimization of fin shape and analysis of slip flow will be utilized to enhance the heat transfer in the heat sink which is important in the design of dehumidifier using a thermoelement.

현재 가정용 콘덴싱 가스보일러의 사용을 의무화 하고 있는 추세이며, CO나 NOx와 같은 오염 물질의 배출이 적은 친환경 보일러 사용을 적극 추천하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 효율을 증가시키기 위하여 가정용 콘덴싱 가스보일러에 사용되는 2차열교환기인 잠열교환기의 튜브(관) 내부에 이너 그루브 형상을 추가 하여 열유동에 대한 해석을 실시하였다. 이너 그루브 형상이 추가됨에 따라서 전열면적은 약 20% 증가하였으며, 이에 따라 열전달량이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었고, 이를 3차원 수치해석을 이용하여 확인하였다. 또한 이너 그루브 형상을 추가했을 경우 이너 그루브 형상이 없는 잠열교환기 보다 출구 온도가 약 $1^{\circ}C$ 증가하였고, 이는 가정용 콘덴싱 가스보일러의 효율증가에 상당한 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 STS-316 플레이트와 구리(Cu) 브레이징으로 구성된 접합 판형 열교환기(BPHE, Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger)의 내식성과 열효율 성능 향상을 위해 실란계 코팅을 적용하고자 하였다. 코팅 재료에 따른 부식 및 접촉각을 평가하여 선정된 코팅재료를 열교환기에 적용하였으나, 전열 성능 평가 결과 코팅하지 않은 열교환기에 비해 열효율이 떨어지는 결과가 나타났다. 이는 접합 판형 열교환기 내부의 유로에 코팅제의 고착화 및 표면의 잔여 코팅제가 열저항으로 작용하여 열전달을 방해는 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 내부에 미세한 유로가 존재하는 판형 열교환기의 구조적인 특성에 기인한 것으로, 판형 열교환기 제작 공정에서 사전에 유로 표면에 코팅 후 제작하는 것이 전열성능을 향상 시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

All modem, aerospace gas turbines must operate with hot stage gas temperature several hundreds of degrees hotter than the melting temperatures of the materials used in their construction. Complicated cooling schemes need to be employed in the combustor walls and In the high pressure turbine stages. Internal passages are cast or machined into the hot sections of aero-gas turbine engines and air from the compressor is used for cooling. In many cases, the cooling system is engineered to utilize jets of high velocity air, which impinge on the internal surfaces of the components. They are divided by Impinging cooling method and Vortex cooling method. Specially, Research of new cooling system(Vortex cooling method) that overcome inefficiency of film cooling and limitation of space. The focus of new cooling system that improve greatly cooling efficiency using quantity's cooling air which is less is set in surface heat transfer elevation.

The experimental investigation was carried out to evaluate the performance of air-to-air heat exchanger with rotating porous plates newly developed in this study. The rotating porous plates are mounted with an equal interval of 18 mm inside the heat exchanger where the hot and cold airs enter at opposite ends. When flowing in opposite directions by the separating plate installed in the center of the rotating porous plates, the airs give and receive the heat each other. The material of the porous plate is cooper and its thickness is 1.0 mm. Air flow rate is varied from 10 to 120 m3/h. From the experiment of air-to-air heat exchanger with the rotating porous plates, the heat exchange performance increased with the increase in RPM of the porous rotating discs at the conditions of the same air flow rate. The sensible heat exchange efficiency was maximum 60 to 70 percent, and enthalpy exchange efficiency 50 to 60 percent.

In the present study, an evaporative generation process of ammonia-water solution film on the vertical plate was analysed. For the utilization of waste heat, hot water of low temperature was used as the heat source. The continuity, momentum, energy and diffusion equations for the solution film and vapor mixture were formulated in integral forms and solved numerically. Counter-current solution-vapor flow resulted in the refrigerant vapor of the higher ammonia concentration than that of co-current flow. Eve the rectification of refrigerant vapor was observed near the inlet of solution film in counter-current flow. For the optimum operation of generator using hot water, numerical experiments, based on the heat exchange and generation efficiencies. revealed the inter-relationships among the Reynolds number of the solution film and hot water, and the length of generator. Enhancement of heat and mass transport in the solution film was found to be very effective for the improvement of generation performance, especially at high solution flow rate.

The air and refrigerant side heat transfer performances are key parameters to improve heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchanger including the fan performance. Design of the fins, treatment of the tube inside, tube diameter and tube array effect heat transfer performance of the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is used as a condenser at cooling mode and used as an evaporator at heating mode in the heat pump system. The heat pump system uses R410A as the refrigerant. The heat exchangers are consisted with 7 mm diameter tubes with slit-type fins. The study was conducted with variation of arrangement of the refrigerant path and air flow rate and refrigerant pressure drop and heat transfer rate were measured with a code tester. The capacity of the 3 path heat exchanger is more efficient than 2 or 4 path heat exchangers in heating or cooling modes.
