Because of their low operating and maintaining costs, ground-source heat pump(GSHP) systems are an increasingly popular choice for providing heating, cooling and water heating to public and commercial buildings. Despite these advantages and the growing awareness, GSHP systems to residential sectors have not been adopted in Korea until recently. A feasibility study of a residential GSHP system was therefore conducted using the traditional life cycle cost(LCC) analysis within the current electricity price framework and potential scenarios of that framework. As a result, when the current residential electricity costs for running the GSHP system are applied, the GSHP system has weak competitiveness to conventional HVAC systems considered. However, when the operating costs are calculated in the modified price frameworks of electricity, the residential GSHP system has the lower LCC than the existing cooling and heating equipments. The calculation results also show that the residential GSHP system has lower annual prime energy consumption and total greenhouse gas emissions than the alternative HVAC systems considered in this work.

Knowledge of ground thermal properties is most important for the proper design of large scale BHE(borehole heat exchanger) systems. The type, pipe size and thermal performance of the BHE is highly dependent on the ground source heatpump system-efficiency and instruction cost. Thermal response tests with mobile measurement devices were developed primarily for insitu determination of design data for large diameter BHE for triple-U spacer apply. The main purpose has been to determine insitu values of effective ground thermal conductivity and thermal resistance, including the effect of ground-water flow and natural convection in the boreholes. The test rig is set up on a some trailer, and contains a circulation pump, a inline heater, temperature sensors, flow meter, power analysis meter and a data logger for recording the temperature, fluid flow data. A constant heat power is injected into the borehole through the tripl-U pipes system of test rig and the resulting temperature change in the borehole is recorded. The recorded temperature data are analysed with a line-source model, which gives the effective insitu values of rock thermal conductivity and borehole thermal resistance of large diameter BHE for spacer apply.

A simulation program was developed to evaluate the heat transfer performance of a multi-pass fin-tube evaporator, considering the pressure drop in the distributor and capillary tubes. The effect of capillary tube length for each pass was analyzed with various inlet air flow types and distributions. The appropriate capillary tube length distribution and correlation were determined for various inlet air flow types and distributions. The correlated results agreed well with the simulation, with an average error of less than 7%. By applying an optimal capillary tube length distribution, the heat transfer rate was increased by 4~5% compared to cases with uniform tubelength distributions, for each of the inlet air flow types and distributions considered in this study.

This study has been conducted to investigate the potential energy reserve amount of river water as energy resource with useful temperature difference. Since the river water temperature is one of the primary parameters deciding the potential amount of river water energy reserve amount, the climate change effects on it are critically important. In this study, the heat exchange processes and the inter-relationship between the air temperature and river water temperature have been theoretically analyzed. Based on the present study, the potential energy reserve of river water is calculated to amount to 192,000 Tcal/year. Among this, it is estimated that approximately 2,000 Tcal/year can be directly utilized for heat pump energy sources.

In this paper, a complete station blackout (SBO) or complete loss of electrical power supplies is simulated and analyzed in a downward cooling 5-MW pool-type Material Testing Reactor (MTR). The scenario is traced in the absence of active cooling systems and operators. The code nodalization is successfully benchmarked against experimental data of the reactor's operating parameters. The passive heat removal system includes downward water cooling after pump breakdown by the force of gravity (where the coolant streams down to the unfilled portion of the holdup tank), safety flapper opening, flow reversal from a downward to an upward cooling direction, and then the upward free convection heat removal throughout the flapper safety valve, lower plenum, and fuel assemblies. Both short-term and long-term natural core cooling conditions are simulated and investigated using the RELAP5 code. Short-term analyses focus on the safety flapper valve operation and flow reversal mode. Long-term analyses include simulation of both complete SBO and long-term operation of the free convection mode. Results are promising for pool-type MTRs because this allows operators to investigate RELAP code abilities for MTR thermal-hydraulic simulations without any oscillation; moreover, the Tehran Research Reactor is conservatively safe against the complete SBO and long-term free convection operation.

본 논문에서는 동반논문에서 구축된 수치해석 모델을 이용하여 SCW의 성능을 평가하기 위한 매개변수연구를 수행하였다. 매개변수연구에는 공극률, 투수계수, 열전도도, 비열, 지열경사 등 5개의 지반환경변수와 유량, 심정심도, 심정직경, 유입관 직경, 블리딩율의 설계변수가 적용되었다. 수치해석은 24시간 연속가동과 가동 중지를 반복하는 14일간의 가동 두 가지로 수행되었다. 해석결과 SCW 성능에 중요한 영향을 미치는 변수는 열전도도, 수리전도도, 지열경사, 유량, 심정 심도, 블리딩율인 것으로 나타났다. 열전도도가 높을수록 SCW의 효율이 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 지열경사가 클수록 심정 저부의 온도가 증가하여 난방모드에서는 효율이 향상되지만, 냉방모드에서는 유입수의 온도가 증가하여 오히려 효율이 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 수리전도도도는 $10^{-4}m/s$ 이상일 경우에는 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있으나 $10^{-6}m/s$ 이하에서는 영향이 적은 것으로 나타났다. 심정심도가 증가할수록 SCW의 효율이 향상되는 것으로 나타났지만 심정심도를 높일수록 시공비가 증가하게 된다. 블리딩을 적용하며 추가적인 비용 없이 심정온도를 조절할 수 있으며 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 매우 효과적인 방법인 것으로 나타났다. 단, 블리딩은 유출수를 배출할 공간이 확보되며 지하수량이 풍부한 경우에만 적용할 수 있다. 본 매개변수 연구결과, SCW의 성능에 영향을 미치는 요소는 매우 다양하며 이들의 복합적인 영향을 정확하게 규명하기 위해서는 수치적 모델을 수행해야 할 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

액체추진기관의 극저온 추진제 공급부에서 추진제의 주입 후 대기시간 동안의 온도상승은 배관내의 geysering 현상 및, 점화시 터보펌프에서의 cavitation을 발생시킬 수 있다. 본 자료에서는 이런 문제를 해결하는 방법 중 하나인 재순환배관 방식에 대하여 KSLV-I 예비안의 산화제부 형상을 바탕으로 LOX를 산화제로 사용한 경우에 있어서 그 성능을 파악하였다. 또한, 다양한 parametric study를 통하여 재순환배관의 설계인자를 찾고자 하였다. 재순환배관의 직경, 초기 LOX 온도, 재순환배관 높이, ullage 압력, 열전달 계수 등의 변화에 의한 영향 및 추가적인 He 분사를 통한 순환 촉진 효과를 살펴보았다. 상용 열유체해석프로그램인 SINDA/FLUINT를 사용하였고 1차원적으로 해석을 수행하였다.

LNG는 극저온액체로 저장탱크의 열유입으로 인하여 지속적으로 BOG가 발생하고 있으며, 이의 효과적인 방법의 재액화가 요구되고 있다. 이 BOG의 재액화에는 공급되는 저압 펌프 후의 LNG의 냉열을 이용하는 데, 현재의 공정은 BOG 단위 발생량에 대하여 10배 이상의 LNG 흐름이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 NGL분리액화와 2차 고압펌프 후의 LNG 냉열을 이용하는 공정을 새롭게 고안하였으며, 이를 분석한 결과 LNG 소요유량이 3~4배에 불과한 매우 효과적인 재액화 시스템이 되었다. 본 고안에 의하면 하절기에도 원활한 BOG 재액화가 가능하므로, LNG기지의 안전성 향상과 공급 의 효율을 높일 수 있는 매우 효과적인 공정으로 분석되었다.

If a part of the poor solution from the absorber outlet is recirculated to the absorber inlet, the solution temperature at the solution spray pump can be reduced, and the solution flow rate in the absorber is increased. We have performed the experiments on the influences of the absorption chiller performance according to the ratio of the recirculation, defined as the ratio of the recirculation flow rate to the total solution flow rate at the absorber outlet. As increasing the ratio of the recirculation, the absorption capacity of the solution can be deteriorated. On the other hand, due to the increasing flow rate, the heat transfer rate can be enhanced. As a result, the performance of the absorber and the cooling capacity of the absorption chiller have nothing to do with the recirculation ratio, and the lifetime of the spray pump will be maintained.

In general, an absorption chiller or heat pump is operated under the constant cooling water flow rate condition even though the system works with a partial load. The objective of this paper is to study the effect of the cooling water flow rates and the temperature of cooling water on the system performance to find the energy saving methode for the partial load operation of the double effect $H_2O$/LiBr absorption chiller. It is found that the performance of the system is sensitive to the temperature of cooling water than the cooling water flow rate, so the decrease of the performance due to reducing the cooling water flow rate can be overcome with the reduction of the cooling water temperature by 1$^{\circ}C$. The flow rate of the cooling water flow rate ranges from 50％ to 100％ of the flow rate at normal conditions with a partial load. It is also found that the operation cost of the cooling water pump and the cooling tower can be reduced by 23％.
