본 연구에서는 이중관형 열회수 환기장치의 제품 적용 가능성을 검토하기 위해 성능 시험을 수행하였으며 이중관의 내측관의 재질에 변경에 따른 검토를 하기 위해 종이관, 알루미늄관, 폴리머관을 제작하여 동일한 급/배기 풍량을 인가하여 측정하였다. 온도 교환 효율은 모든 경우에서 알루미늄관의 경우가 가장 큰 값을 나타냈으며 종이관과 폴리머관은 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 이는 내측관으로 사용된 재료의 열전도율과 두께의 차이 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 습도 교환 효율은 모든 경우에서 종이관의 경우가 가장 큰 값을 나타냈으며 알루미늄관과 폴리머관은 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 이는 종이 재질은 습도 교환이 가능하지만 알루미늄과 폴리머재질은 습도 교환이 불가능하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 습도 교환과 온도 교환의 두 값을 포함하는 전열 교환 효율은 종이관의 경우가 가장 큰 값을 나타냈으며 알루미늄관과 폴리머관은 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 에너지계수(COE)는 현열과 잠열교환이 동시에 일어나는 종이관의 경우 전열에너지계수 값을 현열교환만 일어나는 알루미늄관과 폴리머관은 현열에너지계수를 비교해 보면 종이관의 에너지계수가 가장 큰 값을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 이중관형 열회수 환기장치의 내부관 재질에 따른 성능을 비교 분석 하였으며 환기장치로 적용이 가능한 것을 알 수 있었다.

Aluminum plate heat exchanger, rotary wheel heat exchanger, and heat pipe heat exchanger have been used (or ventilation heat recovery in the air-conditioning system. The purpose of this research is to develop high efficiency plastic plate heat exchanger which can substitute aluminum plate heat exchanger. Because thermal conductivity of plastic is quite small compared to that of aluminum, various heat transfer enhancement techniques are applied in the design of plastic plates. Five types of heat exchanger model are designed and manufactured, which are plate type, plate-fin type, turbulent promoter type, corrugate type, and dimple type. Thermal performance and pressure loss of each heat exchangers are measured in various operating conditions, and compared each other. Test results show that heat transfer performance of corrugate type, turbulent promoter type, and dimple type are increases about $43\%$, $14\%$, and $33\%$ at the equivalent fan power compared to those of plate type, respectively. On the other hand, the heat transfer performance of plate-fin type decreases $9\%$ because fins can not play their own role.

화석연료의 무분별한 사용으로 인해 지구 온난화 및 환경오염 문제가 대두되고 있으며, 이에 따라 효율적인 에너지 활용을 위해 기존에 버려지는 폐열을 회수하는 기술에 대한 필요성이 커지고 있다. 산업폐열 발전 시장은 발전효율을 높일 수 있다는 장점으로 인해 연평균 5% 성장하고 있다. 고효율 폐열발전시스템 설계를 위해 열원별 조건에 따른 발전 기술별 경제성을 평가할 수 있는 프로그램 개발이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 산업폐열 발전시스템에 최적화된 경제성분석 모듈 개발을 위해 균등화 전력원가를 산출하는 모듈을 개발하고 NETL의 경제성분석 사례를 바탕으로 시스템의 신뢰도를 검증하였다. 검증 결과, 오차율은 약 6~7%로 사업 타당성 평가를 위한 정확도를 만족하였으나, 신뢰성 향상을 위해 NETL에서 사용하는 균등화 방법론을 적용하여 알고리즘을 개선하였고 이에 따라 오차율은 1% 미만으로 신뢰도가 향상되었다.

Ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems are actively introduced as cooling and heating conditioning systems of buildings due to annual stable performance and easily maintenance. However, ground temperature imbalance is occurred when the GSHP is used for a long period. Therefore, in this study, we proposed the operation method of the system that considered the recovery time of heat source temperature. The entering water temperature (EWT) and heat exchange rate (HER) were comparatively analyzed according to the continuous and intermittent operation. Furthermore, the underground thermal environment was evaluated by numerical analysis model. As the result, the intermittent operation was a maximum of 12.3% higher HER during the heating period than the continuous operation. In addition, the overall ground heat source temperature at the intermittent operation was higher than it at the continuous operation.

This study was performed to investigate thermal performances of two different types of flat-plate solar collector systems; natural circulation system and forced circulation system. Conclusions obtained from this study are summarized as follows; 1) In the natural circulation system, the total heat amounts retrieved by starting recovery soon after sunrise were ranged from 10.28 to 17.20MJ/m$^2$, while the total heat amounts retrieved by starting recovery after sunset were ranged from 5.31 to 10.77MJ/m$^2$. 2) The collector efficiency in natural circulation system were ranged from 51.1% to 54.1% when the collected heat was retrieved after sunrise and were 65.8~78.0% when the collected heat was retrieved soon after sunset. 3) According to the regression analysis between fluid flow rates and fluid temperature difference at inlet and outlet of collector pipe, there was high regressive corelations with regression coefficient, r, of 0.982. 4) The collector efficiencies estimated for forced circulation system were 73.1~88.6%, and 78.4~94.8%, and 64.2%~74.5%, respectively when fluid circulation rates were 4.2 l/min, and 7.0 l/min, respectively.

In recent years, energy harvesting from natural sources and waste heat has been attracting more attention from researchers in response to ever-growing energy demands, high energy prices, and climate-change-mitigation purposes. It is also an important step towards future sustainable energy usages. In thermal dynamic cycles, expanders are playing as the most important equipment for waste heat recovery and energy harvesting as well. As a kind of expander, the bladeless turbine has a promising future and more widely using owning its advantages on relatively long life, good off-design performance, easy operation cleaning and maintenance, a simple structure, no blade corrosion, and low manufacturing costs. There are numerous studies about using the Tesla Turbine as a key technology for energy harvesting in a wide range of applications and conditions. They are presented to help identify technologies that have sufficient potential for applicating to our life and marine industrial engineering. This review paper, initially, presents an overview of current studies both theoretical and experimental of Tesla Turbine usage for waste heat recovery alongside its challenges and investigation on the effect of its configuration, working fluid selection as well. To conclude, future perspectives besides possible ways of transforming waste heat energy to electricity or work, which leads to circular energy, are discussed. The ambition of this paper is to act as a first-hand reference, through the well-defined possible directions, to the young researchers and senior scientists.

ERV system has installed in almost newly constructed residential building in Korea. Heat recovery features of ERV can be possible to decrease the heating and cooling load caused by ventilation. However, in case of the outdoor condition is favorable to control the indoor air, the heat recovery function of ERV does more harm than good in term of cooling load. In this study, the ERV with economizer cycle control for residential building is suggested and the performance of the suggested system will be analyzed using TRNSYS.

A large part of the overall industrial energy is dissipated as waste heat despite of much development in the utilization of thermal energy. A mean efficiency is reported to be only around 30 to 35%. The existing waste heat recovery technology has reached its limit and consequently, the development of a new technology is necessary. Improving efficiency using thermoelectric technology has recently come into the spotlight because of its unique way to recover thermal energy. In fact, thermoelectric generator directly converts thermal energy into electric energy by a solid state without any moving parts. Futhermore remarkable improvement in the thermoelectric energy conversion efficiency has been achieved. In this study, a thermoelectric generator was made using commercialized thermoelectric modules. With thermoelectric modules attached on a duct surface, hot air was blown into the duct using a hot air blower. On the other side of the module, a water jacket was attached to cool the module. With different air inlet temperatures and water flowrates, the electrical power of the thermoelectric generator was measured.

Two-step water splitting thermochemical cycle with $CeO_2/ZrO_2$ foam device was investigated by using a solar simulator composed of 2.5 kW Xe-Arc lamp and mirror reflector. The hydrogen production of $CeO_2/ZrO_2$ foam device depending on heat recovery of Thermal-Reduction step and Water-Decomposition step was analyzed, and the hydrogen production of $CeO_2/ZrO_2$ and $NiFe_2O_4/ZrO_2$ foam devices was compared. Resultantly, the quantity of hydrogen generation increased by 52.02% when the carrier gas of Thermal-Reduction step is preheated to $200^{\circ}C$ and, when the $N_2/steam$ is preheated to $200^{\circ}C$ in the Water-Decomposition step, the quantity of hydrogen generation increased by 35.85%. Therefore, it is important to retrieve the heat from the highly heated gases discharged from each of the reaction spaces in order to increase the reaction temperature of each of the stages and thereby increasing the quantity of hydrogen generated through this.
