열병합발전은 에너지사용의 효율적인 기술로서 고유가의 지속 및 이산화탄소 배출저감에 대한 국제적인 압력의 강화, 분산열원 또는 분산전원의 개발 필요성의 증대 등으로 인하여 정부와 사업자들로부터 관심이 높다. 따라서 지역냉난방사업을 추진할 경우, CHP가 경제적인 관점에서 도입될 수 있는지, 도입된다면 적정 규모는 어느 정도인지가 연구대상이 된다. 본 연구는 실제 지역냉난방사업에 활용할 수 있는 설비선택에 관한 수리계획 모형을 설정하고 이를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 분석모형은 열원의 종류와 규모, 이들의 가동수준 그리고 투입연료의 양 등을 주요 결정변수로 하고 있다. 모형은 모든 종류의 설비(열병합발전기, 열전용보일러, 냉열생산 설비, 축열조 등)를 모형에 포함시켜 선택 가능하도록 구성하였다. 모형의 주요 특징은 변동 열전비 열병합발전의 운전모드도 하나의 기술로 간주하여 모형에서 이를 선택하게 할 수 있으며, 특정지역에 대한 CHP와 열전용 보일러의 용량에 대한 적정 구성비도 도출할 수 있다. 본 연구는 기업측면에서는 설비최적화 모델로 활용할 수 있으며, 규제자의 측면에서는 설비규모 인허가에 참고자료로 활용 가능할 것이다.

A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Engineering in 2006 has been accomplished. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, ventilation, sanitation and building environments. The conclusions are as follows. (1) The research trends of fluid engineering have been surveyed as groups of general fluid flow, fluid machinery and piping, etc. New research topics include micro heat exchanger and siphon cooling device using nano-fluid. Traditional CFD and flow visualization methods were still popular and widely used in research and development. Studies about diffusers and compressors were performed in fluid machinery. Characteristics of flow and heat transfer and piping optimization were studied in piping systems. (2) The papers on heat transfer have been categorized into heat transfer characteristics, heat exchangers, heat pipes, and two-phase heat transfer. The topics on heat transfer characteristics in general include thermal transport in a cryo-chamber, a LCD panel, a dryer, and heat generating electronics. Heat exchangers investigated include pin-tube type, plate type, ventilation air-to-air type, and heat transfer enhancing tubes. The research on a reversible loop heat pipe, the influence of NCG charging mass on heat transport capacity, and the chilling start-up characteristics in a heat pipe were reported. In two-phase heat transfer area, the studies on frost growth, ice slurry formation and liquid spray cooling were presented. The studies on the boiling of R-290 and the application of carbon nanotubes to enhance boiling were noticeable in this research area. (3) Many studies on refrigeration and air conditioning systems were presented on the practical issues of the performance and reliability enhancement. The air conditioning system with multi indoor units caught attention in several research works. The issues on the refrigerant charge and the control algorithm were treated. The systems with alternative refrigerants were also studied. Carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons and their mixtures were considered and the heat transfer correlations were proposed. (4) Due to high oil prices, energy consumption have been attentioned in mechanical building systems. Research works have been reviewed in this field by grouping into the research on heat and cold sources, air conditioning and cleaning research, ventilation and fire research including tunnel ventilation, and piping system research. The papers involve the promotion of efficient or effective use of energy, which helps to save energy and results in reduced environmental pollution and operating cost. (5) Studies on indoor air quality took a great portion in the field of building environments. Various other subjects such as indoor thermal comfort were also investigated through computer simulation, case study, and field experiment. Studies on energy include not only optimization study and economic analysis of building equipments but also usability of renewable energy in geothermal and solar systems.
