Recently, alternative energy resources have emerged considerably due to the high oil prices and environment problems. Deep sea water that is one of the natural energy sources can be one of the attractive solutions to reduce the environment problems, and there are already a few examples in some developed countries. In this study, cooling system of deep sea water using heat exchangers of two hotels, located in near Haeundae Bay in Busan, have been analyzed on the quantity of electricity and gas use comparison between existing cooling system and deep seawater cooling system by using E-Quest simulation program. The results of the study showed that the Hotel A approximately saves 370 millions won per year, and the Hotel B saves 248 millions won per year. It means that the cooling system by using deep sea water has great worth to reduce the ratio of fuel sources.

It is important to select an optimal capacity for equipment, because the initial cost of new and renewable energy system is more expensive than that of exiting system. An optimal equipment and enhanced rate of operation can be selected, to analyze the cooling and heating load of buildings. In this study, seawater heat pump system in the Jeju area will be applied, by the heat source equipment of district heating. The loads of buildings are analyzed from existing researches, to select optimal capacity of equipment. Also, an optimal rate of building use will be set up, from a combination of buildings.

Infrared stealth is an important technology for naval ships. This technology helps improve the anti-detection performance and survivability of naval ships. In general, the infrared signature of naval ships are categorized into internal and external heat source. External signature are generated by ship surface heating by solar flux as well as the complicated heat transfer process with the surrounding weather condition. Modern naval ships are equipped with seawater injection nozzles on the outside for nuclear, biological and, chemical, and these nozzles are used to control external signature. Wide nozzle placement intervals and insufficient injection pressure, however, have reduced seawater dispersion area. To address this problem, nozzle installation standards must be established. In this study, an actual-scale experimental system was implemented to provide the evidence for nozzle installation standards in order to reduce the infrared signature of naval ships. In addition, the environmental conditions of the experiment were set up through computational fluid dynamics considering the ocean climate data and naval ship management conditions of South Korea. The dispersion distance was measured using a high-resolution thermography system. The flow rate, pipe pressure, and dispersion distance were analyzed, and the evidence for the installation of seawater injection nozzles and operation performance standards was suggested.

Deep Ocean Water is formed within restricted area including polar sea (high latitude) by cooling of surface seawater and globally circulated in the state of insolation with surface seawater. Although not as obvious as estuaries mixing, Brine groundwater is mixture of recirculated seawater and groundwater. Seawater having high osmotic pressure infiltrate into unconfined aquifer where is connected to the sea. The ions dissolved in seawater are present in constant proportions to each other and to the total salt content of seawater. However deviation in ion proportions have been observed in some brine groundwater. Some causes of these exception to the Rule of constant proportions are due to many chemical reactions between periphery soil and groundwater. While Deep Ocean Water (DOW) have a large quantity of functional trace metals and biological affinity relative to brine groundwater, DOW have relatively small amount of harmful bacteria and artificial pollutants.

On a plan for the Winter Olympics 2018, Korean government is in the process of the world's first use of ocean energy for the Olympic ice-rink. This technology will be applied to a seaside town and have possibility of an export industry. In this study, we researched facilities and system for P ice-rink that acts as a cultural center as well as a physical plant in Busan and provided the way that apply by seawater heat source. Also, existing system and seawater heat source system of P ice-rink was analyzed by the most commonly used life cycle cost analysis among economics methods. Such economics data for ice-rink using seawater will be utilized by a basic information.

In order to obtain the highly effective thermal energy from jacket cooling water of propulsion diesel engines. a development of the Fresh Water Generator (FWG) with a capacity of 30 ton/day was implemented. Newly developed experimental devices and data acquisition system were used to evaluate the performance of the FWG. In this study experiments were performed for various driving pressures by varying the mass flowrate of cooling seawater with or without a heat source instead of jacket cooling water.

함정의 해수냉각 시스템은 화생방전에 의한 유해물질의 세척과 선체 외부의 적외선 신호를 저감하기 위해 설치된다. 시스템은 압력펌프, 각종 배관 그리고 해수분사용 노즐로 구성된다. 그리고 해수의 분사 압력과 노즐 종류에 따라 산포 범위가 결정된다. 따라서 해수의 산포 범위를 넓히고 해수냉각 시스템의 효율을 극대화하기 위해서는 적절한 분사 압력의 설정과 노즐의 최적 설계가 필요하다. 금속재료로 만들어지는 해수분사용 노즐은 초기 개발단계에서 금속 틀을 만들고 최적 성능을 만족할 때까지 수정된다. 이는 많은 시간과 비용을 유발하여 노즐개발에 어려움을 일으킨다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해수분사용 노즐의 초기 개발단계에서 시제품을 생성하기 위한 3D 프린팅 기술의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다. 이를 위해 3D 프린팅 기술을 이용하여 압출 플라스틱 시험편을 제작하고 인장시험을 통해 시험편의 물리적 특성 값을 측정하였다. 그리고 측정 결과를 유한요소해석 조건에 적용해 해수의 분사 압력에 따른 노즐의 변형과 응력을 계산하였다. 유한요소해석 결과 노즐은 최적 압력에서 탄성 범위 내로 변화하였으며, 구조적으로 안정하다고 판단되어 본 연구의 가능성을 확인하였다.

An innovative safety concept for a light water reactor has been developed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. It is a unique concept that adopts both a fast heat transfer mechanism for a small containment and a changing mechanism of the cooling geometry to take advantage of the potential, thermal, and dynamic energies of the cold water in the containment. It can bring about rapid cooling of the containment and long-term cooling of the decay heat. By virtue of this innovative concept, nuclear fuel damage events can be prevented. The ultimate heat transfer mechanism contributes to minimization of the heat exchanger size and containment volume. A small containment can ensure the underground construction, which can use river or seawater as an ultimate heat sink. The changing mechanism of the cooling geometry simplifies several safety systems and unifies diverse functions. Simplicity of the present safety system does not require any operator actions during events or accidents. Therefore, the unique safety concept of PX can realize both economic competitiveness and inherent safety.

The fresh water and sea water in present ships is used as cooling water for marine engine. Therefore, corrosion damage in seawater system is frequently occurred. In particular, in the impeller of pump, the performance and material span due to the corrosion and cavitation erosion has adverse effects. Most of the pump impellers in vessels are used Cu-Al alloy. Cu-Al alloy which having the excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance is widely used in marine environments. However, despite the excellent characteristics, the periodic replacement parts due to the cavitation damage in seawater is vulnerable to economic viewpoint. In this study, Cu-Al alloy used with impeller for centrifugal pump were conducted various experiments to evaluate its characteristics in seawater and fresh water solutions. As an electrochemical result, the dynamic conditions that exposed to the cavitation environment presented high corrosion current density with collapse of the cavity compared with the static conditions. Cavitation test results, the weightloss and weightloss rate in fresh water are observed more than those of seawater.
