A super-heat pump system composed of a suction line heat exchanger, low and high stage economizers, and a screw compressor is simulated to examine the energy performance and design options. CFC12, HCFC22, HFC134a, HCFC22/HCFC142b, HFC32/HFC134a, and HFC125/HFC134a are used as working fluids for comparison. The results indicate that the proposed system charged with appropriate mixtures is up to 33.4% more energy efficient than the normal system with CFC12. The performance of the super-heat pump system charged with mixtures was influenced by such factors as the temperature matching, heat source temperature difference, low stage economizer, and high stage economizer. The fluids with a larger liquid specific heat such as HFC134a would have more benefits when a suction line heat exchanger is installed. 40%HCFC22/60%HCFC142b mixture seems to be a good candidate to replace CFC12. On the other hand, 25%HFC32/75% HFC134a would be a good long term candidate to replace HCFC22.

The major cause of compressor failure is the decrease of oil viscosity due to floodback. In most previous researches on the compressor reliability, the relationship between oil circulation rate and performance or oil viscosity has been studied. Another research topic is flow visualization by using a sight glass on the bottom of a compressor sump area and accumulator. Both oil film thickness and oil level through the sight glass should be assessed for compressor reliability if the oil content of the mixture is small and low viscosity raise poor lubrication of pump bearing. In this study, the compressor reliability was assessed by measuring the viscosity of the mixture and calculating oil film thickness. The analysis of the relationship between bottom shell super heat and oil film thickness at heating operation was peformed. It is concluded that bottom shell superheat does not perfectly stand for the mixture's behavior for a low ambient heating operation and oil film thickness can give more detailed and direct criteria for compressor reliability.

과냉 촉진을 위한 새로운 열교환기(HESC)가 생활공간의 냉난방을 위한 공기-물 열펌프의 성능계수 향상을 위해 본 연구에서 개발되었으며 그 효과를 실험적으로 분석하였다. 이 열교환기(HESC)는 여러 단계의 셀과 튜브로 구성되어 있으며, 열펌프 시스템의 응축기와 증발기 사이에 장착되었다. 실험 조건으로, 외기온은 $7^{\circ}C$에서 $-17^{\circ}C$, 입구 물 온도는 $7{\sim}10^{\circ}C$ 그리고 제 2열전달매체로서 물의 질량 유동율은 시간당 100에서 $300{\ell}$로 변화를 주었다. 본 실험에서 이 열교환기가 장착된 열펌프의 압축기에서의 냉매 입 출구 사이의 온도 차이는 열교환기가 장착되지 않은 열펌프보다 $15^{\circ}C$ 높았다. 이에 따라 이 열교환기가 장착된 열펌프 시스템은 외기온 $-10^{\circ}C$에서 COP가 0.8 증가하였다. 따라서 이 공기-물 열펌프 시스템은 최근 한국에서 실용화되고 있는 고비용이 요구되는 지열 열펌프 시스템을 대체하여 생활공간을 위한 냉난방 시스템으로서 중요한 역할을 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

에너지 절약 장치로서 Heat pump 기술은 선진 각국에서 70년대 이후 관심 깊게 연구개발을 계속하고 있으며 지금도 보일러-열펌프 닥킹시스템(boiler-heat pump docking system), 과 성능 열펌프시스템(super efficient heat pump system)등 더욱 성능이 우수한 장치 연구를 위하여 박 차를 가하고 있다. 외국의 경우 현재 공조용으로 사용되고 있는 열펌프는 원래 냉동기 기술을 기초로 하여 개발하였기 때문에 낮은 온도의 열원에서부터 60.deg. C 정도까지의 온수를 제조 하는 것은 기술적으로 충분하다. 이를 일반 산업용으로 하기 위하여 보다 더 높은 온도의 열을 공급하기 위해서는 새로운 연구가 활발하게 전개되어 왔다. 그 결과 저온배열을 100.deg. C 내 외로 올리는 기술이 개발되고 이의 응용 예가 많으며 구미 각국에서는 정부의 지원을 얻어 실 습플렌트(demonstration plant)가 다수 설립되고 있다. 이하 각장에서는 열펌프 기술의 국제적인 동향과 우리나라의 현실, 보급장애요인 그리고 장래전망을 기술하고 또 열펌프의 보급확대 방 안을 논술하고자 한다.

Applicability of organic Rankine cycle for a passenger car with 3.5 L gasoline engine to convert low grade waste heat to useful shaft power has been numerically studied. Working fluid is R134a, and the Rankine cycle is composed of boiler for recovering engine cooling water heat, super heater for recovering exhaust gas heat, scroll expander for converting waste heat to shaft power, condenser for heat emission, internal heat exchanger, and feed pump. Assuming efficiencies of 90% for the heat exchangers, 75% for the scroll expander, and 80% for the feed pump, the Rankine cycle efficiency of 5.53% was calculated at the vehicle speed of 120 km/hr. Net expander shaft output after subtracting the power required to run the pump was 3.22 kW, which was equivalent to 12.1% improvement in fuel consumption. About the same level of improvement in the fuel consumption was obtained over the vehicle speed range of 60 km/hr~120 km/hr.

A ground source heat pump system maintains a constant efficiency due to its stable heat source and radiant heat temperature which provide a more effective thermal performance than that of the air source heat pump system. As an eco-friendly renewable energy source, it can reduce electric power and carbon dioxide. In this study, we analyzed one year of data from a web based remote monitoring system to estimate the thermal performance of GSHP with the capacity of 3RT, which is installed in a low energy house located in Daejeon, Korea. This GSHP system is a hybrid system connected to a solar hot water system. Cold and hot water stored in a buffer tank is supplied to six ceiling cassette type fan coil units and a floor panel heating system installed in each room. The results are as follows. First, the GSHP system was operated for ten minutes intermittently in summer in order to decrease the heat load caused by super-insulation. Second, the energy consumption in winter where the system was operated throughout the entire day was 7.5 times higher than that in summer. Moreover, the annual COP of the heating and cooling system was 4.1 in summer and 4.2 in winter, showing little difference. Third, the outlet temperature of the ground heat exchanger in winter decreased from $13^{\circ}C$ in November to $9^{\circ}C$ in February, while that in summer increased from $14^{\circ}C$ to $17^{\circ}C$ showing that the temperature change in winter is greater than that in summer.

This study is on the design and evaluation of Zero Energy Solar House(ZeSH) including active solar heating system. Various innovative technologies such as super insulation, passive solar systems, super window, ventilation heat recovery system...etc were analyzed by individual and combination for the success of ZeSH. The ESP-r simulation program was used for this. Simulation results shows that almost 77% of heating load can be reduced with the following configuration of 200mm super insulation, super windows, passive solar system and 0.3 ventilation rate per hour. Active solar heating system (ASHS) was designed for the rest of the heating load including hot water heating load. The solar assisted heat pump is used for the auxiliary heating device in order to use air conditioner but not included in this study. The yearly solar fraction is 87% with a solar collector area of $28m^2$. The parametric studies as the influence of storage volume and collector area on the solar fraction was analyzed.

Korea and some other countries located in the northern hemisphere employ the air conditioner for the space cooling in the hot summer season and also some kinds of heaters for the space heating in the cold winter season. Especially in Korea, a great number of air conditioners of about 12,700,000 sets have been used these days. However, they are used for a short operation period of only 58 days a year, which results in the material and economic losses. To solve this problem and employ this system for the emergency shelter, a new conversion unit which could convert the existing air conditioner to a heat pump system for simultaneous heating and cooling was developed in this study, and the thermal performance was tested. The results indicated that the indoor air could be heated from $27^{\circ}C$ to $39^{\circ}C$ by the air conditioner converted to a heat pump system with the ambient temperature variation of $-10^{\circ}C{\sim}10^{\circ}C$, and cooled from $20^{\circ}C$ to $15^{\circ}C$ by the converted system with the ambient temperature variation of $20^{\circ}C{\sim}35^{\circ}C$. And also the heating COP increased from 3.3 to 5.3 in case of the heat exchange of the super cooling(HESC) circuit and from 3.0 to 4.0 in case of the By-pass with the ambient temperature variation of $-10^{\circ}C{\sim}10^{\circ}C$, respectively, whereas the cooling COP decreased from 3.1 to 2.1with the increase of the ambient temperature from $20^{\circ}C$ to $35^{\circ}C$.

20세기에 대두된 HCFC나 CFC계의 냉매들의 환경에의 악영향을 극복하기 위하여 보다 환경 친화적인 이산화탄소와 같은 자연냉매에 대한 관심이 커지고 있다. 겨울철 대기의 열원을 이용하여 증발을 유도하는 이산화탄소 열펌프는 증발기의 온도가 높아 효율이 상대적으로 낮아지고, 130bar가 넘는 고압으로 인하여 열펌프 설비 부품들의 제작의 어려움이 따르게 된다. 본 연구는 보다 낮은 압력의 새로운 2단 팽창식 $CO_2$ 오토 캐스케이드 열펌프를 고안하여 이러한 단점들을 해소하고 보다 효율을 증가시키고자 하였다. 새로운 오토 캐스케이드 열펌프에 2단 팽창방식과 효과적인 냉각방식의 시스템 구성을 하여 혼합냉매인 $CO_2$ 와 R32를 적용하였다. 공정에 고압 70bar, 중간 팽창압은 25bar, 최종 저압은 10bar를 적용하여 해석한 결과, 현재의 오토 캐스케이드 열펌프 공정의 COP는 1.629이었으나, 개선된 중간 압력 25bar의 2단 팽창 오토 캐스케이드 공정은 2.332로 현재의 공정보다 43.15% 향상되었다. 또한 저압측 증발기의 온도도 $-10^{\circ}C$ 이하가 되어 찬 외기에도 증발이 용이하게 발생되는 공정이 되었다. 본 공정이 향후 $CO_2$ 열펌프의 성능계수를 보다 향상시키고 고압에 따른 부품 문제들의 해소에 기여할 수 있는 공정으로 분석되었다.
