The performance test is conducted for the purpose of determining the accurate thermal performance of the power generation facility or deriving the factors of thermal efficiency degradation. Compared to the acquisition method of power plant thermal performance test data by compensating cable or transmission cable, performance test using wireless instrument can acquire digital data in order to shorten the period due to installation and demolition of instrument and enhance safety of workers and relatively accurate data can be acquired thereby improving work efficiency. Wireless instruments have already been introduced to the market a long time ago, and some of them are used in industry such as petrochemical industry. However, there is no example which has been conducted for performance test of power generation facilities. In order to apply power generation facilities, a reliable system capable of acquiring performance data smoothly without affecting the control system is required. The wireless measurement system can eliminate the measurement defects and errors such as the damage due to the movement of the connecting cable, the extension due to the extension of the shield wire, the contact failure at the contact point between the measuring sensor and the connecting wire, This method has the advantage of collecting relatively accurate performance test data.

In order to design coaxial-type Ground Heat Exchangers (GHEXs) efficiently, the effect of components (i.e, heat exchange pipe and grouting material) on the thermal performance of coaxial-type GHEXs should be identified in advance. In this paper, three coaxial-type GHEXs with different configurations were constructed in a test bed. Then, the effect of heat exchange pipes and grouting materials on the thermal performance of coaxial-type GHEXs was investigated by performing in-situ thermal response tests (TRTs) and thermal performance tests (TPTs). In the TRTs, the effective thermal conductivities of the coaxial-type GHEXs with concrete grouting and STS pipes were improved by 6.15 and 22.7%, respectively compared to those of bentonite grouting and HDPE pipes. Additionally, in the TPTs, the use of concrete grouting and STS pipes in the coaxial-type GHEXs enhanced the in-situ thermal performance by 15 and 33.8%, respectively.

Performing a series of in-situ thermal response tests, the effective thermal conductivity of six vertical closed-loop ground heat exchangers was experimentally evaluated and compared each other, which were constructed in a test bed in Wonju. To compare thermal efficiency of the ground heat exchangers in field, the six boreholes were constructed with different construction conditions: grouting materials (cement vs. bentonite), different additives (silica sand vs. graphite) and the shape of pipe-sections (general U-loop type vs. 3 pipe-type). From the test results, it can be concluded that cement grouting has a higher effective thermal conductivity than that of bentonite grouting, and the efficiency of graphite better performs over silica sand as a thermally-enhancing addictive. In addition, a new 3 pipe-type heat exchanger provides less thermal interference between the inlet and outlet pipe than the conventional U-loop type heat exchanger, which results in superior thermal performance.

This paper describes the results of steam turbine performance tests. The objectives of performance test is to exactly evaluate the degradation(decrease in performance) of the coal-fired steam turbine generator in order to provide plant information to help performance engineers identify problems, improve performance, and make economic decisions about scheduling maintenance and optimizing operation. To achieve these goals, the periodic thermal performance tests have been carried out since the initial operation period, 1997. We made the calculation program and guidelines for the tests and developed the performance index of the turbine cycle on the basis of the ASME PTC. By comparing the performance changes throughout the whole operation period, we confirmed the performance reliabilities of the turbine and its conditions.

본 논문에서는 열상장비의 광 검출기에서 검출된 미약한 전기적 신호를 영상신호처리를 하기 위한 신호로 증폭을 해 주는 전단 증폭부의 성능 검사용 ATE(Automatic Test Equipment)를 개발하였다. 기존 ATE 장비는 주로 반도체 소자 양품검사 분야에서 활발히 개발되고 있었으나 최근에는 장비의 성능검사 분야에서도 연구되고 있다. 그러나 열상장비 성능검사 분야의 ATE 에 대한 연구는 다른 분야에 비해 미진하여 우리군의 핵심적인 감시 장비인 열상장비는 정비가 제한되었다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 새로운 열상장비 분야의 ATE 연구가 필요하여 전단증폭부 및 열상장비의 다른 회로카드의 범용적인 개발이 가능하도록 Matrix Relay를 개발하였다. 개발된 ATE로 전단증폭부의 증폭도를 측정한 결과 증폭 전압은 평균 2.71 Vpp로써 이론적인 분석 범위 내에 있음이 확인되어 개발된 ATE가 우수한 성능임이 검증되었다.

This paper presents the results of a series of performance tests for the Stilting cryocooler. Infrared sensor systems incorporating cryocoolers are required to be qualified to the appropriate environmental specification. Linear drive Stilting cryocooler have matured to the stage of undergoing formal qualification test program The thermal environmental test of the Stilting cryocooler is presented in this paper. We performed that low and high temperature keeping test from －4$0^{\circ}C$ to ＋6$0^{\circ}C$ and operating test at high and low temperature cyclic range with acceptance tests performed at scheduled intervals. Cooling capacity was determined as a function of cooler components temperatures at the compressor, hot end and cold tip. Tests performed on this cooler have been successful with a measured cooling performance of more than 0.8W＠80K for 23$^{\circ}C$ ambient temperature with 40 $W_{ac}$ input power.

Radiant heat shields are normally installed on offshore oil and gas platforms to protect personnel, equipment, and structures from the thermal radiation emitted by a flare system. A heat shield should be individually designed to reduce the thermal radiation to the target level, and then manufactured and installed after the performance verification. However, in general, a heat shield is designed and manufactured by trial and error based on the performance test. For this reason, it is difficult to develop and design radiant heat shields in the Korean shipbuilding and marine equipment industry because of the lack of performance test data and limited experience. In the present study, the results of experiments conducted to verify the performances of radiant heat shields were analyzed, and the thermal radiation characteristics and performance characteristics of the radiant heat shields were investigated. The insights and conclusions developed in the present study will be useful in terms of the design and development of radiant heat shield, as well as in their performance verification tests.

Knowledge of ground thermal properties is most important for the proper design of BHE(borehole heat exchanger) systems. The configure 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 in-situ determination of design data for Standing Column Well apply. The main purpose has been to determine in-situ 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 sub-circulation pump, a boiler, temperature sensors, flow meter and a data logger for recording the temperature and circulation fluid flow data. A constant heating power is injected into the SCW through the test rig and the resulting temperature change in the SCW is recorded. The recorded temperature data are analysed with a line-source model, which gives the effective in-situ values of rock thermal conductivity and thermal resistance of SCW.
