An applying Thermodynamic method for the purpose of measuring hydraulic efficiency of pump-motor system, based on IEC60041 code, is not easy to adopt at field test. Even though there were splendid development in measuring technic in discharge measuring through the hydraulic machina lots of unsolved problems concerned in flow-rate are still remain in measuring hydraulic efficiency in hydraulic machine. The key point in measuring hydraulic efficiency is to measure exact flow-rate. So, Thermodynamic methode provides a good solution. This methode measures hydraulic efficiency by detecting the difference of temperature and pressure between the hydraulic process of machine, without measuring flow-rate of pump or turbine. By measuring temperature in mk level and absolute pressure in pascal, we can get a difference of thermodynamic specific energy in Moliere chart before and after of hydraulic process, md that difference is equal to hydraulic loses. Following the standard in proceeding Thermodynamic methode, I hope these trial and records make others be familiar to the thermal methode and make it easer to beginner for trial.

It is very difficult to accurately calculate efficiency of each accessory device constituting the pump system and pump efficiency by the Conventional efficiency measurement method only. Therefore, this study introduced the lastest Thermodynamic pump efficiency measurement method in the district heating pump system for the first time in Korea. As a result, data uncertainty was high by the Conventional method, but the pump and Hydraulic Coupling efficiency values applied the Thermodynamic and Conventional method parallel measurement data were able to derive meaningful results that verified the reliability and adequancy of the pump performance measurement method by performing complementary roles. In additon, as a result of applying the Thermodynamic method to the distirct heating pump system, despite the high temperature environment of up to 120 ℃, it was possible to verify the reliability of the Thermodynamic method, such as high stable data mesurement, and durability of the measurement equipment.

This paper presents a thermodynamic performance analysis of regenerative organic Rankine cycle (ORC) using turbine bleeding to utilize low-grade finite thermal energy. Refrigerant R245fa was selected as the working fluid. Special attention is paid to the effects of the turbine bleeding pressure and the turbine bleed fraction on the thermodynamic performance of the system such as net power production and thermal efficiency. Results show that the thermal efficiency has an optimum value with respect to the turbine bleeding pressure and the net power production is lower than the basic ORC while the thermal efficiency is higher.

A general concept on the definition of the second law efficiencies of thermodynamic cycles is introduced. The efficiency is defined to be proportional to the entropy generation divided by the maximum possible entropy generation. This way of definition of the cycle efficiency is clear and concise and, moreover, follows faithfully the concept of the second law of thermodynamics. This definition is applied to heat engine, refrigerator and heat pump. The second law efficiencies of heat engine and refrigeration cycles are derived, which are the same as the existing ones, respectively. The second law efficiency of heat pump, however, finds to be different from the existing one. Discussion is given about the difference and its cause.

Thermodynamic method of pump performance measurement calculates pump efficiency and flowrate by measuring fluid temperature increase and pressure rise through the pump. The theory of this method is investigated and precise comparison experiment with classical hydraulic method was conducted to verify the accuracy. Classical hydraulic pump performance measurement results and Yatesmeter results based on the thermodynamic method showed good agreement in measured performance.

This paper investigates the thermodynamic performance of latent heat thermal energy storage system using two phase change materials(2-PCM system). The thermodynamic merit of using 2-PCM is clear in terms of exergetic efficiency, which is substantially higher than that of 1-PCM system. Optimum phase change temperature to maximize the exergetic efficiency exists for each case. The heat transfer area ratio of high temperature storage unit, X, becomes another important parameter for 2-PCM system if the phase change temperatures of given materials are different from those of optimum conditions. It is a good approximation for X$_{opt}$ to be 0.5 when optimum phase change temperatures are used. Otherwise X$_{opt}$ is determined differently as a function of given phase change temperatures.res.

The present study discussed the thermodynamic analysis of the hydrogen liquefaction process to build a hydrogen liquefaction pilot plant with a small capacity (0.5 ton/day). A 2-stage Brayton cycle utilizing LNG/LN2 cold energy was suggested to be built in Korea for the hydrogen liquefaction pilot plant with a small capacity. Thermodynamic analysis on the effect of various variables on the efficiency of hydrogen liquefaction process was performed. As a result, the CASE in which the ortho-para conversion catalyst was infiltrated inside the heat exchanger showed the best process efficiency. Finally, thermodynamic analysis was performed on the effect of turbo expander compression ratio on the hydrogen liquefaction process and it was confirmed that an optimal turbo expander compression ratio exists.

Recently a novel cycle named organic flash cycle (OFC) has been proposed which has improved potential for power generation from low-temperature heat sources. This study carries out thermodynamic performance analysis of OFC using various working fluids for recovery of low-grade heat sources in the form of sensible energy. Special attention is focused on the optimum flash temperature at which the exergy efficiency has the maximum value. Under the optimal conditions with respect to the flash temperature, the thermodynamic performances of important system variables including mass flow ratio, separation ratio, heat addition, specific volume flow rate at turbine exit, and exergy efficiency are thoroughly investigated. Results show that the exergy efficiency has a peak value with respect to the flash temperature and the optimum working fluid which shows the best exergy efficiency varies with the operating conditions.

A numerical study was performed for thermodynamic efficiencies of a basic ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle), ORC with a FLH (Feed Liquid Heater), and ORC with a regenerator. The efficiencies of the basic ORC were higher in the order of R113, R123, R245ca, and R245fa for its working fluids. It was confirmed that an optimal FLH pressure existed to maximize efficiency of the ORC with a FLH. A correlation was developed to predict the optimal FLH pressure as a function of evaporation and condensation pressure and its average absolute deviation was 0.505%. The efficiency enhancement of the basic ORC with a FLH was higher than that with a regenerator. It was presented that the basic ORC efficiency could be improved more than 10% by a FLH with $30^{\circ}C$ condensation and over $110^{\circ}C$ evaporation temperatures.
