열에너지 저장은 고온 또는 저온의 잉여 열에너지를 저장하여 수요 발생 시 사용하기 위한 기술로서 에너지의 수요와 공급 사이의 불균형을 해소하고, 이를 통해 에너지 시스템의 효율을 향상시킬 수 있다. 특히 간헐적인 신재생에너지 자원을 열에너지 형태로 변환하거나 저장함으로써 에너지 믹스에서 신재생에너지의 비중을 제고할 수 있으며, 이를 위해서는 열에너지 저장 장치와의 조합이 반드시 필요하다. 지하 암반공동을 이용한 열에너지 저장은 높은 건설비용이 수반되어 그 활용이 제한적이지만, 대규모의 열에너지를 장기간 저장할 수 있는 가장 현실적인 방법이다. 또한 기후조건에 따라 외부로의 열손실이 영향을 받는 지상의 열저장소와는 달리, 열저장 지하 암반공동은 장기 운영 시 주변 암반의 히팅에 따른 열손실의 감소를 기대할 수 있다. 본고에서는 열저장 암반공동의 형상 및 다중배치 설계 시 고려해야 할 주요 인자들을 소개하고, 저장공간의 설계에 대한 가이드라인을 제안하였다.

Phenomena of direct contact condensation (DCC) heat transfer between steam and water are characterized by the transport of heat and mass through a moving steam/water interface. Application of the phenomena of DCC heat transfer to the engineering industries provides some advantageous features in the viewpoint of enhanced heat transfer. This study proposes a simple condensation model on the steam jets discharging into subcooled water from a single horizontal pipe for the prediction of the steam jet shapes. The analysis model was derived from the mass, momentum and energy equations as well as a thermal balance equation with condensing characteristics at the steam/water interface for the axi-symmetric coordinates. The extremely large heat transfer rate at the steam/water interface was reflected in the effective thermal conductivity estimated from the previous experimental results. The analysis results were compared with the experimental ones. The analysis model predicted that the steam jet shape (i. e. radius and length) was increasing as the steam mass flux and the pool temperature were increasing, which was similar in trend to that observed in the experiment.

This paper presents the experimental and simulation study of a loop heat pipe (LHP) that can be applied to present electronics, space missions and thermal control systems. The present experimental study was carried out employing sintered alumina ceramic wick ($d=2.96\;{\mu}m$, ${\phi}=0.61$). High purity R-134a, R-22 and water were also used as alternative working fluids in addition to ammonia. The experimental study showed that the maximum heat transfer performance for the test LHP in the vertical top heating mode was over 100 Watts when ammonia was used as the working fluid. The simulation results have been compared with the experimental results to validate a simulation model based on the thermal resistance network that was developed to evaluate the performance of LHPs, focusing on their prospective applications in electronics. The simulation model is based on the loop overall energy, mass, and momentum balance. The simulation program can predict the effects of various parameters which affect the performance of LHP within 5% compared with the experimental results.

We have developed a $kW_e$ class liquid fuel based solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system. Our final target is to develop the 1 $kW_e$ diesel based SOFC system for residential power generator(RPG). In this study, we present the conceptual design of SOFC system. System is composed of hot-box and cold-box. Planar typed SOFC stack, heat exchanger, combustor for stack tail gas, and fuel processor, such as fuel reformer and desulfurizer, are contained in the hot-box. And several balance of plants(BOP), such as fuel suppliers and controller, are contained in the cold-box. Before the SOFC system fabrication, we have already operated the selfsustaining fuel processor, and heat exchange of all heat-related components is simulated using ASPEN HYSYS, because heat maintenance and management in hot-box are important for stable operation of SOFC system. The self-sustained fuel processor was successfully operated for about 250 hours, and heat exchange is enough to operate the SOFC system.

본 논문에서는 다중 버너를 채택한 2 t/h 급 수관식 보일러 휜(fin)이 설치된 증발관 모듈이 제안하였다. 휜의 형상은 보일러를 구성하는 각각의 모듈에서 고르게 증발이 이루어질 수 있도록 설계하였다. 이를 위해서 기존의 벌크 설계 과정이 아닌 각각의 열에 대해 에너지 보존을 고려하는 방식으로 설계를 수행하였다. 설계한 증발관 모듈로 2 t/h 급 수관식 보일러를 제작하여 성능을 실험하여 설계를 검증하였다. 설계 과정에서 고려되지 않은 입구 조건 등의 2, 3차원 효과를 파악하기 위하여 수치해석을 병행하였다. 수치해석은 휜 팁의 온도도 예측하기 위하여 증발관의 전도를 포함한 복합열전달해석을 하였다. 휜이 설치될 경우 휜의 크기와 밀도가 증가할수록 열전달 계수가 상관식보다 낮아졌고 수치해석으로 구한 휜 팁의 온도는 해석해로 예측한 값보다 높게 나타났다.

지중 열교환 시스템은 지속적인 에너지 효율의 개선으로 공간 냉난방을 위한 친환경적 에너지 기술로 주목받고 있다. 지중에 매설된 파이프는 내부 유체 순환을 통하여 인접한 지반과 열적 상호작용으로부터 직접적인 열에너지 교환을 수행한다. 하지만, 파이프의 수치모델링에서 열-수리가 연관된 난류해석과 파이프의 긴 세장비에 의한 메쉬사이즈의 부적합성은 열교환 시스템의 적절한 수치해석을 어렵게 하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 파이프 내부 유체흐름에 대한 에너지 보존의 법칙을 적용하여 지배방정식을 유도하였으며, Galerkin수식화와 시간적분을 통하여 열-수리 연동일차원 파이프 요소를 개발하였다. 그리고 제안된 파이프 요소를 기 개발된 다공질 재료를 위한 열-수리-역학(Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical) 해석을 위한 유한요소 프로그램과 결합하였다. 개발된 요소를 이용한 수치해석 결과는 열응답 시험(Thermal Response Test) 결과로부터 주위지반의 유효 열전도도를 평가하기 위하여 사용하는 선형 열원 모델이 인접 파이프간의 열적상호작용과 파이프의 단부효과에 의하여 지반의 열전도도를 과다 평가하는 것으로 보여주었다. 따라서 열응답 시험 해석 결과에 대한 역해석을 적용하여 최적의 수렴성을 보여주는 변환행렬을 제시하였다.

A 5kW class SOFC cogeneration system consisted of a hot box part, a cold BOP (balance of plant) part, and a hot water reservoir. The hot box part contained a stack, a fuel reformer, a catalytic combustor, and heat exchangers. A cold BOP part was composed of blowers, pumps, a water trap, and system control units. A 5kW stack was designed to integrate 2 sub-modules. In this paper, the 5kW class SOFC system was operated using 2 short stacks connected in parallel to test the sub-module and the system. A short stack had 15 cells with $15{\times}15 cm^2$ area. When a natural gas was used, the total power was about 1.38 kW at 120A. Because the sub-modules were connected in parallel and current was loaded using a DC load, voltages of sub-modules were same and the currents were distributed according to the resistance of sub-modules. The voltage of the first stack was 11.46 V at 61A and the voltage of the second stack was 11.49V at 59A.

Global efforts have made to reduce energy consumption and $CO_2$ gas emission. One of the weakest parts for energy loss through the whole building components is building envelopes. Lots of technologies to increase the thermal performance of building envelopes have been introduced in recent year. Transparent Insulation Wall(TIW) is a new technology for building insulation and has been function both solar transmittance and thermal insulation. A mathematical model of a Transparent Insulation Wall equipped with south wall was proposed in order to predict thermal performance under varying climates(summer and winter). Unsteady state heat transfer equations were set up using an energy balance equation and solved using Gauss-Seidel iteration solution procedure. The thermal performance of the TIW determined from a wall surface and air layer temperature, non-airconditioned room temperature and air conditioning load. As a result, this numerical study shows that the TIW is effective in an air conditioning load reduction. Further experimental study is required to establish complete TIW system.

A numerical analysis is conducted to estimate the core expansion and the energy behaviors induced by a core disruptive accident in a sodium-cooled fast reactor. The numerical formulation based on underwater explosion theory is carried out to simulate the core explosion inside the reactor vessel. The transient pressure, temperature and expansion of the core are examined by solving the equation of state and nonlinear governing equation of momentum conservation in one-dimensional spherical coordinates. The energy balance inside the computation domain is examined during the core expansion process. Heat transfer between the core and the sodium coolant, and the bubble rise during the expansion process are briefly investigated.

Land surface temperature ($T_s$) is a critical variable for understanding the surface energy exchange between land and atmosphere. Using the data measured from micrometeorological flux towers, three types of $T_s$, obtained using a thermal-infrared radiometer (IRT), a net radiometer, and an equation for sensible heat flux, were compared. The $T_s$ estimated using the net radiometer was highly correlated with the $T_s$ obtained from the IRT. Both values acceptably fit the $T_s$ from the Terra/MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer)satellite. These results will enhance the measurement of land surface temperatures at various scales. Further, they are useful for understanding land surface energy partitioning to evaluate and develop land surface models and algorithms for satellite remote sensing products associated with surface thermal conditions.
