Fixed bed is known to be an effective heat transfer augmentation device which could be applied to heat exchangers. In this study, pressure drop in vertical cylindrical and annular fixed beds with air flowing through was experimentally investigated. Based on the experimental data and some analytical considerations, the demensionless correlation of pressure drop has been determined and shown in empirical forms. In particular, the experimental equation for the pressure drop was derived using the particle diameter and the bed diameter as variables, which would be more practical and useful in the design of heat transfer devices, instead of void fraction which had been used previously as the major variables by others. The present empirical equation obtained for the cylindrical fixed bed were found to be applicable also to an annular fixed bed when the concept of effective diameter was introduced.

Since the operating pressure of $CO_2$ gascooler is so high compared with that of previous subcritical condenser, the optimization of gascooler is needed for improve heat exchanger performance. In this study, the performance characteristics of five kinds of heat exchangers were analyzed and compared with operating conditions. As a result, the 4-20 HX-tube shows the maximum gascooler capacity because the heat transfer is effective and pressure drop is small. Beside, the high performance of 4-20 HX-tube could be keep for wide operating condition.

The heat exchange part in a modern multi-type air-conditioning system employs multiple-pass heat exchangers. The heat-transfer performance of an each pass in such an exchanger depends strongly on the length of the two-phase region and the mass flow of the refrigerant. The total length and diameters of the pipes, the exit conditions, and the arrangement of each pass as well as the geometrical shape of the distributor at the branching sections are considered to be major factors affecting the heat-transfer performance. The refrigerant commonly used in these systems is HCFC-22. The two objectives of this paper are to investigate the characteristics of the refrigerant flow rate and the superheat in the evaporator of a multi-type air-conditioning system for a single or simultaneous operating conditions and to control the superheat and the refrigerant flow rate of the evaporator.

The objectives of this paper are to estimate the ground thermal conductivity by ground heat exchangers in two different places - Chooncheon and Wonjoo, and to analyze the effect of ground thermal conductivity on the ground thermal diffusivity and the size of the ground heat exchanger. In Chooncheon area, a single-U type HDPE pipe (25mm diameter) with borehole diameter of 150mm, length of 150m is installed. In Wonjoo area, a single-U type HDPE pipe (40mm diameter) with borehole diameter 150mm, length of 200m is installed. It is found that the ground thermal conductivities are estimated as 2.69 $W/m^{\circ}C$ and 2.99 $W/m^{\circ}C$ in Chooncheon and Wonjoo, respectively. It is also found that the ground heat exchanger size is reduced by 8.6% with 25% increase of ground thermal conductivity, and increase by 11.8% with 25% decrease of ground thermal conductivity.

Ground temperature restoration characteristics are the crucial factors to evaluate whether a ground source heat pump system can keep long time steady operation. They are mainly dependent on soil thermal properties, layout of pile group, operation/shutoff ratio, cooling/heating load, thermal imbalance ratio and so on. On the one hand, several types of vertical pile foundation heat exchangers are intercompared to determine the most efficient one by performance test and numerical method. On the other hand, according to the layout of pile group of a practical engineering and running conditions of a GSHP system in Shanghai, the temperature distribution during a period of five years is numerically studied. The numerical results are analyzed and are used to provide some guidance for the design of large-scale GSHP system.

An experimental study has been conducted on the free convection heat transfer for the 7 kinds of circular finned tube heat exchangers. Empirical correlation was suggested at the range of 3,500$D_o$/$D_i$<3.0, 0.19<$P_f$/$D_i$<0.34. The 92% of experimental data agreed with the correlation within 10%.

The objectives of the present work is to investigate the influence of the solution cooled absorber(SCA), refrigerant drain heat exchanger(RSX), exhaust gas/solution heat exchanger(ESX) and high efficiency solution heat exchanger on COP for a double-effect series-flow absorption chiller. A simulation program has been prepared for the cycle analysis of absorption chillers. As a result, Solution heat exchangers(LSX, HSX) are a most effective element for the COP than the others. In spite of the poor contribution to COP, SCA make a rule to reduce the crystallization phenomena of LiBr solution at solution heat exchanger. And the optimum solution split ratio are varied with the relative size of RSX and LSX.

A dynamic model of a water heater system heated by a heat pump was developed. The water heater system was composed of heat pump and hot water reservoirs. Finite volume method (FVM) was applied to describe the heat exchangers. A new constraint on electronic expansion valve (EEV) or thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) that can control superheat after the evaporator was developed. Dynamic performances were evaluated for various sizes of the reservoir. In order to compare those performances, time scale was normalized by time constant representing the characteristics of reservoir size. Time constant was determined from quasi steady-state simulation of the system. From the simulation, the size of the water heater reservoir was found to have a large influence on the transient performance of the sys- tem. Therefore, the optimization of the reservoir size is needed in a design process.

A design method has been developed for a Stirling engine with a tubular heater and cooler and a screen type regenerator. This paper provides a design procedure to determine the thermodynamic states and the geometric configurations of the Stirling engine for residential heat pumps. The major design is concerned with the working spaces, i.e. compression and expansion spaces and the heat exchangers such as the heater, the cooler and the regenerator. The Schmidt analysis has been employed to obtain the mass flow rates and heat transfer requirements of the system. The performance analysis of a model Stirling engine was performed by Martini-Weiss program to prove the validity of this design method. The results obtained indicate that this design method is valid for the Stirling engine conceptual design and performance analysis.
