In the present study, fuel cell driven ground source heat pump system is applied to a large community building and performance of the heat pump system is computationally analyzed. Conduction heat transfer between brine pipe and ground is analyzed by TEACH code to predict the performance of heat pump system. Predicted COP of the heat pump system and the energy cost were compared with variation of the location of the objective building the water saturation rate of soil and the driven powers of heat pump system. Significant reduction of energy cost can be accomplished by employing the fuel cell driven heat pump system in comparison with the late-night electricity driven system. It is due to the low electricity production cost of fuel cell system and the application of recovered waste heat generated during electricity production process to the heating of large community building.

Simulation study of a solar hybrid heat pump using R744 and R22 for residential applications was carried out according to heat pump operating temperature, outdoor temperature and solar radiation. As a result, when the heat pump operating temperature increases from $40^{\circ}C$ to $48^{\circ}C$, the COP of a R744 and R22 heat pump system decrease from 2.15 to 1.7 and from 3.09 to 2.69, respectively. Besides, as the outdoor temperature rises from $3^{\circ}C$ to $11^{\circ}C$, the COP of R744 and R22 heat pump system increase from 1.73 to 2.12 and from 2.73 to 3.02. When the solar radiation increases from 10 to 20 $MJ/m^2$, the collector operating time and collector efficiency of R744 heat pump increase 10.3 times and 50.7%, respectively. The performance of R744 solar hybird heat pump is more sensitive to operation condition compared to that of R22. Besides, the solar heating system is more effective to the R744 heat pump system.

In Korea, air source heat pump system is less efficient than conventional heat source facilities, because the air temperature in winter season is so low that COP of air source heat pump system drops below 3.0. Therefore, the study on the application of heat pump heating and cooling systems is crucial for the efficient popularization of heat pump. In this work, we present the dynamic analysis of energy consumption for the large hospital building by heat resistance-capacitance method. The system simulation of water storage air source heat pump is additionally performed by changing sizes and locations of the hospital building. The computed results show that energy cost of water storage air source heat pump is low, so it is more economical than absorption chiller & heater.

Effluent ground water overflow in deep and broad ground space building. Temperature of effluent ground water is in $12{\sim}20^{\circ}...$ annually and the quality of that water is as good as well water. Therefore if the flow rate of effluent ground water is sufficient as source of heat pump, that is good heat source and heat sink of heat pump. Effuent ground water contain the thermal energy of surrounding ground. So this is a new application of ground source heat pump. In this study open type and close type heat pump system using effluent ground water was installed and tested for a church building with large and deep ground space. The effluent flow rate of this building is $800{\sim}1000\;ton/day$. The heat pump capacity is 5RT. The heat pump heating COP was $3.85{\sim}4.68$ for the open type and $3.82{\sim}4.69$ for the close type system. The system heating COP including pump power is $3.0{\sim}3.32$ for the open type and $3.32{\sim}3.84$ for close type system. This performance is up to that of BHE type ground source heat pump.

Heat-pump system has a special feature that provides heating operation in winter season and cooling operation in summer season with a single system. It also has a merit that absorbs and makes use of wastewater heat, terrestrial heat, and heat energy from the air. Because heat-pump system uses midnight electric power, it decreases power peak load and is very economical as a result. By using the property that energy source is converted to low temperature when losing the heat, high temperature energy source is used to provide heating water and low temperature energy source is used to provide cooling water simultaneously in summer season. This study made up a heat-pump system with 4 air heat sources and a water heat source and implemented the optimal operation algorithm that works with numbers of heat pumps to operate them efficiently. With the heat-pump system, we applied it to cooling and heating operation in summer season operation mode in a real building.

The objectives of this study are to analyze the performance of a heat pump system with the various heat source and to carry out economic assessment for the heat pump system. The COP of the river water and ground source heat pump system was 20% higher than that of the air source heat pump system because river water and geothermal provide stable operating temperature compared with air temperature throughout the year. In addition, the economic assessment of a heat pump system using air, river water, and geothermal as a heat source was carried out. The ratio of the life cycle operating cost to the life cycle cost increased with the increase of building capacity. The payback period was found to be less than 3.3 and 4.5 years, respectively when the capacity of the river water and ground source heat pump was larger than 10 RT.

An energy efficient drying system, utilizing a heat pump to recover the wasted heat with high efficiency is proposed. In conventional drying systems, over-heating occurs through a condenser as the same amount of air is provided into the evaportator and the condenser. In order to prevent the over-heating, part of the outlet air from the drying chamber must be bypassed to increase the rate of vaporization in the drying chamber without release of the heat from the system. Since a part of the heat in the condenser is used to heat the air during the drying process of the proposed system, a high drying efficiency and low SPC(Specific Power Consumption) could be obtained, Comparing the performances between the proposed heat pump and a conventional one, it was found that the drying efficiency of the proposed heat pump is higher than that of the conventional heat pump by an amount of 7-25%.

This paper presents the heating performance analysis results of a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system using hybrid ground heat exchanger (HGHE). In this paper, the HGHE refers to the ground heat exchanger (GHE) using both a surface water heat exchanger (SWHE) and a vertical GHE. In order to evaluate the system performance, we installed monitoring sensors for measuring temperatures and power consumption, and then measured operation data with 4 different load burdened ratios of the HGHE. During the entire measurement period, the average heating capacity of the heat pump was 37.3 kW. In addition, the compressor of the heat pump consumed 9.4 kW of power, while the circulating pump of the HGHE used 6.7 kW of power. Therefore, the average heating coefficient of performance (COP) for the heat pump unit was 4.0, while the system including the circulating pump was 2.7. Finally, the parallel use of SWHE and VGHE was beneficial to the system performance; however, further researches are needed to optimize the design data for various load ratios of the HGHE.

This paper presents the heating performance analysis results of a heat pump system using a dual heat source. In this paper, a dual heat source refers to the ground-coupled heat exchanger using both a surface water heat exchanger (SWHE) and a vertical ground heat exchanger (VGHE). In order to evaluate the system performance, we installed a monitoring system to measure the temperature and power consumption of a heat pump and then collected operation data with 4 different load burdened ratios of the dual heat source heat exchanger. During the whole measurement period, the average heating capacity of a water-to-water heat pump unit was 37.3 kW. In addition, the compressor of the heat pump consumed 9.4 kW of power, while the circulating pump of the dual heat source heat exchanger used 6.7 kW of power. Therefore the average heating coefficient of performance (COP) for the heat pump unit was 4.0, while the entire system including the circulating pump was 2.7. Finally, the parallel use of SWHE and VGHE was beneficial to the system performance; however, further researches are needed to optimize the design data for various load ratios of the dual heat source heat exchanger.
