Recently, the use of renewable energy has been increased due to growing concern on the energy-saving at buildings and the reduction of $CO_2$ emission. In the field of architecture, to reduce the energy consumption of heating, cooling and hot water supply, heat pump systems with renewable energy has been developed and used in various applications. However, there have been many of researches on the large-scale commercial heat pump systems, but the research and the field application of a compact heat pump system is rare. Therefore, in order to develop the compact heat pump for the small-scale residential building, this study conducted the performance test and feasibility study for a hybrid heat pump using the heat source of air, solar and ground. In the results of experiments through a trial product, the average COP of cooling mode with ground heat source was 4.75, and it of heating mode was 4.03. Furthermore, the average COP of cooling mode with air heat source was 2.60, and it of heating mode was 2.92. Finally, payback period of the system was calculated as 9.2 years.

펌프는 산업 및 건설현장에 급수, 냉난방 및 산업공정에서 다양하게 사용되고 있으며, 전체 국가 전력의 약 20%를 소비하고 있다. 하지만 에너지 낭비요소에 대한 관리는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 만일 효율이 저하된 상태로 펌프가 운전된다면 그의 에너지 낭비는 대단히 크게 된다. 펌프의 경우 초기 구입비용에 비해 사용하면서 발생하는 전력비용이 대단히 크기 때문에 이러한 낭비를 줄이기 위해서는 펌프의 효율을 정기적으로 측정하여 펌프의 운전 상태를 진단함으로써 펌프의 최적운전상태 및 교환주기 등을 제시할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 펌프의 효율측정을 위해 열역학적 방법과 수력학적 방법(전통적인 방법)의 두 가지 방법으로 측정할 수 있는 장비에 대해서 소개하고 실제 펌프의 효율을 계산하여 그 유효성을 확인하였다.

As new one of superconducting power supplies, we proposed an HTS flux pump utilized a solar energy system. As an eternal electric energy can be converted by the solar system, the solar energy system is promisingly applied as an energy source in the power applications. Especially, since the solar energy system played a role in conventional utility power, total power consumption of the flux pump system are provided by solar energy. That means its operating efficiency is remarkably improved compared with developed flux pumps. A solar energy system is comprised of solar panel, photo-voltaic (PV) controller, converter and battery. The HTS flux pump consists of an electromagnet, two thermal heaters and a Bi-2223 magnet. In this paper, we describe the possibility the fusion technology between superconducting power supply and solar energy system. As a fundamental step, the fabrication, structure and experimental results are explained.

The purpose of this study is to examine the energy consumption, carbon dioxide emission & energy cost of district heating using sewage source. The annual TOE of heat pump using sewage source save 37.1 percent than city gas boiler. And annual carbon dioxide emission of heat pump cut down 41.3 percent than city gas boiler. If it charges the rate schedule for district heating to apartment resident, collected amount are 3,127,170 thousand won. As energy cost of heat pump & circulation pump are 1,378,072 thousand won. the profits are 1,749,098 thousand won. As payback period is 8.97years, applicability is low level. However, it has advantages in energy consumption, carbon dioxide emission & energy cost. Therefore, it needs to proceed through government assistance.

In the present study, performances of fuel cell driven compound source hybrid heat pump system applied to a large community building are simulated. Among several renewable energy sources, ground, river, sea, and waste water sources are chosen as available alternative energies. The performance and energy cost are varied with the hybrid heat pump sources. The system design and operation process appropriate for the surrounding circumstance guarantee the high benefit of the heat pump system applied to a large community building. Th system is driven by fuel cell system instead of the late-night electricity due to the advantages of the low energy cost and waste heat with high temperature.

A pump turbine is a technically matured option for energy production and storage systems. At the off-design operating range, the pump turbine succumbed to flow instabilities, which correlated with the pump turbine geometry. A low specific speed pump turbine was designed and modified according to the impeller blade angle. Reynolds-Average Navier-Stokes is carried out with a shear stress transport turbulence model to evaluate the detailed flow characteristics in the pump turbine. The impeller blade inlet angle (𝛽₁) and outlet angle (𝛽₂) are used to evaluate hydraulic loss in the pump turbine. When 𝛽₁ changed from low to high value, the maximum efficiency is increased by 4.75% in turbine mode. The S-Curve inclination is reduced by 8% and 42% for changes in 𝛽₁ and 𝛽₂ from low to high values, respectively. At α = 21°, the shock loss coefficient (𝜁_s) is reduced by 16% and 19% with increases of 𝛽₁ and 𝛽₂ from low to high values, respectively. When 𝛽₁ and 𝛽₂ values increased from low to high, the impeller friction coefficient (𝜁_f) increased and decreased by 20% and 8%, respectively. Hence, the high 𝛽₂ effectively reduced the loss coefficient and S-Curve inclination.

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.

In this research, optimum design of the combined solar collector, geothermal heat pump and thermal seasonal storage system for heating and cooling a sample greenhouse is studied. In order to optimize the system from technical point of view some new control strategies and functions resulting from important TRNSYS output diagrams are presented. Temperatures of ground, rock bed storage, outlet ground heat exchanger fluid and entering fluid to the evaporator specify our strategies. Optimal heat storage is done with maximum efficiency and minimum loss. Mean seasonal heating and cooling COPs of 4.92 and 7.14 are achieved in series mode as there is no need to start the heat pump sometimes. Furthermore, optimal parallel operation of the storage and the heat pump is studied by applying the same control strategies. Although the aforementioned system has higher mean seasonal heating and cooling COPs (4.96 and 7.18 respectively) and lower initial cost, it requires higher amounts of auxiliary energy either. Soil temperature around ground heat exchanger will also increase up to $1.5^{\circ}C$ after 2 years of operation as a result of seasonal storage. At the end, the optimum combined system is chosen by trade-off between technical and economic issues.

Alluvium is sedimentary stratum and composed of gravel, sand, silt, clay. Permeability of alluvium is the higher. If alluvium have lots of aquifer, will be of great use heat source and heat sink of heat pump. Alluvium aquifer contain the thermal energy of surrounding ground. Also geothermal heat pump using alluvium aquifer reduce expenses than general geothermal heat pump, because geothermal heat pump using alluvium aquifer make use of single well. In this study geothermal heat pump using alluvium aquifer was installed and tested for a building. The heat pump capacity is 30USRT. Temperature of ground water is in $12{\sim}17^{\circ}C$ annually and the quality of the water is as good as living water. The heat pump cooling COP is 4.4 ~ 4.7. The system cooling COP is 3.25 ~ 3.6. This performance is as good as BHE type ground source heat pump.

A water hydraulic pump is likely to have serious problems of high leakage, friction and low energy efficiency. A water hydraulic pump has commonly a fixed displacement type and its outlet flow is adjusted by controlling rotation speed of the pump, which can be implemented by using an electric inverter. This study aims to investigate energy efficiency of the water hydraulic pump system which is driven by an electric inverter. The study is based on the experimental results. The pump which is used in the study shows relatively good efficiency and low leakage, low friction as well. The reasons for the good performance of pump is also investigated.
