Vibration problems occurred in an air cooled heat exchanger with axial flow fan for a petrochemical plant were investigated. Experimental field test and theoretical verification were performed. To find the main cause of the high vibration of the fan at the air inlet of the axial fan, the frequency spectrum was measured. The natural frequency of the driving support of the heat exchanger was numerically calculated. Both of the measured and the natural frequency were approximately equal to the blade passing frequency. Because it was difficult to modify the structure of the driving support during the normal operation of the plant, the blade number of the fan was increased, which greatly reduced the vibration level of the heat exchanger.

Performance of an air-cooled plate heat exchanger (PHE) was evaluated in this study. The PHE was manufactured in two types of single-wave and double-wave plates in parallel assembly. The heat exchanger aims to substitute open-loop cooling towers with closed-loop water circulation, which guarantees cleanliness and compactness. In this study, prototype single-wave and double-wave PHEs were designed and tested in a laboratory scale experiments. From the tests, the double-wave PHE shows approximately 50% enhanced heat transfer performance compared to the single-wave PHE. However, the double-wave PHE costs 30% additional pressure drop. For the commercialization, a wide channel design for air flow would be essential for performance and reliability.

In this experimental study, the air cooling radial shape heat exchanger which influences on the COP and the cooling capacity by heat and mass transfer rate in the adsorbent bed was designed and applied to test its performance for adsorption heat pump(AHP). Zeolite-water was used for the adsorbent-adsorbat pair. As a result, the cooling COP and a cycle period of this adsorption heat pump are 0.28 and 2 hours, respectively, on the condition of none heat recovery from the adsorption reactor(absorber). The other results and recommendations are mainly related to improving the heat and mass transfer inside the absorber to reduce a cycle period.

Vibration problems induced by an air cooled heat exchanger with axial flow fan were investigated during the operation of a petrochemical plant. Two different studies were done; one was experimental field test and the other was theoretical verification. To find main cause of the blade passing frequency of the fan after installing additional blockage board at the air inlet of the axial fan, the frequency spectrum was measured. The vibrations of the blade passing frequency became higher. The natural frequency of driving support of the heat exchanger was theoretically calculated. It was approximately equal to the blade passing frequency. During the normal operation of the plant, it was impossible to modify the structure of the driving support. Instead, the blade number was increased to reduce vibration level. It increased the ratio of the forcing frequency to the natural frequency of the driving support over the resonance region.

극초음속 비행체의 속도증가와 엔진효율의 향상으로 비행체와 엔진의 열적부하가 증가하게 되었다. 극초음속 영역에서 공기흐름의 온도는 매우 높기 때문에 공냉방식을 이용한 냉각이 불가능하므로, 비행체 연료를 주 냉각제로써 이용하는 것은 필수적이다. 흡열연료(Endothermic fuels)는 열분해 또는 촉매분해와 같은 흡열반응(Endothermic reaction)을 통해 열을 흡수하는 액체 탄화수소 비행체 연료이다. 흡열반응은 촉매를 이용하여 전환율과 생성물 분포를 변화시킴으로써 개선될 수 있다. 고온의 액체 탄화수소는 코킹 생성을 유발하여 열교환기의 효율을 저하시키고 촉매 비활성을 촉진시킬 수 있기 때문에, 흡열연료의 흡열능력은 코킹생성(Coke formation)이 발생하기 전까지의 온도로 제한한다. 본 연구 에서는 흡열연료를 적용한 주요 냉각기술동향과 흡열연료의 특성이 기술되었다.
