에너지 절약적 차원에서 한 대의 실외기에 다수의 실내기가 접속되는 개별공조형 멀티 열펌프에 관한 연구 및 개발과 보급이 증대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 복수의 실내기를 갖고 가변속 압축기를 채용한 지열원 물대공기 멀티열펌프시스템을 학교 현장에 설치하여 제조사의 운전 제어 알고리즘에 따라 일일 냉난방 실증 성능 특성을 분석하였다. 2008년 9월 30일의 냉방부하가 낮은 일자에 대하여 시간에 따른 부하 변동에 따라 압축기의 용량가변으로 실내기 냉방용량은 정격용량 대비 17.1%에서 111.3%의 범위에서 변이되었으나, 열펌프 유닛의 일일 최대 COP는 6.2를 나타냈으며, 일일 평균 열펌프 유닛 COP는 4.5로 열펌프 유닛 인증 기준 이상의 성능을 나타냈다. 2008년 11월 10일 대비 2008년 12월 15일에는 시스템 가동 중의 평균 외기온도가 $9.6^{\circ}C$ 감소하였으나, 각 재실공간의 용도별 부분 부하특성으로 11월 10일 보다 난방 부하량이 작게 나타났다. 하지만, 12월 15일에는 부하량이 매우 작아서 11월 10일보다 잦은 압축기 가변에 따른 손실로 일일 평균 COP가 낮게 나타났다. 2009년 1월 12일에는 정격 용량대비 94%의 부하율로 11월 10일과 12월 15일 대비 4배 이상의 부하량으로 압축기 용량 가변율이 작아서 난방용량과 COP 변화율이 작게 나타났다. 2009년 1월 12일에는 지중순환수의 실외열교환기 유입온도가 2008년 12월 15일보다 감소하고, 시스템의 난방용량 증가로 상대적으로 응축기와 증발기 크기가 감소한 효과로 히트펌프 유닛 COP가 감소하였으나, 본 지열원 열펌프 제조사에서 생산하고 있는 본 지열원 시스템과 동일한 압축기 등을 채용한 동일 용량의 공기열원 열펌프의 1월 12일 외기온도 $-10^{\circ}C$에서의 열펌프 유닛 COP 대비 70% 우수한 성능을 나타냈다. 본 지열원 히트펌프의 2008년 11월 10일의 일일 평균 히트펌프 유닛 COP는 외기온도가 낮고 일일 부하량이 크게 나타난 1월 12일의 일일 평균 히트펌프 유닛 COP 대비 37% 높게 나타났으나, 지중순환펌프의 정속운전으로 시스템 요구 지중순환수 유량 증가에 따른 성능 향상보다 소비전력 증가 영향이 커서 1월 12일의 시스템 COP 보다 33.3% 작은 값을 나타냈다. 본 연구의 용량 가변형 압축기를 채용한 지열원 멀티 히트펌프 유닛을 지열원 냉난방 시스템의 히트펌프 유닛으로 사용할 경우 시스템 최적화를 통한 시스템 COP 향상과 연간에너지 절감을 이루기 위해서는 히트펌프의 용량 변화 시에 지중순환펌프의 순환 유량 최적화를 위한 효율적 운전 제어 알고리즘 개발이 요구된다.

For the district heating and cooling business, it is required to install energy-saving facilities using energy from waste and land fill gases such as combined heat and power(CHP). The current issues that this business faces can be summarized as below: which facilities including CHP can be economically introduced and how much of their capacities should be. Most of such issues are clearly related to the optimal plant design of the district heating and cooling business, and the prices of energy services such as heating and cooling energy, and electricity. The purpose of this study is to establish linear program model of least cost function and to practice the empirical test on a assumed district heating and cooling business area. The model could choose the optimal type of energy-producing facilities among various kinds available such as CHP's, absorption chillers, the ice-storage system, etc. CHP with the flexible heat and power ratio is also in the set of available technologies. And the model show us the optimal ration of heat producing facilities between CHP and historical heat only boiler in the service area. Some implications of this study are summarized as below. Firms may utilize this model as a tool for the analysis of their optimal size of the facilities and operation. Also, the government may refer the results to regulate resonable size of business.

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.

This work aims to develop a platform to investigate the effect of operation schedules on the building energy consumption and to derive a simulation model based optimal start and stop daily strategy. An open-source building energy simulation tool DOE2 is used for the engine, and the developed simulation model is validated using ASHRAE guideline 14. The effect of late-start/early-stop operation of HVAC system on the daily building energy consumption was analyzed using the developed simulation model. It was found that about 10% of energy consumption cut was possible using the control strategy for an hour of advance of the stop operation, and about 3% per an hour of delay of the start operation.

The shopping center in underground passage increased for efficient space utilization in urban area. This study describes operation characteristics of all air type and hybrid type with local ventilation and fan coil unit fixed to ceiling. In order to compare energy saving, thermal environment and installation space, etc., integrated simulator with heat production and indoor distribution system is designed and constructed. Energy saving of the hybrid system is calculated as over 30% compared to conventional all air type. And also the results showed that humidity decreased about 6%, also indoor thermal distribution is improved as temperature variation of around $1^{\circ}C$.

The cooling load in winter is significant in many commercial buildings and hotels because of the usage of office equipments and the high efficiency of wall insulation. The development of a multi-heat pump that can cover heating and cooling simultaneously for each indoor unit is required. In this study, the performance of a multi-heat pump with 3-piping system was investigated as a function of refrigerant charge and its performance was analyzed in cooling mode, heating mode, and heat recovery mode. COP in the heating or cooling mode showed little dependence on refrigerant charge at overcharge conditions, while those were strongly dependent on refrigerant charge at undercharge conditions and outdoor inlet temperature. In the heat recovery mode, the performance of the system was very sensitive to charge amount at all conditions. Optimum charge amount in the heat recovery mode was 14% lower than that in the cooling mode at the standard condition because the refrigerant only passed the indoor units. It is required to store the excessive refrigerant charge in a storage tank to optimize the system performance at operating modes.

A simulation methodology and corresponding program based on it is to be discussed for analyzing the effects of the networking operation of existing DHC system in connection with CHP system on-site. The practical simulation for arbitrary areas with various building compositions is carried out for the analysis of operational features in both systems, and the various aspects of thermal energy grids with connecting operation are highlighted through the detailed assessment of predicted results. The intrinsic operational features of CHP prime movers, gas engine, gas turbine etc., are effectively implemented by realizing the performance data, i.e. actual operation efficiency in the full and part loads range. For the sake of simplicity, a simple mathematical correlation model is proposed for simulating various aspects of change effectively on the existing DHC system side due to the connecting operation, instead of performing cycle simulations separately. The empirical correlations are developed using the hourly based annual operation data for a branch of the Korean District Heating Corporation (KDHC) and are implicit in relation between main operation parameters such as fuel consumption by use, heat and power production. In the simulation, a variety of system configurations are able to be considered according to any combination of the probable CHP prime-movers, absorption or turbo type cooling chillers of every kind and capacity. From the analysis of the thermal network operation simulations, it is found that the newly proposed methodology of mathematical correlation for modelling of the existing DHC system functions effectively in reflecting the operational variations due to thermal energy grids with connecting operation. The effects of intrinsic features of CHP prime-movers, e.g. the different ratio of heat and power production, various combinations of different types of chillers (i.e. absorption and turbo types) on the overall system operation are discussed in detail with the consideration of operation schemes and corresponding simulation algorithms.
