지구환경문제와 에너지문제를 해소하는 한 방법으로서 Vuilleumier 사이클 기관(VM)을 이용한 공조기형 열구동형 히트펌프시스템(VMHP)이 각광을 받고 있다. VMHP의 제작에 있어서는 VM의 각 부분의 이론적 검토 및 최적설계를 위한 해석프로그램의 개발이 필수적이고 최적설계를 위한 설계 기본서의 도출 및 설계자료의 확보가 필요하다. VMHP의 상세한 성능해석이나 설계에 활용 가능한 성능해석프로그램을 개발하였다. 해석은 VM의 시스템의 각 부분을 11개 부분으로 나누어 단열모델해석으로 수행하였다. 열교환기에서의 열전달 성능과 재생기손실, 열전도손실, 셔틀손실, 유동에 의한 압력손실과 열압축측과 열펌프측 사이의 마찰손실, 피스턴실 및 로드실의 마찰손실을 고려한 해석을 수행하였다. 해석에 의한 계산치의 정확성을 본 해석결과를 이용하여 제작한 시험기에 의해 비교하였다. 계산치와 시험기에 의한 전체성능을 비교하였고 또한 각각의 손실에서 고유한 파라미터를 추출하여 그 파라미터의 변화에 따른 열손실 전체의 변화 정도를 파악하여 실험치와 계산치의 정상적인 비교로부터 성능해석의 정도를 비교하였다. 비교결과에 의해 난방능력은 8%, 냉방능력은 19%의 최대오차로서 본 해석결과가 VMHP의 설계를 위해 유용한 수단으로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Good plant-growth conditions can be achieved by means of using greenhouses. One of the main issues in greenhouse cultivation is energy savings through the development of high efficient heating and cooling system. GSHPs are one of the recommended systems to cope with this pending need. The aim of this study is to investigate the heating performance of ground source multi-heat pump system installed in a greenhouse under part load conditions. Daily average heating COP of the heat pump unit was very high by at least 7.4, because of relatively large condenser, evaporator, and mass flow rate through ground loop heat exchanger. However, the system COP, overall heating coefficient of the performance of the system with heat pump unit and GLHX, decreased drastically due to relatively large power consumption of circulating pump under part load condition. It is suggested that the technology to enhance the performance of the ground source multi-heat pump system for a greenhouse under part load conditions should be developed.

An aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) system can be very cost-effective and renewable energy sources, depending on site-specific parameters and load characteristics. In order to develop the ATES system which has certain hydrogeological characteristics, understanding the thermohydraulic process of an aquifer is necessary for a proper design of an aquifer heat storage system under given conditions. The thermohydraulic transfer for heat storage was simulated according to two sets of simple pumping and waste water reinjection scenarios of groundwater heat pump system operation in a two-layered aquifer model. In the first set of the scenarios, the movement of the thermal front and groundwater level was simulated by changing the locations of injection and pumping wells in a seasonal cycle. However, in the second set the simulation was performed in the state of fixing the locations of pumping and injection wells. After 365 days simulation period, the shape of temperature distribution was highly dependent on the injected water temperature and the distance from the injection well. A small temperature change appeared on the surface compared to other simulated temperature distributions of 30 and 50 m depths. The porosity and groundwater flow characteristics of each layer sensitively affected the heat transfer. The groundwater levels and temperature changes in injection and pumping wells were monitored and the thermal interference between the wells was analyzed to test the effectiveness of the heat pump operation method applied.
