Efforts have continued in recent years to research and develop new alternative energy sources to replace coal and oil. These days interest is exploding in new pollution-free renewable energy due to the rising prices of finite energy sources. In the field of solar energy, one of new renewable energy that has been actively researched and commercialized, research efforts have been focused on solar light energy, whose efficiency has, however, reached a saturation point already. Thus, this paper proposed a solar tracking-type parabolic heat collection device to utilize solar thermal energy rather than solar light energy. The proposed device was designed in a parabolic form to collect solar heat effectively. The investigator made its prototype by incorporating a five-axis censor-based solar tracking technology in it to sense changes to the location of the sun according to the seasons and periods. In addition, an administrator interface was designed and implemented for the efficient management of heat collection device.

As the global warming due to greenhouse effect has become serious problem, it is necessary to introduce the technology, for instance, such as diversity or saving of energy to reduce the use of fossil fuel. The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics on materials of absorption plate, unpowered and minimum use of power in cooling and heating combined device. As the results, it was observed that, in case of summer, since temperature of absorption device of solar heat(ADSH) was lower than that of no ADSH, cooling effect was insignificant in case of being not installed cold-reservoir. However, in case of winter, heating effect was certified even though the power was not used. At secondhand, the performance of ADSH with Cu was higher 2 times than that of ADSH with Al.

태양열시스템은 하절기에 급탕과 난방 부하가 적거나, 거의 없어 시스템의 과열 문제가 야기 될 수 있다. 이를 해결하는 방안 중에 하나로 흡수식 냉방시스템을 이용하여 하절기 잉여열원을 활용하여 냉방하는 방법이 대두되고 있다. 태양열 냉방시스템은 전기에너지를 대체하는 효과 뿐 아니라 태양열 연간 이용 효율 극대화에도 크게 기여 할 수 있다. 본 고에서는 국내 기술로 최초로 개발 실용화된 중온용 단일 진공관형 태양열 집열기와 1중 효용 흡수식 냉방기를 이용하여 실증연구를 계획하였다. 태양열 냉방 실증을 위하여 단일 진공관형 태양열 집열기 집열면적 200m2, 축열조(태양열, 급탕, 냉수), 10RT급 냉방기, 냉각탑, 보조 보일러, 원격 제어 및 모니터링 등이 계획 되었다. 실증시험 중간 결과 태양열 냉방시스템은 하절기 맑은 날 하루 동안 약 5 - 6시간 안정적으로 가동 되었으며, 앞으로 온수급탕, 난방 시험을 거쳐 시스템 성능 및 경제성 평가를 통하여 유용성, 안정성 및 신뢰성이 검증 될 계획이다.

Three methods for heat collection, which were the flat solar collector, two fan with radiator, and square pipe method, were studied to sue efficiently solar energy in the three different glasshouses for two years. The flat plate solar collector method was made use of the commercial solar collector with collection area of 24$m^2$, the method of two fans with radiators collected solar energy at the top of the glasshouse. An thermal storage tank was constructed underneath in teach glasshouses. When an area of 1,000$m^2$ was heated to the minimum temperature of 9$^{\circ}C$, the decrease rate of heating fuel for the flat plate solar collector, the fan attached radiator and the square pipe methods were 7%, 19% and 28% respectively. The flat plate solar collector method, which could be heated approximately 40-50$m^2$, was currently used by most of the farmer. Under the condition, the decrease rate of annual heating fuel was 14% which was not better for an economic annual heating fuel. If the fan with radiator method was operated, the use of installation and maintenance were required. So, it could not be good economic efficiency of solar heating. The heating efficiency of the square pipe method was relatively better thant those of the flat plate solar collector or the fan attached radiator. Since the cost of materials and its installation of the use of square pipe method was lower than any other method. However, corrosion of the pipe, greater shade in the greenhouse and strength against the square pipe were problems that should be overcome in the square pipe method.

최근 급격한 경제성장과 고도 산업사회로의 전환에 따라 에너지 수요가 크게 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 석유, 가스 등 화석에너지의 소비량과 온실가스 배출량이 급격히 늘어나고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 화석에너지의 소비와 온실가스 배출을 저감시키기 위해 친환경적인 에너지를 이용하기 위한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 이와 같은 노력 중 하나가 바로 태양열에너지를 이용하는 방법이다. 태양열에너지는 자원 고갈의 우려가 없고, 에너지의 이용 과정에서 공해 물질을 배출하지 않아 대체 에너지원으로 각광을 받고 있다. 하지만 에너지 밀도가 낮고 에너지의 공급이 기상조건에 따라 큰 영향을 받으므로 태양열에너지를 이용하기 위해서는 효율적인 집열시스템이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우수한 열적특성을 가진 탄소나노유체를 히트파이프 작동유체에 적용하여, 태양열 집열기의 효율을 향상시키기 위해 탄소나노유체의 열전도도 및 점도특성을 비교분석하였다. 나노유체는 에탄올에 산화 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(Oxidized Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes, OMWCNTs)를 혼합하고, 초음파 분산하여 제조하였다. 에탄올-산화탄소나노유체의 열전도도와 점도는 저온($10^{\circ}C$), 상온($25^{\circ}C$), 고온($70^{\circ}C$)에서 측정하여 비교분석하였으며, 열전도도는 전기 전도성 유체의 비정상 열선법(Transient Hot-wire Method)을 이용하여 측정하였고, 점도는 회전형 디지털 점도계를 이용하였다. 실험 결과 0.1 vol%의 에탄올-산화탄소나노유체의 열전도도는 기본 유체 대비 33.72%($10^{\circ}C$), 33.14%($25^{\circ}C$), 32.26%($70^{\circ}C$)가 향상되었으며, 점도 또한 기본유체보다 크게 증가하지 않아 히트파이프 작동유체로서 우수한 효과를 나타낼 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 태양열 집열기 히트파이프의 효율 향상을 위한 기초자료로써 유용한 정보를 제공할 것이라 판단된다.

The flat-plate and tubular soar collectors were designed and constructed for drying the rough rice, and the performance of the collectors and drying effect were investigated when rough rice was packed in grain bin connected to collectors. Average-monthly radiation on a horizontal surface based on bright sunshine in Daejeon area during 1978 was the highest as $16,814\;KJ/m^2{\cdot}day$ in May and the lowest as $4,254\;KJ/m^2{\cdot}day$ in December, and significane was not recognized between the calculated and recorded values. The thermal effciency of collectors were increased as radiation increased during drying period and the average thermal effciency of flat-plate and tubular collectors in 11 to 12 o'clock a.m were 28.12 and 16.75%, respectively. The average inlet temperature of grain bin at 12 o'clock was shown as 20.02 at control 40.5 at grain bin connected to tubular collector and $55.1^{\circ}C$ at grain bin connected to flat-plate collector. In 25 cm rough rice depth in grain bin, tim taken for drying from initial moisture content at 27.4 to decrease upto 17.0% (14.5 % on wet basis) were 32 in control, 18 in grain bin connected to tubular collector and 11 hrs to flat-plate collector, and grain depth influenced drying rate remarkably. In the view point of drying characteristics, drying pattern showed initially falling-rate to constant-rate period finally.

The heating load using solar hot water is lower in summer than in the other seasons. This decreased heating load leads to the overheating solar collectors and related components. To prevent overheating of the solar collectors, air cooling and shading shields were used. On the other hand, it requires additional mechanical components, and reduces the system reliability. The geothermal heat dump system to release the high temperature heat (over $150^{\circ}C$) transferred from the heat pipe solar collectors was investigated in the present study. Research on the heat dump to cool the solar collector is rare. Therefore, the present study was carried out to collect possible data of a geothermal heat dump to cool the solar collector. A helical type geothermal heat exchanger was buried at a 1.2m depth. Experimentally and numerically, the geothermal heat dump was investigated in terms of the effects of parameters, such as the quantity of solar radiation, aperture area of the collector and the mass flow rate. A pipe length of 50m on the geothermal heat exchanger was suitable with a 0.33 kg/s flow rate. The water reservoir was a possible co-operation solution linked to the geothermal heat exchanger.

Three plastic film solar dryers covered with different film layer were constructed by modifying farm vinyl house and studied their performance. The collection efficiency and temperature raising of type C which was covered with double layers of transparent PE and black PVC film was most efficient, followed after B covered with double layer of transparent PE film and type A covered with single layer transparent PE film. The inside temperature of type C was average $18^{\circ}C$ higher than ambient temperature and its collection efficiency showed 31.5% with air flow rate of $3.8m^3/min$. The solar energy collection efficiency of type C was increased in proportion to air flow rate up to 60.2% at $11.3m^3/min$. In demonstration drying test of red pepper in type C, drying capacity per unit area was 2.5 times higher than that of conventional solar drying on straw mat and drying time shortened to about half.
