This paper describes an analysis on exergy efficiency of R744 OTEC power system to optimize the design for the operating parameters of this system. The operating parameters considered in this study include subcooling and superheating degree, evaporation and condensation temperature, and turbine and pump efficiency, respectively. The main results are summarized as follows : As the evaporation temperature, superheating degree, and turbine and pump efficiency of R744 OTEC power system increases, the exergy efficiency of this system increases, respectively. But condensation temperature and subcooling degree of R744 OTEC power system increases, the exergy efficiency of this system decreases, respectively. The effect of evaporation temperature and pump efficiency on R744 OTEC power system is the largest and the lowest among operation parameters, respectively. Therefore, the refrigerant temperature in the evaporator must be closely to the surface seawater temperature to enhance the exergy efficiency of R744 OTEC power system.

최근 이상기후로 집중호우와 강우패턴이 변화하고 있다. 하지만 변화하는 환경을 고려하지 않은 내배수시설 설계로 내수 침수 피해가 증가하여 인명 및 재산 피해가 급증하고 있다. 이에 도시지역의 내수침수에 대한 대책으로 재내지의 초과 우수를 하천으로 강제 배수시키기 위한 빗물펌프장의 역할이 점점 중요해지고 있다. 도심지역의 집중호우에 대응하기 위해서는 빗물펌프장의 목표 배수량을 실제 배수할 수 있는지에 대한 여부가 도시지역의 내수침수를 효율적으로 방어하는데 있어 중요한 요소가 될 것이다. 하지만 현재 빗물펌프장의 설계 시 펌프 흡입부 내 흐름특성을 고려하지 못하고 있어 펌프의 효율에 대한 불확실성이 큰 것이 사실이다. 따라서 펌프 가동 시 흡입부 주변의 흐름특성에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 기존 펌프 흡입부의 실험적 연구에서는 색소를 이용한 vortex의 생성 위치 및 경향을 정성적으로 파악하거나 ADV등의 유속계를 이용하여 흡입부 주변의 흐름특성을 지점별로 분석하는 연구들이 수행되었다. 하지만 빗물펌프장의 펌프 흡입부 주변의 흐름은 펌프 가동에 따라 매우 복잡한 와류가 발생하기 때문에 이를 방지하기 위해서는 정량적인 유속장 분석이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 비접촉식 유속 측정이 가능하고 유속장 측정이 가능하다는 장점을 갖고 있는 입자영상유속계(PIV: Particle Image Velocimetry)를 이용하여 펌프 흡입부 주변의 흐름특성을 분석하였다. 펌프 흡입부의 흐름특성을 분석한 결과 흡입관 내 유속분포의 편중 현상에 접근유속의 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한 흡입유속에 비해 접근유속이 빠른 경우 흡입관 내 유속분포는 상류측에서 횡방향 와류가 발생하여 흡입에 방해가 되는 것을 확인하였고, 하류측으로는 흡입 방향으로 유속이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 향후 펌프 흡입관내 상류측부분의 와류를 감소시키기 위한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

We aimed to develop a non-clogging submersible slurry pump with two blades to replace the conventional vortex pump. To do this, we simulated the effect of parameters such as the blade angle $\beta$ and the blade-length angle $\alpha$ on pump efficiency. We used the commercial codes ANSYS CFX and BladeGen. The results showed that the best blade shape was obtained for $\beta$ = $30^{\circ}$ and that the pump efficiency was proportional to $\alpha$ in the simulated range.

This study was performed to develop a high efficiency submersible axial pump for concentration wastewater treatment. To do this, we simulated the effect of some parameters such as the axial twist angle of a blade(${\beta}$), the radial twist angle of a blade(${\alpha}$) and the length of a blade (l) on pump efficiency using commercial code, ANSYS CFX and BladeGen. The results showed that the axial twist angle of a blade(${\beta}$) was the most sensible parameter on the pump efficiency. And the pump efficiency had a maximum at ${\beta}=20^{\circ}$, ${\alpha}=110^{\circ}$ and l=240 mm.

The improvement of energy recovery is mandatory to decrease consumption of fossil fuels and to minimize negative impacts on the environment which originates from large cooling and heating demand. The absorption heat pump technology has a large potential for energy saving in this respect. Absorption heat pump is a means to upgrade waste heat without addition of extra thermal energy. In this study, resorption heat pump for energy recovery has been investigated using methanol-glycerine. The simulated calculation of theoretical thermal efficiency was performed based on the thermodynamic properties of the working fluid over various operating conditions. The thermal efficiency of higher than 0.4 was obtained by raising industrial waste heat, $70{\sim}80^{\circ}C$, by $40^{\circ}C$ in this system.

펌프는 유체를 이송하는 설비로써 모든 산업설비와 건물에 까지 광범위하게 이용되고 있으며 설계, 제작, 설치시 과대한 여유물을 적용시켜 운용하고 있어 효율적인 운전이 이루어지지 못하고 있는 사례가 많으나 단순 공급, 이송만 하면 된다는 사고로 운전하고 있어 펌프의 합리적 운전에 필요한 기술 및 점검 사항을 제시 하고자 한다.

The effects of an impeller and floating ring seals on the performance of centrifugal pumps are investigated on the basis of their test results using water. The pumps are single-staged centrifugal pumps developed for 30-ton- and 75-ton-class liquid rocket engines, and are components of a turbopump that supplies propellants (liquid oxidizer and kerosene) to the combustion chamber. The exit width of the impellers and the numbers and exit angles of the impeller blades are found to have influences on the pump heads. In addition, the pumps have different efficiencies according to the gaps between the floating ring seals and the impellers, whereas the pump size seems to have less effect on the efficiency.

Canned type household circulating pump in the country almost depends on the act of imports, however it has disadvantage of low efficiency because an airgap of between rotor and stator is large and when the boiler is not used in a period of summer, a can and a rotor become adhered each other. Accordingly the pump is impossible to drive the initial state, and a lifetime of the pump gets shortening. To overcome these defects a electronic circulating pump by axial air-gap type brushless motor which is completely depart from the general idea for the conventional pump is developed. This paper is verified through experiments that the developed pump has good performance for reduction of size and noise, reo trenchment of cost, and improvement of efficiency in comparison with the conventional pump.

Gear pump has a simple structure high reliability, easy operation and maintenance, widely used as a source of hydraulic system of hydraulic. In general, the gear pump was designed using variety of variables, the variables through the analysis of the mass flow rate and efficiency. In this paper, three-dimensional flow of the gear pump, in order to produce the optimal design of product, analysis was performed by using commercial software ANSYS v15.0 CFX. And then, combination of design parameters selected by ANSYS was carried out to confirm the simulation result. The efficiency and mass flow rate of the gear pump were studied by varying its rotational speed and the clearance between the gear tip and the housing. In the simulation results, as the rotational speed were increased, the average mass flow rate and efficiency increased. Furthermore, as the clearance between the gear tip and the housing was increased, the average mass flow rate and efficiency decreased.
