In this study, in order to utilize the seawater as a heat source at Gangneung city near the East Sea in Korea, an annual heating performance of a screw heat pump was simulated. For a simulation, the maximum heating capacity of heat pump was assumed at 3.5 MW. An ambient temperature at Gangneung city was calculated from the TMY2 weather data, while the seawater temperature was calculated from the regression equation based on the measurement by the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute of Korea. The heating load was assumed linearly dependent on the ambient temperature, while the maximum heating load was assumed to appear when the ambient temperature is below $-2.4^{\circ}C$, which is the temperature of TAC 2.5% for heating at Gangneung city. A heat pump performance at full-load was calculated from the regression equation, which involves refrigerant's evaporating and condensing temperatures, based on a commercial screw compressor performance map. A heating supply temperature which determines refrigerant's condensing temperature was assumed linearly dependent on the heating load. A performance degradation due to the part-load operation of heat pump was also considered. Simulation results show that an annual heating coefficient of performance ($COP_H$) of a seawater-source screw heat pump is approximately 2.8 and that it is necessary to improve part-load performance to increase an annual performance of the heat pump.

The aim of this study is to understand the characteristics of exhausting particulate matters (PM) and to control emitted PM from meat cooking restaurants. We found that $PM_{2.5}$, $PM_{5.0}$ occupy 69.2% and 98.6% of total PM from pork cooking, respectively. Therefore, we can see that it is not easy to remove PM generated from a pork cooking process. The collection efficiencies of various control devices, which are a condensing scrubber, a cyclone, an impactor, an oil filter and an electrostatic precipitator (ESP), were measured and compared. ESP had the highest collection efficiency (88.6%) and condensing scrubber had the lowest one (68.0%). However, the system recovering property should be considered to choose a control device because PM from meat cooking process are extremely stickiness. Therefore, we can recommend that ESP following an impactor or a cyclone is the best combination to remove PM generated from meat cooking restaurants.

In this paper, cycle performance analysis of two-stage compression and one-stage expansion refrigeration system applied various refrigerants is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of the system. The operating parameters considered in this study include degree of superheating and subcooling, compressor efficiency, evaporation temperature, condensing temperature, mass flow rate ration into inter-cooler, effectiveness of internal heat exchanger. The main results were summarized as follows : The COP of two-stage compression and 1-stage expansion refrigeration system increases with the increasing subcooling, mass flow rate ration of inter-cooler, evaporation temperature, but decreases with the increasing condensing temperature and superheating degree. Therefore, subcooling degree, mass flow rate ratio of inter-cooler of two-stage compression and 1-stage expansion using substitute refrigerant have an effect on COP of this system. The COP of alternative refrigerants was higher than the COP of R22 in this study, although the COP of some mixed refrigerants were lower than COP of R22.

The Bubble Jet Loop Heat Pipe (BJLHP) is designed to operate in the horizontal orientation. The motion of the bubble generated by boiling working fluid on a heater surface in the evaporating section of the BJLHP helps the working fluid transfer heat to the condensing portion. In this study, we changed the position of the heater in the evaporating section from concentric to eccentric. The concentric heater is located at the center of the tube in the evaporating part, and the eccentric heater is located at the bottom of the inner surface of the same tube. We used R-134a as the working fluid, and the charging ratio was 50%vol. We measured the temperatures of the evaporating and condensing sections by changing the input electric power from 50 W to 200 W, measuring every 50 W. The results of the experiment show that the effective thermal conductivity of BJLHP using an eccentric heater is four times higher than the BJLHP obtained using a concentric heater. Additionally, we conducted a visualization experiment on the evaporating portion of BJLHP to determine why the effective thermal conductivity was higher. The working fluid was water, and we took pictures of the flow visualization for BJLHP. Nucleate boiling with the eccentric heater was more intense and generated more bubbles. Therefore, the eccentric heater was more saturated by the liquefied working fluid.

Residential buildings account for a significant portion of the total building-energy usage in Korea, and a variety of research studies on the domestic boiler have therefore been carried out; however, most of these studies examined the boiler itself, whereby the part-load ratio characteristics and the corresponding gas-energy consumption patterns were not analyzed. In this study, the part-load ratio and operating characteristics of a domestic gas boiler were analyzed within a residential building equipped with a radiant floor-heating system; in addition, the energy consumption between condensing and conventional boilers was comparatively analyzed. Our results show that significant portions of the total operating hours, heating load, and energy consumption are in the part-load ratio range of 0 through 40%, whereby the energy consumption was significantly affected by the boiler efficiency under low part-load conditions. These results indicate that the part-load operation of a boiler is an important factor in residential buildings; furthermore, replacing a conventional boiler with a condensing boiler can reduce annual gas-energy usage by more than 20%.

우리나라의 가정용 용도별 에너지 사용량의 68%를 난방과 온수가 차지하고 있다. 따라서 난방과 온수 생산의 대부분을 차지하는 보일러는 에너지 소비 절감을 위해 고효율화가 시급한 기기이다. 보일러의 고 효율화에는 응축 잠열을 회수하는 콘덴싱 보일러 기술이 있지만, 일반 보일러에 비해 가격이 높고 체적이 큰 단점을 가지고 있어 이를 개선하기 위한 연구가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 식각 기법을 이용한 응축 열전달 촉진 실험을 수행하였다. 열교환기와 동일 재질의 시편에 표면 형태를 구성한 후 식각을 통하여 표면 조도를 부과하고 열전달 특성을 측정한 결과, 최대 9.2%의 열전달 성능 향상을 확인하였다.

해양플랜트용 HVAC(Heating Ventilation and Air-Conditioning) 시스템의 컨덴싱 유닛(condensing unit)의 경우, DX(Direct Expansion) 코일보다는 온도 안정성이 뛰어난 칠러 시스템(chiller system)을 주로 사용하고 있다. 칠러시스템의 구성품 중 대형 냉매압축기와 전자식 팽창밸브 등은 대부분 수입되고 있다. 이에 칠러 시스템의 크기는 국내에서 제작되는 열교환기(증발기, 응축기)에 의해 좌우된다. 현재 갈수록 심화되고 있는 사용공간의 제한으로 인해 선주사 및 조선소에서는 장비 크기를 컴팩트하게 해줄 것을 메이커에 지속적으로 요구하고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 해양플랜트에서 만액식(flooded) 칠러 시스템의 증발기로 주로 사용되고 있는 쉘-튜브형 열교환기를 컴팩트한 플레이트-쉘 열교환기로 대체하기 위한 주요개발과정을 소개하고, 이와 함께 개발된 플레이트-쉘 열교환기를 실제 증발기로 적용한 만액식 칠러 시스템을 제작하여 그 성능을 실험적으로 평가하였으며 그 결과를 제공하고자 한다.

To get an insight into the operating characteristics of the passive residual heat removal system of molten salt reactors, a two-phase natural circulation test facility was constructed. The system consists of a boiling loop absorbing the heat from the drain tank, a condensing loop consuming the heat, and a steam drum. A steady-state experiment was carried out, in which the thimble temperature ranged from $450^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$ and the system pressure was controlled at levels below 150 kPa. When reaching a steady state, the system was operated under saturated conditions. Some important parameters, including heat power, system resistance, and water level in the steam drum and water tank were investigated. The experimental results showed that the natural circulation system is feasible in removing the decay heat, even though some fluctuations may occur in the operation. The uneven temperature distribution in the water tank may be inevitable because convection occurs on the outside of the condensing tube besides boiling with decreasing the decay power. The instabilities in the natural circulation loop are sensitive to heat flux and system resistance rather than the water level in the steam drum and water tank. RELAP5 code shows reasonable results compared with experimental data.

발전용 밸브 내부의 누설은 냉각 기능 상실 및 방사선물질 방출 동 안전계통의 성능 저하와 수많은 에너지 손실 등 발전소 운전에 막대한 손상 및 사고를 초래하게 된다. 본 논문은 신뢰성 높은 진단 방법 개발을 위하여 국내 원자력발전소 2차계통의 누설 발생 또는 내부 부품의 손상이 발생할 수 있는 밸브를 대상으로 현장시험 및 모의누설실험시의 적외선열화상 측정 실험을 수행함으로써 단일계측방식의 불확실성을 제거하고 향후 누설진단에 대한 확대 적용을 도모하고자 하였다. 발전소 현장시험 및 밸브 모의누설시험시의 밸브 누설 상태에 따른 적외선열화상 이미지 측정 실험을 통하여, 적외선열화상 측정 방법은 밸브 누설 상태의 과정을 신속하고 정밀하게 측정 가능하며 향후 많은 종류의 밸브 누설진단에 활용함으로써 누설에 따른 막대한 에너지 손실 및 사고 예방의 유용한 기법으로 확대 적용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.
