암모니아 흡수식 열펌프의 falling film type 흡수기에 대한 수학적 모델링 및 수치모사 연구를 수행하였다. 기존의 수학적 모델에 열역학적 물성을 온도의 함수로 적용하여 수치모사를 수행하였고 이로부터 얻은 결과를 실험결과와 비교함으로써 모델의 성능이 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 개발된 모델을 이용하여 냉각수의 유량과 온도가 흡수기내에서 일어나는 열 및 물질전달에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 수치모사 결과로부터 냉각수 온도가 낮을수록 유량이 증가할수록 열 및 물질전달 효율이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Optimal cooling operation algorithm was developed based on a simulation case of a single family house model equipped with renewable energy facility. EnergyPlus simulation results were used as virtual test data. The model contained three energy storage elements: thermal heat capacity of the living room, chilled water storage tank, and battery. Their charging and discharging schedules were optimized so that daily electricity bill became minimal. As an optimization tool, linear programming was considered because it was possible to obtain results in real time. For its adoption, EnergyPlus-based house model had to be linearly approximated. Results of this study revealed that dynamic cooling load of the living room could be approximated by a linear RC model. Scheduling based on the linear programming was then compared to that by a nonlinear optimization algorithm which was made using GenOpt developed by a national lab in USA. They showed quite similar performances. Therefore, linear programming can be a practical solution to optimal operation scheduling if linear dynamic models are tuned to simulate their real equivalents with reasonable accuracy.

Flow and noise analyses are conducted for examining a new design concept of impinging jet electronics cooling, and the analysis results are compared with conventional electronics cooling techniques. For the application of impinging jet electronics cooling method, the present study considers the air duct where air is supplied by axial fan and air flow from the duct is impinged vertically onto the electronic component heat source. Applying CFD simulation technique and fan noise model to the present cooling scheme, the cooling performance of the impinging jet as well as the operation condition and the noise characteristics of fan are investigated for various impinging jet nozzle conditions and fan models. Furthermore, the impinging jet electronics cooling analysis results are compared with the conventional parallel-flow cooling scheme to give the design concept and criteria of impinging jet cooling method.

In this paper, computer simulation of wind flow around a single cooling tower with louver support at the base in the KAZERUN power station in south part of IRAN is presented as a case study. ANSYS FLOTRAN, an unstructured finite element incompressible flow solver, is used for numerical investigation of wind induced pressure load on a single cooling tower. Since the effects of the wind ribs on external surface of the cooling tower shell which plays important role in formation of turbulent flow field, an innovative relation is introduced for modeling the effects of wind ribs on computation of wind pressure on cooling tower's shell. The introduced relation which follows the concept of equivalent sand roughness for the wall function is used in conjunction with two equations ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model. In this work, the effects of variation in the height/spacing ratio of external wind ribs are numerically investigated. Conclusions are made by comparison between computed pressure loads on external surface of cooling tower and the VGB (German guideline for cooling tower design) suggestions.

본 연구에서는 포그냉방시스템을 수치적으로 시뮬레이션하기 위한 CFD 모델을 개발하였으며, 포그냉방온실에서 측정된 데이터에 의해 개발된 모델의 유효성을 검증하였다. 또한 분무수온, 분무수량, 분무정지시간과 분무입자의 증발률이 포그냉방시스템의 성능에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 개발된 모델을 적용하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과에 의하면, 각 측점에서 실측치와 예측치의 온도차가 무차광조건에서는 $0.1~1.4^{\circ}C$, 차광조건에서는 $0.2~2.3^{\circ}C$였으며, 상대습도차는 무차광조건에서는 0.3~6.0%, 차광조건에서는 0.7~10.6%였다. 예측치가 실측치와 비교적 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타나 개발된 모델이 포그냉방시스템의 냉방효과를 예측할수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 포그냉방시스템 성능은 분무수량, 분무정지시간과 분무입자의 증발률의 영향을 많이 받지만 분무수온의 영향은 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

Investigation of leading edge impingement cooling for first stage rotor blades in an aero-engine turbine, its effect on rotor temperature and trailing edge wake loss have been undertaken in this study. The rotor is modeled with the nozzle for attaining a more accurate simulation. The rotor blade is hollowed in order for the coolant to move inside. Also, plenum with the 15 jet nozzles are placed in it. The plenum is fed by compressed fresh air at the rotor hub. Engine operational and real condition is exerted as boundary condition. Rotor is inspected in two states: in existence of cooling technique and non-cooling state. Three-dimensional compressible and steady solutions of RANS equations with SST K-ω turbulent model has been performed for this numerical simulation. The results show that leading edge is one of the most critical regions because of stagnation formation in those areas. Another high temperature region is rotor blade tip for existence of tip leakage in this area and jet impingement cooling can effectively cover these regions. The rotation impact of the jet velocity from hub to tip caused a tendency in coolant streamlines to move toward the rotor blade tip. In addition, by discharging used coolant air from the trailing edge and ejecting it to the turbines main flow by means of the slot in trailing edge, which could reduce the trailing edge wake loss and a total decrease in the blade cooling loss penalty.

Cooling by the flow of water through an embedded cooling pipe has become a common and effective artificial thermal control measure for massive concrete structures. However, an extreme thermal gradient induces significant thermal stress, resulting in thermal cracking. Using a mesoscopic finite-element (FE) mesh, three-phase composites of concrete namely aggregate, mortar matrix and interfacial transition zone (ITZ) are modeled. An equivalent probabilistic model is presented for failure study of concrete by assuming that the material properties conform to the Weibull distribution law. Meanwhile, the correlation coefficient introduced by the statistical method is incorporated into the Weibull distribution formula. Subsequently, a series of numerical analyses are used for investigating the influence of the correlation coefficient on tensile strength and the failure process of concrete based on the equivalent probabilistic model. Finally, as an engineering application, damage and failure behavior of concrete cracks induced by a water-cooling pipe are analyzed in-depth by the presented model. Results show that the random distribution of concrete mechanical parameters and the temperature gradient near water-cooling pipe have a significant influence on the pattern and failure progress of temperature-induced micro-cracking in concrete.

Fuel cell systems for medium duty truck require high power demands under driving. Since high power demands results in significant heat generation, thermal management is crucial for the performance and durability of medium duty truck. Therefore, various configurations of dual stacks with cooling systems are investigated to understand appropriate thermal management conditions. The simulation model consists of a dynamic fuel cell stack model, a cooling system model equipped with a controller, and the mounted controller applies a feedback controller to control the operating temperature. Also, In order to minimize parasitic power, the comparison of the cooling systems involved in the arrangement was divided into three case. As a result, this study compares the reaction of fuel cells to the placement of the cooling system under a variety of load conditions to find the best placement method.

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the potential of radiant cooling systems using Ondol as an alternative cooling system in residential buildings. For this purpose, computer simulation and model experiments have been performed for the system performance analysis regarding comfort, floor surface condensation, and supply water temperature. The results of this study is the following: In radiant floor cooling system, room air temperatures were maintained within the set temperature range of $\pm$1$^{\circ}C$ without any discomfort condition. And taking into account only the condensation occurrence, it was possible to achieve radiant floor cooling for a period of about 77% of the total cooling period in weather condition of Seoul. The minimum supply water temperature is about 15$^{\circ}C$, so renewable energy system such as ground heat exchange system can be used as an alternative in cooling source. Also, floor surface condensation can be prevented by integrating with the dehumidification system.
