The heat exchange part in a modern multi-type air-conditioning system employs multiple-pass heat exchangers. The heat-transfer performance of an each pass in such an exchanger depends strongly on the length of the two-phase region and the mass flow of the refrigerant. The total length and diameters of the pipes, the exit conditions, and the arrangement of each pass as well as the geometrical shape of the distributor at the branching sections are considered to be major factors affecting the heat-transfer performance. The refrigerant commonly used in these systems is HCFC-22. The two objectives of this paper are to investigate the characteristics of the refrigerant flow rate and the superheat in the evaporator of a multi-type air-conditioning system for a single or simultaneous operating conditions and to control the superheat and the refrigerant flow rate of the evaporator.

In this study, the characteristics of heating performance of a high-performance air-cooled heat pump with vapor-injection(VI) cycle using re-heater was investigated experimentally. Devices used in the experiment is consist of a VI compressor, condenser, oil separator, refrigerant (economizer outlet refrigerant) re-heater, economizer, evaporator. And R410A was used as a working fluid. The experiment was conducted with two cycles(cycles A and B) for investigating heating performance. In case of cycle B, heat exchange was conducted by re-heater between outlet refrigerant of compressor and suction refrigerant of the VI system(Fig.1, re-heater). But the re-heater was not used in case of cycle A. As a result of this experiment, discharge temperature of refrigerator in compressor was shown higher value, when the cycle B was conducted, because of the heat exchange between suction refrigerant of VI cycle and outlet refrigerant of compressor in the re-heater than cycle A that was not use re-heater. it means that liquid hammer and the decrement of heating performance can be decreased by using re-heater. Also, Heating coefficient of performance(COPh) was shown about 2.98 in Cycle B which was 4% higher than Cycle A and from these results, It was confirmed that the improvement of the heating performance of heat pump with VI cycle can be achieved by applying re-heater.

The objective of this study is to investigate the influence on the heating performance for a water-to-water 10RT ground source heat pump by using the water switching and refrigerant switching method. The test of water-to-water ground source heat pump was measured by varying the compressor speed, load side inlet temperature, and ground heat source side temperature. The heating capacity and COP of the heat pump increased with increasing ground heat source temperature. As a result, compared to a refrigerant switching method, the water switching method with counter flow improves the heating capacity and COP by approximately 5% in average, respectively.

This paper presents an experimental study on a new potential geothermal energy source obtained from tunnel structures. An "energy textile", which is a textile-type ground heat exchanger, was fabricated between a shotcrete layer and a guided drainage geotextile in the tunnel lining system. To examine the long-term thermal behavior of the energy textile, the difference in temperatures of the inlet and outlet fluid circulating through the heat exchange pipe within the energy textile was monitored using a constant-temperature water bath. Daily heat exchange rate of the energy textile during cooling operation was estimated from the measured temperatures of the inlet and outlet fluid through the energy textile. The air and ground temperature was also continuously monitored. The operation of the energy textile as a ground heat exchanger was simulated using a 3D numerical CFD model (Fluent). The thermal conductivity of shotcrete and concrete lining components and temperature variation of air in the tunnel were incorporated in the model. The numerical analysis shows a good agreement with the long-term monitoring result.

A gas-fired 4RT absorption heat pump was designed as an air-conditioner for domestic use during the summer. The absorption heat pump is air-cooled. double-effect, $LiBr-H_{2}O$ system with parallel flow type. The performance of the absorption heat pump in the cooling mode of operation was investigated through cycle modeling and simulation to obtain the system characteristics with parameter changes. System parameters considered in this analysis were the inlet temperature of cooling air to the absorber, the working solution concentrations, the ratio of the amount of the weak solution from the absorber, and the LTD's of each heat exchange component. The optimum designs and operating conditions were determined based on the operating constraints and the coefficient of performance.

The catalytic heat exchanger was designed which employs the regenerative preheating system of combustion air. The characteristics of the catalytic heat exchanger have been experimentally studied at the various operating parameters. The results showed that the mixture velocity did not affect significantly the performance of catalytic combustor whereas the preheating temperature of combustion air affected significantly the conversion rate. The complete conversion was achieved in the catalyzed honeycomb at a preheating temperature of $370-390^{\circ}C$, a mixture velocity of 0.53 $^{\sim}$ 0.75 m/s and an equivalence ratio of 0.19 $^{\sim}$ 0.27. The heat exchange efficiency of the catalytic heat exchanger appeared to be about 75 % when the air of room temperature was used as a working fluid. The results showed that both the heat balance of the system and the mixture conditions determine its stable catalytic combustion.

This dissertation identifies and investigates the possible control modes of hybrid ventilation system in applying to general apartments. It evaluates range of hybrid ventilation control modes in terms of indoor air quality, thermal comfort, and energy consumption in a living room and a kitchen of the $1000m^2$ apartment. The TRNSYS simulation program was used for evaluating the following four ventilation types : A ventilation mode relying on only infiltration for supplying air, A natural ventilation mode considering with weather condition, A hybrid ventilation (natural + mechanical ventilation) mode allowing minimum ventilation with no heat exchange, and a hybrid ventilation mode with heat exchange. This study shows the following results. As temperature being controlled by heating cooling equipments, there is without significant difference in thermal performance among ventilation types. Regarding Indoor Air quality, Indoor air contamination level of the hybrid ventilation case consistently keep the lower levels. The hybrid ventilation modes consume more energy by a 49% as compared to the A ventilation mode relying on only infiltration for supplying air. It is caused by the continuous ventilation for keeping good indoor air quality; the increase of energy consumption can be attributable to the increase of the heating energy. Therefore, the heat exchange between indoor and outdoor air is required during heating season in severe weather conditions. During the cooling seasons, Introducing natural ventilation can achieve energy saving by 40 ~ 45%. Thus, it can be an effective strategies for energy saving. Based on these results, a hybrid ventilation system can be suggested as an effective ventilation strategy for archiving high level of indoor air quality, thermal comfort, and energy consumption.

MRE-1 dual thruster module(DTM) which will be installed to the present under development KOMPSAT(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) can provide reliable and cost-effective means of propulsive control for attitude and maneuvering control system. Thruster heat shield, one of the main components of DTM, is designed to intercept the radiative heat exchange between thruster and satellite during firing. The inside diameter of the current configuration will be decreased a little compared with that of the previous one due to manufacturing method change. Therefore, the possibility of interference between thruster and heat shield due to configuration change is investigated through structural analysis and their results are described in this paper.

In this study the reactor design procedure and method of solid-solid-gas chemical heat pump system using STELF technology were investigated. For manufacturing IMPEX block which is the kernel of reactor, proper salt pair should be selected, and equilibrium temperature drop and COP should be examined for selected salt pair. Moreover, apparent density, residual porosity, and graphite ratio should be calculated to give minimum block volume and mass, and maximum energy density without causing heat and mass transfer problems. Since heat exchange area can be changed with operating condition, reactor diameter, length, and stainless steel thickness should be decided for desired specifications. These procedure and method were applied to the case study of 6kW cold production and 8 hours storage capacity reactor.

The superconducting winding in rotor of a superconducting generator should be kept at extremely low temperature of 4-5 K to maintain the superconducting state. For this purpose the liquefied helium is used for the coolant and it is very important to analyze and design a cooling system making effective use of the coolant. In this paper, the typical heat exchanger of a superconducting generator with the flow passage is analyzed with regard to the thermal equilibrium. An experimental constant relevant to the flow condition in the flow passage is determined with heat exchange experiments in cryostat. Also a new heat exchanger with porous material is proposed and designed. Results of the numerical analysis for the temperature distributions for the torque tube and the coolant are reported and the efficiency of the heat exchanger is discussed from the viewpoint of amounts of coolant needed.
