The goal of this study is to measure and compare the performance of solar heat pump for room and hot water heating. To accomplish the goal, solar heat pump with alumium roll bond type evaporator and indoor heat exchanger(condenser) was built and fully instrumented with thermocouples and pressure transducers etc. The test results showed that the COP(coefficient of performance) of HFC-134a($CF_3CH_2F$) were higher than those of CFC-12($CF_2Cl_2$). One "stratospherically safe" new refrigerant is 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane(HFC-134a), which is thermodynamically similar to CFC-12 and considered to be a potential direct replacement for CFC-12 in air-conditioning and refrigeration applications. The solar heat pump system for room heating was designed to show the best efficiency that the room temperature make $18{\sim}20^{\circ}C$ and $23{\sim}25^{\circ}C$ in the southern part of South Korea during November, December, and January.

Cycle test for developed phase change material (PCM) is necessary in order to assess the variation of latent heat, which decreases with time by deterioration. T-history method and measurement using heat-flux meter are appropriate for the cycle test in a tube filled with PCM because they do not need an extraction of sample in measuring heat of fusion. In the present study, these methods were applied to a PCM having a melting point below a room temperature, different to the past studies for PCMs melting above a room temperature. As a result of experiment using pure water as specimen, we can obtained rea-sonable values for heat of fusion.

Korean traditional Ondol with the sensible heat storage medium has been for a long time used as residential heating system, in these days the concrete Ondol without the heat storage medium was realized as the heating system in the private houses and the apartments. This floor heating system is good for our health. But the concrete Ondol is not desirable for the energy saving and for the maintenance of comfortable room temperature because the heat storage medium is not employed in the concrete Ondol. And as the hot water circulating pipes ate buried under the the concrete floor, the concrete Ondol system has some kind of problems to be improved. Therefore the new type of Ondol system was developed in this study. And the new Ondol was consisted of latent heat storage material as heat storage medium with a great heat capacity and bioceramics as medium to maintain comfortable room temperature. In this study, the heat transfer characteristics of latent heat storage-bioceramic Ondol was analyzed theoretically.

Cycle test for developed phase change material (PCM) is necessary in order to analyze the variation of latent heat, which decreases with time by deterioration. 7-history method and measurement using heat flux meter are appropriate for the cycle test in a tube filled with PCM because they do not need an extraction of sample in measuring the heat of fusion. In the present study, these methods were applied to a PCM having a melting point below a room temperature, different from the past studies for PCMs melting above a room temperature. As a result of experiment using pure water as specimen, we can obtain reason-able values for heat of fusion by both methods.

This study intends to the adequacy inspection of the room temperature variation rate that is available in the building heat performance evaluation index, so we performed the sensitivity analysis about the room temperature variation rate and the energy consumption in the room. For these purpose, we supposed the models which are composed of the various window area, insulation thickness and ventilation rate. Then we analyzed the simulation using the ESP-r and Seoul weather data. In this research, the pattern of the increasing & decreasing rate of annual load according to the change of the various design factors is similar to the pattern of increasing & decreasing rate of not the K-values but the room temperature variation rate. Also we derive the optimum value of the various design factors and the room temperature variation rate in this analysis model. Further study is to be required the development of convenient tool to use in the real design.

This paper deals with the dielectric properties dielectric breakdown strength and mechanical tensile properties according to heat - treatment condition of polyurethane resin. This resin is heat - treated over a range of temperature from $50^{\circ}C$ to $150^{\circ}C$. It is shown that the dielectric dissipation factor decreases with increase of heat - treatment temperature of the sample exept for the sample heat - treated at $150^{\circ}C$. The maximum dielectric breakdown strength is appeared for the sample heat - treated for 10 hours at $100^{\circ}C$, after curing for 24 hours at room temperature. The optimal heat - treatment condition in the view point of the electrical and mechanical properties is appeared for the sample heat - treated for 10 hours at $100^{\circ}C$, after curing for 24 hours at room temperature.

In this paper, optimal control strategy of the air-conditioning system with slab thermal storage was investigated based on the optimal control theory. An optimal heat output to the plenum chamber and the air-conditioned room was determined based on two kinds of criterion functions. The first one requires small deviation in room air temperature from a set-point value and low energy consumption. It is shown that the optimized control is to store heat through the whole storage time and to increase storage rate gradually with time. As the second case, a criterion that both a deviation of operative temperature from a set-point temperature and the energy consumption should be minimized was adopted. The room air temperature was a little high and the cooling load during storage time was reduced, compared with the results when a criterion function considering only the room air temperature is used.

An optimal control of an air-conditioning system with slab thermal storage is investigated by making use of the Maximum Principle. An optimal heat input to a plenum chamber and an air-conditioned room is determined by minimizing a criterion function which is given as integral sum of two terms. The first term is the square of the deviation in the room air temperature from the set-point value, and the second is the absolute value of the heat input. The result indicates that it tries to keep a room air temperature in set-point value by heating as much as possible at the time of a setup of a room air temperature or just before that, in order to avoid a heat loss arising at the time of the non-air conditioning. The result is compared with that of the case when the square of the heat input is used as a criterion.

In fire test, accurate heat release rate measurements provide important information to define the fire safety characteristics of products. The calculation of heat release rate depends on the errors of measuring parameters in experimental set-up. In this study, the uncertainty factors of heat release rate in the room corner test facility, which is installed at Korea Railroad Research Institute, were analyzed. Through the fire testings for the KTX interior materials, the uncertainties of heat release rate were calculated. Results showed that uncertainty was high in the initial stage of fire test and gradually decreased with the growth of fire. The oxygen concentration was a major factor contributing to the combined relative standard uncertainty.

In order to improve the performance of a 2 room heat pump with a constant speed compressor, the optimum refrigeration circuit of the heat pump with different cooling and heating capacities is developed by applying capillary tubes. The refrigeration circuit is composed of four parts; a heating circuit, a cooling circuit, a by-pass circuit and a balance circuit. The performance of the 2 room heat pump are investigated from a rating experiment and a reliability experiment, using the calorimeter. Results of the rating experiment show that the capacity of heat pump is about $93\%$ of the design value. In particular, the capacity of the cooling single operation is about $13\%$ higher than the design value, and the capacity of the heating multi operation is about $5\%$ higher than the design value. From the reliability experi-ment, it is found that the lowest driving voltage of the compressor is about $75\%$ of the rating voltage. Also the compressor is reoperated normally under the flood back and the over load.
