The horizontal earth-to-air heat exchanger (HEAHES) thermal performance is excellent on cooling and heating season in hot arid regions was reported. But the HEAHES thermal performance results is difficult to find on intermediate season. This paper was performed full scaled experiment to investigate HEAHES thermal performance on intermediate season (Oct. 10th ~ 12th Nov. 12th). When the air entering to HEAHES is the lowest $2.3^{\circ}C$, outlet air temperature from HEAHES is $15.95^{\circ}C$ through PVC pipe that buried length 60m and depth 3m. When the air entering to HEAHES is the highest $24.8^{\circ}C$, outlet air temperature from HEAHES is $22.05^{\circ}C$. During intermediate season, the HEAHES COP is 2.71 in daytime and 6.53 in evening.

Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is widely used as a construction material in road construction, concrete structures, embankments, etc. However, it has been reported that calcite (CaCO₃) precipitation from RCA can be a cause of clogging when used in drainage applications. An accelerated calcite precipitation (ACP) procedure has been devised to evaluate the long-term geochemical performance of RCA in subsurface drainage systems. While the ACP procedure was useful for the French Drain application, there remained opportunities for improvement. In this study, key factors that control the formation of calcite precipitation were quantitatively evaluated, and the results were used to improve the current prototype ACP method. A laboratory parametric study was carried out by investigating the effects of reaction temperature and time on the formation of calcite precipitation of RCA, with determining an optimum reaction temperature and time which maximizes calcite precipitation. The improved ACP procedure was then applied to RCA samples that were graded for Type I Underdrain application, to compare the calcite precipitation. Two key findings are (1) that calcite precipitation can be maximized with the optimum heating temperature (75℃) and time (17 hours), and (2) the potential for calcite precipitation from RCA is not as significant as for limestone. With the improved ACP procedure, the total amount of calcite precipitation from RCAs within the life cycle of a drain system can be determined when RCAs from different sources are used as pipe backfill materials in a drain system.

다공성 구조의 장석과 주택 시방기준으로 제작된 바닥 축열층 모르타르의 열적 특성과 소비전력을 비교하였다. 실험을 위해 온수관이 설치된 2개의 실대형 모형을 제작하였다. 자외선 열화상 온도와 온도센서를 이용하여 가열과 냉각과정에서 축열층의 온도변화를 모니터링하였다. 시험동의 축열층은 $20-30^{\circ}C$ 구간의 온도 범위의 가열조건에서 $2-3.5^{\circ}C$ 높은 온도를 보였고 목표 온도에 도달하는 시간이 단축되었다. 온수관에서 멀어질수록 $4-4.8^{\circ}C$ 이상의 차이를 보였고 이는 장석 기반의 모르타르 축열층이 열적 평형에 빨리 도달하는 것을 지시한다. 가열 온도 $30^{\circ}C$를 기준으로 산정한 소비전력은 2.2배 차이를 보였고 단계별 온도 상승에서 소비전력은 66% 절감되었다. 냉각에서 시험동의 표면온도는 지속해서 $2^{\circ}C$ 이상 높았고 축열로 인해 보일러의 재가동 시간이 연장되는 것을 고려하면 에너지 효율은 더 증가할 것이다.

300 m 이상의 장심도 지중열교환기는 도심지나 넓은 부지를 확보가기 어려운 지역에 지열냉난방 시스템을 경제적으로 설치하는데 유리하다. 그러나 실제 시공에서는 여러 가지 문제들로 인하여 보편적으로 시도되지 않았고, 일반적으로 100 ~ 200m 심도로 설치되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 일반적인 시추공 직경 150 mm에 U 파이프는 50A 규격으로 외경 50 mm의 300 m 심도로 지중열교환기를 설치하였다. 고밀도 PE관은 단위 길이당 비중이 $0.94{\sim}0.96g/cm^3$으로 지열공 내부에 채워진 지하수 영향으로 부력이 존재하여, 이를 개선하기 위해 4.6 kg 무게의 금속으로 제작된 하중밴드 10개조를 설치하여 부력의 영향을 감소시켰다. 지중열교환기의 길이 산정 및 성능평가를 위한 기초조사로서 지반조사 및 열응답실험이 실시되었다. 지반내 온도구배는 100 m 심도까지는 주변 지하수 이용에 의한 영향 등으로 $15^{\circ}C$ 정도의 분포를 보이며 그 하부는 $1.9^{\circ}C/100m$의 지온증온율을 나타내고 있다. 열응답실험은 기존에 설정된 표준 방식으로 48 시간 진행되었으며 평균 주입전력은 17.5 kW이며 평균 순환수 유량은 28.5 l/min, 그리고 평균 입출구 온도차는 $8.9^{\circ}C$로 나타났다. 측정된 지중열전도도는 3.0 W/mk이며, 공내열저항은 0.104 mk/W로 나타났다. Stepwise 평가에서 지중열전도도 변화는 초기 13시간을 제외한 이후에는 표준편차가 0.16으로 매우 안정된 값으로 수렴한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 공내열저항의 민감도를 분석한 결과 파이프의 구경과 그라우팅 물질의 열전도도가 증가함에 따라 그 값이 미미하게 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다.
