This paper presents the heating performance analysis results of a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system using hybrid ground heat exchanger (HGHE). In this paper, the HGHE refers to the ground heat exchanger (GHE) using both a surface water heat exchanger (SWHE) and a vertical GHE. In order to evaluate the system performance, we installed monitoring sensors for measuring temperatures and power consumption, and then measured operation data with 4 different load burdened ratios of the HGHE. During the entire measurement period, the average heating capacity of the heat pump was 37.3 kW. In addition, the compressor of the heat pump consumed 9.4 kW of power, while the circulating pump of the HGHE used 6.7 kW of power. Therefore, the average heating coefficient of performance (COP) for the heat pump unit was 4.0, while the system including the circulating pump was 2.7. Finally, the parallel use of SWHE and VGHE was beneficial to the system performance; however, further researches are needed to optimize the design data for various load ratios of the HGHE.

This paper presents the cooling performance analysis results of a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system using hybrid ground heat exchanger (HGHE). In this paper, the HGHE refers to the ground heat exchanger (GHE) using both a vertical GHE and a surface water heat exchanger (SWHE). In order to evaluate the system performance, we installed monitoring sensors for measuring temperatures and power consumption, and then measured operation data with 4 different load burdened ratios of the hybrid GHE, Mode 1~Mode 4. The measurement results show that the system with HGHE mainly operates in Mode 1 and Mode 2 over the entire measurement period. The average cooling coefficient of performance (COP) for heat pump unit was 5.18, while the system was 2.79. In steady state, the heat pump COP was slightly decreased with an increase of entering source temperature. In addition, the parallel use of SWHE and VGHE was beneficial to the system performance; however, further research are needed to optimize the design data for various load ratios of the HGHE.

This paper is to provide analysis model that can be used to investigate the improvement in energy efficiency for cooling tower by using fresh air. Numerical analysis of Air-cooled heat exchanger for single-phase flow with variations of outdoor air temperature has been performed. A complete set of correlations of the heat transfer in both refrigerant and air sides was employed for predicting the heat transfer rate. The numerical results derived from the correlations were verified with experimental results. The energy consumption for a hybrid cooling tower has been compared for variation of a outdoor air temperature. The results showed that the hybrid cooling tower in low outdoor temperature offers a significant improvement in energy efficiency. The thermal analysis aids significantly in the solution of the design problem of hybrid cooling tower.

A fault detector was developed for heat exchangers of a hybrid heat pump (HP) for household. The proposed detector can be applied directly to raw operating data. It is to monitor a tracking error between a measured saturation temperature and its state observer. The observer was estimated from a state-space model simulating dynamics of a heat exchanger. The real hybrid HP was substituted with a dynamic simulator that implemented two-phased heat transfer and was validated by experimental data. And artificial fault data were generated using the simulator. Diagnosing the data showed the following. The residual calculated from the state observer error shows a relatively robust consistency with respect fouling level. The fault detector is practically useful because it detects a threshold fouling beyond which the performance starts to deteriorate significantly.

A hybrid heat pump is under development with the goal of utilizing 120% of primary energy resources. A plate heat exchanger is added between the compressor and air-cooled condenser of an ordinary heat pump to heat water. For successful operation of the heat pump, it is necessary to develop a control algorithm under various operating conditions. As a virtual test bed for that purpose, a dynamic model has been developed, to simulate its dynamic behavior. It was modeled in transient one-dimensions, with varying phase lengths considered. The model was implemented in Matlab and Simulink. Simulation results were effectively applied to design a control algorithm. They also provided physical insight into how to design and operate the system.

발전 플랜트, 석유 화학 플랜트, 단위 공장과 같은 다양한 산업 플랜트에서, 사용 후 스팀이나 잉여 스팀을 이용하여 온수나 급탕수를 만드는 시스템의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 스팀을 사용하여 온수를 제조하는 장치인 컴팩트 스팀 유닛(Compact Steam Unit, 이하 CSU)가 에너지 재활용 측면에서 좋은 대안이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고압 CSU 개발을 위한 기초 연구로서, CSU의 핵심 부품인 열교환기로 기존 판형 열교환기 대신 하이브리드 열교환기를 적용하여 위해, 실험적인 방법으로 하이브리드 열교환기의 전열 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 실험 결과, 온수측과 냉수측 사이의 열 평형은 ${\pm}5%$ 이내를 만족하였다. 레이놀즈 수가 증가함에 따라, 총괄 열전달 계수는 선형적으로 증가하였으며, 채널 유속 0.5 m/s 이상에서 총괄 열전달 계수는 개발 목표치인 $5,524W/m^2K$를 초과하였다. 레이놀즈 수가 증가함에 따라, 압력 강하 또한 증가하였으며, 단위 길이당 압력 강하값은 유속 0.5 m/s에서 50 kPa/m 이하였다.

The purpose of this study is to minimize the heat transfer surface area and cold fluid exit temperature of heat exchanger which applied to the refrigeration and air-conditioning system by utilizing the thermoelectric principle. Both uniform and non-uniform current distribution methods which applied to the analysis of the TE elements that incorporates heat exchanger were investigated. The non-uniform current distribution method had the better coefficient of performance and had the lower cold fluid exit temperature of the TE cooling system than the uniform current distribution method. It was found that if a TE cooling system incorporates a heat exchanger, a non-uniform current distribution should guarantee to the lowest cold fluid exit temperature. Also, the hybrid method (combination of the uniform and non-uniform current distribution method) is investigated to achieve the best results by combining the uniform and non-uniform current distributions. The results show that it can lower the cold fluid exit temperature and reduce the heat transfer surface area for the parallel flow arrangement if we apply the constant current in some entry region and the non-uniform increasing current in the direction of the cold fluid flow afterwards.

In this study, the experiment of thermal performance about closed-type hybrid cooling tower was conducted. A closed type cooling tower is a device similar to a general cooling tower, but with cooling tower replaced by a heat exchanger. The test section for this experiment has the process that the cooling water flows from top part of heat exchanger to bottom side in the inner side of tube, and spray water flows gravitational direction in the outer side of it. Air contacts of tube outer side are counterflow. The heat transfer pipe used in this experiment is a bare type tube having an outside diameter of 15.88mm. In this experiment, heat performances of the cooling tower are calculated such as overall heat transfer coefficient of between the process fluid and air, cooing capacity and pressure drop.
