Due to the electric power shortage in summer season and regulation of freon refrigerant, the application of gas absorption refrigeration and hot water systems are considerably increasing trend. But, this system consists of condenser, heat exchanger, supply pipe and radiator etc. which are easily corroded by acidity and dissolved oxygen and gases. In result, this system occurs scale attachment and corrosion damage like pitting and crevice corrosion. In this study, electrochemical polarization test of heat exchanger tubing material (copper, aluminium brass, 30% cupronickel(30% Cu-Ni)) was carried out in 60% lithium bromide solution at $95^{\circ}C$. As a result of polarization test, corrosion behavior by impressed potential and local corrosion. such as galvanic corrosion, pitting corrosion behavior, of tubing materials was investigated. The main results obtained are as follows: (1) The effect of pitting and crevice corrosion control of 30% cupronickel in 60% LiBr solution at $95^{\circ}C$ is very excellent. (2) Dissimilar metal corrosion of 30% cupronickel coupling to aluminium bronze is the most sensitive. (3) Current density behavior of tube materials by impressed potential is high in order of copper > aluminium brass > 30% cupronickel.

The purpose of research is to understand the characteristics of refrigeration system having a liquid-vapor phase separator after expansion device and precooling heat exchanger. After expansion process of typical refrigerant of freezer, R134a, the cold vapor of the expanded refrigerant mixture is separated in the liquid-vapor separator and introduced in the precooling heat exchanger to enable the liquid refrigerant to be subcooled. The analysis results showed that the increasing rate of refrigeration capacity and COP can be 8.6% and 1.4%, each. The cause of these performance improvements is due to the difference of the slope of saturated vapor and saturated liquid lines in Mollier diagram of refrigerant.

In this study, the ground source heat pump was installed at a research center in Jeju Island to verify the performance of the system and to give an information for a economic feasibility. The performance test was conducted until the heat storage tank temperature reached at $5^{\circ}C$ from $50^{\circ}C$ in the cooling operation, and until the storage temperature goes up to $50^{\circ}C$ from $10^{\circ}C$ in the heating mode. As results, the system performance shows that $2.2{\sim}3.5$ for the cooling operation and $2.5{\sim}3.5$ for heating operation. It is found that the underground is good heat source for the heat pump with $3{\sim}10^{\circ}C$ variation range. The ground source heat pump could be connected one of air conditioning system without any problem in system performance. Based on the economic analysis, the initial cost for the ground source heat pump will be compensated after 4 years operation. If the system runs 20 years, approximately 300 million Won will be saved when the air conditioning system adapt the ground source heat pump based on Life Cycle Cost analysis.

In various industrial places such as power generation plants, petrochemical and unit factories, the demands of systems that produce hot water by utilizing wasted or surplus steam have been increased. Compact steam unit(CSU) is a system that can meet these demands and produce hot water by using surplus or wasted steam, and it is also one of the good solutions in view of energy reuse. The new CSU with a capacity of 1,600 kW was developed with a hybrid plate heat exchanger of which thermal performances are better than a conventional plate heat exchanger, an improved temperature control valve, a user-friendly control system, and other components in this study. The purpose of this study was to obtain performance data of the new CSU through various experiments and utilize them for the CSU commercialization. The experimental results show that heat balances between the hot side(steam) and the cold side(cold water) were within ${\pm}0.77%$, and the fluctuations of outlet temperature of the secondary side which are one of the most important evaluation factors in the CSU were $(0{\sim}0.3)^{\circ}C$.

The experiments were conducted without oil in a closed refrigerant loop which was driven by a magnetic gear pump. The main components of the refrigerant loop are a receiver, a variable-speed pump, a mass flow meter, a pre-heater and evaporator(test section). The test section was made of a horizontal stainless steel tube with the inner diameter of 4.57 mm, and length of 4 m. The experiments were conducted at mass flux of 200 to 700 kg/$m^2s$, saturation temperature of 0$^{circ}C$ to 20$^{circ}C$, and heat flux of 10 to 30 kW/$m^2$. The test results showed the evaporation heat transfer of $CO_2$ has great effect on more nucleate boiling than convective boiling. The evaporation heat transfer coefficients of $CO_2$ are highly dependent on the vapor quality, heat flux and saturation temperature. In comparison with test results and existing correlations, correlations failed to predict the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$, therefore, it is necessary to develop reliable and accurate predictions determining the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ in a horizontal tube.

The effect of tube diameter on heat transfer characteristics of absorber in absorption chiller/heater using LiBr solution as a working fluid has been investigated by experimental study to develop a high performance and compact absorber. A system Includes a tube absorber, a generator, solution distribution system and cooling water system was set up. The diameter of the heat exchanger tube inside absorber was changed from 15.88mm to 12.7mm and 9.52mm. The experimental results show that the heat transfer coefficient, Nusselt number and heat flux increase as solution flow rate and cooling water flow rate increase. The heat transfer performance increases as tube diameter decreases. Among three different tube diameters, the smallest tube diameter 9.52mm has highest heat transfer performance. A comparison of the heat transfer coefficient obtained by the present study with those of previous experimental results showed good overall agreement.

In this paper, a calculation method for fin efficiency of continuous fin is introduced. The continuous fin of in-line and staggered arrangement was divided into many sectors and fin efficiencies of each sectors were calculated by assuming that each sectors be the circular fins. To get the converged fin efficiency which is averaged by the each areas, the number of sectors was increased. The results were compared with equivalnet method by varying the aspect ratios in both cases of in-line and staggered tube arrangement and showed some differences of fin efficiencies.

The evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$(R-744) in a horizontal tube was investigated experimentally. The main components or the refrigerant loop are a receiver, a variable-speed pump, a mass flow meter, a pre-heater and evaporator(test section). The test section consists of a smooth, horizontal stainless steel tube of inner diameter of 4.57 mm. The experiments were conducted at mass flux of 200 to $500\;kg/m^2s$, saturation temperature of -5 to $5^{\circ}C$, and heat flux of 10 to $40\;kW/m^2$. The test results showed the heat transfer of $CO_2$ has a greater effect on nucleate boiling more than convective boiling. Mass flux of $CO_2$ does not effect nucleate boiling too much. In comparison with test results and existing correlations, the best fit of the present experimental data is obtained with the correlation of Jung et al. But existing correlations failed to predict the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$, therefore, it is necessary to develope reliable and accurate predictions determining the evaporation heat transfer coefficient of $CO_2$ in a horizontal tube.
