Recently, building energy systems with solar collector and solar module have increased to improve energy problem, a heat island, a global warming and carbon dioxide emissions. In this study, value of solar radiation in areas was analyzed using TRNSYS simulation, and the optimum tilt and orientation angle for installing a photovoltaic module was examined. Average values of the weather data in the past twenty years in areas were used as input data. The results show that the tilt angle of a photovoltaic module for gaining the annual maximum solar radiation varies in different localities, and values of the annual solar radiation gained by using the variable photovoltaic module increased by 2.5 percent as compared with that gained by using the fixed photovoltaic module. When fixed photovoltaic module is installed, it should be examined the tilt and orientation angle for installing a photovoltaic module was examined.

Typical trouble patterns in solar thermal systems include working fluid leakage and freezing other than breakdown of pump. A fluid sensor for measuring electric resistance of fluid was developed and installed at the top of the collector piping in order to check the fault of solar system. Working fluid level in the pipe was determined by measuring electric resistance from a fluid sensor. On the base of this, it was confirmed that the fluid sensor diagnoses leakage of fluid. Electric resistance of propylene glycol aqueous solution was measured in the range of $0{\sim}70^{\circ}C$ and 0~40% of concentration. The response surface analysis was performed by using a central composite design, and the regression equation was derived from the relationship between electric resistance, temperature, and concentration. Through the experiment in a real solar system, we can estimate a concentration of working fluid when a pump is not operating and predict a possibility of freezing. Finally, an effective algorithm for trouble shooting was proposed to operate and maintain the solar system.

Heat pipes are considered to be promising candidates to enhance the heat transport capability of evacuated solar collectors in a wide temperature range. The working fluid must be selected properly considering various operating conditions of heat pipes for medium-high temperature range to avoid dry-out, local overheating, and frozen failure. The advantage of using binary mixture as heat pipe working fluid is that it can extend operating temperature range of the system as it can overcome operating temperature limit of a single fluid. Various operating temperature ranges were imposed in the experiments to simulate the actual operation of solar collectors using water-ethanol binary mixture. Tests were conducted for the coolant temperature range of -10$^{\circ}C$ to 120$^{\circ}C$, and mixing ratio range was from 0 to 1 based on mass fraction.

A horizontal mantle heat exchanger for a thermosyphon-driven SDHW(solar domestic hot water) was numerically simulated and fluid flow and heat transfer in the annulus of the mantle heat exchanger were quantitatively investigated. The Reynolds number, the location of the inlet, and the gap of the annulus were selected as the important design variables. The effects of the design variables on the heat transfer characteristics were thoroughly studied. Based on the numerical results, a correlation for predicting the heat transfer coefficient was suggested as the conclusion of this study.

A daylighting system includes three parts; light collector, light transformer and light distributor. A DBLP(Double blind light pipe) daylighting system consists of a double blind light collector, a mirror duct type light transformer and a prism film light pipe distributor. The double blinds for a light collection are used to track the sun's altitude and azimuth movements throughout the day. Behind both sets of blinds is the light transformer, which is based on a rectangular cone shaped light duct. The light transformer was designed to efficiently deliver the light into the light pipe within a 30 degree radial spread for the efficient light into the distributor. In this study, DBLP system efficiency was simulated, evaluated and optimized by Tracepro as a popular ray trace light design simulation program. The results indicated that DBLP system efficiency evaluated a maximum 22.4% in case of Spring/Fall season solar noon time. While the overall average system efficiency in the morning and afternoon is evaluated about 10%.

In this study, for increasing the efficiency of solar collector, the thermal conductivities and viscosities of the pure water and ethanol oxidized multi-walled carbon nanofluids were measured. Nanofluids were manufactured by ultra-sonic dispersing oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes(OMWCNTs) in the pure-water and ethanol at the rates of 0.0005 ~ 0.1 vol%. the Thermal conductivities and viscosities of manufactured nanofluids were measured at the low temperature($10^{\circ}C$), the room temperature($25^{\circ}C$) and the high temperature($70^{\circ}C$). For measuring thermal conductivity and viscosity, we used Transient Hot-wire Method and Rotational Digital Viscometer, respectively. As a result, under given temperature conditions, thermal conductivity of the 0.1 vol% pure-water nanofluid improved 7.98% ($10^{\circ}C$), 8.34% ($25^{\circ}C$), and 9.14% ($70^{\circ}C$), and its viscosity increased by 37.08% ($10^{\circ}C$), 33.96% ($25^{\circ}C$) and 21.64% ($70^{\circ}C$) than the base fluids. Thermal conductivity of the 0.1 vol% ethanol nanofluids improved 33.72% ($10^{\circ}C$), 33.14% ($25^{\circ}C$), and 32.36% ($70^{\circ}C$), and its viscosity increased by 37.93% ($10^{\circ}C$), 31.92% ($25^{\circ}C$) and 29.42% ($70^{\circ}C$) than the base fluids.

본 논문의 모의 실험에 사용한 자연순환식 급탕 시스템과 지금까지 발표된 것 과의 차이점은 다음과 같다. 집열기의 집열성능 계산에 Close의 모델은 시스템의 평 균 온도를 이용하였으며, Mertol의 모델은 집열기의 성능을 일정하게 하여 자연순환식 급탕 시스템의 성능을 계산하였다. 그리고, Young의 모델은 집열기 입구 및 출구 유 체의 평균 온도로 집열기의 집열 성능을 계산하였다. Shitzer, Ong의 연구에서 밝혀 진 바와 같이 집열기 집열판의 온도와 유체 온도는 서로 다르므로, 본 논문에서는 이 것들에서 오는 오차를 줄이기 위해 집열기 순환 유체의 평균 온도와 집열판의 온도를 해석적으로 구하여 집열기의 성능과 순환 유체의 성질 계산에 이용하였다.

Concentrated Solar Photovoltaic (CPV) is a promising alternative to conventional solar structures. These solar tracking structures need to be optimized to be competitive against other types of energy production. In particular, the selection of the structural parameters needs to be optimized with regards to the dynamic wind response. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the main structural parameters, as selected in the preliminary design phase, on the wind response and then on the weight of the steel support structure. A parametric study has been performed where parameters influencing dynamic wind response are varied. The study is performed using a semi-deterministic time-domain wind analysis method. Unsteady aerodynamic model is applied for the shape of the CPV structure collector at different configurations in conjunction with a consistent mass-spring-damper model with the corresponding degrees of freedom to describe the dynamic response of the system. It is shown that, unlike the static response analysis, the variation of the peak wind response with many structural parameters is highly nonlinear because of the dynamic wind action. A steel structural optimization process reveals that close attention to structural and site wind parameters could lead to optimal design of CPV steel support structure.
