This study was carried out in order to reduce the amount of underground water which is used in the double layered single span plastic greenhouse for retaining heat. For this research, two plastic green houses of the double layered single span plastic greenhouse were installed. There was equipped of internal small tunnel for keeping warm air in the interior of the house. Then the internal small tunnel for keeping warm air was fitted with PVC duct of 50 cm in diameter filled with subsurface water. The surplus solar energy in the greenhouse was stored in the water in the PVC duct. Four FCUs (Fan Coil Unit), which has the capacity of 8,000 kcal per hour, were installed in the middle of the house, and a circulation motor in heat storage water tank was operated from 10:30 a.m. to 16:00 p.m. in order to circulate water between the water tank and the FCUs. Consequently about 5 degrees celsius could be maintained in the interior of the internal small tunnel for keeping warm air with the external temperature of lower than minus 5 degrees celsius. It appeared that the alteration of an internal temperature of the house was flexible depending on the sunlight during daytime. To prevent the water freezing, mixing antifreezing liquid in the water or operating FCU continuously was needed. Also, in order to use the surplus solar thermal energy on plastic green house of water curtain system efficiently, storing the surplus heat during daytime simultaneously finding a method of using water curtain systematic underground water happened to be important. As a result of this research, when the house's interior temperature is below zero the operation of FCU appeared to be impossible. Considering the amount of water used in the house with water-curtain-heating system is 150~200 ton per day, using the system mentioned in this research showed that reducing the underground water more than 80% in order to maintain the internal temperature as the level of 5 degree celsius at the extreme temperature of minus 5 degrees celsius.

Simulation study on the operating characteristics in the solar hybrid R744 heat pump system for residential applications was carried out with heat pump operating temperature, outdoor temperature and solar radiation. As a result, collector operating time is decreased by 1.5 hours due to the increase of water temperature in the heat storage tank when the heat pump operating temperature rises. Heat pump operating time is reduced by 19.4% owing to the high temperature of a heat storage tank. Besides, indoor heating time is decreased from 10.3 to 5.5 hours as the indoor temperature increases from $3^{\circ}C$ to $11^{\circ}C$. In addition to, when the solar radiation rises from 10 to 20 MJ/$m^2$, the maximum outlet temperature of a solar collector is increased from $65^{\circ}C$ to $71^{\circ}C$.

본 연구는 군 복지시설인 육군 OO회관에 신 재생에너지 중 태양열 및 지열시스템을 적용했을 때, 각각의 효율성과 경제성을 분석하여 그 성능을 평가하였다. 연구 대상 건물은 철근콘크리트구조로서 건물 규모가 지하 1층 지상 3층이며 연면적이 약 2,917$m^2$인 건물이다. 건물의 용도는 목욕탕, 식당, 객실 및 사무실이며, 연간 냉 난방 에너지 소비량 판단 및 분석을 위해 e-Quest 시뮬레이션을 이용하였다. 신 재생에너지 적용에 대한 경제성 평가는 RETScreen 시스템을 이용하였다. 단, 신 재생에너지 시스템 사용은 연구대상 건물을 표준공사비로 판단했을 때 공사비의 5% 범위내로 한정하였다. 신 재생 에너지시스템 적용시 태양열시스템은 급탕용으로, 지열시스템은 냉방용으로 하였다. 연구결과 태양열시스템이 지열시스템보다 효과적이었다. 지열시스템은 투자비 상환시점이 약 16년 6개월 이후인 반면, 태양열시스템은 약 3년 11개월 이후에 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. 향후 화석에너지의 고갈과 지구온난화 등의 문제 해결을 위한 방안으로서 신 재생에너지의 이용 확대가 예상되며, 이에 군에서도 안정적인 에너지 수급을 위해 지속적인 발전이 되길 기원한다.

This study was concerned with the performance of solar air heater using parallel channels. Heat transmission model was developed and fabricated to increase the economic feasibility for solar heating system by using the cheap zinc plate. The prformance was discussed as a function of mass flow rate, and plate, inlet and outlet temperatures. Experimental results show that heat transmission model is sufficient for the analysis of thermal characteristics of air heater and collection efficiency is better than the domestic water heater, as the range 32-49 percent. Collection efficiency in the 2 layers of glass cover is better than that in 1 layer, so it is considered better to use the 2 layers of glass cover during the cold winter season in Korea.

Schools are one of favorable public buildings for Renewable Energy(RE) systems due to site conditions and their energy demand profiles(e.g. daytime-based use of hot water and heating/cooling). Although the government encourages schools to be equipped with RE systems, the adoption of RE systems in existing energy supply systems faces technical and financial barriers. For example, when installing a RE-based combination system(RECS) to meet the energy demand at various school scales, identifying cost effective combination of capacities of the RECS is not trivial since it usually requires technically intensive work including detailed simulation and demand/supply analysis with extensive data. This kind of simulation-based approaches is hardly implementable in practice. To address this, a simpler and applicable decision-supporting method is suggested in this study. This paper presents a simplified model in support of decision-making for optimal capacities of RECS within given budget scales and schools sizes. The proposed model was derived from detailed simulation results and statistical data. Using this model, the optimal capacities of RECS can be induced from the number of classes in a school.

Purpose: This preliminary study investigated a potential of the water wall systems that provide heat storage and natural lighting control simultaneously. Method: In order for transparency of the water wall to be controlled, the study first proposed two measures: to adjust transparency of the water wall; to control transparency of water wall surface. The performance of two measures then was verified and compared by experiments. In addition, a trade-off between heat collect and heat storage resulting from using additive for adjusting transparency was investigated. Result: The experiment showed that the two measures are similar in performance. The investigation of trade-off relation showed the additive should have the same heat storage as the water to prevent decrease in thermal performance of the water wall. As an economical measure to control transparency of the water wall, this study suggested a measure of secondary heat transfer systems using shading device that first absorbs solar radiation and then transfers heat to the water wall. The experiment show that performance of the proposed measure is similar to controlling transparency of water wall surface. In conclusion, it is expected that the performance of the water wall can be economically maximized by using the proposed mean in terms of heating, cooling and lighting energy saving.

Performance analysis of an absorption heat pump system for solar energy recovery has been done by computer simulation to find improved working pairs. Based on the thermodynamic analysis, the coefficient of performance and mass flow ratio have been calculated to compare two aqueous solutions [LiCl-water, $LiCi-CaCl_2-Zn(NO_3)_2$-water] which were developed for cooling by others, with the conventional LiBr-water solution. As a result of this analysis, the performances of the new aqueous solutions were found to be better than that of LiBr-water solution not only in cooling systems, but also in heating and in heat transformer systems. Their theoretical thermodynamic performance data were given here with.

본 연구의 목적은 주거용 태양열 온수이용에 있어서 성층저장의 잠점을 평가하고 최적의 설계변수를 제시하되 실험이 아닌 시뮬레이션을 통한다는 것이다. 그 결과는 다음과 같으며 실험의 결과들과 잘 일치함을 보였다. 1. 탱크의 성층분활이 증가함에 따라서 태양부하율이 증가함을 보여 주었고 본 연구에서는 평균 10% 정도 증가함을 나타내었다. 2. 저장탱크의 높이 대 지름의 비가 3정도일 때가 태양부하율이 최대가 되었으며 그 이상이 되면 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 3. 집열기로 부터 저장탱크로 유입되는 온수의 유동율이 증가할 수록 완전혼합저장에서는 태양부하율이 증가하지만 성충저장에서는 유입율이 감소하는 것이 태양부하율을 증가시키는 결과가 되었다. 4. 이와 같은 결과로 성층축열시스템 전체적으로는 약 17%의 성능 향상을 기대할 수 있다.

최근 늘어가는 에너지 수요를 화석연료에만 의존 할 수 없게 되면서 대체 에너지의 중요성이 대두되고 있으며, 이러한 상황에서 유기랭킨 사이클(Organic Rankine Cycle, 이하 ORC)등 산업체 폐열, 태양열, 지열, 해수 온도차 등의 저등급 에너지를 효과적으로 활용하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지역난방 축열시 회수수를 혼합하지 않고 ORC를 이용하여 하부사이클을 구성하여 성능해석 상용프로그램으로 작동유체 및 운전특성을 예측하였다. 지역난방수 운전조건인 열원 온도 $120^{\circ}C$, 열원 유량 $163m^3/h$(회수수 유량을 고려한 값)로 하고 이 온도에 적합한 다수의 작동유체를 선정하여 성능해석을 수행하였으며, 최고의 성능이 나타난 R245fa의 경우 269.2kW출력과 6.37%효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 ORC 시스템의 응축기 압력변화에 따라 지역난방 회수수 온도가 $57.3{\sim}85^{\circ}C$범위에 형성됨으로서 보일러 입구온도상승에 따른 연료 절감 효과가 예상되었다.
