One major breakthrough in the field of heating, ventilation and air conditioning has been the development of heat pumps. Heat pump systems offer economic alternatives for recovering heat from different sources for use in various industrial, commercial and residential applications. In recent years, the heat pump has been tipped to have a very good potential for hot water production. This paper investigated the performance of a vapor injection heat pump with the variation of sub-cooler capacity at heating mode. The heating capacity of the vapor injection heat pump slightly increased with an increment of sub-cooler capacity, while COP didn't increase continuously. The 20% capacity of sub-cooler comparing with system capacity could be used as a standard to select sub-cooler capacity.

다중관식 헬리컬 코일형 가스냉각기내 $CO_2$의 열유량과 압력강하에 대해서 실험적으로 조사하였다. $CO_2$와 냉각수의 유량은 각각 0.06~0.075kg/s이고, 가스냉각기의 냉각압력은 8~10 MPa이다. $CO_2$의 열유량은 냉각수 질량유량, $CO_2$의 질량유량과 냉각압력에 비례하여 증가한다. $CO_2$의 압력강하는 냉각수와 $CO_2$의 질량유량이 감소할수록 감소하지만, $CO_2$의 냉각압력이 증가할수록 감소한다. 다중관식 헬리컬 코일형 가스냉각기내 $CO_2$의 열유량과 압력강하는 각각 이중관식 가스냉각기보다 상당히 높게 또는 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 다중관식 헬리컬 코일형 가스냉각기에 $CO_2$를 적용하는 경우에는 가스냉각기의 고효율화, 고성능화, 컴팩트화가 가능할 것이다.

The heat capacity and pressure drop of $CO_2$ and coolant in a multi-tube type gas cooler were investigated experimentally. The main components of the refrigerant loop are a receiver, a $CO_2$ compressor, a mass flow meter, an evaporator and a multi-tube type gas cooler as a test section. The mass flowrate of $CO_2$ and coolant were varied from 0.06 to 0.075 [kg/s], respectively and the cooling pressure of gas cooler were from 8 to 10 [MPa]. The heat capacity of $CO_2$ in the test section is increased with the increment in mass flowrate of coolant, the cooling pressure and mass flowrate of $CO_2$. The pressure drop of $CO_2$ is decreased with the decrease in mass flowrate of coolant and $CO_2$, but decreased with increase in cooling pressure of $CO_2$. The heat capacity of $CO_2$ per unit heat transfer area of gas cooler is greatly high. Therefore, in case of the application of $CO_2$ at the multi-tube type gas cooler, it is expected to carry out the high-efficiency, high-performance and compactness of gas cooler.

다중관식 헬리컬 코일형 가스냉각기내 $CO_2$의 열유량과 압력강하는 LMTD 방식을 이용하여 예측하였고 그 결과를 실험값과 비교하였다. $CO_2$와 냉각수의 유량은 각각 0.06~0.075 kg/s이고, 가스냉각기의 냉각압력은 8~10 MPa이다. 초임계 $CO_2$의 냉각시의 열유량과 압력강하는 LMTD 방식을 이용하여 예측하였고, 이때 냉매측 열전달과 압력강하식은 각각 Gnielinski와 Dittus-Boelter 식을 사용하였다. LMTD법으로 예측한 값과 실험값을 비교한 결과, $CO_2$의 열유량과 압력강하는 상대적으로 좋은 일치를 보였다.

The sub-cooled nitrogen cooling system at 65 K with GM cryo-cooler is developed for cooling down the DC reactor of 6.6 ㎸-200 A class HTS Fault Current Limiter(SFCL). The sub-cooled nitrogen cooling is more economic than saturated nitrogen cooling, because the length of HTS wire is reduced in the same capacity, as well as, more stable. The cooling system with the GM cryo-cooler installed on the cryostat is not only compact but also efficient for energy saving. In the nitrogen vessel, after evacuating with vacuum pump to saturated nitrogen at 65 K, sub-cooled nitrogen at 65 K is made by putting in gas helium to 1 atm. During the short circuit test occurring the fault current of 1000 A, the sub-cooled nitrogen cooled DC reactor for SFCL is kept the state of sub-cooled nitrogen at 65 K.

The performance characteristics of water-chilling heat pump using $CO_2$ with respect to variation of inlet temperature and mass flow rate of secondary fluid was investigated experimentally. An experimental apparatus is consisted of a compressor, a gas cooler, an expansion valve, an evaporator and a liquid receiver. All heat exchangers used in the test rig are counter-flow-type heat exchangers with concentric dual tubes, which ate made of copper. The gas cooler and the evaporator consist of 6 and 4 straight sections respectively arranged in parallel, each has 2.4 m length. The experimental results were summarized as the followings : As inlet temperature of secondary fluid in the gas cooler increases from $10^{\circ}C$ to $40^{\circ}C$, the compressor work, heating capacity and heating COP were varied to 37.8%, -13%, -35.9%, respectively. The heating capacity, compressor work, heating COP were turned into 23.3%, 6.42%, 13.1%, respectively when ass flow rate of secondary fluid in the evaporator increases from 70 g/s to 150 g/s. The above tendency is similar with performance variation with respect to temperature variation of secondary fluid in the conventional vapor compression cycle.

In this study, a $CO_2$ air-conditioning system was investigated with different types of electrically driven compressors, parallel flow type gas cooler, four-pass type evaporator, internal heat exchanger integrated with accumulator, and electric expansion valve. The experimental study was conducted under various operating conditions (ie., different rotational compressor speeds, air inlet temperatures and air velocity coming into heat exchangers). The experimental results showed the cooling capacity was 3.5kW at $35^{\circ}C$ ambient temperature when the vehicle was idle (ie., the worst condition for cooling off the gas cooler). In terms of performance effect of the compressor, the e-RP model had a slightly better cooling capacity and coefficient of performance than the e-GR model under the same test conditions. An experimental equation for optimum cooling-performance control was also suggested based on the results. A high-pressure control algorithm for the super critical cycle was determined to achieve both maximum cooling performance and efficient energy consumption. The results from the experimental equation coincided with those of previous experimental studies.

This paper describes conceptual development and idea-verification of a sub-miniature portable cooler which dose not necessitate any pre-cooling nor any external energy supply. The basic principle of the cooling mechanism is the vaporization of water and sub-sequent cooling due to the evaporative latent heat loss. In this work, the vaporization of the water is stimulated by desiccant material to improve the cooling effect. The evaporative cooling caused by the desiccant is modeled and analyzed considering the sorption characteristics of the desiccant. In addition, the portable cooler is fabricated in the shape of a thin pad, and its cooling characteristics are tested and compared with the analytic results.

The heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop during gas cooling process of carbon dioxide in a horizontal tube were investigated. The experiments were conducted without oil in the refrigerant loop. The main components of the refrigerant loop are a receiver, a variable-speed pump, a mass flowmeter, an evaporator, and a gas cooler(test section). The main components of the water loop consist of a variable-speed pump, an isothermal tank, and a flowmeter. The gas cooler is a counterflow heat exchanger with refrigerant flowing in the inner tube and water flowing in the annulus. The test section consists of smooth, horizontal stainless steel tube of the outer diameter of 9.53mm and of the inner diameter of 7.75mm. The length of the test section is 6m. The refrigerant mass fluxes were 200∼300kg/(m2$.$s) and the inlet pressure of the gas cooler varied from 7.5㎫ to 8.5㎫. The main results were summarized as follows : Pressure drop of CO2 increases with increasing gas cooler pressure. The friction factors of CO2 in a horizontal tube show a relatively good agreement with the correlation by Blasius. The heat transfer coefficient of CO2 in transcritical region increases with decreasing gas cooler pressure and decreasing mass flux of CO2. Most of correlations proposed in a transcritical region showed significant deviations with experimental data except for those predicted by Gnielinski.

본 연구에서는 ${\epsilon}$-NTU 방법을 사용하여 $CO_2$ 히트펌프 가스쿨러의 열전달 성능을 해석하였고, 공개된 실험결과와 비교하였다. $CO_2$ 히트펌프 가스쿨러의 열전달률, 냉매측/순환수측 출구온도를 EES로 계산하였다. 해석은 시험부를 하나의 구간으로 설정하여 냉매와 순환수측 입출구의 평균온도를 물성치로 적용한 평균해석과 시험부를 50구간으로 나누어 각 구간에서의 출구온도를 다음 구간의 입구온도로 사용한 국소해석으로 진행되었다. 실험결과로부터 평균해석보다는 국소해석의 결과가 실험값을 더 만족하였으며, 열전달률은 0.3~1.1%, 순환수측 출구온도는 1.31~1.88%, 냉매측 출구온도는 3.12~5.18% 정도의 오차를 보였다.
