Solar energy, which is one of renewable energy, would be the most useful resources that can be applied to making energy recycling villages without using fossil energy. This study analyzed energy potential on solar energy considering weather condition in three traditional villages and compared with energy consumption surveyed. A photovoltaic system having 3.0kWp capacity of unit module can generate 182.5%, 96.1% and 170.9% of the yearly mean consumption of electric power in Makhyun, Boojang, and Soso, respectively. A flat-plate solar collector having $2.64m^2$ area of unit module can generate warm water of $142{\ell}$/day, $89{\ell}$/day, and $173{\ell}$/day, respectively in three study villages. In Makhyun and Soso, photovoltaic power and warm water produced by solar energy were sufficient to supply required amount of electric power and warm water. However, both electric power and warm water produced by unit solar module were not sufficient in Boojang area, and so it is required to increase the module area by more than 50%. According to the results of this study, the appropriate combination of energy resources can be applied to rural green-village planning if the characteristic of energy potential for each local area is considered.

Studies on the annual performance of three different type of solar-absorption heat pump system (parallel type, series type, and generator type) are carried out by using the computer simulation. These include the calculation of solar energy from the solar collector, and the revision of computer package, developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory, to predict the annual performance. Finally using weather data and load conditions, the annual performance are obtained. Results show that the annual operating costs of three solar-absorption heat pump systems are almost same values and 44% lower than that of the pure absorption heat pump system. The total annual input energys of solar-absorption heat pump systems are also about 44% lower than that of the pure absorption heat pump. The nominal size of the solar-absorption heat pump systems can be reduced to a value of 55% that of the pure absorption heat pump that would normally be specified under identical conditions.

We have experimented an actual solar water heating system acquiring real data for one year period. On the basis of the operation data, it is necessary to predict the system performance such as collector efficiency and solar fraction, and to analyze the economical efficiency for system optimal design. To estimate the performance of actual systems through simulation, valid modelling for components consisting of the system should be accompanied. The present study is focused on the modelling for load patterns and operating control conditions. We proposed two load models: concentration model which gathers real loads as a meaningful group and distribution model which disperses real loads with time. If grouping of the load distribution is suitable, the predicted values by the concentration model approaches to those by the distribution model close to actual load pattern apparently. As a result, both of them are in good agreement with those by experiment.

A Photovoltaic/Thermal(PVT) solar system consists of PV module and thermal absorber plate which convert the absorbed solar radiation into electricity and heat. Meaningful researches and development (R&D) on the PVT technologies have been performed since the 1970s. This paper presents a review of the previous works covering the various types of PVT and their performance analysis in terms of electrical and thermal efficiency. This review compares electrical and thermal efficiency of the different types of PVT collectors and analyzes the parameters affecting PVT performance. Based on the literature review, box charmel type PVT with unglazed, or flat plate PVT with glazed have the highest efficiency among them. From the literature review, R&D should be carried out aiming at improving their overall electrical and thermal efficiency and cutting down the cost, making them more competitive in the energy consumption market.

The intermediate range of temperatures($100{\sim}300^{\circ}C$) which can be achieved with CPCs(Compound Parabolic Concentrators) without tracking device provides both economic and thermal advantages for solar collector design. The present paper summarizes critical design considerations for CPC with cylindrical absorber and its optical performance using ray tracing program. Concentration ratios vary as acceptance half angle, ratio of reflector height to aperture width and ratio of reflector area to aperture area. This effects showed that the concentration ratio was increased as acceptance angle but optimum ratio of reflector height to aperture width existed at critical value. As a result of ray tracing, solar ray losses was maximized at acceptance half angle and this problem was solved by increasing absorber tube diameter. The concentrating flux distribution on the absorber surface was uniform but peak flux existed.

A theoretical and experimental study was conducted in order to design highly efficient solar air heaters using porous material. Radiative characteristics of glass windows and porous absorbing media were correlated through spectral transmittances measured by the UV-Visible and the FT-IR spectrometers. Using those characteristics the efficiencies of collectors were numerically calculated with the use of the two-flux radiation model. Based on the theoretical results, an experimental solar collector was designed and constructed. Experimental results under various conditions show that the daily efficiencies are over 60% in general and agree well with the theoretically calculated ones.

The new f-chart capable of estimating long-term thermal performance of solar space and water heating systems was developed. The system comprise a flat plate solar collector, heat exchanger, storage tank filled with water, auxiliary fuel fired heater, and a house structure. The information obtained from many simulations of solar heating systems has been used to develop this f-chart. Actual hourly meteorological data collected in Seoul, Daejeon, Kwangju and Daegu, Korea from 1979 to 1983 have been utilized in these simulations. The new f-equation is as follows: $$f=1.034Y_{-}0.0968X_{-}0.2235Y^2+0.0043X^2+0.0144Y^3$$. The system performance estimates obtained from the developed f-chart are in close agreement with the results of experiment.

평판형 태양열 집열기의 효율을 높이기 위한 방법으로 열전달 향상 장치의 삽입, 표면 거칠기의 변화 등 다양한 방법들이 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 실험을 통해 다양한 열전달 향상 장치를 제작하고 이를 덕트에 삽입해 실험을 수행하였다. 실험은 기본적으로 덕트 윗 평판에 일정한 열유속을 가하였고, 삽입된 모델은 매끈한 덕트 형상(Base case)과 Chamfered rib $10^{\circ}$, Chamfered rib $20^{\circ}$, Rib & Groove, Rib & Dimple 모델이다. 실험은 Reynolds 수가 2,300~22,000의 범위에서 이루어졌으며 이는 난류영역에 해당한다. 열전달 향상 장치를 삽입하면 면적의 증가와 2차 유동으로 인하여 열전달이 향상되고, Reynolds 수가 증가할수록 열전달이 향상되었으며 압력강하도 증가하였다. 열전달 측면에서는 Rib & Dimple 모델이 열전달 향상 효과가 가장 좋았으며, 압력강하는 Chamfered rib $10^{\circ}$ 모델이 가장 낮았으며, 성능계수 측면에서도 Chamfered rib $10^{\circ}$ 모델이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다.

This study is aimed to analyze the effects of heat pipe shape on the heat transfer in solar collector with a axial grooved heat pipe. In the design of a heat pipe. two of the most important criteria to be met are the operating temperature range and the maximum heat transport capacity, When the operating temperature range is known and the working fluid has been selected, the maximum heat transport capacity depends strongly on capillary pressure and liquid flow. The heat transport capacity of the heat pipe will depend on the geometry of the heat pipe, the wick structure. the vapor channel shape. groove number. cooling temperature. condenser length and pipe diameter. So various shapes are used for mathematical models of two-phase flow in grooved heat pipe. From the results. the adequate groove shape and scale are presented by considering the heat transport and capillary limitation.
