Exergy Transfer

A marine seawater source heat pump is based on the relatively stable temperature of seawater, and uses it as the system’s cold and heat source to provide the ship with the necessary cold and heat energy. This technology is one of the important solutions to reduce ship energy consumption. Therefore, in this paper, the heat exchanger in the CO2 heat pump system with graphene nano-fluid refrigerant is experimentally studied, and the influence of related factors on its heat transfer enhancement performance is analyzed. First, the paper describes the transformation of the heat pump system experimental bench, the preparation of six different mass concentrations (0~1 wt.%) of graphene nanofluid and its thermophysical properties. Secondly, this paper defines graphene nanofluids as beneficiary fluids, the heat exchanger gains cold fluid heat exergy increase, and the consumption of hot fluid heat is heat exergy decrease. Based on the heat transfer efficiency and exergy efficiency of the heat exchanger, an exergy transfer model was established for a seawater source of tube heat exchanger. Finally, the article carried out a test of enhanced heat transfer of heat exchangers with different concentrations of graphene nanofluid refrigerants under simulated seawater constant temperature conditions and analyzed the test results using energy and an exergy transfer model. The results show that the enhanced heat transfer effect brought by the low concentration (0~0.1 wt.%) of graphene nanofluid is greater than the effect of its viscosity on the performance and has a good exergy transfer effectiveness. When the concentration of graphene nanofluid is too high, the resistance caused by the increase in viscosity will exceed the enhanced heat transfer gain brought by the nanofluid, which results in a significant decrease in the exergy transfer effectiveness.

Feasibility of a ground source heat pump (GSHP) system with pile heat exchangers for use in houses is evaluated through a numerical simulation. This GSHP system differs from ordinary borehole-type GSHP systems because short foundation piles installed at close intervals are used as heat exchangers. It is shown that the annual heat supply provided by this GSHP system is able to satisfy the demand of a house due to the air-source exchange at ground surface.

The heat pump system by using earth energy is increasing very rapidly. In this paper, by studying the underground heat exchanger heat transfer mode, the computing platform for ground source heat pump system was established. Through a engineering case, the influence character of the circulation flow velocity in ground heat exchangers on the fluid temperature, the heat pump power consumption, and the length of system were analyzed, which provide an approach for system engineering design and operation prediction, and for the thermodynamic analysis of performance of system year by year and prospective study to guide the engineering practice.

Thermal Interference

In order to analyze the influence of groundwater flow on ground heat exchangers with different arrangements, with a project in Nanjing the access temperature field in the multi-borehole field was simulated after the ground source heat pump system had been performed for a year. Simulation results show that the access temperature is higher in the ground surrounding the borehole than the center of the corresponding borehole, thus forming a thermal barrier surrounding the borehole. Groundwater flow helps relieve temperature imbalance owing to the imbalance of heating and cooling load. The performance of the ground heat exchangers is better in staggered arrangement than in aligned arrangement. In the borehole field, the boreholes upstream have thermal interference on those downstream. And the extent of thermal interference depends on the direction of the groundwater flow when the locations of the boreholes are fixed in the borehole field.
