تتناول هذه الدراسة إمكانية استخدام الأرض كوسيط تبريد لمبادل حراري في نظم تكييف بالمباني بديلا عن الهواء الجوي، وحيث أن تقييم الخواص الحرارية للأرض هامة جداً لمعرفة مدى نجاح هذا النظام فقد أجريت تجربة عملية للتحقق من ذلك. ومن اجل إنجاز هذه التجربة ثم دفن أنبوب عمودي في باطن الأرض ليتدفق من خلاله الماء عبر دائرة مغلقة، وتم تزويد المياه بكمية ثابته من الحرارة مناظرة للحرارة التي يفقدها المبادل الحراري في نظام التبريد الهوائي. غير أن الهدف من هذا الاختبار دراسة التغير في درجة حرارة المياه الداخلة والخارجة من الأنبوب المدفون في باطن الأرض أثناء تزويد المياه بالحرارة خلال فترة زمنيه، وهذا الاختبار يسمي باختبار الاستجابة الحرارية للأرض.لقد أوضحت النتائج المتحصل عليها أن درجة حرارة خروج المياه من الارض تكاد تكون ثابتة بعد فترة زمنية قصيرة من زمن الاختبار،وأن درجة حرارة المياه هذه ملائمة كوسيط تبريد لمبادل حراري في نظام تكييف المباني. كما أن ثبوت درجة الحرارة هذا يساعد في الحصول على حمل تبريد مستقر، وهو ما لا يتوفر عند استخدام الهواء الخارجي كوسيط للتبريد باعتبارهذا ذا درجة حرارة متغيره، وتم الاستفادة من هذا الاختبار في تقييم الخواص الحرارية للارض، وإن هذه الدراسة قد بينت أن الموقع الجغرافي الذي تم اختباره تميز بكفاءة عالية، ومشيرا لإمكانية استخدام هذا النظام في تكييف المباني. Abstract This study is investigating the use of ground as cooling medium in a heat exchanger system for air conditioning of buildings as a replacement to the ambient air. However, evaluating the ground properties is very important to known the range of success of this system. An experimental setup is conducted to realize the above. In order to perform this experiment, a pipe is buried into the ground where the water is flowing in a closed circuit. A constant quantity of heat power is supplied to the water equivalent to the rejected heat from the heat exchanger in the air heat pump system. However, the objective of this experiment is to study the change in the inlet and the outlet water flow temperature from the buried pipe in the ground, during the heat injection to the water for a specific time. This test is called the thermal response test of the ground.The test results are clearly indicating that the outlet water from the ground has a constant temperature after a short duration from the test period. This water temperature is convenient as a heat carrier for air conditioning of buildings. This constant water temperature is also assisting in obtaining a constant cooling load. This can not obtained in using the out side air as a cooling carrier where the air is of a changing temperature. This study is indicating that the test site has a high efficiency, and this system can be used for air conditioning of buildings.

Abstract During the last years there has been an increasing consciousness of the environmental problems, created by the use of fossil fuels in electrical power generation consumed by converting cooling systems. In addition, the use of common working fluids (refrigerants), with their ozonedepleting and global warming potential, has become a serious environmental problem. This underlines the need to implement advanced, new concepts in building air-conditioning. The most common global type of thermally driven technology to produce chilled water is absorption cooling. For air-conditioning applications, absorption systems commonly use the water/lithium bromide or ammonia/water as working pair of fluids. The objective of this study is to establish a fundamental basis for further research and development within the field of solar cooling. In this study, an overview of possible systems for solar powered refrigeration and airconditioning systems will be presented. The concept of the ‘Solar Cooling Path’ is introduced, including a discussion of the energy source to the collector. Brief information and comparisons of different absorption refrigeration cycles are also presented. A solar-driven absorption refrigeration system has been selected as a case study for a further detailed investigation. A low temperature heat source can be used to drive the absorption refrigeration cycle, making the system suitable for integration with solar thermal collector. The Transient System Simulation program (TRNSYS) and Engineering Equation Solver (EES) simulation tools are used to model and analyze the performance of a solar-driven absorption refrigeration system. Analysis of the absorption cycle system is initiated by steady-state analysis. A modeling of single effect water/lithium bromide absorption cycle was constructed to study the effect of the operating variable on the system performance and to determine the optimum operating conditions for the absorption cycle. This model was developed by Engineering Equations Solver program (EES). In practice, the ambient conditions and solar radiation are not constant. Therefore, a dynamic analysis is useful for determining the characteristics of the system during the entire year, and dimensioning the important components of the solar collector subsystem, such as storage tanks and collector area. The overall solar absorption cooling system has been simulated by the TRNSYS program with a typical meteorological year file containing the weather parameters for the capital of Libya, Tripoli. Finally, a parametric study was carried out to investigate the influence of key parameters on the overall system performance of solar absorption cooling system and hence to improve and optimize the system design. Results from the parametric optimization indicated that with an area of 130m2 of flat plate collectors with an inclination of 32° and 3.5m3 of storage tank is achieved to cover the demand of air conditioning of a 35kW absorption chiller.

Abstract Glass fiber reinforced plastic (GRP) pipes, are widely used in many of industrial applications, such as oil industries and petrochemicals plants to transport a wide range of different liquids like fresh water, sea water, lubricant oils, acids and caustic etc. This related to their lightness, corrosion resistance, strength durability, high tensile strength, low density, and ease of installation, so that selected as better than traditional metal pipes in such applications. But the internal surfaces of these pipes can be exposed to slurry erosion due to the impact of sand particles mixed with fluids at high velocity leads to create, catastrophic failure, which limits the useful life of pipes and their efficiency. Therefore the erosion is a critical parameter for design, selection and operation of hydraulic transportation system. This thesis has studied experimentally the Slurry erosion wear behavior of GRP pips at various parameters such as impact angles, and velocity of particles. Jet type erosion tester was used as rig and sand used as solid particle mixture with water. The results clearly indicated that the factors contribute to wear of Pipes. The erosion rate or weight loss increased as time, and velocity of solid particles increased, the effect of impact angles shifts from ductile behavior to brittle behavior depending on the value of erosion efficiency. The comparison between predicted and experimental results shows agreement within ±7% for Epoxy and ±8% for Polyester.
