District Heating & Cooling Design

Beginning with Korea’s first district heating supply project in 5 new towns in the capital region, KDHEC has performed the design and supervision of test operation in Seoul, Sangam, Daegu, Suwon, Yongin, Cheongju, Buksuwon, Yangsan, Gimhae, Hwaseong, Paju, Gwanggyo, Pangyo, Yangju, Uijeongbu Minlag, Homaesil, etc.

Social Contribution of District Heating Plant

The district heating system has greatly contributed to not only improving the quality of life by establishing the comfortable living environment but also lowering the national energy usage and improving the global warming by effectively utilizing energy.

- Configuration of safe and efficient heating source

- Configuration of economic heating source by utilizing the low cost heat source first

- Improvement of national power plant operation using the distributed power source

Social Contribution of District Cooling Plant

Power peak shaving in the summer season through optimum combination of absorption chiller, turbo chiller and chilled water accumulator has greatly contributed to national energy saving.

- Improved economic efficiency with absorption chiller using the steam out of waste incinerator

- Improved energy utilization efficiency with load tracking operation using chiller unit control

- Improvement of national power plant operation using distributed power

- Mitigation of heat island of residential and commercial districts by supplying heat using the pipeline exclusively for district cooling

Design of District Heating & Cooling System

A district heating & cooling system is divided into the heat generation facility, heat transport facility and heat usage facility. KDHEC designs the heat generation facility and heat transport facility.

District Heating & Cooling Heat Source Design

KDHEC designs the heat source to supply the optimum heat for district heating & cooling

- PLB exclusive heat source

- heat source for LNG cogeneration power plant

- heat source for resource recovery facilities such as waste incinerator

- District cooling system configuration: Combination of the absorption chiller, turbo chiller and ice slurry chilled water storage system according to the district cooling load requirement to design the optimum cooling supply system

Design of System to Seamlessly Supply Heat

The equipment transports the district heating water produced by the heat generation facility to the user. KDHEC designs the booster station needed for heat transport.

- Linked boosting station

- Linked heat exchanger booster station

- Heat transport pipeline design
