바이오매스 가스화는 세계적인 증가 추세에 있는 에너지 수요를 충족할 수 있는 기술 중의 하나이다. 바이오매스 가스화를 통해서 농업 폐기물 등 다양한 바이오매스 자원을 에너지로 전환할 수 있고 $CO_2$ 배출량 또한 줄일 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 COMSOL$^{(R)}$ 3.4 소프트웨어를 이용하여 바이오매스 원료와 운전 조건에 따른 가스화 효율 및 합성가스 조성의 변화를 분석하였다. 원료와 구동조건을 최적화하기 위해 가스화 모델을 세우고 원료와 구동조건을 달리하여 합성가스의 성분을 분석 및 예측하였다. 이 모델은 물리적인 실험을 통해 알고 있는 조건을 통해서 합성가스 성분을 시간에 따라 예측할 수 있다. 모델을 이용하여 함수비 5~30 %, 공기중 산소함량 5~50 %, 공기공급 유량 5~45 L/min, 온도 973~1273 K의 조건에서 합성가스의 성분을 예측한 결과 실제 실험 결과와 일치하는 것을 알 수 있다. 모델링 결과 양질의 합성가스를 생산하려면 원료의 회분함량이 적어야 하고 수소 함량이 높은 합성가스를 생산하려면 반응 온도가 높게 유지되고 원료의 함수비가 높아야 한다. 가스화장치의 온도를 높이면 합성가스의 성분 중 CO의 함량이 많아지고, CO의 함량이 많아지면 가스의 발열량이 높아지는 것을 알 수 있다. 또한 CO의 농도가 높고 발열량이 높은 합성가스를 생산하기 위해서는 ER값은 작아야 한다.

현재 초고압 송변전기기에 적용되고 있는 $SF_6$가스는 절연 및 소호성능이 우수하며 회복특성이 뛰어나기 때문에 초고압 기기의 절연매체로서 널리 사용되고 있으나 가격이 비싸고 저온 및 높은 압력에서 액화되기 쉬우며 대기 중으로 방출될 경우에는 온실효과를 야기 시키는 단점을 가지고 있다. 최근 환경에 대한 관심과 규제가 높아지면서 온실가스에 대한 규제로서 교토 의정서가 정식 발효됨에 따라 $SF_6$가스는 금후 총량 제한에 의해 사용량이 규제 받을 가능성이 대단히 높다. 따라서 $SF_6$ 가스와 Air, N2, CO2, N2/O2 합성가스, He 등과 혼합된 절연매체들이 하나의 대안으로 연구되었다. 본 연구에서는 대체 절연가스로 주목받고 있는 Dry-air(공기 중에서 수분과 각종 불순물을 제거한 공기), N2/O2 합성가스, N2 가스를 4mm 간격의 준평등(구대구전극) 전계에서 0.5atm에서 9atm까지 변화시켰을 때 절연내력을 비교하였다. 또한, 보다 평등전계에 가까운 10mm의 간격에서도 0atm에서 4atm까지 동일한 전압을 인가하여 절연내력을 비교 분석하였다.

The PID controller with fin angle and thrust as control input was designed based on the aerodynamic data of scramjet system. Flight simulation following a given trajectory which strike the target point after climb and cruise with constant dynamic pressure was conducted. After that, the required thrust for the climb and cruise was calculated and the required fuel flow rate for the hydrogen fuel dual mode scramjet combustor was analyzed. The combustor analysis of this study which conducted on integrated model of independently developed inlet, combustor, nozzles and external aerodynamic models, laying the foundation for the integrated design of the air breathing hypersonic system.

Parametric study has been conducted to calculate the capacity of vacuum pump system that will be used to maintain the pressure of the tube system under atmosphere level. Recently many railroad researchers pay attention to the tube train system as one of the super high speed transportation system. To achieve the ultra super high speed, the inside of tube system should be maintained the low pressure level. In the low pressure environment, it is well known that air resistance of train is drastically decreased. Vacuum pump system will be used to make the low pressure level of tube system, exhaust the leakage air and supplement additional vacuum pumping. Qualitative and quantitative study has been conducted to review the effects of major parameters concerned with the capacity of vacuum pump system. As a results of these studies, we get the lump capacity of vacuum pump for various parameters. These results can be used to analyse the effects of the reduction of air resistance.

In order to provide effective operating conditions for the fan in a wet cooling tower with film fill, a new program to search for the minimum fan power was developed using a model of the optimal total annual cost of the tower based on Merkel's model. In addition, a type of design map for a cooling tower was also developed. The inlet water temperature and heat load were considered as key parameters. The present program was first validated using several typical examples. The results showed that for a given heat load, a three-dimensional graph of the fan power (z-axis), mass flux of air (x-axis, minimum fan power), and inlet water temperature (y-axis, maximum of minimum fan power) showed a saddle configuration. The minimum fan power increased as the heat load increased. The conventionally known fact that the most effective cooling tower operation coincides with a high inlet water temperature and low air flow rate can be replaced by the statement that there exists an optimum mass flux of air corresponding to a minimum fan power for a given inlet water temperature, regardless of the heat load.

Soil vapor extraction (SVE) is an effective and cost efficient method of removing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and petroleum hydrocarbons from unsaturated soils. Incorporating PVDs in an SVE system can extend the effectiveness of SVE to lower permeability soils by shortening the air flow-paths and ultimately expediting contaminant removal. With this approach, the real bounded system is replaced for the purposes of analysis by an imaginary system of infinite areal extent. The boundary conditions for the contaminant remediation model test include constant head and no flow condition. Due to these parallel boundaries conditions, image wells should be developed in order to maintain the condition of no flow across the impermeable boundary. It is also assumed that the flow is drawdown along the constant head boundary condition. The factors contributing to the difference between the theoretical and measured pressure heads were also analyzed. The flow factor increases as the flow rate is increased. The flow rate is the most important factor that affects the difference between the measured and theoretical pressure heads.

In SCRamjet engine, combustion occurs in supersonic flow with airbreathing. SCRamjet is characterized by very short combustion time in combustor, so it is very important to be mixing the air and fuel in short duration. Several methods are suggested for mixing enhancement. Among these, cavity is selected to study for enhancement of mixing. The numerical simulation is performed in the case of freestream Mach number of 2.5 and cavity located in front of fuel jet injection. CFD-Fastran, commercial code with three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation with the Menter SST turbulence model were used. The results are obtained validate experiment results for same condition. Therefore, the numerical results show the mixing enhancement characteristics with a cavity.

Nanomaterials possess unique mechanical, physical, and chemical properties. They are small, and have an ultrahigh surface area, making them suitable for air filter applications. Electrospinning has been recognized as an efficient technique for fabricating polymer nanofibers. In order to determine the optimum manufacturing conditions, the effects of several electrospinning process parameters on the diameter, orientation, and distribution of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber are analyzed. To improve interlaminar fracture toughness and suppress delamination in the form of laminated non-woven fibers by using a heat roller, the performances of filter efficiency and pressure drop achieved with PAN nanofiber air filter are evaluated experimentally.

An experimental study on performance characteristics of an evaporative heat exchanger based on tests for various operating conditions was presented. The heat exchanger maximizes the heat transfer rate per unit volume by applying mini-channels for both the air and coolant flow paths, and minimizes the amount of the coolant by using its latent heat of evaporation. The heat exchanger was manufactured by etching the flow paths, brazing the heat exchange plates, and welding the in/out ports of the media. The basic performance test has confirmed that the heat exchanger met its design requirements, and the results of the map test were analyzed to produce the performance characteristics quantitatively depending on the air inlet temperature, the air flow rate, and the coolant flow rate.

This research aims in finding a more optimal ejector size for evacuating engine exhaust gasses and 20% of the cell cooling air. The remaining 80% of cell cooling air pumped into the test chamber is separately exhausted from the test chamber via a discharge port fitted with flow control valves and vacuum pump. Unlike its predecessor this configuration utilizes a smaller capture area to improve pressure recovery. The modified ejector size has a diameter of 1100mm enough to evacuate 66kg/s jet engine exhaust in addition to about 20%, 24kg/s of the cell cooling air tapped from the sterling chamber. This configurations has an area ratio of the engine exit and ejector inlet of about 1.2. Simulation results of the proposed ejector configuration, indicates improved pressure recovery.
