차세대 연료전지인 용융탄산염 연료전지의 운전조건을 확립하기 위하여 운전변수와 단위전지 성능과의 관계를 살표보았다. 용융탄산염 연료전지에 산화제로 공기를 사용하는 경우 양극가스에 질소가 포함된다. 그리고 연료전지의 작동압력을 높이면 출력을 크게 할 수 있다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 에너지 및 물질수지를 이용하여 양극가스내 질소 조성과 작동압력 변화에 따른 전지내의 온도분포 및 성능변화를 구하였다. 본 연구팀이 이미 발표한 용융탄산염 단위 연료전지의 전류밀도의 온도분포를 구하기 위한 수치모사가 이용되었다. 가스흐름의 형태는 십자류를 선택하였다. 양극가스내 질소의 영향은 냉각효과로 나타났다. 작동압력이 증가할수록 전지의 성능은 증가하였고, 기전력[mV]변화 대 압력[atm]의 상용대수값의 변화(즉, ΔV 대 Δ(log))의 1차함수 그래프 기울기는 79.9로 문헌상의 실험치와 유사하게 나타났다.

Explosive bolts are reliable and efficient mechanical fastening devices having the special feature of a built-in release. The disadvantage of explosive bolt lies in that it is based on the high explosive effect of a pyrotechnic charge. The aim of the present work is to propose a pyrotechnically releasable mechanical linking device for two mechanical elements that does not suffer from such drawbacks. The pyro-lock using the pressure cartridge has the release characteristic without fragmentation and minimum pyro-shock. The present work is focused on the design, the interpretation of structure, the separation mechanism, separation force, and the results of various tests.

A numerical study was performed to observe the relation between internal flow characteristics and operating temperatures in a Lapple cyclone. The present numerical results agree reasonably well with previous experimental and numerical results. As the operating temperature increases, the pressure drop decreases due to decrease of wall shear stress and tangential velocities. A detailed comparison of pressure drops in the cyclone between theoretical prediction models and the present numerical simulations is also presented for wide range of operating temperatures.

In this study, the pressurization characteristics of the small piezoelectric hydraulic pump for a brake system has been analyzed through modeling the full hydraulic pump components; the pump chamber, check valve, pump load, pump drive controller etc. To analyze the pressurization characteristics, the process of charging pressure in the chamber with stacked-layer piezoelectric actuator were firstly modeled. Secondly, the flow coefficient of the check valve in terms of valve opening has been calculated after computational fluid dynamics analysis, such as the pressure distribution around check valve and the flow rate, was conducted. Also the pump driving controller, which controls the input voltage to the actuator, was designed to make the load pressure follow the input pressure command. The simulation results find that it takes about 0.03ms to reach the operating load pressure required for the braking system. The simulation result was also verified through comparison to the result of the pump performance test.

Numerical analysis of a gaseous jet injected into a closed nozzle was carried out considering the valve operation to simulate the interior pressure development of closed nozzle. Pressure data was obtained through valve operation and we compared numerical analysis with experiment data. Commercial code was used for the present calculation. Numerical results of a pressure development since its start showed good agreement for experiment data of the nozzle operation.

Theoretical and numerical approaches were conducted in order to study supersonic exhaust diffusers to simulate high altitude performance of rockets on the ground. A physical model of concern includes a rocket motor, vacuum chamber, and diffuser, which have axisymmetric configurations. An analysis was conducted to investigate operation characteristics of supersonic exhaust diffusers from a flow-development point of view. Emphasis was placed on theoretical formulation to predict the starting pressure of diffusers, the effect of the vacuum chamber size, and the minimum starting pressure of the rocket motor to start the diffuser.

본 연구에서는 수치모사로 부터 단위 전지 양극가스내 질소 조성과 각 가스의 순환에 따른 단위전지내의 온도분포 및 성능변화를 구하였다. 양극가스내 질소의 영향은 냉각효과로 나타났고 순환비가 증가할수록 전지내의 온도와 전지의 성능은 감소하였다. 작동압력이 증가할수록 전지의 성능은 증가하였고, 기전력변화 대 압력의 상용대수변화의 직선의 기울기는 문헌상의 실험치와 유사하게 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 미세 물분무 노즐의 소화성능을 분석하기 위해 유량계수, 방사거리, 방사각도, 그리고 작동압력에 따라 분사되는 물입자 크기를 측정하였다. 이를 위해서 이중 구조의 미세 물분무 노즐 LPN-61과 LPN-63을 제작하였으며, 미분무 소화설비를 구성하여 이중구조 노즐의 형상에 따라서 유동특성을 정량화하였다. 그 결과 LPN-61은 유량계수 5.116, 방사각 $120^{\circ}{\sim}125^{\circ}$로 작동압력이 $4kgf/cm^2$에서 $10kgf/cm^2$까지 증가함에 따라서 SMD는 $127{\mu}m$정도에서 $88{\mu}m$까지 입자 크기가 감소하였으며, LPN-63은 유량계수 5.121, 방사각도 $120^{\circ}{\sim}125^{\circ}$로 동일한 작동압력 범위에서 SMD는 $108{\mu}m$에서 $80{\mu}m$까지 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

This study presents a comparative thermodynamic analysis of subcritical and transcritical organic Rankine cycles for the recovery of low-temperature heat sources considering nine substances as the working fluids. The effects of the turbine inlet pressure, source temperature, and working fluid on system performance were all investigated with respect to metrics such as the temperature distribution of the fluids and pinch point in the heat exchanger, mass flow rate, and net power production, as well as the thermal efficiency. Results show that as the turbine inlet pressure increases from the subcritical to the supercritical range, the mismatch between hot and cold streams in the heat exchanger decreases, and the net power production and thermal efficiency increase; however, the turbine size per unit power production decreases.
