Recently energy crisis and environmental pollution using fossil fuel became social issue. The Fuel Cell, one of the new and renewable energy has great advantage for the former mentioned problems. The PEM Fuel Cell needs highly purified hydrogen for fuel, in many cases CH4 was reformed to H2 basically using steam reforming. The purpose of this paper is to understand the probability of ceramic honeycomb to apply the combustor of STR. We tested the heat accumulation performance of ceramic honeycomb by change of excess air ratio. The results were suitable for our purpose and also these results can be used to make high temperature air at mild combustion field.

Heat regenerator attached in small-scale regenerative radiant tube burner was designed using the theoretical computation code and was confirmed the performance of waste heat recovery ratio. From the computation, when ceramic ball of 4-5kg was used, temperature efficiency and available waste heat recovery ratio were predicted 80% and 70%, respectively. Similar efficiencies were obtained from the experiments using LPG. However, since exhaust gas temperature entered into regenerator was below 850$^{\circ}C$ which was moth lower than that we expected. air preheating temperature was lowered below 800$^{\circ}C$.

Heat regenerator occupied by regenerative materials improves thermal efficiency of regenerative combustion system through the recovery of sensible heat of exhaust gases. By using one-dimensional two-phase fluid dynamics model, the unsteady thermal flow of regenerators with spherical particles were numerically analyzed to evaluate performance of ratio of waste heat recovery and temperature efficiency and to suggest optimized conditions of heat regenerator. It is predicted that exhaust gases temperature at regenerator outlet of 3.5$\times$10$^{6}$ kcal/hr heat regenerator is even lower than design condition and ratio of waste heat recovery is 75.8％.

Non-used waste heat has recently been paid special attention due to several global warming regulation and energy cost rising. In this study, therefore, thermal energy storage system which uses a solid type heat media has been investigated about the possibility of heat accumulation and heat release for thermal energy storage system. 35kWh of bench-scale thermal storage system was used to investigate the characteristics of the solid type heat media. From the result, it is shown that a solid type heat media should be divided to supply constant heat to the customers' side. It is also shown the flow direction should be considered to reduce temperature difference between top and bottom sides in the thermal storage system.

Solar simulator를 이용한 메탄의 수증기 개질은 집광된 태양에너지를 이용하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 태양열에너지의 화학적 축열을 실시하기 위해 Solar Simulator를 이용한 메탄의 수증기 개질을 연구하였다. 태양열 모사 램프로 1.2kW급 Xenon-arc lamp를 사용하였다. 반응기는 앞면의 Quartz Window와 촉매지지층으로 구성되어 있다. 램프의 빛은 Quartz Window를 통하여 촉매층에 직접적으로 방사되고, 방사된 빛으로 촉매지지층에서 흡열반응이 일어난다.메탄의 수증기개질 반응은 고온에서 일어나기 때문에 촉매지지체를 열에 강한 SiC로 만들어진 Ceramic foam을 사용하였다. 이 촉매지지체에 촉매를 Wash-coat하여 사용하였으며, 담지된 촉매는 Ni을 활성성분으로 하는 ICI 46-6을 사용하였다. 반응기는 318 SUS 재질로 제작되었으며, 반응기 외부는 Insulation을 하여 열손실을 감소시켰다. 실험은 온도와 공간속도에 따른 Solar Steam reforming의 반응특성을 분석하였다.

Firing characteristics, transverse rupture strength, and heat capacity were studied of the heat-reservoir refractory materials made of red-firing clay, mill scale, and water glass. The firing shrinkage increased with increase of the clay proportion in samples. The volume of fired bodies showed shrinkage by drying up to $300^{\circ}C$, steady expansion in the 300-$700^{\circ}C$ range due to phase transition of iron oxides. and drastic expansion above $1200^{\circ}C$. Flexural strength decreased from 5.6 Mpa to 2.35 Mpa with the decrease of the ratio of clay to mill scale from 1:1 to 1:3 Heat capacities changed from 1.1 Joul/g$^{\circ}$C to 1.35 Joul/g$^{\circ}$C with the ratio of millscale to clay ratio from 1:1 to 1:3. Mill scale in the specimen appears to exist as liquid phase during firing. Firing the specimens in air leads to the eruption of the molten mill scale to the sample surfaces. Contrarily, firing samples in a refractory sagger with a cover suppressed the eruption of the molten mill scale to the surfaces. The addition of mill scale gave rise to porous sintered bodies which would delay cooling rates of heat-reservoir brick.

Storage materials for a minimized storage system should be able to store much energy in small quantities, and to solve such a problem, salt hydrates such as CALCIUM CHLORIDE, SODIUM SULFATE, SODIUM PHOSPHATE etc. were considered as most suitable storage media in which phase change phenomena take place at low temperature. Therefore those salt hydrates were used as storage media in this study, and piped-storage tanks were manufactured vertically for the experiment. The characteristics of thermal storage media were investigated and the results are summarized as follows: 1. From the experiment of radial temperature distribution of vertical piped-storage system, the latent heat phenomenon did not occur in all storage media during heating process because of generations of heat due to the reduction in the number of water molecules. However, among those storage media CALCIUM CHLORIDE had most remarkable latent heat phenomenon during cooling process. Therefore CALCIUM CHLORIDE was considered as most suitable storage media. 2. Heat quantity transferred to the storage media was the largest in case of CALCIUM CHOLORIDE under the same conditions during heating and cooling process.

The IIS(Internal Insulation System) is applied in most Korean apartment buildings which are the most common type of residential buildings. Consequently, there are many cases in which the layer of insulation is disconnected by the structural components at the wall-slab and wall-wall joints in the envelope. These joints become thermal bridges where the risk of heat loss increases. It is expected that the EIFS(External Insulation and Finish System) is the solution to this problem. In this study, annual heating and cooling loads of apartment buildings with IIS and EIFS were compared using Design Builder program in order to evaluate the thermal storage effect of EIFS where the concrete thermal mass is located inside of the insulation material. As results, the apartment building with EIFS could reduce annual heating and cooling loads by 2.4% and 4.1%, respectively.
