In this work a numerical study to find the characteristics of the internal flow and mixing process has been conducted in a static mixer used in the system of catalytic combustor of the fuel cell power plant. After introducing the model description and final governing equations the present numerical approach is applied to the analysis of static mixer, which may have one or more helical elements inside the circular tube by changing such various parameters as incoming mass flow rates and the number of helical elements. The results show that although the static mixer is efficient in mixing fuel and air, more optimization processes are required to achieve the appropriate mixing characteristics in front of the honeycomb type catalytic combustor used in the MCFC power plant

The effects of combustion parameters on the characteristics of a steam-methane reformer. The reformer system was numerically simulated using a simplified two-dimensional axisymmetric model domain with an appropriate user-defined function. The fuel ratio, defined as the ratio of methane flow rate in the combustor to that in the reactor, was varied from 20 to 80%. The equivalence ratio was changed from 0.5 to 1.0. The results indicated that as the fuel ratio increased, the production rates of hydrogen and carbon monoxide increased, although their rates of increase diminished. In fact, at the highest heat supply rates, hydrogen production was actually slightly decreased. Simulations showed that equivalence ratio of 0.7 yielded the highest steam-methane mixture temperature despite a 43% higher air flow rate than the stoichiometric flow rate. This means that the production of hydrogen and carbon monoxide can be increased by adjusting the equivalence ratio, especially when the heat supply is insufficient.

Since a gas turbine is still a significant contributor to peak time, it is very important to tune the gains of P. I. D to get a maximum power and stability within permissible limits. In the gas turbine, the main control loop must adjust the fuel flow to ensure the correct output power and frequency. but it is not easy, because the control loop is composed of many subsystems. In this paper we acquire a transfer function based on the operations data of Gun-san gas turbine and study to apply a loop compensation type 2-DOF PID controller tuning by neural-network to control loop of gas turbine to reduce phenomena caused by integral and derivative actions through simulation. We obtained satisfactory results to disturbances of subcontrol loop such as, fuel flow, air flow, turbine extraction temperature.

ORVR filler neck check valve, which is one of the essential components of the vapor fuel control system, should diminish the evaporation by maintaining laminar fluid flow on refueling process. This study presents numerical. results of pressure and velocity distributions of the fluid flow in a ORVR filler neck check valve on refueling process. CFD-ACE+ has been employed for numerical analysis based on the information of experimental results of valve position as a function of inlet flow rate. No abrupt pressure change, which may causes vaporization of fuel, has been confirmed to take place on the concave surface of the valve spool. However, it is clear that some possibility exist at the mid-position of surface of valve spool and downstream according to the opening of valve.

This paper presents results of test for combustion vibration in the pilot furnace for fossil power plant under combustion test. We measured static pressure variation in the pilot furnace together with air and fuel flow. From test results, it shows that vibration magnitude is affected by air and fuel flow. Also, a finite element analysis using a commercial S/W is performed to calculate acoustic mode of the pilot furnace. These results show that dominant frequency occurred is related to acoustic natural frequency of furnace. After this, it needs to be studied the relation between dominant frequency of combustion vibration and air flow rate.

Pyrolytic carbon layer was coated on A1203 balls by fluidized bed type chemical vapour deposition unit to develop the coating technology for the preparation of coated nuclear fuel. The deposition was carried out at the temperature ranges between 110$0^{\circ}C$ and 130$0^{\circ}C$ with various gas contents and flow rates. Source and carrier gas were propane and argon, respectively. X-ray analysis shows that the deposition layer was typical carbon spectra. The growth rate of carbon layer depended on the amount of source gas and the deposition temperature. For the alumina balls with 2mm in diameter, the deposition rate was 11${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/hr in the flow gases containing 30% source gas at 130$0^{\circ}C$ with a total flow rate of 2.0$\ell$/min. Microstructural observation of the deposits with scanning electron microscope revealed that the deposits had relatively dense and isotropic structure. Chemical analysis by energy dispersive spectroscopy showed that the layer was pure carbon.

본 연구에서는 엔진 나셀 화재를 모사하고 이전의 실험결과를 보충하기위해 이차원 둔각물체 주위의 반응유동장에 대하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. Direct numerical simulation (DNS) 기반의 fire dynamic simulator (FDS)를 이용하여 반응유동장의 특성을 조사하였고, 실험결과와의 비교를 통해 화학반응식을 결정하였다. 산화제는 공기를 사용하였고, 연료는 메탄을 사용하였다. 동축류와 대향류 분사 모두의 경우에 화염의 안정성이나 모양은 둔각물체 주위의 와 강도와 크기에 크게 영향을 받았다. 동축류 분사의 경우 계산에 통한 화염소화한계를 결정하였는데 연료유속이 커질수록 공기의 유속 또한 커지는 경향이 있었고, 그 속도들 또한 기존의 실험결과와 잘 일치함을 볼 수 있었다. 유동장 특성에 대한 화학반응의 효과를 고찰하기 위해 반응이 없는 경우를 계산하여 비교하였다. 모든 경우에 비반응 유동장에 비해 반응 유동장의 후류와는 크기도 감소하고 세기도 감소함을 볼 수 있었는데 이는 반응에 의한 후류의 온도증가가 유체의 밀도 및 모멘텀을 감소시켰기 때문으로 판단된다.

공기부양 펌프는 액체 내 공기부양 효과에 의해 양수 조작이 어려운 액체 및 액체 내의 침전물을 손상 없이 토출할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 장점을 이용하여 DCFC(Direct Carbon Fuel Cell)에서 고온의 용융된 연료를 혼합 및 순환시키기 위해 공기부양 펌프를 적용할 수 있다. 이를 위한 연구의 일환으로 공기부양 특성을 파악하기 위한 기초 실험을 수행하였다. 본 실험에서는 공기부양 펌프 시스템을 구축하여 저수통 내에 모사 액체로 물을 채우고 관(tube)을 삽입한 후, 관 하단부에 가스유량을 공급하여 상단부의 토출유량을 측정하였다. 설계 인자로서 관직경과 잠수비를 변경하면서 이에 맞는 공기유량을 공급하였고, 정해진 각 조건에서 생성된 관 내부의 기포(bubble) 형상을 디지털 카메라로 촬영, 그 형상을 네 단계로 구분하였다. 펌프의 성능을 이론식을 모델링하여 실험 데이터와 비교하였고, 토출 유량을 측정하여 물이 토출되는 시작점인 가스유량과 전체 유량비와의 상관관계를 분석하였다.

Surface floating air cathode microbial fuel cell (MFC) having horizontal flow was developed for the application of MFC technology. RVC (Reticulated vitreous carbon) coated with anyline was used as anode electrode and carbon cloth coated with Pt (5.0 g Pt/$m^2$, GDE LT250EW, E-TEK) was used as cathode electrode. As results of continuous operation with changing the flow rate from 4.3 mL/min to 9.5 mL/min, maximum power density of 4.5 W/$m^3$ was acquired at 5.4 mL/min, which was at 0.35 m/hr of flow velocity under anode electrode. When the ratio of cathode surface area to anode surface area($A_c/A_a$) was changed to 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25, the maximum power density of 2.7 W/$m^3$ was shown at the ratio of 1.0. As the ratio decreased from 1.0 to 0.25, the power density also decreased, which is caused by increasing the internal resistance resulted from reducing the surface area to contact with oxygen. Actually, internal resistances of the ratio of 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25 were 63.75${\Omega}$, 142.18${\Omega}$, and 206.12${\Omega}$, respectively.

바이오디젤(BD)은 식물성 오일 또는 동물성 지방과 같이 재생산 가능한 원료로부터 유래된 긴 사슬 지방산의 단일 알킬에스테르로, 디젤연료에 비해 낮은 온도에서 연료특성이 열악한 것으로 알려져 있다. 디젤연료의 경우, 많은 저온 유동성 향상제가 개발되어 있지만 바이오 디젤은 디젤연료와 주요 구성성분이 다르기 때문에 디젤연료용 저온 유동성 향상제를 바이오디젤에 사용 시 저온 유동성 향상에 한계가 따른다. 이에 본 연구는 동절기에 바이오디젤의 저온 특성을 향상시키고자 에스테르 반응으로 합성한 알킬 메타크릴레이트 단량체(Stearyl methacrylate, Lauryl methacrylate)와 무수말레인산을 이용하여 저온 유동성 향상제를 합성하였고, 알킬아민을 이용한 개환 반응을 실시하였다. 이렇게 합성된 저온 유동성 향상제를 $^1H-NMR$ 및 FT-IR을 통해 분석하였으며, GPC로 분자량을 측정한 후 SoybeanBD와 PalmBD에 1000~10000 ppm의 농도로 첨가하여 저온특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 SoybeanBD에 LMA2SMA6MA2-C8A 공중합체 첨가 시 유동점이 $12.5\;^{\circ}C$ 강하됨을 확인하였다.
