Improving furnace efficiency is a high priority need for aluminum, glass, steel and other metal casting industries. Oxy-fuel combustion is considered to be one of the most effective method to improve thermal efficiency and reduce $NO_x$, SOx and $CO_2$ emissions for high temperature furnaces. The characteristics of an oxy-fuel flame, in particular its shape, radiation profile and exhaust gas composition are considerably different to those of an air-fuel burner. For this reason, a new approach is needed regarding factors such as burner design, power input levels, number and positioning strategies of burners and also control philosophies. In this paper will discuss the latest developments of high performance oxy-fuel combustion reheating furnace system. This high performance oxy-fuel combustion system will be shown to be technologically superior to other types of combustion systems in the areas of fuel efficiency, emissions and productivity.

Themo-mechanical analysis was carried out using the finite element method for the steel shell of a cupola furnace. When the outer surface of the shell was cooled with water to within the temperature range of 35-80 ℃ during operation of the cupola, the inner surface of the shell was expected to exhibit a temperature of 65-248 ℃ based on heat transfer analysis. The shell was also expected to have an equivalent stress range of 100-280 MPa in the outer surface over the temperature range examined. Upon cooling the shell to obtain an outer surface temperature <80 ℃, the maximum equivalent stress of the shell did not exceed the yield strength. Although the temperature of the outer surface varied between 35 and 80 ℃ periodically due to the cooling control problem, the fatigue stress at the outer surface of the shell was calculated to be within the fatigue strength. During a non-operational period to examine the system between furnace operations, the thermal stress presented in the shell was sufficiently low to reach the desired yield strength and fatigue limit.

An Experimental study was conducted on $CO_2$ recycle combustion heating system using pure oxygen instead of conventional air as an oxidant, which is thereby producing a flue gas of mostly $CO_2$ and water vapor($H_2O$) and resulting in higher $CO_2$ concentration. The advantages of the system are not only the ability to control high temperatures characteristic of oxygen combustion with recycling $CO_2$. but also the possibility to reduce NOx emission in the flue gas. A small scale industrial reheating furnace simulator and specially designed variable flame burner were used to characterize the $CO_2$ recycle oxy-fuel combustion, such as the variations of furnace pressure, temperature and composition in the flue gas during recycle. It was found that $CO_2$ concentration in the flue gas was about 80% without $CO_2$ recycle, but increased to $90{\sim}95%$ with $CO_2$ recycle. The furnace temperature and pressure was decreased due to recycle and the NOx emission was also reduced to maintain under 100ppm.

This paper explained the equipment and process development to secure the source technology of controlled nitrification technology. The nitriding potential in the furnace was controlled only by adjusting the flow rate of ammonia gas introduced into the furnace. In addition, a control system was introduced to automate the nitriding process. The equipment's hardware was designed to enable controlled nitriding based on the conventional gas nitriding furnace, and an automation device was attached. As a result of measuring the temperature and quality uniformity for the equipment, the temperature and compound uniformity were ±1.2℃ and 14.3 ± 0.2 ㎛, respectively. And, it was confirmed that nitriding potential was controlled within the tolerance range of AMS2759-10B standard. In addition to parts for controlled nitriding, it was applied to products produced in existing conventional nitriding furnaces, and as a result, gas consumption was reduced by up to 80%.

본 논문에서는 온도제어에 있어서 수동식 로온도 제어 전문가의 행위와 유사한 결과를 나타낼 수 있도록 퍼지 제어 룰과 퍼지 변수 및 퍼지 추론 등을 이용하여 밸브의 Gas-to-Air 비율을 조절하는 적응 퍼지 제어기를 설계하였다. 이를 적용한 가스로 자동온도조절 시스템을 개발하고 온도와 소결된 세라믹 시료의 불량률 평가를 통해 그 성능이 우수함을 확인하였다. 적응 퍼지 제어를 이용한 제안 시스템의 온도오차의 경우 학습 전은 약 ${\pm}20^{\circ}C$ 이상 생기던 것이 학습 후에는 ${\pm}2^{\circ}C$ 내외로써 입력 온도 프로파일을 우수하게 추종해 냄을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 기존 수동로 시스템과 제안된 시스템 간에 세라믹 제품 소결 후의 불량률을 비교하기 위해 시료 A와 B에 대해 각각 두 번에 걸쳐 실험하였다. 불량률을 확 인한 결과 개선효과가 시료 A와 시료 B에 대해 각각 평균 50.5% 와 48.4%로 상당히 좋아짐을 확인하였다.

용광로는 외피 부분에 내부 내화물의 온도를 낮추기 위하여 냉각수를 공급하는 냉각판 또는 스테이브를 사용하고 있다. 주변 조업 조건의 열악으로 냉각수를 공급하는 배관의 부식으로 냉각수가 내화물에 침투하여 내화물의 수명을 떨어뜨리고, 노황을 악화시키는 원인이 되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 용광로 냉각설비장치에 이상 현상이 발생하였을 때 위치를 정확히 확인함에 따라 신속하게 누수된 부위를 파악하여 대처할 수 있는 기능을 갖춘 냉각관 누수 자동감지장치를 개발하였다. 주된 연구는 전자제어 장치인 마이크로프로세서를 응용한 전자변 제어장치를 이용하여 냉각설비의 파손으로 발생되는 누수현상으로 인한 고열과 분진 일산화탄소 등의 산출로 작업환경의 재해를 자동방지 하고자 하였으며, 작업환경이 친환경적이며 작업의 가치를 재창출할 수 있는 방법들이 연구되고 있다. 용광로 분위기의 일산화탄소 자동 감지장치와 그에 따른 출력신호를 자동 전송하는 무선중계기 장치를 개발함으로 용광로 냉각설비 장치의 분위기 작업환경을 수동방식에서 무인자동화방식으로 개선하였다.

This study was performed to develop a hot water boiler system with small scale automatic rice hull furnace for the multi-purpose use in the farm. For the experiment a prototype hot water boiler system with rice hull furnace was fabricated, which was equipped with automatic hull feeder, igniter and ash removal device. Optimum operational conditions of the prototype: system were analyzed. The results arc summarized as follows. 1. The temperature measured right above the burning surface should be higher than $500^{\circ}C$ combustion. 2. The top zone of the combustion chamber was the most suitable location of the thermocouple to pick up the control temperature for the automatic operation of the rice hull furnace. 3. The content of carbon monoxide in the flue gas was increased with the filling height of burning material but it was less than 0.3 percent in volume in this experiment. When the filling height was expressed as the ratio of rice hull feed rate to the volume of the combustion chamber above the burning surface, the optimum ratio was about $150kg/m^3-h$. 4. The combustion efficiency of the prototype was higher than 95 percent when the feed rate was 1.1 to 2.3 kg/h and moisture content of rice hull was 22.4 percent (w.b.) or less. 5. It was estimated that the optimum operational conditions of the system were 1.3 to 2.0 kg/h in feed rate, 70 to 100 percent in excess air and 500 to $510^{\circ}C$ in control temperature. 6. The efficiency of coil heal exchanger increased with a decrease in feed rate of rice hull. When the rice hull feed rates were 1.1, 1.7 and 2.3 kg/h, the efficiencies of coil heat exchanger were about 34, 30 and 25 percent and heat transfer rates were 5.7, 7.6 and 8.8 MJ/h, respectively. When the flat plate heat exchanger was used in addition to the coil heat exchanger, the efficiency of the heat exchanger system increased to 48 percent.

This paper reports the influence of super retarding agent(SRA) on the setting time of concrete incorporating mineral admixture including fly ash(FA), expansive additive(EA), silica fume(SF), blast furnace slag(BS) and blast furnace slag along with fly ash(BS+FA). An increase in SRA resulted in retarding the setting time of control concrete, while the use of mineral admixture led to a delay of setting time markedly, compared with that of control concrete under no SRA content. Meanwhile, An increase in SRA in concrete with mineral admixture exhibited comparable setting delay with control concrete. Furthermore, in case of the use of BS and SF, acceleration of setting time was observed with increase of SRA content. It is considered that proper dosage of SRA of concrete with SF and BS to secure similar setting delay with control concrete require rather larger than that of control concrete. Accordingly, For concrete with mineral admixture, in order to decide the proper dosage of SRA, application of correction factors is needed.
