This paper presents the development of a Gas Valve Train (GVT) control system which is the core equipment of LNG fueled vessels. Due to the increasing worldwide demand for echo friendly green ship products, domestic companies urgently require to develop a core equipments for the LNG fueled vessels to secure worldwide markets in marine engineering. A LNG fueled engine generally equips the GVT, a fuel supply system that steadily supplies clean high-pressure LNG to the engine. The GVT requires a safety operational control system that can prevent any gas leakage accident, and a system that monitors operation status in real time. Therefore, we introduces a development for GVT control and monitoring system design and the design was systematically performed by means of functional analysis and differentiation of foreign advanced products.

LNG is a valuable fuel since it offers some environmental, energy security and economic benefits over diesel. It could be used mainly in heavy-duty trucks and buses. Car acceleration induces the slope angle of the liquid fuel in the tank. Slope angle changes the surface area wetted by liquid fuel and consequently heat leak to the tank. This research is a result of numerical simulation of the heat leak with the car acceleration to LNG tank. The "Pro-HeatLeak" Fortran program is developed and the verification test of the developed program is done. The difference between numerical results and calculated results from MathCad verification test is less than 0.07 percent. The smallest heat leak is correspond to the case without oscillation. For the high car acceleration the value of heat leak is greater than that for the small acceleration. The difference between maximum and minimum heat leak for 10 gallons of fuel vapor in the tank is about 10 percent.

Restrictions on the emissions of nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon dioxide, and particulate matter from marine engines are being tightened. Each of these emissions requires different reduction technologies, which are costly and require many pieces of equipment to meet the requirements. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel has a great advantage in reducing harmful emissions emitted from ships. Therefore, the marine engine application of LNG fuel is significantly increasing in new ship buildings. Accordingly, this study analyzed the internal support structure, insulation type, and fuel supply piping system of a 35 m3 International Maritime Organization C type pressurized storage tank of an LNG-fueled ship. Analysis of the heat transfer characteristics revealed that A304L stainless steel has a lower heat flux than A553 nickel steel, but the effect is not significant. The heat flux of pearlite insulation is much lower than that of vacuum insulation. Moreover, the analysis results of the constraint method of the support ring showed no significant difference. A553 steel containing 9% nickel has a higher strength and lower coefficient of thermal expansion than A304L, making it a suitable material for cryogenic containers.

Due to the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) environmental regulations on NOx and SOx, LNG-fueled eco-friendly ships are gaining attention worldwide, and various eco-friendly ships are being proposed and demanded for conversion to eco-friendly ships in Korea, as the eco-friendly ship law has recently been enforced. In this study, the initial basic design was performed to convert an existing Marine Gas Oil (MGO) fueled ship into an LNG-DF propulsion ship, targeting medium-sized ship, to select the fuel tank capacity and main dimensions and appropriate fuel ratio between the two fuels. In particular, Sustainable basic design method considering environmental impact were proposed by performing a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) throughout the design process, and various design options were compared and analyzed to meet different design conditions by applying them.

The LNG carriers have been propelled by steam turbines and the LNG boil-off(BOG) has been used as fuel or vented. However, as the alternative propulsion systems such as diesel engines are being equipped on the LNG carriers for better fuel efficiency, a need for the LNG BOG re-liquefaction system that liquefies the BOG and sends the liquid BOG back to the LNG cargo has arisen in recent years. This study investigates the design of the BOG re-liquefaction system based on the reverse Brayton refrigeration cycle. The thermodynamic and heat exchanger analysis are carried out and the limitations to the system performance are discussed.

본 연구에서 차량 탑재용 LNG 연료 탱크의 단열 성능과 연료 공급 능력 등을 예측하기 위하여, 내조와 외조 사이가 진공 단열된 2중 벽 구조이며 탱크 용량은 450$\ell$, 정상 운전조건은 800 kPa인 연료 탱크를 해석 대상으로 선택했으며, LNG의 물성치는 메탄($CH_4$)과 동일하다고 가정했다. 밀폐 저장기간의 연장을 위하여, 차폐 관을 제시했고 기존의 연료 탱크 저장 기간과 비교 해석했다. 또한 기관으로의 적절한 연료량 공급을 보장할 수 있는 탱크 내의 압력 유지를 위하여, 외부로부터 추가적인 열전달률을 예측했다. 이러한 계산을 위하여 압력 변화율과 전열률, 연료 출입률 간의 열역학 관계식을 유도했고, 선택한 연료 탱크 모델로부터 열저항을 근거한 계산식을 설정했다. 계산 결과에 의하면, 차폐된 관을 사용한 연료 탱크는 약 25~30% 이상의 저장기간이 연장되었고, 연료 압송 최소압력 유지를 위하여 외부에서 탱크로 공급되는 열전달에 적합한 운전조건도 결정할 수 있었다.

LNG has significant advantages in regard to environmental aspects comparing with conventional fuel oil. In fact, it is estimated that NOx and SOx emission can be reduced by about 90% and 100%, respectively in case of using LNG as a fuel. LNG-fuelled ship has been considered to be the best option both from an environmental and an economic point of view. Along with these trends, some major shipyards and Classification Societies have started to carry out the risk-based system design for LNG-fuelled ship such as passenger ship, platform supply vessel and large container vessel etc. However, new conceptual gas fuelled ship has high risk level compared with vessel using traditional crude oil especially in view of gas explosion accident. Therefore safety area where installed fuel gas supply system is required risk based system design with special considerations. On this paper, the entire process necessary for the quantitative risk analysis was explained to meet the satisfactory safety level of gas fuelled ship.

LNG차량용 초저온 연료탱크의 진동내구성을 검증하기 위해, 고유 진동수를 산출하여 공진여부를 점검하였으며, 진동시험을 수행하였다. 진동시험은 3가지의 양상으로 실시되었는데, 첫째는 초기 가진 주파수를 31.9Hz로 하고, 가진 주파수를 서서히 감소시키면서 시험을 수행하였는데, 가진 주파수가 22.1Hz일 때 파손이 발생하였다. 두 번째는 정지 상태에서 주파수를 증가시키면서 시험을 수행하였는데, 12.7 Hz의 가진 주파수에서 파손이 발생하였고, 질소 가스의 배출이 감지되었다. 세 번째 시험은 가진 주파수를 불규칙하게 연속적으로 변화시키면서 수행하였는데, 가진 주파수가 8 Hz에서 19.3 Hz사이에 있을 때에 진동 포트가 파손되었다. 본 연구에서 감지된 연료탱크의 파손 현상과 진동시험 연구결과가 LNG차량용 초저온 연료탱크의 안전성 제고에 고려되기를 기대한다.
