연료 경제와 유해 배출 가스 저감을 목적으로 최근 들어 LNG 또는 합성 가스를 사용하는 박용 가스 기관이 주목받고 있다. 예혼합 연소를 하는 오토 사이클로 작동하는 가스 기관을 구현할 경우 EGR 또는 SCR을 적용하지 않고도 Tier III의 규제를 충족할 수 있는 것으로 확인되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 오토 사이클로 작동하는 기관에 대한 시뮬레이션 기술을 산업 기술 현장에 제공하기 위한 목적으로, 실험적으로 접근이 용이한 소형 가솔린 기관을 대상으로 상용 소프트웨어인 BOOST를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 시행하였다. 이 연구는 두 단계로 구성되어 이미 시행한 첫 번째 단계에서는 흡기 및 배기 계통에 대한 최적의 모델링 방법에 관한 연구가 수행되었다. 이번 연구는 이전의 연구에서 선정된 흡 배기 계통의 해석 모델을 적용한 상황에서 실린더 내 과정을 해석하고 최종적으로 주요 성능 인자들을 계산하는 방법을 정립하였다. 이 연구를 통하여 실험에의 의존이 적은 연소 및 열전달 모델과 밸브 유량계수 모델을 선정하고 관련 상수들을 결정하는 방법을 확립하였다. 이들을 이용하여 실린더로 유입되는 공기량, 실린더 내 순간 압력 변화 및 도시평균유효압력을 효과적으로 예측할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A gasification process with pre-combustion $CO_2$ capture process, which converts coal into environment-friendly synthetic gas, might be promising option for sustainable energy conversion. In the coal gasification for power generation, coal is converted into $H_2$, CO and $CO_2$. To reduce the cost of $CO_2$ capture and to maximize hydrogen production, the removal of CO and the additional production of hydrogen might be needed. In this study, a 2l/min water gas shift system for a coal gasifier has been studied. To control the concentration of major components such as $H_2$, CO, and $CO_2$, MFCs were used in experimental apparatus. The gas concentration in these experiments was equal with syngas concentration from dry coal gasifiers ($H_2$: 25-35, CO: 60-65, $CO_2$: 5-15 vol%). The operation conditions of the WGS system were $200-400^{\circ}C$, 1-10bar. Steam/Carbon ratios were between 2.0 and 5.0. The commercial catalysts were used in the high temperature shift reactor and the low temperature shift reactor. As steam/carbon ratio increased, the conversion (1-$CO_{out}/CO_{in}$) increased from 93% to 97% at the condition of CO: 65, $H_2$: 30, $CO_2$: 5%. However the conversion decreased with increasing of gas flow and temperature. The gas concentration from LTS was $H_2$: 54.7-60.0, $CO_2$: 38.8-44.9, CO: 0.3-1%.

Experimental and numerical studies were conducted to investigate flame behaviors near flammable limits for downstream-interacting SNG-air premixed flames in a counter-flow configuration. The SNG fuel consisted of a methane, a propane, and a hydrogen with volumetric ratios of 91, 6, and 3%, respectively. The most appropriate priority for some reliable reaction mechanisms examined was given to the mechanism of UC San diego via comparison of lean extinction limits attained numerically with experimental ones. Flame stability map was presented with a functional dependencies of lower and upper methane concentrations in terms of global strain rate. The results show that, at the global strain rate of $30s^{-1}$, lean extinction boundary is slanted while rich extinction one is relatively less inclined because of the dependency of such extinction boundary shapes on deficient reactant Lewis number governed by methane mainly. Further increase of global strain rate forces both extinction boundaries to be more slanted and to be shrunk, resulting in an island of extinction boundary and subsequently one flame extinction limit. Extinction mechanisms for lean and rich, symmetric and asymmetric extinction boundary were identified and discussed via heat losses and chemical interaction.

In this study, syngas laminar burning velocities with various hydrogen contents were studied using both experimental measurements and kinetic simulations. The laminar burning velocities were measured by the angle method of Bunsen flame configuration and the numerical calculations including burning velocities were made using CHEMKIN Package with USC-Mech II. A large range of syngas mixture compositions such as 10:90%, 25:75%, 50:50%, 75:25% and equivalence ratio from lean condition of 0.5 to rich condition of 5.0 have been conducted. The experimental results of burning velocity were in good agreement with previous other research data and numerical simulation. Also, it was shown that the experimental measurements of laminar burning velocity linearly increased with the increasing of $H_2$ content although the flame speed of hydrogen is faster about ten times than carbon monoxide. This phenomenon is attributed to the rapid production of the hydrogen related radicals such as H and OH at the early stage of combustion, which is confirmed the linear increasing of radical concentrations on kinetic simulation.

Syngas, also known as synthesis gas, synthetic gas, or producer gas, is a combustible gas mixture generated when organic material (biomass) is heated in a gasifier with a limited airflow at a high temperature and elevated pressure. The present research was aimed at modifying the existing LPG engine generator for fully operated syngas. During this study, the designed gasifier-powered woodchip biomass was used for syngas production to generate power. A 6.0 kW LPG engine generator was modified and tested for operation on syngas. In the experiments, syngas and LPG fuels were tested as test fuels. For syngas production, 3 kg of dry woodchips were fed and burnt into the designed downdraft gasifier. The gasifier was connected to a blower coupled with a slider to help the air supply and control the ignition. The convection cooling system was connected to the syngas flow pipe for cooling the hot produce gas and filtering the impurities. For engine modification, a customized T-shaped flexible air/fuel mixture control device was designed for adjusting the correct stoichiometric air-fuel ratio ranging between 1:1.1 and 1.3 to match the combustion needs of the engine. The composition of produced syngas was analyzed using a gas analyzer and its composition was; 13~15 %, 10.2~13 %, 4.1~4.5 %, and 11.9~14.6 % for CO, H₂, CH₄, and CO₂ respectively with a heating value range of 4.12~5.01 MJ/Nm³. The maximum peak power output generated from syngas and LPG was recorded using a clamp-on power meter and found to be 3,689 watts and 5,001 watts, respectively. The results found from the experiment show that the LPG engine generator operated on syngas can be adopted with a de-ration rate of 73.78 % compared to its regular operating fuel.

A combined experimental and numerical study has been conducted to investigate the downstream interaction between simulated SNG-air premixed flames in fuel composition of 91% $CH_4$ + 6% $C_3H_8$ + 3% $H_2$. In this study, the effects of fuel molar concentration(lean-rich) and strain rate($a_g$) were major parameters. A main focus is to investigate flames behavior and chemical interaction at flames downstream. The numerical results were calculated by OPPDIF application. The reaction mechanism adopted was USC-II model including C3 reaction.

석탄을 개질한 합성천연가스의 조성에 변화가 있을 경우 화염의 연소특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 동축 공기 합성천연가스 확산화염을 구현하여 연료조성에 따른 화염안정성과 화염구조, 분광특성, 온도분포를 실험적인 방법으로 연구하는 것이다. 각 화염의 분광특성을 관찰하기 위하여 분광기를 사용하였으며 연소장 내 온도측정을 위하여 K 형 열전대를 사용하였다. 연료 분사기 출구속도는 $u_F$ =5~40 m/s 사이에서 조절하였고 공기 분사기 출구속도는 $u_A$ =0~0.43 m/s 사이에서 조절하였다. 연소 동특성에 대한 실험을 통해 합성천연가스에 수소 성분이 증가하면 화염안정화 영역이 증가하고 부상화염 높이가 낮아져 화염길이가 짧아지는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Using SHS(Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis) method, the optimum synthetic condition of titanium carbonitride was established by controlling the parameters such as relative density of mixture (Ti+C), nitrogen pressure, additive amounts of titanium hydride(TiH1.924) and protecting heat loss. Under 1 atm nitrogen pressure, nitridation ratio with changing relative density of the sample compacts has a maximum (87.2%) at about 55%, and in the case of enveloping the pellet with a quartz tube, the highest nitridation ratio of 90% was obtained at about 68%. At relative density of 55%, nitridation ratio with the nitrogen pressure has a miximum (87.3%) at 7 atm. As the amounts of additive titanium hydride increased, nitridation ratio decreased at below 7 atm nitrogen pressure and, increased at above this pressure until percent of addition percent reached 15 wt% and decreased abruptly upon futher increases in titanium hydride. In the synthesis of TiCxNy by combustion reaction, heat transfer from combustion zone to preheating zone and nitrogen gas penetration into the compact were found to be important factors affecting the TiCxNy formation. It was difficult to obtain high nitridation ratio when the conbustion temperature was either too high or too low, and it seems that the retention of high temperature after a combustion wave sweeped through the reactant mixture pellet is critical to obtain a satisfactory nitridation ratio.

대체천연가스(SNG)는 에너지 안보 차원에서 에너지 수급 안정화 방안의 하나로 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 또한 HCNG (또는 $H_2CNG$)는 배기가스 내의 유해 성분을 현저히 줄이고 열효율도 높일 수 있어서 내연기관이나 가정용 연료로 사용될 것으로 기대되고 있다. 그러나 SNG나 HCNG에 포함되어 있는 수소는 재료에 침투하여 그 재료의 역학적 특성을 크게 저하시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 SNG나 HCNG를 안전하고 효율적으로 수송 공급하려면 이를 위해 운용되는 인프라의 안전성과 신뢰성 확보가 선결되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 중공 시험편을 이용한 인장시험법을 통하여 CNG 저장용기용 저합금강이 나타내는 고압 수소 분위기에서의 인장 특성 변화에 대하여 조사하였다.
