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.

There are many difficulties in realizing Ultra-micro gas turbine system. Among them, the effects of tip clearance upon the micro turbine flowfield are discussed in this paper. The flowfield was investigated numerically with the Reynolds-averaged three-dimensional thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations. Calculations were conducted with clearance height from 0％ to 10% of the passage height. Leakage mass flow and deterioration of efficiency are proportional to the clearance height for the clearance height larger than 4%. However, in the case of 2% clearance, leakage flow is significantly reduced due to relative motion of the casing and as a result deterioration of efficiency is very small. It is difficult to control tip clearance in micro turbines, but the results of this study indicate that if the clearance height is controlled within a few per-cent of passage height, deterioration of stage performance will be small.

It is very important in the navy operation to forecast and allocate appropriate petroleum requirements of a certain class of ships for the next year. The amount of petroleum requirements is very much dependent on the number of operating and training days or the running time of the main engine and the gas turbine of the ship. Two regression models were estimated and analyzed from real data obtained from several ships operated during the past three years. Finally, the amount of petroleum requirements that a ship is expected to spend for the next year can be estimated by using this estimated regression model based on operating hours of main engines and gas turbines of the ship.

LNG선의 건조 동향을 보면 2003년을 기점으로 하여 기하급수적으로 증가하기 시작 하였으며, 2008년을 기점으로 하여 그 건조량은 감소하는 추세이나 건조 선박 중 많은 부분이 재액화 시스템이 장착된 대형 LNG선박으로 대형 LNG선은 216K급의 Q-Flex급, 260K급의 Q-Max급이 주를 이루고 있다. 이러한 LNG선박의 대형화는 LNG선의 화물창 보온 설계 기준인 BOR(Boil Off Rate) 0.15%를 기준해서 상대적으로 많은 양의 BOG가 발생하게 되었으며 선박의 주 추진기관의 연료로 사용 하더라도 잉여 가스가 남게 되어 화물탱크의 압력상승을 막기 위해서는 BOG를 재 액화하여 화물탱크로 반송하거나 소각하는 방법 등으로 처리하지 않으면 안 되게 되었다. 이러한 이유로 인하여 206K(206,000m3)급 이상의 대형 LNG 선박에서는 필수적으로 LNG 재액화 시스템을 탑재하도록 설계를 하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 현재 개발 되어 운항선에 적용되고 있는 여러 가지 LNG 재액화 시스템의 사이클 성능을 동일한 기기 조건하에서 해석함으로써 각각의 장단점을 비교하여 LNG선박의 설계 및 운항 시 재 액화 시스템의 최적화 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

Several techniques have been developed in the last years for energy conversion and aeronautic propulsion plants monitoring and diagnostics, to ensure non-stop availability and safety, mainly based on machine learning and pattern recognition methods, which need large databases of measures. This paper aims to describe a simulation based monitoring and diagnostic method to overcome the lack of data. An application on a gas turbine powered frigate is shown. A MATLAB-SIMULINK(R) model of the frigate propulsion system has been used to generate a database of different faulty conditions of the plant. A monitoring and diagnostic system, based on Mahalanobis distance and artificial neural networks have been developed. Experimental data measured during the sea trials have been used for model calibration and validation. Test runs of the procedure have been carried out in a number of simulated degradation cases: in all the considered cases, malfunctions have been successfully detected by the developed model.

The present study investigated temperature and thermal stress distributions in a film cooling system with normal injection cooling flow. 3D-numerical simulations using the FEM commercial code ANSYS were conducted to calculate distributions of temperature and thermal stresses. In the simulations, the surface boundary conditions used the surface heat transfer coefficients and adiabatic wall temperature which were converted from the Sherwood numbers and impermeable wall effectiveness obtained from previous mass transfer experiments. As a result, the temperature gradients, in contrast to the adiabatic wall temperature, were generated by conduction between the hot and cold regions in the film cooling system. The gradient magnitudes were about 10~20K in the y-axis (spanwise) direction and about 50~60K in the x-axis (streamwise) direction. The high thermal stresses resulting from this temperature distribution appeared in the side regions of holes. These locations were similar to those of thermal cracks in actual gas turbines. Thus, this thermal analysis can apply to a thermal design of film cooling holes to prevent or reduce thermal stresses.

Most of modem aerospace gas turbines must be operated at a gas temperature which is several hundreds of degrees higher than the melting temperatures of the materials used in their construction. Complicated cooling schemes need to be employed in the combustor walls and in the high pressure turbine stages. Internal passages are cast or machined into the hot sections of aero-gas turbine engines and air from the compressor is used for cooling. In many cases, the cooling system is engineered to utilize jets of high velocity air, which impinge on the internal surfaces of the components. They are categorized as 'Impinging Cooling Method' and 'Vortex Cooling Method'. Specially, research of new cooling system(Vortex Cooling Method) that overcomes inefficiency of film cooling and limitation of space. The focus of new cooling system that improves greatly cooling efficiency using less amount of cooling air on surface heat transfer elevation. Therefore, in this study, a numerical analysis has been peformed for characteristics of flow and heat transfer in the swirl chamber and compared with the flow measurements by LDV. Especially, for understanding high heat transfer efficiency in the vicinity of wall, we considered flow structure, vortex mechanism and heat transfer characteristics with variation of the Reynolds number.

Co-Re alloy development is prompted by the search for new materials for future gas turbines which can be used at temperatures considerably higher than the present day single crystal Ni-based superalloys. The Co-Re based alloys are designed to have very high melting range. Although Co-alloys are used in gas turbine applications today, the Co-Re system was never exploited for structural applications and basic knowledge on the system is lacking. The alloy development strategy therefore is based on studying alloying additions on simple model alloy compositions of ternary and quaternary base. Various strengthening possibilities have been explored and precipitation hardening through fine dispersion of MC type carbides was found to be a promising route. In the early stages of the development we are mainly dealing with polycrystalline alloys and therefore the grain boundary embrittlement needed to be addressed and boron addition was considered for improving the ductility. In this paper recent results on the effect of boron on the strength and ductility and the stability of the fine structure of the strengthening TaC precipitates are presented. In the beginning the alloy development strategy is briefly discussed.
