국내 전력계통의 주파수 조정용 발전기로 사용되고 있는 가스터빈은 탄소중립 정책과 더불어 신속한 기동·정지 및 높은 열효율 등으로 인해 이용률이 증가하고 있다. 가스터빈은 고온의 화염을 이용하여 터빈을 회전시키기 때문에 터빈 입구온도가 기기의 성능과 수명을 좌우하는 핵심요소로 작용하고 있다. 하지만 입구온도는 직접적인 측정이 불가능함에 따라 제작사가 산출한 온도를 이용하거나, 현장 경험을 토대로 하여 예측된 온도를 적용하고 있어서 가스터빈의 안정적인 운전 및 유지관리에 많은 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 인공신경망에서 많이 사용되고 있는 DNN(: Deep Neural Network) 기반으로 하는 재열 가스터빈의 입구온도를 예측할 수 있는 모델을 제시하고 실측 데이터를 기반으로 제안된 DNN의 성능을 검증하고자 한다.

The performance of gas turbines is decreased as their operating hours increase. Fouling in the axial compressor is one of main reasons for the performance degradation of gas turbine. Airborne particles entering with air at the inlet into compressor adhere to the blade surface and result in the change of the blade shape, which is closely and sensitively related to the compressor performance. It is difficult to exactly analyze the mechanism of the compressor fouling because the growing process of the fouling is very slow and the dimension of the fouled depth on the blade surface is very small compared with blade dimensions. In this study, an improved analytic method to predict the motion of particles in compressor cascades and their deposition onto blade is proposed. Simulations using proposed method and their comparison with field data demonstrate the feasibility of the model. It if found that some important parameters such as chord length, solidity and number of stages, which represent the characteristics of compressor geometry, are closely related to the fouling phenomena. And, the particle sloe and patterns of their distributions are also Important factors to predict the fouling phenomena in the axial compressor of the gas turbine.

본 연구에서는 실험실 규모의 산업용 가스터빈 싱글노즐 연소기에서의 공진주파수 해석을 위한 고유값 도출을 목적으로 하는 1D 네트워크 모델을 개발하였다. 현대의 산업용 가스터빈은 다양한 요구 조건을 동시에 만족시키기 위하여 일반적으로 매우 복잡한 구조와 유동의 형태를 가지고 있다. 이러한 복잡한 연소기 특징 중 하나인 동일한 축 방향 위치에서 서로 반대 방향의 유동 흐름을 갖는 시스템에서의 네트워크 모델 구현을 목적으로 하였다. 네트워크 모델을 통해 음향장을 해석한 결과를 실제 형상을 그대로 해석한 헬름홀츠 기반의 모델링 결과와 비교하였을 때, 공진주파수와 모드 분포로부터 해석의 타당성을 검증하였다.

Gas turbines for an aircraft have the start and restart capabilities within their flight envelop. It is an important item for engine qualification and substantiated with the test. Experimental investigations were carried out to find the relation between the corrected torque and the corrected rotating speed of an air turbine starter in this study. A dedicated air supply system for the air turbine starter and a special device to measure the torque and the rotating speed of the air turbine starter were developed and installed at the altitude engine test facility in Korea Aerospace Research Institute. Experimental results show that the relations between the corrected torque and the corrected rotating speed of the air turbine starter are linear and the inlet temperature and pressure conditions for the air turbine starter were found out to provide minimum required torque for the engine qualification test at various altitude. The start and restart tests for the currently developing engine were successfully performed using this experimental results.

Gas turbines are extensively used in flight propulsion, electrical power generation, and other industrial applications. During its life span, a turbine blade is taken out periodically for repair and maintenance. This includes re-coating the blade surface and re-drilling the cooling holes/channels. A successful laser re-drilling requires the measurement of a hole within the accuracy of ${\pm}0.15mm$ in position and ${\pm}3^{\circ}$ in orientation. Detection of gas turbine blade/vane cooling hole position and orientation thus becomes a very important step for the vane/blade repair process. The industry is in urgent need of an automated system to fulfill the above task. This paper proposes approaches and algorithms to detect the cooling hole position and orientation by using a vision system mounted on a robot arm. The channel orientation is determined based on the alignment of the vision system with the channel axis. The opening position of the channel is the intersection between the channel axis and the surface around the channel opening. Experimental results have indicated that the concept of cooling hole identification is feasible. It has been shown that the reproducible detection of cooling channel position is with +/- 0.15mm accuracy and cooling channel orientation is with +/$-\;3^{\circ}$ with the current test conditions. Average processing time to search and identify channel position and orientation is less than 1 minute.

The integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) is one of the most promising proposed processes for advanced electric power generation that is likely to replace conventional coal combustion. This emerging technology will not only improve considerably the thermal efficiency but also reduce or eliminate the environmentally adverse effects normally associated with coal combustion. The IGCC process gasifies coal under reducing conditions with essentially all the sulfur existing in the form of hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) in the product fuel gas. The need to remove $H_2S$ from coal derived fuel gases is a significant concern which stems from stringent government regulations and also, from a technical point of view and a need to protect turbines from corrosion. The waste seashells were used for the removal of hydrogen sulfide from a hot gas stream. The sulphidation of waste seashells with $H_2S$ was studied in a thermogravimetric analyzer at temperature between $600^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$. The desulfurization performance of the waste seashell sorbents was experimentally tested in a fixed bed reactor system. Sulfidation experiments performed under reaction conditions similar to those at the exit of a coal gasifier showed that preparation procedure and technique, the type and the amount of seashell, and the size of the seashell affects the $H_2S$ removal capacity of the sorbents. The pore structure of fresh and sulfided seashell sorbents was analyzed using mercury porosimetry, nitrogen adsorption, and scanning electronmicroscopy.

The EDM processing characteristics of one of the nickel-based heat resistant alloys, Hastelloy- X, were investigated under the various EDM conditions and analyzed in terms of surface integrity. This alloy is commonly used as a material for the hot gas path component of gas turbines and it is difficult to machine by conventional machining methods. The primary EDM parameter which was varied in this study were the pulse-on time. Since the pulse-on time is one of the main factors that determines the intensity of the electrical discharge energy, it was expected that the machining ratio and the surface integrity of the specimens would be proportionally dependent on the pulse-on duration. However, experimental results showed that MRR (material removal rate) and EWR (electrode wear rate) behaved nonlinearly with respect to the pulse duration, whereas the morphological and metallurgical features showed rather a constant trend of change by the pulse duration. In addition the heat treating process affected the recast layer and HAZ to be recrystallized but softening occurred in recast layer only. A metallurgical evaluation of the microstructure for the altered material zone was also conducted.

The Ni-base superalloy GTD-111DS was designed in the 1970s and is widely used as the material of the first stage blade under a severe combination of temperature and pressure in gas turbines. But because GTD-111DS is distributed in the shape of blade and blade has a unique figure and many cooling channels, it is hard to manufacture the test specimen. In this reason, there are little data on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy. Therefore through the microstructure analysis, present paper observed that the shape of $\gamma{'}$ did not change even if aging time was increased but the amount and volume of the deposition of secondary $\gamma{'}\;rose\;and\;secondary\;\gamma{'}\;grew\;among\;primary\;\gamma{'}$. Also, by tensile test for different temperature, there was difference between yield strength and tensile strength in room temperature on heat treatment and extracting region but the more increasing temperature, the more decreasing difference between yield strength and tensile strength.

파이로스타터는 터보펌프 터빈의 초기 구동을 위해 터빈에 고압의 가스를 공급함으로써 액체추진기 관의 터보펌프 시동기 역할을 수행한다. 파이로스타터는 일종의 가스발생기로써, 내부에 충전된 저온고체추진제의 연소가스를 통해 시동에 필요한 에너지를 터빈에 공급하게 된다. 파이로스타터 내부에 충전되는 고체추진제의 외부와의 환경적인 격리뿐만 아니라, 연소 초기 연소실 내부의 충분한 압력 증가를 통해 저온 고체추진제의 점화특성을 향상시킬 수 있는 파이로스타터용 럽쳐디스크 개발을 위해 럽쳐디스크의 두께, 스코어의 깊이 및 형태, 가압 속도에 따른 파열압력과 파열반경 경향에 대한 시험을 수행하였으며, 설계파열압력 및 요구 파열반경 등 실제 운영 조건을 만족하는 파이로스타터용 럽쳐 디스크의 성능을 시험결과를 통해 확인하였다.
