Abstract

This study is a numerical study using commercial simulation program GT-Power on 1.5MW diesel engine for power generation. Performance comparison has done for diesel operation with dual fuel operation for different engine load(50%, 75%, 100%) using the target engine model with additional gas injection system. Effect of using Hi-sene, which is actually being used in island area, instead of diesel was also studied. As a result, under 60% natural gas with diesel condition, BSFC was increased by 32% without modifying system. There was almost no change for natural gas/Hi-sene condition compared with natural gas/diesel condition. Decrease of burned fuel fraction was the main reason of these phenomena. After optimizing system, BSFC was improved by 2%.

본 연구에서는 1.5MW급의 발전용 디젤 엔진을 대상으로 상용 프로그램인 GT-Power를 이용하여 천연가스와 디젤 혼합연소 엔진 모델을 구축하였으며 이를 통해 기존의 디젤 연소를 하는 경우와 천연가스-디젤 혼합연소를 하는 경우의 엔진 성능 변화를 부하율(50%, 75%, 100%)에 따라 비교하였다. 또한 도서지역에서 실제로 사용되고 있는 부생유를 적용하는 경우의 영향에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 그 결과 엔진의 운전 조건 변화 없이 천연가스를 디젤과 60% 혼합비로 연소하는 경우 최대 32%의 BSFC 증가를 보였으며 천연가스와 부생유를 혼합연소 하는 경우에도 디젤을 혼합 연소하는 경우와 크게 다르지 않은 결과를 보였다. 이러한 BSFC 증가의 원인을 연료의 불완전 연소율 증가로 제시하고 이에 대한 최적화를 진행했으며 그 결과 60% 혼소율 조건에서 약 2%의 개선효과를 보였다.
