Gas generator should be adopted either fuel rich or oxidizer rich combustion because of the temperature restriction to avoid any possible thermal damages to turbine blade. This study focuses to model the non-equilibrium chemical reaction of kerosene/LOx with detailed kinetics developed by Dagaut using Perfectly stirred reactor(PSR) assumption. To predict more reliable species fraction and other gas properties, Frenklach's soot model was added to Dagaut's detailed kinetics.

This paper considers the applicability of a pseudosteady-state approach to the long-time behavior of real gas flow in a closed reservoir. The method involves a combination of a linearized gas diffusivity equation using a normalized pseudotime and a material balance equation. For the simulation of field-scale problems with multiple wells of differing production rates over extended production periods, the pseudosteady-state equation was solved successively for each flow period. Results from this study show that the approach provides a fast and accurate method for modeling the long-time behavior of gas reservoirs under depletion conditions.

Membranes are used to separate pure gas from gas mixtures. In this study, three different types of mass transport through a membrane were developed in order to investigate the gas separation capabilities of a membrane. The three different models typically used are a lumped model, a multi-cell model, and a discretization model. Despite the multi-cell model producing similar results to a discretization model, the discretization model was selected for this investigation, due to the cell number dependence of a multi-cell model. The mass transport model was then used to investigate the effects of pressure difference, flow rate, total exposed area, and permeability. The results showed that the pressure difference increased with the stage cut, but the selectivity was a trade-off for the increasing pressure difference. Additionally, even though permeability is an important parameter, the selectivity and stage cut of the membrane converged as permeability increased.

In this paper, we carried out the process modelling and economical analysis of the 500 kg-H₂/d-class green hydrogen production system process based on biomethane from the Food Bio Energy Center in Chungju. As a result of economic analysis, the NPV(Net present value) after 15 years of operation is 3.831 billion won, the PI(Profitability index method) is 1.42. It was found that the project of 500 kg-H₂/d-class green hydrogen production system has a 20.25% of IRR, which is higher than social discount rate of 4.5% and feasibility is ensured.

Accidents in laboratory dealing with chemicals have constantly occurred. In the case of a gas explosion or an accident related to leakage of chemical materials, the damage is much greater, thereby leading to a serious accident. Especially, the safety of laboratory in University is important because students build up knowledge and skills and accumulate experience as the main researchers. In this paper, 5 gases(CO, $NH_3$, $H_2$, $CH_4$, $N_2$) are selected to model since they are often used in university laboratories. From the scenarios where the gases are released, the diffusion process is estimated and analyzed to predict damage degree by PHAST v.6.7. Internal diffusion process is modeled through FLUENT which is Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) tool. Also, we compare indoor damage with outdoor one when discharged to the outside through the laboratory's window. In the modeling results, the outdoor damages for accident scenarios in the results are far less than then of real plants since the vessel usually used in laboratory(i.e. the capacity of the cylinder; 47 L or less) is significantly less than workplace's one(using ton measure). However as shown in the results small amount can have high consequences for indoor accidents.

A gas turbine engine plays an important role as a prime mover that is used in the marine transportation field as well as the space/aviation and power plant fields. However, it has a complicated structure and there is a time delay element in the combustion process. Therefore, an elaborate mathematical model needs to be developed to control a gas turbine engine. In this study, a modeling technique for a gas generator, a PLA actuator, and a metering valve, which are major components of a gas turbine engine, is explained. In addition, sub-models are obtained at several operating points in a steady state based on the trial running data of a gas turbine engine, and a method for controlling the engine speed is proposed by designing an NPID controller for each sub-model. The proposed NPID controller uses three kinds of gains that are implemented with a nonlinear function. The parameters of the NPID controller are tuned using real-coded genetic algorithms in terms of minimizing the objective function. The validity of the proposed method is examined by applying to a gas turbine engine and by conducting a simulation.

This study was carried out for the purpose of determination of maintenance period and investigation of weak point due to freeze when the gas heater of KOGAS valve station Is not operated in winter season. 3-dimensional non-linear numerical simulation was conducted in order to predict the time and location which bath water in heater reaches to ice point. FLUENT V 5.0, commercial code, is used for thermal fluid flow analysis. We thought this was problem of heat conduction solving the energy equation and modeled gas heater by using the real geometry and scale for performing the 3-dimensional simulation. It was analyzed complex heat transfer phenomena considering convection due to air on surface, conduction in insulation material, natural convection of liquid in heater and heat loss through the pipe.

As the scale of explosions diversifies along with the expansion of gas handling and storage facilities, studies on explosion-proof facilities in preparation for accidents is being actively conducted. The gastight door blocks the expansion pressure caused by blast waves or internal fires, and at the same time protects the personnel and equipment inside. For gastight doors, the regulations related to explosion-proof design are not clearly presented, and studies on the explosion pressure resistance performance evaluation of the facility are insufficient. In this study, the gastight door was modeled in a 3D shape with reference to the regulation ASTM regarding the gastight door standard. Afterwards, evaluation for blast-resistant performance of gastight door using Numerical simulation was evaluated by using ANSYS Explicit Dynamics to compare the deformation.

본 논문에서는 다양한 가스 센서들을 이용하여 실내 공기 질을 측정, 수집하고 실시간으로 모니터링할 수 있는 센서 네트워크와 이를 효과적으로 사용자들에게 인식될 수 있도록 하기 위하여 빌딩 정보 모델링을 활용한 시스템을 제안한다. 기존 실내 공기질 모니터링 시스템은 휴대용 단말기 형태이거나 모니터 상으로 센서의 위치와 측정값을 보여주는 정도로서 사용자들이 쉽게 건물 내 공기질의 상태를 파악하는 것이 어려웠다. 따라서, 본 시스템에서 제안하는 방법은 건축물의 실내 공간을 모델링하고 실제 센서가 설치되어 있는 위치를 모델링 자료와 동기화시켜 사용자들이 직관적으로 실내 공기질을 모니터링할 수 있도록 하였다.

비선형 시스템의 성공적인 퍼지 모델을 구성하기 위한 최적의 퍼지 추론 시스템의 동정은 중요하고도 어려운 문제이다. 전통적으로 유전 알고리즘은 어느 정도의 전역 최적해를 찾을 수 있기 때문에 퍼지 모델의 구조와 파라미터를 동정하는데 사용되어 왔다. 그러나, 유전 알고리즘은 개체군 진화 시 우수한 개체의 출현은 지역수렴의 원인이 된다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 바이러스 메시 유전알고리즘을 이용한 효과적인 퍼지 모델링 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 지역 정보가 개체군 내에서 교환됨으로써 지역 수렴의 대인아 될 수 있을 뿐 아니라, 가변길이 스트링을 사용함으로써 좀더 효과적이고 적응적인 구조를 가질 수 있다. 또한 본 논문에서 제안한 방법의 우수성과 일반성을 증명하기 위해 복잡한 비선형 시스템과 가스로의 퍼지모델링에 적용하였다.
