상압의 유동층반응기 (0.1 m-i.d x 1.6 m-high) 에서 호주탄을 수증기와 공기를 사용하여 가스화 하였다. 또한 반응기에서 촉매효과를 고찰하기 위해 $K_2$SO$_4$+Ni(NO$_3$)$_2$ 촉매를 호주탄에 담지하여 가스화반응을 수행하였다. 생성가스조성, 생성가스량, 탄소전환율, cold gas efficiency 및 발열량 등에 대한 유동화속도 (2~5U$_{mf}$), 반응온도 (750~90$0^{\circ}C$), 공기/석탄 비 (1.6~3.2), 수증기/석탄 비 (0.63~l.26)의 영향을 조사하였다. 탄소전환율, 생성 가스량, 생성가스 발열량 및 cold gas efficiency 는 유동화속도와 반응온도의 증가에 따라 증가하였다. 공기/석탄 비가 증가함에 따라 탄소전환율과 생성가스량 및 cold gas efficiency 는 증가하지만 생성가스 발열량은 감소하였다. 수증기/석탄 비의 증가에 따라 발열량, cold gas efficiency 및 생성가스량은 증가하였으며, 탄소 전환율은 거의 일정하였다. 촉매 가스화반응에서 유동화속도, 반응온도, 공기/석탄 비 및 수증기/석탄 비의 증가에 따라 탄소 전환 율, 생성가스량, 생성가스 발열량 및 cold gas efficiency 는 크게 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.

The present study has been carried out to analyze the flow characteristics in the inlet expasion duct of a heat recovery steam generator by using numerical flow analysis. The inlet of HRSG corresponds the outlet of gas turbine exit and the flow after gas turbine has strong swirl flow and turbulence. The inlet flow condition of HRSG should be included the exit flow characteristics of gas turbine. The present numerical analysis adopted the flow analysis result of gas turbine exit flow as a inlet flow condition of HRSG analysis. Because the flow characteristics in the inlet duct of the tube bank is strongly related to the performance of a HRSG, it is most important for the optimal design of HGSG to understanding the flow phenomena in the inlet duct of HRSG. From the present study, the position of breakpoint in the inlet expansion duct should be lower than the reference breakpoint position for the optimal flow uniformity before the tube bank.

The swirl flow applied for high efficiency and reduction of emission such as NOx, CO in a gas turbine engine makes recirculation zone by shear layer in the combustion chamber. This recirculation zone influences a decreasing flame temperature and flame length by burned gas recirculation. Also it is able to suppress from instability in lean-premixed flame. In this study, it was found that the swirl flow field was characterized as function of swirl number using PIV measurement in dump combustor. As increasing swirl number, a change of flow field was presented and recirculation zone was shifted in the nozzle exit direction. Also turbulent intensity and turbulent length scale in combustor were decreased in combustion. It has shown reduction of eddies scale with swirl number increasing.

가스터빈 연소기의 역방향 이중 스월러의 두 번째 벤츄리 끝단 각도의 변이가 연소실내의 유동 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 벤츄리 끝단 각도가 수렴형, 직선형, 발산형의 세 형상에 대해 연료 분무가 없는 경우, 연료 분무는 있으나 연소는 없는 경우, 연소가 일어나는 경우에 대해 수치적 방법으로 연소실 내의 유동 특성에 대해 고찰하였다. 연료의 분무는 분무된 액적들이 갖는 운동량이 유입되는 공기의 운동량에 비해 적으므로 분무에 의한 유동 특성의 변화는 무시할 수 있는 반면 연소가 일어날 때는 유동 특성이 판이하게 달라짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 가스터빈 연소실 내의 유동 특성은 벤츄리 끝단 각의 변이에 따라 민감하게 변하고 있다.

In this study, we used a commercial simulator to investigate the gasification characteristics of Roto coal in the partitioned fluidized-bed gasifier, which consists of 4 parts such as coal pyrolysis, char gasification, tar/oil gasification and char combustion. The heating medium was exchanged between the combustion part and the gasification part in order to supply the energy needed for pyrolysis and gasification. The correlation model from experimental data in relation to the reaction temperatures, the reaction gases and the coal feed rates was derived for the coal pyrolysis. The equilibrium model was used for the gasification and the combustion model for the char combustion. In order to compare the reaction behavior of the partitioned fluidized-bed gasifier, the single-bed gasifier was also simulated. The cold gas efficiency of both partitioned fluidized-bed gasifier and single-bed gasifier was almost the same. The $H_2$ and $CH_4$ contents of the syngas in the partitioned fluidized-bed gasifier slightly increased and the CO and $CO_2$ contents slightly decreased, compared with the singlebed gasifier. In order to verify the model, ten cases of the single-bed gasification experiment have been simulated. The contents of CO, $CO_2$, $CH_4$ in the syngas from the simulation corresponded with the experimental data while those of $H_2$ was slightly higher than experimental data, but the tendency of $H_2$ content in the syngas was similar to the experiments. In the coal conversion, the simulation results were higher than the experiments since equilibrium model was used for the gasification so that the residence time and contact time in the model is different from the experiments.

Fluidized bed gasification is technically and economically proven technology, which shows the high possibility of realization and commercialization. However, in Korea, development of FBG to the commercial scale for power generation and industry is mainly blocked by the fact that there is no experience of design, troubleshooting and operation of even pilot scale fluidized bed gasifier. In this study, a $3MW_{th}$ circulating fluidized bed(CFB) was newly developed for biomass gasification. The fluidized bed was mainly composed of circulating and bubbling fluidized reactors integrating in-situ tar removal step in the system. For cleaning of the tar and acid gas in the product gas, the sequential gas cleaning process comprised of a ceramic filter, rapid quencher and wet scrubber was adopted. Effect of equivalence ratio was investigated to find the optimal operating conditions for the $3MW_{th}$ integrated system of fluidized bed gasification.

Hydraulic analysis of the natural gas transmission pipeline is to determine whether adequate flow can be sustained throughout the design life of pipeline under all expected flow conditions. Many factors have to be considered in the hydraulic design of long-distance pipelines, including the nature, volume, temperature and pressure of fluid to be transported, the length and elevation of pipeline and the environment of terrain traversed. This study reviewed the available gas operation data provided by pipeline construction project in the arctic area and discussed the gas properties such as viscosity and compressibility factor that influence gas flow through a pipeline. Pipeline inside diameter was calculated using several flow equations and pipeline wall thickness was calculated from Barlow's equation applying a safety factor and including the yield strength of the pipe material. The AGA flow equation was used to calculate the pressure drop due to friction, gas temperature and pipeline elevation along the pipeline. The hydraulic design in this study was compared with the report of Alaska Pipeline Project.

Turbulent swirling cold-flow in a cyclonic gasifier has been analyzed by numerical analysis. Comparison of two dimensional and three dimensional analyses has shown that concept of equivalent slit is appropriate for the two dimensionalization of three dimensional phenomena. Flow characteristics have been scrutinized by varying swirl number which is a crucial parameter in determining the flow pattern of the cyclonic gasifier. Reactive flow field has been estimated by using theoretical swirl number and equivalent slit width for reactive flow. Results show that proper flow field for the reactive coal gasification can be formed by controlling the exit area and azimuthal location of coal burners.

With the rapid increase in gas consumption, the role of pipelines as a transportation means of natural gas is increasing. In general, when natural gas is being transported in pipelines, some liquid mainly from formation of condensate is introduced and this phenomenon makes operational problems more complex in the gas industry. Thus, an appropriate method is necessary for predicting the effect of presence of gas condensate on operational efficiency. In this study, a statistical model was developed using an integrated single- and two-phase flows concept. Using this model, the effects of the incipient point of gas condensate and its quantity on outlet pressure were analyzed. Also, the effect of variations of flow regimes in two-phase region on outlet pressure after the incipient point was analyzed.

본 연구는 국내 고유의 가스화기 모델 개발의 목적으로 진행되었으며 다종의 가스화기 형상을 제안하고 전산해석을 이용한 비교검토를 통하여 국내 고유의 가스화기 개념설계에 활용하고자 하였다. 우선 downflow형 가스화기 3종과 upflow형 가스화기 3종에 대한 형상을 제시하고 cold flow 해석을 통한 가스화기내 유동특성과 체류시간등을 비교하였다. 또한 고유모델로의 개발에 적합한 형상을 고려하여upflow형 2종 및 downflow형 1종 등 총 3종을 선택하여 가스화 반응을 포함시킨 hot flow 해석을 진행하고 온도분포, CO 및 $H_2$의 가스농도분포를 비교하였다. 검토 결과 기존에 연구되어왔던 석탄가스기 형태인 upflow형 가스화기 하부에 산소공급노즐을 설치하는 경우 기존에 확보된 기술을 적용함을 물론 슬랙화효율을 높이는데도 잇점이 있을 것으로 판단되었다.
