지금까지 연료전지 시스템의 효율을 극대화시키기 위한 기술들이 개발되어 왔는데, 대표적인 방법은 CHP(Combined Heat & power)와 FCT(Fuel cell & Turbine) Hybrid 시스템이다. 그러나 본 연구의 기술은 연료전지 배열을 이용한 Coanda 공기증폭기를 장착한 새로운 개념의 고효율 연료전지 시스템이다. 원래 공기 증폭기는 완만한 곡면 주위를 흐르는 유체가 곡면의 표면을 따라 흐름의 방향이 바뀌는 원리(Coanda Effect)를 이용한 장치로서, 소량의 고압유체를 구동 에너지원으로 사용하여 최고 20배에 해당하는 많은 양의 주변 유체를 빠른 속도로 이송시키는 역할을 한다. 문제는 고압의 유체원을 만드는 것인데, 본 연구에서는 발전용 연료전지 시스템의 배기가스를 활용하여 먼저 고압의 수증기를 발생시키고, 다음으로 고압의 수증기를 공기 증폭기의 구동원으로 사용함으로써 연료전지 시스템의 Air blower를 대체하는 것이다. 이러한 개념을 검증하기 위해서 고압의 스팀작동 Coanda 공기증폭기를 제작하여 선행실험을 진행하였다. 먼저 공기증폭기의 Gap 및 스팀압력에 따른 공기유량, 압력 등의 기본특성을 조사하였고, 출력 공기의 특성을 개선하기 공기증폭기의 형상 및 재료를 새롭게 설계하였다. 그리고 실제 시스템의 적용가능성을 알아보기 위해서, 예로 300kW급 용융탄산염 연료전지 발전시스템의 Air blower 대체가능성을 확인하였고, 배열이용 Coanda 공기증폭기를 활용한 고효율 연료전지 시스템의 개념설계를 수립하였다. 결론적으로 본 기술을 활용하면 연료전지 시스템의 최종 전기효율을 향상시킬 뿐 아니라는 시스템의 장기 신뢰성을 증대시키는 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

The hydrodynamics and the liquid flow characteristics were investigated in an internal circulation airlift reactor with a single nozzle as a gas distributor. In an air-water system, the gas holdup in the individual flow zone and the impulse-response curve of tracer were measured at various gas velocities and reactor heights. Experimental results showed that for the higher gas velocity(>about 8 cm/s), the flow behavior of bubbles in the riser was turbulent flow due to strong bubble coalescences and the axial height of dispersion zone of large bubbles having uniform sizes in the downcomer was decreased with increasing gas velocity. And mean gas holdups in the individual flow zone and the reactor were increased with increasing gas velocities and were decreased with increasing heights of the top section of the reactor and it was decreased with increasing the height of the top section and gas velocity. Flow characteristics of liquid in the riser and the downcomer was tend to access to plug flow and the overall flow behavior of liquid was mainly varied with the size of the top section which it was assumed to be perfect mixing zone. In these conditions, liquid circulation velocities were increased with increasing gas velocities and they were higher than those by using other gas distributors.

A micro flow sensor on silicon substrate allows the fabrication of small components where many different functions can be integrated so that the functionality of the sensors can be increased. Further more, due to the small size of the elements the sensors can be quite fast. A thermal mass flow sensor measures the asymmetry of temperature profile around the heater which is modulated by the fluid flow. In normal, a mass flow sensor is composed of a central heater and a pair of temperature sensing elements around the heater. A new 2-D wide range micro flow sensor structure with three pairs of temperature sensors and a central heater was proposed and numerically simulated by the Finite difference formulation to confirm the feasibility of the flow sensor structure.

This study was aimed at analyzing the velocity and pressure changes in the airflow corresponding to different configurations of a diffuser for three types of cars. According to the flow results of the three automotive models, in model 3, the vortex was formed slightly upward on the outlet plane, whereas in models 1 and 2, the vortex was generated lower than that in model 3. The values of the pressure distribution in model 3 were larger than those for models 1 and 2 on the planes located at the same distance from the end of the rear part. The maximum turbulent kinetic energies in models 1 and 2 occurred at a location lower than that in model 3. The shape corresponding to the airflow that enhanced the driving performance was determined through the flow analysis.

Ocean wave energy harvesting is still too expensive despite developing a variety of wave energy converter (WEC) devices. For the cost-effective wave energy harvesting, it can be an effective measure to use existing breakwaters or newly installed breakwaters for both wave control and energy harvesting purposes. In this study, we investigated the functionality of both breakwater and wave-power generator for the oscillating water column (OWC)-type wave energy converter (WEC) installed in a pneumatic floating breakwater, which was originally developed as a floating breakwater. In order to verify the performance of the breakwater as a WEC, the air flow velocity from air-chamber to WEC has to be evaluated properly. Therefore, air flow velocity, wave transformation and motion of floating structure was numerically implemented based on BEM from linear velocity potential theory without considering the compressibility of air within the chamber. Air pressure, meanwhile, was assumed to be fluctuated by the motions of structure and the water level change within air-chamber. The validity of the obtained values can be determined by comparing the previous results from the numerical analysis for different shapes. Based on numerical model results, wave transformation characteristics around OWC system mounted on the fixed and floating breakwaters, and motions of the structure with air flow velocities are investigated. In summary, all numerical results are almost identical to the previous research considering air compressibility. Therefore, it can be concluded that this analysis not considering air compressibility in the air chamber is more efficient and practical method.

최근 기후변화에 따른 이상홍수의 발생으로 인하여 댐의 수문학적 안정성 확보가 필요하다. 이에 따라 댐의 비상여수로를 건설하여 이상홍수에 대비한 대책을 마련하고 있다. 여수로의 운영상 고유속의 흐름이 방류되는데 이때 공동현상이 발생하며, 공동현상으로 인해 발생된 공동이 파괴되면서 구조물에 큰 피해를 주고 있다. 이러한 피해예방을 위해 현재까지 개발된 가장 경제적이고 효과적인 대책은 공기혼입장치이며, 국내에는 최근에 적용되고 있으나, 세부적인 설계기준과 설계기법, 절차등이 부족한 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 여수로 구조물을 대상으로 발생하는 공동현상에 대해서 이론적, 실험적인 분석을 실시하고자 한다. 공동현상에 대한 이론적인 배경과 최근의 연구동향을 분석하고, 국내 기존댐에 적용한 공기혼입장치 설치에 대해서 사례연구를 실시하여 적정성을 검토하였다. 또한 여수로의 대표단면인 개착식 여수로의 구형단면에 대해서는 주암조절지댐을 선정하고 터널식 여수로의 원형단면에 대해서는 임하댐 비상여수로를 대상구조물로 선정하여 각각 1차원 수치해석을 실시한 결과를 토대로 공기혼입장치의 위치 및 최적규모를 산정하고자 한다. 1차원 수치해석을 통해 분석된 공동현상 및 공기혼입장치에 대해서 3차원 수치해석을 실시하여 압력변화 및 공기혼입량등 공기혼입장치의 설치전과 설치후에 대한 효과를 검증하고 마지막으로 수리모형실험을 실시하여 1차원, 3차원 수치해석 결과에 대한 검증과 구조물의 안정성 증대를 확인하고, 추후 기타 여수로 구조물의 설계시 참고할 수 있는 기초자료가 될 수 있도록 하고자 한다.
