Cooling of hot sections, especially the turbine nozzle and rotor blades, has a significant impact on gas turbine performance. In this study, the influence of precooling of the cooling air on the performance of gas turbines and their combined cycle plants was investigated. A state-of-the-art F-class gas turbine was selected, and its design performance was deliberately simulated using detailed component models including turbine blade cooling. Off-design analysis was used to simulate changes in the operating conditions and performance of the gas turbines due to precooling of the cooling air. Thermodynamic and aerodynamic models were used to simulate the performance of the cooled nozzle and rotor blade. In the combined cycle plant, the heat rejected from the cooling air was recovered at the bottoming steam cycle to optimize the overall plant performance. With a 200K decrease of all cooling air stream, an almost 1.78% power upgrade due to increase in main gas flow and a 0.70 percent point efficiency decrease due to the fuel flow increase to maintain design turbine inlet temperature were predicted.

최근 정부의 친환경 에너지 정책에 따라 고효율 가스 복합 발전이 기존의 석탄 화력 복합 발전을 대체하는 추세에 있다. 발전용 가스터빈의 효율 향상에 따라 터빈 입구온도는 현재 $1,600^{\circ}C$에 이르러 가스터빈의 냉각 부하가 크게 증가되어 고온에서의 가스터빈 냉각 기술이 더욱 중요하게 되었다. 이 글에서는 고온에서 가스터빈 공기냉각 기구를 개발하고 냉각 성능 평가에 필요한 고온 풍동 시험설비 및 측정기술을 간략하게 소개하고자 한다.

Climate analysis is important in urban planning for human comfort. Synoptic weather conditions can only resolve the 30% of local variance of wind conditions whereas 70% of the variance arise from local terrain, buildings, and other small scale thermal conditions. Climate Analysis Seoul (CAS) was developed to resolve such micro-scale climate. The Local-scale air temperature Deviation (LD) analysis map from CAS showed the co-existence of built-up and suburban areas in the study region (CR, Cold-air analysis Region) despite its small extent. Temperature, humidity, wind speed, and wind direction were monitored in CR. Hourly observed cooling rate agreed well with LD. Cold air production, transportation, and stagnation was visualized by the observed Vertical Temperature Gradient (VTG) along the small stream in CR. VTG observed at the upper-most stream can be divided into two components: radiative cooling and cold air inflow from outside. Radiative cooling exists regardless of the wind speed whereas cold air inflow occurs only with calm wind. From the regression analyses based on the wind speed, the inflow portion was determined as 84% of radiative cooling. Climate analysis in the future will be able to characterize the changes in cold air by urban development plan to support the human comfort.

This study was conducted to analyze the cooling and the quality characteristics of milled rice stored in the forced air-blast type using thermo -electric semiconductor and in the still-air type chambers using refrigeration system with refrigerant(R-22). Cooling rates of milled rice in the forced air-blast type and in the still-air type chambers were $0.30\;^{\circ}C/hour$ and $0.21\;^{\circ}C/hour$, respectively. And the temperatures of cooling air and of milled rice at different positions in the forced air-blast type chamber showed severer change than those in the still-air type chamber. During storage of milled rice in the forced air-blast type and still-air type chambers for 14 weeks, there was no significant difference in the quality characteristics, such as b value and fat acidity of milled rice, and overall sensory quality of cooked rice. But the quality characteristics of milled rice stored in room temperature chamber($25^{\circ}C$) as control decreased very rapidly compare to those stored in the cooling chambers. In aspect of fat acidity of milled rice, 6 weeks was the limitation for the safe storage in room temperature.

고속절삭을 통해서 생산성과 가공정밀도의 향상을 도모할 수 있기 때문에, 최근 머시닝센터를 중심으로 한 공작기계 주축계의 고속화는 눈부시게 발전하고 있다. 그러나 주축계가 고속화될 수록 증가하는 베어링에서의 발열은 베어링의 수명단축, 주축계의 열변형 증대 등을 초래하고, 궁극적으로 공작기계의 성능을 저하시키게 된다. 따라서 고속으로 회전하는 베어링에서의 발열을 효과적으로 억제할 수 있는 윤활방법에 대한 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 공작기계용 고속주축계의 냉각특성을 규명하기 위한 노력의 하나로 압축공기를 이용한 고속주축 계의 냉각실험을 수행하였다. 고속주축계의 실험모델은 오일에어윤활방법, 앵귤러콘택트 볼베어링, 이중분사노즐, 냉각 자켓등을 사용해서 제작하였으며, 특히 고속주축계의 공기냉각방법에 대한 유용성은 실험결과로 부터 입증하였다.

vortex tube는 간단한 구조의 관을 이용하여 어떠한 화학작용이나 연소작용 없이 압축유체를 저온 및 고온부분으로 분리하는 에너지 분리장치이다. 금속학자 Georges Joseph Ranque에 의해 vortex tube의 에너지분리 현상이 발견된 후 vortex tube는 공작기계에 의한 금속가공에 있어서 가공물의 열변형을 막기 위한 국소냉각, 금형제품의 급속냉각 또는 냉각복(air cooling jacket)에 사용하거나 공기공급식 호흡보호구의 공기공급시스템에 많이 활용되고 있다. vortex tube를 이용한 냉각복 및 호흡보호구는 소형, 경량으로서 근로자의 직접적인 조작이 간단하고, 열기가 신체에 직접적으로 닿지 않아 안전하고, 냉각효율이 높을 뿐만 아니라 매우 경제적이어서 그 이용률이 점차 확대될 전망이다.

Transpiration cooling is the most effective cooling technique for liquid rocket and air-breathing engines operating in aggressive environments with higher pressures and temperatures. Combustor liners and turbine vanes are cooled by the coolant(air or fuel) passing through their porous walls and also the exit coolant acting as an insulating film. However, its practical implementation has been hampered by the limitations of available porous materials. The search for more practical methods of increasing the internal heat transfer within the walls has led to the development of multi-laminate porous structures, such as Lamilloy$^{(R)}$ and Transply$^{(R)}$. This paper reviews recent research activities of transpiration cooling for the propulsions of liquid rocket, gas turbine, and scramjet.

Transpiration cooling is the most effective cooling technique for the high-performance liquid rockets and air-breathing engines operating in aggressive environments with higher pressures and temperatures. When applying transpiration cooling, combustor liners and turbine blades/vanes are cooled by the coolant(air or fuel) passing through their porous walls and also the exit coolant acting as an insulating film. Practical implementation of the cooling technique has been hampered by the limitations of available porous materials. But advances in metal-joining techniques have led to the development of multi-laminate porous structures such as Lamilloy$^{(R)}$ fabricated from several diffusion-bonded, etched metal thin sheets. And also with the availability of lightweight, ceramic matrix composites(CMC), transpiration cooling now seems to be a promising technique for high-performance engine cooling. This paper reviews recent research activities of transpiration cooling and its applications to gas turbines, liquid rockets, and the engines for hypersonic vehicles.

ATM 교환기에 사용되는 하이브리드 IC에 대해 냉각성능과 전자파 차폐성능을 실 험과 수치해석에 의해 분석하였다. 하이브리드 IC 상부에 전자파 차폐를 위해 부착하는 덮 게의 형상에 따라 냉각공기 유속 0.5~0.4m/sec 조건에서 냉각실험을 하였고 냉각 해석 코 드인 Flotherm으로 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션하여 비교하였다. 그리고 각 덮게의 형상에 따라 30MHz ~1GHz 대혁에 걸쳐 전자파 차폐 실험을 하엿다. 실험결과 냉각 특성의 실험과 수 치해석 결과 잘 일치하였으며 공기 유속을 1.0m/sec 이상으로 유지시키면 덮개 형상에 무관 하게 열적으로 안저하였다. 30~700MHz 영역에서는 덮게로 인한 전자파 차폐효과가 뚜렷하 였으나 700MHz 이후의 대역에서는 접지와 접속되는 리이드의 임피던스 증가로 인하여 차 폐효과가 감소하였다.
