The objective of this study is to numerically investigate the thermal characteristics of an automobile exhaust-based heat exchanger for automotive thermoelectric power generation with various exhaust gas mass flow rates and temperatures. The heat exchanger for automotive thermoelectric power generation has a square-type pin installed inside, so the maximum amount of heat can be transferred to the thermoelectric element from the heat energy coming from the automobile exhaust gas. The exhaust gas mass flow rate changed from 0.01, to 0.02, to 0.03 kg/s, and the exhaust gas temperature changed from 400, to 450, to 500, to 550, to $600^{\circ}C$, respectively. A numerical simulation was conducted by using the commercial program ANSYS CFX v17.0. Consequently, the exhaust gas pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the heat exchanger is determined according to the flow rate of the exhaust gas. When the mass flow rate of the exhaust gas increased, the pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the heat exchanger increased, but the exhaust gas pressure difference between the inlet of the heat exchanger and the outlet did not vary with the exhaust gas temperature. Therefore, in order to obtain the maximum surface temperature from the heat exchanger, the exhaust gas mass flow rate should be lower, and the exhaust gas temperature should be higher.

To facilitate low-pressure selective catalyst reduction (L.P SCR), a high exhaust-gas temperature of a four-stroke diesel engine for a ship's generator is required. This study aimed at reducing the exhaust-gas temperature by adjusting the valve open-close timing and fuel injection timing to satisfy the operating conditions of L.P SCR and prevent accidents associated with the generator engine due to high temperature. To lower exhaust-gas temperature, the angle of the camshaft was adjusted and the shim of the fuel injection pump was added. As a result, the maximum explosion pressure increased and the average of the turbocharger outlet temperature dropped. Considering the heat loss from the turbocharger outlet to the SCR inlet, the operation condition for L.P SCR was satisfied with 290 ℃. The study demonstrates that safe operation of a diesel generator can be achieved by lowering the exhaust-gas temperature.

하나로 반사체의 수직공 안에 설치된 냉중성자원 시설계통의 수조내기기는 원자로에서 생성되는 열중성자를 약 22K의 감속재로 감속시켜 0.1~10 meV 범위에서 높은 선속을 갖는 냉중성자를 생산한다. 냉중성자를 생산하기 위한 냉중성자원 시설계통의 구성은 감속재인 수소를 포함하고 있는 수소계통, 수소의 외부누출을 방지하기 위한 가스블랭킷계통, 극저온의 액체수소를 생산하기 위한 헬륨냉동계통, 극저온인 액체수소 층을 감속재용기 내에 유지하기 위한 진공계통 등으로 되어있다. 이들 계통 중 진공계통은 냉중성자원 시설계통의 정상운전 시 액체수소 열사이펀, 감속재용기 등의 냉중성자원 극저온 부품의 단열을 위하여 진공용기의 내부 진공도를 공정진공도 이하로 유지하기 위한 계통이다. 정상운전 시 진공계통으로부터 발생되는 배기 가스는 배기 수집탱크에 포집된다. 냉중성자원 시설계통으로부터 발생되는 배기가스는 배기수 집탱크를 통하여 수소의 누출여부를 확인한 후 원자로홀로 배기되도록 되어 있으며, 만일의 경우 탱크내부의 배기가스 수소 농도가 기준치인 3.5%이상일 때는 유입 원을 자동으로 차단하고, 희석용 가스인 고압의 질소를 주입하여 수소의 농도를 기준치 이하로 낮춘 후 원자로 홀로 자동 배출하도록 되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 냉중성자가 생산되는 냉중성자원 시설계통의 운전과정에서 진공계통으로부터 배출되는 배기가스를 배기수집탱크로 포집하고, 이 가스에 대해 수소가스의 농도를 분석하여 원자로 홀로 안전하게 배기할 수 있도록 수행된 수소가스 분석에 대해 기술하였다.

Since the operating temperature of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) is high, the heat management of the gases supplied to fuel cell system is important. In this paper, the temperature characteristic of the gases supplied to the anode and the cathode of the fuel cell is studied in case of utilizing the waste heat contained in the ship exhaust gas as a heat source to heat up the fuel, gas and water supplied to a 500kW SOFC system for a ship power. For the fuel cell system proposed in this paper, the temperature of gases supplied to the anode and the cathode was the highest temperature at 963K when the exhaust gas of the fuel cell was utilized as the heat source for gases supplied to fuel cell system instead of utilizing the ship exhaust gas. In addition, the engine power did not effect on the temperature of gases supplied to the fuel cell stack.

Infrared signal and exhaust gas temperature distribution with bypass ratio were measured using a micro turbojet engine. Micro turbojet engine was modified to simulate the turbofan engine behaviour. Core flow was simulated using the jet flow of the micro turbojet engine, and high-pressure air was supplied to its external duct to simulate bypass flow. The effects of bypass ratios (0.5, 1.0, and 1.4) were examined. The experimental results indicate that the infrared signal decreases as the bypass ratio increases. And also gas temperature decreases with bypass ratios. Additionally, Schlieren visualization of the exhaust gas plume was conducted. From the exhaust gas temperature distribution and Schlieren images, the structure of jet plume with various bypass ratios was understood.

산업화로 인하여 토지의 사막화, 물부족, 오존층 파괴, 지구 온난화 등 많은 환경문제가 발생되었으며 아직 진행 중에 있다. 이에 UN에서는 환경 규제를 강화하였으며 국제해사기구(IMO:International Maritime Organization)에서는 선박의 배기가스 규제 강화를 위하여 NOx(질소산화물) 및 SOx(황산화물)의 배기량을 줄이도록 하고 있으며 2016년부터는 본격적으로 규제하려 하고 있다. 상기의 규제 물질 중 NOx를 제거하는 선택적환원촉매(SCR:Selectivity Catalytic Reduction) 시스템은 선박의 배기가스가 지나가는 통로에 요소수(Urea)를 분무하여 $260^{\circ}C$ 이상의 높은 온도에서 요소수에 있는 암모니아가 배기가스에 있는 NOx와 반응, 결합함으로서 NOx를 질소와 산소로 분리, 제거하는 방식이다. 하지만 선박의 경우 대부분 엔진이 2행정으로 배기가스 온도가 일반적으로 $180^{\circ}C{\sim}220^{\circ}C$이기 때문에 요소수에 있는 암모니아가 배기가스에 있는 NOx와 반응하지 않아 환원률이 높지 않다. 이에 우리는 초미세기포를 이용하여 낮은 온도에서도 반응할 수 있는 요소수 및 요소수 활성화 기기를 개발하여 상기의 문제점들을 최소화 할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 SCR 시스템의 점성유동해석을 통하여 보다 효율적인 SCR 시스템의 개발을 할 수 있도록 기여하였다.

온풍난방기 20대를 대상으로 온풍난방기의 베기가스중 탄산가스농도, 온풍온도차, 배기가스온도 및 열효율을 조사하여 사용연수별로 분석하였으며 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 가. 사용연수별 온풍난방기 배기가스중 탄산가스농도와 온풍온도차는 사용연수에 따른 조사표본의 부족으로 큰 차이가 있었다고 하기는 어렵고 정확한 조사를 위해서는 보다 많은 대수가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 나. 사용연수별 배기가스온도는 사용연한이 오래될수록 높아졌다고 판단된다. 이는 열교환기에서 흡입공기와 연소열이 열교환이 충분히 이루어지지 않았거나, 버너노즐의 노후화, 버너송풍기, 온풍난방기 송풍기의 노후화에 따른 결과라 여겨진다. 사용연수에 따른 배기가스온도는 회귀방정식 Y= 79.032Ln(X) + 116.66 ($R^2$= 0.6784)로 나타낼 수 있었다. 다. 사용연수별 온풍난방기의 열효율은 사용연한이 오래될수록 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 회귀방정식 Y = 95.167 X $^{-0.054}$ ($R^2$= 0.5696)로 나타낼 수 있었다.

Exhaust gas recirculation method is widely used among various methods for reducing nitrogen oxides in automobile engines and incinerators. In the present study, the computational fluid dynamic analysis was accomplished to derive the optimal location of air nozzle exit position by changing its position in a venturi tube for the maximum flue gas recirculation effect. In addition, the flue gas recirculation characteristics with a cone at the exit of air nozzle was elucidated with flue gas recirculation flow rate ratio and mixed gas exit temperature. When the air nozzle exit position was changed from the start position (z = 0) to the end position (z = 0.6m) of the exhaust gas recirculation exit pipe, the change of streamline and temperature distribution in the venturi tube was observed. The exhaust gas recirculation flow rate and the average temperature at the mixed gas exit position was quantitatively compared. From the present study, the optimal location of air nozzle exit position for the maximum flue gas recirculation flow rate ratio and maximum mixed gas exit temperature is z = 0.15m (1/4L). In addition, when the cone is installed at the outlet of the air nozzle, the velocity of the air nozzle outlet is increased, the flue gas recirculation flow rate was increased by about 2 times of the flow rate without cone, and the mixed gas exit temperature is increased by $116^{\circ}C$.
