분류층 석탄가스화기에서 슬래그의 원활한 배출은 가스화 플랜트 운전 및 성능에 중대한 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 가스화기의 운전 온도에서 슬래그 점도가 일정수준 이상인 경우에는 가스화기 하부 슬래그 배출구 막힘 현상을, 일정 수준 이하일 경우에는 Membrane wall의 slag 두께가 얇아져 가스화기 수냉벽에 열적 악영향을 미친다. 가스화기의 안정적인 운전을 위한 석탄 선정 시, 석탄 슬래그의 용융온도 및 점도의 파악이 중요하다. 일반적으로 석탄슬래그의 용융온도는 ASTM D-1857 절차에 따른 환원분위기에서의 회융유온도(FT)측정을 통해, 점도는 고온점도측정 실험을 통해 분석하고 있다. 이런 실험적인 분석방법은 다양한 슬래그조성 및 온도 변화에 따른 영향을 살펴보기에는 많은 시간과 비용이 발생하므로 슬래그조성 및 온도 변화에 따른 용융온도 및 점도 예측이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 200여 탄종의 회용유점 측정 결과와 FactSage에서 예측되는 슬래그 결정상 생성 및 회용유점(FT)에서의 고체분율과의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 다양한 Ash 조성(SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CaO)에 대한 회용유점(FT)을 예측할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 또한 50여 탄종의 슬래그 점도 측정 결과를 Facsage에서 예측되는 결정상 종류 및 Ash 조성을 기준으로 분류하였다. 결정상 종류 및 Ash 조성을 기준으로 기존 슬래그점도예측모델를 활용하여 보다 정확한 슬래그 점도 예측 프로세스를 개발하였다. 본 연구 결과는 플랜트 운전 결과 검증을 통하여 석탄 가스화 플랜트에 적합한 석탄의 선정, 혼탄 비율 및 첨가제 투입량 결정을 위해 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Importance of climate change and its impact on agriculture and environment has increased with a rise of greenhouse gases (GHGs) concentration in Earth's atmosphere, which had caused an increase of temperature in Earth. Greenhouse gas emissions such as methane($CH_4$) and nitrous oxide($N_2O$) in the field need to be assessed. GHGs fluxes using chamber systems in the fields(2004~2005) with pepper cultivation were monitored at the experimental plots of National Academy of Agricultural Science(NAAS), Rural Development Administration(RDA) located in Suwon city. $N_2O$ emission during pepper growing period was reduced to 74.0~82.1% in sandy loam soil compared with those in clay loam soil. Evaluating $N_2O$ emission at different levels of soil water conditions, $N_2O$ emission at -50 kPa were lowered to 13.2% in clay loam soil and 40.2% in sandy loam soil compared with those at -30 kPa. $CH_4$ emission was reduced to 45.7~61.6% in sandy loam soil compared with those in clay loam soil. Evaluating $CH_4$ at different levels of soil water conditions, $CH_4$ emission at -50 kPa was lowered to 69.6% in clay loam soil and 55.8% in sandy loam soil compared with those at -30 kPa. It implied that -50 kPa of soil water potential was effective for saving water and reducing GHG emissions. From the path analysis as to contribution factors for $N_2O$ emission, it appeared that contribution rate was in the order of mineral N(51.2%), soil temperature (25.8%), and soil moisture content(23.0%) in clay loam soil and soil moisture content(39.3%), soil temperature (36.4%), and mineral N(24.3%) in sandy loam soil.

An empirical model of nitrous oxide emission from agricultural soil has been applied. It is based on the relationship between $N_2O$ and three soil parameters, soil mineral N(ammonium plus nitrate) content in the topsoil(0-15cm), soil water-field pore space, and soil temperature, determined in a study on clay loam and sandy loam at the pepper field in 2004. For comparisons between estimated and observed values of $N_2O$ emissions in the pepper field, it was investigated that $N_2O$ amount in the clay loam and sandy loam were overestimated as 12.2% and less estimated as 30%, respectively. However, $N_2O$ emissions were overestimated as 27.1% in the clay loam and 14.7% in the sandy loam from $N_2O$ gas samples collected once a week at the same time analyzing soil parameters. This modelling approach, based as it is well established and widely used soil measurements, has the potential to provide flux estimates from a much wider range of agricultural sites than would be possible by direct measurement of $N_2O$ emissions.

In view of energy supply, biogas can be seen as alternative fuel by substituting considerable amount of fossil fuel and may be utilized for heat and power production or for transport fuel production ($CH_4-enriched$ biogas). The aim of this research is to analyse the emission of $NO_x$ and CO from biogas fired combustion engine for electric power production. The result indicate a significant effect of biogas composition ($CH_4-CO_2$ ratio) and biogas flow rate on the air pollutants emission. The emission factors from this study were compared with those of U.S. EPA. Low $CH_4-CO_2$ ratio condition typically shows the lower $NO_x$ and CO emission than higher $CH_4-CO_2$ ratio condition. At normal $CH_4-CO_2$ ratio (7:3) emission factors of $NO_x$ and CO were 1.29 and 30.43 g/MMBtu, respectively. At low $CH_4-CO_2$, ratio (6:4) emission factors of $NO_x$ and CO were 0.646 and 60.86 g/MMBtu, respectively, It should be emphasized that the actual emission may vary considerably from these results due to operating conditions including torque load and engine speed.

Nitrogen fertilizers, hairy vetch, and slow-release complex fertilizers were applied to the soil during the cultivation of crops. The impact of these factors on $N_2O$ emission was quantitatively assessed and the GHGs reduction effect comprehensively evaluated. Among the three factors, the significant factors affecting $N_2O$ emission were mineral nitrogen>soil moisture>temperature. Yield and fertilizer utilization efficiency were highest in the slow-release complex fertilizer treatment. There was no significant difference in $N_2O$ emissions between the slow-release complex fertilizer treatments and the NPK+hairy vetch treatments. Comprehensive results showed that slow-release complex fertilizers treatment has high yield and fertilizer utilization efficiency but low $N_2O$ emission.

Increasing heat generation in CPUs can hamper effective recirculation and by-pass because of the large temperature difference between the exhaust and the intake air through a server room. This increases the overall temperature inside a data center and decreases the efficiency of the data center's cooling system. The purpose of the data center's cooling system is to separate the intake and exhaust air by controlling the computer room air-conditioner(CRAC). In this study, ICEPAK is used to conduct a numerical analysis of a data center's cooling system. The temperature distribution and the entire room are analyzed for different volumetric flow rates. The optimized volumetric flow rate is found for each CPU power. The heat removal and temperature distribution for CPU powers of 100, 120, and 140 W are found to be the best for a volumetric flow rate of $0.15m^3/s$. The numerical analysis is verified through RTI indicators, and the results appear to be the most reliable when the RTI value is 81.

본 연구는 각기 다른 종류의 원단으로 운동복을 만들어 선수들에게 입혀서 운동을 20분간 실시하게 하여 원단에 따라 쾌적감을 평가하였다. 실험방법은 피부온도를 4부위 측정하였고 가슴부위에서 의복 내 온도를 측정하였으며 매 5분마다 주관적인 쾌적감을 신고하도록 하였다. 연구의 목적은 다른 종류의 원단으로 제작한 운동복에 따른 쾌적감과 피부온도의 변화와 의복내 온도의 변화를 알아봄으로서 원단별로 쾌적감을 느끼는 피부온도와 의복 내 온도를 찾아내고 운동복의 디자인이나 설계에 적용하여 쾌적한 운동복을 개발하고자 한다. 그 결과 동일한 원단에서 운동시의 쾌적감은 부위별 피부온도가 높을 때 보다 낮을 때에 쾌적감을 느끼고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 즉 운동 시에 발생하는 열을 의복이 열 평형을 이루기 위해 빨리 열을 밖으로 배출할 수 있는 의복의 디자인이 필요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 각기 다른 원단에서는 시간별 감각평가를 비교한 결과 PE/Wool의 원단이 쾌적하다는 평가를 하였다. 처음 의복을 입었을 때와 운동 중 그리고 운동 후에 피부온도나 의복 내 온도 변화가 적을 때에 쾌적하다는 평가를 하였다.

The heat generated by electrical components during train operation was estimated by measuring the wall temperature in a locomotive, as well as the temperature and speed of the air entering from the outside and then returning to the outside. The temperatures of the electrical components and wall surface in a high-speed train were measured using an infrared camera. The heat generated by the electrical components was exhausted to the outside through a duct installed on the ceiling of the high-speed train. Thus, the temperature and speed of this exhaust air were measured, as well as those of the air entering the locomotive from the outside. The temperatures at the surfaces of the electrical components and walls in the locomotive were also measured using an attachment-type temperature sensor. In addition, the measurement results were applied to analyze how the heat characteristics of the electrical components were affected by the train operation.

Submarines, which require a high degree of survivability, are among the most critical combat weapon systems in military strategic assets. Conventional submarines need air to operate their propulsion systems. Exhaust gases released into the water during snorkel navigation heat the surrounding fluid, producing a temperature wake. This wake, in turn, reduces the submarine's survivability. In this study, we conducted a preliminary experiment on the temperature traces formed by an underwater submarine's waste discharge. For this purpose, we collected propulsion system and navigation condition data from domestically introduced submarines and developed an experimental system to measure the temperature traces. As a result, we observed that high-temperature bubbles injected into the tank broke down into smaller sizes, and their temperature dropped to levels similar to the surrounding fluid. This observation was confirmed using a thermocouple sensor. Consequently, the thermal imaging system designed to measure the temperature trace of the water's surface did not detect any significant temperature traces.

탄소 개질반응은 $1200^{\circ}C$(도1) 이상에서 모든 탄화물질과 수분 또는 $CO_2$ 사이에서 흡열/환원반응이 일어나서 합성가스를 생성한다. 개질반응로는 산화반응로와 연결되어, 수소가스와 CO 가스의 혼합인,합성가스가 산화반응로 내에서 산소가스와 연소하여 열과 $H_2O+CO_2$를 생성하여 환원 반응로 내로 유입되어, 환원 반응로를 $1200^{\circ}C$ 이상으로 유지하고, $H_2O$와 $CO_2$는 석탄 속의 모든 탄소를 CO로 개질한다(도2). 동시에 수소가스가 생성되어 합성가스를 생성하게 된다. 석탄 속의 비탄소 물질인 슬래그(Slag)는 개질로 내에 남게 되는데, 개질로를 슬래그 융점(non-fluid point) 이하에서 고체상태로 포집함으로서 Fly-ash로 처리된다. 개질로 내의 온도를 $1200{\sim}1300^{\circ}C$(석탄 슬래그 융점)로 유지함으로서 개질반응이 지속되어 합성가스가 생성된다. IGCC 시스템에서는 합성가스를 가스터빈 속에서 $O_2E가스와 연소하여 고온의 가스를 생성하여 터빈을 가동해 발전을 하고 배출가스를 $1500{\sim}1700^{\circ}C$에서 배출한다. 재래식 IGCC(도4)에서는 ${\sim}1500^{\circ}C$의 배출가스를 열교환 시스템에 의해 증기를 생성하여 Steam turbine(증기터빈)을 가동하여 추가 전력을 생산했다. 그러나 본 시스템에서는 배출가스(증기와 $CO_2E 가스)를 위의 개질로에 유입하여 개질로 온도를 $1200{\sim}1300^{\circ}C$로 유지함으로서 더 많은 합성가스를 생성 하게 된다(도3). 이렇게 하여 Oxidation-reduction cycle을 형성하게 된다. 새로운 IGCC 시스템에서 가스 터빈의 배출가스가 석탄 개질로에 연결되고 석탄개질로의 합성가스 출구가 가스터빈의 가스 입구에 연결됨으로서,외부에너지 주입 없이 지속 가능한 가스화 반응과 터빈 사이클(Cycle)을 완성하여 IGCC 시스템의 석탄 열효율을 1단계 상승시켰다. 이렇게 설계된 석탄가스화기는 Lurgi형 석탄가스화 기와 달리 석탄개질반응의 효율을 높일 수 있고, 슬래그 처리가 간단하기 때문에 석탄가스화기가 소형화 될 수 있으며 슬래그(Slag)용융에 따른 석탄가스화기의 외벽손상을 피할 수 있다.
