Numerical study was conducted for the effects of various burner array on the workpiece and the gas temperature in a continuos reheating furnace. Under the same conditions which were the total heat of combustion, the heat capacity of unit burner, the number of burner and burner array were changed to be applied the furnace. The behavior of workpiece temperature and gas temperature in a furnace were evaluated for the effects as function of the changed conditions. A continuous reheating furnace designed for 110 tons/day of production capacity was applied in this study. The furnace which has several gas burners is designed to heat a workpiece. By this study, the better condition was confirmed than the existing designed condition.

Heat regenerator attached in small-scale regenerative radiant tube burner was designed using the theoretical computation code and was confirmed the performance of waste heat recovery ratio. From the computation, when ceramic ball of 4-5kg was used, temperature efficiency and available waste heat recovery ratio were predicted 80% and 70%, respectively. Similar efficiencies were obtained from the experiments using LPG. However, since exhaust gas temperature entered into regenerator was below 850$^{\circ}C$ which was moth lower than that we expected. air preheating temperature was lowered below 800$^{\circ}C$.

Similar efficiencies were obtained from the experiments using LPG. However, since exhaust gas temperature entered into regenerator was below 85$0^{\circ}C$ which was much lower than that we expected, preheat air temperature was lowered below 80$0^{\circ}C$.

A method was developed for analyzing the radiation heat transfer from the duct burner flame to the heat exchanger in a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) in order to supplement the existing thermal design process. The burner flame and the heat exchanger were considered to be imaginary planes, and the flame temperature, surface, and emissivity were simplified using an engineering approach. Three analysis cases in which the duct burner position and fuel were changed were considered. The calculated flame radiative heat transfer and local flux on the heating surface were compared with those of 3-atomic gas radiation and convection. In all analysis cases, heat transfer by 3-atomic gas radiation was very small. The ratio of the flame radiative heat transfer to the convection heat transfer on the heating surface was estimated to be as high as 8-41%. Moreover, the local heat flux on the heating surface centerline was dominated by flame radiative heat flux.

This study investigated the characteristics of heat transfer and pressure drop for cross-flow heat exchanger of premixed combustion system. The premixed burner was in front of a heat exchanger, and the number of heat exchanger modules was changed to investigate the characteristics of NOx and CO emissions with various equivalence ratios. In addition, the effectiveness, entropy generation and pressure drop were calculated by various number of heat exchanger modules and the performance of heat exchanger was analyzed by the exergy loss.

수소의 소규모 분산 생산 기술은 본격적 인 수소 인프라가 도입되기 전에 연료전지 자동차의 수소 충 전용이나 분산 발전형 연료전지의 수소 공급을 위해 필요하다. 생산 용량은 수소 기준으로 $10\~100 Nm^3/hr$ 정도로 현재로선 천연가스의 수증기 개질법이 가장 경제적인 공정으로 알려져 있다. 소규모 생산에 따른 열효율 저하를 줄이 기 위해 단위 공정들이 통합된 컴팩트 개질 시스템의 개발이 필요하다. 핵심 기술인 컴팩트 리포머의 국산화 기술 확보를 위하여 $20 Nm^3/hr$용량의 동심관형 리포머를 설계, 제작하였다. 내부구조는 제작의 단순화를 고려하여 중첩된 동심관이 배열되었고 압력 손실과 열웅력 발생을 억제하도록 유로를 배치하였다. 수증기개질 반응에 필요한 반응열은 리포머 본체에 부착된 버너를 이용하여 공급하였다. 성능 측정을 위한 부속 기기로 상온 흡착식 탈황기, 폐열 회수형 수증기 발생기, 반응물 예열을 위한 열교환기, 생성 가스 응축기를 설계 제작하여 전체 리포밍 시스템을 구성하였다. 반응 온도 $680\~720^{\circ}C$, 탄소 대 수중기 비(S/C ratio) $2.7\~3.2$ 조건에서 수증기 개질 반응을 수행하였다. 해당 반응 조건에서 메탄 전환율 $89\%$ 이상, 저위 발열량 기준 개질 열효율 $70\%$ 이상을 달성하였고 개질 생성가스 내 수소의 최대 유량은 $23.4Nm^3/h$였다. 개발된 리포밍 시스템은 고순도 수소 생산이 필요한 경우, 수소 수율 향상을 위한 고온 수성 가스 전화 반응기를 통합 가능하도록 열교환기 구성을 조정할 수 있으며 용융 탄산염 연료전지와 같이 고온형 연료전지의 경우 $550^{\circ}C$ 이상으로 개질 생성 가스를 공급하도록 구성할 수도 있다. 향후 리포머 본체의 개질 효율 향상 및 장치 소형화, 부속 기기의 최적화를 통한 전체 리포밍 시스템 개선, 스케일 업 설계를 위한 엔지니어링 설계 패키지 구성을 계획하고 있다.
