The code and standards related to fuel cells were analyzed to derive the SOFC(Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) stack safety performance evaluation items and evaluation methode. Safety performance evluation of the SOFC stack was tested by quoting derived test items. The stack used in the test is an anode-supported type 2 Cell stack (Active surface area : 220cm) manufactured by MICO Inc, and SOFC stack safety performance evaluation system used for the test is self-manufactured. We conducted a leakage test, current voltage characteristic test, rated output test, and power response characteristics test. In the safety performance evaluation test, the stack showed no gas leakage, the maximum output and rated output was recorded to 65.6 W(1.41 V, 46.5 A, $422mA/cm^2$), 62.3 W(1.57 V, 40 A, $363mA/cm^2$). In the power response characteristics test verified that the output is kept stable within two seconds. At the maximum load (40 A) and the minimum load (8 A), the output was recorded 62 W and 16W in $750^{\circ}C$. This study will contribute to the universalization and to provide much safe environment of operating the solid oxide fuel cell system.

A subscale gas generator was designed and manufactured to investigate the effect of design parameters on discharge coefficients of injectors for a 75 ton-class gas generator and hot-firing tests were successfully performed. The test results showed that discharge coefficients of fuel and liquid oxygen injectors remained nearly constant irrespective of variations of a mixture ratio and a chamber pressure. When the post diameter of the liquid oxygen injector was reduced, the discharge coefficient was increased as the pressure drop of the injector was decreased.

Recent trends in gas safety devices are actively developing and researching wireless gas safety devices in response to the development of wireless technologies and the needs of customers. Although there is controversy over the reliability of wireless, the strength of wireless convenience is increasing the introduction of gas safety devices, a reasonable performance evaluation method is needed to verify the safety and reliability of these devices. This paper amis to propose designing and manufacturing performance assesment equipment and methods for evaluating performance so that the safety and reliability of wireless gas safety devices can be verified and distributed smoothly. So, this study reviews the functions and methods of verifying reliability and safety by investing domestic and foreign the related wireless gas safety devices, produces equipments capable of testing major functions, and presents key performance assessment item and test methods that satisfy the reliability and safety requirements of wireless gas safety devices.

We proposed a method to convert the CO2 emission data of vehicles collected from the chassis dynamometer test from distance unit to energy unit which generally measured from the engine dynamometer tests. In the future, if engine dynamometer tests are limited, it is expected to be applied as an alternative method to calculate CO2 emission based on energy unit through the chassis dynamometer test. At this moment, engine efficiency is required and the test mode average efficiency should be used to improve the accuracy, not the result derived from specific speed and load conditions. Also, this method was applied to foreign data and the results were within 0.2%. However, CO, NOx and THC which have very low emission characteristics except CO2, are limited by the method proposed in this study and need to be considered separatively.

Natural frequencies of a cryogenic fuel tank of LNG vehicle were computed to check the safety related to the resonances, and tests were performed to confirm the vibrational durability of a cryogenic fuel tank. There were 3 tests. The first test started at excitation frequency of 31.9Hz, and the test was performed reducing the excitation frequencies. Failure took place at 22.1Hz. The second test was performed with the frequencies to be increased. At 12.7 Hz, failure took place and nitrogen gas was exhausted. In the third test, the excitation frequencies were continuously changed, and the vibration port was failed in the range between 8 Hz and 19.3 Hz. Detailed research on the failed parts of the tank in this study is recommended to enhance the safety of the cryogenic fuel tanks of LNG vehicles.

For the development of an improved upper-stage engine, research on a staged combustion cycle liquid rocket engine is in progress. A cold flow test, ignition test, and combustion test plans were established and performed to develop reignition combustion technology. In order to solve the problem of purge gas flowing into the fuel line, which may cause cavitation in the turbo pump during reignition, the test results of each stage were analyzed. Based on the analysis results, the purge gas inflow problem was solved by reducing the overlapping time between the operation of the bubble removal valve and the opening of the purge valve and the engine fuel valve. Based on this, the reignition combustion test was successfully performed.

가스기기 안전장치 및 조리기구에 중요한 안전장치인 Gas Sensor를 가속시험을 이용하여 신뢰성을 분석하였다. 시험을 실시한 결과 GAS SENSOR의 Heater는 인가전압에 따른 특성 변화가 아레니우스 모델과 어링모델이 잘 일치함을 보여주었다. 즉, Heater선의 전압은 발열온도에 비례하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이번 실험을 통하여 STRESS에 비례적으로 특성이 변하는 제품은 설계단계에서 수명에 영향을 주는 잠재적 취약부를 단시간에 효과적으로 끌어내어 개선할 수 있는 기술임을 입증하였으나 다양한 STRESS의 복합적인 인자에 의하여 변화되는 특성을 분석하여 실질적으로 현장실무에 활용을 위해서는 많은 기술적 보안이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

차단기의 개발과정은 크게 모의시험, 설계 및 제작, 성능시험 3가지로 나누어 볼 수 있다.이 중에서 모의 시험은 일반적으로 해석기술에 의해 주로 이루어지며, 차단기에 적용되는 해석기술은 1) 차단부 전계해석 2) 차단부 냉가스 유동해석 3) 차단부 열가스 유동해석(차단성능해석) 4) 차단기 동작특성해석 5) 차단기 응력해석 및 구조해석으로 대별할 수 있다. 상기의 해석기술은 적용하는 해석방법에 따라 다소 차이가 있지만, 1992년부터 당 연구팀이 개발중인 800kV 40kA 4000A 차단부를 개발하는 과정에 적용한 해석수법을 중심으로 살펴보기로 한다.
