In this paper, we carried out CFD modelling and simulation for the membrane system to separate H2 gas from the multi-component feed gas. The membrane system is of the annulus tubular type consisting of the external lumen side for the feed gas and the internal permeation side for the sweeping gas. The operating temperature and pressure of the lumen side inlet flow are $374^{\circ}C$ and 7 bar respectively and those of the sweeping gas are $374^{\circ}C$ and 3 bar, and considering these conditions, Pd membrane system was employed. CFD simulations were performed for the co-current flow and counter-current flow membrane system based on the flow directions between the feed and the sweeping gas. Comparisons and discussions were made for the H2 partial pressure, H2 mole fraction and H2 flux for both cases. Furthermore, we executed CFD simulations for the each case of the various inlet flow rates of the feed gas at the lumen side. Accordingly, we reviewed the effects of the flow rate and residence time on the performance of the membrane system.

The study for the performance characteristics of the nozzleless booster used in ramjet booster was carried out. Performances related to pressure and thrust for nozzleless booster are lower than classical motor those because of absence of convergent and divergent sections of nozzle. To solve this problem, it developed a high-performance propellant with maximum impulse density included Al as metal fuel. Using the nozzleless booster casted the propellant, ground test of it was carried out by varying the length-to-diameter ratio (L/D ratio) of the propellant. Specific impulse of nozzleless booster was limited to about 75 percents of its value compared with that of classical motor adapted nozzle in the same propellant and propellant length and will be estimated approximately 85 percents of its value compared with that of classical motor at same average pressure in terms of the curve fitting by our test results.

A theoretical study on oxygen flow is fundamental to comprehend the practical production of an oxygen respirator and its stability. In this study, an orifice-type pressure-reducing component was designed for the newly developed oxygen respirator, using the commercial CFD tool, COMSOL Multiphysics, which increases its operational time compared to the existing component. The orifice was optimized by changing the length by 3, 6, and 9 mm within the entire computational domain of the oxygen respirator. Based on an oxygen flow rate of 0.028 kg/s, the oxygen respirator equipped with the newly developed orifice satisfied the flow rate within 33% for a respirator inlet pressure of 300 bar, and within 32.7% for 50, 75, and 100 bar. In terms of component manufacturing, the orifice length was selected as 3 mm, which removes additional changes to the existing component.

The Earth outer core accomodates moderately considerable amount of lighter elements than pure iron itself. Hydrogen is one of the possible candidates of minor constituents in the outer core. It would be worth while to extend for the pressure effect on the solubility of hydrogen in the metal-hydrides including iron hydride. In view of hydrogen being one of the potential substitutes for petroleum, searching a more efficient way for storing hydrogen in the form of hydrides is of considerable value. For two purposes, $TiH_2$was selected among lot of hydrides for its characteristics under pressure and temperature. There have been two kinds of experiment carried out on $TiH_2$ under different experimental conditions. As one of these attempts, polycrystalline $TiH_2$ was loaded up to 15 GPa stepwise at the constant temperature 500${\circ}$ using a piston-cylinder diamond anvil cell equipped with a miniature furnace of an electric power supply. The X-ra diffraction technique was employed on the quenched samples after the simultaneous high pressure and temperature treatments. During these high pressure-temperature runs, and irreversible phase of $TiH_2$ has been observed at the pressures higher than 11.3 GPa, which would be assigned to the orthorhombic crystal system as one of the new phase(s) of $TiH_2$. Molar volume change on this phase transition is ∼10%.

An enhancement in the performance and safety of a high-level waste repository requires a validation of its engineered barrier. An engineering-scale test (named "KENTEX") has been conducted to investigate the thermal-hydro-mechanical behaviors in the engineered barrier of the Korean reference disposal system The validation test started on May 31, 2005 and is still under operation. The experimental data obtained allowed a preliminary and qualitative interpretation of the thermal-hydro-mechanical behaviors in the bentonite blocks. The temperature was higher as it became closer to the heater, while it became lower as it was farther away from the heater. The water content had a higher value in the part close to the hydration surface than that in the heater part. The relative humidity data suggested that a hydration of the bentonite blocks might occur by different drying-wetting processes, depending on their position. The total pressure was continuously increased by the evolution of the saturation front in the bentonite blocks and thereby the swelling pressure. Near the heater region, there was also a significant contribution of the thermal expansion of bentonite and the vapor pressure in the pores of the bentonite blocks.

Hydrogen is usually produced by using syngas generated by the fuel reforming for natural gas so far. The further process is needed for increasing the hydrogen yield of syngas. However, the process for upgrading the hydrogen yield is accompanied by additional energy sources and economic costs. Thus related studies on the method for using as a mixture in itself have been conducted in order to utilize more efficiently syngas. The effect on the engine performance for methane/syngas mixture of 30kW spark ignition gas engine for power generation has been investigated in this study. As a result, it was found that the combustion phenomena such as the maximum in-cylinder pressure and crank angle at that time have been improved by methane/syngas mixture. Through these, fuel conversion efficiency could be enhanced by about 98% of methane/hydrogen mixture and $NO_x$ emissions could be reduced by about 12% of methane-hydrogen mixture.

This research is to decide the possibility of using RM50(reformulated methanol fuel) without any modification of engine by the method of numerical analysis. Comparing the heat release rate, the difference among each fuel was decreased according to the increase of the engine speed, and the maximum heat release rate was higher in the order of RM50 and gasoline fuel. Also, this order corresponds to the order of burning speed. RM50 had the higher turbulent burning speed, and the curve of turbulent intensity was showed similar tendency to the curve of turbulent burning speed. RM50 had relatively high burning speed, short quenching length, high temperature in cylinder, so that it might increase NO emission, but owing to chemical reaction dynamics, it was decreased NO emission. Therefore, in order to predict the possibility of using RM50, it is needed to consider not only the temperature in cylinder by low heating value, but also combustion characteristics including burning speed.

The objective of this work presented here was focused on analysis of in-cylinder combustion characteristic, engine performance, and nitrogen oxides emission characteristic from marine gas oil for propulsion diesel engine of naval vessels and biodiesel with fuel injection timing in a single cylinder diesel engine. In addition, combustion process was analyzed with a high speed camera of marine gas oil and biodiesel fuel. Retarding the fuel injection timing from $BTDC25^{\circ}CA$ to $BTDC5^{\circ}CA$, in cylinder peak combustion pressure was gradually decreased, however, engine torque showed a tendency to increase. The highest nitrogen oxides level was measured at $BTDC15^{\circ}CA$, they were reduced at retarded and advanced condition on the basis of $BTDC15^{\circ}CA$. Comparing with combustion process of marine gas oil and biodiesel fuel at $BTDC5^{\circ}CA$, self-ignition timing of biodiesel fuel included oxygen content was faster than marine gas oil, however, a cautious observation indicates a slightly higher flame intensity for marin gas oil than biodiesel as a diffusion flame is developing.

Monitoring systems of informations for ship performance have become important gradually for economical management of existing ship. Monitoring of NOx emission from marine diesel engines is one of them. The measurement of NOx emission, however has been many difficulties due to technical and costly problems. A monitoring by prediction method of NOx on-board ship according to sailing condition of ship could be an useful method. In this paper, it is discussed about modified method of one-zone model which has been utilized usually for analyzing the combustion process. The modified method is able to calculate the temperature of burned region from the result by one-zone model. Influences which excess air ratio during combustion process affected for the gas temperature and NOx emission were investigated. From the results variation of excess air ratio during combustion process could be estimated inversely through the comparison with measurement of NOx emission.
