Mixing performance between fuel and oxidizer is a significant parameter of combustion efficiency and stability in an air-turbo ramjet combustor. Two types of petal mixer were experimented to research the mixing performance. Mixing performance and fuel distribution images were obtained for petal mixers. Planar laser-induced fluorescence(PLIF) was used to obtain 2-D fuel distribution. The obtained images were processed in order to make use of the image information to a quantitative level. The results of analyzing the fluorescence images could be useful to find better mixing performance between mixers.

Fuel/air mixing in air turbo ramjet(ATR) combustor is a significant parameter of combustion stability and efficiency. In this study, fuel distribution in the ATR model combustor was measured to compare the degree of mixing with respect to the velocity ratio$(r=v_a/v_f)$ between fuel gas and air. Planar laser-induced fluorescence(PLIF) and image processing method were used to obtain two dimensional fuel distribution. Fuel mixing went bad with approaching to r=1.

The fuel cell has been continuously studied as environment-compatible alternative energy technology. Lately the basic techniques about stacking and widening are considered to be important for practical use. Although phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC) is the most progressed one in the fuel cell technologies, few studies about temperature profile of the stack which can be the basic data for the fuel cell design have been reported yet. In this study, the temperature profile of PAFC stack was simulated. The temperature profiles of stack were obtained at various operating conditions, and when stack is operated the proper position to measure the temperature could be predicted. Also we can propose more effective cooling design. The standard deviation of the temperature profile of the proposed design was is about 50% smaller.

This study compared and analyzed the effects of forest tending works on the vertical distribution of wildfire fuel loads on Pinus densiflora stands in Gyeongbuk province. The study sites were located in Youngju and Bonghwa in Pinus densiflora stands. A total of 10 sample trees were collected for the development of the crown fuel vertical distribution model. The 6th NFI (National Forest Inventory) selected a sample point that only extracted from managed and unmanaged stands of Pinus densiflora in the Gyeongbuk province. The fitness index (F.I.) of the two models developed was 0.984 to 0.989, with the estimated parameter showing statistical significance (P<0.05). A s a results, the vertical distribution of wildfire fuel loads range of unmanaged stands was from 1m to 11m with the largest distribution at point 5m at the tree height. On the other hand, the vertical distribution of wildfire fuel loads range of the managed stands was from 1m to 15m with the largest distribution at the point of 8m at the tree height. The canopy bulk density was 0.16kg/㎥ for the managed stands and 0.25kg/㎥ for the unmanaged stands, unmanaged stands were about 1.6 times more than managed stands. This result is expected to be available for simulation through the implementation of the 3D model as crown fuel was analyzed in three dimensions.

The present study investigated the effects of MTV(Manifold Throttle Valve) on the fuel distribution and the flame stability in a SI engine at cold, idling condition. For the quantitative measurement of fuel distribution with PLIF method, compensating techniques of various factors such as laser beam nonuniformity, background image and local OTF nonuniformity were developed. As a result, it was found that MTV had a positive effect on the air-fuel mixing and flame stability.

The atomizations of CWM slurry and water are done by a wheel atomizer which is designed and manufactured for this experiment. The variables of the experiment are the angle of vane, aspect ratio, particle loading and the mean size of coal particle distribution. The main purposes of the experiment are to know how the angle of vane and aspect ratio of vane influence the size distribution of CWM droplets. The experimental results say there are no appreciable effects on the mean size of CWM droplets from the change of loading of coal prticles in slurry. The mean size of coal particle in slurry, however, influence quite strongly the mean size of CWM droplets. The mean size of CWM droplets is quite strongly affected by the angle of vane. The size distribution of CWM droplets is controllable by the change of aspect ratio.

차세대 연료전지인 용융탄산염 연료전지의 운전조건을 확립하기 위하여 운전변수와 단위전지 성능과의 관계를 살표보았다. 용융탄산염 연료전지에 산화제로 공기를 사용하는 경우 양극가스에 질소가 포함된다. 그리고 연료전지의 작동압력을 높이면 출력을 크게 할 수 있다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 에너지 및 물질수지를 이용하여 양극가스내 질소 조성과 작동압력 변화에 따른 전지내의 온도분포 및 성능변화를 구하였다. 본 연구팀이 이미 발표한 용융탄산염 단위 연료전지의 전류밀도의 온도분포를 구하기 위한 수치모사가 이용되었다. 가스흐름의 형태는 십자류를 선택하였다. 양극가스내 질소의 영향은 냉각효과로 나타났다. 작동압력이 증가할수록 전지의 성능은 증가하였고, 기전력[mV]변화 대 압력[atm]의 상용대수값의 변화(즉, ΔV 대 Δ(log))의 1차함수 그래프 기울기는 79.9로 문헌상의 실험치와 유사하게 나타났다.

연료전지의 성능을 결정짓는 가장 중요한 변수 중의 하나는 각 스택의 채널에 얼마나 균일하게 연료를 공급할 수 있느냐이다. 본 연구에서는 네 가지의 모델을 사용하여 연료전지 매니폴드 형상에 따른 최적 설계를 수행하였다. 위 네 가지 모델은 각기 다른 기하학적 형상을 가지며 Edison CFD를 이용하여 형상 내의 유동을 비교하였다. 초기 모델에서는, 입구부에서 매니폴드로 유입되는 유동의 확산이 잘 일어나지 않아 각 채널의 질량유량이 불균일한 분포를 보였으며 특히 속도가 빠른 중심 영역의 채널에 많은 연료가 유입되었다. 이를 위한 디퓨져 모델링이 제안되었으며 실속이 최소한도로 발생할 때 채널당 질량유량이 가장 균일하다고 가정하였다. 이를 위해 다양한 디퓨져 각을 가진 모델을 사용했고, 이론상으로 실속이 발생하지 않는 형상에서 가장 균일한 분포를 보임을 확인하였다.

In accordance with the sulfur regulations of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) shows various production-dependent physico-chemical properties. This study aims to use as basic data for oil spill response according to study of physico-chemical characteristics of VLSFO and mixed fuel oil of VLSFO-HSFO. The mixed fuel oil was prepared by mixing 25, 50, 75 mass% of HSFO with VLSFO containing 0.46 and 0.36 mass% of sulfur. The physico-chemical properties such as the kinematic viscosity, pour point and distribution of Saturates, Aromatics, Resins, and Asphaltenes (SARA) were studied in the laboratory. As mixed of 75 mass% of HSFO with high the kinematic viscosity and low pour point in VLSFO, the kinematic viscosity of the mixed fuel oil increased to 350.2 %, and VLSFO with pour point of 23℃ and -11℃ lowered or raised to -3℃ and -6℃ respectively. As HSFO was mixed in VLSFO with a small Asphaltenes distribution, the Saturates distribution decreased to 68.8% and Asphaltenes distribution increased to 1,417 % dramatically.
