A transient analysis on fuel temperatures in an aircraft was studied using the finite difference method. Numerical calculation was performed by an explicit method of modified Dufort-Frankel scheme. Among various missions, close air support mission was considered with 20% hot day ambient condition in subsonic region. The aircraft was assumed to be in turbulent flow. The fuel system model with additional fuel supplies and return concept was considered. As a result of this analysis, the fuel tank temperatures have increased with the increase of the additional fuel supplies. In contrast to tank temperatures, the fuel temperature at the engine inlet has decreased with the increase of additional fuel supplies except in some in-flight phases having high engine fuel flow. From this analysis, the fuel system with the additional fuel supplies and return concept has been shown to be an effective method to decrease the engine inlet fuel temperature. Also, it has been shown that fuel flow rate through fuel/oil heat exchanger is a key factor influencing fuel temperature.

현재 상용화되어 있거나 상용으로 개발하는 연료전지시스템의 큰 특징은 작동온도로 구분할 수 있다. 저온형 연료전지는 낮은 작동온도로 운전이 용이하고 출력밀도가 높아 자동차용 및 가정용 등으로 사용되고 있는 반면, 작동온도가 높은 고온형 연료전지의 경우는 높은 발전효율과 고온 폐열의 이용 등의 목적으로 주로 전력사업용 연료전지로 개발되고 있다. 본 발표에서는 주로 발전용에 사용되고 있는 우리나라의 고온형 연료전지의 개발 이력 및 현재의 산업화 현황에 대해 정리하여 보고드리고자 한다.

This paper is concerned with the effects of temperature of diesel fuel on combustion characteristics and engine performance in a home-made precombustion diesel engine for small-sized fishing boat. The results may be summarized as follows: 1. The fuel injection timing was delayed with increase in temperature for diesel fuel, and remarkably delayed at low load. 2. The point of maximum pressure was delayed with increase in temperature for diesel fuel, the maximum pressure decreased with increase in temperature for diesel fuel but increased with increase in load. 3. The brake specific fuel comsumption (BSFC) decreased with increase in load, the optimum temperature of the heated fuel was about 15$0^{\circ}C$. 4. The smoke emissions increased with increase in load and temperature for diesel fuel.

발전 연료로서의 활용 가치가 높은 중잔유의 효과적인 활용을 위해 중잔유의 가스화 성능에 영향을 주는 주요 변수들인 산소 공급비, 증기 공급비 및 가스화기 온도를 변화시키면서 중잔유 가스화에 미치는 영향을 파악하였으며 가스화 성능을 예측하였다. 산소량은 0.5~2.0의 산소/연료비 범위에서 변화시켰고 증기량은 0.1~2.0의 증기/연료비에서 변화시켰으며 가스화기 온도는 600~200$0^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 변화시켰다. 대상 연료는 국내산 아스팔트이며 산소-증기, 산소-온도 및 증기-온도의 조합으로 동시 변화시킬 때의 가스화에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 산소량이 증가할수록 CO와 H$_2$ 생성량은 증가한 후 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며 증기량이 증가할수록 H$_2$ 생성량은 130$0^{\circ}C$부근까지 증가한 후 130$0^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 서서히 감소하였으며, CO 생성량은 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 국내산 아스팔트의 경우 산소/연료비 0.92~1.01, 증기/연료비 0.18~0.49 및 가스화기 온도 1250~132$0^{\circ}C$의 영역에서 가스화 성능이 가장 좋은 것으로 나타났다.

The characteristics of the fuel quantity, injection rate and macro spray development was investigated under a range of diesel fuel temperatures. The actual injection quantity decreased despite the same signal of the injection start and injection duration as the fuel temperature decreased. The injection rate measurements confirmed that the actual injection commencement was delayed and the actual injection duration was shortened under lower fuel temperature conditions, which explains why the injection quantity decreased. Spray tip penetration with a lower fuel temperature was longer than that with a higher fuel temperature due to the deteriorated atomization. As a pre-test for the combustion experiment under low temperature conditions, piston targeting with pilot injection was accomplished, which showed that the fuel droplet from pilot injection was introduced into the crevice area. This suggests that the pilot injection quantity and timing should be chosen with careful consideration for actual applications.

This study performs several experiments on a newly developed temperature safety system that can be used for residential building heating systems, the heat source of which is derived from a conventional fuel cell. Prior to this, the hot water made from a fuel cell was not used in residential housing but just went to waste. The present safety system is installed in the current underfloor heating system. At first we used the CFD technique to develop a new heat exchanger. The fuel cell must satisfy the thermal conditions of the inlet temperature being $55^{\circ}C$ and the outlet temperature being $60^{\circ}C$. But variations in weather cause fluctuations in the heating water temperature. The experimental results show our new system capable of maintaining the temperature difference within a ${\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ range. So we believe that our new PFMFC fuel cell stack array is a good candidate for being used in residential heating systems.

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.

A numerical study was performed on the transient fuel temperatures of a military aircraft stationed under non-operating static condition. Numerical calculation was peformed by an explicit method using modified Dufort-Frankel scheme. It was assumed that the non-operating aircraft is subjected to repeated daily cycles of air temperature with the solar radiation and wind speed corresponding to the 1 % hot day ambient condition. And, the aircraft was assumed to be in turbulent flow. The convective heat transfer coefficient for turbulent flow on the flat plate suggested by Eckert was employed to calculate heat transfer between the aircraft surface and the ambience. The energy conservation equation on fuel was used as governing equation for this analysis. As a result of this analysis, the wing tank temperature showed the highest temperature and the largest rate of temperature changes among fuel tanks. The results of this analysis could be used as initial foe] temperatures for analysis of the transient fuel temperatures in various flight missions. Also, this analysis method could be used to analysis and design of an aircraft thermal energy management system.
