The propulsion system of space launch vehicle generates thrust by supplying oxidizer and fuel to combustion chamber. KSLV-II 2nd stage engine, currently under development by KARI, is to use liquid oxygen as a oxidizer and JET-A1 as a fuel. The 2nd stage pump-fed engine is mainly composed of combustion chamber, turbo-pump and engine supply system. To develop liquid propulsion engine, the development of combustion chamber must be preceded. For performance validation of the combustion chamber, the designed and manufactured combustion chamber should be tested in combustion chamber test facility (CCTF). The detailed design for the planned CCTF in Naro Space Center was conducted. The oxidizer supply system modeling using AMESim was performed based on the results of the detailed design, and the oxidizer supply characteristics was analyzed in this paper.

최근 국내의 에너지 수요는 특히 전기에너지 분야에서 급격한 증가추세를 보여왔으며 그 결과 전력생산을 위한 화석연료 중 특히 석탄의 사용량은 해가 갈수록 증가하였으며 이에 따라 다량의 대기오염물질과 온실가스 등이 발생하고 있어서 미래의 석탄 연소시스템들은 높은 열효율과 최소의 대기오염물질 배출을 필요로 하고 있다. (중략)

화력 발전소의 주 연료로 사용되는 석탄은 1차 공기에 의해 노내로 이송되어 연소되게 된다. 연소에 필요한 1차 공기량은 연소되는 탄의 종류와 급탄기로 보내는 급탄량에 의해 결정되고, 1차 공기량 제어는 연소에 영향을 주며, 역화와 과열 방지를 위해 적절한 제어가 요구된다. 특히 단일 탄종이 아닌 여러 탄종을 연소하는 화력 발전소에서는 탄종에 따라서 그리고 연소되는 탄량에 따라서 미분기로 들어가는 1차 공기량을 변화시켜야만 한다. 본 논문에서는 2종류의 탄을 연소하는 발전소에 대해 연소탄종에 따른 1차 공기량 제어 로직을 구현하고, 구현한 로직에 의한 1차 공기량 제어 결과를 통해 구현한 제어 로직의 효용성을 보인다.

The purpose of this study is to understand the characteristics of unburned carbon (UBC) and NOx emissions for pulverized coal when air staging combustion is applied. A two-staged drop tube furnace capable of applying air staging combustion was designed and installed. The combustion of sub-bituminous (Tanito) has been investigated. UBC and the NOx concentration were measured under various temperatures and stoichiometric ratios in unstaged and staged combustion. As a result, UBC decreased and the NOx concentration increased with an increase in stoichiometric ratio and temperature. In particular, the NOx reduction mechanism was activated when the temperature in the fuel rich zone increased. Both UBC and the NOx concentration decreased as the temperature increased in the fuel rich zone. A high NOx reduction effect was obtained, compared to the UBC increase, when the air staging technique was applied.

액체추진제 로켓엔진에서 분사기의 미립화 및 혼합 특성과 그에 따른 연소 특성은 성능과 안정성을 결정하는 중요한 파라미터이며 분사기는 제한된 설계 조건하에서 최대의 열방출율을 발휘하도록 설계되어야 한다. 여기서 연소효율은 연료와 산화제의 혼합특성과 충돌 분무의 미립화의 정도에 의해 결정되므로 충돌 분무 유동성의 혼합, 미립화 특성과 이에 따른 인조성능 특성을 명확하게 밝힘으로써 최대 엔진성능을 위한 설계가 가능하게 된다. 분사기의 설계에는 분사요소형태, 분사공의 형상 및 유동시스템 등이 포함되며 특히 분사요소 형태의 선택에는 추진제, 연소실냉각방법, 연소실 형상, 자동조건 및 엔진의 수명 등이 중요한 제한조건으로 고려된다. 이런 형태의 분사 요소들 중, 충돌형 분사기는 저장성 추진제를 사용하는 중, 저추력의 액체추진제 로켓엔진에 주로 사용된다. 이 분사형태는 미립화 성능이 높지 않고, 분사공 직경 및 운동량비에 따른 혼합성능이 만감하며 blow apart 등에 의한 열부하 혹은 안정성에 대한 문제가 있으나 양호한 혼합효율, 신뢰성과 제작의 용이함으로 인하여 광범위하게 사용된다.

We made two injectors that were equal to all design except for existence or nonexistence of swirl chamber of fuel part, because we want to find cooling characteristics at the injector face according to existence or non existence of swirl chamber of fuel part. And we set regenerative cooling channel in injector face for protecting injector face for prolonged combustion time. Two injectors were performed hot firing test, and then we compared cooling characteristics of two injectors. Also we compared O/F ratio effects on cooling characteristics and combustion characteristics.

In order to investigate the reduction of NO emissions, natural gas was fueled for two-stage combustion apparatus. NO and CO emissions were described by five variables: total air ratio, primary air ratio, secondary air injection position, secondary air injection velocity, and swirl ratio. It was mainly observed that, as the primary air ratios of 0 and 0.4 NO emission decreased with increasing the secondary air injection position and secondary air injection velocity. The effect of weak swirl on NO emission was found to be insignificant.

In this work, the flow and combustion characteristics using a 3-D numerical simulation was evaluated for a shale gas fueled combustor in a commercial class gas turbine. The Standard k-e turbulence model, 2 step methane oxidation mechanism, Finite rate/Eddy dissipation reaction model, DTRM radiation model were employed and validated well at the baseline condition (Natural Gas, Pilot Ratio 0.2). Based on the validated models, the combustion characteristics of shale gas was evaluated for three pilot ratios cases. It was found that NOx concentrations for all shale gas cases were less than the that for city gas, which imply that, at the selected PRs, the condition for combustion stability is satisfied. In addition, for higher PR, whereas the average temperatures at the exit are the same, the NOx increases. It means that diffusion combustion portion increases due to the higher PR.

This paper presents a numerical investigation of the Deflagration to Detonation Transition (DDT) of flame acceleration by a shock wave in combustible gas mixture. A model consisting of the reactive compressible Navier-Stokes equations is used. The effects of viscosity, thermal conduction, species diffusion, and chemical reactions are included. Using this model, the generation of hot spots by repeated shock and flame interaction in front and back of flame and the change of detonation occurrence by various shock intensities (Ms=1.1, 1.2, 1.3) are studied. The simulations show that as the incident shock intensity increases, the Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instability becomes stronger and DDT occurrence time is reduced.

A methanol reformer was designed and fabricated using a CuO-ZnO low temperature shift catalyst, and its operation characteristics have been studied for the phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC) power generation system. The type of reactor was annular Methanol was consumed both for heating and for reforming fuel. Contents of carbon monoxide produced from the reformer increased as the reaction temperatures increased, but decreased as the mole ratios of water to methanol(H$_2$O/CH$_3$OH) increased. At steady state operating conditional, temperature profile of the catalytic reactor of the reformer was well coincide with the model equation, and it took 50 minutes from start to the rated condition of the reformer. When the system was operated at 4/4 and 1/4 of load, thermal efficiencies of the system were 72.3% and 77%, respectively. When the PAFC system was operated with reformed gas in the range of 62 V-37.6 V and 0-147 A, the trend of I-V curve showed a typical fuel tell characteristic. At steady state condition, the flow rates of reforming and combustion methanol were 88.1 mol/h and 50.1 mol/h, respectively.
