환기부족 구획화재에서 CO의 생성은 온도 및 조성에 큰 영향을 받으며, 구획 내의 체류시간 및 이동경로에 따라 복잡한 현상을 경험하게 된다. 그 결과 구획 내부의 CO 생성특성을 실험을 통해 상세하게 규명하는 것은 많은 한계가 있다. 이러한 배경 하에 본 연구에서는 환기부족 구획화재의 조건에서 총괄당량비에 따른 CO의 생성특성에 관한 수치해석 연구를 수행하였다. PSR(완전혼합반응기) code와 헵탄연료의 상세화학반응기구가 사용되었다. 주요 변수로서 체류시간, 온도, 반응물과 생성물의 혼합정도 그리고 열손실 등이 CO의 생성에 미치는 독립적 영향을 검토하였다. 추가로 주요반응에 의한 CO의 몰 생성률 및 소모율과 CO의 반응경로 분석을 통해 환기부족 구획화재의 조건에서 구체적인 CO 생성특성에 관한 이해가 시도되었다.

Gas generator should be adopted either fuel rich or oxidizer rich combustion because of the temperature restriction to avoid any possible thermal damages to turbine blade. This study focuses to model the non-equilibrium chemical reaction of kerosene/LOx with detailed kinetics developed by Dagaut using Perfectly stirred reactor(PSR) assumption. To predict more reliable species fraction and other gas properties, Frenklach's soot model was added to Dagaut's detailed kinetics.

The combustion temperature in gas generator should be kept below around 1,000K to avoid any possible thermal damages to turbine blade by adopting either fuel rich or oxidizer rich combustion. Thus, non-equilibrium chemical reaction dominates in the gas generator. Meanwhile, Kerosene is a compounded fuel mixed with various types of hydrocarbon elements and difficult to model the chemical kinetics. This study focus to model the non-equilibrium chemical reaction of kerosene/LOX with detailed kinetics developed by Dagaut using PSR(Perfectly stirred reactor) assumption. Also, droplet evaporation time is taken into account by calculating for the residence time of droplet and by decoupling reaction temperature from the reactor temperature. In Dagaut’s surrogate model for kerosene, chemical kinetics of kerosene consists of 1592 reaction steps with 207 chemical species. The comparison of calculation results with experimental data could provide very reliable and accurate numbers in the prediction of combustion gas temperature, species fraction and other gas properties.

A chemical reactor model (CRM) was developed for a jet stirred reactor (JSR) to predict the emission of exhaust such as NOx. In this study, a two-PSR model was chosen as the chemical reactor model for the JSR. The predictions of NO formation in lean premixed methane-air combustion in the JSR were carried out by using CHEMKIN and GRI 3.0 methane-air combustion mechanism which include the four NO formation mechanisms. The calculated results were compared with Rutar's experimental data for the validation of the model. The effects of important parameters on NO formation and the contributions of the four NO pathways were investigated. In the flame region, the major pathway is the prompt mechanism, and in the post flame region, the major pathway is the Zelodovich mechanism. Under the lean premixed condition, the N2O mechanism is the important pathway in both flame and postflame regions.

The purpose of this research was to study the kinetics of a packed bed aerobic biofilm process. Experiments were carried out by feeding an aerated packed bed reactor with a synthetic wastewater. The reactor packed with glass beads as media had a nominal hydraulic detention time of 5 hours. The flow pattern in the reactor was determined by a tracer test using a NaCl solution to be a completely-mixed type. The results of the research showed that the F/M ratio in the reactor was almost constant since the the biomass increased due to the growth of biofilm as the volumetric organic loading increased. It was also proved theoretically and experimentally that packed bed aerobic biofilm process could be analyzed by the kinetics of completely-mixed activated sludge process with sludge recycle.

The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition(HCCI) combustion is currently under intensive investigation because of its potential to increase thermal efficiency while greatly decreasing NOx and p.M. In order to account for the thermal boundary layer effects, the two-zone model has been developed to analyze the combustion characteristics of HCCI engine. The detailed chemistry are represented by the GRI mechanism 3.0 involving 53 species and 325reactions. The present combustion model has been validated against the experimental results. Computations are also made for the wide-range operating conditions of HCCI engine.

The oxidation of surrogate mixtures for gasoline fuel was studied numerically in perfectly stirred reactor(PSR) to develope the needed detailed reaction mechanism. The reaction mechanism was assembled with the mechanisms for the oxidation of iso-octane or kerosene. It was shown that the reaction model predicted reasonably well the concentration profiles of fuel and major species reported in the literature. As the addition of kerosene into iso-octane as fuel was increased, the concentrations of $C_2H_2$ and benzene became high. Especially benzene known as a carcinogen appeared at a very high concentration in the flue gases.

Kerosene and diesel are compounded fuels with various types of hydrocarbon elements and difficult to model the chemical kinetics. This study focuses on the prediction of the non-equilibrium reaction of fuel-rich combustion with detailed kinetics developed by Dagaut using PSR(perfectly stirred reactor) assumption. In Dagaut's surrogate model for kerosene and diesel, chemical kinetics consists of 2352 reaction steps with 298 chemical species. Also, Frenklach's soot model was implemented along with detailed kinetics to calculate the gas properties of fuel rich combustion efflux.

운전 온도 $35^{\circ}C$, 평균 유기물부하 $3.1{\;}kgCOD/m^3/day$ 및 수리학적체류시간 10일에서 혐기성 연속회분식공정에 의한 분뇨처리를 수행하였다. 공정의 평가는 대조 소화조로 완전혼합형의 소화조와 병행하여 수행되었다. 본 실험에서 분뇨는 고농도의 암모니아성 질소와 침전성 고형물을 함유하고 있음에도 불구하고 희석 없이 소화가 가능하였다. 혐기성 연속회분식공정에서 고형물은 급속하게 증가하여 완전혼합형의 대조 소화조에 비하여 소화조내 고형물(biomass)의 농도가 2.4배로 증가하였고, 가스발생량에 있어서도 대조 소화조에 비해 현격한 증가를 보였으며 그 증가율은 205~220%에 달했다. 부가적인 침전 시설이 없이도 혐기성 연속회분식공정의 유출수질이 대조 소화조 보다 높게 나타났는데 상징액 기준으로 휘발성고형물 제거율은 혐기성 연속회분식공정이 대조 소화조 보다 12~14% 높았다. 한편, 혐기성 연속회분식공정의 운전인자로 반응/침강비(R/T ratio)를 조사한 결과 R/T비가 1인 경우가 3의 경우보다 가스발생량, 메탄함량 및 유기물 제거율이 약간 높았으나 큰 차이는 없었다. 위의 실험결과들로부터 혐기성 연속회분식공정은 고농도의 암모니아성 질소와 침전성 유기물을 함유하고 있는 분뇨의 처리에 효과적이고 안정적인 공정으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate effects of solids content and mixing speed in treatment of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soils using a slurry-phase bioreactor. Performance results on slurry-phase bioremediation of diesel fuel contaminated soil were generated at the bench-scale level. The fate of TPH(Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) was evaluated in combination with biological treatment. Abiotic and biotic fate of the TPH were determined using soil not previously exposed to compounds in diesel fuel. The reactor volume for given throughput can be reduced by maximizing the solids content. Applications of 50% and 20% solids content(dry weight basis) were showed a little difference(57.5% : 61.6%) in biological TPH removal rate each other. Mixing and particle suspension are critical to desorption and biological degradation. In this standpoint, this study was performed using two mixing speed. When the reactor was operated at 70rpm, it had a better result in the particle suspension and TPH removal rate than the reactor with mixer rotated at 20rpm. In the reactor applied 20rpm, it was resulted in failure of particle suspension.
