In this, three types of natural gas were employed to investigate the effect of low-calorific natural gas on the performance of and emissions from a heavy-duty CNG engine. The performance and emission characteristics were analyzed by conducting a full-load test, WHSC mode test, and WHTC mode test. The results showed that the torque of low-calorific natural gas with $9,800kcal/Nm^3$ of higher heating value decreased by 4.4 compared to that of the current natural gas with $10,400kcal/Nm^3$ of heating value. With low-calorific fuels, CO, $CO_2$, and $NO_x$ emissions decreased. However, THC emissions increased. According to the WHSC and WHTC mode test results, the thermal efficiency increased and the emission characteristics showed a similar trend to the full-load test results. Low-calorific natural gases cause a decrease in torque at full-load operation conditions and an increase in hydrocarbon emissions.

저발열량 석탄가스의 thermal/fuel NOx 생성특성과 화염 안정성을 규명하기 위한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 저발열량 합성 연료 가스는 일산화탄소, 수소, 질소 및 암모니아를 천연가스 연료와 동일한 입열량을 가지도록 혼합하여 만들었고 , 합성가스는 평면 화염 버너를 공급하여 태웠다. 특정한 합성가스에 대해 당량비를 변화시켜 가며, 비화 또는 역화에 의한 화염안정성을 규명하였고 안정된 화염 영역을 정의하였다. 저발열향 합성가스의 연소시 발생하는 thermal 및 fuel NOx를 측정하여 천연가스 연소시의 경우와 비교하였다.

IGCC 가스터빈의 연료로는 주로 CO와 H$_2$ 가연성분이 대부분인 석탄과 중사유 가스를 사용하며, 발열량은 천연가스의 1/5~1/10정도이다[1]. 이러한 증발열량 가스연료는 기존의 천연가스나 석유를 연소연료로 사용한 발전시스템에 그대로 적용되어 사용하는데는 무리가 따른다. 이는 천연가스나 석유에 비해 중, 저발열량의 연소특성이 매우 다를 수 있기 때문이다.(중략)

대부분의 산업용 가스터빈은 고발열량의 액체 및 가스연료를 사용하도록 설계되었다. 그러나 이러한 고발열량 에너지원인 석유나 천연가스등은 자원의 고갈, 가격문제 및 환경문제 등으로 인해 점차적으로 사용량이 줄어들 전망이다. 그러므로, 최근 들어 석유 및 천연가스를 대체할 수 있는 대체연료에 대한 맡은 연구가 이루어지고 있으며, 그 중에서도 중발열량 또는 저발열량 연료인 석탄가스 및 중잔사유 가스의 활용성에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고있다.(중략)

Internal combustion engines running on syngas, which can be obtained from biomass or organic wastes, are expected to be one of the suitable alternatives for power generation, because they are environment-friendly and do not contribute to the depletion of fossil fuels. However, syngas has variable compositions and a lower heating value than pure natural gas, owing to which the combustion conditions need to be adjusted in order to achieve stable combustion. In this study, a gas that has the same characteristics as syngas, such as low heating value (LHV), was produced by mixing $N_2$ with compressed natural gas (CNG). In addition, this study investigates the combustion characteristics of syngas when it is mixed with hydrogen in a ratio ranging from 10% to 30% with a constant LHV of total gas.

As environmental friendly energy system, distributed micro gasturbine is focused on new energy source for overcoming brand new construction area of power generation. This distributed micro gasturbine system has the powerful characteristics as belows; 1) environmental friendly features NOx < 9 ppm, noise < 65 db 2) various fuel flexbility which is used such as natural gas, diesel, low calory new & renewable fuel, kerosene. 3) high specific output power based on small area and is avilable for very easy and compact installation. There are many new installation sites in USA and Japan from 1998. On the other hand the exhisting large power system was constructued by the sea side, this compact power system is now installed by enduser in downtown area and supplying combined heat & power, has the various apllication on-site power generation. In recently, there is the very important issue for new & reliablbe energy development and spreading out. This paper represent as belows for important system characteristics; 1) grid connection modeling 2) system operation characteristics 3) on-site operation result and evaluation output of power quality analysis.
