In this study, a computer simulation of the three types of air distribution systems, open type system, aisle partition system and aisle containment system, to evaluate the applicability of the aisle partition system on a data center server room. The variables of the simulation were the height and location of the partition fixed on the top server rack. The energy efficiency of the air distribution systems were confirmed to be excellent in the order of the aisle containment system, aisle partition system, and open type system. In the cold aisle partition system, the height of the partition that can be effective in saving cooling energy by obstructing sufficient air recirculation was found to be more than 0.9m. In the hot aisle partition system, the height of the partition was found to be more than 0.8m.

우리 나라 축사는 생산효율 제고를 위하여 대형화, 밀폐화, 고밀도화, 자동화 경향이 뚜렷하다. 대형의 밀폐된 고밀도 축사는 쾌적한 실내환경을 전제로 하기 때문에 기계적으로 실내환경을 적절히 제어하지 않으면 안된다. 제한된 공간에 먼지, 병원성 미생물, 유해기체, 수분이나 열의 과도한 집적은 생산과 재생산효율에 심각한 영향을 미친다. 그러므로 축사내 생산주체인 가축과 작업인이 쾌적한 실내환경에서 생산활동을 할 수 있도록 열적, 화학적/생물학적 환경을 물리적으로 제어하지 않으면 안된다. 본 연구는 실험축사내 가축이 일정한 열을 발생할 때 실내공기의 유동형태를 예측하기 위해서 수행하였다. 이 연구의 결과를 실내환경제어를 위한 환기시스템 책략 개발의 기초자료로 활용할 수 있다. 실험축사내의 공기유동을 예측하기 위해 Body-Fitted Coordinate(BFC)의 격자배열과 k-$\varepsilon$ 난류모형 및 SIMPLE계열 solution scheme을 사용하였으며, 예측의 유효성 검정은 Boon(1978)의 실험결과를 이용하였다. 예측한 공기유동의 형태와 실험한 공기유동의 형태를 비교한 결과 대체로 만족할만한 결과를 얻었다. 그러나 유입공기의 온도가 1$0^{\circ}C$인 경우의 공기유동은 실험유동형태와 약간의 차이가 있었다. 즉, 실험에서는 수평슬롯으로 유입 된 공기가 바로 아래로 굴절되어 유동하였으나, 예측의 결과는 일정 거리로 수평방향으로 유동하다가 아래로 굴절하였다. 이런 유동의 차이는 k-$\varepsilon$ 난류모형 자체가 경험적으로 부력에 민감하게 반응않는 결함이 원인이 될 수도 있으며, 실험의 부적절한 수행이 원인이 될 수도 있다. 이 유동의 경우 Reynolds 수가 3,000정도의 난류이며, 완전발달유동 (fully-developed flow)이므로 관성력 (inertia force)이 부력 (buoyancy force)보다 커, 일정거리 수평으로 유동하다가 아래로 굴절할 수도 있기 때문이다. 앞으로 이를 규명하기 위한 보다 깊이 있는 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이다.

현재, 육지에서 필요한 천연 가스 (NG)의 얻기 위한 방법으로 공기 가열식 기화기의 사용이 증가하고 있다. 특히, 파이프라인에 의해 도달될 수 없는 거리가 멀리 떨어진 소외된 지역까지 보낼 수 있기 때문에 소형 위성기지의 역할은 대단히 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 소형 위성기지의 LNG는 인수기지에서 탱크로리를 이용하여 배달되고 그 후에 위성기지에서 기화과정을 통하여 각 수요처로 보내어진다. 공기 가열식 기화기는 LNG 인수기지 외의 소형 위성기지 단위에서 최근 많이 개발되고 사용되고 있는 기화기의 종류 중 하나라고 할 수 있다1). 효율적인 공기 가열식 기화기를 개발하기 위하여, 핀이 없는 경우와 핀이 8개이고 핀의 길이가 55 mm인 공기 가열식 기화기를 사용하여 실험을 진행하였고 그리고 나서 두 가지 유형의 기화기를 비교하였다. 실험조건은 기화기의 길이 변화와 여러 가지 주위 조건(온도, 습도, 풍속)을 변화하였다. 실험에 적용된 주위 온도는 각 계절별 온도와 동일한 온도를 적용하였다. 본 실험에서 나타내고자 한 공기가열식 기화기의 주요 특성은 각 계절별 조건에 따른 입구 측과 출구 측의 온도차를 비교하는 것이다. 액화천연가스(LNG)를 가지고 실험을 하는 것은 위험성이 있어 특성이 비슷하면서 안전한 $LN_2$를 사용하여 실험을 진행하여 핀을 가지는 기화기가 핀이 없는 기화기보다는 좋다는 결과를 확인할 수 있었다.

Air drying equipment was built as a device for reduction of dewatered cake from wastewater and waterworks sludge and to reproduce it by reusable matter. Dewatered cake was supplied into the air drying equipment which operated by air velocity of 80 m/sec, air rate 30 $m^3/min$ and air temperature of $40^{\circ}C$, and dried to produce the dried powder. The air drying equipment was composed of the air ejector which made high-speed fluid field, and cyclone which made circling fluid field. Dewatered cake was crushed at the high-speed zone as first step, and formed into dried powder of sphere shape by the collision between particles at the circling fluid zone.. Wastewater sludge with water content of 82.5 wt% was supplied 1.0 kg/min into air drying equipment and produced the dried powder which had the water content of 62.3 wt% and mass median diameter of 2.4 mm after process. At that time, it was analyzed that water removal rate was 0.1 $H_2O{\Delta}kg/min{\cdot}DS$ kg and air consumption was 170 $m^3/DS$ kg. Under same experimental conditions, when waterworks sludge was dried, water content of dried powder decrease to 47.5 wt% and mass median diameter decrease 2.1 mm and water removal rate increase 0.13 $H_2O{\Delta}kg/min{\cdot}DS$ kg. Air consumption increase 180 $m^3/DS$ kg with comparison to the results of wastewater sludge. Therefore, this technology was evaluated that drying the dewatered cake of waterworks sludge was more efficient than wastewater sludge, and also economical sludge handling technology due to drying the cake by only air.

A series of parametric investigations are performed in order to resolve the flow characteristic of a Quebec city stoker incinerator. The parameters considered in this study are five internal configurations of the Quebec city stoker itself and its modified ones, primary air velocity, the injection velocity and angle of the secondary air, and the reduction of the stoker exit area. A control-volume based finite-difference method by Patankar together with the power-law scheme is employed for discretization. The resolution of the pressure-velocity coupling is made by the use of SIMPLEC algorithm. The standard, two equation, k-$\varepsilon$ model is incorporated for the closure of turbulence. The size of recirculation region, turbulent viscosity, the mass fraction of the secondary air and pressure drop are calculated in order to analyze the characteristics of flow field. The results are physically acceptable and discussed in detail. The flow field of the Quebec city stoker shows the strong recirculation zone together with the high turbulence intensity over the upper part of the incinerator.

우리나라의 도시폐기물 소각로는 화격자 위에 폐기물을 공급하고 화격자 밑에서 공기를 공급하는 스토커식 소각로를 대부분 채택하고 있다. 이러한 스토커 소각로 연소실내에서는 매우 복잡한 연소현상이 발생하는데, 연소실로 투입된 쓰레기는 먼저 건조부에서 수분의 건조가 일어나고, 화격자의 구동에 의해 쓰레기가 혼합 및 이송되면서 열분해, 가스화, 가연성분의 탈휘발화 및 연소, 일부 고정탄소의 표면연소 등의 반응이 일어난다. 그리고 1,2차 연소실에서는 휘발분 및 비산된 고체의 연소가 일어나는데, 이때 대류 및 복사열전달 등의 복잡한 현상을 수반하는 유동장이 형성된다. 더욱이 불균질한 특성을 갖는 쓰레기층 내에서의 복잡한 현상으로 인하여 발생하는 경계조건 설정의 불확실성으로 연소실내의 연소 현상을 전산해석하는 데에는 상당한 어려움이 있다.(중략)

Eco-friendly magnesium-air battery is a kind of metal-air battery known as a primary battery with a very high theoretical discharge capacity. This battery is also called a metal-fuel cell from the viewpoint of using oxygen in the atmosphere as a cathode active material and magnesium alloy as a fuel. Since battery performance is determined by the properties of the magnesium alloy used as a anode, more research and development of the magnesium alloy electrode as a anode material are required in order to commercialize it as a high-performance battery. In this study, the commercialized magnesium alloys(AZ31, AZ61) were selected and then electrochemical measurements and discharge test were conducted. Electrochemical properties of magnesium alloys were investigated by OCP changes, Tafel parameters and CV measurement, and the feasibilities of AZ61 alloy with excellent discharge capacity(1410mAhg^-1) as electrode materials were evaluated through CC discharge experiments.

As the environmental pollution can be greatly reduced and the waste heat can be also recovered through a combustion of municipal solid waste, the incineration begins to be highlighted recently in our country. But it is very difficult to be operated with constant combustion conditions for a long time as the domestic waste is composed of various components, contains a large percentage of water, and has a low heating value. Therefore, the cold flow test and partial hot flow test were conducted in the incinerator by use of injection angles of a secondary air affecting fluid flow as the first action to maintain the optimum combustion conditions. A model to a scale of 1:10 was designed and manufactured through the similarity of model and prototype flows. Velocities and temperatures were measured through the experiment. From the results, fluid flows of secondary air obtained from partial hot flow test correspond almost well with those of main flow obtained from cold flow test. Consequently, injection angles of secondary air are proved to affect main flow decisively.
