본 연구에서는 단면설계 및 열 교환 장치 위치 변경을 통해 온실의 구조 변경을 진행하였으며, 선행연구를 통해 개발된 모델을 근간으로 하여 개선 여부에 따른 온실 내부 환경을 예측하였다. 단면형상과 열 교환 장치의 개선 후 유속 변화에 따른 시뮬레이션 분석을 진행하였으며, 이 때 온도와 균일도는 각각 평균 0.65℃, 0.75%p 상승함을 확인하였다. 해석대상 온실과 같은 소규모 온실의 경우 방열관의 난방성능 개선보다 FCU에 의해 형성되는 공기 유동이 균일한 환경 조성에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다. 개선 전·후 온실에 환기시스템 적용 시 공기 유동 특성 분석을 위해 시뮬레이션 분석을 진행하였다. 공기 유동과 공기령은 유사한 분포를 보였으며, 개선 후 온실의 공기령이 개선 전 온실 대비 18초낮게 나타났다. 개선 전·후 온실 시뮬레이션 분석 결과 전체적으로 개선된 온실에서의 평균온도 및 온도 균일도 상승, 최대편차 감소 등 내부 환경의 균일성이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 선행연구로 개발된 모델은 형상 변경, 열 교환 장치 위치 변경 등에 따라 변화하는 온실 내부 환경을 예측할 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 온실 설계, 온실 내 난방시스템 설계 등의 분야에 적용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

대기오염물질과 온실가스 배출량을 저감 시키기 위한 배기 후처리 장치에 대한 연구는 활발히 진행 중이지만 그 중 선박용 입자상물질/질소산화물(PM/NOx) 동시저감 장치에서는 엔진에 미치는 배압 및 필터 담체 교체에 대한 문제가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 PM/NOx를 동시저감 할 수 있는 일체형 장치의 최적 설계를 위해 장치 내부 유동과 입·출구 압력을 통한 배압의 변화를 연구하여 적절한 기준을 제시하였다. Ansys Fluent를 활용하여 디젤미립자필터(DPF) 및 선택적촉매환원법(SCR)에 다공성 매체 조건을 적용하였고 공극률은 30 %, 40 %, 50 %, 60 % 및 70 %로 설정하였다. 또한, 엔진 부하에 따른 Inlet 속도를 경계 조건으로 7.4 m/s, 10.3 m/s, 13.1 m/s 및 26.2 m/s로 적용하여 배압에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. CFD 분석 결과, 장치의 입구 온도 보다 입구 속도에 따른 배압의 변화율이 크고 최대 변화율은 27.4 mbar였다. 그리고 모든 경계 조건에서의 배압이 선급 기준인 68 mbar를 초과하지 않았기 때문에 1800 kW 선박에 적합한 장치로 평가되었다.
