IGCC (Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle) plants are among the most advanced and effective systems for electric energy generation. From a control perspective, IGCC plants represent a significant challenge: complex reactions, highly integrated control to simultaneously satisfy production, controllability, operability and environmental objectives. While all these requirements seem clearly to demand a multivatiable, model predictive approach, not many applications can be easily found in the literature. This paper describes the IGCC dynamic simulation that is capable of simulating plant startup, shutdown, normal, and abnormal operation and engineering studies. This high fidelity dynamic models contain the detailed process design data to produce realistic responses to process operation and upset. And the simulation is used by engineers to evaluate the transient performance and produce graphical information indicating the response of the process under study conditions.

Waste heat recovery process designs and performance analyses are conducted on the IGCC(Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle) power plants integrated with two different coal gasification and gas cleanup processes by Shell and GE/Texaco. Through the analysis results, the present study provides the steam integration concept between the HRSG and the chemical processes of IGCC power plant, and investigates the effect of steam integration on the power generation of IGCC power plant. The present simulation results show less steam power output and higher overall IGCC efficiency of the Shell-based power plant than the GE/Texaco.

An integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) system has been attracting attention due to its increased energy conversion efficiency and ability to treat various carbonaceous materials. IGCC is also expected to play an important role in the future supply of hydrogen energy. The use of a palladium-based membrane to separate the hydrogen from the synthesis gas stream has been intensively studied due to its exceptional hydrogen-separating capability. However, theoretical research on hydrogen separation is still an unfamiliar area in Korea. First-principle density functional theory was applied in this study to investigate the dissociative adsorption of hydrogen onto a palladium surface. The stability of hydrogen on the surface was theoretically evaluated with various adsorption configurations, partial pressures and temperatures. Further theoretical and experimental studies were also suggested to find a more hydrogen-selective material.

This paper presents a data acquisition and monitoring system for a gas turbine. The proposed system entitled C-Tune DAS plays an important role to make an analysis of the real-time operation of the gas turbine under maintenance. The designed LabVIEW based software is divided into three parts according to their original functions, i.e., data acquisition, data analysis with display, and data storage. The data acquisition part receives data from a PMS (Plant Management System) server and two cFPs (Compact-Field Point). To verify the validity of the developed system, it is applied to gas turbines in the combined cycle power plant in Korea.

Fatigue behavior of shear joints between the combined reinforced concrete(RC) and the reinforced steel fiber concrete(SFRC) specimens has been experimentally investigated. Experimental parameters used are the amount of steel fiber and the type of shear joint. Six specimens have been tested under static load, and eight specimens have been subjected to the fatigue load in a range of 50 % and 5 % of the ultimate static load. The purpose of this research is to propose an empirical formula for fatigue shear behavior of the combined RC and SFRC structures on the basis of experimental result. It can be observed from experimental results that addition of steel fibers to concrete specimen increases the static ultimate load by approximately 25 %, enhances the fatigue behavior, and also reduces vertical and lateral displacements at the shear joint for a given load cycle after the occurrence of first crack.

Purpose： In this study, we investigated the possible motor pathways of hemiplegic stroke patients usin combined TMS and BOLD fMRI approach and evaluated the correlation between TMS a fMRI methods. Method： Four subjects, who demonstrated left hemiplegia after stroke, are included. TMS was performed using a Dantec Mag2 stimulator (Dantec Company, USA) in single puls mode with figure eight-shaped coil. Following TMS localization, The BOLD T2＊-weight images were acquired with echo planar imaging sequence (TR = 1.2 sec, TE = 60 msec, and flip angle = 90). Motor activation was studied by means of a repetitive fing flexion-extension task. The stimulation protocol comprised 10 cycles of alternating activati and rest (10 images per cycle). Total 60 cycles were performed and each cycle take abou 1.5 sec. The resulting images were then analyzed with STIMULATE (CMRR, U, o Minnesota) to generate functional maps using a student t-test (p < 0.0005) and cluste analysis.

This study analyzed the design performance of the bottoming system of combined cycle power plants adopting a single-pressure once-through heat recovery steam generator with reheat. A computer program was constructed and parametric analyses were carried out to present the criteria for determining the reheat pressure and the location of the starring point of the reheater in the HRSG. The performance of the bottoming system was presented for the range from high subcritical to supercritical pressures. It was founded that the power of the bottoming system can be as high as that of the present triple-pressure bottoming system even with a higher exhaust gas temperature. A requirement for this high performance is a proper arrangement of the reheater.

Several kinds of vibration problems have been frequently encountered in industrial vertical pumps in spite of their widespread use for long time. In fact, vibration problems of the vertical pumps are so complicated and difficult with compared to those of the horizontally mounted pumps that more careful attention should be taken for solving the vibration problems. This paper introduces a case study experienced from troubleshooting for excessive vibration occurred in a vertical-type condensate pump for combined cycle power plants. Subsynchronous whirl vibration was caused by the instability of the guide bearing whose lubricant is water. A newly modified guide bearing has solved the vibration problem, which should be the best countermeasure.

Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant converts coal to syngas, which is mainly composed with hydrogen and carbon monoxide, by the gasification process and produces electric power by the gas and steam turbine combined cycle power plant. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of gasification process to type and structure of gasifier. For this purpose, the performance characteristics of gasification reaction are analyzed with the operation characteristic of pilot-scale 2-stage coal gasifier. It is found that gasification reaction, floating characteristic of melted slag, particle stick of inside of the gasifier, particle stick and deposit of Syngas cooler are the causes in the different performance characteristics.

Various R&D programs for rocket-based combined cycle (RBCC) engines have progressed worldwide for the space development and the defense applications. As a way toward indigenous domestic RBCC program, a preliminary design of flight test conditions was studied in this study for a sub-scale RBCC engine using a sounding rocket. Launch and flight profiles were calculated for several booster options and compared with that of HyShot II program. The result shows that the Korea Sounding Rocket-II (KSR-II) is a proper candidate to perform the flight test available in Korea. The recommend flight test conditions with KSR-II are Mach 6.0 with a test vehicle of 230 kg and Mach 7.4 with 50 kg. Present study will soon be followed by a design of sub-scale RBCC for a flight test using a sounding rocket.
