Diverging channel from gas burner exit to the inlet section of Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) has been re-designed for 1 MW system. To improve the uniformity in velocity and temperature distribution of existing design(Case A and B) of 300 kW HRSG system, two additional test geometries have been chosen for the numerical simulation. At first, gas burner exit section has been centered to the inlet section of boiler(Case C) and uniformity has been improved considerably. Secondly, the diverging channel length can be further reduced for compact geometry with new guide vane design (Case D and E). Proposed design shows overall improvement in uniformity in velocity and temperature distribution compared to existing one.

The present study examined the possibility of $NO_{x}$ reduction in the high temperature industrial furnaces. duct burner of gas turbine cogeneration and two-stage gas turbine combustor. The experimental study was carried out for the diffusion flame of second stage combustor with the variations of oxygen concentration and supplying rate of hot exhaust gas from first stage combustor. It also examined the flammability range and $NO_{x}$ formation of the second stage combustor in which the fuel is supplying into the mixture of oxygen hot exhaust gas from first stage combustor. The results show that the enrichment of oxygen and increase of exhaust gas lead to increase the $NO_{x}$ up to 50 ppm with 23% $O_{2}$ condition.

Diverging channel from gas burner exit to the inlet section of Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) has been re-designed for 1 MW steam supply and power generation system. Three different test geometries have been chosen for the numerical simulation. The existing design for 300 kW HRSG system (CASE B) has been improved by geometry and position changes of inlet guide vanes along with gas velocity entrance angle at the diverging channel inlet (CASE C). Both cases has been compared with the case where hot combustion gas is directly injected without any guide vanes (CASE A). Improved design shows overall uniform velocity and temperature distribution compared to existing design.

In this work, the degradation of high-pressure superheater tubes exposed to the flame of a duct burner in a heat recovery steam generator of a district heating system was evaluated. To assess the deterioration of the used superheater tube, the microstructure, microhardness, and tensile properties were investigated by comparison to an unused tube. The study found that a fin bound at the outer surface of the used tube became fragile only in the location facing the flame. This indicates that the tube was directly exposed to the flame from the duct burner or underwent abnormal overheating. While the unused tube showed a uniform value in hardness and equiaxial grain structure, the used tube revealed a decrease in hardness up to 105 HV and an increase in grain size with a plate-like morphology in the location facing the flame. The coarsening of the grain structure by the flame weakened the mechanical properties of yield strength, tensile strength, and elongation.

The experimental study was carried out for the diffusion flame characteristics of second stage combustor with the variations of temperature and supplying rate of hot exhaust gas from first stage combustor. It also examined the flame structure and NOx formation of the second stage combustor in which the fuel(natural gas) is supplying into the mixture of oxygen hot exhaust gas from first stage combustor. The results show that the increasement of temperature and flow rate of exhaust gas lead to increase the NOx up to 30ppm with 19% $O_2$ condition

The present study examined the possibility of NOx reduction in the high temperature industrial furnaces, duct burner of gas turbine cogeneration and two-stage gas turbine combustor. The experimental study was carried out for the non-premixed flame of second stage combustor with the variations of oxygen concentration in the hot exhaust gas of first stage combustor. It also examined the flammability range, temperature and NOx, $CO_2$, $O_2$formation in the combustor with respect to oxygen concentration in which the fuel(natural gas) is supplying into the hot exhaust gas. The results show that the inner temperature of flame reaches 1,20$0^{\circ}C$ at EGR $O_2$23% and that 15ppm of NOx at EGR $O_2$15.5% increases up to 60ppm at EGR $O_2$23%. It is believed that Fenimore＇s prompt NOx mechanism is more influential on the NOx formation than Zeldovich＇s thermal NOx mechanism does.

Oxy-coal combustion for $CO_2$ capture in coal power plants entails a mode switching from air-firing to oxyfiring. In this study, procedure of the mode switching was investigated and discussed through experiments in pilot scale facilities: (1) a 0.3 $MW_{th}$ furnace with a vertical single burner and a FGR(Flue Gas Recirculation) system (2) a 1 $MW_{th}$ furnace with horizontal 4 burners and a FGR system. Principle of the mode switching was established and performed with control of FD fan, FGR fan, ID fan and oxygen flow rates. We have found that equivalence ratio in the oxy-firing mode should be increased more than that in the air-firing to achieve stable mode switching. Control of FD, ID and FGR fans should be performed carefully in the mode switching, in the sense of complete combustion and flame attachment. Moisture contents in the ash and the flue gas recycled to the primary oxidizer stream should be removed to prevent condensation, corrosion and duct clogging.

The characteristics of soot deposition on the cold wall in laminar diffusion flames have been numerically analyzed with a two-dimension with the FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator). In particular, the effects of surrounding air temperature and wall temperature have been discussed. The fuel for the flame is an ethylene ($C_2H_4$). The surrounding oxygen concentration is 35%. Surrounding air temperatures are 300K, 600K, 900K and 1200K. Wall temperatures are 300K, 600K and 1200K. The soot deposition length defined as the relative approach distance to the wall per a given axial distance is newly introduced as a parameter to evaluate the soot deposition tendency on the wall. The result shows that soot deposition length is increased with increasing the surrounding air temperatures and with decreasing the wall temperature. And the numerical results led to the conclusion that it is essential to consider the thermophoretic effect for understanding the soot deposition on the cold wall properly.

In this study, $20Nm^3/hr$ scale compact hydrogen generator which can be apply to the hydrogen station was tested for hydrogen station application. $20Nm^3/hr$ scale compact hydrogen generator was developed by upgrading concept of stacking plate reactor from former $20Nm^3/hr$ scale plate hydrogen generator. concepts for improving system efficiency and performance include such as idea of heat recovery from the exhaust, exhaust duct which is especially design for plate type reactor reinforcement of insulation, enlargement of heat exchange area of reactor, introduction of desulphurizer reactor and PROX rector in a compact design, introduction of back fire protection structure of plate burner and so on, We can learn that final prototype of scale-up $20Nm^3/hr$ scale compact hydrogen generator can be operated steadily in 100% road at which over 94% of methane conversion(S/C=3.75) was obtained. In case of making up the weak point, we expect that it is possible to apply to hydrogen station by way of showing an example.
