고분자전해질 연료전지(PEMFC)의 성능이 개선됨에 따라 생성물인 물과 열의 발생이 증가하고 이를 처리하기 위한 관리기법이 중요해지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 물 관리 기법으로 수소 재순환을 적용하였고, 수소 재순환 유량(flow rate)과 퍼지 간격(purge interval) 및 지속 시간(duration)이 연료전지의 성능에 미치는 영향에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. Purge 조건의 영향을 해석하기 위하여 수소극의 압력, 연료의 습도, 운전 간의 연료 이용 효율과 물 배출 양을 측정하였다. 수소 재순환 유량이 증가할수록 수소극 출구의 압력 저하로 인하여 스택 성능이 낮아졌다. Purge 조건에 따라서 물을 효과적으로 배출하지 못해 순간적인 전압 강하가 발생하거나 혹은 잦은 purge로 인해 수소극의 습도를 유지하지 못하여 성능이 점차적으로 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. Purge 조건 실험을 통하여 수소극의 습도를 유지하고 응축된 물을 충분히 배출할 수 있는 purge interval과 duration을 선정하였고, 이를 통하여 스택의 성능과 연료 이용 효율을 향상시킬 수 있었다.

The inspiratory flow rate of a human is changed with the amount of the workload. The flow characteristic is affected by the inspiratory flow rate. In the flow field of airway, the both of turbulence intensity and secondary flow affect the deposition pattern of particles which is important for the drug-aerosol targeting. Thus the analysis of the flow characteristic in a human airway is important. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the inspiratory flow rate on the flow characteristics in a human airway. The tubular airway is consistent with the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx and trachea. The relatively inspiratory flow rate is used at each case of human states regarding the workload. By the effect of geometric airway changes, transition to turbulent airflow after the larynx can occur with relaminarization further downstream. The low Reynolds number k-${\omega}$ turbulence model is used for analysis with flow regime. As the inspiratory flow rate is larger, the turbulence kinetic energy and secondary flow intensity increase in airway. On the other hand, the area of recirculation zone is smaller.

The conventional regenerative system has a high thermal efficiency as well as energy saving using the high preheated combustion air. in spite of these advantages, it can not avoid high nitric oxide emissions. Recently, flameless combustion has received much attention to solve these problems. In this research, numerical analysis is performed for flow-combustion phenomena in the self regenerative burner. In this analysis we used Fluent 6.0 code. the that is developed for commercial use, Methane gas is used as a fuel and two-step reaction model for methane and Zeldovich mechanism for NO generation are used. the velocity of the preheated combustion air is used as a parameter and we analyze the characteristics of flow-field, temperature distributions and NO emissions. Due to the increased recirculation rate, the maximum temperature of flame is significantly increased and NOx emissions is reduced.

The textile which is rotated in the tumbler dryer is dried by the heated air. the energy consumption for drying textile depends on various parameters. The objective of this study is to save the energy and the drying time. One of the various methods for energy saving is EGR(exhaust gas recirculation). We set the drying equipment for this study and perform the experimental study with the changes of the recirculation rate, the input power, and the air mass flow rate. We found the optimal drying conditions.

Swirling turbulent flows downstream of an abrupt axisymmetric expansion in a pipe are analyzed numerically by a second-order turbulence closure. Predictions for the flows without swirl and with strong swirl are obtained. The governing differential equations are discretized by finite volume approach. The results show that the on-axis recirculation induced by the strong swirl is correctly reproduced. The predictions for mean velocity components and turbulent normal stresses agree well with experimental data far downstream of expansion, but show large discrepancies in wall-bounded recirculation zone.

군수제 설계에 있어서 수제 설치 간격은 매우 중요한 인자이며 설치간격에 따라 수제역의 역흐름 및 재순환영역의 특성이 다양하게 변화할 뿐 만 아니라 수로 본류영역의 흐름에도 영향을 미친다. 수제간격에 따른 수제역과 수로흐름의 변화는 수제설치에 따른 하도변화, 국부세굴 및 하안 침식에 주요 원인이 될 것이므로 이에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 군수제의 적절한 수제간격 결정을 위한 기초자료 제공을 목적으로 수제설치로 인해 변화되는 수로와 수제역 흐름을 수리 실험을 통해 분석하였다. 실험조건은 수제 간격을 수제길이의 1배~12배 범위에 대해 12 조건을 수행하였으며 LSPIV 기법과 ADV를 이용하여 흐름장을 측정하였다. 실험결과, 수제역에는 수제간격이 수제길이의 세 배 이상에서는 두 개, 열 배 이상에서는 세 개의 소용돌이 흐름이 발생하였으며, 하안침식의 원인이 될 수 있는 역류속은 네 배 이상에서 접근유속의 20% 이상 감소되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 수로 본류의 유속은 수제설치로 인해 최대 1.3~2.0 배까지 증가하는데, 수제간격이 증가할수록 변화폭이 크게 증가하며 최대유속 발생위치는 수제간격의 0.7~0.8 하류 지점에서 측정되었다.

Self flue gas recirculation flow is an effective method for low NOx emission in the regenerative low NOx burner. The object of this study is to analyze the self flue gas recirculating flow by varying jet velocity of the combustion air. Fuel and air flow rates are fixed and combustion air jet nozzle diameters are 13, 6.5 and 5mm. The stoichiometric line is obtained from the concentration of the fuel using an acetone PLIF technique. It is found that the self flue gas recirculating flow is entrained into that line using a two color PIV technique. As the jet velocity of combustion air is increased, the flue gas entrainment rate into the stoichiometric line is increased. This result suggests that NOx emission can be reduced due to the effects of flue gas which is lowering the flame temperatures.

A new method to improve the efficiency of a hydrogen fuel cell system was introduced by using variable sonic/supersonic ejectors. To obtain the variable area ratio of the nozzle throat to ejector throat which controls the mass flow rate of the suction flow, the ejectors used a movable cylinder inserted into a conventional ejector-diffuser system. Experiments were carried out to understand the flow characteristics inside the variable ejector system. The secondary mass flow rates of subsonic and supersonic ejectors were examined by varying the operating pressure ratio and area ratio. The results showed that the variable sonic/supersonic ejectors could control the recirculation ratio by changing the throat area ratio, and also showed that the recirculation ratio increased fur the variable sonic ejector and decreased for the variable supersonic ejector, as the throat area ratio increases.

Large eddy simulation{LES) methodology used to model a bluff-body stabilized non-reacting flow. The LES solver was implemented on parallel computer consisting 16 processors. To verify the capability of LES code, the results was compared with that of Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) using $k-{\epsilon}$ model as well as experimental data. The results showed that the LES and RANS qualitatively well predicted the experimental results, such as mean axial, radial velocities and turbulent kinetic energy. However, in the quantitative analysis, the LES showed a better prediction performance than RANS. Specially, the LES well described characteristics of the recirculation zones, such as air stagnation point and jet stagnation point. Finally, the unsteady phenomena on the Bluff-body, such as the transition of recirculation region and vorticity, was examined with LES methodology.
