액체산소/케로신 가스발생기 사이클 엔진의 터빈 노즐목 수트(soot) 침착 특성을 파악하기 위한 변수를 정의하고 한국형발사체 1단 엔진 시험결과에 적용하였다. 터빈 가스의 물성치를 이용한 노즐목의 분출 계수 정의를 하는 방법이 있고 터빈 노즐목 전단과 터빈 배기 노즐목 전단의 압력비와 온도비를 이용하여 분출계수를 정의할 수 있다. 한국형발사체 1단 엔진 시험 결과를 분석한 결과 터빈 노즐목의 분출계수(discharge coefficient)는 시간에 따라 감소하며 동일 엔진에 대한 누적 연소시간에 대해서도 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 누적 시험 초기에는 터빈 노즐목 감소가 그 다음 시험과 연계되지만 일정 시간 이후에는 일정 범위에서 등락을 거듭하는 듯한 특성을 보인다.

Rolls-Royce is a global company producing advanced power systems for use on land, at sea and in the air. In order to develop competitive products and services, Rolls-Royce invests in technology, infrastructure and capability with much of the research carried out in a global network of University Technology Centres, such as the UTC in Thermal management at Pusan National University. Heat exchangers and thermal management play a critical role in today's gas turbine engines, maintaining the fuel and oil temperatures within the correct operational range. Future products are likely to place an increased duty on the thermal management system and thus require advances in heat exchanger design, installation and manufacturing. Heat exchangers further have the potential to play a vital role in Advanced Cycle Gas Turbine products. The Intercooled and recuperated WR21 marine gas turbine engine recently entered service with the Royal Navy and is delivering very attractive fuel burn in service. The development of an advanced cycle aero-engine is a significantly greater challenge, requiring better understanding of compact and light weight heat exchanger surfaces, novel installations and ducting systems and may required novel manufacturing techniques to achieve the volume, weight and cost necessary to realise a viable advanced cycle gas turbine aero-engine.

Various indirect power cycle options for a helium cooled gas cooled fast reactor (GFR) with particular focus on a supercritical $CO_2(SCO_2)$ indirect cycle are investigated as an alternative to a helium cooled direct cycle GFR. The balance of plant (BOP) options include helium-nitrogen Brayton cycle, supercritical water Rankine cycle, and $SCO_2$ recompression Brayton power cycle in three versions: (1) basic design with turbine inlet temperature of $550^{\circ}C$, (2) advanced design with turbine inlet temperature of $650^{\circ}C$ and (3) advanced design with the same turbine inlet temperature and reduced compressor inlet temperature. The indirect $SCO_2$ recompression cycle is found attractive since in addition to easier BOP maintenance it allows significant reduction of core outlet temperature, making design of the primary system easier while achieving very attractive efficiencies comparable to or slightly lower than, the efficiency of the reference GFR direct cycle design. In addition, the indirect cycle arrangement allows significant reduction of the GFR &proximate-containment& and the BOP for the $SCO_2$ cycle is very compact. Both these factors will lead to reduced capital cost.

In this study, the validity of reducing the number of gas turbine stages designed for a nitrogen Brayton cycle coupled to a sodium-cooled fast reactor was assessed. The turbine performance was evaluated through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations under different off-design conditions controlled by a reduced flow rate and reduced rotational speed. Two different multistage gas turbines designed to extract almost the same specific work were selected: two- and three-stage turbines (mid-span stage loading coefficient: 1.23 and 1.0, respectively). Real gas properties were considered in the CFD simulation in accordance with the Peng-Robinson's equation of state. According to the CFD results, the off-design performance of the two-stage turbine is comparable to that of the three-stage turbine. Moreover, compared to the three-stage turbine, the two-stage turbine generates less entropy across the shock wave. The results indicate that under both design and off-design conditions, increasing the stage loading coefficient for a fewer number of turbine stages is effective in terms of performance and size. Furthermore, the Ellipse law can be used to assess off-design performance and increasing exponent of the expansion ratio term better predicts the off-design performance with a few stages (two or three).

A combined cycle, 'HYBRID', is emerging as a new power generation technology that is particularly suitable for the distributed power generation system, with high energy efficiency and low pollutant emission. Currently micro gas turbines and fuel cells are attracting a lot of attention to meet the future needs in the distributed power generation market. This hybrid system may have every advantages of both systems because a gas turbine is synergistically combined with a fuel cell into a unique combined cycle. The hybrid system is believed to become a leading runner in the distributed power generation market. This paper introduces a current plan associated with the development of the hybrid system which consists of a micro gas turbine and a solid-oxide fuel cell(SOFC).

A gas turbine consists of an upstream compressor and a downstream turbine with a combustion chamber, and also the compressor and the turbine are generally coupled using a single shaft. Many casing bolts are used to assemble two horizontally separated casings, the gas turbine casing and the compressor casing, in both of axial and vertical directions. Because drilled holes for casing bolts in vertical direction are often too close to drilled holes for casing bolts in axial direction, one can observe cracks in the area frequently during operations of a gas turbine. In this study of the root cause analysis for the cracking initiating from the drilled holes of the casings of a gas turbine, the finite element analysis(FEA) was applied to evaluate the thermal and mechanical characteristics of the casings. By applying the field operation data recorded from combined cycle power plants for FEA, thermal and thermo-mechanical characteristics of a gas turbine are analyzed. The crack is initiated at the geometrical weak point, but it is found that the maximum stress is relieved when the same type of cracks is introduced on purpose during FEA. So, it is verified that the local fracture could be delayed by machining the same type of defects near the hole for casing flange bolts of the gas turbine, where the crack is initiated.

Marine transportation industry is undergoing a number of problems. Some of these problems are associated with conventional marine fuel-oils. Many researchers have showed that fuel-oil is considered as the main component that causes both environmental and economic problems, especially with the continuous rising of fuel cost. This paper investigates the capability of using natural gas and hydrogen as alternative fuel instead of diesel oil for marine gas turbine, the effect of the alternative fuel on gas turbine thermodynamic performance and the employed mathematical model. The results showed that since the natural gas is categorized as hydrocarbon fuel, the thermodynamic performance of the gas turbine cycle using the natural gas was found to be close to the diesel case performance. The gas turbine thermal efficiency was found to be 1% less in the case of hydrogen compared to the original case of diesel.

본 연구에서 MAT(Moisture Air Turbine) 사이클은 압축기 입구에 미세한 액적을 분무함에 따라, 가스터빈 엔진의 성능을 향상시킬 수 있음을 제시하였다. 혼합물이 상변화하는 동안의 압축기 일은 이론적으로 등 엔트로피 압축 일로 고려하였다. 상변화 과정에서 증발잠열의 영향으로 압축기 일은 감소함을 알 수 있다. 성능해석 프로그램을 이용해서 1000, 1210, 1350 rps 조건에서, 압축기 유입공 기에 대한 1.0%의 물을 분무했을 경우, 각각 16.2%, 14.9%, 12.6%의 출력이 증가함을 확인하였다. 또한 압축기 일의 감소에 의해 열 효율도 증가함을 확인하였다.

국내 A 복합발전소에서 운전 중인 150 MW급 가스터빈 저압 1단 회전익의 교체주기 연장가능성을 다각적으로 모색하였다. 제작사가 추천한 24,000 등가운전시간 이상을 사용한 저압 1단 회전익의 외관검사, 열차폐코팅 제거 후 모재의 표면검사 및 균열검사를 각각 실시하였다. 또한 제작사별 150 MW급 가스터빈의 교체주기를 비교 분석하였다. 제작사가 추천한 24,000 등가운전시간 이상이 경과하여 27,000 등가운전시간을 운전한 저압의 외관을 검사한 결과 냉각홀 부위에 다수의 균열이 관찰되었다. 그러나 열차폐코팅을 제거한 상태에서 실시한 모재의 표면검사에서는 균열이 거의 관찰되지 않았으며, 모재까지 진행된 일부 미세 균열에 대해서는 절단면 검사를 통하여 균열깊이가 기능에 영향을 미치지 않는 수준임을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구대상 가스터빈 저압 1단 회전익의 교체정비주기는 현행 24,000 등가운전시간에서 3,000 등가운전시간의 연장이 가능할 것으로 보인다. 또한 연구대상 저압 1단 회전익에 대하여 제작사가 추천한 교체주기는 타제작사 1단 회전익 교체주기의 2/3 수준으로 짧게 설정되어 있어 교체주기 연장이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
