본 연구는 국내 상업용 대형 가스오븐 시스템 개발을 목표로 연소기의 연소조건에 대한 수치해석 및 실험을 통해 적정 당량비를 결정한 후 공급열량(20,000 kcal)에 적합한 열교환기를 설계하고 대류 팬 제어방법을 검토하여 상업용 대형 가스오븐 시스템 설계 및 최적운전조건을 도출하는 것이다. 실험결과 당량비는 0.82가 가장 적절하였고 오븐 내부 중앙지점의 온도가 $200^{\circ}C$까지 도달하는데 걸리는 시간은 대류 팬의 회전방향이 반시계방향일 때 시계방향 보다 단축되었다. 또한 오븐 내부의 온도를 균일하게 유지하기 위해서는 대류 팬 제동장치가 필요하였다. 오븐 내부의 승온구간과 온도유지구간 동안 배출되는 배기가스의 열량을 통해 시스템 효율을 비교한 결과 전열면적이 큰 열교환기를 설치한 시스템의 효율이 높게 나타났다.

최근 들어 경제적이고 친환경적인 에너지 활용을 위하여 지열에너지 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 수평형 지중 열교환기는 설치 비용이 저렴하여 비용 대비 효율면에서 우수하다. 수평형 지중 열교환기의 타입에는 여러 가지가 있으나 이 중 슬링키형과 코일형이 우수한 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 $5m{\times}1m{\times}1m$ 크기의 모형 토조내에 수평 슬링키형과 코일형 지중 열교환기를 각각 설치한 후 열교환율을 실험적으로 측정하였다. 모형 토조 내에는 건조 상태의 주문진 모래가 조성되었으며 수평 슬링키형과 코일형의 피치 간격에 따라 열교환율을 측정하기 위해 30시간 동안 연속으로 열응답 시험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과 코일형 지중 열교환기 이용시 수평 슬링키형 보다 약 30, 40% 정도의 높은 파이프 단위 길이당 열교환율을 보였다. 또한 수평 슬링키형과 코일형 이용시 피치 간격이 넓을 때(피치/직경 = 1)가 좁을 때(피치/직경 = 0.2)보다 약 200, 250% 정도의 높은 파이프 단위 길이당 열교환율을 나타냈다.

To extract hydrogen for stack, fuels such as LPG and LNG were reformed in the fuel processor, which is comprised of desulfurizer, reformer, shift converter, CO remover and steam generator. All elements of fuel processor are integrated in a single package. Highly active catalysts (desulfurizing adsorbent, reforming catalyst, CO shift catalyst, CO removal catalyst) and the various burners were developed and evaluated in this study. The performance of the developed catalysts and the commercial ones was similar. 1 kW, 5 kW class fuel processor systems using the developed catalyst and burner showed efficiency of 75 %(LHV, for LNG). The start-up time of the 1 kW class fuel processor was less than 50 minutes and its volume including insulation was about 30 l. The start-up time of 3 kW and 5 kW class fuel processors with the volume of 90 l and 150 l, respectively, was about 60 minutes. In the case of LPG fuel, efficiency, volume and start-up time of 1kW class fuel processor showed 73 %(LHV), < 60 l and < 60 min, respectively. Advanced fuel processor showed more highly efficiency and shorter start-up time due to the improvement of heat exchanger and operating method. 1 kW and 3 kW class fuel processors have been evaluated for reliability and durability including with on/off test of developed catalysts and burner.

Energy consumption of air-conditioning and refrigeration systems is responsible for about 25 to 30% of the energy demand especially in hot seasons. This equipment is mostly electricity dependent and their use in principle affects negatively the environment. Enhancing the energy efficiency of the existing equipment is important as one of the measures to reduce environment impacts. This paper reports the results of an experimental study to evaluate the impacts of the use electronic expansion valve and variable velocity compressor on the performance of vapor compression refrigeration system. The experimental rig is composed of two independent circuits one for the vapor compression system and the other is the secondary fluid system. The vapor compression system is composed of a forced air condenser unit, evaporator, hermetic compressor and expansion elements, while the secondary system has a pump for circulating the secondary fluid, and an air conditioning heat exchanger. The manufacturer's data was used to determine the optimal points of operation of the system and consequently tests were done to evaluate the influence of variation of the compressor velocity and the opening of the expansion device on the performance of the refrigeration system. A fuzzy logic model was developed to control the rotational velocity of the compressor and the thermal load. Fuzzy control model was made in LabVIEW software with the objective of improving the system performance, stability and energy saving. The results showed that the use of fuzzy logic as a form of control strategy resulted in a better energy efficiency.

유기 랜킨 사이클(ORC)을 이용한 선박 주기관 폐열 회수 시스템의 열역학적 분석을 수행하고 적용 가능성 및 효과를 검토하였다. 이론 해석에서는 ORC 와 ORC 에 열을 전달하기 위한 열전달 루프, 냉각수 공급 펌프를 모두 고려하여 전체 효율을 예측하였다. ORC 사이클의 성능은 증발기와 응축기의 특성과 열전달 루프의 온도 조건을 달리하여 평가되었으며 그 특성을 사이클 효율과 시스템 효율 관점에서 비교하였다. 수에즈막스 유조선에 대하여 ORC 사이클은 $250^{\circ}C$ 이하의 폐열 조건에 대하여 약 10%정도의 열효율을 보였다. ORC 이용하여 엔진 폐열로부터 주기관 출력의 3~4%에 해당하는 전력을 생산할 수 있으며 수에즈막스 유조선에 적용 시, 정상 운항시 필요한 전력의 59~69%를 ORC 생산 전력으로 대체하여 운항 중 연료 소모량을 절감시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

판형 열교환기는 1920년대부터 본격적으로 상업화되었으며, 이후 판형 열교환기의 기본 컨셉은 지금까지도 거의 변화가 없었지만 고온, 고압 그리고 대용량 열교환에 적용되기 위해 설계 및 제작 방법들이 혁신적으로 발전하여 지금에 이르게 되었다. 판형 열교환기의 개발 트렌드는 전열 효율이 좋으면서 압력강하가 낮고 또한 유체 분배가 잘되는 전열판의 개발과 일치한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 트렌드를 만족시키는 선박용 중속엔진 오일 냉각용 판형 쿨러 개발과 관련된 주요 과정들을 소개하고, 또한 개발된 판형 오일쿨러의 전열성능을 실험적으로 분석하여 이에 대한 결과를 제공하고자 한다. 본 연구에서 판형 쿨러는 구조적 특징으로 인해 직접 판벽 온도를 측정할 수 없어 수정된 Wilson Plot 방법을 응용하여 열전달계수를 구하였다. 오일-물 실험 전에 물-물 실험을 통해 우선 물측의 열전달계수와 압력강하량을 구하였고, 그 결과를 바탕으로 오일측의 열전달계수를 구하였다. 양측 모두 유량 증가에 따라 열전달 성능은 증가하였지만, 압력강하량도 동시에 증가하였다. 그리고 실험을 통해 본 연구에서 개발된 판형 오일쿨러가 개발목표치를 성공적으로 달성하였음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The current energy supply system is burdened by environmental and supply problems. The concept of a hydrogen economy has been actively discussed worldwide. KAERI has set up a plan to demonstrate massive production of hydrogen using a VHTR by the early 2020s. The technological gap to meet this goal was identified during the past few years. The hydrogen production process, a process heat exchanger, the efficiency of an I/S thermochemical cycle, the manufacturing of components, the analysis tools of VHTR, and a coated particle fuel are key areas that require urgent development. Candidate NHDD plant designs based on a 200 MWth VHTR core and I/S thermochemical process have been studied and some of analysis results are presented in this paper.

The objective of this study is to make a comparative study of the operation performance of different type of solar collectors. A flat-plate collector, a single-glazed evacuated collector and a double-glazed evacuated collector are used in this study. These 3 type of collectors are connected in series in the order of a flat-plate collector, a single-glazed evacuated collector and a double-glazed evacuated collector. This experimental facility is a kind of a solar system with a controller, a heat exchanger, a storage tank and a circulation pump. Each collector has a different collection area(flat-plate collector-$6.00m^2$ total area/$5.61m^2$ aperture area, double-glazed evacuated collector-$6.04m^2$ total area/$4.92m^2$ aperture area, single-glazed evacuated collector-$7.65m^2$ total area/$5.61m^2$ aperture area) and its performance characteristic respectively. The experiments have been demonstrated at around $70^{\circ}C$ operating temperature(flat-plate collector inlet temperature). The thermal collecting efficiencies of each collector are obtained under the different insolation and operation condition as a result.

In order to reduce the compression power and to use the overall energy contained in LNG effectively, a combined cycle is devised and simulated. The combined cycle is composed of two cycles; one is an open cycle of liquid/solid carbon dioxide production cycle utilizing LNG cold energy in $CO_2$ condenser and the other is a closed cycle gas turbine which supplies power to the $CO_2$ cycle, utilizes LNG cold energy for lowering the compressor inlet temperature, and uses the heating value of LNG at the burner. The power consumed for the $CO_2$ cycle is investigated in terms of a solid $CO_2$ production ratio. The present study shows that much reduction in both $CO_2$ compression power (only 35% of the power used in conventional dry ice production cycle) and $CO_2$ condenser pressure could be achieved by utilizing LNG cold energy and that high cycle efficiency (55.3% at maximum power condition) in the gas turbine could be accomplished with the adoption of compressor inlet cooling and regenerator. Exergy analysis shows that irreversibility in the combined cycle increases linearly as a solid $CO_2$ production ratio increases and most of the irreversibility occurs in the condenser and the heat exchanger for compressor inlet cooling. Hence, incoming LNG cold energy to the above components should be used more effectively.
