본 연구에서는 천연가스 70%, 수소 30%의 조성비를 가진 HCNG연료와 천연가스를 각각 대형천연가스엔진에 공급하여 실험을 수행하였다. 고압축비의 수소-천연가스(HCNG)엔진의 배기특성을 살펴보기 위하여 부분부하조건에서 공기과잉률 변화에 따른 각 연료의 배출가스를 분석하였다. 실험결과 압축비가 증가함에 따라 열효율이 향상되었으며 그로인해 $CO_2$ 배출량은 감소하였다. 낮은 배기가스온도에 의하여 산화가 활발히 이루어지 못해 CO의 배출량이 증가하였다. 동일한 공기과잉률에서 압축비가 증가하면 $NO_x$의 배출량이 증가하였다. 하지만 ${\lambda}$=1.9이상의 영역에서는 MBT 점화시기가 동일해지기 때문에 압축비의 영향을 받지 않았다.

To clarify the cause of backfire occurrence and realize a hydrogen fueled engine linear alternator system, dynamic characteristics of a free-piston hydrogen engine were analyzed and compared with those of conventional reciprocating engines. It was found that the mean velocity and acceleration of a free-piston engine were higher than those of reciprocating engines. Piston displacement and compression ratio were varied with the change of the fuel mass flow rate. Therefore, the operational stability and controllability were the most important thinks of the development of a free-piston hydrogen engine.

The direct injection stratified charge(DISC) engine enhances the fuel tolerance and the antiknock tendency. This enhanc3d antiknock tendency allows use of a higher compression ratio which results in higher thermal efficiency. But its actual utilization is prevented by high emission combustion time and wall quenching will be the main causes of increasing unburned hydrocarbons in DISC system. In order to solve this problem, small aount of hydrogen was added to the charging air or injected fuel. The effects of hydrogen addition were examined experimentally by radial fuel injection using a pancake-type constant volume bomb. In case of the hydrogen addition to the charge of air, the combustion the amount of hydrogen. In case of the hydrogen addition to the fuel, the combustion pressure was significantly increased.

The electrochemical hydrogen compressor was run under diverse operating conditions in order to probe its capabilities and limitations. It was found that, unlike single-cell operations, the electrochemical hydrogen compressor stack performance improved with a rise in temperature. This improvement in performance was attributed to the gradual weakening of the electro-osmotic drag over time, impacting membrane resistance. As a result of these experiments, compression levels, up to an impressive 120 bar, using the electrochemical hydrogen serial stack were achieved.

Hydrogen has long been recognized as a fuel having some unique and highly desirable properties, for application as a fuel in engines. Hydrogen has some remarkably high values of the key properties for transport processes, such as kinematic viscosity, thermal conductivity and diffusion coefficient, in comparison to those of the other fuels. Such differences together with its extremely low density and low luminosity help to give hydrogen its unique diffusive and heat transfer characteristics. The thermodynamic and heat transfer characteristics of hydrogen tend to produce high compression temperatures that contribute to improvements in engine efficiency and lean mixture operation.

There are several types of compressors which are appropriate for hydrogen gas station. Diaphragm type of compressor is the one of them and it satisfies the requirements for that purpose in terms of maintaining gas purity and making high pressure over 700 bar. The objective of this study is to find an optimal design of oil distribution hole configuration. The number of holes is changed maintaining total cross-sectional area of holes. Five cases(1 hole, 4, 8,16 and 24 holes) were studied through Fluid Structure Interaction(FSI) analysis method. Gas and oil pressure, the deflection and stress of the diaphragm were analysed during compression and suction process respectively. There is no specific difference among the cases during compression. An additional deflection due to the existence of hole was found during suction for all case. But the highest deflection and stress were found in the 1 hole case. It was seen that 60% decrease of stress in magnitude in 24 hole case compare to the 1 hole case.

The specific some types of compressors are appropriate for a use in hydrogen gas station. Metal diaphragm type of hydrogen compressor is one of them, which can satisfy the critical requirements of maintaining gas purity and producing high pressure over 850 bar. The objective of this study is to investigate an characteristics of compression through two-way Fluid-Structure-Interaction (FSI) analysis as bulk modulus and initial volume of oil independently varies. Deflection of diaphragm, oil density, gas and oil pressure were analyzed during a certain period of compression process. According to the analysis results, bulk modulus and initial volume remarkably affected deflection of diaphragm, oil density, gas and oil pressure. The highest gas pressure were attained with the highest bulk modulus of $7e^9\;N/m^2$ and the lowest initial oil volume of 80 cc.

In order to introduce the hydrogen economy and increase supply, research in the field of hydrogen production is being actively conducted. Among the hydrogen production methods, the method of steam reforming from natural gas and producing it currently accounts for about 50% of the global hydrogen production. In the method of steam reforming process, hydrogen can be produced by adding a reformer to an existing natural gas supply pipe. Because of these advantages, it is evaluated as a realistic production method at present in Korea, where the city gas supply chain is well established. But there is concern in that it is highly likely to be installed in downtown areas and residential spaces. In this study, the risk of the process of steam reforming to produce hydrogen was reviewed.

Backfire characteristics for hydrogen fueled free piston engine with uni-flow scavenging is investigated with different stroke, exhaust vlave openning timing and fuel-air equivalence ratio by using RICEM (Rapid Intake Compression Expansion Machine) for combustion research of free piston engine. As results, it is found that backfire can be occurred due to slow combustion of unhomogeneous mixture in the piston crevice volume or/and in the cylinder near piston head. And the more stroke of free piston H2 engine with uni-flow scavenging is short the more opening timing of exhaust valve have to be advanced to control backfire.

During the hydrogen fueling process, hydrogen temperature inside the compressed tank were limited below 85℃ due to the allowable pressure of tank material. The chiller system to cool compressed hydrogen used R407C, greenhouse gas with a high global warming potential (GWP), as a refrigerant. To reduce greehouse gas emission, it should be replaced by refrigerant with a low GWP. This study proposes a chiller system for fueling hydrogen with R290, consisted in propane, by applying the C3 pre-cooled system use d in the LNG liquefaction process. The proposed system consisted of hydrogen compression and cooling sections and optimized the operating pressure through exergy analysis. It was also compared to the exergy efficiency with the existing system at the optimal operating pressure. The result showed that the optimal operating pressure is 700 kPa in 2-stage, 840 kPa/490 kPa in 3-stage, and the exergy efficiency increased by 17%.
