수소 액화시스템의 중요한 구성요소인 열교환기를 이중관 형태로 설계 제작하여 극저온 영역에서의 유용도를 실험적으로 측정하였다. 이중관 열교환기의 내관과 내 외관 사이의 환상 공간으로 수소를 공급하고, 온도와 압력, 유량을 측정하였다. 측정된 온도와 유량으로부터 유용도를 환산한 결과, 열교환면적이 증가함에 따라 열교환기의 유용도는 증가하였다. 또한 저온 수소와 고온 수소의 열용량비가 감소함에 따라 열교환기의 유용도는 증가하나 유용도의 증가폭은 감소하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수소 액화시스템에 필요한 유용도를 얻기 위한 열교환기의 길이 및 열용량비의 선정 기준을 제시하였다.

Thermodynamic cycle analysis has been performed to maximize the liquid amount for two hydrogen liquefaction systems using two-stage GM(Gifford-McMahon) refrigerator. the optimal operating conditions have been analytically sought with real properties of normal hydrogen for the two-stage GM direct contact system and the two-stage GM precooled L-H (Linde-Hampson) system. In the precooled system, there existed optimal values for compressed mass flow and compressed pressure to maximize the liquefied mass. It was recommended to use a cryocooler, which had a large precooling capacity between 70 and 100K.

Rare-earth (RE) nitrides can be used as magnetocaloric materials in low temperature. They exhibit ferromagnetism and have Curie temperature in the region from 6 to 70 K. In this study, Holmium nitride (HoN) nano particles were prepared through plasma arc discharge technique and their magnetocaloric properties were studied. Nitrogen gas ($N_2$) was employed as an active element for arc discharge between two electrodes maintained at a constant current. Also, it played an important role not only as a reducing agent but also as an inevitable source of excited nitrogen molecules and nitrogen ions for the formation of HoN phase. Partial pressure of $N_2$ was systematically varied from 0 to 28,000 Pa in order to obtain single phase of HoN with minimal impurities. Magnetic entropy change (${\Delta}S_m$) was calculated with data set measured by PPMS (Physical Property Measurement System). The as-synthesized HoN particles have shown a magnetic entropy change ${\Delta}S_m$) of 27.5 J/kgK in applied field of 50,000 Oe at 14.2 K thereby demonstrating its ability to be applied as an effective magnetic refrigerant towards the re-liquefaction of hydrogen.

Korea government is trying to supply liquid hydrogen from another country to domestic The research for liquid hydrogen transportation and liquefaction plant of hydrogen underway for several years, and empirical research is also planned in the future. Along with the development of liquid hydrogen transport ship/liquefaction plant technology, the development of liquid hydrogen reception base technology must be carried out. In this study, a concept level liquid hydrogen receiving terminal is constructed based on the process of the LNG receiving terminal. Based on this, a study is conducted on the development of analysis technology for the amount of BOG (pipe, tank) generated during cooldown and unloading in the liquid hydrogen unloading line (loading arm to storage tank). The research results are intended to be used as basic data for the design and liquid hydrogen receiving terminal in the future.

In this study, we compared the performance of several refrigeration cycles using different refrigerants and utilizing the cold heat of liquefied natural gas (LNG) for the liquefaction of carbon dioxide. The final conditions for the liquefied CO₂ were set to -20℃ and 20 bar. The refrigerants used included R404a, ammonia, propane, and propylene using a vapor recompression refrigeration cycle. For the refrigeration cycle, the CO₂ at room temperature and pressure was compressed in a two-stage compression process with an intermediate cooling stage using a refrigeration unit. To compare with the liquefaction process using refrigeration, we compressed the CO₂ to 8 bar in a single compression stage and cooled it to around -50℃ using the cold heat of the LNG before liquefying it. Results showed that using ammonia as the refrigerant required the least amount of compressor power for the liquefaction process, and the heat transfer area of the evaporator was the smallest when using propylene as the refrigerant. Using the cold heat of LNG instead of refrigeration using R404a resulted in approximately 69% less energy consumption.

Methane is the cleanest fuel and supplies by many distributed type: liquefaction natural gas (LNG), compressed natural gas (CNG), and pipeline natural gas (PNG). Natural gas is mainly composed by methane and has been discovered in the oil and gas fields. Coal bed methane (CBM) is also one of them which reserved in coalbed. This significant new energy sources has emerge to convert an energy source, hydrogen and hydrogen-driven chemicals. For this CBM, this paper was written to analyze the geological analysis and reserves in Mongolian Tavan Tolgoi CBM coal mine and to examine the application field. This paper is mainly a preliminary feasibility report analyzing the business of Tavan Tolgoi CBM and its exploitable gas.

This study analyzes the cool-down process of liquid hydrogen storage tanks, which have advantages in terms of large-capacity transfer, storage, and utilization as hydrogen demand increases. A hydrogen liquefaction plant is selected for analysis and an efficient tank cooling method is sought by comparing the time required for the cool-down process with the gas consumption in connection with the gassing-up process required for the operation of the liquid hydrogen storage tank. The results of this study can be referred to in the operation process after the initial start-up and maintenance of the hydrogen liquefaction plant.

The natural gas dehydration process plays a central role in liquefying LNG. This study proposes two natural gas dehydration process systems applicable to liquefied natural gas (LNG) liquefaction plants, and compares and analyzes energy optimization measures through simulation. The fuel gas from feed stream (FFF) case, which requires additional equipment for gas circulation, disadvantages are design capacity and increased energy. On the other hand, the end flash gas (EFG) case has advantages such as low initial investment costs and no need for compressors, but has downsides such as increased power energy and the use of gas with different components. According to the process simulation results, the required energy is 33.22 MW for the FFF case and 32.86 MW for the EFG case, confirming 1.1% energy savings per unit time in the EFG case. Therefore, in terms of design pressure, capacity, device configuration, and required energy, the EFG case is relatively advantageous. However, further research is needed on the impact of changes in the composition of regenerated gas on the liquefaction process and the fuel gas system.

In this study, comparison study has been performed between two-stage compression and a vapor-recompression refrigeration cycle and a liquefaction using LNG cold heat. When using a first method using two-stage compression and a refrigeration cycle, at least three compressors are required, however when using LNG cold heat, no compressor is required since carbon dioxide can be pumped after condensing with the heat exchange with -160℃ of LNG. Through this study, we can save more than one hundred million KRW annually by using LNG cold heat instead of using gas compression and refrigeration cycle.
