This study investigates anti-icing design by conjugate heat transfer analysis in lab-scale printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) for supply of cryogenic high pressure liquid hydrogen. The conjugate heat transfer analysis by using computational dynamics (CFD) provided various temperature distributions at important locations in PCHE heat exchanger and predicted the possibility of freezing in hot channel. And, the effect of inlet temperature of glycol water was analyzed in order to resolve the freezing problem in PCHE.

This study has been mainly motivated to numerically model the transcritical mixing and reacting flow processes encountered in the liquid propellant rocket engines. In the present approach, turbulence is represented by the extended k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model. To account for the real fluid effects, the propellant mixture properties are calculated by using SRK (Souve-Redlich-Kwong) equation of state model. In order to realistically represent the turbulence-chemistry interaction in the turbulent non-premixed flames, the flamelet approach based on the real fluid flamelet library has been adopted. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussions are made for the real fluid effects and the precise structure of the transcritical cryogenic liquid nitrogen jet and gaseous hydrogen/liquid oxygen coaxial jet flame.

Isosteric heat of hydrogen adsorption is one of the most important parameters required to describe solid-state hydrogen storage systems. Typically, it is calculated from adsorption isotherms measured at 77K (liquid N2) and 87K (liquid Ar). This simple calculation, however, results in a high degree of uncertainty due to the small temperature range. Therefore, the original Sievert type setup is upgraded using a heating and cooling device to regulate the wide sample temperature. This upgraded setup allows a wide temperature range for isotherms (77K ~ 117K) providing a minimized uncertainty (error) of measurement for adsorption enthalpy calculation and yielding reliable results. To this end, we measure the isosteric heats of hydrogen adsorption of two prototypical samples: activated carbon and metal-organic frameworks (e.g. MIL-53), and compared the small temperature range (77~87K) to the wide one (77K ~ 117K).

This paper reviews the development status of magnetic refrigeration system for hydrogen liquefaction. There is no doubt that hydrogen is one of most important energy sources in the near future. In particular, liquid hydrogen can be utilized for infrastructure construction consisting of storage and transportation. Liquid hydrogen is in cryogenic temperatures and therefore high efficient liquefaction method must be studied. Magnetic refrigeration which uses the magneto-caloric effect has potential to realize not only the higher liquefaction efficiency > 50 %, but also to be environmentally friendly and cost effective. Our hydrogen magnetic refrigeration system consists of Carnot cycle for liquefaction stage and AMR (active magnetic regenerator) cycle for precooling stages. For the Carnot cycle, we develop the high efficient system > 80 % liquefaction efficiency by using the heat pipe. For the AMR cycle, we studied two kinds of displacer systems, which transferred the working fluid. We confirmed the AMR effect with the cooling temperature span of 12 K for 1.8 T of the magnetic field and 6 second of the cycle. By using the simulation, we estimate the total efficiency of the hydrogen liquefaction plant for 10 kg/day. A FOM of 0.47 is obtained in the magnetic refrigeration system operation temperature between 20 K and 77 K including LN2 work input.

In this study, a numerical simulations were conducted to analyze the phase change behavior of a liquid hydrogen storage container. The effects of gravity direction and hydrogen filling rate on boil-off gas (BOG) in the storage container were investigated. The study employed the volume of fluid, which is the phase change analysis model provided by ANSYS Fluent (ANSYS, Canonsburg, PA, USA), to investigate the sloshing phenomenon inside the liquefied hydrogen fuel tank. Considering the transient analysis time, two-dimensional simulation were carried out to examine the characteristics of the flow and thermal fields. The results indicated that the thermal flow characteristics and BOG phenomena inside the two-dimensional liquefied hydrogen storage container were significantly influenced by changes in gravity direction and hydrogen filling rate.

Basic concept of a cold neutron source for a 30 MW heavy water moderated reactor (HANARO) is developed. The source is a cold bottle located in a vertical hole near the reactor core. Since the bottle does not have sufficient volume for cooling, the optimum liquid mixture ratio is studied between liquid hydrogen and liquid deuterium. We also studied the variation of the gain depending on the volume of the bottle. The calculation is performed by a coupled MCNP model and by a semi-analytic approach. For the current geometry, 80% liquid deuterium mixture with liquid hydrogen gives the highest gain at 10 A neutron wave.

With the global shift from a carbon-based economy to a hydrogen-based economy, understanding the sloshing phenomenon and its impact on boil-off rate (BOR) in liquid hydrogen (LH2) tank trailers is crucial. Here, we analyze the primary breakup process under sloshing phenomena in a liquid fuel tank. We observe the growth of multiple holes on the sheet-like structures and the formation of ligament structures reminiscent of jet atomization. Through the extraction of three-dimensional liquid regions, we analyze the geometrical characteristics of these regions, enabling the classification of sheets, ligaments, and droplets. The present findings could contribute to understanding the breakup mechanism and hold potential for the development of strategies aimed at minimizing BOR.

잠수함 및 수중무인체계 등의 산소희박환경에서 연료전지를 통한 효과적인 전력생산을 위해서는 높은 수소저장밀도를 갖는 수소공급원이 필요하다. 디젤연료는 액체연료로서 저장 및 공급이 용이하며, 연료전지의 연료가 되는 수소의 단위질량 및 단위부피당 저장밀도가 높은 장점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 디젤연료의 장점을 기반으로 본 연구에서는 산소희박환경에서 수소생산을 위해 디젤연료의 개질반응을 이용하였으며, 산화제로 단위부피당 산소 저장밀도가 높고 액상으로 보관이 용이한 과산화수소 수용액을 기존의 산화제인 물과 산소의 대체산화제로 이용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 과산화수소 수용액의 디젤개질 산화제로써의 특성을 파악하기 위해 물, 공기 산화제와의 비교실험을 진행하였으며, 기존의 산화제와 디젤 개질반응 시 동일한 특성을 갖는 것을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 또한 상용디젤을 연료로 온도 및 과산화수소 수용액의 농도에 따른 개질성능을 평가하였으며, 49시간의 가속 열화실험을 통하여 디젤, 과산화수소 수용액을 이용한 수소생산의 가능성을 확인하였다.

열화학적 물분해에 의한 수소 생산 공정 중의 하나인 IS(Iodine-sulfur) 사이클에서 요오드와 이산화황, 그리고 물을 반응물로 하여 요오드화수소와 황산을 제조하는 분젠 반응에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 요오드의 투입 몰수에 관계없이 황산의 생성량은 일정하였으나 요오드화수소의 생성량은 요오드의 투입 몰수가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이는 생성된 요오드화수소와 미 반응된 요오드가 $HI_3$ $HI_5$ or $HI_7$와 같은 착화합물인 polyiodide를 형성하기 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 이들 착화합물의 형성은 생성물의 2액상 분리 특성의 향상을 가져온다. 또한 요오드 투입 몰수의 증가함에 따라 반응 속도는 향상되었다. 반응물인 요오드의 투입 몰수 및 반응 온도가 증가함에 따라 생성 용액의 2액상 분리 특성이 향상되었으며 모든 실험의 조건 하에서 부반응은 발생 되지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
