본 연구에서는 870 MW 대형 석탄화력 발전소에서 출력을 고정시키고 과잉공기비 조정만으로 통풍계통 안정 및 보일러 효율에 어떠한 변화가 있는지를 분석하였으며 이에 따른 적정 과잉공기비를 선정하였다. 과잉공기비 조정에 따라 공기예열기 압력강하, 유인송풍기 실속여유 등이 변하므로 통풍계통 안정화를 위해 적정 과잉공기비 선정은 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 과잉공기비를 통상 운전 값인 1.153에서 운전지침서상의 하한 값인 1.127까지 단계적으로 조정하여 공기예열기 압력강하, 유인송풍기 1차 실속여유, 보일러 효율, 각종 손실 등을 측정하였고 보일러 효율도 동등수준이상으로 유지하면서 통풍계통도 위험수준에서 안전하게 이격시켜 안정화에 기여할 수 있는 적정 과잉공기비를 선정하였다. 적정 과잉공기비는 운전지침서 상의 하한 값인 1.127까지 낮추어 운전하는 것이 바람직하다고 판단된다.

In this paper, a numerical study was performed to investigate the performance characteristics of a pre-heater. The effects of fin pitch and fin array type(in-line, staggered, leaned array) were reported in terms of Colburn j-factor and Fanning friction factor f, as a function of Re. Three-dimensional numerical simulation has been performed by using flow analysis program, FLUENT 13.0. The results show that Colburn j-factor decreases with the decrease of fin pitch attached in the annular tube. But the fin pitch has little effect on f-factor. The staggered array and leaned array show improved heat transfer performance compared with in-line array, so that Colburn j-factor was increased. It also shows that the f-factor of leaned array is the highest in the studied range of Reynolds number.

There is a growing interest in hydrogen energy utilization since an alternative energy development has been demanded due to the depletion of fossil fuels. Hydrogen is produced by the reforming reaction of natural gas and biogas, and the electrolysis of water. An solid oxide electrolyte cell (SOEC) is reversible system that generates hydrogen by electrolyzing the superheated steam or producing the electricity from a fuel cell by hydrogen. If the water can be converted into steam by waste heat from other processes it is more efficient for high-temperature electrolysis to convert steam directly. The reasons are based upon the more favorable thermodynamic and electrochemical kinetic conditions for the reaction. In the present study, steam at over 180℃ and 3.4 bars generated from a boiler were converted into superheated steam at over 700℃ and 3 bars using a cylindrical steam superheater as well as the waste heat of the exhaust gas at 900℃ from a solid refuse fuel combustor. Superheated steam at over 700℃ was then supplied to a high-temperature SOEC to increase the hydrogen production efficiency of water electrolysis. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis was conducted on the effects of the number of 90° elbow connector for piping, insulation types and insulation layers of pipe on the exit temperature using a commercial Fluent simulator. For two pre-heater injection method of steam inlet and ceramic wool insulation of 100 mm thickness, the highest inlet temperature of SOEC was 744℃ at 5.9 bar.
