This paper relates to a technology for monitoring a liquefied gas storage tank in the special gas field where demand is increasing owing to the continuous growth of related fields such as the semiconductor, display, and ICT convergence electronics industries. We have proposed a system for real - time monitoring using wireless sensor network technology, and implemented a system consisting of a sensor unit, transmitter module, and receiver module to be attached to a liquefied gas storage tank. The system was applied to LCO2 tanks among various liquefied gas storage tanks to verify the feasibility. The storage tanks employed in the experiments has capacities of 16,179 l and was 1,920 mm in inner diameter. Furthermore, the density was 1.03 g/l. The measured data were compared with reference data on the remaining gas level versus the $CO_2$ height of the surface, expressed using a conventional water meter, provided by an existing storage tank supplier. The experimental results show that the data is similar to the standard data provided by the tank supplier, and has a high accuracy and reliability within an error range of 0.03%.

With the expansion of domestic hydrogen fuelling station infrastructure, it is necessary to secure reliability among hydrogen traders, and for this, technology to accurately measure hydrogen is important. In this study, 4 types of hydrogen trading volume calculation models (model 1-4) were presented to improve the accuracy of the hydrogen trading volume. In order to obtain the reference value of model 4, and experiment was conducted using a flow rate measurement equipment, and the error rate of the calculated value for each model was compared and analyzed. As a result, model 1 had the lowest metering accuracy, model 2 had the second highest metering accuracy and model 3 had the highest metering accuracy until a certain point. But after the point, model 2 had the highest metering accuracy and model 3 had the second metering accuracy.

OGI(Optical Gas Image) 기술에서 주요 가스의 이미지 특성연구는 누출가스의 종류 파악 및 배출량 추정의 기초자료가 될 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 산업에서 중요한 methane과 propane 두 탄화수소의 분출가스 이미지의 차이를 관찰하기 위함이다. 적외선을 투과하는 성질을 지닌 석영을 끼운 바람차단막을 제작하여 methane과 propane을 동시에 누출하게 하여 적외선 OGI 카메라로 촬영하고, 그 영상을 분석하였다. 석영차단막이를 활용하여 바람의 영향을 최소화하여 안정된 영상을 확보하였다. 누출 기준값을 1 L/min로 하여 두 탄화수소의 영상을 분석한 결과 OGI 카메라로 쉽게 식별 가능한 거리가 methane의 경우 6 m, propane의 경우 9 m로 나타났다. 적외선 카메라와 누출지점의 거리 1~10 m까지에서 propane의 경우가 methane의 경우 보다 gas plume의 크기가 컸으며 선명하였다. 영상 이미지의 점의 수로 비교하면 propane이 methane보다 평균 3.8배 많았다.

가스 배관은 도시가스 시설물의 핵심 시설물로 대부분 지하에 매설되어 있으며, 매설 토양의 특성 및 환경적 영향 등으로 인해 배관부식 등의 시설물 손상 위험에 상시 노출되어 있다. 매설배관은 관련법규에 따라 방식 상태나 배관의 방식전위를 주기적으로 측정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 방식전위 측정시스템의 문제점을 보완하기 위해 매설배관의 방식전위 측정시스템 개발에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 연구내용은 관련 법규를 만족시키기 위한 방식전위 측정 기준 및 규격, 기준전극 규격 조사와 방식전위 측정시스템 구축을 위한 측정회로 및 데이터 송신 모듈 개발이다. 개발된 시작품의 테스트를 통해 현장 적용성을 검증하고, 선행연구를 통한 보완점과 향후 연구개발 방향에 대하여 고찰하였다.

Numerical analysis was conducted to characterize the gas flow field and particle deposition on a horizontal freestanding semiconductor wafer under the laminar flow field at vacuum environment. In order to calculate the properties of gas, the gas was assumed to obey the ideal gas law. The particle transport mechanisms considered were convection, Brownian diffusion and gravitational settling. The averaged particle deposition velocities and their radial distributions fnr the upper surface of the wafer were calculated from the particle concentration equation in an Eulerian frame of reference for system pressures of 1 mbar~1 atm and particle sizes of 2nm~10$^4$ nm(10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). It was observed that as the system pressure decreases, the boundary layer of gas flow becomes thicker and the deposition velocities are increased over the whole range of particle size. One thing to be noted here is that the deposition velocities are increased in the diffusion dominant particle size range with decreasing system pressure, whereas the thickness of the boundary layer is larger. This contradiction is attributed to the increase of particle mechanical mobility and the consequent increase of Brownian diffusion with decreasing the system pressure. The present numerical results showed good agreement with the results of the approximate model and the available experimental data.

Shale gas formations exhibit strong mechanical and strength anisotropies. Thus, it is necessary to study the effect of anisotropy on the hydraulic fracture initiation pressure. The calculation model for the in-situ stress of the bedding formation is improved according to the effective stress theory. An analytical model of the stresses around wellbore in shale gas reservoirs, in consideration of stratum dip direction, dip angle, and in-situ stress azimuth, has been built. Besides, this work established a calculation model for the stress around the perforation holes. In combination with the tensile failure criterion, a prediction model for the hydraulic fracture initiation pressure in the shale gas reservoirs is put forward. The error between the prediction result and the measured value for the shale gas reservoir in the southern Sichuan Province is only 3.5%. Specifically, effects of factors including elasticity modulus, Poisson's ratio, in-situ stress ratio, tensile strength, perforation angle (the angle between perforation direction and the maximum principal stress) of anisotropic formations on hydraulic fracture initiation pressure have been investigated. The perforation angle has the largest effect on the fracture initiation pressure, followed by the in-situ stress ratio, ratio of tensile strength to pore pressure, and the anisotropy ratio of elasticity moduli as the last. The effect of the anisotropy ratio of the Poisson's ratio on the fracture initiation pressure can be ignored. This study provides a reference for the hydraulic fracturing design in shale gas wells.

현행 액화석유가스의 안전관리 및 사업법의 시행규칙에 의거하면 액화 가스는 용기 체적의 85%까지 충전하도록 되어있다. 이에 상당하는 충전량은 $65^{\circ}C$를 기준으로 내부에 액체의 열팽창을 고려한 수치이다. 하지만 소형 또는 이동이 용이한 용기가 특정 상황에서는 용기 내부 액체의 온도가 $65^{\circ}C$ 미만을 유지한다고 단정 지을 수 없다. 열역학적 관점에서 액 팽창은 용기 재료의 강성만으로 제어하기 어려운 요소이며, 결국 파열 등의 사고를 유발 할 수 있는 잠재적인 위험 요인이 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 밀폐계에서 임계상태 액체 프로판의 열 팽창량을 추정하는 방법과 추정 된 결과를 제시 할 것이며, 내압 변화에 따른 용기의 체적 증가를 유도하는 구조적 요소를 실험적으로 제안할 것이다. 본 논문을 통해 제시된 결과는 향후 액화가스의 압력용기 설계에 있어 중요한 기초 자료가 될 것으로 사료된다.

It is difficult for a burner to achieve an increase in combustibility and a reduction of NOx emission, simultaneously. The reason is because thermal NOx could be reduced at low temperature, while the combustibility should be decreased. To solve this problem, an externally oscillated staging burner was developed, and experiment was conducted according to effective parameters. The combustibility could be improved through the accelerated transfer of heat, mass and momentum obtained by external oscillation. Also, NO is reduced by the decrease of residence time of burning gas in the local highest-temperature spot, which is decreased by the external oscillation and fuel staging. Experiments on variables were conducted to determine the reference flame, and the flame generating the lowest NO concentration was selected. The conditions of reference flame were oscillation frequency 250 Hz, sound pressure 1 VPP, and air ratio 1.1, and NO and CO concentrations were 1ppm and 20 ppm, respectively.
