Very High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor (VHTR) has been selected as a high energy heat source for nuclear hydrogen generation. The VHTR can produce hydrogen from heat and water by using a thermo-chemical process or from heat, water, and natural gas by steam reformer technology. A co-axial double-tube primary hot gas duct (HGD) is a key component connecting the reactor pressure vessel and the intermediate heat exchanger (IHX) for the VHTR. In this study, a preliminary design analysis for the primary HGD of the nuclear hydrogen system was carried out. These preliminary design activities include a determination of the size, a strength evaluation and an appropriate material selection. The determination of the size was undertaken based on various engineering concepts, such as a constant flow velocity model, a constant flow rate model, a constant hydraulic head model, and finally a heat balanced model.

In this paper, the Superconductor flywheel energy storage system (SFESS) was used for the load frequency control (LFC) of an interconnected 2 area power system. The robust SFESS controller using quantitative feedback theory (QFT) was designed to improve control performance in spite of parameter uncertainty and unexpected disturbances. An overlapping decomposition method was applied to simplify SFESS controller design for the interconnected 2 area power system. The model for simulation of the interconnected 2 area power system included the reheat steam turbine, governor, boiler dynamics and nonlinearity such as governor deadband and generation rate constraint (GRC). To verify robust performance of proposed SFESS controller, dynamic simulation was performed under various disturbances and parameters variation of power system. The results showed that the proposed SFESS controller was more robust than the conventional method.

A generation rate of sludge in Korea had increased dramatically about $200\%$ for a decade. A requirement for high efficiency dewatering system being possible to produce the low water content cake have suggested due to the appearance of commercial and social problems about handling of dewatered cake. The conventional dewatering system with mechanical compression device was not suitable to produce the low water content cake and didn't cope with lots of requirements. Therefore, this paper was to develop the high efficient filter press with the compressive and heating forces through the heating plate to be built between membrane fillet plates. It is possible to produce the low water content cake and improve the dewatering rate, so this equipment positively coped with several types of problems related to the sludge dewatering. The plate heated by heat transfer materials such as steam, hot water and thermo-oil made the sludge make the residual moisture within the cake to discharge easily and to improve the dewatering efficiency of equipment. The pilot scale experiment with 500kg of cake production showed that the dewatering efficiency determined by the final water content and dewatering velocity was improved $30\%$ more than the conventional dewatering equipment.

Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant converts coal to syngas, which is mainly composed of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, by the gasification process and produces electric power by the gas and steam turbine combined cycle power plant. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of using syngas in a gas turbine, originally designed for natural gas fuel, on its performance. A commercial gas turbine is selected and variations of its performance characteristics due to adopting syngas is analyzed by simulating off-design gas turbine operation. Since the heating value of the syngas is lower, compared to natural gas, IGCC plants require much larger fuel flow rate. This increases the gas flow rate to the turbine and the pressure ratio, leading to far larger power output and higher thermal efficiency. Examination of using two different syngases reveals that the gas turbine performance varies much with the fuel composition.

순환유동층 연소로에서 폐목질계 바이오매스를 이용한 5 MWe 규모의 발전시설에 대한 경제적 타당성에 대하여 고찰하였다. 초기투자비, 폐목재의 가격, 탄소배출권, 계통한계가격과 같은 주요 변수들이 사업의 경제성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 폐목재를 무상으로 공급하고, 기반투자비용 106.5억원, 계통한계가격 99원/kWh의 기준에서 사업의 내부수익률은 16.67%로 계산되어 사업성이 비교적 높은 것으로 예상되었다. 사업의 수익에 영향을 크게 미치는 인자는 계통한계가격, 가동율, 초기투자비, 폐목가격, 탄소배출권의 순으로 나타났다. 또한 사업 위험도를 관리하기 위하여 판매처를 다양화할 수 있는 방안의 하나로 열판매가 가능한 열병합발전을 고려할 필요가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

The heating system for apartment complex may be classified as old systems including central system with steam boiler(S1), gas engine driven heat pump system(S2), system using waste heat(S3) and new systems including mechanical vapor re-compression system with flashing heat exchangers(S4), system using methanol(S5), system using metal hydride (S6). The purpose of the present study is to suggest optimal heating system by technically, economically and environmentally evaluating old and new heating systems of apartment complex from 500 to 3,000 households. Economic evaluation based on the technical evaluation results which estimated heat transfer area of heat exchangers and capacity of equipments was estimated initial investment cost, annual operating cost and relative payback period by considering annual increasing rates of energy cost and interest. Environmental evaluation provided annual generation rate of carbon dioxide. Initial investment cost was cheap in the order of S6, S5, S3, S2, S4, S1, annual operating cost was cheap in the order of S1, S2, S4, S5 and relative payback period was short in the order of S6, S5, S2, S3 and S4. Relative payback period was within 8 years for all scenarios of 3,000 households, and was increased as annual increasing rates of energy cost and interest were increased. As transportation pipe length was increased twice, payback period was increased by 1.4~2.6 time. The effect of temperatures of waste gas and waste water on the relative payback period was small within 0.8 years. The annual generation rate of carbon dioxide was big in the order of S4, S2 and S1. S4 was the most economic system among whole scenarios when S1 was replaced with other scenarios.

본 연구에서는 최근 LNG를 사용하는 화력발전소가 증가함에 따라 등장한 LNG-FSRU (Floating Storage Regasification Unit)에서 LNG를 육상에 있는 소비자에게 기체 상태로 전달하기 위해 Topside에 설치된 재기화 시스템의 열원온도 및 기화성능의 변동에 따른 시스템의 특성분석에 관한 연구이다. 시스템 특성분석을 위하여 LNG가 재기화 할 때 필요한 열원으로써 해수를 사용하는 기화방식과 에틸렌글리콜을 사용하는 기화방식으로 나누어 $-157.9^{\circ}C$, 10,400kPa의 LNG를 시간당 200ton 기화시키는 시스템을 구성하였고, 이때 공급되는 해수온도에 따라 필요한 해수의 최소유량 값을 구하였다. 그리고 에틸렌글리콜을 사용하는 기화방식에서는 지역 및 계절 등의 요인으로 인해 해수온도가 낮아질 경우를 대비하여 $174.5^{\circ}C$, 775kPa의 보일러 스팀을 추가열원으로 설치된 시스템을 구성하고, 필요한 스팀의 생성량을 기화성능에 따라 비교분석함으로써 해수온도 변화에 따라 요구되는 보일러 스팀의 양과 기화성능의 변화에 따른 해수 및 에틸렌글리콜 그리고 스팀의 양을 구하였다.

본 논문에서는 LNG 추진선박에서 발생하는 BOG(boil-off gas)를 이용하여 수소를 생산하고 수소 연료전지 시스템을 보조엔진으로 적용한 개질공정의 특성에 대한 연구를 수행했다. 연구를 위해 BOG 수증기 개질공정을 UniSim R410 프로그램을 이용해 공정설계하고, 개질기의 출구온도와 압력, SCR(steam carbon ratio)에 따른 생성물의 분율과 반응물의 소모량을 산출하였다. 연구 결과 개질온도가 890℃일때 메탄의 반응률이 100 %였으며, 최대 수소 생산량을 보였다. 또한 개질압력이 낮을수록 반응 활성도가 높았다. 하지만 그 이상의 온도가 되면 역반응의 우세로 인해 수소의 생산량은 감소하게 되고, 물과 이산화탄소의 양은 증가했다. 또한 SCR이 증가할수록 수소 생산량도 증가했으나 요구되는 에너지 소비량도 비례하여 증가했다. SCR이 1.8일 때 수소분율이 가장 높았으나 코킹방지를 위해 SCR이 3에서 운전하는 것이 최적 운전범위임을 확인했다. 그리고 개질압력이 낮을수록 발생되는 이산화탄소의 양은 증가했으며, 냉각 및 액화를 위해서는 이산화탄소 발생량을 기준으로 42.5 %의 LNG 냉열이 요구됨을 알 수 있었다.

폐기물 고형연료의 순환유동층 연소기술의 시범을 위하여 파일롯트 규모 순환유동층 연소보일러를 설계하고 건설하였다. 보일러의 규모는 출력기준 약 6 MWth에 해당하며 증기질은 $400^{\circ}C$, 38 ata로 설계하였다. 최대 증기출력은 약 8 ton/h에 해당한다. 연료는 RDF로 휘발분을 주성분으로 하며 점화가 빠르고 연소성이 매우 뛰어났으며 보일러의 연소효율은 99.5%를 능가하였다. 순환유동층 RDF 연소의 안정성은 연료중 회분 이외의 이물질의 존재 여부와 신속한 배출 가능성에 크게 의존하였다. 오염물질의 배출농도는 염소를 제외하고는 법적 기준치 이내에 들었다. 또한 60% 정도의 연료중 염소는 비산재에 흡수되는 것으로 나타났다. HCl을 국내 법 규제에 맞추어 제어하기 위해서는 건식 또는 습식 흡수 장치와 같은 별도의 환경설비가 필요하였다.
