A novel design process of a parallel multi-flow type air-cooled condenser of a dual-loop waste heat recovery system with Rankine steam cycles for improving the fuel efficiency of gasoline automobiles has been investigated focusing on reduction of the pressure drop inside the micro-tubes. The low temperature condenser plays a role to dissipate heat from the system by condensing the low temperature loop working fluid sufficiently. However, the refrigerant has low evaporation temperature enough to recover the waste from engine coolant of about $100^{\circ}C$ but has small saturation enthalpy so that excessive mass flow rate of the LT working fluid, e.g., over 150 g/s, causes enormously large pressure drop of the working fluid to maintain the heat dissipation performance of more than 20 kW. This paper has dealt with the scheme to design the low temperature condenser that has reduced pressure drop while ensuring the required thermal performance. The number of pass, the arrangement of the tubes of each pass, and the positions of the inlet and outlet ports on the header are most critical parameters affecting the flow uniformity through all the tubes of the condenser. For the purpose of the performance predictions and the parametric study for the LT condenser, we have developed a 1-dimensional user-friendly performance prediction program that calculates feasibly the phase change of the working fluid in the tubes. An example is presented through the proposed design process and compared with an experiment.

This study was carried out to analyze the microstructure characteristics of electrolyte membrane through XRD, SEM and AC impedance measurement for using in high temperature steam electrolysis(HTE). It was investigated that thermal stability and electric characteristics by sintering condition using dry and wet process, and confirmed growth of particle and density change by sintering temperature. The sintering temperature and behavior had an effect on the relative density of the ceramic and the average grain size. The more amount of dispersant in organic compound increase, the more the density increased. But the binder was shown opposite phenomenon. It was analyzed that electrolyte resistance and electrical characteristics using AC impedance. The electrical properties of YSZ grain boundary changed with the sintering temperature.

석탄 및 pet coke (petroleum coke)는 그 이용이 제한적이지만 공급이 풍부한 에너지원이므로, 가스화공정에 적용하여 고급연료인 수소나 액체연료를 생산할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 열천칭반응기와 실험실규모의 유동층반응기(내경 0.02 m, 높이 0.6 m)에서 갈탄, 무연탄, pet coke의 수증기 가스화 반응특성을 조사하였다. 가스화 온도 $600{\sim}900^{\circ}C$, 수증기 분압 0.15~0.95 atm 및 수증기/연료 비의 조업변수가 가스화반응속도 및 생성가스의 발열량에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 기체-고체 반응모델로서 modified volumetric reaction model을 적용하여 가스화반응의 거동을 묘사하고 kinetic 인자들을 도출하였다. 가스화 반응온도가 높을수록 생성가스 중의 수소농도와 가스의 발열량은 증가하였다. 생성가스 발열량은 무연탄 > 갈탄 > pet coke의 순으로 높게 나타났는데, 반응온도 $900^{\circ}C$, 수증기분압 95%의 조건에서 10.0 > 6.9 > 5.7 $MJ/m^3$로 각각 얻어졌다. 본 연구를 통하여 갈탄과 pet coke에 대해 가스화공정의 잠재적인 연료로서의 가능성을 확인하였다.

폐각 원료를 수증기 활성화 공정을 거쳐 다공성 흡착제로 제조하여 흡착성능을 평가하였다. 세척 파쇄한 폐각원료를 $600{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$로 탄화시킨 후 $700{\sim}800^{\circ}C$의 회전로에 주입하는 수증기 활성화법에 의해 활성화공정을 수행하였다. 다양한 조건으로 제조된 폐각흡착제 중 $1000^{\circ}C$로 탄화시켜 제조된 흡착제가 다른 공정으로 제조된 흡착제에 비해 흡착능이 높게 나타났다. 또한 기상흡착과 액상흡착실험을 통해 흡착제로서의 활용가능성을 확인한 결과 기상흡착의 경우에는 기존 흡착제에 비해 현저히 떨어진 성능을 나타내었으며, 액상흡착의 경우에는 흡착질로 benzene을 선정한 경우 다른 상용 흡착제와 비교하여 거의 유사한 흡착특성을 나타내어 흡착제로서의 활용가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Recently the plastic fuel tube is usually used to reduce production cost and weight in automobiles. These days, material used to plastic fuel tube is the polyamide12. The fuel tube is made of the PA12. Post deformation of the tube has been changed by environmental temperature. So, it is important to prevent post deformation. The experiment is performed to investigate post deformation of the tube produced by each bending process. In this study, the results we obtained are used to bending process system for post deformation as the environmental temperature of the tube. It turned out that the method of steam heating and air cooling was shown less deformation than other methods.

Soybean hull is an attractive feedstock for glucose production. To increase the glucose conversion in acid hydrolysis, a pretreatment method combined steam explosion with alkali pretreatment for soybean hull was studied. For first step pretreatment, steam explosion conditions (log Ro 2.45) were optimized to obtain maximum solid recovery and cellulose content. In the second step pretreatment, the conditions for potassium hydroxide pretreatment of steam exploded soybean hull were optimized by using RSM (response surface methodology). The optimum conditions for minimum lignin content were determined to be 0.6% potassium hydroxide concentration, $70^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature and 198 min reaction time. The predicted lignin content was 2.2% at the optimum conditions. Experimental verification of the optimum conditions gave the lignin content in similar value with the estimated value of the model. Finally, glucose conversion of pretreated soybean hull using acid hydrolysis resulted in $97.1{\pm}0.4%$. This research of two-step pretreatment was a promising method for increasing the glucose conversion in the cellulose-to-glucose process.

We analyzed the micro-meteorological characteristics during typical steam fog over the Gumi Reservoir of Nakdong river with the field observation data for recent 2 year(1 April 2013~31 March 2015) collected by the national institute of meteorological research, KMA. Steam fog occur when the cold drainage flows over the warm water surface. As the sensible and latent heat from water are provided to the air, the instability of lower atmosphere is increased. The resultant vertical mixing of warm, moist air near water surface and cold air aloft causes the formation of status cloud. The convection strengthened by radiative cooling of the upper part of the stratus causes the fog to propagate downward. Also, the temperature at the lowest atmosphere is increased rapidly and the inversion near surface disappear by these processes when the fog forms. The increase of wind speed is observed because the downward transportation of momentum is caused by vertical mixing.

Methanol is a liquid fuel which could also be produced from renewable energy sources and has appreciably high energy density. In this work, we investigated the application of $Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-x}$ supported Cu and Ni catalysts for hydrogen production via methanol steam reforming. Catalysts were synthesized by solution combustion synthesis. The prepared catalysts with various active materials and Cu loading amounts were tested in a reactor at $200-300^{\circ}C$, 0-5 barg range and steam to methanol molar ratio was 1.5. The catalytic properties of Cu and Ni were compared, and the catalytic performance was shown to depend on the amounts of metal loading and operating conditions such as reaction temperature and pressure.

원전 증기발생기 2차측 제철 화학세정을 기존의 93$^{\circ}C$ 표준공정보다 고온인 1$25^{\circ}C$에서 검증시험을 수행하였다. 원전 증기발생기를 1$25^{\circ}C$에서 화학 세정한다는 가정아래 현장세정 조건을 결정하고 이를 다시 모사하여 3l 용량의 소형 검증시험 조건을 결정하였다. 1 gallon 용량의 316 스텐레스강 압력용기를 반응용기로 사용하는 화학세정 시험장치에서 검증시험을 수행하여 스러지 용해거동, 모재 부식률, 세정제 화학조성 변화거동 등을 측정하였다. 1$25^{\circ}C$ 검증시험 결과에서 93$^{\circ}C$ 표준공정보다 세정시간을 절반이하로 단축시키고도 더 효율적인 세정효과를 얻을 수 있을 뿐만이 아니라 2차측 모재의 부식률도 감소함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 고온 세정공정은 아직 현장적용 경험이 없고, 별도의 외부순환 세정 장치를 이용하는 93$^{\circ}C$ 표준공정과는 달리 주냉각재의 잠열로 2차측을 가열하므로 세정이 완료될 때까지 주냉각 펌프를 계속 가동하여야 하는 단점이 있다. 가동중인 증기발생기에 대한 화학세정을 수행할 때 93$^{\circ}C$ 표준공정과 고온공정의 장 단점을 신중히 검토하여 최적공정을 적용하여야 할 것이다.
