The carbon dioxide properties change sharply near the critical or pseudo-critical point in the heat transfer processes. The reduction in turbulent, convective heat transfer parameters observed in some supercritical data and in experiments with common gases can be due to property variation, acceleration, buoyancy or combinations of these phenomena, depending on the conditions of the applications. In this study, the measurement for the secondary flow driven by buoyancy was carried out on the supercritical carbon dioxide turbulent flows in the different boundary condition with the constant mass flow rate. The available measuring techniques were used to clarify the behaviour of any supercritical fluid. Laser Doppler Velocimeter (LDV) and a special device was used to measure the secondary velocity and turbulent characteristics of the supercritical flows.

Micro- or nano-size particles are required to improve the combustion efficiency and stability in the case of solid explosives and propellants. The micro-structural properties of an energetic material strongly influence the combustion and explosion behavior. However, the traditional size reduction techniques, including milling, are not suitable for production of ultra-fine size particles. As an alternative to the traditional techniques, various re-crystallization processes based on supercritical fluids have recently been proposed. Supercritical fluids are fluids at temperatures and pressures above their critical point. In principle, they do not give problems of solvent contamination as they are completely released from the solute when the decompression occurs. Rapid Expansion Supercritical Solutions(RESS) and Supercritical Anti-Solvent Process(GAS/SAS) are representatives of a nano-size particle formation process of energetic materials using supercritical fluids. In this work, various fine particle formation processes using supercritical fluids are discussed and the results are presented.

초임계 이산화탄소에서의 이부프로펜의 용해도를 측정하였다. 이부프로펜의 용해도는 variable volume view cell이 장착되어있는 고압장치를 사용하여 cloud point를 관찰하는 방법으로 실험하였다. 온도의 범위는 35, 40, $45^{\circ}C$로 하였고 측정된 실험값은 Peng-Robinson equation of state로 모델링 하였다. 이부프로펜의 물리적 특성은 Lydersen, Ambrose 그리고 Joback의 group contribution method를 사용하여 구한 값을 사용하였고, 각각의 결과를 비교하였다. 이산화탄소는 이부프로펜에 대해 큰 용해력을 가진다는 것을 확인하였고, 150bar 부근에서 retrograde 현상이 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 또한 Lydersen의 group contribution method를 사용하여 얻어진 이부프로펜의 물리적 특성으로 PR-EOS와 함께 모델링 한 결과가 다른 method보다 실험값과 더 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 이 실험을 통해 초임계 공정으로 이부프로펜의 미세입자화 시킬 경우 용질이 용매에 용해되어야 하는 rapid expansion of supercritical solution (RESS)방법이 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Numerical analysis has been carried out to investigate laminar convective heat transfer in a tube for supercritical water near the thermodynamic critical point. Fluid flow and heat transfer are strongly coupled due to large variations of thermodynamic and transport properties such as density, specific heat, viscosity, and thermal conductivity near the critical point. Heat transfer characteristics in the developing region of the tube show transition behavior between liquid-like and gas-like phases with a peak in heat transfer coefficient distribution near the pseudocritical point. The peak of the heat transfer coefficient depends on pressure and wall heat flux rather than inlet temperature and Reynolds number, Results of the modeling provide convective heat transfer characteristics including velocity vectors, temperature, and the properties as well as the heat transfer coefficient. The effect of proximity to the critical point is considered and a heat transfer correlation is suggested for the peak of Nusselt number in the tube.

Turbulent flow and heat transfer to water at supercritical pressure flowing in vertical pipes is investigated using direct numerical simulation (DNS). A conservative space-time discretization scheme for variable-density flows at low Mach numbers is adopted in the present study to treat steep variations of fluid properties at supercritical pressure just above the thermodynamic critical point. The fluid properties at these conditions are obtained using PROPATH and used in the form of tables in the simulations. The buoyancy influence induced by strong variation of density across the pseudo-critical temperature proved to play an important role in turbulent flow and heat transfer at supercritical state. Depending on the degree of buoyancy influence, turbulent heat transfer may be enhanced or significantly deteriorated, resulting in local hot spots along the heated surface.

Numerical analysis has been carried out to investigate laminar convective heat transfer at zero gravity in a tube for supercritical water near the thermodynamic critical point. Fluid flow and heat transfer are strongly coupled due to large variation of thermodynamic and transport properties such as density, specific heat, viscosity, and thermal conductivity near the critical point. Heat transfer characteristics in the developing region of the tube show transition behavior between liquid-like and gas-like phases with a peak in heat transfer coefficient distribution near the pseudo critical point. The peak of the heat transfer coefficient depends on pressure and wall heat flux rather than inlet temperature and Reynolds number. Results of the modeling provide convective heat transfer characteristics including velocity vectors, temperature, and the properties as well as the heat transfer coefficient. The effect of proximity on the critical point is considered and a heat transfer correlation is suggested for the peak of Nusselt number in the tube.

With evolution in the production environment of the textile industry, the need for non-water-based dyeing technologies and eco-friendly process facilities in the dyeing and processing stages has increased. In recent years, supercritical fluid dyes have been developed and commercialized in Europe, centering on this demand. However, so far, such dyes have been mainly applied in the processing of PET fibers. Basic research has mainly involved investigation of dyeing by supercritical carbon dioxide or solubility of such dyes, and more in-depth research should be continuously carried out. In this review, we describe the types and characteristics of supercritical fluids that exhibit specific properties at pressures and temperatures over the critical point. In addition, the state of the art in the dyeing and processing technology using supercritical fluids and associated, processing problems, environmental regulation, and wastewater treatment issues are described in detail. We hope this review can contribute to the supercritical fluid technology being further developed as an environment friendly dyeing processing method. Furthermore, we expect that the technique can be used as a means of ensuring different, high-quality dyed products.

The cyclic butylene terephthalte oligomer was synthesized and the composition of butylenes terephthalate cyclic oligomers was 51.2 % of dimer, 28.1 % of trimer, 7.9 % of tetramer, 8 % of pentamer and 4.8% of hexamer. Polybuthylene terephthalate was polymerized using this cyclic oligomer in the condition of melt process and supercritical process. And PBT/clay nanocomposite were manu- factured from melt process and supercritical process. Chlorodifluoro- methane(HCFC-22) was used as a solvent which has critical point ($Tc=96.2^{\circ}C$, Pc=49.7bar). Also polymer nanocomposite were manufactured using rapid expansion of supercritical solution process.

본 실험에서는 추진기관 연료의 주 성분으로 사용되는 액체 탄화수소 화합물의 초임계 분사 거동 특성을 분석하기 위해서 고속카메라 이미지를 활용한 실험을 수행하였다. 케로신의 구성성분 중 임계점의 차이가 있는 Decane과 Methylcyclohexane (MCH)를 실험 유체로 선정하였으며, 분석을 위해 Shadowgraphy 기법을 사용하였다. 제트 분사 시 임계온도 조건 하에서 각 유체의 환산압력에 따라 케이스를 나누었다. 아임계 조건의 동일한 인젝터 초기상태에서 기화가 발생하기까지 온도변화량의 차이에 따라 Decane과 MCH는 서로 다른 거동을 보였다. 하지만 초임계 조건에서는 같은 온도변화량이 필요하더라도 임계점 부근에서는 증발엔탈피가 0에 가까워져 기화과정이 아닌 초임계 유체로의 상변화가 일어나고 급격한 밀도변화가 없어 Decane과 MCH 모두 원기둥 형상의 액주가 관측되었다.

바이오디젤은 화석연료인 경유의 대체에너지로써 비독성이고 재생 가능한 에너지이다. 바이오디젤생산방법은 크게 산 염기 초임계 효소방법으로 분류되는데 본 연구에서 친환경적으로 바이오디젤을 생산할 수 있는 초임계공정과 효소고정화공정에 대해 연구하였다. 연간 10,000톤의 바이오디젤을 생산하는 공정을 대상으로 PRO II 공정모사기를 통해 전환률과 에너지소비량을 알아보기 위한 공정모사를 실시하였다. 그 결과 초임계공정에서의 전환률은 91.17%(0.9% 글리세롤 포함), 효소고정화공정에서는 93.58%(1.0% 글리세롤 포함)로 나타났다. 이 결과는 효소고정화공정이 높은 전환률을 보였지만 바이오디젤의 순도는 초임계공정에서 높게 나타났음을 보여준다. 한편, 에너지소비량 측면에서 초임계공정과 효소고정화공정이 각각 8.9, 3.9MW를 나타났다. 즉, 초임계 공정이 효소고정화공정에 비하여 2.3배 많은 에너지를 소모한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
