Capturing the carbon dioxide emitted from coal-fired power plants will be necessary if targeted reduction in carbon emissions is to be achieved. Modelling and simulation are the base for optimal operation and control in thermal power plant and also play an important role in energy savings. This study aims to analyze the performance of supercritical coal fired power plant through steady and dynamic simulation using a commercial software gCCS. A whole power plant has been modeled and validated with design data of 500 MWe power plant, base and part load operations of the plant were also evaluated, consequently it had been proven that the simulated result had a good agreement with actual operating data. In addition, the effect of co-firng on the plant efficiency and flue gases were investigated using gCCS simulator.

Recent modeling of thermal nonequilibrium processes in simple molecules like hydrogen and nitrogen has indicated that rotational nonequilibrium becomes as important as vibrational nonequilibrium at high temperatures. In the present work, in order to analyze rovibrational nonequilibrium, the rotational mode is separated from the translational-rotational mode that is usually considered as an equilibrium mode in two- and multi-temperature models. Then, the translational, rotational, and electron-electronic-vibrational modes are considered separately in describing the thermochemical nonequilibrium of nitrogen behind a strong normal shock wave. The energy transfer for each energy mode is described by recently evaluated relaxation time parameters including the rotational-to-vibrational energy transfer. One-dimensional post-normal shock flow equations are constructed with these thermochemical models, and post-normal shock flow calculations are performed for the conditions of existing shock-tube experiments. In comparisons with the experimental measurements, it is shown that the present thermochemical model is able to describe the rotational and electron-electronic-vibrational relaxation processes of nitrogen behind a strong shock wave.

The SI thermochemical cycle process accomplishes water splitting through distinctive three chemical reactions. We focused on thermodynamic models applicable to the process. Recently, remarkable models based on the assumed ionic species have been developed to describe highly nonideal behavior on the liquid phase reactions. ElecNRTL models with ionic reactions were proposed in order to provide reliable process simulation results for phase equilibrium calculations in Section II and III. In this study, the current thermodynamic models of SI thermochemical cycle process were briefly described and the calculation results of the applied ElecNRTL models for phase equilibrium calculations were illustrated for binary systems.

In this work, hydrogen production by a 2-step water-spritting thermochemical cycle based on metal oxides redox pairs was investigated on the bases of the thermodynamics and technical feasibility. Also, a 2nd-law analysis performed on the closed cyclic process indicates a maximum exergy conversion efficiency of 7.1% when using a solar cavity-receiver operated at 2300K and air/Fe3O4 molar ratio = 10.

Development of carbon-neutral fuel production technologies to solve climate change issues is progressing worldwide. Among them, methane can be produced through the synthesis of hydrogen produced by renewable energy and carbon dioxide captured through a CO₂ methanation reaction, and the fuel produced in this way is called synthetic methane or e-methane. The CO₂ methanation reaction can be conducted via biological or thermochemical methods. In this study, a 30 Nm³/h thermochemical CO₂ methanation process consisting of an isothermal reactor and an adiabatic reactor was used. The CO₂ conversion rate and methane concentration according to the temperature measurement results at the center and outside of the adiabatic reactor were analyzed. The gas flow into the adiabatic reactor was found to reach equilibrium after about 1.10 seconds or more by evaluating the residence time. Furthermore, experimental and analysis results were compared to evaluate performance of the reactor.

The current energy supply system is burdened by environmental and supply problems. The concept of a hydrogen economy has been actively discussed worldwide. KAERI has set up a plan to demonstrate massive production of hydrogen using a VHTR by the early 2020s. The technological gap to meet this goal was identified during the past few years. The hydrogen production process, a process heat exchanger, the efficiency of an I/S thermochemical cycle, the manufacturing of components, the analysis tools of VHTR, and a coated particle fuel are key areas that require urgent development. Candidate NHDD plant designs based on a 200 MWth VHTR core and I/S thermochemical process have been studied and some of analysis results are presented in this paper.

로켓 엔진 노즐의 설계에서 동결 유동 해법과 동일한 수치적 특성을 가지는 화학 평형 해석은 노즐의 열역학적 최대 성능을 예측하는 효율적인 설계 도구로 이용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄화수소 연료 로켓 엔진 설계를 위한 화학적 평형 유동 해석 코드를 개발하였다. 로켓 노즐을 통한 팽창과정에서 일어나는 화학 성분의 재결합 효과와 이에 수반하는 에너지 회복과 같은 열화학적 특징을 이해하기 위하여, KSR-III 로켓 노즐에 대하여 동결유동 해석 및 비평형 유동의 해석과 더불어 화학적 평형 유동 해석을 수행하였다. 유동 해석 결과에 기초한 KSR-III 엔진 성능 평가로부터 노즐에서의 열화학적 특징을 이해할 수 있었으며, 이와 더불어 열화학적인 효과를 고려할 때 출구 면적비를 줄여서 수정된 새로운 노즐 형상이 지상 추력을 증대시키기 위한 적절한 설계임을 확인할 수 있었다.

Solar energy conversion to hydrogen was carried out via a two-step thermochemical water splitting using metal oxide redox pair. To simulate the solar radiation, a 7 kW short arc Xe-lamp was used. Partially reduced iron oxide and cerium oxide have the water splitting ability, respectively. So, $Fe_3O_4$ supported on $CeO_2$ was selected as the active material. $Fe_3O_4/CeO_2$(20 wt/80 wt%) was prepared by impregnation method, then the active material was washcoated on the ceramic honeycomb monolith made of mullite and cordierite. Oxygen was released at the reduction step($1673{\sim}1823\;K$) and hydrogen was produced from water at lower temperature($873{\sim}1273\;K$). The result demonstrate the possibility of the 2-step thermochemical water splitting hydrogen production by the active material washcoated monolith. And hydrogen and oxygen was produced separately without any separation process in a monolith installed reactor. But the SEM and EDX analysis results revealed that the support used in this experiment is not suitable due to the thermal instability and coating material migration.

산업현장의 대형 연소시스템 내부의 온도 및 농도를 실시간으로 정밀하게 계측하는 일은 그 규모 및 환경 조건으로 인해 사실상 어렵다. 현재 주로 사용되고 있는 열전대를 이용한 온도 계측은 점 측정 방식으로 대형 연소시스템 내부 광역 범위의 온도 분석에 적용하기에는 정밀성과 신뢰성이 낮으며, 접근성에 한계가 있다. 농도 분석 측면에서 대부분의 계측 방법은 샘플링 방식으로 실시간 측정이 어렵고 대표성에 한계가 있다. 이러한 한계점을 극복하기 위한 방법으로, 레이저를 이용한 측정법이 지속적으로 개발되고 있다. 레이저 기반 측정법들은 선 평균 측정 방식으로 대표성과 정밀도가 뛰어나 대형 연소시스템 적용에 유리하다. 본 연구에서는 파장 가변형 레이저 흡수 분광법(Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy, TDLAS)을 통해 연소 시에 발생하는 수증기와 산소를 이용하여 실시간으로 온도 및 농도를 측정하였다. 측정 결과 연소시스템 내부 평균 온도는 1330℃, 평균 산소 농도는 3.3 %로 발전소 데이터와 비교하였을 때 유사한 경향성의 측정값을 얻었다.
