본 논문에서는 순수한 액체상태의 온수 단위 질량을 대상으로 동력발생에서부 터 열펌프 까지의 가능한 응용을 고려하여 온도에 따른 최적 사용방법과 최대성능 발 휘시의 용량산정을 통하여 온수의 최적능력을 확인하고자 한다. 단 본 연구의 결과 는 순수히 열역하적인 것으로 경제적 관점에서 본다면 다소 다른 견해가 있을 수 있겠 으나 열역학적 및 경제적 관점 사이의 관계 및 제2법칙의 역할의 중요성은 이미 여러 논문에서 충분히 거론된 것으로서 여기서 언급하지 않는다.

To increase the reliability of auto-ignition in CAI engines, the thermodynamic properties of intake flow is often controlled using recycled exhaust gases, called internal EGR. Because of the internal EGR influence on the overall thermodynamic properties and mixing quality of the gases that affect the subsequent combustion behavior, optimizing the intake and exhaust valve timing for the EGR is important to achieve the reliable auto-ignition and high thermal efficiency. In the present study, fully 3D numerical simulations were carried out to predict the mixing characteristics and flow field inside the cylinder as a function of valve timing. The 3D unsteady Eulerian-Lagrangian two-phase model was used to account for the interaction between the intake air and remaining internal EGR during the under-lap operation while varying three major parameters: the intake valve(IV) and exhaust valve(EV) timings and intake valve lift(IVL). Computational results showed that the largest EVC retardation, as in A6, yielded the optimal mixing of both EGR and fuel. The IV timing had little effect on the mixing quality. However, the IV timing variation caused backflow from the cylinder to the intake port. With respect to reduction of heat loss due to backflow, the case in B6 was considered to present the optimal operating condition. With the variation of the intake valve lift, the A1 case yielded the minimum amount of backflow. The best mixing was delivered when the lift height was at a minimum of 2 mm.

In a gas engine, the exhaust and the engine cooling water are generated. The engine cooling water temperature is $100^{\circ}C$ and the exhaust temperature is $500^{\circ}C$. The amount of heat of engine cooling water is 43 kW and the amount of heat of exhaust is 21 kW. Eight different hybrid organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system configurations which considering different amount and temperature of waste heat are proposed for two gas engine tri-generation system and are thermodynamically analyzed. Simple system which concentrating two different waste heat on relatively low temperature engine cooling water shows highest thermal efficiency of 7.84% with pressure ratio of 3.67 and shaft power of 5.17 kW.

The process of charge transfer at the interface between two semiconductors or between a metal and a semiconductor plays an important role in many areas of technology. The optimization of such devices requires a good theoretical description of the interfaces involved. This, in turn, has motivated detailed mechanistic studies of interfacial charge-transfer reactions at metal/organic, organic/organic, and organic/inorganic semiconductor heterojunctions. Charge recombination of photo-induced electron with redox species such as oxidized dyes or triiodide or cationic HTM (hole transporting materials) at the heterogeneous interface of $TiO_2$ is one of main loss factors in liquid junction DSSCs or solid-state DSSCs, respectively. Among the attempts to prevent recombination reactions such as insulating thin layer and lithium ions-doped hole transport materials and introduction of co-adsorbents, although co-adsorbents retard the recombination reactions as hydrophobic energy barriers, little attention has been focused on the anchoring processes. Molecular engineering of heterogeneous interfaces by employing several co-adsorbents with different properties altered the surface properties of $TiO_2$ electrodes, resulting to the improved power conversion efficiency and long-term stability of the DSSCs. In this talk, advantages of the coadsorbent-assisted sensitization of N719 in preparation of DSSCs will be discussed.

초전도 전력 케이블의 상용화 노력에 따라 점차 장선화 되면서, 단위 냉각 시스템당 냉각용량이 큰 대용량 냉동기의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 국내에서는 극저온 냉동기에 대한 기술 부족으로 인해 현재 극저온 냉동기는 해외 선진사로부터 고가의 비용으로 수입되고 있다. 초전도 전력 케이블의 상용화를 위해서는 대용량 브레이튼 냉동기의 국내 개발이 시급하다. 대용량 브레이튼 냉동기의 구성은 복열식 열교환기, 압축기, 극저온 터보 팽창기로 구성되어 있으며, 냉동기 효율과 가장 직접적인 연관이 있는 것은 극저온 터보 팽창기이다. 극저온 터보 팽창기는 극저온에서 고속으로 회전하면서 고압의 헬륨 혹은 네온 가스를 팽창시켜 온도를 낮추는 역할을 한다. 본 논문에서는 역브레이튼 냉동 사이클을 설계하고, 이에 적합한 극저온 터보 팽창기를 설계하였다.

A KALIMER-600 concept which is a type of sodium-cooled fast reactor, has been developed at KAERI. It uses sodium as a primary coolant and is a pool-type reactor to enhance safety. Also, a supercritical carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) Brayton cycle is considered as an alternative to an energy conversion system to eliminate the sodium water reaction and to improve efficiency. In this study, a simplified model for analyzing the thermodynamic performance of the KALIMER-600 coupled with a supercritical $CO_2$ Brayton cycle was developed. To develop the analysis model, a commercial modular modeling system (MMS) was adopted as a base engine, which was developed by nHance Technology in USA. It has a convenient graphical user interface and many component modules to model the plant. A new user library for thermodynamic properties of sodium and supercritical $CO_2$ was developed and attached to the MMS. In addition, some component modules in the MMS were modified to be appropriate for analysis of the KALIMER-600 coupled with the supercritical $CO_2$ cycle. Then, a simplified performance analysis code was developed by modeling the KALIMER-600 plant with the modified MMS. After evaluating the developed code with each component data and a steady state of the plant, a simple power reduction and recovery event was evaluated. The results showed an achievable capability for a performance analysis code. The developed code will be used to develop the operational strategy and some control logics for the operation of the KALIMER-600 with a supercritical $CO_2$ Brayton cycle after further studies of analyzing various operational events.

In this study, optimization was performed to improve the conventional liquefaction process of offshore plants, such as a LNG-FPSO(Liquefied Natural Gas-Floating, Production, Storage, and Offloading unit) by maximizing the energy efficiency of the process. The major equipments of the liquefaction process are compressors, expanders, and heat exchangers. These are connected by stream which has some thermodynamic properties, such as the temperature, pressure, enthalpy or specific volume, and entropy. For this, a process design problem for the liquefaction process of offshore plants was mathematically formulated as an optimization problem. The minimization of the total energy requirement of the liquefaction process was used as an objective function. Governing equations and other equations derived from thermodynamic laws acted as constraints. To solve this problem, the sequential quadratic programming(SQP) method was used. To evaluate the proposed method in this study, it was applied to the natural gas liquefaction process of the LNG-FPSO. The result showed that the proposed method could present the improved liquefaction process minimizing the total energy requirement as compared to conventional process.

본 연구는 W1/O/W2 이중유화법을 통한 마이크로 캡슐화 공정을 최적화하기 위해 역미셀(reverse micelle), salt 농도 등의 열역학적 변수와 유체의 점도, 계면장력 등 계면의 유동에 영향을 미치는 공정변수들의 영향성을 분석하였다. 아스코르브산의 PLA (polylactic acid) 미립자 내부로의 캡슐화 효율에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변수는 W1과 W2상의 삼투압의 차이로 W2상의 salt 농도를 높이거나, W1상의 아스코르브산 농도를 줄이면 캡슐화 효율이 높아짐을 관찰하였다. 또한, 삼투압의 차이가 클수록 미립자 표면의 손상이 심해짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 캡슐화 효율을 높일 것으로 예상되었던 역미셀 도입은 그 기여도가 낮거나 오히려 캡슐화 효율을 낮추었다. 마이크로캡슐의 수율은 공정 조건, 용액 조성 등과 상관없는 universal 함수로 표현하였는데, Ca > 20에서는 더 이상의 수율 증가가 관찰되지 않았다.

Inhibition performance of Lornoxicam & Tenoxicam against corrosion of carbon steel in 1M $H_2SO_4$ solutions was investigated by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The inhibition efficiency increased with increasing inhibitor's concentration, but decreased with increase in temperature. Potentiodynamic polarization curves showed that, the inhibitors were of mixed type. The apparent activation energy ($E^*_a$) and other thermodynamic parameters for the corrosion process have also been calculated and discussed. The inhibition of carbon steel corrosion is due to the adsorption of the inhibitor molecules on the surface, which follows Temkin adsorption isotherm. The mechanism of inhibition was discussed in the light of the chemical structure of the undertaken inhibitors.
