가압 조건하에서의 석탄가스화 특성을 규명하기 위해, 온도, 압력, 산소/석탄비, 수증기/석탄비 등을 변화시켜가며 로토탄(Sub A)에 대하여 PDTF(Pressurized drop tube furnace) 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과, 상압 조건에서보다 가압조건에서의 가스화가 탄소 전환율과 냉가스효율의 측면에서 더 유리한 것으로 측정되었다. 최대의 냉가스효율을 보이는 산소/석탄비(무게기준)는 0.5∼0.7(g/g)로 측정되었고, 온도가 충분히 높은 경우에만 수증기/석탄비의 증가가 냉가스효율의 증가를 가져왔다. 압력이 증가할수록 열분해에 의한 탄소전환의 비중은 감소하고 대신 기고반응(heterogeneous reaction)에 의한 탄소전환의 비중이 증가하였다.

압전 진동 에너지 수확 장치의 설계 및 성능 평가 시 에너지 변환 효율을 고려하는 것은 매우 당연하다. 본 연구에서 고려하는 에너지 변환 효율은 부하 저항이 부착된 압전 진동 에너지 수확 장치에 입력되는 가진 진동 파워 대비 전기 출력 값으로 정의된다. 기존의 연구에서는 근사적으로 임피던스 정합된 부하 저항에서의 전기 출력을 고려한 반면, 본 연구에서는 최적의 임피던스 정합 값을 사용하여 새롭게 에너지 변환 효율 식을 유도하였다. 유도된 식의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 3 개의 서로 다른 전기-역학 연성 계수 값을 갖는 진동 에너지 수확 장치에 대한 유한 요소 해석 결과를 이용하였다. 또한, 부하 저항의 임피던스 정합 방법의 차이에 따른 에너지 변환 및 변환 효율 특성을 살펴보았다.

The present study reported of the use of special shaped blade to reduce the difference in pressure across the Wells turbine for wave energy conversion. The blade profile was composed of NACA0020 airfoils and trailing edge was notched like chevron. Experiments were performed investigating the influence of trailing edge shape on the turbine performance. Four notch depths were used to investigate the effect of depth of cut on the turbine performance. As results, by placing a notch-cut at the trailing edge of the blade, it was possible to reduce the pressure difference across the turbine without lowering the efficiency. In addition, the pressure difference substantially reduced at a constant rate with the increase of the cut ratio.

최근 비식용 바이오매스 자원인 미세조류를 이용하여 배가스 내의 이산화탄소를 저감함과 동시에 바이오연료를 생산하는 공정이 개발되고 있다. 미세조류 바이오연료 전환 공정은 미세조류 경작, 수확, 추출, 전환 등의 다양한 공정들이 연속적으로 이용된다. 이에 따라 실제 에너지 생산 효과에 대한 우려가 여전히 존재한다. 본 연구는 석탄 발전소에서 배출되는 배가스를 이용하여 파일럿 광생물 반응기에서 생산되는 미세조류를 대상으로 바이오연료 전환에 따른 실에너지 효율을 계산하였다. 에너지 전환 공정은 전이에스터화, 열분해 공정을 선정하였으며 미세조류의 지질 함량에 따른 영향을 검토하였다. 미세조류 바이오연료 전환 공정들은 경작, 수확, 추출, 전환 등에 소요되는 에너지보다 많은 양의 에너지를 가지는 바이오연료를 생산할 수 있으며 지질 함량이 높은 미세조류는 열분해보다 전이 에스터화 반응이 효과적이었다.

Biomass derived jet fuel is proven as a potential alternative for the currently used fossil oriented energy. The efficient production of jet fuel precursor with special molecular structure is prerequisite in producing biomass derived jet fuel. We synthesized a new jet fuel precursor containing branched $C_{15}$ framework by aldol condensation of furfural (FA) and ethyl levulinate (EL), where the latter of two could be easily produced from lignocellulose by acid catalyzed processes. The highest yield of 56% for target jet fuel precursor could be obtained at the optimal reaction condition (molar ratio of FA/EL of 2, 323 K, 50 min) by using KOH as catalyst. The chemical structure of $C_{15}$ precursor was specified as (3E, 5E)-6-(furan-2-yl)-3-(furan-2-ylmethylene)-4-oxohex-5-enoic acid ($F_2E$). For stabilization, this yellowish solid precursor was hydrogenated at low temperature to obtain C=C bonds saturated product, and the chemical structure was proposed as 4-oxo-6-(tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-3-(tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-methyl hexanoic acid ($H-F_2E$). The successful synthesis of the new jet fuel precursors showed the significance that branched jet fuel could be potentially produced from biomass derived FA and EL via fewer steps.

This paper is suggested an optimal switching angle of a switched reluctance motor drive system for maximum energy ratio. A new magnetizing method with a low-frequency increasing the energy conversion ratio that is related to the efficiency of motor is proposed As results, it improves the efficiency about 2[$\%$]. And a torque ripple is also reduced compared with that of the conventional switching angle magnetizing approach. In order to start softly regardless of a large ripple torque, the profile of phase current is predicted and current control mode was adapted when it is operated under the starting speed.

Limited sources of fossil fuels and also global climate changes caused by $CO_2$ emissions are currently discussed around the world. As a renewable, carbon neutral and widely available energy source, biogas is regarded as a promising alternative to fossil fuels. In this study, a plasma dump reformer was proposed to produce $H_2$-rich synthesis gas by a model biogas. The three-phase gliding arc plasma and dump combustor were combined. Screening studies were carried out with the parameter of a dump injector flow rate, water feeding flow rate, air ratio, biogas component ratio and input power. As the results, methane conversion rate, carbon dioxide conversion rate, hydrogen selectivity, carbon monoxide yield at the optimum conditions were achieved to 98%, 69%, 42%, 24.7%, respectively.

This paper presents a modeling and simulation of a fuzzy controller for maximum power extraction of a grid-connected wind energy conversion system with a link of a rectifier and an inverter. It discusses the maximum power control algorithm for a wind turbine and proposes, in a graphical form, the relationships of wind turbine output, rotor speed, power coefficient, tip-speed ratio with wind speed when the wind turbine is operated under the maximum power control. The control objective is to always extract maximum power from wind and transfer the power to the utility by controlling both the pitch angle of the wind turbine blades and the inverter firing angle. Pitch control method is mechanically complicated, but the control performance is better than that of the stall regulation method. The simulation results performed on MATLAB will show the variation of generator's rotor angle and rotor speed, pitch angle, and generator output.

A lab-scale test was carried out to study the reduction of electrical energy consumption in the pulsed corona discharge process for nitrogen oxides removal. The experiment was mainly focused on 1) the activation of pollution removal reactions by chemical additives and 2) the optimization of electrical circuit for the efficient energy transfer from the power supply to the corona reactor. Hydrocarbon chemical additives used in the experiment are thought to be responsible for the enhancement of the NO conversion through the chain reactions of free radicals such as, R, RCO, and RO. Electrical energy consumption per converted NO molecule has a minimum value of 17 eV when pentanol is injected. When ethylene and propylene are injected, 30 eV and 22 eV of electrical energy consumption is required for the conversion of NO molecule respectively. The ratio of the pulse forming capacitance$(C_e)$ to the reactor capacitance$(C_R)$ plays an important role in the energy transfer efficiency to the reactor. Maximum energy transfer efficiency of approximately 72% could be obtained by using the pulse forming capacitance which is 3.4 times larger than the reactor capacitance, and also the maximum NO conversion efficiency was observed with the same condition.
