복합재 고압 용기는 우수한 기계적 강도를 유지하면서 경쟁적인 무게절감을 얻을 수 있는 복합재의 장점으로 인해 최근에 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 고압에서 발생하는 복합재의 기밀 문제(permeability)를 보완하기 위해 금속으로 덧대는 Type 3 형태의 구조로 많이 사용된다. 그러나 복잡한 기하학적 형상, 제조공정 변수 등으로 인해 차입 3 형태의 압력용기를 설계하는 데에는 많은 어려움이 뒤따른다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 변수들을 고려하는 준측지궤적 알고리즘(semi-geodesic algorithm)과 최적화를 위한 유전자 알고리즘을 적용하여 차입 3 복합재 압력용기의 GUI(graphic user interface) 최적설계 프로그램을 개발하였다. 또한 개발된 프로그램을 이용하여 연료 전지 자동차에 적용되는 350/700 바 수소저장용기에 대해 최적 설계를 수행하였다.

To store hydrogen with high pressure is one of key technologies in developing FCVs (fuel cell vehicles). Especially, metal lined composite structure, which is called Type 3, is expected to effectively stand highly pressurized hydrogen since it has high specific strength and stiffness as well as excellent storage ability. However, it has many difficulties to design Type 3 vessels because of their complex geometry, fabrication process variables, etc. In this study, therefore, optimal design of Type 3 vessels was performed in consideration of such actual circumstances using genetic algorithm. Additionally, detailed finite element analysis was followed for the optimal result.

We developed and tested the high pressure hydrogen gas cylinder(type4) for fuel cell vehicle. The working pressure is 350bar. We conducted material tests, production tests and design qualification tests on the developed cylinders according to modified NGV2-2000(hydrogen). The high pressure hydrogen gas cylinder met all the design qualification requirements of ANSI/CSA NGV2-2000 and acquired NGV2 certification from independent inspection agency.

The registration rate of eco-friendly vehicles, such as hydrogen vehicles, is increasing rapidly, however, few first responders have experienced related accidents. Accident scenarios at hydrogen refueling stations and hydrogen vehicles on a road were investigated, and the relative importance of each scenario was analyzed using AHP analysis. Leakage, jet flame, and explosion that occurred inside and outside the hydrogen refueling station were reviewed, and the hydrogen gas explosion in the compartment showed the highest importance value. In case of the hydrogen vehicle, traffic accident statistics and actual accidents were used. It was analyzed that the hydrogen vessel explosion on the road due to the failure of TPRD and the leakage in the underground parking area were difficult to respond. The developed accident scenarios are expected to be used for first responder training.

In this study, the weight of type IV pressure vessel is optimized through the burst pressure condition using the finite element analysis (FEA) based on the genetic algorithm (GA). The optimization design variables include the thickness of composite layers and the winding angles. The optimized design variables are validated using the numerical simulations for the pressure vessel. Consequently, the weight is decreased by about 6.5% as compared to the previously reported results for Type III pressure vessel. Additionally, a method which reduces the entire optimization time is proposed. In the original method, the population size is constant across all generations. However, the proposed method could reduce the workload through the reduction of the population size by half for every 25 generations. Thus, the proposed method is observed to increase the weight by about 0.1%, however, the working time for the optimization could be decreased by about 46.5%.

Green vehicles include electric vehicles, natural gas vehicles, fuel cell vehicles (FCV), and vehicles running on fuel such as a biodiesel or an ethanol blend. An FCV is equipped with a cylinder valve installed in an ultra-high pressure vessel to control the hydrogen flow. For this purpose, an optimum design of the solenoid actuator is necessary to ensure reliability when driving an FCV. In this study, an electromagnetic field analysis for ensuring reliable operation of the solenoid actuator was conducted by using Maxwell V15. The electromagnetic field analysis was performed by magnetostatic technique, according to the distance between magnetic poles in order to predict the attraction force. Finally, the attraction force was validated through comparison between the Maxwell results and measurement results. From the results, the error of attraction force ranged from 4.53 % to 9.05 % at testing conditions.

Hydrogen is bridge fuel with high energy content and environmentally friendly to satisfy the stringent IMO regulation relating to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. There is growing interest in hydrogen in numerous nations and regions illustrated by an extensive range of research and development in technology. Regarding maritime applications, researchers have recognized the utilization of hydrogen as a fuel for fuel cells, a device that converts the chemical energy of the fuel to electrical energy. Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), with high working temperature, is easy to combine with the waste heat recovery cycles/devices to increase output power and thermodynamic performances as well. Furthermore, the cold energy from liquid hydrogen supplied to SOFC can also be used to generate more power. In this study, we proposed a SOFC integrated system with the idea of combining the waste heat recovery from the SOFC exhaust stream and cold energy utilization from LH₂. The designation is aimed to target small-scale vessel which uses electric propulsion for short distances voyage.

The authors have reported significant reductions in particulate emissions of diesel engines by generating strong turbulence during the combustion process. This study aims to identify optimum conditions of turbulent mixing for effective soot reduction during combustion. The experiments were conducted with a constant volume combustion vessel equipped with abet-generating cell, in which a small amount of fuel is injected during the combustion of the main spray. The jet of burned gas from the cell impinges the main flame, causing changes In the mixing of fuel and air. Observation was made for a variety combinations of distances between spray nozzle and Jet orifice at different directions of impingement. It Is shown that compared with the case without Jet flame soot decreases when the jet impinges. When the jet is very close to the flame, it penetrates the soot cloud and causes little mixing. There were no apparent differences in the combustion duration when the direction of impingement was varied, although the mechanisms of soot reduction seemed different. An analysis of local turbulent flews with PIV (Particle image Velocimetry) showed the relationship between the scale of the turbulence and the size of the soot cloud.

수소발생용으로 사용되는 $NaBH_4$ 수용액의 저장과정 중에 $NaBH_4$ 안정성에 대해 연구하였다. $NaBH_4$의 안정성을 증가시키기 위해 NaOH와 KOH를 사용하였으며, $NaBH_4$의 저장 중 가수분해반응에 미치는 알칼리와 $NaBH_4$ 농도, 온도 그리고 저장 용기 재질의 영향을 실험하였다. 알칼리농도가 증가할수록 $NaBH_4$가 수용액 중에서 안정화되기 때문에 수소발생 속도가 감소하였다. $NaBH_4$ 농도를 10에서 15 wt%로 증가시켰을 때 안정성이 감소하다 15 wt% 이상으로 농도를 증가시켰을 때는 pH의 증가에 의해 안정성이 증가하였다. $NaBH_4$ 농도를 25 wt%, NaOH 3.0 wt%일 때 수소발생 활성화 에너지 값은 115.1 kJ/mol 로 촉매를 사용했을 때보다 활성화 에너지 값이 1.5~4.0배 높았다. 유리나 스텐리스-스틸에 저장된 $NaBH_4$ 용액의 안정성이 플라스틱에 저장된 $NaBH_4$ 용액의 안정성보다 더 높았다.
