Synthetic gas is defined as reformed gas from hydrocarbon-based fuel and the major chemical species of the synthetic gas are $H_2$, CO and $N_2$. Among them, hydrogen from synthetic gas is very useful species in chemical process such as combustion. It is a main reason that many studies have been performed to develop an effective reforming device. Furthermore, other technologies have been studied for synthetic gas application, such as the ESGI(Exhaust Synthetic Gas Injection) technology. ESGI injects and burns synthetic gas in the exhaust pipe so that heat from hydrogen combustion helps fast warmup of the close-coupled catalyst and reduction of harmful emissions. However, it is very hard to understand combustion characteristic of hydrogen under low oxygen environment and complicated variation in chemical species in exhaust gas. This study focuses on the characteristics of hydrogen combustion under ESGI operating conditions using a CVC(Constant Volume Chamber). Measurements of pressure variation and flame speed have been performed for various oxygen and hydrogen concentrations. Results have been analyzed to understand ignition and combustion characteristics of hydrogen under lower oxygen conditions. The CVC experiments showed that under lower oxygen concentration, amount of active chemicals in the combustion chamber was a crucial factor to influence hydrogen combustion as well as hydrogen/oxygen ratio. It is also found that increase in volume fraction of oxygen is effective for the fast and stable burning of hydrogen by virtue of increase in flame speed.

고온개질기를 이용한 수증기 메탄 개질반응에 대해 실험 및 전산해석 기법을 이용하여 실제 개질기의 효율 및 개질기의 형상의 변화에 따른 열 분포 및 내부 유동에 대해서 연구하였다. 수증기 개질에 대한 반응모델은 Xu & Froment에 의해 개발된 수증기 반응 모델을 사용하였고, 그 결과로 고온개질기내에서 일어나는 화학반응은 Steam Reforming(SR), Water Gas Shift(WGS), Direct Steam Reforming(DSR) 반응이 다른 반응을 지배한다고 가정하였다. 고온개질기를 이용한 수증기 메탄 개질 반응 실험 결과로는 Steam Carbon Ratio(SCR)이 증가함에 따라 수소 수득율 또한 증가하고 일산화탄소와 메탄은 감소하는것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 입구가 한 개인 디자인과 두 개인 디자인을 비교, 분석하였을 때 입구가 두 개인 개질기보다 입구가 한 개인 개질기에서 열 분포 및 내부유동, 수소 수득율이 우수하다는 결과를 얻게 되었다.

Bead shape control with gas force process has been developed to overcome the concave back bead in pipe orbital welding. However, It is impossible to make a convex back bead using the existing gas nozzle, because it has high gas-consuming and low gas force. The purpose of this paper, to develop optimum shape of nozzle which to reduce the consumption of gas, maximizing the shield gas force with low cost and high productivity coincide the Green welding. In this paper venturi-type nozzle was designed by using the Venturi meter and compared velocity, pressure, arc shape in the flat position with existing CP-nozzle. As a result, Venturi-type nozzle's maximum velocity and pressure was improved at the same flow rate. Also heat input was increased by the arc contraction in the flat position.

The piping system accounts for a large portion of the machinery structure of a plant, and is considered as a very important mechanical structure for plant safety. Accordingly, it is used in most energy plants in the nuclear, gas, and heavy chemical industries. In particular, the piping system for a nuclear plant is generally complicated and uses the reactor and its cooling system. The piping equipment is exposed to diverse loads such as weight, temperature, pressure, and seismic load from pipes and fluids, and is used to transfer steam, oil, and gas. In ultrasound infrared thermography, which is an active thermography technology, a 15-100 kHz ultrasound wave is applied to the subject, and the resulting heat from the defective parts is measured using a thermography camera. Because this technique can inspect a large area simultaneously and detect defects such as cracks and delamination in real time, it is used to detect defects in the new and renewable energy, car, and aerospace industries, and recently, in piping defect detection. In this study, ultrasound infrared thermography is used to detect information for the diagnosis of nuclear equipment and structures. Test specimens are prepared with piping materials for nuclear plants, and the optimally designed ultrasound horn and ultrasound vibration system is used to determine damages on nuclear plant piping and detect defects. Additionally, the detected images are used to improve the reliability of the surface and internal defect detection for nuclear piping materials, and their field applicability and reliability is verified.

The interest in use of new field of energy and unused existing potential energy has been raised in number of advanced countries including South Korea. As a respond of the interest and the following reactions, a new technology which helps to reduce bad environmental factors and decrease national energy consumption rate in the way of extract cold-heat energy in dam water. This research focuses on a method that enables taking the water flows in desirable temperature range whilst keeping water temperature boundaries of bottom level water. The analysis was made in simulating on CFD. In order to keep the temperature boundary level, a deep well pump was set in piping in the simulation. As the significant result, the most alteration in temperature was found when the smallest size of pipe was plumbed. However, when the flow has small value of velocity, no matter how big the piping size was, the temperature variation was negligible. Therefore, possible hypothesis was made as bigger piping as fast flow will have better function in the way to keep the temperature boundary level.

Natural circulation systems (NCSs) are extensively applied in nuclear power plants because of their simplicity and inherent safety features. For some passive natural circulation systems in floating nuclear power plants (FNPPs), the ocean is commonly used as the heat sink. Condensation induced water hammer (CIWH) events may appear as the steam directly contacts the subcooled seawater, which seriously threatens the safe operation and integrity of the NCSs. Nevertheless, the research on the formation mechanisms of CIWH is insufficient, especially in NCSs. In this paper, the characteristics of flow rate and fluid temperature are emphatically analyzed. Then the formation types of CIWH are identified by visualization method. The experimental results reveal that due to the different size and formation periods of steam slugs, the flow rate presents continuous and irregular oscillation. The fluid in the horizontal hot pipe section near the water tank is always subcooled due to the reverse flow phenomenon. Moreover, the transition from stratified flow to slug flow can cause CIWH and enhance flow instability. Three types of formation mechanisms of CIWH, including the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability, the interaction of solitary wave and interface wave, and the pressure wave induced by CIWH, are obtained by identifying 67 CIWH events.

High voltage impulse (HVI) has been gained attention as an alternative technique that could control the CaCO₃ scale problems encountered in water main, pipe, cooling tower and heat exchanger vessels. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of electric field (E) and contact time (t) of HVI on reduction of Ca²⁺ concentration at two different temperatures of 25℃ and 60℃. A kinetic model on the effect of E and t was investigated too. As the E and t increased, the Ca²⁺ concentration decreased more than that of the control (= no HVI). The Ca²⁺ concentration decreased up to 81% at 15 kV/cm at 60℃, which was nearly 2 times greater than the control. With these experimental data-set of reduction of Ca²⁺ concentration under different E and t, the kinetic model was developed. The relationship between E and t required to reduce the concentration of Ca²⁺ by 30% was modeled at each temperature. The empirical model equations were; E^0.83· t = 60.3 at 25℃ and E^0.08· t = 1.1 at 60℃. These equations state the products of Eⁿ and t is always constant, which means that the required contact time can be reduced in accordance with the increment of E and vice versa.
