The fluid-flow characteristics of flue-gas-recirculation (FGR) system can have a significant effect on system efficiency of a sintering plant. The flow characteristics in the system were investigated. A sintering plant with FGR system was modeled. Numerical visualization was performed and flow characteristics were analyzed. Characteristics of the flow distribution of the branch ducts, the inflow of air into the recirculating hood, and the flow in the hood were discussed. Based on the results three suggestions were proposed: (1) distribution of branch duct flowrate upstream, (2) installation of external air ducts in the hood, and (3) installation of baffles at the hood corners. The suggestions were tested numerical and experimental visualization methods. The suggestions were effective and confirmed to be applicable to the actual sinter plant.

가스 정압기지 내의 가스 정압기는 배관 내의 높은 가스의 압력을 일정한 압력으로 낮추는 역할을 한다. 가스 정압기는 흐르는 가스의 유동을 제어할 뿐 아니라, 하류의 압력을 제어하는 데도 사용한다. 가스 정압기지의 안전성을 위해서 정압기와 정압기에 연결되어 있는 안전밸브의 유동 특성을 파악하는 것은 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 정압기의 질량 유량 및 유동 특성을 다양한 입구 및 출구 압력 조건, 그리고 개도율에 대하여 수치해석 방법을 이용하여 알아보았다. 이러한 질량 유량에 대한 수치해석 결과는 정압기 제조사로부터 제안되는 실험 수식을 통하여 검증하였다. 결론적으로, 수치해석 결과와 실험 수식을 통해 얻어진 결과가 잘 일치함을 알 수 있다.

가스 레귤레이터에 동일한 유량을 공급할 때 발생하는 압력 강하 현상을 분석하였다. 레귤레이터는 특정 범주의 환경에서 일정한 압력을 토출하기 위해 피스톤 상/하부에 작용하는 힘과 스프링 장력 간의 상호 작용으로 피스톤의 위치를 이동시켜 압력을 유지하는 특성이 있다. 레귤레이터 내부의 유체의 체적이 변화함에 따른 레귤레이터의 유동특성과 압력제어과정을 수치해석기법을 통해 분석하였다. 피스톤과 피스톤 시트 사이의 간격이 감소함에 따라 압력 강하가 증가하고 유속이 증가하였다. 압력-유량시험과 동일한 조건(입구압력 3MPa, 출구압력 0.8MPa, 유량 70kg/h)에서 피스톤이 0.12mm에 위치함을 수치해석을 통해 검증하였다.

The aim of this study is to improve the purification efficiency of odor gas by increasing the contact area between an odor gas and adsorbent. To analyze the flow in the adsorption tower, the flow characteristics in the hollow activated carbon-adsorption tower are identified by applying the loss model, which is a porous flow analysis model. The flow characteristics are investigated for pressure loss, velocity distribution, turbulent kinetic energy, and residence time distribution. The results show that the hollow adsorption tower performs better than the solid adsorption tower in terms of pressure loss and performance. The inner diameter of the hollow region inside the adsorption tower is 0.64 m (Di/Do = 0.37). Furthermore, the adsorbent performance is unaffected even when adsorbent stages are installed to replace the adsorbent.

The "energy separation phenomenon" through a vortex tube has been a long-standing mechanical engineering problem whose operational principle is not yet known. In order to find the operational principle of the vortex tube, CFD analysis of the flow field in the vortex tube has been carried out. It was found that the energy separation mechanism in the vortex tube consists of basically two major thermodynamic-fluid mechanical processes. One is the isentropic expansion process at the inlet nozzle, during which the gas temperature is nearly isentropically cooled. Second process is the viscous dissipation heating due to the high level of turbulence in both flow passages toward cold gas exit as well as the hot gas exit of the vortex tube. Since the amount of such a viscous heating is different between the two passages, the gas temperature at the cold exit is much lower than that at the hot exit.

Anodic overpotential has been investigated with gas composition changes in a $100cm^2$ class molten carbonate fuel cell. The overpotential was measured with steady state polarization, reactant gas addition (RA), inert gas step addition (ISA), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods at different anodic inlet gas compositions, i.e., $H_2:CO_2:H_2O=0.69:0.17:0.14\;atm\;and\;H_2:CO_2:H_2O=0.33:0.33:0.33\;atm$, at a fixed $H_2$ flow rate. The results demonstrate that the anodic overpotential decreases with increasing $CO_2\;and\;H_2O$ flow rates, indicating the anode reaction is a gas-phase mass-transfer control process of the reactant species, $H_2,\;CO_2,\;and\;H_2O$. It was also found that the mass-transfer resistance due to the $H_2$ species slightly increases at higher $CO_2\;and\;H_2O$ flow rates. EIS showed reduction of the lower frequency semi-circle with increasing $H_2O\;and\;CO_2$ flow rate without affecting the high frequency semi-circle.

HVOF thermal spray guns are now being widely used to produce protective coatings, on the surfaces of engineering components. HVOF technology employs a combustion process to heat the gas flow and melt the coating materials which are particles of metals, alloys or cermets. Particle flow which is accelerated to high velocities and combustion gas stream are deposited on a substrate. In order to obtain good quality coatings, the analysis of torch design must be performed. The reason is that the design parameters of torch influence gas dynamic behaviors. In this study, numerical analysis is performed to predict the gas dynamic behaviors in a HVOF thermal spray gun with various torch shapes. The CFD model is used to deduce the effect of changes in nozzle geometry on gas dynamics. Using a commercial code, FLUENT which uses Finite Volume Method and SIMPLE algorithm, governing equations have been solved for the pressure, velocity and temperature distributions in the HVOF thermal spray torch.

Thermal spray coatings developed by deposition of splats, it formed by impacting molten droplets on substrates during thermal spray process. In this study, the Ni-based coatings were fabricated by thermal spray process with two different process parameters, oxygen gas flow and acetylene gas flow, with three different levels of each parameters. The morphology of splats and microstructure were observed by optical microscope. Hardness test were performed on the Ni-based coatings. It was confirmed that process parameters of thermal spray process have effect in morphology of splats. These effects also have important implications on the deposit microstructure and properties of Ni-based coatings.
