For the purpose of drawing up deep sea water without pump pit construction, tile authors are considering to use air-lift pump. This report describes fundamental experimental investigation for air-lift pump characteristic and improvement in efficiency.

A sea water source cascade heat pump was designed and tested in this study. The system was designed to perform a single stage operation in summer, as well as a cascade operation in winter to ensure the high temperature lift. A steady-state simulation model was developed to analyze and optimize its performance. The simulation results show that the R717 exhibits best performance among combinations considered in this study. A R410A also exhibits the highest performance among HFCs with the smallest compressor displacement. A 15-RT R410A-R134a pilot system was installed in the 5-story commercial building at Samcheok City by the East Sea. A scroll type R410A compressor, a reciprocating type R134a compressor, plate type condenser/evaporator/ cascade heat exchanger and two electronic expansion valves were used to build a pilot. A titanium plate type heat exchanger is also used for the heat exchanging with a sea water. The heat source/sink water is supplied from the well below the seashore in the depth of 5 m. In the initial test of the system, supply water temperature was rising up to $67^{\circ}C$ using a sea water heat source of $9^{\circ}C$, while an ambient temperature was $4.5^{\circ}C$.

This paper deals with the detail rotordynamic analysis for the vertical rotor system as development of vertical sea water lift pump for FPSO deep well. In a vertical rotor system, since linearized stiffness and damping coefficients of fluid film bearing are no longer be valid, hence the transient response analysis considering a fluid film force for every journal position in the bearing needs to be required. In this study, the transient response analysis of the proposed vertical pump rotor system was carried out in dry-run and wet-run conditions, respectively. The results show that orbital vibration responses of the rotor system remain stable at rated speed and thereby operating reliability of the vertical rotor system is confirmed. To overcome complexity of calculation pr ocedure and time consuming calculation of transient analysis, the calculating technique of steady-state response analysis is also proposed. The results of steady-state response obtained by applying the proposed technique to the rotor system are good agreement with the reference results, that is, transient responses.

Due to the increase in capacity of auxiliary machinery in power plant, the importance of energy saving has been greatly emphasized. If the speed of fans or pumps is controlled in accordance with the variation of load, large electric energy can be saved. Large capacity inverter, 2MVA GTO inverter, has been developed by operating two of 1MVA unit inverters in parallel. The parallel operation of the unit inverter is accomplished through two output transformers of which the secondary windings are connected in series. The system is composed of one control cubicle, one rectifier cubicle and 2 unit inverter cubicles. This inverter system was applied to the sea water lift pump(SLP) driven by a 6.6KV 1500KW induction motor in Seo-Inchon power plant to save the electric energy. The parallel operation of inverters by 180 degrees apart in switching frequency helps to reduce the harmonic components.

발전설비의 대형화로 인하여 소내소비 전력량이 점점 증가하고 있는 추세이며 대용량의 화력발전소라 하더라도 기저부하보다는 부하조정의 역할이 강해져 정격속도로 운전하던 팬, 펌프등을 필요 부하에 따라 회전수를 제어하여 전력절감을 꾀하여야 할 필요가 있다[1]. 이에 따라 생산기술개발 과제로 개발한 대용량 GTO 인버터 시스템을 서 인천복합화력발전소의 3상 6600V 1500KW 용량인 전동기 구동 해수펌프에 적용하기 위한 기술적 검토 내용과 계산된 전력 절감량을 제시하였다. 적용 시스템으로는 개발된 3상 660V 1MVA 단위 인버터를 병렬 운전시켜 2MVA의 용량으로 하였으며 인버터의 입출력 단에 변압기를 설치하여 강압 및 승압 시켜 사용하였다.[2]

Eutrophic matters accumulated on the bottom of sea, river and lake cause red tide phenomenon in ocean and outbreak green algae in river and lake. Systems are developed to remove the noxious deposit. But the existing systems remove not only the eutrophic matters but also natural materials, sand, pebbles etc. that should remain at the bottom. This paper describes a new system that can safely, and economically take away the noxious deposit in underwater. High pressure water jet is used to induce vortices in the triangular suction section, and air-lifting pump to lift up the deposit. The mixture of the water and deposit is filtered through the drum filters. An under camera shows the under water situation along the moving direction of the system that is controlled by a remote operator. This remote controlled moving system obliterate the necessity of the diver that usually costs high. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the suggested system.
