This paper deals with precise analytical state equation modeling of a variable speed refrigeration system (VSRS) for optimum control in state space. The VSRS is described as multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) system, which has two controlled variables and two control inputs. First, the Navier-Stokes equation and mass flow rate were applied to each component of the basic refrigeration cycle to build a dynamic model. The dynamic model, represented by a differential equation, was transformed into the state equation formula. Next, a full-order state observer was built to estimate all of the state variables to compose an optimum control system. Then, an optimum controller was designed to minimize an evaluation function that has input energy and control error. Finally, simulations and experiments were conducted to verify the validity of the proposed modeling and designed optimum controller to regulate target temperature and superheat in a 1RT oil cooler system. The results show that the proposed method, state equation modeling and optimum control, is efficient to ensure optimal control performance of the VSRS.

본 연구에서는 Rankine 사이클을 이용한 해양 온도차 발전 시스템을 컴퓨터로 모사했고 작동유체를 변화시켜 가면서 그 성능을 비교하였다. 증발기와 응축기는 UA(총괄열전달계수$\times$전열면적)와 LMTD(대수평균온도차) 방법으로 모사하였으며 터빈과 펌프는 등엔트로피 효율로 모사하였다. 작동유체로는 R22, R290, R1270, R134a, R125, R143a, R32, R410A 그리고 암모니아 등을 사용하였다. 모사 결과 OTEC 발전 시스템의 효율은 작동유체에 상관없이 거의 일정한 것으로 드러났다. 한편 증발기 출구에서의 과열도와 응축기 출구에서의 과냉도는 시스템의 성능에 거의 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났지만 터빈의 효율과 열교환기의 크기는 시스템 성능에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 따뜻한 표층수와 차가운 심해수 사이의 온도차가 $20^{\circ}C$이상일 때 실제로 전기를 생산할 수 있다는 사실을 확인했다.

Typical temperature control methods of a cooler for machine tools are hot-gas bypass and compressor variable speed control. The hot-gas bypass system has been widely used to control the cooler temperature in many general industrial fields. On the contrary, the compressor variable speed control is focused on special fields such as aerospace and high precision machine tools which need high precision control. The variable speed control system usually has two control variables such as target temperature and superheat. In other words, the variable speed control system is basically multi-input multi-output(MIMO) system. In spite of MIMO system, the proportional integral derivative(PID) feedback control methodology that based on single-input single-output (SISO) system is generally used for designing the variable speed control system. Therefore, it is inevitable to describe transfer functions for dynamic behaviors of every controlled variables and decide the PID gains with tremendous iteration process. Moreover, the designed PID gains do not provide optimum system performances. To solve these problems, high performance controller design method based on a state space model is suggested in this paper. An optimum controller is designed to minimize both control errors and energy inputs. This method was more simple to describe dynamic behaviors and easier to design the cooler controller which is MIMO system.

A good fluidity of high strength Al-alloys is required to cast thin wall castings needed to reduce the weight of cast parts. The fluidity, measured as the length to which the metal flows in a standard channel, is affected by many factors, such as the pouring temperature, solidification type of the alloy, the channel thickness, melt head, mold materials and temperature, coating etc. Therefore the experimentally measured fluidity scatters very much and makes it difficult to estimate the fluidity of a melt with a few measurements. The effect of Ti content and grain refinement on the fluidity of high strength aluminum alloy was investigated with a test casting with 8 thin flow channels to reduce the scattering of the fluidity results. The fluidity of Al-4.8%Cu-0.6%Mn Al-6.2%Zn-1.6%Mg-1.0%Cu and well-known commercial aluminum alloy, A356 was tested. Initial content of Ti was varied from 0 to 0.2wt% and Al-5Ti-B master alloy was added for grain refinement. The flow length varied linearly with superheat. By adding Ti and Al-5Ti-B, the fluidity increased. The grain size decreased by adding grain refiner at the same time. The fluidity depended on the degree of grain refinement. The fluidity of the alloy solidifying in mushy type is improved by grain refinement, because grain refinement increases the solid fraction at the time of flow stoppage.

최근 안정적 전력수급을 위하여 화력발전에 대한 중요성이 더해 가고 있다. 화력발전설비 중 과열증기저감기는 보일러에서 생산된 과열증기가 발전터빈을 손상하지 않도록 적당한 과열도를 유지시키는 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 460mm 배관에 $530^{\circ}C$, 1.36 MPa의 증기가 흐를 때, 국내에서 개발된 가변오리피스노즐로 $150^{\circ}C$, 36.7 kg/s, 4.28 MPa의 냉각수를 분사하는 조건에서 성능해석을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 증기관내 냉각수 온도가 $446^{\circ}C$로 유지되고 분무된 액적 크기가 $50{\mu}m$ 이하임을 확인하였다.

Previous research has shown that the inclined condition has an impact on the natural circulation (natural circulation) mode operation of Floating Nuclear Power Plant (FNPP) mounted on the movable marine platform. Due to its compact structure, small volume, strong maneuverability, the Integral Pressurized Water Reactor (IPWR) is adopted as marine reactor in general. The OTSGs of IPWR are symmetrically arranged in the annular region between the reactor vessel and core support barrel in this paper. Therefore, many parallel natural circulation loops are built between the core and the OTSGs primary side when the main pump is stopped. and the inclined condition would lead to discrepancies of the natural circulation drive head among the OTSGs in different locations. In addition, the flow rate and temperature nonuniform distribution of the core caused by inclined condition are coupled with the thermal hydraulics parameters maldistribution caused by OTSG group operating mode on low power operation. By means of the RELAP5 codes were modified by adding module calculating the effect of inclined, heaving and rolling condition, the simulation model of IPWR in inclined condition was built. Using the models developed, the influences on natural circulation operation by inclined angle and OTSG position, the transitions between forced circulation (forced circulation) and natural circulation and the effect on natural circulation operation by different OTSG grouping situations in inclined condition were analyzed. It was observed that a larger inclined angle results the temperature of the core outlet is too high and the OTSG superheat steam is insufficient in natural circulation mode operation. In general, the inclined angle is smaller unless the hull is destroyed seriously or the platform overturn in the ocean. In consequence, the results indicated that the IPWR in the movable marine platform in natural circulation mode operation is safety. Selecting an appropriate average temperature setting value or operating the uplifted OTSG group individually is able to reduce the influence on natural circulation flow of IPWR by inclined condition.

본 연구에서는 비등 열유속 분배 모델의 예측 정확성을 검증하기 위하여 수직평판 자연대류 과냉 비등에서 기화, 급랭, 및 단상대류 열전달 기구에 대한 열유속 분배 특성을 실험적으로 조사하였다. 비등 열유속의 분배를 위해 적외선 열화상 기법과 전반사 가시화 기법을 동기화하여 비등 표면의 열유속 분포와 액상-기상 분포를 동시에 측정하여 분석하는 실험을 수행하였다. 실험은 대기압 조건에서 과냉도 $10^{\circ}C$를 가지는 물을 이용하여 수행하였으며, 벽면과열도 $12^{\circ}C$ 및 평균 열유속 $283kW/m^2$ 조건에 대한 실험 결과를 분석에 활용하였다. 실험을 통해 획득된 열유속 분배 결과는 상관식을 이용한 예측 결과와 큰 차이를 보였으며, 기포이탈직경과 기포이탈 시 주변의 과열액체층이 함께 뜯겨져 나가는 효과를 고려한 기포영향인자가 차이를 만드는 주요 원인들로 파악되었다.

본 연구는 HCCI 엔진의 운전조건을 고려한 혼합연료의 감압비등 분무제어방법을 평가하기 위하여 수행하였다. 2상영역이 존재하는 혼합연료는 고비점성분의 증발촉진과 함께 연료분무의 급격한 증발을 유도할 수 있는 감압비등분무를 이용함으로써 저온 및 저밀도장에서 혼합기형성과정의 제어가 가능하다. HCCI 엔진은 이러한 분위기조건에서 연료를 조기분사하기 때문에 착화성이 높은 경유와 휘발성이 높은 가솔린성분으로 함유한 혼합연료의 감압비등현상을 이용함으로써 액체연료의 분열, 미립화와 같은 물리적 제어 및 착화연소에 의한 화학적 제어를 실현할 수 있다. 본 연구는 혼합연료의 성분과 몰분율을 주요변수로 설정하여 정적용기 내에 분사된 연료분무의 감압비등현상을 슐리렌 화상 및 Mie 산란광을 촬영한 후, 화상처리과정을 통하여 이루어졌다. 그 결과로 감압비등현상은 비교적 저온 및 저밀도장에서 분무구조가 크게 변화함을 알 수 있었으며, 조기 연료분사시기에서 감압비등분무를 이용한 혼합기형성을 제어함으로써 HCCI 연소에 적용이 가능할 것으로 분석하였다.
