Most pressurized water reactors use Venturi flow meters to measure the feedwater flow rate. However, fouling phenomena, which allow corrosion products to accumulate and increase the differential pressure across the Venturi flow meter, can result in an overestimation of the flow rate. In this study, a soft-sensing model based on fuzzy support vector regression was developed to enable accurate on-line prediction of the feedwater flow rate. The available data was divided into two groups by fuzzy c means clustering in order to reduce the training time. The data for training the soft-sensing model was selected from each data group with the aid of a subtractive clustering scheme because informative data increases the learning effect. The proposed soft-sensing model was confirmed with the real plant data of Yonggwang Nuclear Power Plant Unit 3. The root mean square error and relative maximum error of the model were quite small. Hence, this model can be used to validate and monitor existing hardware feedwater flow meters.

The NOx removal performance of the SCR process depends on various factors such as catalytic factors (catalyst composition, shape, space velocity, etc.), temperature and flow rate distribution of the exhaust gas. Among them, the uniformity of the flow flowing into the catalyst bed plays the most important role. In this study, the flow characteristics in the SCR reactor in the design stage were simulated using a three-dimensional numerical analysis technique to confirm the uniformity of the airflow. Due to the limitation of the installation space, the shape of the inlet duct was compared with the two types of inlet duct shape because there were many curved sections of the inlet duct and the duct size margin was not large. The effect of inlet duct shape, guide vane or mixer installation, and venturi shape change on SCR reactor internal flow, airflow uniformity, and space utilization rate of ammonia concentration were studied. It was found that the uniformity of the airflow reaching the catalyst layer was greatly improved when an inlet duct with a shape that could suppress drift was applied and guide vanes were installed in the curved part of the inlet duct to properly distribute the process gas. In addition, the space utilization rate was greatly improved when the duct at the rear of the nozzle was applied as a venturi type rather than a mixer for uniform distribution of ammonia gas.

본 연구에서는 하나의 장치 내에서 "싸이클론-관성충돌-여과포 집진"이 동시에 이루어지는 멀티 집진기의 집진 효율을 극대화시키기 위한 설계 조건을 검토하였다. 먼저 싸이클론의 입구 형상에 대한 수치 해석 결과, 접선 유입식 입구에 가이드 베인을 추가로 설계한 경우 선회류의 회전수가 많고 강하게 형성되어 사이클론부에서 조대입자의 유선 이탈을 촉진시키는데 매우 효과적인 것으로 예측되었다. 그러나 사이클론의 하단부가 벤츄리 모양이기 때문에 약 4~5 m/s의 강한 하향 흐름이 호퍼 하단까지 지속되어 분진의 재비산 가능성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이에, 사이클론부 하단의 벤츄리를 제거하며 분진 재비산 문제는 해소 가능할 것으로 나타났다. 충돌 차단형 배플의 간격을 조정하여 통과유속을 빠르게 한 결과, 충돌 효과는 더욱 증가할 것으로 예측되었으나 탈리 분진이 간섭을 받을 수 있는 문제점이 예상되어 배플은 기본 설계안대로 유지하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 전산유체역학(CFD)을 이용하여 산업체에 널리 적용되고 있는 충격기류형 탈진시스템의 탈진 특성을 규명하고, 그 성능을 향상시키기 위해 탈진부 유니트(unit) 형상을 개조한 경우의 탈진 성능을 비교하였다. 탈진부 각 형상별로 탈진 공기량과 기류 분포, 유입속도 분포 등을 검토한 결과, 블로우 튜브에 노즐을 설치한 경우(Case 3)와 벤츄리에 이중 유입관을 설치한 경우(Case4, 5)가 현재 현장에서 널리 적용되고 있는 구조(Case 1)에 비해 탈진 공기량의 증폭 효과 및 기류 폭의 확장 현상이 우수한 것으로 예측되었다. 선정된 Case-5를 상용 백필터의 사양(직경 150 mm)에 적용하기 위해 벤츄리 제원을 결정한 결과, 내측 유입관의 직경 50 mm, 외측 유입관의 직경 90 mm의 제원을 적용하면 탈진 공기량을 최대로 유지할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The change of pressure drop according to the change in the inlet concentration, pulse interval, and injection distance of pulse air jet type bag filters, and the effect of venturi installation are as follows. The pressure drop with the range of 30 to $50mmH_2O$ varies according to the injection distance with 30, 50, 70, 90sec and the inlet concentration of venture built-in fabric filters. For the lower concentration of 0.5g/㎥ and 1g/㎥, the pressure $drop(\DeltaP)$ was stable 60 to 90minutes after operation. For the higher concentration of 3g/㎥, as $\DeltaP$ continues to go up, pulse interval should be set shorter than 30 seconds. The pressure drop with the injection distance of 1l0mm, when inlet dust concentration is 0.5g/㎥ or 1g/㎥, is 1.3 to 2 lower than with the injection distance of 50, 160, and 220mm, which means that the inflow amount of the secondary air by the instant acceleration is large. The injection distance of 2g/㎥ and 3g/㎥ has the similar pressure distribution. The higher inlet concentration is, the more important pulse interval is than injection distance. The pressure drop has proved to be larger when inlet concentration is lower and injection distance closer, on condition that the venturi is installed. The change in the pressure drop was smallest when injection distance was 50mm, followed by 220mm, 160mm, and 110mm.

백필터 집진기는 여러개 또는 수십개의 여과포를 구성하여 미세먼지를 정화시켜 깨끗한 공기를 대기에 방출시키는 일종의 공기청정기이다. 백필터 길이가 5m 이하인 경우 다이아프램 밸브에서 발생되는 압축공기를 벤추리를 통과시키는 것만으로도 백필터에 부착된 분진 및 흄을 효율적으로 탈진 할 수 있었다. 7m 이상의 롱백 탈진에 만족스러운 결과를 얻기 위해서는 더욱 효율이 높고 경제성 있는 인젝터 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 기존 국내외 인젝터의 경우 유지 보수시 다수의 블루튜브 해체작업과 인젝터와 블루튜브가 결합되어 중량증가로 인한 작업의 불편성 등 많은 문제를 내포하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 코안다 효과를 이용한 최적의 인젝터 개발을 위한 유동해석과 4차 산업의 지능형 자동화 탈진 기술이 접목되어, 기존 설비 대비 에너지 비용저감 및 필터 수명향상 등을 획기적으로 개선시키고자 하는 상용화 연구를 수행하였다.

Most of the nuclear power plants(NPPs) adopts pressure difference type flow meters such as venturi and orifice meters for the measurement of feedwater flow rates to calculate reactor thermal power. However, corrosion products in the feedwater deposits on the flow meter by fouling as operating time goes. These effects lead to severe errors in the flow indication and then determination of reactor thermal power. The averaging BDFT, which has developed by Yun et al., has a potentiality to minimize this problem thanks to its inherent measurement principle. Therefore, it is expected that the averaging BDFT can replace the venturi meter for the feedwater pipe of steam generator of NPPs. The present work compares the amplification factor, K, based on CFD calculation against the K obtained from experiments in order to confirm whether a commercial CFD code can be applicable to the evaluation of characteristic for the averaging BDFT. In addition to this, the simulations to take into account of fouling effect are also carried out by rough wall option. The results show that the averaging BDFT is a promising flow meter for the accurate measurement of flow rates in the fouling condition of the NPPs.

Mass flow amplifier, which is an aerodynamic device, makes air flow increased by ejecting small amount of compressed air with $Coand{\breve{a}}$ effect. In this study, the flow characteristics of a mass flow amplifier were studied with various flow conditions and geometrical configurations. In order to improve the performance of mass flow amplifier, various values of clearance, diffuser angle and the aspect ratio of induced flow inlet to outlet were considered as design parameter. Furthermore, four different pressure conditions of compressed air were also considered. Numerical study was performed using the commercial CFD code, ANSYS CFX 14.5 with shear stress transport(SST) turbulent model. The results of pressure and velocity distributions were graphically depicted with different geometrical configurations and operating conditions.
