IMO에서는 선박으로부터 온실가스 감축을 위해 선박의 에너지효율 증진에 관한 논의를 진행하고 있다. 현재, 선박으로부터 발생되는 폐열을 이용한 ORC 발전 시스템을 적용함으로써 선박으로부터 높은 에너지 변환 효율을 기대할 수 있다. 이 기술은 물보다 더 낮은 온도 범위에서 증발하는 프레온 또는 탄화수소 계통의 유기 매체를 작동 유체로 사용한다. 이를 통해 상대적으로 낮은 저온에서 증기 (기체)를 생성 및 동력을 발생시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 유기 랭킨 사이클인 ORC 발전 시스템에서 냉매와 폐열 사이 열·유동해석 (Analysis of Heat flow)을 3D 시뮬레이션 기법을 이용하여 구조물의 내·외부에 흐르는 유체가 온도 변화, 속도 변화, 압력 변화 및 질량 변화를 통해서 구조물에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 분석하고자 하며, 동 연구는 이 기법을 이용하여 ORC 발전 시스템에서 냉매와 선박 주기 관의 배기가스로부터 일어나는 열교환기의 열전달을 해석하였다.

An electric steam boiler equipped with a condensate recovery system, which stores the condensate generated after using steam in steam washers, steam cookers, steam irons, and steam cleaners in a condensate tank and supplies compressed air to the condensate tank so that the condensate is recovered to the boiler by the pressure of the compressed air, was studied. In the results of this study, the heat energy balance between the quantity of the heat generated by the non-metallic surface heating element and the quantity of the heat absorbed by the water was good in a range of ±5%. In addition, the heat transfer rate increased in proportion to the electric power of the surface heating element heater, the waste heat energy was normally recovered by the recovery of the condensate of the steam boiler equipped with the high compression waste heat recovery system, and the recovery rate of the waste heat exhibited 23%.

This is aim to use and recycle the wasted heat from the dispose process of the incineration plant facility in Daegu. Furthermore, the saturated vapor is to be supplied for the Industrial Complex as energy resource. It is to receive the superheated steam that shows 250℃ temperature and 18kg/cm² steam pressure from the Boiler system of the incineration plant facility. This condition is not suitable for end-users’ specification of the manufacturing process. The Desuperheater is to be researched and developed for controlling high temperature and steam pressure. It is necessary to calculate condition of product vapor for establishing the steam network with water cooling and condensate system. The Heat Reclaiming Steam Arising System is to reduce the temperature to 220℃ and increase the pressure to 22kg/cm² at the final point of product supply line. It is expected Environmental and Economical effects with establishing optimum network for the use of waste heated vapor. Environmentally, it could reduce the Global Warming Potential, use fossil fuel and Green-house gases. Economically, it will bring down the production cost of end-users by using the wasted heated vapor.
