초록

본 연구에서는 13A 가스기기의 새 가스호환성 판정법을 개발하고자 하였다. 호환성 판정법 개발의 원칙은 세 가지로서, 1) 웨버지수 외에 가스조성 영향을 대표할 수 있는 인자의 도출, 2) 우리나라 가정과 업소에 보급된 모든 종류의 제작사별 가스기기(예혼합 가스기기 포함) 시험, 3) 가능한 한 간단한 판정법 개발이다. 이러한 원칙하에 30대의 대표성 있는 가스기기에 대하여 가스호환성 실험을 하였고 그 결과 웨버지수-비중 형식의 간단한 2차원 판정법(도표)을 개발하였다. 본 호환성 판정법은, 기존 호환성 판정법과 달리 화염안정 영역이 좁은 예혼합 가스기기를 포함하며, 이로 인해 기존 호환성 판정법보다 가스호환성 영역이 좁은 것으로 나타났다.

The objective of this study was to develop a new method for estimating gas interchangeability for 13A gas appliances. The three basic principles for the development of this method are as follows: 1) to derive the secondary interchangeability factor that represents the effect of gas composition, in addition to the major interchangeability factor, i.e., Wobbe index; 2) to test every type of and each maker's domestic gas appliances that are widely used in our country, particularly including premixed gas appliances; and 3) to develop a simple estimation method. On the basis of these principles, thirty representative gas appliances were tested, and as a result, a simple two-dimensional interchangeability diagram consisting of Wobbe index and relative density was developed. Unlike conventional methods for estimating interchangeability, this method can be applied to premixed gas appliances, which have a narrow stable flame range, and the interchangeability range of this method then becomes narrower than that of the conventional methods.
