The valve applied air pressure type of high pressure packing is developed to prolong the lifetime and to enhance the airtight. The effective valve developed enables to get remove the remaining pressure through the part of valve in handle so that a separate valve to drain is no need. The character of valve developed in this experiment is high packing of valve through special form and having drain hole in stem that enables a drainage regardless the status of vale is closed or opened.

This study investigated the probability of possible accident through qualitative and quantitative analysis of the pressure safety valve types installed in facilities using high pressure gas to compare the installation domestic and foreign pressure safety valve standards sought the safety characteristics and safety improvement direction accordingly. The three types are the case where the shut-off valve is not installed at the front of the PSV (Case A), If a shut-off valve is installed at the front of the PSV for inspection (Case B) and If a shut-off valve is installed in front of PSV (C.S.O), PSV is installed in parallel (Case C). Three types of cases were compared with FTA and HAZOP. The results of study of the possible accidents due to over-pressure safety valve installation type, used in a high-pressure gas facilities was shows in the following order Case B > Case A > Case C. The results of analysis through FTA was in order to protect the reservoir for the possible occurring of accident the safety valve installation is depend on its type. In the FTA analysis, defects in the device itself which attached to the storage tank as a substitute for analysis of the probability of operator mistakes was Case B with as high as $2.01{\times}10^{-6}$. Depending on the type of installation analysis of Case B in order to ensure safety is prohibited to install shut-off valve and believes that mandatory regulations are needed. Rationally installing of pressure safety valve in the high pressure using facilities will be expected to improve the industrial safety from severe accidents such as high-pressure gas fire explosion.

Dynamic flow characteristics of a solenoid valve are affected by pressure difference in inlet and outlet of orifice, gas temperature, and supply voltage of a coil. In this paper, the dynamic flow characteristics for deviations of various conditions are studied Static and dynamic flow for variation on-time of a solenoid valve open signal are measured in basic bench test. The solenoid valve is applied to a compressed natural gas(CNG) engine test for validation of flow control performance. The experimental results show that flow of high pressure gas can controlled precisely by using a solenoid valve.

Ball poppet valve type high pressure hydrogen injection valve actuated by solenoid has been developed for the feasibility of practical use of hydrogen fueled engine with direct injection and the precise control of fuel injection ratio in hydrogen fueled engine with dual injection. The gas-tightness of ball poppet injection valve is improved by the introduction of ball-shaped valve face, valve end typed spherical pair, and valve stem with rotating blade. Ball poppet valve is mainly closed by differential pressure due to the area difference between valve fillet and pressure piston. So, it can be operated by solenoid actuator with small driving force. From the evaluation of ball poppet injection valve, it was found that the gastightness and controlment of this injection valve are better than those of injection valve had been developed before.

Growing concerns about environmental pollution have led to an increase in the demand for compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles in recent years. CNG vehicles are equipped with a cylinder valve installed in a high-pressure vessel to control the CNG flow. The cylinder valve must meet high quality safety standards because the pressure vessel stores high-pressure CNG. Therefore, safety evaluation of the cylinder valve is necessary to ensure the safety of CNG vehicles. In this study, fluid-structure interaction analysis for the structural integrity of the cylinder valve were conducted using a commercial finite element analysis code(ANSYS WORKBENCH V14). The CFD analysis was performed using a steady-state technique according to the inlet and outlet pressures in order to predict the pressure distribution. Structural analysis was performed by a static structure technique at the maximum working pressure to evaluate the structural integrity of the cylinder valve. From the results, the safety factor of the valve component is between 1.57 and 21.5.

In CNG (Compressed natural gas) fuel supply line, whose main components are receptacle and check valve are used to charge high pressure gas to the tank of NGV (Natural gas vehicle). It is reported that the seal is separated occasionally form valve seat and results in blockage of gas flow. In this paper, MARC is used to investigate the reasons of seal separation and suggest design improvements. The static gas pressure distributions acting on the seal which calculated using FLUENT are considered to investigate accurate seal deformation behaviors. Deformed seal shapes are obtained for various amounts of seal interference and its location, gas pressure distributions and Young's modulus of the rubber used. The results showed that the reasons of seal separation problems are verified theoretically, and suggested examples of new design method. Therefore the present numerical methods can be applied in designing and performance analysis of rubber seals adopted in high pressure fluid machineries.

A complex valve dynamic analysis has been performed with a high Pressure reciprocating gas compressor. Valve dynamic equations, which take into account the flow continuity and cylinder pressure fluctuation, have been derived. Flow coefficients of valves has been analyzed, using CFD models. Results have shown that both of the suction and discharge values behave favorably without any fluttering motions.

The high-pressure hydrogen valve is intended to supply hydrogen charged at high pressure in the hydrogen tank to the fuel cell stack, which decompresses high-pressure hydrogen gas to low pressure and primarily limits the excessive flow. It consists of a pilot valve, a main valve, and a excessive flow valve to operate in a wide pressure range from 2 to 70 MPa of charging pressure. The opening characteristics of the valve were confirmed by computation fluid dynamics applying the moving grid technique. The behavior of the valve was predicted by predicting the force acting on the valve over time. In addition, the difference in behavior according to supply pressure was compared.

Residual gas fraction in an engine cylinder affects engine performance, efficiency and emission characteristics. With high residual gas fractions, a flame speed and maximum combustion temperature are decreased and these are deeply related with combustion stability especially at idle and NOx emission at relatively high engine load. In this work, the residual gas fraction was calculated by an engine simulation code, which was validated by the experimental data (cylinder pressure and emissions) obtained from 4-cyliner spark ignition engine. A comparison between experimental and computational calculation results was made. The residual gas is generated mostly at low engine speed by the larger pressure difference between the intake and exhaust port. As the valve overlap duration was increased, the amount of residual gas in the cylinder, the amount of HC emission in the exhaust gas and the variation of power output increased.

The high pressure cryogenic ball valve is used to transfer the liquefied natural gas which temperature is $-196^{\circ}C$, supplied pressure is $168kgf/cm^2$. In the present work, the temperature distribution and thermal deformation is calculated numerically. The CAR and CFD methods are useful to predict the thermal matter and the inner flow field of high pressure cryogenic ball valve. For this reason, to optimum design of the cryogenic ball valve, the theological behavior of the supplied LNG in a cryogenic valve has been studied. The governing equations are discredited and solved numerically by the finite-volume method and finite-element method. In this study, we designed the high pressure cryogenic ball valve that accomplishes zero leakage by elastic seal at normal temperature and metal seal at high temperature.
