Design of the Capacitor Discharge Ignition System

용량방전점화장치의 설계

An analytical and experimental design procedure is described for the Capacitor Discharge Ignition (CDI) System with a view to fuel saving ann reduction of gas exhaustion and maintenance need. Specifically, the input and output voltage and current of a given ignition coil were calculated by using a simplified circuit model for the discharging system. The results were compared with the experimental results, from which ratings of the charging capacitor, the SCR and the diodes and the required output valtage of the DC.DC converter were determined so as to satisfy the optimum ignition conditions. Protection circuits for excessive dv/dt and di/dt for the SCR were also analyzed and the results were compared with the observed results, which facilitate selection of the SCR and design of the protection circuit and the trigger circuit. Also, design of the DC.DC converter was simplified based on the analysis and experimental results of the behavior of the converter, An experimental, yet practical CDI system was built, which showed satisfactory performance in the laboratory and field tests. The results were also reported.

개소린 엔진 자동차의 연료절차, 공해감소, 보수경감을 목적으로 용량방전점화장치(CDI)를 해석적 및 실험적으로 설계하는 과정을 기술하였다. 특히 방전시스템에 대한 간단한 모델을 사용함으로써 점화코일의 입출력전압, 전류를 계산하였다. 그 결과 실험치와 비교하였으며 이로 부터 최적점화조건을 만족하기 위한 방전용량, SCR 및 다이오드의 정격과 DC-DC 콘버터의 소요출력전압을 결정하였다. 또 과도한 dv/dt 및 di/dt에 대한 SCR의 보호회로를 해석하고 그 결과를 관측된 결과를 관측된 결과와 비교하였는데 이로써 SCR선택과 보호회로 및 트리거 회로 설계가 용이하게 된다. 더우기 DC-DC콘버터의 거동에 대한 실험적 결과를 해석하므로써 콘버터 설계를 간이화하였다. 실용적인 CDI장치를 시작하였으며 이것은 실험실 및 노상 시험에서 만족할만한 성능을 나타냈다. 그 시험결과도 아울러 보고한다.
