Abstract

In the study, the effect of low boiling point oxygenates in high viscous fuels on the exhaust emissions has been investigated for a single cylinder DI diesel engine. It was tested to estimated change of engine performance and exhaust emission characteristics for the base fuels and low boiling point oxygenates blended fuel which have six kinds of fuels and various mixed rates. The results of the study may be con eluded as follows By blending of various low boiling point oxygenated agents to lower grade fuels, significant improvements were simultaneously obtained in smoke, CO, PM, SOF and BSEC. Especially, these trends were remarkably obtained by retarding injection timing, by decreasing boiling point and increasing blending contents of additives in case of oxygenated agents rather than non-oxygenated agents. Also, it was revealed that when 20 vol.% DMM added to high viscosity fuels and injection timing was retarded, Nox-smoke trade off relationship was much better than that of ordinary diesel fuel. Thus, lower grade fuels with high viscosity could be expected to be used efficiently and cleanly in diesel operation by blending low boiling point oxygenates.

본 연구에서는 고점도 저질유를 연료로 사용하는 디젤기관에 있어서 연료에 저비점 함산소물질을 혼합하였을 때의 배기배출물 특성변화에 대해 조사하였다. 실험은 6종류의 혼합물을 여러 혼합비로 베이스 연료에 첨가하여 기관 성능과 배기배출물 특성 변화에 대해 실시하였으며, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 저질유로의 저비점물질 흔합에 의해 매연 CO, PM, SOF 및 열소비율이 대폭적으로 개선되었다. 이러한 경향은 분사시기 지연시에 현저하였으며, 혼합물질의 비점이 낮을 수록 혼합비율이 클수록 또한 비함산소 물질보다는 함산소물질에 있어서 더 현저하였다. 또한, 저질유에 함산소물질 DMM을 20 vo1.% 흔합하고 연료분사시기를 지연시킬 경우에는 통상의 경유 운전을 상회하는 NOx-매연 트레이드 오프 관계가 얻어졌다. 따라서, 고점도의 저질유연료를 사용하는 디젤운전에 있어서도 저비점 함산소물질의 혼합에 의해 효과적이고 청정하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
