Abstract

This paper investigated the combustion and exhaust gas characteristics of gasoline direct injection engines for various cooling water temperature. The engine-out nanoparticle emission number and size distribution were measured by a DMS-500 equipped upstream of the catalyst. A CLD-400 and an HFR-400 were equipped at the exhaust port to analyze the cyclic NOx and total hydrocarbon emission characteristics. The results showed that the nanoparticle emission number greatly increased at low coolant temperatures and that the exhaust mainly contained particulate matter of 5.10 nm. THC also increased under low temperature conditions because of fuel film on the combustion chamber. NOx emissions decreased under high temperature conditions because of the increase in internal exhaust gas recirculation. In conclusion, an engine management system control strategy for driving coolant temperature up rapidly is needed to reduce not only THC and NOx but also nanoparticle emissions.

본 논문에서는 GDI 엔진의 냉각수 온도에 따른 연소 및 배출가스 특성을 연구하였다. 엔진에서 나오는 입자상 물질의 수와 크기 분포는 DMS-500 장비로 측정하였다. 배기포트 에 장착된 CLD-400 과 HFR-400 을 통해 NOx 및 THC 의 배출 특성을 연소주기 별로 측정하였다. 결과적으로 낮은 냉각수온에서 5~10 nm 의 입자상 물질이 크게 증가하는 특성을 보였다. THC 또한 낮은 냉각수온에서 증가하는 특성을 보였는데 이는 연소실 내 연료의 액막현상 때문이다. 그리고 NOx 는 높은 냉각수온에서 감소하는 특성을 보였는데 이는 내부 EGR 이 증가하기 때문이다. 결론적으로 THC 와 NOx 그리고 입자상 물질의 배출을 줄이기 위해서는 냉각수온을 빠르게 올리는 EMS 변수 설정 필요하다.
