Abstract

Because reducing atmospheric pollution is becoming a serious issue, studies are actively focusing on exhaust gas reduction. This study was conducted to determine the emission characteristics when applying an EGR system, the main approach used for NOx reduction, to an off-road mechanical diesel engine. For the application of the EGR system, the emission characteristics in consideration of the engine conditions were analyzed. The optimum EGR ratio for NOx emission reduction was determined by applying variable EGR conditions for each engine speed condition. Considering the above process, the emission characteristics of the modified EGR condition are compared with those of other conditions (non-EGR and existing EGR condition) in the NRTC mode. Consequently, NOx emission was reduced by around 42 compared with the non-EGR condition when using the modified EGR map.

최근 대기환경 개선에 대한 관심이 대두되면서 화석연료를 사용 하는 기관에 대한 배출가스 저감 연구가 활발하게 진행 되고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 저감 기술 중 NOx를 저감하기 위해 가장 많이 적용 되고 있는 EGR system을 Off-road 기계식 디젤엔진에 적용하였을 때 나타나는 배출가스 특성을 파악하기 위하여 진행되었다. EGR system 적용을 위하여 먼저 엔진의 운전영역에 대한 배출가스 특성을 파악하였고, 각각의 엔진회전수 조건에서 다양한 EGR 조건을 적용하여 NOx 저감을 위한 최적 EGR 율을 도출하였다. 이에 따라 수정된 EGR 맵 적용 조건의 엔진 배기 특성에 대해 NRTC 모드를 구현하여 EGR 미적용 조건 및 기존 맵과 비교 및 고찰하였으며, 그 결과로 EGR 미적용 조건 대비 NOx가 약 42% 저감됨을 보였다.
