Numerous researches have been conducted to investigate an optimal EGR rate which minimizes emission levels of NOx without increasing PM or loosing an engine power. In this research, the interrelation among engine parameters were intensively investigated and evaluated quantitatively, and proposed some directions in design of a heavy diesel engine by applying EGR and Oxygen-enriched system.

경유엔진은 가솔린엔진에 비해 연소특성상 연료소비효율이 우수하여 온실가스인 $CO_2$ 배출이 적은 반면 대기 및 인체위해성이 높은 NOx와 입자상물질(PM)의 배출이 많아 대기저감을 위한 연료의 고압분사, 전자제어식 EGR기술등 엔진개량기술과 매연여과장치, De-NOx등 후처리기술 그리고 대체연료사용 기술등 다양한 저감대책이 전세계적으로 강구되고 있다. 특히 경유엔진에서 배출되는 오염물질로 인한 대기오염영향은 점차 증가하고 있어 대체연료사용 및 배출허용기준강화둥 우리 실정에 적합한 효율적인 대기저감대책이 강구되어야 할 것이다.

Recently, the nano-PM's number concentration emitted by diesel internal combustion engine has focused on attention because this particulate matters are suspected being hazardous of human health. In this study, The nano-PM mass and size of diesel passenger vehicles were measured on chassis dynamometer test bench. The particulate matters(PM) emissions of these vehicles were investigated by number concentration too. A condensation particle counter(CPC) system was applied to measure the particle number and size concentration of diesel exhaust particles at the end of dilution tunnel along the NEDC(ECE15+EUDC) and CVS-75 vehicle test mode. As the research result, the characteristic of vehicle test mode on the diesel nano-particle number and size distribution was investigated in this study.

The main purpose of this study is to analyze and compare the nano-particle emission characteristics by 3-different biodiesel blending rates in a CI engine. Nano-particle number density emitted from various operating conditions of compression ignition engine can be investigated by using the PPS (Pegasor Particle Sensor) system. Namely, some particle charged through the corona discharge in real-time can be measured by PPS system. Under the steady state operation of the 2.0L CRDi diesel engine with different operating condition and biodiesel blending rates, the nano-particle number density was analyzed at the downstream position of DOC system. As this research result, more engine load speed and higher the concentration of biodiesel blending rate showed that the nano-particle number density decreases. Also we found that DOC system for clean diesel engine is effectively useful instrument to reduce diesel particulate matter as resource of nano-particle generation.

The deactivated catalyzed diesel particulate filter-trap (DPF) was remanufactured by ultrasonic wave treatment with various prepared solutions, followed by active component re-impregnation, and the emission control performance and surface properties of remanufactured DPF were studied at various remanufacturing conditions. The proper ultrasonic wave cleaning time at various prepared solutions and optimal re-impregnation amounts of active component for the best emission control performance of DPF were investigated and its performance tests were also carried out with various temperatures for the conversions of CO, THC (total hydrocarbon) and PM (particulate matter) by catalytic reaction test unit using bypass gas from the diesel engine dynamo system. It was found that the emission control performance of DPF remanufactured with the high-temperature air washing, ultrasonic wave cleaning at acid/base solutions and active component re-impregnation method was recovered to 95% level of its activity compared to that of the fresh DPF, which was caused by removing the deactivating materials from the surface of the DPF, through the analyses of performance test and their surface characterization by Optical microscope, EDX, ICP, TGA, and porosimeter.

Recently emission regulation on diesel vehicles is getting stringent and research on aftertreatment technology such as DPF and DOC has been carried out actively. Even though PM(Particulate matters) reduction efficiency in DOC is relatively low but the structure is simpler and very effective in the reduction of gas materials and unregulated materials. Therefore it has been applied to smaller diesel vehicles. The aims of this research is to investigate the emission reduction characteristics of DOC; DOC performance of regulated and unregulated material emission reduction. It results a Pt based catalyst demonstrated higher emission reduction efficiency than a Pt-V based catalyst in CVS-75 mode, and also the reduction efficiency of unidentified material was excellent.

We measured black carbon concentration in rural area to understand the characteristic of atmospheric aerosol by comparing the black carbon concentration and meteorological factors such as PM10 concentration, relative humidity, temperature and wind velocity. A MAAP (Multi Angle Absorption Photometer) which is one of filter based equipments was used to measure black carbon concentration. Black carbon concentration was measured to be high from April to May and low from June to September. Black carbon concentration was proportional to PM10 concentration. Black carbon concentration was correlated to relative humidity. Black carbon concentration was inversely proportional to wind velocity and temperature. Finally, we suggest that the volume fraction of black carbon in the atmosphere can be estimated from the size, number concentration and absorption coefficient measured using the MAAP.

The characteristics of particulate matters (PM) from an exhaust gas for conventional and low temperature diesel combustion (LTC) in a compression ignition engine was experimentally investigated by the elemental, thermogravimetric analysis. Morphology of PM was also studied by the transmission electron microscopy. PM for LTC shows that it contains more volatile hydrocarbons, which can be easily evaporated than conventional regime. PM for LTC is comprised of smaller primary particles.

In order to collect the engine performance data and determine optimum engine conditions, engine performance test based on interface unit were tested This paper was carried out that engine' performance was developed using interface unit between personal computer and diesel engine. The results of the study are summarized as follows: Interface unit was developed. By using PAL, simulation was carried in order to logic's inspection. From this tea NO$_{x}$ were decreased, otherwise PM were increased. By using EGR system PM were increased by twice in the high load ranges, it was not seen to come into effect in the low load ranges. This system was tested D-l3 mode, the results were decreased more than 50% in the NO$_{x}$ emission.

The post injection effect to enhance aftertreatment devices' performance is essential to meet future stringent emission standards by controlling exhaust gas temperature and emission pollutants. The test has been made with commercial common rail diesel engine by post injection manipulation, to optimize exhaust gas temperature while guarantee low fuel penalty. The optimization was done at 1500, 2000 and 2500[rpm] for 2, 4[bar] condition which show low exhaust gas temperature. The main purpose of this test is dedicated to understand mechanism of exhaust gas temperature rise while optimizing
