최근에 연비향상을 위해 다양한 기술들이 개발 중에 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 배기열 재순환장치의 열교환 성능을 평가한 후 최적 성능의 모델을 제안하는데 있다. 이 장치는 버려지는 배기열을 이용하여 가능한 한 빠르게 엔진 냉각수를 웜업 시키도록 설계하였다. 이 목적을 달성하기 위하여 CFD를 이용하여 냉각수의 흐름 방향과 냉각수의 유입 유출 위치에 따른 열유동 특성을 분석하고, 열교환 효율을 상승시키기 위한 방법을 제시하였다. 그 결과 냉각수 유량이 적고, 배기가스와 냉각수의 유로를 각각 구성하여 배기가스의 열이 직접적으로 냉각수에 영향을 미치는 구조가 가장 열교환 효율이 좋은 것으로 나타났다.

Robustness and controllability are the key factors in internal combustion engine commercialization. This study focuses on the combustion strategy to commercialize the low temperature diesel combustion technology. Various LTC combustion methods such as PPCI, MK and highly diluted mixing controlled LTC were conducted on 6.0L heavy duty diesel engine. To find the best feasible LTC strategy, emission level, fuel consumption and combustion safety during the combustion mode change were considered. Experiments were carried out under various engine operating conditions; engine speed & load, EGR level, injection timing. Finally, this study suggests realizable LTC combustion strategy; moderate EGR level and slight early injection are possible to considerably lower PM, NOx emission and expand LTC operating range up to 50% load without CO and HC emission.

LTC(Low Temperature Combustion) technology has been studied to see feasibility of the combustion technology applied to heavy-duty engines on the laboratory scale. This study succeeded to develop a demo engine including realized low temperature combustion under partial load conditions. To find the best feasible LTC strategy, various LTC combustion methods such as PPCI, MK and highly diluted mixing controlled LTC were conducted on 6.0L heavy duty diesel engine. Air management system was re-designed to make these combustion scheme stable and the re-designed air system helped expand LTC operating range. This study finally revealed plausible LTC concept to maximize benefit of the alternative combustion technology while overcoming handicaps of the LTC strategy.

Split injection has been known to reduce total hydrocarbon (THC) emission level and increase engine performance under certain operating conditions 1, 2). Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) is a common technique adopted for nirtric oxides (NOx) reduction by the dilution of intake air, despite a sacrifice of simultaneous increase in THC and decrease in engine performance3). Thus, using split injection with adequate EGR may improve the emission level of UBHC, NOx and the engine performance compared to that of single-injection with or without EGR cases. The purpose of this study is to investigate the engine performance and emission levels at various engine operating conditions and injection methods when it is applied with EGR. The characteristics of single-injection and split-injection were investigated with various engine loads and EGR rates. The engine speed is changed from 800rpm to 1200rpm to investigate how the combustion characteristics are changing with increasing engine speed.

Flue gas recirculation (FGR) is a method used to control oxides of nitrogen ($NO_x$) in combustion system. The recirculated flue gases resulted in slow reaction and low flame temperatures, which in turn resulted in decreased thermal NO production. Recently, it has been demonstrated that introducing the recirculated flue gas in the fuel stream, that is, the fuel induced recirculation (FIR), resulted in a much greater reduction in $NO_x$ per unit mass of recirculated gas, as compared to introducing the flue gases in air. In the present study, the effect on $NO_x$ reduction in turbulent swirl flame in laboratory scale using FGR/FIR methods through the dilution using $N_2$ and $CO_2$. Results. show the $CO_2$ dilution is more effective $NO_x$ reduction methods because of large temperature drop due to the larger specific heat $CO_2$ compared to $N_2$. FIR is more effective to reduce $NO_x$ emission than FGR when the same recirculation ratio of dilution gas.

Homogeneous charge compression ignition(HCCI) combustion is an advanced technique for reducing the hazardous nitrogen oxide(NOx) and particulate matter(PM) in a diesel engine. NOx could be reduced by achieving lean homogeneous mixture resulting in combustion temperature. PM could be also reduced by eliminating fuel-rich zones which exist in conventional diesel combustion. However previous researches have reported that power-output of HCCI engine is limited by the high intensive knock and misfiring. In an attempt to extend the upper load limit for HCCI operation, supercharging in combination with Exhaust Gas Recirculation(EGR) has been applied: supercharging to increase the power density and EGR to control the combustion phase. The test was performed in a single cylinder engine operated at 1200 rpm. Boost pressures of 1.1 and 1.2 bar were applied. High EGR rates up to 45% were supplied. Most of fuel was injected at early timing to make homogeneous mixture. Small amount of fuel injection was followed near TDC to assist ignition. Results showed increasing boost pressure resulted in much higher power-output. Optimal EGR rate influenced by longer ignition delay and charge dilution simultaneously was observed.

본 연구는 대체연료 개발 및 국제환경규제에 대응하기 위하여, 노말데케인과 에탄올 혼합연료의 조성 및 온도 변화가 자착화 특성에 미치는 영향을 수치적으로 해석하였다. 해석용 프로그램으로는 CHEMKIN-PRO를 사용하였고, 반응모델은 LLNL모델을 이용하였다. 수치해석 결과를 통해 저온 연소 반응이 일어나는 1000K 이하에서는 에탄올의 몰 비율이 증가함에 따라 점화지연 시간이 증가하는 현상을 확인하였다. 에탄올의 높은 옥탄가로 인해 에탄올의 높은 비율은 점화를 일으키는 OH라디칼의 농도 증가를 지연시키기 때문이다. 배기가스 재순환을 적용하기 위해 혼합연료에 산소농도를 변화하여 수치해석을 하였다. 산소농도가 감소함에 따라 전체 점화지연시간은 증가하게 되고, 이는 질소가스가 연소실 내에 열부하로 작용하기 때문이다.

It is a present situation that the control on automobile emission is getting more restrictive and also the regulations for emission are changing greatly up to level of those advanced foreign countries. Specially, it has been many years that exhaust gases from gasoline automobile rather than from diesel is the major object concerned by Korea and other countries, and it is strongly required on the reduction techniques on harmful NOx and PM among those compositions. Thus, this research focused on the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and the target for this research is heavy-duty turbo-diesel engine with Cooled EGR. Furthermore, this research has been made efforts to accomplish the regulation on emission for heavy duty diesel engine.

디젤 엔진은 출력 및 연료소비율이 우수하여 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 디젤엔진은 가솔린엔진에 비하여 배출가스 저감 기술 등에서 아직 해결해야할 문제점들이 많고, 대기오염의 주범이다. 디젤엔진에 있어 배기가스 재순환(EGR; Exhaust Gas Recirculation) 기술은 여러 촉매 기술에 비해 질소산화물(NOx) 배출 저감을 위한 가장 효과적인 기술이며 또한 경제성, 적용 가능성 측면에서도 많은 장점을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 EGR 시스템을 장착한 디젤 엔진을 대상으로 EGR이 디젤기관의 출력 성능 및 배기특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였고, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. EGR율이 증가함에 따라 IHP 및 BHP는 감소하며, 순수EGR에 의한 영향은 엔진회전수에 따라 차이는 있지만, 순수 EGR에 의한 BHP는 저속 운전에서는 약 9%, 고속운전에서는 3.5% 정도 감소하였다. 그리고 NOx는 EGR율이 증가함에 따라 감소하고, 엔진회전수 증가할수록 증가한다. 또한 매연(smoke)은 EGR율이 증가함에 따라서 증가하고, 엔진회전수가 증가할수록 감소한다. EGR율에 따라 NOx와 매연 배출을 동시에 최소로 할 수 있는 최적의 운전 상태가 존재하며, EGR율이 증가할 수록 NOx 및 매연을 위한 최적운전 속도는 증가한다.
