Research and development of LP EGR system for the performance improvement and emission reduction on diesel engine is proceeding at a good pace. LP EGR system seems to be helpful method to further reduce$NO_x$ emissions while maintaining PM emissions at a low level because the boost pressure is unchanged while varying EGR rate. This study is experimentally conducted on a 2.0L common rail DI engine at the medium load condition (2000 rpm, BMEP 1.0 MPa, boost pressure 181.3 kPa) that difficult to use large amount of EGR gas because of deteriorations of performance and fuel consumption. And we investigated the characteristics of performance and fuel consumption while varying EGR systems. The overall results using LP EGR system equipped with ETC identified benefits on reduction of PM and improvement of fuel consumption and thermal efficiency while keep the $NO_x$ level compared to HP EGR and LP EGR with back pressure valve.

운송수단은 시대별로 요구되는 성능과 기술 수준 그리고 사용 가능한 에너지의 형태에 따라서 변화되어 왔습니다. 1900년대 초 전기자동차의 고질적인 제한적 운행 거리 문제는 내연기관의 발명으로 인해서 쉽게 해결되었다. 이 후 내연기관의 급속한 보급과 도심 과밀화로 인해서 공해 문제가 대두되었는데, 공해 문제 역시 배기 가스 환원 촉매의 발달과 자동차 전자 제어 기술의 발달로 대부분 해결된 상태이다. 최근에는 사용 가능한 화석에너지의 절대량 측면에서 하나의 커다란 시대적 전환점에 서게 되었다. 즉 아직도 사용 가능한 석유의 절대적인 양적 측면에서는 적당한 공급이 이루어지고 있으나 그 가격 면에서는 급격한 상승이 이어지고 있으며 이는 석유의 채굴이 점점 어려워지고 있음에 기인한다. 에너지의 현황을 객관적으로 살펴 보기 위해서 자동차에 있어서 절대적인 오일을 중심으로 그리고 통계자료 위주로 문제를 분석해 본다. 그리고 수소 연료 전지와 전기자동차 등 여러 가지 대체 에너지 운송기술이 많이 거론되고 있으나 널리 대중화 되고 있지 못하는 근본적인 문제점들이 어디에 있는지 분석해 본다. 이어서 소위 대체 에너지들이 자동차에 있어서 석유의 대체 수단으로 적합하지 않다면 과연 에너지를 가장 많이 쓰는 영역중의 하나인 운송 분야의 현재와 미래의 나아갈 방향은 무엇인지 그 해법을 생각해 본다. 석유를 대체할 에너지의 공급 방안이 충분하지 않다면 마지막으로 생각할 수 있는 것은 에너지의 소비 측면이다. 다행히도 그간 소비 측면의 개선 방안이 많이 소홀하게 취급되어져 왔다. 즉 에너지의 효율을 향상시킬 수 있는 여력이 충분하고도 많이 있다는 희망적인 소식이다. 이에 따라 에너지 효율 향상에 유용하게 사용할 수 있는 다양한 제어 기술을 소개한다. 에너지와 운송수단의 문제를 거시적이고 동시에 현실적으로 바라볼 수 있는 안목을 갖게 되기를 기대한다.

One of the most frightening aspects of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) is their ability to cause death in very small quantities without being visible to the public. The military authorities are making considerable effort to ensure the survivability of the combatants in the event of NBC(Nuclear, Biological and Chemical) contamination. Therefore, in this study, modules were developed for the measurement of the positive pressure and for the detection of the chemicals used for the control of the various shut-off valves used in an NBC shelter. In addition, a high performance gas tight shut-off valve was developed that can overcome the disadvantages associated with manual manufacturing, such as the occurrence of defective products and high manufacturing cost. By applying the positive pressure measurement and chemical detection modules, this valve was able to be used to control the facility. The developed gas-tight shut-off valve maintained airtight characteristics at a pressure loss of 28[Pa] at the prescribed wind velocity and an internal pressure of 30[kPa]. It is expected to be possible to control the gas-tight shut-off valve through the remote measurement of the positive pressure, thereby ensuring the foreign independence of import substitution and defense related technology in the future. In addition, by installing these valves in all of the intake ports or exhaust ports connected to the outside of the NBC shelter, it is possible to prevent the damage resulting from the rapid inflow of the storm pressure caused by conventional weapons and nuclear explosions, thereby protecting the people and equipment in the shelter.

A remote monitoring panel and control system was developed to control various valves and access control chambers, including gas shutoff valves used in CBR(Chemical, Biological and Radiological) facilities. The remote monitoring panel consisted of a main panel installed in the NBC (Nuclear, Biological and Chemical) control room and auxiliary panel installed in the clean room, and the size was divided into pure control and control including CCTV. This system can be monitored and controlled remotely according to the situation where an explosion door and gas barrier door can occur during war and during normal times. This system is divided into normal mode and war mode. In particular, it periodically senses the operation status of various valves, sensors, and filters in the CBR facilities to determine if each apparatus and equipment is in normal operation, and remotely alerts situation workers when repair or replacement is necessary. Damage due to the abnormal operation of each device in the situation can be prevented. This enables control of the blower, supply and exhaust damper, emergency generator, and coolant pump according to the state of shutoff valve and positive pressure valve in the occurrence of NBC, and prevents damage caused by abrupt inflow of conventional weapons and nuclear explosions.

Nowadays, automotive manufacturers have developed various technologies to improve fuel economy and reduce harmful emissions. The ultra-lean direct injection engine is a promising technology because it has the advantage of improving thermal efficiency through the deliberate control of fuel and ignition. This study aims to investigate the development of a spray-guided-type lean-burn LPG direct injection engine through the redesign of the combustion system. This engine uses a central-injection-type cylinder head in which the injector is installed adjacent to the spark plug. Fuel consumption and combustion stability were estimated depending on the ignition timing and injection timing at various air-fuel ratios. The optimal injection timing and ignition timing were based on the best fuel consumption and combustion stability.

The remanufacturing industry for automotive parts is a major issue which affects the environment protection and CO2 reduction throughout the world. Beside this, remanufacturing technologies of worn-out diesel engines have been developing to make as close to new as possible. In this study, the characteristics of the engine-power output and exhaust emissions of remanufactured diesel engine by hydrogen enrichment are evaluated by measuring the engine and vehicle test. Moreover, with worn-out diesel engine and first generation common-rail engine, we compared by testing their characteristics, resulting in the restoration of engine-power output more than 93%, as well as marvelously reduces the THC and NOx emission. At a guess, high pressure injection of diesel increases fuel atomization characteristics with excellence combustion efficiency, resulting in reduction of THC emission. Also, rapid cooling of EGR decreases combustion temperature, resulting in reduction of NOx emission. Consequently, these remanufacturing for diesel engine enables worn-out diesel engine to have restoration to the original state. Simultaneously achieved 2 goals called that CO2 emission reduction and protection of environment by remanufacturing engine.

In this study, the characteristics of exhaust gas as a function of the biodiesel mixing ratio were investigated. Diesel and waste oil were used for preparing mixed fuel, and the ratios of the mixed fuel were varied in the BD3~BD100 range. The injection pressures(${\Delta}p_{inj}$) was considered as an experimental variable and was set to 400 bar, 600 bar, 800 bar, 1000 bar, and 1200 bar. Furthermore, for quantitatively analyzing the characteristics of exhaust gas(NOx and Soot), the concepts of Pearson correlation coefficient and Spearman rank-order correlation coefficient based on statistics were introduced. Consequently, it was found that the correlation of the emission of NOx and Soot is linear, and the Pearson and Spearman coefficients are -0.732 and -0.724, respectively, under all analysis conditions. Especially, for the injection pressure of 800 bar, a simultaneous reduction in NOx and Soot emission is possible by controlling the biodiesel mixing ratio. This is because the correlation coefficients of NOx and Soot emissions were nearly 0, as the Pearson correlation coefficient was -0.089.

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs) are the most concerned toxic organic pollutants to human. Because of their extremely high toxicity and uncertain genotoxic potential, their determination in environmental and biological samples is of great interest. Municipal solid waste incinerator facilities have been reported as the major contributors of dioxins and furans to the environment, and their formation from combustion is a universal phenomenon, everywhere. In this study dioxins and furans were analyzed from the bottom ash produced during combustion in an municipal waste incinerator located in Seoul. The EPA method was modified for sample pretreatment: the soxhlet method was used for extraction and clean-up procedures were performed by using silica and basic alumina, excluding active-carbon. The extract was then analyzed by HRGC/HRMS. A general trend of increase in the amounts of 6∼7 chlorine-substituted dioxins and furans was observed. Total dioxins, furans and 2,3,7,8-TCDD were determined as 8.05 ng/g, 4.75 ng/g, and 6.93 pg/g, respectively.

The purpose of this study is investigated on the combustion and the thermal characteristics of porous media burners which are many using for a condensing boiler recently. In addition, results of this study will be used the fundamental information to decide the burner type which will be applied to the future development of EGR(Exhaust gas recirculation) condensing boiler. Two flat type of burners made of a the metal fiber(MF) and the ceramic(CM) were selected and examined, experimentally. As experimental results, the emitted CO concentration of CM was higher than that of MF. However, the NO concentration of MF was higher than that of CM. The efficiencies of both burners were increased as increasing the burner capacity. While the efficiency of MF was higher than that of CM, regardless of the burner capacity. In the experimental range, MF is appropriated for the burner material and 0.8 of equivalence ratio is an optimal operation condition, regarding of the proportional control, the thermal efficiency and emitted NO and CO concentration based on the regulations of KS B standard and EN 677 standard.

최근 자동차 산업에서는 차체의 무게를 감소시켜 연비향상과 배기가스의 양을 줄이려는 목적으로 고강도 강재의 차체 적용이 증가하고 있다. 또한 다른 여러 산업에서도 두께 감소를 통한 경량화를 위해 고강도 강재가 사용되고 있다. 고강도 강재를 자동차 차체에 적용하면서 용접성에 대한 새로운 문제가 제기 되고 있으며 그 중 자동차 생산라인에서 차체의 조립공정의 대부분을 차지하는 저항 점 용접에 대한 연구가 중요한 이슈가 되고 있다. 이러한 고강도 강재의 저항 점 용접의 문제점으로는 잦은 날림발생을 들 수 있다. 이는 강도의 증가에 따른 비저항 증가와 필요 가압력의 증가로 인해 입열에 의한 가압부의 소성변형이 쉽게 발생하기 때문이다. 이를 방지하기 위해 현재 다단가압, 다단전류제어 등의 기법들이 시도되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 저항 점 용접의 펄스전류 파형설계를 통해 고강도강 용접의 날림발생을 저감하고자 하였다. 실험소재로는 Al-Si 도금의 1.5GPa 급 강재를 사용하였고 실험조건으로는 기존 로브곡선에서 날림이 발생하는 용접조건을 사용하였다. On/Off 방식의 펄스전류를 이용하여 On/Off 시간에 따른 용접성을 평가하여 이를 기존 용접성과 비교하였다. 또한 펄스전류 파형에 따른 입열과 냉각의 변화와 날림발생에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.
