최근 대두되고 있는 에너지 문제와 더불어 대체에너지 개발 및 에너지의 이용효율을 높이려는 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 수소에너지는 비 탄소계 연료로서 그 중요성에 대한 인식이 높아지고 있으며, 다양한 분야에서 수소에너지를 이용하기 위한 노력이 이루어지고 있다. 수소는 재순환이 가능하고, 환경에 미치는 영향이 적기 때문에 미래형 에너지원으로 각광을 받고 있다. 수소이용 기술 중 연료 전지는 에너지 변환효율이 높고 유해 배출물이 생성되지 않아 차세대 발전시스템으로 유망하지만 비용과 기술적 제약으로 단기간에 상용화하기에는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 저비용, 고효율의 수소에너지를 이용 할 수 있는 시스템 개발이 요구되고 있다. 리니어동력/발전시스템은 저비용으로 제작이 가능하고 기존 기술의 인프라를 활용할 수 있는 장정과, 크랭크 기구가 없기 때문에 얻어지는 변환손실, 열손실을 최소화 할 수 있는 효율의 장점 때문에 고효율의 수소 이용 기관으로 평가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수소이용 통력시스템의 직선운동을 전기적인 에너지로 변환 할 수 있는 고효율의 리니어 발전시스템 개발을 위해 Prototype의 평판형 및 원통형의 리니어발전기를 제작했고 각각의 성능에 대한 평가와 엔진과 발전기의 연계운전 결과를 비교하여 시스템 전체에 대한 성능예측을 했으며 연계운전을 통해 출력된 발전기의 출력파형을 PCS로 변환하여 정현파의 AC 출력을 얻었다.

Hydrogen engine with homogeneous charged compression ignition can achieve high efficiency by high compression ratio and rapid chemical reaction rates spatially. However, it needs to expansion of the operation range with over-all load conditions which is very narrow due to extremely high pressure rise rate. The adoption of the lean boosting in a HCCI $H_2$ engine is expected to be effective in expansion of operation range since minimum compression ratio for spontaneous ignition is decreased by low temperature combustion and increased surround in-cylinder pressure. In order to grasp its possibility by using lean boosting in the HCCI $H_2$ engine, compression ratio required for spontaneous ignition, expansion degree of the operation range and over-all engine performance are experimentally analyzed with the boosting pressure and supply energy. As the results, it is found that minimum compression ratio for spontaneous ignition is down to the compression ratio(${\varepsilon}$=19) of conventional diesel engine due to decreased self-ignition temperature, and operation range is extended to 170% in term of the equivalence ratio and 12 times in term of the supply energy than that of naturally aspirated type. Though indicated thermal efficiency is decreased by reduced compression ratio, it is over at least 46%.

This paper describes the characteristics of n-Butane fuel for the homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine for a new concept. HCCI engines are being considered as a future alternative for diesel and gasoline engines. From the experimental observations, the effect of n-Butane fuel in HCCI engine on CO, HC and NOx are analysed. The objective of this paper is to clear the effects of equivalence ratio and inlet temperature with n-Butane on the HCCI. For this purpose, a 4-cylinder, compression ignition engine was converted into a HCCI engine This work has been run with n-butane fuel at a constant speed.

A model which calculates the hydrocarbon emissions from spark ignition engines is presented The model contains the formation of HC emissions due to both crevices around piston ring top land and oil films on the cylinder wall. The model also considers in-cylinder oxidation and exhaust port oxidation of desorbed HC from crevices and oil films after combustion process. The HC emissions model utilizes the results of SI engine cycle simulation. The model predicts well the trends of HC emissions from the engines when varying engine parameters.

Engine-out HC emissions were investigated during cold and hot start. The tests were conducted according to engine cooling temperatures which were controlled by simulated coolant temperatures of cold and hot start, on a 1.5L, 4-cylinder, 16 valve, multipoint-port-fuel-injection gasoline engine. Real time engine-out HC emissions were measured at a exhaust port and cylinder head using Fast Response Flame Ionization Detector(FRFID). Unburned hydrocarbons emitted at the cold coolant temperature were much higher than those of the hot coolant temperatures. And the main source of the high HC emission was confirmed as misfire at cold coolant temperature. In addition, the effect of intake valve timing on engine-out HC emissions was investigated. The results obtained indicate that optimized intake phasing provides the potential for start-up engine-out HC emissions reduction.

본 연구에서는 직접분사식 CNG기관의 희박한계를 보다 확장하여 고효율 및 저배기 공해를 실현시키고자 실린더 내에 고압의 천연가스를 직접분사함과 동시에 흡입과정 중 흡기관 내에 소량의 저압천연가스를 보조분사하는 경우의 희박한계 확장 및 제반특성에 대해 검토하였다. 그 결과, 흡기보조분사가 없을 경우 희박한계가 ${\lambda}$ = 1.4 까지였으나, 흡기보조분사율이 5~15% 정도에서는 희박한계가 ${\lambda}$ = 1.5 까지 확장되었다. 이는 흡기보조분사에 따른 혼합기의 혼합율 향상에 기인한 것으로 해석하였다. 연소기간은 줄어들었지만, 흡기보조분사의 효과는 주연소기간에서 조기연소기간보다 강하게 나타났다.

In order to reduce harmful substances such as particulates and nitric oxides emitted from diesel engine, man kinds of methodology like high pressure spray of diesel fuel oil, exhaust gas recirculation, emulsified fuel usage and dual fuelling have been studied. Dual fuelling of a diesel engine with hydrogen which is well-known as the clean fuel and has excellent combustibility is expected to be effective in reducing harmful substances from diesel engine. This experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of premixed hydrogen with intake air on the performance and particulate emission characteristics using a single cylinder, prechamber type diesel engine. As a result, it was clarified that a hydrogen-premixed diesel engine can be operated in the state of lower particulate emission and slightly aggravated fuel economy, compared with the conventional diesel engine.

To find performance and knock limit for compression ratio in hydrogen fueled engine, the variable compression ratio hydrogen fueled engine which was able to vary compression ratio during firing was manufactured and estimated. The characteristics of the variable compression ratio hydrogen fueled engine were as follows : 1) compression ratio variation by moving of cylinder head, 2) OHC which can be realized low S/V ratio, short flame propagation distance and unvariable configuration of combustion chamber for compression ratio variation, 3) direct injection of hydrogen gas to restrict back fire.

As an essential step for development of a duel injection hydrogen fueled engine which can obtain high thermal efficiency and power in overall operating range, performance and BFL(back fire limit) equivalance ratio in hydrogen fueled engine with external mixture are investigated. As the results, BFL equivalence ratio in hydrogen fueled engine with external mixture is approximately 0.7. It is deduced that controls of driving conditions are required in transient stage from external mixture type to inner injection type. And in order to increase thermal efficiency, it is also found that BFL equivalence ratio should be expanded as much as possible.

In this study, feasibility of expansion of BFL equivalence ratio are examined with change of injection location of hydrogen gas in intake pipe, coolant temperature, spark timing and amount of residual gas. As the results, BFL equivalence ratio is increased when injection location has some distance from intake valve. And it is decreased in accordance with increasing of coolant temperature and advance of spark timing. The amount of residual gas has little effect on BFL equivalence ratio.
