본 연구에서는 정적연소실을 이용하여 차량용 대체연료로써 메란 및 수소첨가 메탄의 연소특성을 수소첨가율, 점화위치 및 점화방법에 따라 고찰하였다. 그 결과, 중심점화이고 수소를 첨가하지 많은 순수 메탄의 화염전파과정은 타원형으로 전파하나 수소첨가율이 증가함에 따라 화염면상에 매우 규칙적인 세포구조를 가진 불안정한 타원형화염으로 천이되었고 연소속도도 증가하였다. 또한, 벽면 및 0.5R 점화이고 수소를 첨가하지 않은 순수 메탄의 화염전파과정은 불안정한 타원형으로 전파하고 있었지만, 수소첨가율이 증가함에 따라 연소중기에 불안정한 타원형에서 평면형으로 천이 됐다가 연소말기에는 화염면 선단이 움푹 패인 매우 불규칙한 세포구조를 갖는 패기형으로 변화되었으며 연소속도도 증가하였다 한편, 세 가지 점화위치 모두에 있어서 MSCDI와 CDI사용에 따른 화염전파형태는 외견상 큰 차이는 없었지만, 동일시간에 MSCDI장치의 화염면적은 CDI의 화염면적보다 약간 더 크게 나타났다.

Adding hydrogen gas in natural gas leads to stable combustion in internal combustion engine and its performances rely on compression ratio. To analyze the effects of compression ratio and rate of hydrogen addition on the engine performance, the characteristics of overall engine performance including emission were investigated by using the medium duty natural gas fueled engine. As results, it was found that compression ratio occurred knock was nearby compression ratio, $\varepsilon$=14 for the case that hydrogen was enriched in the natural gas fueled engine. But slight knock was occurred at $\varepsilon$=14.7 in the case of neat natural gas. Also HC and $CO_2$ were reduced around 80% and 20% respectively when the rate of hydrogen addition was increased to 50% and compression ratio from $\varepsilon$=13 to $\varepsilon$=14.7.

A heavy duty hydrogen-natural gas fueled engine can obtain stable operation at ultra lean conditions and reduce emissions extremely. Reduction of $CO_2$ in its engine is one of the most benefit. In this study, rate of hydrogen addition($R_{dH2}$) and compression ratio($\varepsilon$) were investigated including performance of this engine. As results, it was found that phenomenon of pressure oscillation when increasing $R_{dH2}$ and $\varepsilon$, it means occurring knock. It consider that pressure oscillation was increased due to fast burning speed of hydrogen. Even if same compression ratio, pressure oscillation was remarkable increased according to increasing $R_{dH2}$. Therefore, limit compression ratio of knock occurring was reduced by increasing $R_{dH2}$.

A heavy duty hydrogen enriched CNG engine has the possibility to obtain stable operation at ultra lean condition and to reduce emission extremely. And it can also serve as a so called bridge technology between the current fossil fueled engine and the future hydrogen power system. The emission, torque and brake thermal efficiency characteristics of a heavy-duty hydrogen-CNG engine were investigated to determine the proper mixing rate of hydrogen and CNG. It was found that the proper mixing rates at ${\lambda}=1.4$ and ${\lambda}=1.6$ were around 20% and 30% for hydrogen addition rate respectively.

The present work is a continuation of our previous study to investigate the effects of parameters such as equivalence ratio, hydrogen supplement rate and initial pressure on combustion characteristics in a disk-shaped constant volume combustion chamber. The main results obtained from the study can be summarized as follows. The flames in near stoichiometric mixture of methane-air are propagated with a spherical shape, but in excess rich or lean mixtures are propagated with a elliptical shape. And, they are changed to an unstable elliptical shape flame with very regular cells by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate. Also, flame is sluggishly propagated at increased initial pressure in combustion chamber. Volume fraction of burned gas and flame radius as the combustion characteristics are increased by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate, especially at the combustion middle period, but then are slowly increased by increasing the initial pressure.

The purpose of study is obtaining low-emission and high-efficiency in LPi engine with hydrogen enrichment. The test engine was named variable compression ratio single cylinder engine (VACRE). The fuel supply system provides LPG/hydrogen mixtures based on same heating value. A varied sensors such as crank shaft position sensor (CPS) and hall sensor supplies spark timing data to ignition controller. Displacement of VACRE is $1858.2cm^3$. VACRE was runned 1400rpm with compression ratio 8. Spark timing was set MBT without knocking. Relative air-fuel ratio($\lambda$) of this work was varied between 0,8 and 1.5.

본 연구에서는 정적연소실을 이용하여 차량용 대체연료로써 메탄 및 수소첨가 메탄의 연소특성을 수소첨가율, 점화위치 및 점화방법에 따라 고찰하였다. 그 결과 연소효율, 최고연소압력 등과 같은 연소특성을 악화시키지 않고 희박 혼합기 조건하에서도 MSCDI 장치 사용에 의해 전 연소시간과 NO 농도를 저감시킬 수 있었다. 또한, 수소를 천연가스의 주 성분인 메탄에 혼합함에 따라 전 연소시간은 순수 메탄만을 사용할 때에 비해 단축되었으며, 이와 동시에 연소촉진율도 순수 메탄만을 사용하였을 때에 비해 상당히 향상되었다.

In the present study, investigations were carried out to obtain data on combustion characteristics of methane gas and hydrogen supplemented methane gas in a constant volume combustion chamber. The main results obtained from the study can be summarized as follows. The maximum combustion pressure increases as the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate increase, the total burning time is shorten by lowering the initial pressure and by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate. The maximum flame temperature and NO concentration increase by the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate increase. The flame propagation processes in near stoichiometric mixture are propagated with a spherical shape, but in excess rich or lean mixtures are propagated with a elliptical shape. And, they are changed an unstable elliptical shape flame with very regular cells by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate.

This study investigates the combustion characteristics of methane-hydrogen-air premixture in a constant volume combustion chamber. Primary factors of the combustion characteristics of methane- hydrogen-air premixture are the equivalence ratio and hydrogen supplement rate. In the case of $\phi$= 1.1, maximum combustion pressure and heat release rate have peaks, and they increase as the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate increase. The total burning time is also the shortest at the $\phi$= 1.1, it shorten by lowering the initial pressure and by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate. The maximum flame temperature is shown at the $\phi$= 1.0, and increasing the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate, it increases. The concentration of NO reveals the highest value at the $\phi$= 0.9, and it increases by increasing the initial pressure and hydrogen supplement rate. It is also found that the limit of lean inflammability of methane-hydrogen-air premixture is greatly widened by increasing the hydrogen supplement rate.
