Infrared signal and exhaust gas temperature distribution with bypass ratio were measured using a micro turbojet engine. Micro turbojet engine was modified to simulate the turbofan engine behaviour. Core flow was simulated using the jet flow of the micro turbojet engine, and high-pressure air was supplied to its external duct to simulate bypass flow. The effects of bypass ratios (0.5, 1.0, and 1.4) were examined. The experimental results indicate that the infrared signal decreases as the bypass ratio increases. And also gas temperature decreases with bypass ratios. Additionally, Schlieren visualization of the exhaust gas plume was conducted. From the exhaust gas temperature distribution and Schlieren images, the structure of jet plume with various bypass ratios was understood.

자동차는 다양한 형상과 기능을 가진 부품소재의 집합체라 할 수 있다. 자동차의 고출력화에 의한 연비향상과 각국의 환경규제 강화 요건을 충족시키기 위해 자동차 엔진의 작동온도와 이에 따른 배기가스의 온도가 꾸준히 높아지는 추세이다. 따라서 고온재료의 선택과 사용이 보다 중요해 지고 있다. 자동차에 사용되는 고온 부품은 설계사양에 맞추어 그리고 경제적인 측면을 고려하여 내열재료를 사용하는 방법과 표면처리를 하는 두 가지 방법이 주로 채택되고 있다. 내열재료를 사용하는 대표적인 부품은 엔진을 구성하는 부품과 연소실로부터 나오는 고온 고압의 배기가스가 이동하는 배기계 부품이다. 엔진을 구성하는 부품 중에는 냉각수에 의해 온도가 제어되는 부분은 경제적인 소재가 사용되나 밸브와 같은 부품은 고온재료가 채용된다. 가장 높은 온도에서 사용되는 배기계 부품에는 경제성이 감안되면서도 높은 열적, 기계적 안정성이 동시에 요구되고 있다. 전통적으로 배기부품에는 구상흑연주철이 널리 사용되어 왔고 현재에도 원가 측면의 강점을 이용해 대부분의 차량에 적용되고 있으나 일부 고출력, 고배기량 엔진의 경우에는 주철의 한계온도 이상의 배기온도가 요구되어 스테인리스 강을 도입하고 있다. 또한 내열 타이타늄 합금, 금속간화합물과 같은 고온재료가 개발됨에 따라 고가의 차종에는 신재료가 이들 부품으로 채용되고 있다. 이 글에서는 배기계 부품의 설계적인 요소에 의한 열적, 기계적 측면의 내구 특성을 살펴보고, 이들 부품에 보편적으로 적용되는 고온 금속재료의 종류 및 기계적 특성을 소개하였다. 아울러 미래의 환경친화적 자동차용 고온 부품을 개발하기 위하여 연구되고 있는 Super Si+MO, 스테인리스 강, TiAl, 고온 타이타늄 합금 등과 같은 자동차 내열 부품으로 사용되는 신소재의 연구개발 동향에 관하여 기술하였다.

Research into exhaust heat recovery has been actively carried out to improve the thermal efficiency of internal combustion engines. In this study, the performance of thermoelectric generation from exhaust heat recovery for motorcycle engines was analyzed by 1-D thermo-fluid simulation. GT-SUITE, which was developed by Gamma Tech., was used for the simulation of the internal combustion engine and thermoelectric generation system. The basic performance of the engine was analyzed in the range of engine speed of 1000~7000 rpm and engine load of 0~100%. The ratio of exhaust heat energy to fuel chemical energy was found to be about 40~60%. A combined simulation of the engine model and thermoelectric generation model was carried out to analyze the voltage, current and power generated by the thermoelectric material. The generation characteristics of the thermoelectric material was dominantly affected by the exhaust gas temperature. The maximum generated power of the current thermoelectric generation system was found to be about 2.2% of the total exhaust heat energy. The design optimization of the thermoelectric generation system will be carried out to maximize its power generation and economic feasibility.

To facilitate low-pressure selective catalyst reduction (L.P SCR), a high exhaust-gas temperature of a four-stroke diesel engine for a ship's generator is required. This study aimed at reducing the exhaust-gas temperature by adjusting the valve open-close timing and fuel injection timing to satisfy the operating conditions of L.P SCR and prevent accidents associated with the generator engine due to high temperature. To lower exhaust-gas temperature, the angle of the camshaft was adjusted and the shim of the fuel injection pump was added. As a result, the maximum explosion pressure increased and the average of the turbocharger outlet temperature dropped. Considering the heat loss from the turbocharger outlet to the SCR inlet, the operation condition for L.P SCR was satisfied with 290 ℃. The study demonstrates that safe operation of a diesel generator can be achieved by lowering the exhaust-gas temperature.

The amount and quality of waste heat from a gas engine which is modified from an automobile gasoline engine is analyzed. Exhaust temperature is $573.8^{\circ}C$ and engine cooling water exit temperature is $85.7^{\circ}C$. The amount of waste heat of engine cooling water is double compared to that of exhaust gas. Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system is designed for two different waste heat source of engine cooling water and engine exhaust and is thermodynamically analyzed.

The geostationary satellite uses a liquid apogee engine, to obtain a required velocity increment to enter a geostationary orbit. However, as the liquid apogee engine operates in the vacuum, a considerable disbursement of exhaust plume flow, from the liquid apogee engine can trigger a backflow. As this backflow may possibly collide with the satellite directly, it can cause adverse effects such as surface contamination, thermal load, and altitude disturbance, that can generate performance reduction of the geostationary satellite. So, this study investigated exhaust plume behavior of 400 N grade liquid apogee engine numerically. To analyze exhaust plume behavior in vacuum condition, the DSMC (Direct Simulation Monte Carlo) method based on Boltzmann equation is used. As a result, thermal fluid characteristics of exhaust plume such as temperature and number density, are observed.

Computational analyses are conducted on the combustion characteristics of the coal- and the biomass-derived synthetic gases with low-Btu heating value in gas engine. Using thermochemical analyses on the synthetic gases, combustion pressure, temperature, exhaust gas composition, NO emission and engine power are predicted and the predicted results are compared with small-scale pilot engine test results. In order to investigate the unsteady combustion phenomena in gas engine combustion chamber, CFD analyses are carried out on the coal and the biomass synthetic gases and their computed results are compared to provide the guidelines for the design modification and the tuning of the gas engine burning the synthetic gases as alternative fuels.

Multiple devices have been installed to reduce exhaust emissions and to increase thermal efficiency. Those devices reduce the exhaust pipe opening area and increase the exhaust gas pressure. The pressure increase disturbs a gas flow and has a bad effect on the engine performance. However there is some study that NOx can be reduced with exhaust gas pressure increase. In this study an engine performance is tested with various opening ratios. The result shows that the fuel consumption rate is reduced in case of little amount of the pressure increase, and NOx is reduced with the pressure increase, while the concentration of the toxic exhaust gases are increased in the case of high back-pressure.

Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is the best concept able to provide low NOx and PM in diesel engine emissions. This new alternative combustion process is mainly controlled by chemical kinetics in comparison with the conventional combustion in internal combustion engine. However, HCCI engine's operation have an excessive rate of pressure rising during the combustion process. In this study, stratification condition of EGR exhaust gases was used to reduce the pressure rising during the combustion process in HCCI engine. Also, combustion characteristics and emissions characteristics were investigated using the detailed diesel surrogate reaction mechanism.
