고효율의 실현이 가능한 흡기관 분사식 수소기관의 역화 억제 가능성을 파악하고자 밸브 오버랩 기간의 변화에 따른 제반 기관성능과 역화가 발생되는 역화한계 당량비를 실험적으로 해석하였다. 실험에는 기계식 연속 가변밸브 타이밍 시스템이 부착된 연구용 수소기관을 사용하였다. 밸브 오버랩기간은 배기밸브 개폐시기를 고정하고 흡기밸브 캠의 위상각을 조절하여 변화시켰다. 해석결과 밸브 오버랩 기간의 감소에 따른 제반기관성능은 통상의 기관과 유사하지만 역화한계 당량비가 확장되어 초기 단계이지만 수소기관의 역화발생에 밸브오버랩 기간이 관여하는 것이 보였다. 기관 회전수 1600 rpm, WOT의 실험 조건에서 밸브 오버랩 기간을 $20^{\circ}CA$에서 $0^{\circ}CA$로 감소시킨 경우 역화한계당량비는 약 45% 정도 확장되고 정미 토크는 16% 감소했다.

Hydrogen gas has several merits such as lower ignition energy, wide flammability and shorter quenching distance. It leads to high thermal efficiency but backfire occurrence. In this study, feasibility of expansion of BFL(Back-Fire Limit) equivalence ratio and combustion characteristics by a dilution of hydrogen fuel are experimently examined by using experimental heavy duty single cylinder hydrogen fueled engine. As results, it is found that BFL equivalence ratio is expanded to rich range and torque is increased.

Backfire occurrence must be controlled for the practical use of hydrogen fueled engine. It was found from preceeding studies that crevice volume around piston rings could effect a backfire occurrence. In this study, a possible countermeasure to backfire occurrence was evaluated by using multi point ignition method around piston ring. The results showed that backfire limited equivalence ratio was increased by a little due to a enhancing effect of mixture combustion around piston crevice volume.

수소 기관에서 역화없이 고성능과 저$NO_x$를 실현시키기 위하여 밸브 타이밍 변화에 따른 흡기관 분사식 수소 기관의 성능을 파악하고 가솔린의 경우와 비교하였다. 그 결과 흡기밸브 타이밍은 역화억제와 성능향상에 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. 흡기밸브타이밍의 진각은 역화를 억제하며 효율과 출력을 동시에 향상된다. 비록 흡기밸브 타이밍 변화에 의해 NOx는 증가하지만, 희박영역인 출 ${\Phi}=0.5$에서 현저히 감소된다. 또한 열효율은 ${\Phi}=0.5$ 토크는 ${\Phi}=1.0$에서 가장 높게 나타난다. 흡기밸브 타이밍을 $ATDC20^{\circ}$에서 TDC로 변화시켰을 때, ${\Phi}=1.0$에서 토크는 약 28% 증가되고, ${\Phi}=0.5$에서 효율은 약 7%향상된다.

In order to verify the feasibility of expansion of back-fire limit equivalence ratio in the hydrogen-fueled engine with external mixture, the characteristics of performance and combustion are experimentally analyzed with change of intake/exhaust valve timings under the fixed valve overlap period of $0^{\circ}$ CA(non-valve overlap period). These characteristics are also tested for the change of exhaust valve closing timing while intake valve opening timing is fixed to clear the main cause of back-fire occurrence. As the results, the less valve overlap period center is retarded, the more back-fire limit equivalence ratio increases and back-fire does not occurred after TDC. In addition, it was shown that the control of back-fire is dependent on intake valve opening timing than valve overlap period.

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.
