선박으로부터 배기오염에 대한 국내의 관련 규제들이 강화되면서 관련 기술 개발이 급격하게 이뤄지고 있다. 그 중 탱커선의 화물탱크로부터 배출되는 유중기를 대기중으로 방출하지 않고 회수할 수 있는 설비 관련기술이 개발되고 있다. 회수설비 중 포함되는 스크러버는 가스 속의 부유 고액 미립자를 액을 이용하여 포집하는 장치로서, 스프레이 노즐을 통해 액을 분사하며, 일반적으로 물을 사용한다. 고효율 스크러버 설계기술 개발을 위해 스크러버용 노즐의 성능해석과 유동가시화 실험을 통한 내부유동 특성을 연구하였다.

Fuel atomization and mixture formation in an gasoline engine has influence on the engine performance and pollutant emission. The throttle valve installed in an intake system plays a greater role in control of mixture quantity in accordance with engine drive condition. In this study, the characteristics of secondary atomization developed at the downstream of the valves were observed using an image processing method. Two major kinds of valves, solid and perforated ones, are chosen in order to compare the valve performance with the experimental parameters of air flow rate, valve opening angle, and valve shapes. For the perforated valve, we can obtain the relatively small sized droplets, and nearly uniformed and dense distributed sprays with low loss coefficient than for the solid valve.

The power of an international combustion engine depends on its ability to inhale air whether it is naturally aspirated or turbocharged. The use of fuel injection allows engine efficiency to be increased through a more even distribution of the air/fuel ratio throughout the engine's operation range. The theoretical value for complete combustion in an engine is commonly refered to as stoichiometric, which means that we require 14.7 parts of air to 1 part of gasoline. This stoichiometric ratio can be more closely maintained with electronically controlled fuel injection than it can with carburetion. Because of the greater efficiency of the engine using fuel injection, a horse power increase of at least 10% is produced over its carburetor version. In addition, better fuel economy and less exhaust emissions are also obtained.

In order to reduce hydrocarbon emissions of spark ignition engine, it is important not only to improve catalyst conversion efficiency but also to reduce direct engine out hydrocarbon emissions, during cold starting and warm up process. Tjerefore many researchers have been attracted to develop an early fuel evaporator (EFE) by introducing a ceramic heater for a solution of engine out hydrocarbon emissions in SI engine. But, the performance of the EFE in MPI engine to reduce the exhaust emissions and to improve the cold startability has nat been clarified yet. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a glow plug for EFE.

Since LPG (Liquefied petroleum gas) fuel supply system has an advantage of low emission characteristics, many studies have been conducted. In spite of the advantage of LPG supply system, a higher vapor pressure and lower viscosity than diesel or gasoline fuel may cause unstable running of fuel pump by the deterioration in lubrication performance and chemical reaction with rubber parts than that of diesel and gasoline fuel. Therefore its physical properties can cause the deterioration of durability. In this research, we developed an external type LPG pump which has the advantage of the price competitiveness and the convenient maintenance for LPLi system. The experiments were carried out in order to assess characteristics of the external type fuel pump at different fuel composition and temperature. As a result, there aren't any differences between internal and external type pump performance. It is observed that the same level of efficiency was maintained for both pumps as flow rate was increased with higher fuel temperature and more contents of propane in the fuel. And the pressure difference in LPLi system is maintained at constant with the various fuel compositions and temperatures due to their own characteristics of fuel supply system.

최근 석탄 가스화 기술은 화석연료인 석탄을 기존의 공해물질 발생을 90%이상 줄이면서 고효율로 활용할 수 있는 방법으로 각광받고 있다. 본 연구는 당 센터에서 보유하고 있는 습식 석탄 가스화기의 성능 향상을 위하여 버너의 형태에 따른 미립화 특성을 파악하였으며, 가스화기의 버너로 적용하여 가스화 특성 실험을 실시하였다. 미립화 특성을 파악하기 위하여 개발되어진 3가지 형태의 버너를 Cold Test장치를 이용하여 $O_2$/Fuel Ratio 및 버너의 내부 혼합 방식, 분사각도에 따른 미립화 특성을 관찰하였으며, 입도 분석은 심파텍사의 입도 분석기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 실험 결과 이중혼합식 버너가 미립화 특성이 가장 우수하게 나타났으며, 외부혼합식 버너와 환형 버너의 경우 비슷한 미립화 특성을 나타내었다. 가스화기에 적용하여 실험한 결과 미립화 특성이 우수하게 나타나는 경우 가스화 특성 또한 우수하게 나타남을 확인하였다.

왕복동 내연 기관 실린더 내의 가스 유동은 기관의 성능 향상, 연소 개선, 배기 정화 등에 직접적 으로 영향을 미치는 인자로 되며, 최근 각종 유동의 측정 방법 및 측정 장치의 개발은 가스 유동 계측에 많은 발전을 가져 왔다. 특히 각종 열기관의 연소 성능 향상을 위한 노력은 기관의 성능 향상과 더불어 여소 배출물의 유해 성분 저감을 위한 연구에 더욱 박차를 가하게 되었다. 이에 따라서 기관의 최적 제어 운전, 자동 제어 연료 공급 및 분사장치 등에 이르기까지 많은 노력이 경주되어 왔다. 이러한 연구 개발에 못지 않게 중요한 것은 실린더 내의 연소 성능을 향상시키 는 것이며 이를 위해서는 먼저 기관 실린더 내부의 가스 유동을 밝히고, 유동의 모델링, 유동장의 계측, 연소장의 유동 측정 등의 연구가 매우 중요한 것으로 생각된다. 실린더 내의 연소 및 유 동장의 연구는 주로 연소 특성치를 관한 연구와 유동장을 중심으로 하는 흐름의 시뮬레이션을 비롯 유동장의 계측으로 크게 나눌 수 있다. 여기서는 주로 실린더 내의 가스 유동의 측정 방 법과 최근의 연구 동향에 대하여 몇 가지 측정의 보기를 중심으로 다루기로 한다.

The humidification of reactant gases is crucial for efficiently operating PEM (polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cell systems and for improving the durability of these systems. The recycle of the energy and water vapor of exhaust gas improves the system performance especially in the case of automotive application. The available humidification methods are steam injection, nozzle spray, humidification by enthalpy wheel, membrane humidifier, etc. However, these methods do not satisfy certain requirements such as compact design, efficient operation and control. In this study, a hybrid humidification system consisting of a membrane humidifier and exhaust-air recirculation units was developed and the humidification performance of this hybrid humidifier was analyzed. Finally, a new practical method for optimal design of PEM-fuel-cell humidification system is proposed.

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the combustion characteristics of the slinger combustor. A combustion test rig was manufactured and installed in KARI combustor test facility. From the ignition test results, we found that there were two major factors influencing the ignition limits; by increasing the rotational speed and the air mass flow rate, a better ignition performance was attained. From the combustion test results, we obtained 99.6% combustion efficiency, 15% pattern factor, and 3% profile factor. The results in this work indicate that the ignition and combustion characteristics of a slinger combustor are markedly different from those of a conventional annular combustor.

As ship's fuel oil recently becomes viscous and the amount of sludge increases, many researches and studies are underway to process the sludge onboard the ship and to recycle it as a fuel for ship's boiler. Of many researches, especially ultrasonic emulsifier to break the particle of sludge into fine pieces is recognized as a most possible recycling device. In this regards, the author investigates the property change of sludge's temperature and pressure at the early stage of the study of ultrasonic emulsifier. This study can be used as a useful dora to determine the proper temperature and pressure to inject the processed sludge in the boiler injector and the results can also be comparable dora with the experimental data by ultrasonic emulsifier. In addition, the results will be a fundamental data to study the filtering efficiency of the sludge particle broken by temperature and pressure. It is expected that this study ultimately play a role to prevent marine oil pollution as the sludge is recycled onboard the ship and used as a fuel for boiler.
