For the representative of the poor performance of liquid fuel(Jet A-1), the physical properties effests of different additive ratios in the liquid fuel have been investigated. The mixed liquid fuel could be analyzed by principal factor of liquid fuel such as, density, viscosity and caloric value. This additives will be usefully applied to high energy density liquid fuel development.

Firing test of the fuel grain for solid fuel ramjet with additives and ignition support material was conducted. Fuel grain consist of HTPB mixed with AP particle 15 wt.%, Boron particle 5 wt.%. To cause the short ignition delay, ignition support consist of $NC/BKNO_3$ and composite propellant was coated to the fuel grain. An oxidant gas having a controlled temperature, pressure and oxygen composition close to the air condition in the ramjet combustor was supplied using the Ethanol blended $H_2O_2$ gas generator. Gas was set to flow at a mass flow rate of 150 g/s and mass flux of $200kg/m^2s$ in the grain port. Through the test, ignition support operated well and ignition delay of 0.5. During the test, stable chamber pressure with 8 bar and high combustion efficiency of 0.86 was confirmed.

This paper presents an experimental analysis of the growth and oxidation processes of soot particles generated in an isooctane diffusive laminar flame due to incomplete combustion. The effects of iron-based diagnostics were employed to measure the elastic scattering light from soot particles in a flame at different flame heights, and the differential scattering coefficients were calculated through a calibration process. The growth and oxidation of soot particles in flame was investigated by comparing differential scattering coefficients, and the soot volume fraction was seen to decrease in the soot oxidation process. In the same manner, the differential scattering coefficients were calculated for iron-based fuel-additive seeded flame, and these coefficients were revealed to be smaller than those obtained in the fuel-additive unseeded flame. In addition, transmission through the radial direction of the flame was measured, and transmission in the soot oxidation regime was approximately 5% higher for the seeded flame. The propensity of the data coincided well with the differential scattering coefficients, and it can be concluded that the iron component of the fuel additive plays a crucial role as a catalyst, which eventually enhanced soot particle oxidation.

For the preparation of Aluminum-slurry fuel, the effects of process parameters on the aluminum dispersion stability in the liquid fuel have been investigated. The dispersion stability of aluminum-slurry fuels could be monitored by measurements through Turbiscan using the scattering of the Laser. Through the application of various additives, TPAB (Tetrapropyl ammonium bromide) showed more reasonable performance than others.

Preparation and characterization of carbon-slurry fuel with high dispersion have been carried out. Carbon-slurry fuel was obtained by mixing Jet A-1 liquid fuel with appropriate carbon powders and additives. Dispersion of carbon in Jet A-1 was affected by various factors such as mixing temperature, characteristics of carbon powders, and type and amount of additives. Among these factors, the stability of the slurry fuel was most dependent on the type of additive. A variety of additives such as anionic, cationic, and nonionic additives was tested for the dispersion of carbon in Jet A-1. It was found that anionic additives based on sodium salts showed the highest dispersion of carbon-slurry fuels. The degree of dispersion could be monitored by measuring the luminosity.

This study was performed to investigate solubility, dissolution rate and ash content of solid type fuel additive in gasoline and diesel in order to set up manufacturing standards. From the results, the unfiltered impurities were increased when the fuel additive was added on gasoline and diesel. Also, the unfiltered fuel additive was decreased with respect to increasing the pore size of the filter paper. When one gram of the fuel additive was dissolved in one liter of gasoline at room temperature, the best dissolution rate was about 2 hours. But, almost nothing was dissolved in diesel during 72 hours at $20^{\circ}C$ below zero. At the experiment of ash content, the gasoline which the fuel additive was melted in was showing 28 times more ash content than that was not including the fuel additive. Therefore, it seemed that almost all of ash content was caused by the fuel additive.

현재 국내에서 생산되는 에탄올은 원료나 연료용으로 사용되는 합성알콜과 주류의 원료로 사용되는 발효알콜이 대부분을 차지하고 있다. 그러나 휘발유 첨가제, 연료용 알콜의 수요가 늘어날 경우 발효공정을 이용한 에탄올 연료의 사용이 늘어날 전망이며 특히 기존의 휘발유 첨가제 중 옥탄가 향상을 위한 MTBE 대신 에탄올, ETBE의 사용이 환경적인 측면이나 경제적으로 유리하다. 연로나 첨가제로서 에탄올을 사용하기 위해서는 기존의 95%의 순도를 갖는 일반에탄ㅇ올 대신에 99.5wt%이상의 고순도 에탄올을 생산하여야 하며 에탄올 농축공정 중의 하나인 Pervaporation은 국내에서 1-2년 전부터 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으나 현재 국내에서 진행되고 있는 Pervaporation Test는 대부분 합성알콜을 이용하여 수행되었다. 이 실험에서는 주정공장에서 제조한 주정과 조주정을 이용, 현장 Pilot Test를 통해 PV System의 성능 검증, 에탄올 내 Trace 물질파악 및 필요 막면적을 이용하여 합성알콜과의 Performance비교를 수행하였다.

In this study, the characteristics of the SRF (Solid Refuse Fuel) prepared by blending each of the additives (citrus peel, waste wood, coal) in the heavy oil fly ash, evaluating the heavy oil fly ash recyclability. Recycling SRFs were fabricated by pellet extruding method after blending the heavy oil fly ash and additives based on 30% moisture content. As a result, the formability of the SRFs was excellent under condition of blending heavy oil fly ash with coal or citrus peel and the highest calorific value was 4,274 kcal/kg at heavy oil fly ash mixed with coal. Therefore, the formability and calorific value were improved when the heavy oil fly ash was mixed with coal(20 wt%) at 30% moisture content. From these results, the applicability of SRFs with additives was confirmed by using the heavy oil fly ash from J thermal power plant.

Cetane number of diesel fuel for compression ignition engine is one of main properties for fuel ignition quality. Recently the cetane index has been replaced the cetane number in order to resolve the disadvantage of CFR engine test, but these two value have slightly difference values due to addition of various additives. In this study, we analyzed the cetane number, derived cetane number and cetane index for diesel fuel which was blended with various ratios of biodiesel, kerosene and cetane improver as additives. As a result, Cetane number showed the similar value with derived cetane number, but cetane index showed quite different value with cetane number when biodiesel and cetane improver were used as additives.
