This paper is the first of companion papers, which investigate port-masking effects on lean misfire limit. Port-masking was applied to commercial SOHC 3-valve and DOHC 4-valve engine by inserting masking plates between manifold and port. To induce various conditions of stratification, six types of masking plates were applied. The masking plates were placed in the upstream of injector to prevent wall wetting and two ports were not separated to permit both fuel and air entering through masked port. The results were compared with those by conventional port throttling. The results show that lean misfire limit mainly depends on masking direction, that is, high lean misfire limit is achieved when the port near the spark plug is masked. The mechanism of stratification by masking is different from axial stratification by port throttling. In this case, the rich mixture entering through masked port plays a very important role in the stratification process.

An Experimental study of oxygen enriched double inversed diffusion flame was conducted to understand the flame characteristics and radiation heat transfer. The infrared radiation meter was used to measure of various combination of fuel, air and pure oxygen. The results show that oxygen enriched double inversed diffusion flame is very effective to increase of thermal radiation and proper addition of pure oxygen in air flow can intensity thermal radiation of flame. And it can be found that oxygen enriched double inversed diffusion flame could give benefits of cost effective and very high energy saving.

본 논문은 화재발생 이후에 화재현장의 조건에 따라 분전반의 주차단기 전원측 단자에서의 트래킹 현상 진행 가능성에 대하여, 화재현장 조사사례를 들어 고찰하였다. 화재현장 조사과정에서 분전반의 주차단기 전원측 단자에서 트래킹 형태가 식별됨에도 불구하고 그 부하측에서 전기적인 특이점이 식별되는 경우에는, 단순히 트래킹 형태가 식별되는 점만으로 발화원인을 판정하는 자세를 지양하고, 구체적인 연소형태를 검토하여 발화개소, 연소확대 경로 등의 해석 및 전체적인 전기계통의 고찰을 통하여, 분전반 주차단기에서의 발화원인 등을 판정해야되며, 또한, 화재현장의 정밀조사 없이 분전반 및 차단기의 조사와 해석만으로는 발화여부 또는 발화원인에 대하여 논단하는 것이 어렵다는 결론을 도출하였다.

By means of the compatibility according to solving environmental pollution and energy problem due to the emissions of NOx and smoke from diesel engine this paper experimentally inspected the effect of using emulsified fuel, gas oil-water, for combustion characteristic, that is combustion pressure, pressure rise rate, heat generating rate, the period of ignition delay and specific fuel consumption, and CO, HC, NOx concentration and smoke density. When using emulsified fuel, as a water addition rate was increased, combustion pressure, pressure rise rate and heat generating rate was increased, the period of ignition delay was lengthening, the specific fuel consumption was some what increased in contrast to diesel fuel in low load, but deceased in high load region. And NOx concentration was decreased, CO concentration was increased in low load, but decreased in high load region, HC concentration was increased in contrast to diesel fuel in all region.

Pressurized fluidized bed combustion unit is operated at pressures of 1~1.5 MPa with combustion temperatures of 850~87$0^{\circ}C$. The pressurized coal combustion system heats steam, in conventional heat transfer tubing, and produces a hot gas supplied to a gas turbine. Gas cleaning is a vital aspect of the system, as is the ability of the turbine to cope with some residual solids. The need to pressurize the feed coal, limestone and combustion air, and to depressurize the flue gases and the ash removal system introduces some significant operating complications. The proportion of power coming from the steam : gas turbines is approximately 80:20%. Pressurized fluidized bed combustion and generation by the combined cycle route involves unique control considerations, as the combustor and gas turbine have to be properly matched through the whole operating range. The gas turbines are rather special, in that the maximum gas temperature available from the FBC is limited by ash fusion characteristics. As no ash softening should take place, the maximum gas temperature is around 90$0^{\circ}C$. As a result a high pressure ratio gas turbine with compression intercooling is used. This is to offset the effects of the relatively low temperature at the turbine inlet.

The objective of this study was to investigate, using a numerical method, the fuel injection targeting for improving the combustion performance in a HSDI diesel engine. In this work, the ECFM-3Z model was applied as the combustion model, and the injection mass, inclined spray angle, and injection timing were varied for the study on the targeting of fuel spray. The results of this work were compared in terms of cylinder pressure, rate of heat release, and exhaust emissions characteristics. It was found that the cylinder pressure increased when the injection timing was advanced, and the rate of heat release increased when more fuel was injected into the piston bowl. In addition, $NO_x$ emission increased owing to the increase in the rate of heat release. On the other hand, CO and soot emissions decreased because of the improvement in combustion performance.

The isothermal flow structure and mixing characteristics of a hybrid/dual swirl jet combustor for micro-gas turbine (MGT) were numerically investigated. Location of pilot burner, swirl angle and direction were varied as main parameters with the identical thermal load. As a result, the variations in location of pilot nozzle, swirl angle and direction resulted in the significant change in turbulent flow field near burner exit, in particular, center toroidal recirculation zone (CTRZ) as well as turbulent intensity, and thus the flame stability and emission performance might be significantly changed. With the comparison of experimental results, the case of swirl angle $45^{\circ}$ and co-swirl flow including optimum location of pilot burner were chosen in terms of the flame stability and emissions for the development of hybrid/dual swirl jet combustor.

DME HCCI기관의 단점은 디젤 엔진에 비해 기관부하 영역이 굉장히 좁다는 것이고 이는 저온산화반응이 너무 빨리 일어나서 노크를 발생시키기 때문이다. 저온산화반응을 억제하기 위해서 DME 연소에 미치는 천연가스의 영향을 실험한 결과, 천연가스가 DME의 저온산화반응을 억제시키기 때문에 기관부하영역이 확대된다는 것을 알았다. 본 연구에서는 서로 다른 세탄가를 가진 첨가연료가 DME 저온산화반응에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 조사하였다. 그 결과 저온산화반응의 최고 열발생율은 세탄가에 의존하지 않지만 착화온도는 세탄가에 의존한다는 사실을 밝혔다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of water injection on combustion characteristics of gasoline direct injection (GDI) engine with turbo-charger under low-load operating condition. The test engine used in this study has four-cylinder and 10.2 of compression ratio. In order to study the effect of water injection ratio on combustion characteristics, the water was injected into the intake port from 10% to 50%, based on fuel injection quantity. From the experiment, it revealed that the water injection induced the improvement of fuel economy because of the advance of spark-timing by the reduction of in-cylinder temperature. In addition, the water injection caused the prolong of extension of the ignition delay and slight increase of burn duration.
