Computational simulation has been conducted to analyze the oil separation performance of gasoline engine oil separators. Two models are compared to select a proper oil separator for the engine. To analyze oil separation characteristics, d50 and separation efficiency have been calculated for each separator. As a result, model A shows excellent d50 and separation efficiency, and model B shows good pressure-drop characteristics. Model B is recommended for the general gasoline engine with low crank-case pressure and low oil consumption. Model A is recommended for the engine with high crank-case pressure and high oil consumption, especially equipped with special exhaust gas treatment system, that is critical to the oil contamination.

본 논문은 전산해석을 통하여 일반적으로 가솔린엔진에 적용되는 오일분리기의 성능을 분석하였다. 현재 상용화된 제품을 해석한 결과 Labyrinth부분에서는 포집 능력이 거의 없는 것을 확인하였다. 오일입자 포집효율이 전체적으로 분포되지 않고 5개의 작은 홀이 있는 격판 부분에서만 집중적으로 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 일반적인 Cyclone형태의 오일분리기보다 압력강하량이 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In conventional closed-loop crankcase ventilation systems, the lubrication oil had to be re-circulated to the intake manifold, in the form of oil mist mixed with the blow-by gas. This blow-by gas containing the engine lubricant oil affects on the engine problems and the exhaust emissions. A high-efficient oil separator is required to minimize consumption of engine oil and reduce harmful emissions. In the conventional oil separator of CI engines, it has good oil separation performance even though separator design is simple, due to lots of the blow-by gas. As the emission regulation becomes severe, the oil separator for SI engines is also required. But in SI engines, separator design should be optimized, due to small size of oil particles and little amount of blow-by gas. In this study, oil separation performance classified by diameter of oil mist in cylinder head cover internal model which has three cyclones and two baffle plates for SI engine is calculated with CFD methodology.

In this study, the separation of water/bitumen emulsion was investigated by chemical demulsification method. Motor oils (GS Caltex Deluxe Gold V 7.5W/30, Hyundai gear oil 85W/140) and asphalt (AP-5, KS M 2201, Dongnam Petrochemical MFG. Co.) were used as model oils in the preliminary experiments to effectively remove water from water/bitumen emulsion. The bitumen extracted from Canadian oilsands was used in this study. The water/oil emulsion was not separated without demulsifiers, and Hyundai motor oil showed higher efficiency of water separation at a low concentration of demulsifier compared with that for GS Caltex motor oil. However, as the concentration increased, the efficiency did not rapidly increase compared with that of GS Caltex motor oil. It was highly speculated that the water phase of Hyundai motor oil was not dispersed well compared with that of GS Caltex motor oil because the viscosity of Hyundai motor oil was much higher than that of GS Caltex motor oil. The demulsifier of higher HLB (hydrophilic - lipophilic balance) value had high separation efficiencies in water/oil emulsion. The TWEEN 20 (polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate solution) showed better separation efficiency than other demulsifiers.

A closed type crankcase ventilation system has been adopted to engines to prevent emission of blow-by gas to atmosphere. In the early closed type crankcase ventilation system, blow-by gas which contains engine lubricating oil is re-circulated into the intake system. The blow-by gas containing oil mist leads to increased harmful emissions and engine problems. To reduce loss of the engine oil, a highly-efficient oil separation device is required. Principle of a cyclone oil separator is to utilize centrifugal force in the separator and, therefore, oil separator designs depend on rotational flow which causes the centrifugal force. In this paper, flow characteristics and oil separation performances for cyclone type designs are calculated with CFD methodology. In the CFD model, oil particle was injected on a inlet surface with Rosin-Rammler distribution and uniform distribution. The major design parameters considered in the analysis model are inlet area, cone length and outlet depth of the oil separator. As results, reducing inlet area and increasing cone length increase oil separation performance. Changes in outlet depth could avoid interference between rotational flow and outlet flow in the cyclone oil separator.

The oil trap in oil separator is one of the most important characteristics for normal operation of compressor. In this study, oil separation characteristics has been investigated for $CO_2$/PAG mixture using a gravity type of oil separator. The experimental study has been carried out in the range of oil concentration 0 to 5 weight-percent and the mixture temperature range of $0^{\circ}C$ to $15^{\circ}C$. The results obtained indicate that oil separation ratio in oil separator is increased with an increase in the oil concentration and mixture temperature.

The oil separation in an oil separator is one of the most important characteristics for proper compressor operation. In this study, a gravity type of oil separator is used. Oil separation characteristics has been investigated for $CO_2$/PAG mixture in the range of oil concentration 0 to 5 weight-percent and the mixture temperature range of $5^{\circ}C$ to $15^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$. The results obtained indicate that the oil separation is increased with an increase in the oil concentration. It is also found that the oil separation in liquid state is increased with an increase in the mixture temperature while the oil separation in gas state is decreased.

작업장에서 근로자들이 엔진오일 등 각종 오일에 피부가 폭로되었을 때 이것을 쉽게 세척하기 위하여 일반적으로 솔벤트를 사용한다. 그러나 솔벤트를 사용하면 피부를 건조하게 만들 뿐만 아니라 오일에 함유되어 있는 각종 성분들을 피부내에 흡수되는 것을 촉진시킬 수 있어서 이에대한 대처방법이 요구된다. 특히 폐가솔닐엔진오일데는 방향족탄화수소(PAHs)와 같은 물질이 함유되어 있어 체내에 흡수되면 발암물질로 대사되어 표적장기(피부와 폐조직)에서 DNA adducts를 높은 수준으로 형성한다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 식물기름에서 구할 수 있는 d-라이모닌(Limonene)를 세척제로 사용하여 폐가솔린엔진오일의 폭로로 인하여 형성되는 DNA adducts를 $^{32}P-postlabeling방법으로 분석함으로써 d-라이모닌의 세척효과를 평가하고자 하였다. HDC(ICR) Br 자성마우스의 견갑골 부위에 있는 털을 제거하고 그 부위에 폐가솔린엔진오일을 폭로시키고 1시간과 8시간이 지난 다음에 d-라이모닌으로 각각 세척을 하였다. 마지막 폭로를 마치고 24시간이 지난 다음에 실험동물을 희생시켜 표적장기(폭로된 피부와 폐)에서 시료를 채취하였다. 먼저 시료에서 DNA를 분리하여 가수분해한 다음에 $^{32}P-postlabeling하여 DNA adducts를 분리하였다. 폐가솔린엔진오일만 폭로시킨 그룹의 피부와 폐조직에 형성된 DNA adducts가 각각 30.3$\pm$3.7과 15.7$\pm$2.4로서 대조군(2.5$\pm$1.0과 1.4$\pm$0.4)에 비하여 통계적으로 유의하게 높았고 (p<0.01), 또한 폐조직에서 보다 피부조직에서 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다(p<0.01). 폐가솔린엔진오일을 폭로시킨 후에 d-라이모닌으로 세척한 그룹에서는 피부와 폐조직에 형성된 DNA adducts가 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였는데(p<0.01), 8시간 보다는 1시간이 지난 다음에 세척한 그룹에서 DNA adducts의 감소현상이 더 크게 나타났다. 결론적으로 피부에 폭로된 폐가솔린 엔진오일을 d-라이모닌으로 세척하면 폐가솔닐엔진오일내에 함유된 발암물질이 체내흡수되는 것이 억제되고, 피부와 폐조직 모두에서 DNA adducts의 형성을 감소시킬 수 있으며, 폐오일이 폭로된 후 빨리 세척하는 것이 더 효과적임을 증명하였다.

Essential oil was separated from Dendropanax morbiferus (DM) by means of hot water extraction and supercritical extraction, respectively, and the separated essential oil was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively, and the antioxidant effect of essential oil was investigated. In addition, yields of essential oil and Caryophyllene according to the drying and extraction methods for each part of DM were obtained and compared, respectively. The yield of essential oil was found to be high in the order of bark > leaves > twigs > limb. When the freeze-dried DM leaves were supercritically extracted, the yields of essential oil and Caryophyllene were 23.2 g/kg DM and 429.6 mg Caryophyllene/kg DM, respectively. The essential oil of DM showed an antioxidant effect even at a low concentration, and the concentration of the essential oil of SC₅₀, which means 50% of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, was about 0.34%.

More than 3 wt% of polycyclic aromatics (PCAs) in process oil is known to cause skin cancer. The criterion of distinguishing between low PCA oil and high PCA oil is based on 3 wt% of PCA. High PCA oil is called as a carcinogen like distillate aromatic extract (DAE). Low PCA oil is considered as safety oils like treated distillate aromatic extract (TDAE), mild extract solvate (MES), and paraffinic oil. Four types of process oils such as DAE, TDAE, MES, and paraffinic oil purified by solvent extraction and separation skills from SBR vulcanizates were measured by FT-IR techniques. The effects of rubber chemicals such as N-1,3-dimethylbutyl-N'-phenyl-p-phenylnenediamine (HPPD), polymerized 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (TMDQ), paraffin wax as antidegradants, and processing aid like Structol 40MS on paraffinic oil from SBR vulcanizates were also studied. The type of low or high PCA was identified by the relative abundance of absorbance at the aromatic substitution patterns of 864, 810, and $754cm^{-1}$ and at the paraffinic or naphthenic pattern of $721cm^{-1}$.
