The liquid phase LPG injection (LPLi) system (the third generation technology) has been considered as one of the next generation fuel supply systems for LPG vehicles, since it has a very strong potential to accomplish the higher power, higher efficiency, and lower emission characteristics than the mixer type(the second generation technology) fuel supply system. To investigate the durability property of core part of injector in liquid phase LPG injection system, leakage test, SEM test of injectors and analysis of unvaporized fuel components with various LPG fuel qualities were tested. The experimental results showed that no serious problem in durability test using favorable LPG fuel quality, while high leakage amount due to the large scratches in the needle and nozzle of the injector were found using LPG fuel with highly containing olefin components, especially butadiene species.

The solenoid actuated hydrogen injector and the capacitive peak-hold type driving circuit were designed and made, and the hydrogen supply system for in-cylinder injection was constructed with these. The performance of the injector was investigated through measuring the pintle lift profiles and the injection quantities, and the performance of the hydrogen supply system was confirmed through the experiments at the single cylinder engine. The injection quantity increased linearly as the duration of driving signal increased. At the single cylinder engine, the hydrogen injector was operated stably. The hydrogen flow rate of the injector with the peak-hold type driving circuit could be controlled precisely at high engine speed or low load condition only with the variation of signal duration.

Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells (PEFCs) operate in wide-range changes in temperature, humidity, and electric current for automotive applications. In order to operate automotive PEFC efficiently, optimal air supply is required to adjust to these changes. This paper presents an air-supply optimization process that consists of experiments, modeling of the PEFC system, and optimization. The objective is to establish an air supply suitable for the required power for PEFC system and optimized with a Lagrange multiplier. Our simplified PEFC system model is used as a constraint for optimization problem. The result of this paper presents that efficient operation of PEFC system can be achieved by air-supply optimization.

The objective of this experimental study is to verify atomization characteristics of emulsified fuel. The emulsified fuel made of adding the ultrasonic energy is analyzed with atomization characteristics and chemicophysics. As water contents within emulsified fuel and needle angle increase, SMD, viscosity and surface tension were analyzed. By measuring the distribution percentage of hydrogen volume by $^1H$-NMR spectrum, the proportion of aromatics and paraffins is analyzed and compared each other. The results of study is as follows. First, as water contents within emulsified fuel and needle angle of nozzle increases, SMD increases. Second, for the distribution percentage of hydrogen volume, the distribution percentage of aromatics is about 10% and the rest portion is paraffins.

본 논문에서는 연료전지자동차의 저전압 배터리 충 방전을 위한 새로운 3상 양방향 DC-DC 컨버터를 제안한다. 12V 저전압측의 높은 전류정격 때문에 기존의 풀브리지 방식으로는 적절한 스위치의 선정이 어렵지만 제안한 3상의 전류분배로 스위치의 선정과 변압기의 제작이 용이하다. 그리고 제안한 변압기 결선으로 턴비가 작아져 누설인덕턴스가 작아진다. 또한 비대칭 PWM에 의한 모든 스위치의 ZVS 턴온과 저전압 측에서는 동기정류 방식을 적용하여 효율을 상승시켰다. 제안하는 컨버터의 동작원리를 기술하고 3.5kW 시작품을 제작하여 실험을 통해 본 방식의 타당성을 검증한다.

This work was conducted to figure out the atomization characteristics of three types of bio-diesel fuels using a common-rail injection system. The process of spray development was visualized by using a spray visualization system composed of a Nd:YAG laser and an ICCD camera, The spray tip penetrations were analyzed based on the frozen images from the spray visualization system. On the other hand, the microscopic atomization characteristics such as the distributions of SMD and axial mean velocity were measured by using a phase Doppler particle analyzer system, It is revealed that the sprays of the bio-diesel fuels have larger SMD than that of diesel fuel mainly due to high viscosity of bio-diesel. Different characteristics of bio-diesel fuels were also measured in spray tip penetrations according to the fuels and mixing ration.

A diesel engine has various merits such as high thermal-efficiency, superior fuel consumption and durability. Therefore the number of diesel engine in the world is increasing. As the seriousness of environmental pollution increases in the world, the method to reduce the noxious materials of CO2, NOx and P.M. is very important subject to correspond to exhaust gas regulations. A new concept, so called premixed charge compression ignition(PCCI), is focused among the various corresponding manners. In this study, we investigated the combustion characteristics of PCCI engine using a mixed fuels with that of commercial diesel engine. Finally we grasped a emission characteristics of PCCI engine. From this experiment, it could be found that NOx reduction is caused by the lower maximum temperature and soot reduction is caused by rapid combustion under diffusion combustion part. Also, it was found that 1st-combustion(cool flame) and 2nd-combustion(hot flame) is appeared in heat release curve, exhaust gas temperature is diminished and combustion variation is increased according to increasing of gasoline ratio.
