This paper presents new ignition method and ignition recognition logic for a microturbine. New ignition method is designed by constant speed control of a microturbine with pre-determined time during a ignition period. It make more accurate air-fuel ratio as well as give enough time to ignition system to have full performance under cold temperature. And ignition recognition logic is designed by observing output current change of inverter by generating output torque of a microturbine in the instant of ignition. For filtering a output torque current of inverter with high frequency, we applied a moving average method. So far, ignition recognition is usually implemented by measuring of exhausted gas temperature(EGT) of microturbine. The proposed logic can give more accurate judgement of ignition as well as keep a good working of starting system under out of order a temperature measuring system and biased initial value of EGT sensor. Finally, the two proposed logics are proved by field operating a microturbine under various conditions.

The combustion in the cylinder of spark ignition engine is completed after the delayed time that the liquid film fuel is vapourized as flowing into the combustion chamber. It is necessary to enhance the homogeneity of mixture and the combustion phenomenon in order to improve the heat efficiency and the emission characteristics of spark ignition engine. The main purpose of this paper is to manufacture a combustion analyzing system and examine closely the influence of non-uniformity due to the liquid film fuel flowing in the intake manifold on the combustion characteristics by using a 4 stroke multi- cylinder spark ignition engine. Moreover, with each cylinder, the interpretation of combustion characteristics by indicator diagram and the concentration of exhaust gas were investigated.

Hybrid rockets have many advantages over solid and liquid rockets. Hybrid rockets put forth high $I_{sp}$ like liquid rockets in spite of simple structure and low cost. As oxidizer flow rate is increased, thrust of hybrid rocket is increased accordingly. In this study, lab-scale hybrid rocket is designed, fabricated and tested. This system consists of lab-scale hybrid rocket motor, ignition system, flow system and data aquisition system. In order to control oxidizer flow rate, we construct flow rate control system by using needle valve and stepping motor.

이 논문에서는 이산형 상태 공간 모델에서의 새로운 FIR 필터를 제안한다. 선형성, 무진동성, FIR 구조, 초기 조건과의 무관성등을 디자인 과정에서 고려해서 성능 지표를 최소화 하는 필터를 구한다. 성능지표로는 구간에서 외란 에너지와 현재 추정 에러의 최대 이득으로 생각하며, 이 지표는 일반적인 성능지표와는 다르다. 제안된 필터는 배치 형태로 먼저 구하고, 점화식 형태로 바꿀 수 있음을 보인다. 제안한 필터는 확률론적 시스템의 이동 구간 무편향 FIR 필터(RHUFF)와 유사함을 보인다.

Because of using electrical technologies in the automobile system. It is difficult to detect and recover malfunction of the automobile system. Only the skillful repair engineers could find and repair their problems in these days, but their inconsistent knowhow make it hard to accumulate their knowledge. This paper presents the relations between the engine ignition line and the malfunction of the automobile.

Since hydrogen has the lower minimum ignition energy than that of gasoline, hydrogen could be also appropriate for the IC engine systems. However, due to the low ignition energy, there might be a 'back-fire' and 'pre-ignition' problems with hydrogen SI(Spark-ignition) combustion. In this research, cooling effects of intake gas mixture on the improvement of the maximum power output were evaluated in a 2.4 L SI engine. There were two ways to cool intake gas mixtures. The first one was cooling intake fresh air by adjusting inter-cooler system after turbocharger. The other one was cooling hydrogen fuel before supplying by using heat ex-changer. Cooling hydrogen was performed under natural aspired condition. The result showed that cooling fresh air from 40 ℃ to 20~30 ℃ improved the maximum brake power up to 6.5~8.6 % and cooling hydrogen fuel as -6 ℃ enhanced the maximum brake power likewise.

Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) has been considered as a future propulsion system for broad range of operation and higher thermal efficiency. Various subsystem technologies have been studied for more than decade to improve the performance of the potential system. New valve systems has been developed for the stable operation at high frequency including inflow-driven valve, rotary valve and valveless system. To foster the detonation initiation with a little ignition energy, plasma ignition method and DDT (deflagration to detonation transition) acceleration method such as swept ramp mechanism have been studied. Fluidic nozzle system and other nozzle system are the ongoing research topics to maximize the propulsion performance of the PDE. Present paper introduces the state of the art of PDE subsystem technologies developed in recent years.

Heat transfer oils are used in applications such as chemical plant heating systems, refinery heat exchange systems, certain gas processes, injection molding systems, and pulp and paper processing. These oils are extremely stable and resistant to thermal and oxidative degradation. In the event of a spill or accidental release of heat transfer oils, it can be ignited easily when there is an ignition source. This study discusses the status of safety management through the actual status of the heat transfer oils to prevent fire and explosion accidents in industries for process safety management. The actual status of the heat transfer oils in process system of industries surveyed by a questionnaire developed. The results of this study can be used to help establishment of safety management to prevent fire and explosion accidents, such as the management of heat transfer oils, safe operation and maintenance in heat transfer oil processes.

Recently, environmental concerns increased, CNG fuel research for the prevention against air pollution is actively. But, the problems of CNG fuel have less output and a shorter charging distance than gasoline. Especially, the causes of the torque and output reduction are the mixed fuel has a combustion timing loss in case of CNG fuel which has a smaller heating value per a unit volume and a slower flame propagation speed than gasoline. In this paper, we design the spark advanced controller in consideration of the spark timing loss. Through the experimental of chassis dynamometer, we show that maximum power and torque have improved compared to that of general CNG bi-fuel system.
