This research represents the catalytic converter for application in the motorcycle. Present research model type is a monolithic catalytic converter and this type has been widely used for satisfaction on and the regulations of pollutant emissions in automobiles. The experiment range is found for light-off temperature time of the catalyst converter. And we has to experiment for effective area of catalytic monolith. The experimental result indicated an increase effective area in the catalytic monolith. Specialty, it was found from the result that the more positive effect from result of thermal image camera in the megaphone model. The rate of effective area for base model was about 8.97% and megaphone model was 41.52%, 34.60%, 33.43%, 25.43% and 17.82% on the diffuser angle $4^{\circ}$ to $8^{\circ}$. Comparing with base type, megaphone type has more suitable for application to motorcycle.

본 연구에서는 모델링오차나 외란 등의 불확실성에도 강인한 슬라이딩 모드 제어방법을 이용하여 새로운 연료분사 제어기를 설계하였다. 그리고 8253 타이머와 A/D 변환기, 인터페이스회로 등으로 MPI가솔린 엔진용 전자 제어장치를 실제 엔진에 적용시킴으로써 새로이 설계된 연료분사 제어시스템의 성능을 파악하였다.엔진의 운전상태를 여러가지 제어 모드로 분류할 수 있으나 엔진회전수가 2000rpm, 부하가 20N의 일정한 부하 조건에서 엔진회전수를 1500rpm에서 2000rpm으로 변화시켰을 때의 과도상태 응답을 파악하였다. 이와 같이 새로운 슬라이딩 모드 연료분사 제어시스템 을 개발하여 3원촉매 변환기의 변환효율을 극대화함으로써 배기가스의 유해물질을 최 소화하는 것을 본 연구의 목적으로 하였다.

This study represents the temperature uniformity in catalytic converter. Present research model type is a monolithic catalytic converter. This type was been widely used for complying the regulations of pollutant emissions from automobiles. The mean experimental parameters are engine speed and ceramics monolith in the catalytic converter. The experimental test engine model used was the 124.1cc motorcycle engine. The experimental study using thermal imaging method shows the megaphone type model has larger effective area than the basic model. The rate of effective area in the basic model is about 8.9 % and the megaphone type model are 41.52 %, 34.60 %, 33.43 %, 25.43 %, 17.82 % according to the diffuser angle $4^{\circ}\;to\;8^{\circ}$. In conclusion, the megaphone type monolithic converter has higher efficiency of reducing the pollution with less noise compared to the basic shape. We believe this will be very important as a design guide of the advanced motorcycle.

This research represents the catalytic converter for application in the motorcycle. We have to consider about catalytic converter for reducing exhaust gas strength regarding the displacement volume enlargement. The catalytic converter has been widely used to satisfy the regulations of pollutant emissions from automobiles. Recently, all catalytic converter researches are about automobile. Study about motorcycle catalytic converter has not been conducted yet. In this study, flow uniformity and pressure distribution were simulated in the monolithic inlet of catalytic converter for motorcycle. Exhaust pulsation pressure was set as transient condition about. It was found that flow uniformity shown in base model (0.85) was lower than megaphone model (0.98).

최근에 들어서 태양에너지의 화학적 에너지로의 변환에 대한 연구는 에너지 부족에 대한 대안으로서 각광을 받고 있는 분야이다. 이런 관심을 바탕으로 한 다양한 연구는 연속식 또는 회분식 반응기를 이용한 불균일계 촉매를 이용함으로써 진행되고 있고, 특히 기-액, 기-고 그리고 기-액-고상 반응기를 응용하는 광촉매 반응에 관심이 증폭되고 있다. 그리고 광촉매 반응이 실제 산업계에서 활용되기 전에 먼저 불균일계 광촉매 반응기의 설계기준에 대한 연구가 선행되어야 하며 실제 산업적인 응용측면에서도 광촉매 반응의 충분한 이용가능성에 관심이 이루어져야 한다.(중략)

Increasing the active catalyst surface area is important in improving a converter's efficiency. In addition, uniform flow is advantageous in that it produces more efficient catalytic conversion. This results in the ability to use a smaller catalytic converter with uniform flow as opposed to a larger converter requirement for non-uniform flow. Therefore, it is important to characterize the internal flow of the catalytic converter. To characterize the system's flow patterns, velocity measurements were taken at the mid and exit planes of a ceramic honeycomb catalytic converter at flow rates of 37.8 l/s and 94.4 l/s. Measurements were conducted using LDV. The profiles were measured along both the major and minor axis of the planes. Primary flow direction velocities measured along the minor axis, at both flow rates, varied greatly at the mid plane and somewhat at the exit plane. The areas of greatest air flow were seen near the edges of the walls and on the side of the converter opposite the flow's entrance region. It also appears that the high velocities opposite the intake are due to the design of the entrance region. The entrance region is possibly too small to properly redirect the vertically entering fluid into an evenly distributed flow in the primary flow direction.

Most vehicle's exhaust emissions come from the cold transient period of the FTP-75 test. In this study, UEGI technology was developed to help close-coupled catalytic converter (CCC) reach light-off temperature within a few seconds after cold-start. In the UEGI system, unburned exhaust mixture is ignited by four glow plugs installed upstream of the catalyst. Experimental results showed that the temperature of CCC rises faster with the UEGI technology, and the CCC reaches light-off temperature earlier. Under the conditions tested, the light-off time of the baseline case was 62 seconds and that of the UEGI case was 33 seconds.

국내에서 생산되는 화강석 중 하나인 거창석은 대부분 회백색 계열이며 컬러석재의 경우 대부분 고가로 수입되어 판매가 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 컬러 화강석 제조에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 거창석 표면에 금속촉매를 도포 후 화강석 내부로 금속입자를 침투시킨 다음 열처리를 통해 거창석의 색을 영구히 변환 시키는 연구를 수행하였다. 금속촉매 침투시에 함수발생기(function generator)를 사용한 경우와 사용하지 않은 경우 시간에 따른 침투 깊이와 침투 현상의 차이를 분석하고 검정, 빨강, 갈색의 색상에 따른 침투깊이 차이 또한 비교하였다.

Prediction of the transient pressure variations and performance parameters has been carried out for an SI engine using one of commercial software, GT-POWER. Various models were applied for the calculation of properties of the plenum chamber, exhaust manifold and catalytic convertor which are very important components included in the intake and exhaust systems.
