The HCCI engines have been known with high efficiency and low pollution and can be actualized as the new internal combustion engines. However, As for(??) the ignition and combustion depend strongly on the oxidation reaction of the fuel, so it is difficult to control auto-ignition timing and combustion duration. Purpose of this paper is creating the database for development of multi-dimensional simulation and investigating the influence of different molecular structure. In this research, the effect of n-heptane mole ratio in fuel (XnH) on the ignition delay from homogeneous charge compression ignition(HCCI) has been investigated experimentally. By varying the XnH, it was possible to ascertain whether or not XnH is the main resource of ignition delay. Additionally, the information on equivalence ratio for varying XnH was obtained. The tests were performed on a RCM (Rapid Compression Machine) fueled with n-heptane and iso-octane. The results showed that decreasing XnH (100, 30, 20, 10,0), the ignition delays of low temperature reaction (tL) and high temperature reaction (tH) is longer. And the temperature of reaction increases by about 30K. n-heptane partial equivalence ratio (fnH) affect on tL.and TL. When ${\phi}$nH was increased as a certain value, tL was decreased and TL was increased.

This paper presents an experimental study on the GDI injector with Bosch method. The injection characteristics, such as the injection quantity, the injection rate, the maximum velocity of the nozzle exit and the injection delay were studied through the change of the injection pressure, the tube pressure and energizing duration in injection rate measurement device using nheptane. The injection quantity is increased by increasing injection pressure, decreasing tube pressure or increasing energizing duration. As the difference of the injection quantity changed, the shape of injection rate was moved with a constant form. The maximum velocity of the nozzle exit showed a tendency to increase as the injection pressure is increased. However, tube pressure did not affect. Overall, it was confirmed that the closing delay is longer than the opening delay in all conditions. As the injection pressure increased, the result has a tendency to decrease the closing delay, it did not affect the opening delay. Reduction of the closing delay showed the reduction of the injection duration. the tube pressure and energizing duration did not affect the injection delay (opening delay, closing delay).

The reduced scale fire test provides basic data but it is not enough to analysis real fire problem directly because there is no exact analogy theory between a real fire and the reduced scale model. Therefore, we have developed the 10 MW large scale calorimeter in order to real scale fire test. This advanced large scale calorimeter used for physical properties such as a heat release rate, based upon consumption of $O_2$ method. Using the heptane pool fire, we carried out the calibration in order to evaluation for heat release rate. It is approve that this facility has the reliability and it is capable of applying to the advance fire research in the future.

환기부족 구획화재에서 CO의 생성은 온도 및 조성에 큰 영향을 받으며, 구획 내의 체류시간 및 이동경로에 따라 복잡한 현상을 경험하게 된다. 그 결과 구획 내부의 CO 생성특성을 실험을 통해 상세하게 규명하는 것은 많은 한계가 있다. 이러한 배경 하에 본 연구에서는 환기부족 구획화재의 조건에서 총괄당량비에 따른 CO의 생성특성에 관한 수치해석 연구를 수행하였다. PSR(완전혼합반응기) code와 헵탄연료의 상세화학반응기구가 사용되었다. 주요 변수로서 체류시간, 온도, 반응물과 생성물의 혼합정도 그리고 열손실 등이 CO의 생성에 미치는 독립적 영향을 검토하였다. 추가로 주요반응에 의한 CO의 몰 생성률 및 소모율과 CO의 반응경로 분석을 통해 환기부족 구획화재의 조건에서 구체적인 CO 생성특성에 관한 이해가 시도되었다.

For the purpose of development of an effective process for purified CHMI particles, a series of experimental researches on the synthesis of CHMI from CHMAIE, purification and precipitation of CHMI were preformed. It is turned out that n-heptane reflux imidation is more beneficial than toluene put-out imidation not only to the synthesis but to the precipitation of CHMI. By washing the synthetic CHMI with cold n-heptane twice, purified CHMI with 99.7% purity could be obtained at the cost of 11.7% weight loss. And CMHI particles were effectively prepared by spouting molten CHMI through the spiral nozzle with 3 mm diameter under the pressure of $1.5{\sim}2.0kg/cm^2$.

In this study, fire simulations on the under-ventilated compartment fires have been conducted using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS Ver. 5.2) and its prediction performance on the thermal and combustion chemical characteristics has been discussed. The temperature and chemical species concentrations in the upper layer of methane, heptane, and toluene fires located in a 2/5 scale compartment based on the ISO-9705 standard room are predicted and compared with the previously published experimental data. The results showed that the FDS simulations reproduced well the temperature of the ceiling and the mixture fraction in the upper layer under the well-ventilation conditions. For the under-ventilated fires, which were taken place due to the insufficient oxygen entrainment, the prediction by the FDS significantly under-estimated the production of carbon monoxide and soot compared to the experimental data.

Vapor liquid equilibria were measured for the binary systems of ditetrahydrofurfurylpropane (DTHFP) and some solvents such as cyclohexane, n-heptane, tetrahydrofuran, and water. Binary vapor liquid equilibria were measured for the diluted concentration range of DTHFP. NRTL model was used to analyze the measured data. With the experimental data, binary interaction parameters of the NRTL model were regressed.

Autoignition suppression of hydrogen/air premixed mixtures by $CF_3CHFCF_3(HFP)$ was investigated computationally. Numerical simulation was performed in isobaric and homogeneous system to evaluate the induction times. The detailed chemistry of 93 species and 817 reaction mechanism was introduced for hydrogen/air/HFP mixtures. The result of pure hydrogen/air mixture show that the resulting value of induction time depends relatively weakly on the definition used event though there are various criteria for defining the induction time such as the inflection of temperature, OH and $O_2$ concentrations generally. Also, the autoignition temperature of $H_2/air$ mixture is estimated to about 850K, which is corresponds to the literature value. In the case of HFP addition in $H_2/air$ mixture, the results shows that there are several inflection points of radical concentration, and hence it might be to use the temperature for defining ignition delay. When HFP is added to stoichiometric $H_2/air$ mixture, the effect of ignition delay is outstanding above 10% HFP concentration. As HFP concentration increases, both dilution and chemical effects contribute to delay the ignition. Also, the chemical effect on the ignition delay is more considerable with the higher HFP concentration.

In this study, a full scale experiment was carried out to analyze the heat and smoke movement. The experiment was conducted a kindergarten that is scheduled to reconstruction. The kindergarten is a two-story building and the area of each floor is 252 $m^2$. 36 l heptane was used as a fuel and heptane was burned in a 0.8 m square steel pool. Maximum heat release rate was 1.7 MW at natural condition. Smoke movement and temperature variation were measured during the experiment. In the first floor corridor, smoke was moved downward about 1.4 m at 1 minute after a fire. Corridor was filled with smoke at 4 minutes after a fire. In the second floor, temperature was maintained at $70^{\circ}C$ or less. But, second floor rooms were filled with smoke.
