Optimization of fluidized bed granulating conditions for yield, bulk density, and tapped density of powdered milk was determined using response surface methodology. Yield of powdered milk was greatly affected by feeding rate of water, and bulk density and tapped density could be reduced by decreasing of atomization pressure. The optimum conditions for fluidized bed granulating of powdered milk were predicted with 6$0^{\circ}C$ of inlet air temperature, 16 mL/min of feeding rate, and 2.1 bar of atomization pressure. Also 94% of yield 0.350 g/㎤ of bulk density, and 0.446 g/㎤ of tapped density of powdered milk could be obtained by the optimum granulating conditions.

A swirler with turbulence generator is designed and manufactured for generating many small-scale eddies in the combustor which contribute to enhancing mixing effect between fuel and air. The method results in not only the disadvantage of pressure loss but also the advantage of promoting combustion and reducing NOx. For the purpose of the study, four kinds of swirler with different turbulence generator area (0%, 3%, 7%, and 12% of reducing flow area) are designed to confirm the effect of mixing according the variation in the area of the turbulence generator. The mixing of combustor in the radial direction is significantly improved and the distributions of flames and temperature are well distributed throughout the cross section of a combustor as area of swirl generator is increased.

In this study, a cold aisle containment system was proposed among various strategies to reduce the energy waste by recirculation air from the hot aisle. To verify the effectiveness of the cold aisle containment system, a test bed which is similar to an actually existing server room was set up in the Internet Data Center(IDC) building. Comparative experiments, conventional open type cooling system and cold aisle containment system were carried out under actual conditions. The result revealed that the range of inlet temperature of the server system was $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$ in an existing cooling system and the range of inlet temperature dropped below $20^{\circ}C$ by the cold aisle containment system. After all, cold aisle containment system was proved to be the solution for energy saving cooling system.

This work treats a controlled auto-ignition (CAI) single cylinder gasoline engine, focusing on the extension of operating conditions. The fuel was injected indirectly into electrically heated inlet air flow. In order to keep a homogeneous air-fuel mixing, the fuel injector was water-cooled by a specially designed coolant passage. The engine performance and emission characteristics were investigated under the wide range of operating conditions such as 40 in the air-fuel ratio, 1000 to 1800 rpm in the engine speed, 150 to $180^{\circ}C$ in the inlet-air temperature, and $60^{\circ}$ BTDC in the injection timing. The ultra lean-burn with self-ignition of gasoline fuel by heating inlet air was achieved in a controlled auto-ignition gasoline engine. It could be also achieved that the emission concentrations of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide significantly reduced by CAI combustion compared with conventional spark ignition engines.

As a new concept in engines and a power source for future automotive applications, the HCCI(Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition) engine has been introduced. Essentially a combination of spark ignition and compression ignition engines, the HCCI engine exhibits low NO$_x$ and PM emissions as well as high efficiency under part load. In this research, a 4 cylinder diesel engine was converted into a HCCI engine, and propane was used as the fuel. The main parameters for this research are fuel flow rate and the temperature of the intake manifold, and the effects of such on a HCCI engine's performance and exhaust was investigated.

Environmental protection on the ocean has been interested and nowadays the International maritime organization(IMO) has advanced on the prevention of air pollution from ships. This study presents the emission characteristics of 4 stroke propulsion diesel engine in E2 cycle (constant speed) and E3 cycle (propeller curved speed). Also the effects of important operating parameters in terms of intake air pressure and temperature, and maximum combustion pressure are described on the specific emissions. Emissions measurement and calculation are processed according to IMO technical code. The results show that NOx emission level in E3 cycle is higher than E2 cycle due to lower engine speed and lower maximum combustion pressure by retarding fuel injection timing. Intake air temperature has strong influence on NOx emission production. And CO, HC emissions are not affected by maximum combustion pressure and intake air pressure and temperature.

Spark-ignition engine knock is affected by engine operating conditions such as engine speed, spark timing and intake air temperature. In this study the effect of intake air temperature on knock characteristics was studied experimentally using a 4-cylinder carburetor spark-ignition engine. The cylinder pressure data at 2000rpm were taken for intake air temperature range of $30^{\circ}C$ to $80^{\circ}C$ with $10^{\circ}C$ interval. And 80 consecutive cycles were taken at each experimental condition. As the same spark timing, as the intake air temperature increased by $50^{\circ}C$, the mean knock intensity increased about 20kPa. This effect corresponds to that of spark timing advance of 3 crank angle degrees.

Environmental protection on the ocean has been interested and nowadays the International Maritime Organization(IMO) has advanced on the prevention of air pollution from ships. This study presents the performance and the emission characteristics of 4 stroke marine diesel engines for generation application in D2 cycle(IMO mode). The effects of important operating parameters, such as intake air pressure. intake air temperature and maximum combustion pressure on NOx emissions were also described. Emissions measurement and calculation are processed according to IMO Technical Code. The results show that the maximum combustion pressure by fuel injection timing control and intake air temperature has strong influence on NOx emission production. But NOx emission is not affected by intake air pressure and exhaust gas back pressure.

내연기관의 성능은 실린더에서 연료의 화학에너지가 열에너지로 얼마만큼 빠르고 완전하게 변화하느냐에 좌우된다. 이를 위해서는 실린더 내에서 뜨거운 압축공기와 연료의 혼합 및 증기화가 요구된다. 엔진의 출력은 매 사이클당 흡입.압축할 수 있는 공기량에 좌우되므로 연소의 해석을 위해서는 실린더 내의 공기유동, 연료의 분무 및 연소과정을 이해 해야한다. 배기와 엔진효율의 요구성때문에 희박 혼합기 또는 EGR (exhaust gas recirculation)이 필요하게 된다. 그러나 희석이 크면 낮은 연소온도, 낮은 층류흐름속도와 화염전면의 낮은 난류강도 때문에 연소기간이 증대하게 된다. 실제로 희박의 증가는 실화 또는 긴 연소 지연기간, 사이클 마다의 연소맥동현상, HC배기의 증가등을 초래하게 된다. 이러한 저온연소의 단점들은 연소상태를 안정시키고 연소량을 증대시키는 공기의 유동을 이용해서 해결 될 수 있다. 최근에는 선회류와 난류의 강도를 증가시켜서 빠른연소(fast burning)를 이루고 있다. 선회류와 난류의 강도를 증대시키는 가장 중요한 2가지 방법은 흡입포트(port), 매니홀드(manifold)설계이다.

In this paper, we make a study of a thermal deformation by FEM and test to define the deformation mode of the Vacuum-Cleaner's Nozzle-Cover. In FEM analysis, 3 different conditions were considered separately, such as (1) Compressive force by Belt tension, (2) Friction heat between Belt and Shaft and (3) Compressive force combined with heat. Throughout FEM analysis it was found that the deformation was caused by heat and it was proved through a simulation test with a real product.
