공간적 화염전파에 대한 실험적인 파악을 통하여 오토엔진에서의 연소과정과 진행을 위한 깊은 통찰을 할 수 있다. 그것을 통하면 매우 희박한 공기, 연료 혼합기의 경우 실린더에서 직접소염 과정을 확인할 수도 있고 hydrocarbon의 불완전 연소와 나타나는 qunching zone간의 관계를 조사할 수도 있다. 광전도 섬유기술(Lichtleit-fasertechnik)을 사용하여 새로 개발된 측정방법을 이용하여 단기통 오토엔진에서 화염면의 공간적인 전파과정과 매우 희박한 공기 연료 혼합기 에서의 quench zone의 출현을 조사하였다. 측정결과들은 공기연료 혼합기가 희박해 질수록 화 염전파 과정이 점점 느려지는 것을 보여준다. 아주 높은 공기 과잉율을 갖는 엔진 운전에서는 화염속도와 연소속도가 매우 급하게 감소한다. 그리하여 화염면은 팽창 단계에서 상대적으로 증가하는 피스톤속도 때문에 더이상 피스톤을 따를 수가 없으며 그로 인해 직접 피스톤상부에 소염대가 형성된다. 그에 의해 배기가스에서의 hydrocarbon 방출의 급격한 증가와 효율이 급격히 감소하는 엔진 운전과 관련이 지어진다.

Mixture formation in the cylinder of a lean bum engine has been observed by Laser Induced Fluorescence technique. XeCl laser (308nm) was used to produce a laser sheet. 3-pentanone has been added to iso-octane fuel to produce fluorescence, the intensity of which is proportional to the concentration of the fuel. The laser sheet was introduced through the piston window and the fuel distribution in the vertical plane was observed through a side window. Comparison has been made for the cases of selected fuel injection timing as 0, 360, 405, and 450 CA. For the case of 0 and 360 CA injection, uniform fuel distribution in the combustion chamber has been obtained at the ignition time which is favorable for the high load mode. And the late injection cases, 405 and 450 CA, revealed the stratified formation of rich mixture around the spark plug. That extends the lean misfire limit and reduces cyclic variation in the low load mode.

This paper describes the effect of air assisted fuel injection system(AAI) using compressed air to improve the performance of lean combustion engine. AAI is designed to promote fuel atomization and intake flow. In order to investigate the performance of engine with AAl, experiments are conducted varying the engine revolution speed, lean air-fuel ratio and intake manifold pressure. Compared with the original engine, the performance of the engine with MI is improved as the air-fuel mixture becomes leaner or the engine load becomes lower. The descreasing rate of BSFC is propotional to the relative air-fuel ratio and the lean misfire limit extended more than 0.2 relative airfuel ratio.

The KrF laser was employed to study NO fluorescence in lean-bum as well as in soot-bum flames. Blue-shifted NO fluorescence was observed in both of the flames. For both of the flames, the fluorescence intensity of NO and its relative background noise signal were measured with respect to the concentration of seeded NO molecule in the flame and the laser intensity. The results were analyzed qualitatively. Also, NO concentration distribution in the lean-bum flame was qualitatively determined from the intensity of the NO fluorescence. cence.

이차원 노즐을 통하여 저밀도 환경으로 팽창하는 희박류의 분석에 있어서 불연속좌표법과 결합된 유한차분법(finite-difference method coupled with the discrete-ordinate method, FDDO)과 직접모사법(direct-simulation Monte-Carlo method, DSMC)이 비교되었다. FDDO를 이용한 분석에서는 충돌적분모델을 도입하여 간단해진 볼츠만식(Boltzmann equation)이 불연속좌표법을 이용하여 물리적 공간에서는 연속이나 분자속도 공간에서는 불연속좌표로 표시되는 편미분방정식군으로 변환되어 유한차분법에의하여 수치해석 되었다. 직접모사법에서는 분자모델로 가변강구모델(variable hard sphere model, VHS)이, 충돌샘플링모델로는 비시계수법(no time counter method, NTC)이 채택되었다. 전혀 다른 두 가지 방법에 의한 노즐 내부에서의 유체흐름 해석결과는 매우 잘 일치하였으며, 노즐 외부의 plume 영역에서는 FDDO에 의한 해석결과가 직접모사법에 의한 해석결과에 비하여 약간 느린 팽창을 보였다.

Gas flow characteristics within the cylinder is important factors in impoving lean combustion stability. This paper shows the effects of various flow fields generated by a swirl control valve(SCV) on combustion process in a 4-valve spark ignition engine. An impulse swirl/tumble meter was used to elucidation the steady-state flow characteristics, and a rotating grating type LDV was developed to measure the mean velocity and tunbulence intensity in relation to the crank angle. These methodologies were applied to clarify the correlation between gas flow characteristics and combustion stability at a lean air fuel ratio. An analysis of the correlation revealed the gas flow conditions required to optimize a lean-burn system.

Enhancement of the ignitability was necessary to realize the lean burn engine. The characteristics of multiple-spark capacitor discharge igniter(MSCDI) usefulness of which for lean burn was examined in constant volume combustion chamber and evaluated in spark ignition engine. Noise of MSCDI for engine was restricted by adoption of low voltage control system. It was found that the adaptability for high engine speed was remarkable. Lean limit in engine with MSCDI was extended 10% than conventional coil ignition system. Also maximum brake thermal efficiency was almost enhanced 1%.

Human visual system has chromatic adaptation to determine the color of an object regardless of illumination, whereas digital camera records illumination and reflectance together, giving the color appearance of the scene varied under different illumination. NMFsc(nonnegative matrix factorization with sparseness constraint) was recently introduced to estimate original object color by using sparseness constraint. In NMFsc, low sparseness constraint is used to estimate illumination and high sparseness constraint is used to estimate reflectance. However, NMFsc has an illumination estimation error for images with large uniform area, which is considered as dominant chromaticity. To overcome the defects of NMFsc, illumination estimation via nonnegative matrix factorization with dominant chromaticity image is proposed. First, image is converted to chromaticity color space and analyzed by chromaticity histogram. Chromaticity histogram segments the original image into similar chromaticity images. A segmented region with the lowest standard deviation is determined as dominant chromaticity region. Next, dominant chromaticity is removed in the original image. Then, illumination estimation using nonnegative matrix factorization is performed on the image without dominant chromaticity. To evaluate the proposed method, experimental results are analyzed by average angular error in the real world dataset and it has shown that the proposed method with 5.5 average angular error achieve better illuminant estimation over the previous method with 5.7 average angular error.

Nowadays, automotive manufacturers have developed various technologies to improve fuel economy and reduce harmful emissions. The ultra-lean direct injection engine is a promising technology because it has the advantage of improving thermal efficiency through the deliberate control of fuel and ignition. This study aims to investigate the development of a spray-guided-type lean-burn LPG direct injection engine through the redesign of the combustion system. This engine uses a central-injection-type cylinder head in which the injector is installed adjacent to the spark plug. Fuel consumption and combustion stability were estimated depending on the ignition timing and injection timing at various air-fuel ratios. The optimal injection timing and ignition timing were based on the best fuel consumption and combustion stability.
