The effects of water injection (WI) and urea injection for NOx on a 4-cylinder Direct Injection (DI) diesel engine were investigated experimentally. For water injection, it was installed at the intake pipe and the water quantity was controlled at the intake manifold and Manifold Air Flow (MAF) temperatures while the urea injection was located at the exhaust pipe and the urea quantity was controlled by NOx quantity and MAF. The effects of WI system, urea-SCR system and the combined system were investigated with and without exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). Several experiments were performed to characterize the urea-SCR system, using engine operating points of varying raw NOx emissions. The results of the Stoichiometric Urea Flow (SUF) and NOx map were obtained. In addition, NOx results were illustrated according to the engine speed and load. It is concluded that the NOx reduction effects of the combined system without the EGR were better than those with the EGR-based engine.

A cylindrical constant volume combustion bomb is used to investigate the combustion characteristics and to analyzer the heat quantity of inhomogeneous charge methane-air mixture. To analyze the heat quantity, some definitions including the CHR ratio, the UHC ratio and the HL ratio are needed and are calculated. It is shown that the effect of stratification is not significant in case of the overall excess air ratio of 1.1, mainly due to the higher heat loss and lower thermal efficiency compared to those of homogeneous condition. In the case of the overall excess air ratio of 1.4, as the initial charge pressure decreases, the CHR ratio has been decreased while the HL ratio has been increased, Generally, as the initial charge pressure increases, the amount of injection mixture has been decreased and has resulted in lower mean velocity and turbulence intensity for injection mixture. Also, the injected mixture is too rich to result in mixing deficiency in combustion chamber. From these results, it could be possible to acquire the improvement of thermal efficiency and the reduction of heat loss simultaneously through the 2-stage injection in CNG direct injection engine.

본 연구는 공기주입에 의한 고형 폐기물의 빠른 안정화를 달성할 수 있는 매립지의 호기성 공정을 평가하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 실험은 매립지에서 최적의 공기주입방법을 평가하기 위해 선별토사를 충전한 4개의 모의 매립조(혐기성, 1PV(pore volume/day)공기주입, 5PV 공기주입, 10PV 공기주입)를 운영하였다. 선별토사를 충전한 bioreactor를 호기성으로 운전한 경우에 공기를 주입하지 않은 bioreactor에 비해 유기물 분해가 뛰어난 것으로 나타났다. 매립가스의 발생량 및 조성변화와 soil respiration test 결과로부터 5 PV/day으로 공기를 주입한 bioreactor가 유기물 분해율이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다.

The effects of an urea injection at the exhaust pipe for a 4-cylinder DI(Direct Injection) diesel engine were investigated with the parameters such as urea-SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) and EGR system. The urea quantity was controlled by NOx quantity and MAF(Manifold Air Flow). The urea injection quantity can be controlled with the urea syringe pump, precisely. The effects of NOx reduction for the urea-SCR system were investigated with and without ECR engine, respectively. It was concluded that the SUF(Stoichiometric Urea Flow) is calculated and the NOx results are visualized with engine speed and load. Furthermore, the NOx map is made from this experimental results. It was suggested, therefore, that NOx reduction effects of the urea-SCR system without the EGR engine were better than that with the EGR engine except of low load and low speed.

Smoke is emitted in diesel engines because fuel injected into the high-temperatured and high-pressured combustion chamber burns with its mixture with insufficient oxygeny. In consideration of air pollution, above all, it is necessary to illuminate the cause of smoke emission in diesel engines. The smoke emission, which is characteristic of diffusion combustion in diesel engines, results from pyrolysis of fuel not mixed with air. Therefore the smoke emission is dependent on diffusion combustion quantity, which is in turn controlled by engine parameter. The study aims at making clear and interpreting the interdependence of smoke emission in diesel engines with heat released within combustion chamber, camparing diffusion combustion quantity according to each engine parameter (air fuel ratio, injection timing, and engine speed), and showing the relation between smoke emission and fraction of diffusion combustion through experiment.

A Study on the optimal design of the AIG(Ammonia Injection Grid) to improve the performance of DeNOx facilities in the HRSG(Heat Recovery Steam Generator) was performed using the CFD analysis. On the basis of the flow analysis results in the case that the AIG in the HRSG was not installed, the numerical analyses according to the positions of AIG, injection angles of nozzle and the control of ammonia injection quantity were carried out. The standard deviation according to factors was calculated for quantitative comparison. As the results, the AIG in the HRSG should be installed in the position that the uniform flow field shows through the exact flow analysis in the previous of the AIG design and installation. In the case the AIG has already been installed and non uniform flow distribution shows, it is recommended that flow correction device or KoNOx catalyst should be used. Otherwise, the control of ammonia injection angle or the ammonia injection quantity using the velocity profile analysis is demanded to accomplish the optimal performance.

This paper deals with a study on combustion and emission characteristics of a direct injection diesel engine dual fueled with natural gas. Dual fuelling systems tend to emit high unburned fuel especially at low load, resulting in a decreased thermal efficiency. This is because natural gas-air mixtures are too lean for flame to propagate under low load conditions. Suction air quantity and injection timing controls are very useful to improve emissions and thermal efficiency at low load.

The effects of an urae injection at the exhaust pipe for a 4-cylinder DI(Direct Injection) diesel engine are investigated experimentally. The urea quantity was controlled by NOx quantity and MAF(Manifold Air Flow). The urea injection must be precisely metered and then I used the urea syringe pump. I have tested 4 kinds of items that were with the EGR base engine and without the EGR engine. Then I tested each urea-SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) system. As the results, I can caculate the SUF(Stoichiometric Urea Flow) and visualize the NOx results by variation of engine speed and engine load. Also, I can make the NOx map. Therfore, I knew that NOx reduction effects of the urea-SCR system without the EGR engine were better than the with EGR base engine except of low load and low speed.

In a SI engine, three-way catalyst converter has the best efficiency when A/F ratio is near the stoichiometry. The feedback control using oxygen sensors in the commercial engine has limits caused by the system delays. So it is necessary to control fuel quantity in accordance with intake air amount in order to reduce exhaust emission and improve the specific fuel consumption. Precise A/F ratio control requires measurement of air amount with respect to the cylinder and injection fuel according to the air amount In this paper, we applied nonlinear fuel injection model and developed the algorithm of A/F ratio control. This algorithm includes the methods of measurement of transient air mass flowing into each cylinder, of calculation of injection pulse width for measured air mass, and the method of feedback and engine control by using lambda sensor. Also we developed control program for IBM-PC by using C++ Builder, and tested it in the commercial engine.

This study shows the correlation between $NO_x$ emission in the exhaust gas and various operation factors of dual fuel engine for Co-generation system. General tendency was shown that the thermal efficiency was lowered by the change of operation factors. However these were not confirmed on this experiment. Increasing T4 temperature (exhaust gas temperature at turbo-charger inlet) reduces $NO_x$ emission rate. The higher T4 temperature requires lower excess air as the excess air ratio is controlled by T4 temperature on gas mode operation. Another tendency was that $NO_x$ emission rate is reduced in case of increasing boost air temperature, quantity of pilot oil or bypassing flue gas through the exhaust gas boiler. The diameter of the fuel injection nozzle was changed smaller than design value and the injection timing was readjusted. Thus $NO_x$ emission rate could be reduced as retarding injection timing and changing hole diameter of fuel injection nozzle, however maxium engine out-put was decreased by changing fuel nozzle on the diesel mode operation.
