This research investigated spray characteristics using LPG fuel under compression ignition to contribute to develop a high efficiency LPG fuel is an environmentally-friendly fuel since it emits lower $CO_2$ compare to other conventional fuels. In order to observe spray process, a high speed digital camera and high pressure common-rail injector were applied. Using the spray behaviors of LPG and diesel fuel from the experiment, this research analyzed the mixing process of air-fuel mixture numerically with FLUENT 6.3 when LPG and diesel fuel injected directly into the cylinder while compression stroke occurs. Spray characteristics of LPG fuel was investigated by using numerical method, in which KH-RT model was adapted for phase change. As a result of numerical analysis, this work found out that LPG spray has a wider mixing formation and uniform diffusion of air-fuel mixture compare to diesel.

A mixture preparation strategy was proposed and evaluated in a diesel-natural gas dual-fuel engine to reduce hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions under low load conditions. An experimental investigation was conducted in a single-cylinder compression-ignition engine. Natural gas was supplied with air during the intake stroke, and diesel was injected directly into the combustion chamber during the compression stroke. First, effects of diesel start of energizing (SOE) and natural gas substitution ratio on the combustion and exhaust gas emissions were analyzed. Based on the results, the mixture preparation strategy was established. A low natural gas substitution ratio and a high exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rate were effective in reducing the HC and CO emissions.

The main purpose of the study is to investigate the ideal manner and ratio to inject gasoline and DME simultaneously into intake port, and moreover to confirm the characteristics of combustion and emission of engine. Experimental conditions are 1200 rpm, compression ratio 8.5, intake air temperature (383 K). Internal cylinder pressure was collected to confirm the characteristics of combustion in order to calculate the heat release rate in the cylinder. In addition, HORIBA (MEXA 7100) which was possible analyzing emissions (NOx, CO, HC) was used. Vanguard gasoline engine (23HP386447) was used in this experiment. The result show that fuel design (DME-Gasoline) leads to the decrease of low temperature heat release, which is a benefit for higher-load on the HCCI engine. Also, IMEP and the indicated thermal efficiency increase with combustion-phasing retard, and these observations can be explained by considering the control of low temperature oxidation of DME.

The HCCI combustion mode poses its own set of narrow engine operating by knocking. In order to solve this, inhomogeneity method of mixture and temperature is suggested. The purpose of this research is to get fundamental knowledge about the effect of thermal stratification on HCCI combustion of PRF -Air mixture. The temperature stratification is made by buoyancy effect in combustion chamber of RCM. The analysis items are pressure, temperature of in-cylinder gas and combustion duration. In addition, the structure of flames using the two dimensional chemiluminescence's images by a framing camera are analyzed. Under stratification, the LTR starting time and the HTR starting time are advanced than that of homogeneous. Further, the LTR period of homogeneous conditions became shorter than that of the stratified conditions. With the case of homogeneous condition, the luminosity duration becomes shorter than the case of stratified condition. Additionally, under stratified condition, the brightest luminosity intensity is delayed longer than at homogeneous condition.

세탄가는 경유의 품질기준 중 하나로써 디젤엔진에 사용되는 경유 연료의 착화성을 평가하는 항목이다. 세탄가 기준은 현재 자동차용 경유 기준으로 52 이상이며, 일반적으로 세탄가가 높으면 시동성이 좋고 운전이 원활해지나 지나치게 높으면 연소가 불균일해져 매연의 원인이 되고 연료소비량이 증가한다. 현재 국내의 품질시험방법에 규정되어있는 세탄가 측정방법은 CFR엔진을 이용한 세탄가분석, 경유의 밀도와 증류유출온도를 통하여 세탄가를 산출하는 세탄지수, CFR엔진의 단점을 보완하여 고온에서 연료의 연소되는 시간을 통해 세탄가를 측정하는 유도세탄가 등이 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 세탄가를 정유사별, 하 동절기별 시료를 확보하고 이를 분석하여 다양한 인자들에 의한 세탄가 측정방법의 상관관계에 대하여 분석하였다. 이를 통하여 세탄가, 유도세탄가, 세탄지수 순으로 세탄가가 높게 측정 되는 것을 확인하였고, 이를 통하여, 현재 편의성을 이유로 많이 사용되는 세탄지수로 인하여 세탄가 품질미달이 발생할 수 있기 때문에 이에 대한 추가 연구가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

HCCI 엔진연소에서 열적성층화 효과는 노킹을 회피하는 수단으로서 생각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 DME 와 n-Butane 을 연료로 하는 HCCI 엔진연소의 열적성층화 효과를 조사하였다. 예혼합기가 연소실내부에 투입되고 부력의 효과를 이용하여 연소실 내부에 열적성층화를 형성한다. 그 뒤에 피스톤의 압축에 의해서 단열압축 시킨 후 연소실압력과 2 차원화학발광법을 계측하여 해석하였다. 열적성층화가 존재하는 경우에는, 저온산화반응과 고온산화반응의 시작시기가 균질한 경우에 비해서 진각되었고 연소기간은 길어졌다. 발광의 시작은 온도가 높은 곳에서부터 시작하여 온도가 낮은 곳으로 전파 되는 것을 확인하였고 발광기간도 길어짐을 확인하였다.

The Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition(HCCI) combustion is currently under intensive investigation because of its potential to increase thermal efficiency while greatly decreasing NOx and p.M. In order to account for the thermal boundary layer effects, the two-zone model has been developed to analyze the combustion characteristics of HCCI engine. The detailed chemistry are represented by the GRI mechanism 3.0 involving 53 species and 325reactions. The present combustion model has been validated against the experimental results. Computations are also made for the wide-range operating conditions of HCCI engine.

A linear generator driven by a hydrogen combustion engine has been developed. Unlike rotary engine-generator systems, the linear counterpart is inherently unable to start by itself unless external force is provided for initial compression/ignition cycle. When the generator is connected to utility power lines through a bidirectional power conversion system, however, the self start-up can be done by driving the generator as a motor. This paper introduces a prototype 1kW linear hydrogen engine-generator system being developed and shows the self start-up is possible with proper motoring mode.

In this paper, we present the theoretical and numerical results of scavenge characteristics in a small prechamber of an HCCI(Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition) engine. Two theoretical models are proposed in prediction of the scavenge time and the efficiency ; one is the non-mixing models in which it is assumed that the input gas($CH_{4}$) and the existing gas(air) do not mix with each other, and the other is the fully-mixed model in which the two gases are assumed to mix completely before ejecting to the ambient air. Focus is also given to the effect on the scavenge performance of the size of the chamber oulet.

본 논문에서는 Indolene-MPHA(Methanol Plus High Alcohols)가 엔진성능에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구가 이루어졌다. 본 연구에서는 연료의 성능 인자를 측정하였다. 특히 연료의 성능 인자들인 MBT 점화 시기, 출력, 열효율 등이 측정되었다. 여기에서 알콜 농도는 청정 Indolene의 체적에 따라서 0∼100%까지 변화시켰다. 연료의 성능 인자들은 서로 다른 압축비에서 단기통 스파크점화 엔진을 사용하여 측정하였다. 성능 측정결과에 따르면 Indolene-MPHA 혼합물이 Indolene-Methanol 혼합물보다 빠른 MBT 점화 시기와 유사한 출력 그리고 낮은 열효율을 나타내고 있음을 알 수 있다.
