DPF(Diesel Particulate Filter)s have been used to reduce the most of PM(particulate matters) from the exhaust emissions of diesel engine vehicles. Metal foam is one of promising materials for the DPFs due to its cost effectiveness, good thermal conductivity and high mechanical strength. It can be fabricated with various pore sizes and struct thickness and coated with catalytic wash-coats with low cost. In order to design metal foam filter and analyze the flow phenomena, pressure drop and filtration experiment are carried out. Partial DPF which has PM reduction efficiency of more than 50 % is designed in this paper. Also, CFD analysis are performed for different configurations of clean filters in terms of pressure drop, uniformity index, and velocity magnitude at face of filter. Filter thickness and the gap between front and rear filters are optimized and recommended for manufacturing purpose.

In-use light duty diesel vehicles are considered as one of major sources of particulate emissions in many cities, and the start of the retrofit program for the light duty diesel vehicles is expected in near future in Korea. One of the problems of the retrofit of the light duty diesel vehicles is that the exhaust gas temperature is too low to apply passive regeneration DPF systems. This study introduces a catalytic combustor as a new active DPF regeneration technology. This study shows the principle and characteristics of DPF regeneration by the catalytic combustor and suggests it's proper control method for better regeneration.

Thermal regeneration means burning-off and cleaning-up the particulate matters piled up in DPF(diesel particulate filter), and it requires both high temperature $(550\~600^{\circ}C)$ and appropriate concentration of oxygen at DPF entrance. However, it is not easy to satisfy such conditions because of the low temperature window of the HSDI(high speed direct injection) diesel engine(approximately $200\~350^{\circ}C$ at cycle). Therefore, this study is focused on the method to raise temperature using the trade-off relation between temperature, oxygen concentration, and the influence of many parameters of common rail injection system including post injection. After performing an optimal mapping of the common rail parameters for regeneration mode, the actual cleaning process during regeneration mode is investigated and evaluated the availability of the regeneration mode mapping through regenerating soot trapped in the DPF.

Diesel particulate trap is a core technology for the reduction of PM from diesel vehicles This study presents the features and the characteristics of DPF system when using pellet type filters. In comparison with wall-flow filter, the pellet filter has the advantages of cracking free during regeneration and shape flexibility. Experiments are conducted in a test bench simulated as diesel engine exhaust condition. Pressure drop and particle loading rate was compared by using two pellet filters having the porosity of 70% and 0%. Also its regeneration was tested.

비도로 차량용 디젤엔진의 Tier 4 interim 규제를 만족하기 위하여 입자상물질과 질소산화물 배출량은 현행 규제 대비 각각 95%, 30% 저감되어야 하며, 입자상 물질을 저감하기위한 방법으로 디젤산화촉매, 부분유량 매연 여과장치 및 매연여과장치가 비도로 차량용 디젤엔진에 적용될 수 있다. 또한 질소산화물을 저감하기위해 배기가스 재순환방법, 선택적 환원촉매와 희박 질소산화물 포집장치 등이 적용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 56kW급 off-road 차량에서의 입자상물질과 질소산화물을 저감하기위해 매연여과장치와 고압루프 배기가스재순환 시스템이 연구되었다. 실험결과로서 디젤산화촉매와 매연여과장치는 입자상물질을 저감하는데 매우 효과적이었으며 낮은 배압과 함께 출력손실도 5%이내였다. 고압루프 배기가스재순환을 적용한 결과 중 저부하 조건에서 효과적으로 질소산화물을 저감하였으며 배기가스재순환율이 높을수록 질소산화물의 저감율도 증가하였다.

Application of an electric heater is one of attractive methods for active regeneration in DPF systems, but its application has been limited by the capacity of electric power available in vehicles. This study was focused on intake throttling to reduce electrical energy required in the electrical heated DPF system. As results, this study showed the decrease of $30\~50\%$ of intake air mass flow rate and the increase of $20\~60^{\circ}C$ of exhaust gas temperature by the proper control of intake throttling. These intake throttling effects was helpful for regenerable temperature achievement.

본 연구는 승용 디젤엔진의 입자상 물질 배출특성에 관한 것으로써, 엔진에서 배출된 입자상 물질이 배기관 및 후처리장치인 디젤산화촉매와 매연여과장치를 통과할 때의 특성 변화를 파악하기 위하여 후처리장치 각각 전 후단 및 배기관에서 직접 측정하였다. 또한 다양한 엔진회전속도 및 부하조건에서 측정함으로써 입자상 물질 배출 맵을 구축하였으며, 디젤산화촉매 및 매연여과장치의 입자상 물질 저감효과에 대해 평가하였다. 뿐만 아니라 배기재순환율과 연료분사시기를 변경시켜 입자상 물질의 배출특성 변화를 파악하였다. 모든 시험에서 입자상 물질을 5~1000nm 크기까지 측정할 수 있는 DMS500을 이용하였다.

경유자동차는 연료 특성상 매연을 포함한 입자상물질을 다량 배출하고 있으며, 이러한 디젤입자상물질은 인체에 유해한 발암성 및 돌연변이원성 물질들을 함유하고 있기 때문에 호흡 등을 통한 인체 유입시 건강에 매우 유해하다. 그러므로 디젤입자상물질을 저감시키기 위한 여러 가지 기술들 중 발생된 배출가스가 배기관을 통해 대기중으로 배출되기 전에 엔진 연소실과 배기관 사이에 후처리장치와 같은 기술들을 이용하여 이를 저감시키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 후처리장치들 중 세라믹필터에 백금과 같은 산화성이 우수한 촉매를 코팅하여 만든 촉매식 매연여과장치(DPF ; diesel particulate filter, SK제공)를 사용하였을 때 입자저감성능 및 입자크기별 분포특성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 통해 도시대기오염 저감대책을 기초자료 및 환경학적, 보건학적 연구에 적극 활용하고자 한다.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) with diesel particulate filter(DPF) on heavy duty diesel engine. The exhaust gas was recirculated to the intake manifold after the smoke was eliminated in the DPF, The major conclusions of this research are i)at each engine speed EGR ratio was able to 60% maximum ii) the amount of NOx emissions was decreased to 90% at high engine load and to more than 60% at low engine load and iii) the amout of NOx emissions was increased to five times according to the increase of engine load but the effect of EGR is more effective at high engine load.
