To measure the traffic pollutants with high temporal and spatial resolution under real conditions, a mobile emission laboratory (MEL) was designed. The equipment of the mini-van provides gas phase measurements of CO, NOx, CO2 and THC (Total hydrocarbon), and number density & size distribution measurements of fine and ultra-fine particles by a fast mobility particle sizer (FMPS) and a condensation particle counter (CPC). The inlet sampling port above the bumper enables the chasing of different type of vehicles. This paper introduces the technical details of the MEL and presents data from the experiment in which a MEL chases a city bus fuelled by diesel, DME and Bio-diesel. The dilution ratio was calculated by the ratio of ambient NOx and tail-pipe NOx. Most particles from the bus fuelled by diesel were counted under 300 nm and the peak concentration of the particles was located between 30 and 60 nm. However, most particles in the exhaust of the bus fuelled by DME were nano-particles (diameter: less than 50 nm). The bus fuelled by Bio-diesel shows less particle emissions compare to diesel bus due to the presence of the oxygen in the fuel.

To measure the traffic pollutants with high temporal and spatial resolution under real conditions, a mobile emission laboratory (MEL) was designed. The equipment of the mini-van provides gas phase measurements of CO, NOx, $CO_2$, THC (Total hydrocarbon) and number density & size distribution measurements of fine and ultra-fine particles by a fast mobility particle sizer (FMPS) and a condensation particle counter (CPC). The inlet sampling port above the bumper enables the chasing of different type of vehicles. This paper introduces the technical details of the MEL and presents data from the car chasing experiment of diesel bus equipped with aftertreatment system. The dilution ratio was calculated by the ratio of ambient NOx and tail-pipe NOx. Most particles from the diesel bus were counted under 300 nm and the peak concentration of the particles was located between 30 and 60 nm. The total PM number emission from diesel bus equipped with DPF was 10 orders of magnitude lower compared to those emitted from base diesel bus. And the total PM number emission from diesel bus equipped with SCR was comparable to the particle emission from base diesel bus.

Objectives: Lung cancer occurred with worker working in an urban bus garage. A survey was conducted to investigate whether lung cancer had causal relationship with work. Exposure to asbestos and diesel engine exhaust were suspected. Methods: Airborne asbestos was sampled on membrane filter and analyzed using phase-contrast microscopy. Airborne diesel exhaust was sampled using quartz filter and analyzed with thermal-optical analyzer. Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons was sampled using PTFE filter and XAD-2 tube and analyzed with gas chromatography-mass selective detector. Results: Airborne asbestos concentration was under 0.01 fiber/cc. Worker who warmed up an engine of urban bus for 2 hours was exposed to elemental carbon concentration, $15.5{\mu}g/m^3$. Only naphtalene among polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons was detected. Conclusions: It was difficult to conclude about worker exposure to asbestos because working hour related asbestos was too short. In reviewing papers, the exposure to asbestos over 0.01 fiber/cc during exchange brake lining was found. It was identified that worker's occupational exposure to diesel exhaust based on elemental carbon was higher than the other occupational exposure to diesel exhaust.

CNG dual fuel engine for heavy duty diesel engine developed by AFS International in Canada has been equipped to a Korean city bus engine and tested to compare the engine performance and the emission characteristics with the existing diesel fueled engine. Also the dual-fuel engine was applied to the city bus for road test. The results are summarized as follows. Performance optimization has been carried out to have engine power equivalent to or better than the diesel fueled engine. Smoke is decreased by 85% by Korean smoke 3 mode test. By 13 mode test CO is increased by 453% and THC is increased by 2, 086%. NOx is decreased by 7% in laboratory. D-13 test mode was changed in 1996 Korean regulation. Even though THC is increased very much, it's not too serious problem since CO and HC emission of diesel engine is very little compared to gasoline engine and more than 75% of THC is CH$_4$. But the reduction technologies of CO and HC has to be considered.

Emission from road traffic is one of the major sources of air pollution, and provides some undesirable effects on the atmspheric environment and human health. In the city of Seoul, the higher portion of diesel vehicles runs compared with that of other countries. Emission from the diesel vehicles is much higher than that of other vehicles. In this study, the driving pattern of city-bus in Seoul is investigated through on-road vehicle test and compared with the test modes of other countries in order to examine appropriateness of the present test mode that is taken in our country.

압축 천연가스에 수소를 혼합한 HCNG 연료를 사용하는 HCNG 버스에 대해 WHVC 차량시험 결과를 토대로 연료 경제성 및 $CO_2$ 배출특성을 분석하였다. 동급 CNG 버스 및 디젤버스 시험결과와 비교하여 HCNG 버스의 연비 개선효과와 $CO_2$ 저감효과를 고찰하였다. $CO_2$ 배출특성은 탄소배출계수에 따른 연료효과와 연비에 의한 효과로 분석하였다. 분석결과 HCNG 버스는 CNG 버스 보다 연비는 11.5% 개선되었고 디젤버스와는 동등수준을 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 $CO_2$ 배출 특성으로 HCNG 버스는 CNG 버스에 비해 20.4% 개선효과가 있고 디젤버스에 비해 34.5% 향상되는 것으로 분석되었다. 이산화탄소 배출특성은 연료성분에 따른 탄소배출계수와 엔진성능에 따른 연비에 영향을 받는 것으로 귀결되었다.

대형 디젤엔진은 주행거리가 길고 배기량이 크기 때문에 차량의 대수는 상대적으로 적지만 대기환경에 미치는 영향은 크다. 시내를 주행하는 시내버스의 경우 한일 월드컵을 계기로 CNG 버스로 전환되었다. 그러나 대형트럭과 장거리 시외버스의 경우 주행거리가 길고 CNG 충전소가 대도시의 시내버스 차고지 위주로 설치되어 있어 이용이 불가능하였다. 단열용기의 적용으로 천연가스를 압축상태가 아닌 액체 상태로 보관이 가능해져 주행거리가 긴 대형트럭이나 장거리 시외버스로의 적용이 가능해졌으며, 혼소엔진의 경우 LNG 충전이 어려운 지역에서는 디젤로 운행이 가능하다. 이와 같은 장점으로 인하여 석유 의존도를 크게 낮출 수 있어 에너지원의 다변화가 가능하며, 디젤차의 고질적인 단점으로 여겨왔던 매연 및 질소산화물뿐만 아니라 저탄소 연료를 사용함으로서 대표적인 온실가스중의 하나인 이산화탄소도 10%이상 저감할 수 있었다.

The emissions of several air pollutants ($NO_x$, CO, VOCs, etc.) for the replacement of all diesel buses by Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses were estimated in the Busan Metropolitan Area (BMA). These emissions were calculated from emission factors considering the different driving speeds with bus routes, distance traveled, and deterioration factors. For the purpose of this study, three categories of fuel type were selected: (1) the combination of diesel (65%) and CNG buses (35%) (DSL+CNG case), (2) all diesel buses (DSL case), and (3) all CNG buses (CNG case). The emissions of $NO_x$ and CO in the CNG case were estimated to be significant decreases (by about 50% and 98%, respectively) relative to the DSL case. Conversely, the emission of VOCs (980.7 ton/year) in the CNG case were a factor of 3.3 higher than that (299.8 ton/year) in the DSL case. In addition, the diurnal variations of emissions between two city buses (e.g. diesel and CNG) and all other vehicles were distinctly different because the two city buses operate at a regular time interval. Our overall results suggest the possibility that the pollutant emissions from the CNG buses can exert less influence on air quality in the target area than those from the diesel buses.

본 연구에서는 대형버스 배기가스 테스트 모드인 JE-05 에서 DME와 디젤을 연료로 사용하는 대형 DME버스를 차대동력계, 배기가스 분석기 그리고 PM 측정시스템을 이용하여 대형 DME버스의 연비, 배기가 스특성 그리고 동적 특성에 대해 알아보았다. 대형 DME버스에는 6기통 8,071cc 디젤엔진이 장착되었으며, 현재 운행되고 있는 상용 디젤버스와는 달리 DOC, DPF와 같은 후처리 장치가 없다. 실험 결과, 각 부하에 따른 차량의 속도를 통하여 차량의 동적 특성은 DME와 디젤을 사용했을 때 거의 비슷한 것을 알 수 있었다. NOx, CO와 THC는 DME를 연료로 사용 시 디젤연료에 비해 더 적게 배출되는 것을 확인하였다. 하지만 PM은 DME연료를 사용 시 거의 발생하지 않았는데, 이는 DME가 함산소연료이고 분자구조상 탄소-탄소 결합이 없기 때문이라고 생각된다. $CO_2$는 각 연료 사용 시 비슷하게 발생하였으며, 저위발열량 베이스로 계산된 연비는 DME연료 사용 시 디젤연료보다 약 6.7% 더 낮게 나왔다.

Generally generator is connected to the bus with no load. After the connection to the bus. the frequency of generator system with no load has to be increased for preventing the reverse power. But in a few case of parallel running with infinite bus system, we have to synchronize the loaded generator to the infinite bus. The frequency of generator system with load has to be lowered for prevention of load shift to the bus system. The blackout of infinite bus decreases the parallel running generator's frequency because of load increasing. In this paper we propose a method that the generator with load maintains the frequency constantly after the blackout of infinite bus. With the constant speed control and load control method of parallel running system to the infinite bus we apply the method to the industrial generating system.
