자동차배출가스는 이산화탄소($CO_2$)에 의한 지구온난화 및 탄화수소(HC)와 질소산화물($NO_x$)에 의한 오존 생성을 야기하는 등, 인체와 환경에 나쁜 영향을 미치기 때문에 이에 대한 관심이 증폭되고 있다. 가솔린 직접분사 (Gasoline Direct Injection; GDI)엔진은 디젤엔진과 같이 연소실내에 연료를 직접 공급하는 방식으로서 가솔린엔진의 취약점으로 지적되어 오던 높은 연료소비율 문제를 획기적으로 개선할 수 있는 기술로 평가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분무유도방식(Spray-guided type)의 GDI엔진을 이용하여 공기과잉률 2.0 이상의 초희박 연소를 통해 연료소비율을 개선하였다. 추가적인 연료소비율 개선 및 배출가스 저감을 위해 희박연소시 다단 분사전략과 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)을 적용하였다. 배출가스 수준과 운전성능을 평가하고 이를 배출가스 규제와 비교 검토함으로써 국내 관련기술 개발 방향 및 상용화 가능성에 대해 검토하고자 하였다.

This paper investigates the steady-state combustion characteristics of the Homogeneous charge compression ignition(HCCI) engine with variable valve timing(VVT) and dimethyl ether(DME) direct injection, to find out its benefits in exhaust gas emissions. HCCI combustion is an attractive way to lower carbon dioxide($CO_2$), nitrogen oxides(NOx) emission and to allow higher fuel conversion efficiency. However, HCCI engine has inherent problem of narrow operating range at high load due to high in-cylinder peak pressure and consequent noise. To overcome this problem, the control of combustion start and heat release rate is required. It is difficult to control the start of combustion because HCCI combustion phase is closely linked to chemical reaction during a compression stroke. The combination of VVT and DME direct injection was chosen as the most promising strategy to control the HCCI combustion phase in this study. Regular gasoline was injected at intake port as main fuel, while small amount of DME was also injected directly into the cylinder as an ignition promoter for the control of ignition timing. Different intake valve timings were tested for combustion phase control. Regular gasoline was tested for HCCI operation and emission characteristics with various engine conditions. With HCCI operation, ignition delay and rapid burning angle were successfully controlled by the amount of internal EGR that was determined with VVT. For best IMEP and low HC emission, DME should be injected during early compression stroke. IMEP was mainly affected by the DME injection timing, and quantities of fuel DME and gasoline. HC emission was mainly affected by both the amount of gasoline and the DME injection timing. NOx emission was lower than conventional SI engine at gasoline lean region. However, NOx emission was similar to that in the conventional SI engine at gasoline rich region. CO emission was affected by the amount of gasoline and DME.

본 연구에서는 중형 직분식 선박용 엔진의 성능 및 NOx 배출물 예측을 위한 0-D multi-zone 분무 연소 모델이 개발되었다. 모델은 상용 1-D 사이클 해석 프로그램 (Boost)와 연동할 수 있도록 개발되었으며, 흡배기 시스템을 포함한 엔진 전체에 대한 동시 해석이 가능하였다. 연소 모델은 Fortran90 으로 개발되었으며, AVL 에서 제공된 'user defined high pressure cycle (UDHPC) interface'를 통해 Boost 와 연동되었다. 두 가지의 인젝터(8 홀, 10 홀)에 대해 두 가지 부하에서 해석을 수행하였으며, 해석 결과는 실제 엔진의 성능 실험 결과를 잘 추종하였다.

The purpose of the research is to investigate of diesel spray combustion for simultaneously reduce way NOx and PM. The pressure diesel injection were done into intermediates that are generated by very lean DME HCCI combustion using a RCM. The concentration of intermediate could not be directly measured; we estimated it by CHEMKIN calculation. DME HCCI characteristic is surveyed. Validations of the CHEMKIN calculation were confirmed pressure rise of an experiment and pressure rise of a calculation. Using a framing streak camera captured two dimensional spontaneous luminescence images from chemical species at low temperature reaction(LTR) and high temperature reaction (HTR). Also, the combustion events were observed by high-speed direct photography, the ignition and combustion were analyzed by the combustion chamber pressure profiles.

The performance of a direct-injection type diesel engine often depends on the strength of air flow in the cylinder, shape of combustion chamber, the number of nozzle holes, etc. This is of course because the process of combustion in the cylinder was affected by the mixture formation process. In the present paper, high speed photography was employed to investigate the effectiveness of holes penetrated from the bottom of cavity wall to piston crown for some more useful utilization of air. The holes would function to improve mixing of fuel and air by the increase of air flow in the cylinder. The results obtained are summarized as follows, (1) Activated first of the combustion by shorten of ignition timing and rapid flame propagation (2) Raised the combustion peak pressure, more close to TDC the formation timing of peak pressure.

Thermophotovoltaics is the direct energy conversion technology from thermal to electric (voltaic) energy via photon radiation, without any thermodynamic cycle. It is, in general, accomplished by immersing solid body in high temperature heat source (e.g. combustion field), in order to achieve high intensity irradiation, and by receiving the radiation thereof on photovoltaic cells. In this paper, advantages of combustion in porous inert medium in applying to the thermophotovoltaics are discussed in a view of its excess enthalpy features. In addition, the similarities of flame behaviors in porous inert medium to both in single and multi-channels are described.

Diversification of combustion fuel is the demands of the times and biomass is the most attractive option since it can contribute to the prevention of global warming at the same time. Due to the national renewable obligation, generally called Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS), many power companies are considering direct combustion of biomass or co-firing with coal. In order to use biomass as a fuel, informations of its combustion characteristics and ash related problems should be investigated. In this study, combustion performance of biomass was assessed in a bubbling fluidized bed combustor, and ash characteristics of various biomass fuels were studied with standard test method.

Regenerative burner is a product of new combustion technology for realizing higher thermal efficiency and lower emissions, moreover utilizing very high preheated air temperature up to $1,000^{\circ}C$. In this study the experimental study was carried out to find out a combustion characteristics breaking the old combustion concept. From the variation of configuration of gas nozzle and hot test on the temperature distribution and NOx, CO, it was found out that the performance of regenerative burner was better than that of existing burner, mainly due to the effect of internal gas recirculation.

The flame patterns were investigated in an oscillating combustion burner equipped with a specially designed proportioning valve. The proportioning valve is driven by a solenoid and has an elastomer part which controls the valve opening area. For characterizing the valve, nozzle exit velocities were measured with a hot wire anemometry. The flame patterns were investigated by direct photographing methods using a high speed camera and a digital camera. The results show that the nozzle exit velocities could be controlled diversely and rapidly changed, so the valve seemed appropriate for the oscillating combustion burner application. Mushroom shape and highly wrinkled structure were typical features of the flames in the oscillating combustion burner. As the oscillating intensity of the fuel flow increased, the flame length was shortened.
