내연기관은 연료로 공급되는 에너지의 30~40%만을 동력에너지로 전환되고 나머지 60~70%는 손실에너지와 배기에너지로 버려지게 된다. 따라서 배기에너지를 회수한다면 기계적 에너지 또는 전기적 에너지로 변환시킬 수 있다. 열전발전기는 배기관에 위치하여 고온 열원과 저온 열원 사이에 온도차를 이용한다. 두 열원 사이에 온도차를 이용하여 전기적 에너지를 발생시켜 동력 에너지 등 여러 에너지로 변환 가능하다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 열전발전기의 특성을 예측하기 위해 수치해석을 통하여 여러 조건에 따른 열전발전기 특성을 예측하였다. 수치해석 결과 고온 열원과 저온 열원 간의 온도 차이가 클수록 발생하는 전력 역시 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

엔진 배기 저감이나 열효율 향상을 위하여 배기관에 많은 장치들이 부착되고 있다. 이러한 장치들은 배기구의 개도면적을 줄이게 되고 배기 압력을 증가시킨다. 배기압력의 증가는 원활한 가스 교환을 방해하여 엔진 성능이 저하되는 원인이 된다. 그러나 적당한 배압의 증가는 잔류가스의 효과에 의하여 질소산화물을 감소시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 배기 압력 증가가 엔진 성능에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 배기관 끝단의 개도량을 변화시켜 배기 압력을 조절하면서 엔진 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 무부하에서 배압이 미소하게 증가된 경우에 연료 소모율이 저감되고 동시에 질소산화물이 저감되었지만 과도하게 배압이 증가하는 경우에는 연소의 악화로 유해 배기가스가 크게 증가되었다.

A double pipe grain heater using engine exhaust gas as a heat source was developed. The performance of the grain heater was examined with soybeans as a test material experimentally and numerically using a mathematical model constructed. The following conclusions were drawn: 1. The modified screw conveyor used in the grain heater has a characteristic of decreasing capacity with increasing speed at speeds above 60 rpm. Operation with speeds below 60 rpm is recommended. 2. Heating soybeans by the heater at soybean flow rate up to 100 kg/hr, inlet temperature of the exhaust gas to the heater are recommended as above $400^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$, and $200^{\circ}C$ roughly for a 2, 5, and 10 kW engine, respectively. 3. Temperature increments of soybean by the heater at soybean flow rates ranged from 25 to 100 kg/hr are in the ranges of $6^{\circ}C-35^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C-88^{\circ}C$, and $15^{\circ}C-140^{\circ}C$ with exhaust gas from a 2, 5, and 10 kW engine, respectively, at an exhaust temperature of $500^{\circ}C$. 4. Thermal efficiency of the heater at soybean flow rates ranged from 25 to 100 kg/hr are in the ranges of 35-37%, 28-34%, and 20-29% with exhaust gas from a 2, 5, and 10 kW engine, respectively. 5. The grain heater can be used to heat the other grain, also, without any bad effect from the exhaust gas used as a heat source.

Recently, the number of PET cyclotrons has increased in Korea. A cyclotron mainly produces $^{18}F$, which is used for the production of [$^{18}F$]FDG, a cancer diagnostic radiopharmaceutical. For radiation protection, the discharge control standard under the Nuclear Safety Act limits the radioactive concentration of $^{18}F$ in the exhaust discharged from a nuclear power utilization facility to below $2,000Bq\;m^{-3}$. However, the radioactive concentration of $^{18}F$ discharged during [$^{18}F$]FDG production at the cyclotron facility at Chosun University is maintained at about $1,500Bq\;m^{-3}$ on average, which is 75% of the concentration limit of the discharge control standard, and temporarily exceeds the standard as per the real-time monitoring results. This study evaluated the performance of the exhaust filter unit of the cyclotron facility at Chosun University by assessing the concentration of $^{18}F$ in the exhaust, and an experiment was conducted on the discharge reduction, where $^{18}F$ is discharged without reacting with the FDG precursors during [$^{18}F$]FDG synthesis and is immediately captured by the [$^{18}F$]FDG automatic synthesis unit. Based on the performance evaluation results of the exhaust filter at the cyclotron facility of Chosun University, the measured capture efficiency before and after the filter was found to be 92%. Furthermore, the results of the discharge reduction experiment, where the exhaust $^{18}F$ was immediately captured by the [$^{18}F$]FDG synthesizer, showed a very satisfactory 94.3% reduction in the concentration of discharge compared to the existing discharge concentration.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of SCR reactor on the exhaust emissions characteristics in order to develop a urea-SCR aftertreatment system for reducing $NO_x$ emissions. The experiments are conducted by using a flue tube LPG steam boiler with the urea-SCR aftertreatment system. The urea-SCR aftertreatment system utilizes the ammonia converted from 17% aqueous urea solution injected in front of SCR catalyst as a reducing agent for reducing $NO_x$ emissions. The equivalence ratio, urea injection amount, ammonia slip and $NO_x$ conversion efficiency relative to boiler load are applied to discuss the experimental results. In this experiment, the average equivalence ratio is calculated by changing only the fuel consumption rate while the intake air amount is constantly fixed at $25,957.11cm^3/sec$. The average equivalence ratios are 1.38, 1.11, 0.81 and 0.57 when boiler loads are 100, 80, 60 and 40%. The $NO_x$ conversion efficiency is raised with increasing urea injection amount, and $NH_3$ slip is also boosted at the same time. Consequently, the $NO_x$ conversion efficiency relative to boiler load should be examined in combination with urea injection amount and $NH_3$ slip. The results are calculated by 89, 85, 77 and 79% for the boiler loads of 100, 80, 60 and 40%. The appropriate amount of urea injection for the respective boiler load can be not discussed by only $NO_x$ emissions, and should be determined by considering the $NO_x$ conversion efficiency, $NH_3$ slip and reactive activation temperature simultaneously. In this study, the urea amounts of 230, 235, 233 and 231 mg/min are injected at the boiler loads of 100, 80, 60 and 40%, and the final $NH_3$ slips are measured by 8.48, 5.58, 11.97 and 11.34 ppm at the same conditions. THC emission is affected by the SCR reactor under other experimental conditions except 100% engine load, and CO emission at only 40% engine load. The rest of exhaust emissions are not affected by the SCR reactor under all experimental conditions.

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of turbo chargers on engines for off-road use when combined with WGT and VGT technologies. The effectiveness of turbo chargers was measured and performance was compared using a functional model. Exhaust characteristics were compared using WGT and VGT technologies through a gas analyzer. Results showed VGT technology was more effective at high RPM compared to WGT technology. When it came to maximising turbo performance, VGT was more effective than WGT in every test. WGT and VGT produced similar exhaust NOx levels, whereas the VGT was more effective on the PM.

Since the characteristics of combustion and pollutant in Diesel engines were mainly affected by the characteristics of in-cylinder gas flow and fuel spray, an understanding of those was essential to the design of the D.I. Diesel engines. The improvement of volumetric efficiency of air charging into combustion chamber is a primary requirement to obtain better mean effective pressure of an engine. Since the air resistances in intake and exhaust flow passages, valve lift and valve shape influence greatly to the volumetric efficiency, it is very important to investigate the flow characteristics of intake and exhaust port which develops air motion in the combustion chamber. This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation of steady flow through the various kinds of commercial cylinder head ports, and the development procedures of HHI's H21/32 prototype cylinder head ports.

An experimental study was performed to explore characteristics of combustion and exhaust emissions in the compression ignition engine of RCCI (reactivity controlled compression ignition) using diesel-gasoline dual fuel. A dual-fuel reactivity controlled compression ignition concepts is demonstrated as a promising method to achieve high thermal efficiency and low emissions. For investigating combustion characteristics, engine experiments were performed in a light-duty diesel engine over a range of SOIs (start of injection) and gasoline percents. The experimental results showed that cases of diesel-gasoline dual fuel combustion is capable of operating over a middle range of engine loads with lower levels of NOx and soot, acceptable pressure rise rate, low ISFC (indicated specific fuel consumption), and high indicated thermal efficiency.
