연료소모량 원단위 및 산정모형식은 교통시설 투자사업의 효과분석 시 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 최대적재중량과 차량형태에 따라 그 종류가 다양하게 분류되는 대형화물자동차의 차종특성이 반영되지 않고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 이전부터 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 대표적인 연료소모량 산정모형을 검토하고, 화물자동차를 대표할 수 있는 5개 차종을 선정하여 현장 주행실험을 수행하였다. 주행실험을 통해 얻어낸 연료소모량 측정값은 본 연구에서 개발된 2차식 형태의 연료소모량 산정모형 개발에 사용되었으며, 실험차종별로 각각 개별모형을 개발하고, 기존 연료소모량 산정모형과 비교해 보았다. 그 결과, 기존모형과 본 연구에서 개발된 모형의 적용결과 간에 적지 않은 차이가 발생했으며, 11톤 카고트럭을 기준으로 만들어진 기존모형과 본 실험 25톤 카고형 덤프트럭의 연료소모량 산정모형의 적용결과가 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 본 연구에서 개발된 5개 연료소모량 산정모형의 적용결과와 기존모형의 적용결과 사이에 약 26%의 차이가 나타남을 확인했으며, 이와 같은 결과는 기존 연료소모량 산정모형이 현실적 한계성을 지니고 있음과 추가적인 보완 연구가 필요하다는 것을 나타내는 결과이다.

가변축은 대형화물자동차에 주로 장착되는 보조차축으로써, 물류비용 절감과 도로포장면 파손방지, 유류비 등의 차량운행비용 절감을 목적으로 도입되었다. 그러나 유류비절감 측면에 대한 가변축의 사용효과가 실증적 실험을 통해 입증되지 않았을 뿐만 아니라, 일부 운전자들의 막연한 기대심리로 인한 잘못된 가변축 활용사례가 발생되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 가변축 사용 여부에 따른 연료소모량 변화를 확인하고자 실제 도로주행 실험을 수행하였으며, 실험결과를 바탕으로 연료소모원단위 모형을 개발 및 적용하여 가변축 사용여부별 연료소모량을 비교하였다. 그 결과, 가변축을 사용하지 않을 시에 연료소모량 감소가 예상되었으며, 수치상으로 공차주행 시 -0.83%, 만차주행 시 -2.15%를 나타내었다. 공차주행 시 절감율은 제도의 효과를 정량적으로 나타내는 수치로써, 금액으로 환산 시 약 300억 원에 달한다.

Fuel consumption in fisheries is a primary concern due to environmental effects and costs to fishermen. Much research has been carried out to reduce the fuel consumption related to fishing operations. The fuel consumption of fishing gear during fishing operation is generally related to hydrodynamic resistance on the gear. This research demonstrates a new approach using numerical methods to reduce fuel consumption. The results from the simulation were verified with results that mirrored the model experiments. By designing the fishing gear using drawing software, the whole and partial resistance force on the gear can be calculated as a result of simulations. The simulation results will suggest suitable materials or gear structure for reducing the hydrodynamic forces on the gear while maintaining the performance of the gear. Furthermore, the efficiency of low energy used anchovy dragnet as economic point of view will be dealt. This research will helpful to reduce the GHG emissions from fishing operations and lead to reduce fishing costs due to fuel savings.

The effects of exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) on the characteristics of NOx emissions and specific fuel consumption rate have been investigated using an eight-cylinder. four cycle. direct injection diesel engine operating at several loads and speeds. The theoretical NO formation concentration is calculated with the equivalence ratio as a parameter of flame temperature to study the effect of EGR on NOx emissions in the diesel combustion. The experiments in this study are conducted on the fixed fuel injection timing of $38^{\circ}$ BTDC regardless of experimental conditions. It is found that the specific fuel consumption rate is slightly increased with EGR rate. and NOx emissions are markedly reduced owing to the drop of the incoming oxygen concentratio and the increase of equivalence ratio as the EGR rate increases.

Recently, satellite formation flying has been a topic of significant research interest in aerospace society because it provides potential benefits compared to a large spacecraft. Some techniques have been proposed to design optimal formation trajectories minimizing fuel consumption in the process of formation configuration or reconfiguration. In this study, a method is introduced to build fuel-optimal trajectories minimizing a cost function that combines the total fuel consumption of all satellites and assignment of fuel consumption rate for each satellite. This approach is based on collocation and nonlinear programming to solve constraints for collision avoidance and the final configuration. New constraints of nonlinear equality or inequality are derived for final configuration, and nonlinear inequality constraints are established for collision avoidance. The final configuration constraints are that three or more satellites should form a projected circular orbit and make an equilateral polygon in the horizontal plane. Example scenarios, including these constraints and the cost function, are simulated by the method to generate optimal trajectories for the formation configuration and reconfiguration of multiple satellites.

To minimize the fuel consumption in the hybrid vehicle, the single performance index, which can express the fuel consumption in engine and electric energe consumption in battery system at the same time, is required. In this study we proposed a single performance index with equivalent BSFC concept, and with this, we constructed driving control algorithm, which can determine optimal gear ratio and power split ratio of the engine and the motor, for the parallel hybrid vehicle. Additionally, to verify the validity of this algorithm, driving simulation is performed.

Generally block imbedded type oil pump is adopted to make a small engine. In this paper 1D/3D numerical simulations were conducted to reduce energy consumption of the block imbedded type oil pump. At each stage of engine development we have estimated the oil flow rate and pressure to optimize oil pump sizes by using the 1D system analysis and then accomplished 3D CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations to optimize oil pump shapes including inlet/outlet port. As a result, the energy consumption of oil pump has been reduced to nearly 27% and the engine fuel consumption to $1{\sim}1.5%$.

Engine bench tests has been done on a common-rail diesel engine with bio-diesel fuel to study effects of B100 and B20 on output power, fuel consumption and emissions. Test results show that B100 and B20 could reduce PM, HC, CO emission and smoke, but power decrease, fuel consumption increase and NOx increase obviously, B100 reduce PM and DS with $50%{\sim}70%$ and $80%{\sim}85%$ compared with diesel fuel, while B20 reduce PM and DS with $25%{\sim}35%$ and $30%{\sim}40%$. NOx of B100 and B20 increase $5%{\sim}20%$ compare to diesel.

Harmful exhaust emissions of diesel engines are recognized as main causes of air pollution in these days. But, the direct injection diesel engine is widely used for sake of minimization on energy consumption. Because biodiesel fuel is a renewable and alternative fuel for a diesel engine, its usability is expanded. To investigate the effect of biodiesel fuel(extracted from rapeseed oil) on the characteristics of performance and exhaust emissions in an agricultural diesel engine, the biodiesel fuel derived from rapeseed oil was applied in this study. Smoke emission of esterified rapeseed oil was reduced remarkably by approximately 44.5% at 1500 rpm, full load in comparison with the commercial diesel fuel. The power, torque and brake specific energy consumption of the diesel engine showed very slight differences. It was concluded that esterified rapeseed oil could be utilized effectively as an alternative and renewable fuel for agricultural direct injection diesel engines.
