항공교통시스템에서 핵심적 역할을 하는 항공사의 운영비 중 유류비용은 가장 큰부분을 차지한다. 따라서 많은 항공사들은 유류비 절감을 위한 많은 노력을 기울이고 있는 실정이다. 이 중 체계적인 항공기 급유계획 전략은 많은 비용절감 효과로 인하여 근래에 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 항공기 급유계획은 항공유의 급유비용이 각 운항공항 별로 상이할 때, 총 유류비를 최소화할 수 있도록 각 항공기의 운항공항에서 최적 급유량을 도출하는 계획이다. 본 연구에서는 항공기 급유계획에 관한 수리모형을 제시한다. 제시된 모형은 각 운항공항의 급유비용과 항공기 경로정보가 알려져 있을 때 각 운항공항에서 총비용을 최소로하는 정확한 급유량을 계산하는 최적화 모형이다. 실험결과, 제안된 모형은 직관적 형태의 발견적 기법보다 효과적인 비용절감이 이루어짐을 확인하였고, 향후 항공사를 비롯한 대형 운송시스템에서 유류관리 전략으로 중요한 역할을 할 것이라 기대된다.

본 연구는 가속페달에 반력을 생성하여 운전자의 경제운전을 유도하기 위한 에코페달의 설계와 성능 검증을 다룬다. 에코페달의 제어로직은 사전에 설정된 "허용가속도"를 바탕으로 현재 속도에서 허용되는 연료소비량을 정하고 이를 실제 연료소비량과 비교하여 에코페달의 작동을 결정하는 방식을 제안하였다. 폐달 반력은 운전자가 충분히 인지하되 불쾌감을 느끼지 않아야 하며, 차량의 정상 거동에 간섭이 없어야 한다. 스텝형과 램프형 반력 등과 같이 페달 답력이 급속하게 증가하는 형태의 반력은 반력 작동이 멈춘 직 후 운전자의 답력에 의한 급작스러운 가속 현상 때문에 적용이 어렵고, 이러한 문제가 없는 진동형 반력을 채택하였다. 진동형 반력의 주파수, 진폭, 작동시간은 운전자의 주관적 평가와 연비 향상 효과를 고려하여 결정하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 에코페달을 차량에 장착하여 주행시험을 실시한 결과 고속도로와 시내주행에서 각각 13%와 15%의 연비향상 효과를 보여주었다.

As the fuel oil cost covers from 45% to 60% of the total expenditure for fishing boat operation, the energy saving is now an urgent problem to be taken a countermeasure for engineers, manufacturers or specialists engaging in this field. Undertaking a second-hand engine of the trainging ship, the author made several reconstructions to restore its performances. By inserting foot linears of connecting rods the compression ratio was increased and by adjusting both the fuel injection timing and the cooling water outlet temperature, its thermal efficiency was improved. The results of the experimental operation were summarized as follows. 1. By raising the piston top position 0.75mm more than the value of the operating manual, the compression pressure increased 1.3 kg/$cm^2$ and the maximum pressure did 3.4 kg/$cm^2$ at 75% load. 2. At 75% load, the difference of the maximum pressure between each cylinder was decreased from 2.4 kg/$cm^2$ to 1.8 kg/$cm^2$. 3. The fuel consumption was decreased about 8 g/ps.h at 75% load, and about 5.3 g/ps.h at 85% load. 4. The brake thermal efficiency was improved about 1.5% at 75% load and 0.9% at 85% load.

Recently, most of the countries started to regulate the emission of vehicle because of the global warming. The engine scooter is also one of the factor which cause the pollution. The hybrid system of a vehicle has many advantages such as fuel saving and emission reduction. The purpose of this study is to choose optimal size of engine, motor and battery for hybrid scooter system using Dynamic programming. The dynamic programming is an effective method to find an optimal solution for the complicated nonlinear system, which contains various constraints of control variables. The power source size of hybrid scooter was chosen through the backward simulator using dynamic programming. From the analysis, we choose the optimal size of each power source. To verify the optimal size of the power source, the Forward simulation was carried out. As a result, the fuel efficiency of hybrid scooter has significantly increased in comparison with that of engine scooter.

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 in fishing operation is generally related to hydrodynamic resistance on the gear. This research is to propose a low drag generated midwater trawl in terms of the gear design improvement using simulations. The results from the simulation were verified with results that mirrored the model experiments. From the results, the resistance force of the proposed gear decreased to 29% compared to that of the current gear. Furthermore, the gear performance also improved with increased gear mouth compared to the current one. Therefore, the proposed gear will be helpful to reduce the greenhouse gases from fishing operation. It will also contribute to the fishing industry by saving fuel.

Fuel oil consumption cost varies depending on every ship operation and this roughly amounts to 70 % of shipping companies' total revenue. As such, efforts towards improved fuel economy are being pursued. An annual 1 % reduction in fuel consumption is perceived to result in saving tens million US dollars on the global fleet operation. One approach is the application of power take-off configurations which are seen to increase fuel oil economy and are suitable for power generation. In this study, the dynamic properties of a shaft generator coupled on a 10S90ME main engine of an 18 600 TEU container vessel is presented. The vibratory torque and angular velocity variation was examined through theoretical analysis and actual vibration measurement. The result of the study suggests a review on existing classification rules for generator design and the lowering of vibratory torque and angular velocity variation guideline.

Recently, the global automobile market is rapidly changing from internal combustion engine vehicles to eco-friendly vehicles including electric vehicles. Among eco-friendly vehicles, LPG vehicles are low in fine dust and are suggested as a realistic way to replace diesel vehicles. In addition, it is more economical than gasoline in its class, showing a cost-saving effect. In Korea, the business of converting gasoline into LPG is active. Research is being conducted to apply this to hybrid vehicles. In this study, the difference in energy consumption efficiency was analyzed when LPG fuel was applied by selecting a 2-liter GDI hybrid electric vehicle. The operation of the hybrid system according to various driving characteristics was confirmed by selecting the WLTC mode. As a result, it was confirmed that the BSFC was about 5% lower than that of gasoline fuel when using LPG fuel. This is due to the active operation of the motor while driving. Optimization is required as battery consumption increases from an energy perspective.

Nowadays, the demand of energy saving is increasing more and more while the natural resources have been exhausted. Besides, the emission gas caused by vehicles has been being a serious environment problem. Therefore, many studies have been carried out, especially focusing on braking energy regeneration, in order to save energy as well as reduce emission of mobile vehicles. In this paper, we propose a closed-loop hydrostatic transmission for braking energy regeneration with two configurations to reduce the energy consumption by recovering the braking energy. The effectiveness of the proposed system was verified by simulation. The simulation results indicated that the pressure coupling configuration gave better performance in comparison to flow coupling configuration about 40.8%, 61.7% and 53.8% reduction of fuel consumption in 10 mode, 10 mode modified profile and highway schedules, respectively.

The energy used in Korea is strongly dependent on that produced by foreign countries. Accordingly, saving energy is more important than ever, because of the rise of international oil prices and depletion of oil resources. The development of energy efficient buildings is required especially for public buildings in Korea. In this study, the energy use of public buildings is identified. Then, the analysis of energy usage through regional offices in Busan City offers energy saving measures for public buildings.

Because the reheating furnace consumes a large amount of energy to heat up the slabs, it is very important to find an optimal temperature patterns in the furnace for energy saving as well as uniform target temperature at the exit of the furnace. In this study, the temperature profiles in the slab are determined by solving the transient one-dimensional heat conduction equation in conjunction with boundary conditions with total heat exchange factors. The optimal temperature patterns are obtained to minimize the fuel consumption with satisfying the predetermined constraint conditions. The design optimization is performed by using a genetic algorithm and the optimal results are validated with results obtained from the PIDO tool, called as P.I.A.n.O.
