Coal oil is widely used as a home heating fuel for portable and installed coal oil heaters. Today, Coal oil is widely used as fuel for jet engines and some rocket engines in several grades. This paper describes the performance characteristics according to the compression ratio of spark ignition engine fuelled with coal oil. As a result, the following knowledge is obtained: As the compression ratio is decreased, there is an increase in torque, indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP), heat release rate, and brake thermal efficiency. Higher compression ratio of the engine decreases the ignition delay period, combustion period, and cooling loss.

본 연구에서는 직접분사식 CNG기관의 희박한계를 보다 확장하여 고효율 및 저배기 공해를 실현시키고자 실린더 내에 고압의 천연가스를 직접분사함과 동시에 흡입과정 중 흡기관 내에 소량의 저압천연가스를 보조분사하는 경우의 희박한계 확장 및 제반특성에 대해 검토하였다. 그 결과, 흡기보조분사가 없을 경우 희박한계가 ${\lambda}$ = 1.4 까지였으나, 흡기보조분사율이 5~15% 정도에서는 희박한계가 ${\lambda}$ = 1.5 까지 확장되었다. 이는 흡기보조분사에 따른 혼합기의 혼합율 향상에 기인한 것으로 해석하였다. 연소기간은 줄어들었지만, 흡기보조분사의 효과는 주연소기간에서 조기연소기간보다 강하게 나타났다.

One of the unsolved problems of the natural gas dual fuel engine is that there is too much exhaust of Total Hydrogen Carbon(THC) at a low equivalent mixture ratio. To fix it, a natural gas mixed with hydrohen was applied to engine test. The results showed that the higher the mixture ratio of hydrogen to natural gas, the higher the combustion efficiency. And when the amount of the intake air is reached to 90% of WOT, the combustion efficiency was promoted. But, like a case making the injection timing earlier, the equivalent mixture ratio for the nocking limit decreases and the produce of NOx increases.

In a gas engine, the exhaust and the engine cooling water are generated. The engine cooling water temperature is $100^{\circ}C$ and the exhaust temperature is $500^{\circ}C$. The amount of heat of engine cooling water is 43 kW and the amount of heat of exhaust is 21 kW. Eight different hybrid organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system configurations which considering different amount and temperature of waste heat are proposed for two gas engine tri-generation system and are thermodynamically analyzed. Simple system which concentrating two different waste heat on relatively low temperature engine cooling water shows highest thermal efficiency of 7.84% with pressure ratio of 3.67 and shaft power of 5.17 kW.

Intercoolers for multi-stage turbocharger of the hydrogen reciprocating engine for HALE UAV are installed for reducing the charged air inlet temperature of the engine. The intercooler is air to air, cross flow, plate-fin type and the fin configuration is offset-strip fin which is referenced from the heat exchanger of the ERAST. Most of HALE UAV's cruising altitude is 60,000 ft and the density of air for this altitude is very low compared to sea level. Therefore the required heat transfer area for the HALE UAV is about three-times bigger than the sea level. Consequently, it is essential to design to meet the required efficiency of intercooler in the range of not excessively growing the weight of the heat exchanger. The quasi-one dimensional heat transfer design/analysis for satisfying the requirement of the engine are written in this paper. The numerical analyses for estimating the coolant flow rate of the engine bay and pressure loss in the header and core are also summarized.

This paper describes generating efficiency characteristics of the double acting Stirling engine/generator for domestic small-scale CHP (Combined Heat and Power) system. In small distributed generation applications, Stirling engine has competition from fuel cell, microturbine and etc. In order to be economical in the applications, a long life with minimum maintenance is generally required. Free piston Stirling engine (FPSE) has no crank and rotating parts to generate lateral forces and require lubrication. Double acting Stirling engine/generator has one displacer and two power piston which are supported by flexure springs. Two power pistons oscillate with symmetric displacement and are connected with moving magnet type linear generators for power generation from PV work. In experiments, 1 kW class double acting free piston Stirling engine/generator is fabricated and tested. Heat is supplied to hot end of engine by the combustion of natural gas and converted to electric power by linear generators which are assembled with power pistons. The electric parameters such as voltage, current and phase are measured with for variable flow rate of fuel gas. Especially, generating efficiency of FPSE is measured with three different measurement methods. Generating efficiency of the double acting Stirling engine/alternator is about 24%.

This paper deals with the economic analysis of domestic fuel cell vehicles considering subsidy and hydrogen price in 2015 and 2025. We selected TFCV (Tucson fuel cell vehicle) and TDV (Tucson diesel vehicle) to identify the economic feasibility of fuel cell vehicles compared with conventional internal combustion engine vehicles. We made some sensitivity analysis by changing input factors such as the size of the subsidy, the hydrogen price and the discount rate. Also, we made a break-even point analysis on hydrogen prices that equalize the economic feasibility of TFCV and TDV in 2025. As a result, TFCV is not economical in 2015 due to the relatively high prices of hydrogen and vehicles. If the sale prices of TFCV are 30,000,000 won and 35,000,000 won in 2025, then the break-even points of hydrogen prices are equal to 7,483 won/kg and 5,043 won/kg.

Conceptual studies of a combined-cycle engine have been conducted. Herein, the results are presented. The engine is composed of ejector-jet, ramjet, scramjet and rocket modes, and will be mounted on the Single-Stage-to-Orbit aerospace plane. Propellants are hydrogen and oxygen.

A linear engine has advantages in terms of volume and weight, because there are no rotating parts. Thus, it is considered that linear engines might be suitable in hybrid vehicles. However, the linear engine has challenges in terms of the engine ignition timing and efficiency, so the engine has not been commercialized yet. In this study, the dynamic and combustion characteristics of the linear engine might be specified by various loads which are changed by conductance. The engine used in this experiment consists of two combustion chambers, four compressors, two linear alternators and a mover with a piston head and magnets. The way fuel is supplied in the experiment is by propane fuel being mixed with air in the carburetor, then being delivered into combustion cylinders via compressors. In the experiment, conductance is altered from 0.04 to 0.16mho, and the ignition timing is ahead by just 5.0mm from the maximum stroke. As a result of the experiment, frequency, stroke, input calories and maximum pressure are decreased when the conductance is increased. Meanwhile, IMEP, generation efficiency and electric power are increased when the conductance is increased. Therefore, it might confirm that high conductance generates more efficient electric power, but that thermal efficiency is the highest in the state of 0.08mho.
