For the hydrogen recirculation system of the PEMFC (polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell), the ejector is useful to improve the efficiency of the fuel cell system. However, conventional ejector does not keep its entrainment ratio good when the various power duties is required by the fuel cell system. In this study, the variable multi-ejector acceptable in the whole duty range required from the fuel cell hybrid mini-bus is developed. Consequently, the performance of the developed ejector is verified by the experiments based on the real operating conditions.

At present, hydrogen is emerging as a future energy source based on environment-friendly aspect, creation of new industry, and enhancement of domestic energy security. In accordance with it, the world's leading automobile companies are focusing on the development and commercialization of hydrogen electric vehicle technology, and each country is strengthening its hydrogen fueling station deployment strategy for its own country. Furthermore, the supply of hydrogen fueling stations is actively promoting under national support. More than 500 hydrogen fueling stations are being constructed, operated and planned around the world. The introduction of hydrogen energy is also progressing in Korea, by announcing road-map to supply hydrogen electric vehicles and hydrogen fueling stations by year. However, there is insufficient discussion on the capacity of hydrogen fueling station in Korea. Therefore, this study suggests the optimum capacity of hydrogen fuelling station for domestic hydrogen economy.

FCEV uses electric energy which generated from the reaction between Hydrogen and Oxygen in fuel cell stack as driving force. As fossil fuels are exhausted, fuel cell is regarded as a potent substitute for next generation energy source, and thus, most of car-makers make every efforts to develop fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV). In addition, fuel cell is also beneficial in aspect of environment, because only clean water is produced during chemical reaction process instead of harmful exhausted gas. Generally, Hydrogen is supplied from high-pressured fuel tank, and air blower (or compressor) supply Oxygen by pressurizing ambient air. Air blower which is driven by high speed motor consumes about $7{\sim}8$ % of energy generated from fuel cell stack. Therefore, the efficiency of an air blower is directly linked with the performance of FCEV. This study will present the development process of an air blower and its consisting parts respectively.

천연가스-수소 혼합가스를 엔진 연료로 사용하는 방법은 배기가스 저감뿐만 아니라 다가올 수소에너지 시대를 대비하여 수소 인프라를 구축하는 데도 의의가 있다. 또한 수소 혼합 천연가스 연료 엔진은 천연가스 엔진 보다 더 높은 열효율 확보할 수 있어 에너지의 효율적 사용에 있어서도 매우 우수한 연료이다. 본 연구에서는 시내버스가 가장 많이 운전되는 조건인 아이들 조건을 대상으로 수소 혼합 천연가스 연료가 연료소모량과 배기가스 저감에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 실험 결과 수소 혼합 천연가스 연료는 천연가스에 비해 아이들 조건에서 연료소비율이 20%이상 저감되었으며 유해 배출가스인 THC, NOx를 근원적으로 저감시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.

도심 대기오염을 줄이고자 도입된 CNG 버스는 현재의 배기규제 기준을 만족시켜 도시 대기환경 개선에 많은 기여를 했지만 추가적인 후처리 장치의 도움 없이는 차기 배기기준인 유로6 배기규제를 만족시키기 매우 어렵다. 수소는 매우 활발하고 빠른 반응성을 가지고 있으며 희박가연한계 또한 매우 넓어 기존 연료와 함께 사용 시 개선된 연소 및 배기성능을 기대할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 시내버스용 대형 CNG 엔진에 수소를 일정 부분 CNG와 혼합한 HCNG 연료를 공급하여 희박연소를 시킴으로서 연소 및 배기성능을 개선하는 실험을 수행하였다. 수소혼합비율, 공연비, 점화시기 변화에 따른 연소 및 배기성능을 살펴보고 최적운전조건을 찾아내었으며 산화촉매 성능평가를 통해 11리터 버스용 HCNG 엔진의 상용화 가능성을 검토하였다.

According to revolutionary developments in automobile technologies, eco-friendly advanced vehicles (hybrid vehicle, hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle, electric vehicle, etc.) are rapidly increasing. The electromagnetic compatibility is getting more important for development of a vehicle because those advanced vehicles are driven by electric energy and equipped with more electric systems. In general, electromagnetic compatibility tests consist of an electromagnetic interference(EMI) test and an electromagnetic susceptibility(EMS) test. EMI test of the electric vehicles are needed not only in driving mode but also in charging mode because they must be recharged by much electric energy for driving. Depending on vehicle manufacturers, the charging device type and the location of charging device inlet in electric vehicles are various. In this paper, in order to investigate EMI of electric vehicles in charging mode in consideration of the direction of measuring antenna and the location of charging device inlet, a series of electromagnetic emission tests are conducted using three electric vehicles (neighborhood electric vehicle, electric vehicle and electric vehicle-bus). The test results show that electromagnetic emission measurements in charging mode are dependent on the direction of measuring antenna and the location of charging device inlet.

This study aims to analyze the mixing characteristics of hydrogen considered as a new fuel for internal combustion engines. As the physical property of helium gas is similar to that of hydrogen, helium gas was used in this study. To analyze the steady and unsteady behavior of jet, helium gas was injected into the stationary atmosphere at the normal temperature and pressure. Concentration of helium gas in the center of jet flow is in inverse proportion with axial distance from the nozzle tip. This agrees with the free jet theory of Schlichting. The relative equation for dimensionless concentration to radial/axial distance the axial distance of potential core region, the cone angle a of the jet flow and the relative equation for arriving distance of the front of jet flow to the lapse of time are obtained. But free jet theory of Schlichting in the dimensionless concentration is not in agreement with the present experimental results of the distance of the radial direction. It needs more study. When the arrival frequency of jet flow is used as a parameter, the transition area changing from unsteady flow area into steady flow area becomes gradually wider downstream, but its ratio for the whole unsteady flow area gradually decreases.

사용 압력 범위에서 고압 수소 탱크의 내구성을 검증하기 위해서는 수압 파열 시험이 수행되어야 한다. 그런데 물의 초기 주입 과정에서 물과 공기의 상호작용에 의해 생성된 기포가 탱크 내벽에 부착되어 잔류할 경우, 가압된 탱크가 파열되는 과정에서 기포의 급격한 압력 변화로 인해 큰 충격과 소음이 유발된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 단순화된 수식을 통하여 탱크 내벽에 잔류하는 기포를 제거하기 위해 필요한 유속을 예측하였으며, 수소 버스용수소 용기 형상을 기준으로 해당 유속을 유지하기 위한 주입 노즐의 형상을 결정하였다. 또한 입구 압력에 따른 유속 변화를 예측하기 위하여 수치 해석 모델의 개발이 수행되었고, 예측 결과의 타당성을 입증하기 위하여 모형 제작을 통한 실험이 수행되었다. 실험 결과, 탱크 벽면 근처의 유속은 해석모델 예측 값과 유사하게 나타났으며, 입구 압력이 1.5 ~ 5.5 bar 일 경우 제거 가능한 기포의 최소 크기는 약 2.2 ~ 4.6 mm로 예측되었다.
