This is an experimental study to investigate the characteristics of Diesel spray and Diesel engine performance using ultrasonic injection nozzle (A, B type) and conventional commercial injection nozzle (C type). The results are obtained as follows: 1. SMD and range of size distribution of Diesel spray using the ultrasonic nozzle are smaller than those using the conventional injection nozzle, and spray angle is spread. 2. Because of the difference of the ultrasonic vibration energy transfer in the same condition, the effects of A-type ultrasonic vibration are larger than those of B-type ultrasonic vibration. 3. Attaching the ultrasonic vibrator to the conventional injection nozzle of the Diesel engine, engine performances i.e. BMEP, BSFC, and cylinder peak pressure are improved.

A comprehensive cycle simulation was developed to predict the performance of gasoline engine including intake and exhaust systems with variation of operating conditions and design factors. In this study, the gas exchange model, compression and expansion model, two-zone combustion model and heat transfer model were used. In order to confirm the feasibility of the simulation program, the calculated results were compared with experimental results. P-$\theta$ diagrams, I. M. E. P. and S. F. C by means of calculation showed acceptable quantitative agreement with the experimental data. Therefore, this program is particularly well adapted to indicating the direction of the optimal design and optimal operating conditions for gasoline engine.

In this study, we define the measuring method of crank angle precisely using an event and perform a study on the hardware structure and software algorithms which is applicable for the commercial engine. Also we developed a Computer-ECU(Personal computer based electronic control unit) using a computer and a microprocessor, for performing the ignition at a desire position(angle) and for controlling a duty ratio a pulse for ISC(Idle speed control). We applied these algorithms to the modeling which is induced a concept of event and got a better result than a conventional ECU in the state of transient as a result of performing air fuel ratio control in a commercial engine. This technique can be used for the back to improve ECU performance. It the present type of Hybrid I. C voltage regulator is altered to the new type of regulator, we will be surely able to reduce the production cost as well as simplify the design of alternator\`s rear bracket and rectifier part because of the removal of trio diode. Experiment is taken by MS-R004.

This study investigates the lubrication characteristics of fuel injection pumps with reference to different fuel oils. Medium-speed diesel engines use fuel oils with various viscosities, such as heavy fuel oil (HFO, which is a high-viscosity fuel oil) and light diesel oil (LDO, which is a low-viscosity fuel oil). When fuel oil with a low viscosity is used, both fuel oil and lubricating oil lubricate the system. Thus, the lubrication of the fuel injection pump is in a multi-viscosity condition when the fuel oil in use changes. We suggest three cases of multi-viscosity models, and divide the fuel injection pump into three lubrication sections: a, the new oil section; b, the mixed oil section; and c, the used oil section. This study compares the lubrication characteristics with variation of the multi-viscosity model, clearance. The volume of Section b does not affect the lubrication characteristics. The lubrication characteristics of the fuel injection pump are poor when high-viscosity fuel oil transfers to low-viscosity fuel oil. This occurs because the viscosity in the new oil section (i.e., Section a) dominates the lubrication characteristics of the fuel injection pump. However, the lubricant oil supply in the used oil section (i.e., Section c) can improve the lubrication characteristics in this condition. Moreover, the clearances of the stem and head significantly influence the lubrication characteristics when the fuel oil changes.

Taking into account the increasingly stringent legislation on emissions from marine engines, this work aims to analyze several internal engine modifications to reduce $NO_x$ (nitrogen oxides) and other pollutants. To this end, a numerical model was employed to simulate the operation cycle and characterize the exhaust gas composition. After a preliminary validation process was carried out using experimental data from a four-stroke, medium-speed marine engine, the numerical model was employed to study the influence of several internal modifications, such as water addition from 0 to 100% water to fuel ratios, exhaust gas recirculation from 0 to 100% EGR rates, modification of the overlap timing from 60 to $120^{\circ}$, modification of the intake valve closing from 510 to $570^{\circ}$, and modification of the cooling water temperature from 70 to $90^{\circ}C$. $NO_x$ was reduced by nearly 100%. As expected, it was found that, by lowering the combustion temperature, there is a notable reduction in $NO_x$, but an increase in CO (carbon monoxide), HC (hydrocarbons) and consumption.

In recent years, the particle number emissions rather than particulate mass emissions in automotive engine have become the subject of controversial discussions. Recent results from the health effects studies imply that it is possible that particulate mass does not properly correlated with the variety of health effects attributed to diesel exhaust. So, the concern is instead now focusing on nano-sized particles emitted from I. C. engine. This study has been performed for the better understanding about the engine nano-particle for 3-measurement systems with different measuring principle. Firstly, EEPS is a newly introduced instrument for size distribution measurement of engine exhaust particles. It can measure nano-particles with an adequate resolution and in real time. In this study, the characteristics of EEPS were compared with ELPI and SMPS. As a research results, EEPS showed a same effect of engine load on the size distribution with ELPI and SMPS. But the quantitative results of EEPS were more similar to SMPS than ELPI, because the EEPS and SMPS use a same principle for classifying particles by size. The capability for transient measurement of EEPS was equivalent to that of ELPI.

For natural gas and LPG fuel, measurements on the concentrations of individual exhaust hydrocarbon species have been made as a function of air-fuel ratio in a 2-liter four-cylinder engine using a gas chromatography. NMHC in addition to the species of HC, other emissions such as CO$_2$, CO and NOx were examined for natural gas and LPG at 1800rpm far two compression ratios (8.6 and 10.6). Fuel conversion efficiencies were also investigated together with emissions to study the effect of engine parameters on the combustion performances in gas engines especially under the lean bum conditions. It was found that CO$_2$ emission decreased with smaller C value of fuel, leaner mixture strength and the higher compression ratio. HC emissions from LPG engine consisted primarily of propane (larger 60%), ethylene and propylene, while main emissions from natural gas were mothane (larger than 60%), ethane, ethylene and propane on the average. The natural gas was proved to give the less ozone formation than LPG fuel. This was accomplished by reducing the emissions of propylene, which has relatively high MIR factor, and propane that originally has large portion of LPG. In addition, natural gas shows a benefit in other emissions (i.e. NMHC,NOx, CO$_2$and CO), SR and BSR values except fuel conversion efficiency.

The technique of $NH_3$ SCR (selective catalytic reduction) assisted by plasma oxidation has been applied to a 2,000 cc diesel engine. The present combined $deNO_x$ process consists of two steps. The first step is that about 50% of emitted NO from the engine is oxidized to $NO_2$ in a plasma oxidation process. The second step is that NO and $NO_2$ are simultaneously reduced to $N_2$ in the $NH_3$ SCR process. The engine test results showed that the $deNO_x$ rates of the present combined process are higher than those of conventional SCR process by 20%. Such a high performance of the combined process is noticeable especially, when the exhaust temperature are relatively low, i.e., $170-220^{\circ}C$. To provide a feasibility of the present technique the effects of operating conditions, such as an electrical input energy, an exhaust gas temperature, an initial NO concentration, and the amount of hydrocarbon addition, were discussed.

The steel outfitting structures installed in engine room are vibrated by an excitation of the engine and the propeller. Vibration problems such as cracks and fitting breakages are mainly induced at the near range of the resonance. The excitation frequency estimation is possible by engines and propeller specifications, but the natural frequency of a steel outfitting structure is not easily estimated due to the complication and variety of the designed shape. This paper represents natural frequency data of simple steel outfitting structures. As a vibration analysis tool, MSC/NASTRAN was used to calculate natural frequencies. Natural frequencies were compared in case of the shape and boundary condition changes of simple models, and anti-vibration models of the steel outfitting structures were presented on the basis of results.

Due to increasing demand of new technology, the complexity of hardware and software consisting embedded systems is rapidly growing. Consequently, it is getting hard to design complex devices only with traditional methodology. In this contribution, I introduce a new approach of designing complex hardware with SystemVerilog. I adopted the idea of object oriented implementation of the SystemVerilog to the design of an elliptic curve crypto-engine server farm. I successfully implemented the whole system including the test bench in one integrated environment, otherwise in the traditional way it would have cost Verilog simulation and C/SystemC verification which means much more time and effort.
