To predict and analyze the rolling stock's fire growth is considered not only important factor in estimating hazard analysis of rolling stock, but also a primary factor in aspect of a rail load facility. Because it's could be regarded as a ignition source in risk assesment for the facility i.e. tunnel and station. However, currently, standardized method to predict and analyze the fire growth has not been completed yet. it is due to the fact that fire growth is not only depended on thermal property of interior materials, but also is affected dominantly by various factors such as ignition source (characterized by location, duration, and intensity), train running condition and in/exterior ventilation condition. Especially, ventilation condition is one of the most effective factor to affect fire growth in compartment space as noticed by under-ventilation fire condition. In this study, the effect of each ventilation condition on fire growth and load were examined through the numerical method through FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator).

The AITs(autoignition temperatures) describe the minimum temperature to which a substance must be heated, without the application of a flame or spark, which will cause that substance to ignite. The AITs are often used as a factor in determining the upper temperature limit for processing operations and conditions for handling, storage and transportation, and in determining potential fire hazard from accidental contact with hot surfaces. The measurement AITs are dependent upon many factors, namely initial temperature, pressure, volume, fuel/air stoichiometry, catalyst material, concentration of vapor, time lag. Therefore, the AITs reported by different ignition conditions are sometimes significantly different. This study measured the AITs of benzene, toluene and xylene isomers from time lag using AS1M E659-78 apparatus. The experimental ignition delay times were a good agreement with the calculated ignition delay times by the proposed equations wtih a few A.A.D.(average absolute deviation). Also The experimental AITs of benzene, toluene, o-xylene, m-xylene and p-xylene were $583^{\circ}C,\;547^{\circ}C,\;480^{\circ}C,\;587^{\circ}C,\;and\;557^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Gasoline Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) combustion is a new combustion concept. Unlike the conventional internal combustion engine, the premixed fuel mixture with high residual gas rate is auto-ignited and burned without flame propagation. There are several operating factors which affect HCCI combustion such as start of combustion (SOC), residual gas fraction, engine rpm, etc. Among these factors SOC is a critical factor in the combustion because it affects exhaust gas emissions, engine power, fuel economy and combustion characteristics. Therefore SOC of gasoline HCCI should be controlled precisely, and SOC detection should be preceded SOC control. This paper presents a control oriented SOC detection method using 50 percent normalized difference pressure. Normalized difference pressure is defined as the normalized value of difference pressure and difference pressure is difference between the in-cylinder firing pressure and the motoring pressure. These methods were verified through the HCCI combustion experiments. The SOC detection method using difference pressure provides a fast and precise SOC detection.

Experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of EGR(exhaust gas recirculation) on engine noise using single cylinder combustion ignition engine. Under constant engine rotary speed of 1200 RPM, 8 mg fuel quantity was injected with 15, 18 and 21% of oxygen ratio and 1400 bar of injection pressure. Using the in-cylinder pressure data acquired by a piezoelectric transducer, the engine performance parameters were calculated. Radiated engine noise measured for 10 seconds was analyzed using spectral characteristics and sound quality metrics such as loudness, sharpness, roughness. From the obtained engine performance parameters and sound quality metrics, effect of oxygen ratio of the premixed air, start of injection timing on frequency characteristic and sound quality metrics were analyzed. Correlation analysis was conducted between MPRR(maximum pressure rise rate), RI(ringing intensity) and sound quality metrics. RI was identified as the most important factor having influence on the sound quality metrics.

Stringent regulations of exhaust emission from vehicles become a major issue in automotive industries. In SI engines, it is one of the crucial factor to reduce exhaust emissions during cold start in order to meet stringent regulations such as SULEV or EURO-4, because SI engines emit a large portion of total harmful exhaust compounds when they are cold. At early stages of cold start in gasoline engines, exhaust gas temperature plays a key role to improve three way catalyst by virtue of fast warmup. Therefore, this study focused on the increase of exhaust gas temperature under controls of engine operating parameters such as spark ignition timing, valve overlap by virtue of intake VVT and catalyst heating function. Furthermore, effects on harmful emission due to these parameters are also investigated. Experiments showed that retarded spark ignition timings and increased valve overlap may be helpful to increase exhaust gas temperature. It was also found that $NO_x$ was decreased with increased valve overlap. This study also showed that sudden changes in ISA and amount of fuel due to the deactivation of catalyst heating function cause temporal increase of harmful emissions.

Generally, a reduced chemical mechanism of n-heptane is used as chemical fuel of a 3-D diesel engine simulation because diesel fuel consists of hundreds of chemical components and various chemical classes so that it is very complex and large to use for the calculation. However, the importance of fuel in a 3-D simulation increases because detailed fuel characteristics are the key factor in the recent engine research such as homogeneous charged compression ignition engine. In this study, normal paraffin, iso paraffin and aromatics were selected to represent diesel characteristics and n-dodecane was used as a representative normal paraffin to describe the heavy molecular weight of diesel oil (C10~C20). Reduced kinetics of iso-octane and toluene which are representative species of iso paraffin and aromatics respectively were developed in the previous study. Some species were selected based on the sensitivity analysis and a mechanism was developed based on the general oxidation scheme. The ignition delay times, maximum pressure and temperature of the new reduced n-dodecane chemical mechanisms were well matched to the detailed mechanism data.

본 연구는 퇴비중의 유기물 함량으로부터 탄소함량을 구하기 위한 환산계수를 결정하기 위하여 수행하였다. 퇴비중의 유기물 함량은 회화법으로, 탄소함량은 원소 분석기를 사용하여 분석한 결과 유기물 함량과 탄소함량의 관계는 "탄소함량(%)=$1.995+0.484{\times}$유기물 함량(%)"의 직선 회귀식을 따랐고, 분산분석에 의한 회귀직선의 유의성 검정은 고도로 유의하게 나타났다(P < 0.001). 기존의 토양 유기물 환산계수 1.724나 1.8을 적용할 경우, 퇴비중의 유기물 함량으로부터 환산한 탄소함량은 실제보다 10% 이상 높게 평가되어 우리 나라에서 생산, 판매되는 퇴비의 탄소함량을 구할 때는 상기 회귀식을 적용하는 것이 타당하리라 생각된다.

In this study, the numbers, sizes of particles from a single cylinder direct injection spark-ignition (DISI) engine fuelled with gasoline and LPG are examined over a wide range of engine operating conditions. Tests are conducted with various engine loads (2~10bar of IMEP) and fuel injection pressures (60, 90, and 120 bar) at the engine speed of 1,500 rpm. Particles are sampled directly from the exhaust pipe using rotating disk thermodiluter. The size distributions are measured using a scanning mobility particle sizer (SMPS) and the particle number concentrations are measured using a condensation particle counter (CPC). The results show that maximum brake torque (MBT) timing for LPG fuel is less sensitive to engine load and its combustion stability is also better than that for gasoline fuel. The total particle number concentration for LPG was lower by a factor of 100 compared to the results of gasoline emission due to the good vaporization characteristic of LPG. Test result presents that LPG for direct injection spark ignition engine help the particle emission level to reduce.

In the fire there are fusion signs and damage by fire, and insulation aging and carbonization of the electric wiring in the ignition spot because of special characteristic of the appliance in the electricity fire. Because of the physical factor applied in the damage of fire, the decision of ignition spot by eye investigation is insufficient. In this paper, the cause of electricity fire is researched. The focus is on the operation state of operated MCCB(Molded Case Circuit Breaker) at the time of electricity fire. Through grasping the operation principle of MCCB and the experiment, the state of MCCB after fire suppression is discriminated. The distinction possibility on the exist of electricity fire is proposed.
