N₂O is hazardous atmosphere pollution matter which can damage the ozone layer and cause green house effect. There are many other nitrogen oxide emission control but N₂O has no its particular method. Preventing further environmental pollution and global warming, it is essential to control N₂O emission from industrial machines. In this study, the thermal decomposition experiment of N₂O gas mixture is conducted by using cylindrical reactor to figure out N₂O reduction and NO formation. And CHEMKIN calculation is conducted to figure out reaction rate and mechanism. Residence time of the N₂O gas in the reactor is set as experimental variable to imitate real SNCR system. As a result, most of the nitrogen components are converted into N2. Reaction rate of the N₂O gas decreases with N₂O emitted concentration. At 800℃ and 900℃, N₂O reduction variance and NO concentration are increased with residence time and temperature. However, at 1000℃, N₂O reduction variance and NO concentration are deceased in 40s due to forward reaction rate diminished and reverse reaction rate appeared.

In this study, the following conclusions could be obtained from the analysis of emissions contribution rates and features for contaminated emissions by 13,456 gasoline vehicles passed in the vehicle load test (ASM-idle) under the inspection year 2013 to 2017. It was confirmed that the contamination of the CO, HC, NOx by the displacement is reduced on over 3L engine. As a result of comparing the exhaust gas in the low speed idle mode and the AS2525 mode, the exhaust gas in the low speed idle mode was measured high. It is estimated that if ISG function is applied, emissions from idle condition will be reduced. NOx emissions were reduced when the engine power was above 200HP. It has been confirmed that the amount of exhaust emissions are significantly reduced for vehicles manufactured after 2004. As a result of analyzing the exhaust gas according to the season, it is judged that there is a correlation between HC and NOx according to the ambient temperature. The concentration of exhaust emission in vehicles with high accumulated distance increases, which is considered to be the result of aging of the vehicle.

This study targets to investigate thermal wave transfer in a droplet strongly coupled with acoustic pressure and its effects on combustion response. The one-dimensional vaporization model uses SRK equation of state and flash calculation method to obtain more accurate thermophysical properties and compute vapor-liquid equilibrium. Calculations of an n-pentane droplet exposed into a perturbing nitrogen gas is carried out in terms of different ambient gas pressures and wave frequencies. The thermal wave is transferred more effectively at lower frequencies, which results in the decrease in the amplitude of the response.

Two types of fuel supply method ar used in CNG vehicles. One is premixed ignition and the other is gas-jet ignition. In premixed ignition, the fuel is introduced with intake air so that homogeneous air-fuel mixture may form. The ignitability of this method depends on the global equivalence ratio. In gas-jet ignition, CNG is introduced directly into the engine combustion chamber. The overall mixture is stratified by retarded fuel injection. In this study, a visualization technique was employed to obtain fundamental properties regarding overall mixture formation of direct injected CNG fuel inside a constant volume chamber. Jet angles, penetrations and projected jet area with respect to ambient pressure are investigated. The penetration decreases apparently and the time reaching the CVC wall was delayed as the chamber pressure increases. This is caused by the higher inertia of the fluid elements that the injected fluid must accelerate and push aside. It is same to liquid fuel such as diesel and gasoline, but this phenomenon is far more prominent for the gaseous fuel.

Hourly variation of gaseous nitrous acid( HNO$_2$) concentration in Seoul air was monitored from Jan. 11 to SeP. 12, Nitrous acid concentration was determined by DS/IC over nine months of observation, HNO$_2$ range from 0.04 ppb to 5.5 ppb. Gor-tex tube as gaseous HNO$_2$generator in this study is thought to be more convenient and reproducible device than previous generator. As a result of NaOH instead of Na$_2$ CO$_3$/NaHCO$_3$ solution as the IC eluent, we could obtain more stable baseline. The concentration of the NaOH eluent was 15 mM . The limit of detection(3$\sigma$) of the liquid- Phase and gas phase nitrous acid of this method are 1.1ng/$m\ell$ , 0.04 n $\ell$ / $\ell$, respectively. The precisions evaluated by 10 replicate analysis of standard solution and standard gas generated are $\pm$1.59, $\pm$2. 89% RSD, respectively. Due to the lack of standard material for air, direct assessment of the accuracy was not possible. This study was applied to the analysis of Seoul ambient air and their results are reported herein.

The characteristics of second throat exhaust diffuser were investigated by using CFD. Because the second throat exhaust diffuser(STED) is known as the effective device for simulating high-altitude circumstance more than a cylindrical supersonic diffuser STED was analyzed. The back pressure around nozzle was reduced by entrance size of STED and it was observed that the initial strong shock was the weak oblique shock along the diffuser. Therefore the static pressure at nozzle exit was recovered as the ambient pressure and the STED worked well.

Current lead plays the part of connector between ambient temperature and liquid helium superconducting magnet. Having zero resistance characteristic, it is expected that HTS has very low thermal conductivity and generate no joule heat when fabricated to current lead. In particular, among the HTS meterials, HTS tape has high Jc and Ag-sheath of tape plays the part of stabilizer, but it has too poor mechanical strength to be applied and when fabricated as long length tape, it has tendency to decline Jc seriously. In this study, we fabricated Bi-2223 multifilamentary tapes and then made current lead with stacking type using them. Through this work, we conclude that the defect of HTS long length tape is decreased by addition the number of stacking tape and that current lead is able to operate more stably by minimizing the gap of tapes.

In this research, combustion and spray characteristics were investigated experimentally in a constant volume chamber by applying bio-diesel fuel to a common-rail system in which precise control is available for utilizing environmentally friendly properties of bio-diesel fuel. The experiment was conducted at fuel temperatures $20^{\circ}C$ and $-20^{\circ}C$ to investigate combustion characteristics of bio-diesel fuel provoking problems in fluidity specially in a low temperature. For the visualization, the experiment was carried out under various conditions of ambient pressure, injection pressure and fuel temperature. The test was made by three different types of diesel fuels, conventional diesel, BD20 and BD100. In summary, this research aims to investigate combustion characteristics in the application of bio-diesel fuels and compare the results with performance of conventional diesel fuel. This experimental data may provide fundamentals of spray and combustion of bio-diesel fuels at a low temperature and contribute to the development of bio-diesel engines in future.

CaO ceramics were prepared by conventional sintering process and their hydration behaviors were evaluated by measuring weight increment on saturated water vapor pressure at ambient temperature. CaCO$_3$ and limestone were used as CaO source materials and $Al_2$O$_3$, MgO and SiO$_2$ were added as sintering agents. $Al_2$O$_3$ was a liquid phase sintering agent to increase densification and grain growth rates, whereas MgO and SiO$_2$, densification and grain growth inhibitors. Regardless of composition, all of the prepared CaO ceramics showed the improved hydration resistance as bulk density increased. Especially, when bulk density was more than 3.0 g/㎤, there was no weight increment after 120 h of hydration. Therefore, to decrease contact area between CaO and water vapor by increasing bulk density with the $Al_2$O$_3$ sintering additive was effective for the improvement of CaO hydration resistance.
