Micro- or nano-size particles are required to improve the combustion efficiency and stability in the case of solid explosives and propellants. The micro-structural properties of an energetic material strongly influence the combustion and explosion behavior. However, the traditional size reduction techniques, including milling, are not suitable for production of ultra-fine size particles. As an alternative to the traditional techniques, various re-crystallization processes based on supercritical fluids have recently been proposed. Supercritical fluids are fluids at temperatures and pressures above their critical point. In principle, they do not give problems of solvent contamination as they are completely released from the solute when the decompression occurs. Rapid Expansion Supercritical Solutions(RESS) and Supercritical Anti-Solvent Process(GAS/SAS) are representatives of a nano-size particle formation process of energetic materials using supercritical fluids. In this work, various fine particle formation processes using supercritical fluids are discussed and the results are presented.

나노 및 마이크로 크기의 알루미늄(Al) 분진은 매우 높은 연소열을 가지고 있어서 로켓 추진체와 폭발물 등을 제조하는 원료로 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 서로 다른 크기의 입자경 (70 nm, 100 nm, $6{\mu}m$, $15{\mu}m$)을 가진 알루미늄 분진을 사용하여 열분해 위험성을 실험적으로 검토하였다. 이를 위해 열중량분석장치(TGA)를 사용하여 승온속도의 변화에 따른 열분해특성을 조사하고 입경이 다른 나노 및 마이크로 크기의 Al에서의 중량개시온도(Temperature of weight gain)로부터 발화온도를 추정하였다. 승온속도가 동일한 조건에서 Al분진의 중량개시온도는 입경이 증가할수록 또한 공기중 승온속도가 증가할수록 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이러한 실험결과로부터 Al분진의 열분해 위험성은 분진 입자경의 증가와 함께 감소할 것으로 추정되었다.

An experimental study has been conducted to clarify the effect of vapor on droplet evaporation. Droplets of water, ethanol, n-hexadecane and n-heptane were exposed in air stream. Temperature, pressure, and flow velocity in the ambient air are 470K, 1 atm, and 2m/s, respectively. Measurements are carried out for the wide range of water vapor concentration$(0%\sim40%)$. To obtain the time histories of droplet diameter, suspended droplet in hot and humid air stream was synchronized with a back flash light, and enlarged droplet images were taken on a CCD camera. With the vapor concentration increasing, the evaporation rate constant of water droplet decrease slightly and the droplet of ethanol and n-heptane increase actively. The evaporation rate constant of n-hexadecane which has higher boiling point than water increases within around 30% of the concentration.

In this study, the combustion characteristics and durability of a diesel engine using emulsified fuel was investigated. Water was used in oil type emulsified fuel. In order to understand the effect of emulsified fuel in a wide range of engine running conditions, D-13 mode was selected as a test condition, and a durability test was included to understand the long-term effect of water. Combustion pressure in a cylinder, exhaust emissions, specific fuel consumption, sound level and maximum torque were measured. NOx and PM were simultaneously reduced and the specific fuel consumption was increased and decreased at low and high loads, respectively. There was no trouble and any damage on the parts of the cylinder during a 500 hour durability test.

The droplet behavior of 83.9 wt.% HAN water solution was investigated experimentally with various ambient temperature and nitrogen environment. At the initial stage of evaporation under thermal decomposition temperature of HAN, gradual decreasing of droplet diameter was observed. After that, the droplet started to expand due to the internal pressure build up by water nucleation inside the droplet. The micro explosion was observed at higher temperature than the decomposition temperature of HAN and the remaining droplet showed similar behavior of single composition droplet. The decreasing rate was augmented as the ambient temperature increasing.

In this experiment, a heterogeneous droplet consisted of de-ionized water and olive oil was made through two 31G injection needles. The injection flow rate was $50{\mu}{\ell}/min$ and the droplet size was 2 mm. The droplet was impinged onto a sapphire plate which was heated up to $300^{\circ}C$ by a heater. Two high speed cameras were used for visualization, and the frame rate was 20,000 fps. A 150W metal halite lamp was used for illumination. The dropping height was fixed to 20 mm and the corresponding Weber number was 10.6 based on water. Due to different boiling points of two liquids, partial boiling features of heterogeneous droplet was observed. At the Leidenfrost condition, micro explosion phenomenon has occurred.

Many research works have been carried out to investigate the factors governing the performance of diesel engine. The area of the study has been focused on reducing both of NOx and smoke because of many difficulties to reduce them simultaneously in diesel engines. One of the efforts is an application of EGR technology to reduce NOx emission, which is very effective, but increases other emissions and makes fuel economy worse. In order to solve the problem, EGR is employed with water emulsified fuel and tested in this paper. Emulsified fuel is produced by centrifugal mixer and the amount of water is controlled by water injector and pulse generator, and EGR rate is controlled with 6-step control valve. The chamber pressure, fuel consumption and emissions are measured with various values of both EGR and water mixing rate, The results show that NOx emission is reduced much rather and smoke is also reduced simultaneously.

에멀젼연료(Emulsified fuel)와 EGR(Exhaust Gas Recirculation)는 디젤엔진으로부터 발생하는 NOx를 저감시키는 효과적인 방법들이다. 일반적으로, EGR 방법은 열적, 화학적 그리고 희석효과의 세 가지 다른 경로에 의하여 디젤 엔진의 연소에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그중 특히 열적효과는 흡기 중의 이산화탄소와 수분에 의한 열용량의 증가와 관련되어 있다. 한편, 물의 증발열과 마이크로 폭발(Micro-explosion)을 이용하는 에멀젼연료는 디젤엔진의 배기 배출물을 저감시키는 효과적인 방법으로 인식되어 왔다. 본 연구에서 저자는 함수율 20%의 에멀젼연료와 EGR율 30%의 사용에 의한 연소와 배기 배출물 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 그리고 연료 분사 패턴 제어의 효과에 대하여 조사하였다.
