국제해사기구(IMO)에서2016년에 건조되는 선박부터 Tier III 규제를 예고하고 있다. 이 규 제를 만족하기 위하여 엔진 전처리 기술 및 후처리 기술 개발과 실증 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이중 SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) 반응을 이용한 질소산화물 저감기술이 80% 이상의 Tier III NOx 규제치를 만족할 수 있는 유일한 기술이다. 육상 플랜트에서 실증과 검증이 확보된 SCR 기술의 선박 엔진에 대한 적용을 위해서는 선박의 급격한 운전조건 변화와 엔진에 의한 저주파 진동에 대한 촉매 내구성 확보가 중요하다. 본 연구에서 기공 분포면에서 마이크로 기공보다는 메죠 및 매크로 기공쪽으로 구조를 개선함으로써 촉매 사용시 우려되는 배기가스중의 Soot 또는 2차 합성물질에 의한 촉매기공 막힘을 최대한 방지한 상용 SCR 촉매를 개발하였다. 또한 촉매에 대한 내구성 실증을 위하여 현재 운항 선박(한진피츠버그호)에 장착하여 실증 실험을 수행하였다. 기존 corrugate 타입의 촉매보다 40% 정도의 부피 감소와 차압 감소를 달성하였고 이로 인하여 선박내 제한된 공간에 효율적으로 SCR 시스템 설치가 가능할 것으로 생각된다. 그리고 본 연구에서는 가이드 베인 설치 없이 유동 균일화를 달성하여 반응기 전체의 크기 축소가 가능하다. 이는 추가적인 비용 및 압력 손실 저감, 유지 보수 공간 확보 등의 장점이 있다.

A gasoline-fueled stratified charge compression ignition (SCCI) engine with both direct fuel injection and intake temperature and compression ratio was examined. The fuel was injected directly by using the high temperature resulting from heating intake port. With this injection strategy, the SCCI combustion region was expanded dramatically without any increase in NOx emissions which were seen in the case of compression stroke injection. Injection timing during the intake temperature was found to be an important parameter that affects the SCCI region width. The effect of mixture stratification and the effect of fuel reformation can be utilized to reduce the required intake temperature for suitable SCCI combustion under each set of engine speed and compression ratio conditions.

This research focused on the spray and distribution characteristics of urea solution by applying flow visualization techniques and did durability and driver test on injectors as well. The spray characteristics of urea solution was observed by CCD camera. Also, the distribution characteristics of urea solution was evaluated quantitatively as well by using 3D laser scanner equipment. It was considered that it was reasonable to use the injector for gasoline engine in order to inject the urea. The best distribution chart result was observed near 45cm distance difference between catalyst and urea spray injector. As a result of trapped urea distribution chart analysis, optimal pressure and volumetric flow rates of air and urea were derived in order to improve the distribution of Urea. This information may contribute to provide fundamental data in the future.

Recently, Performance and fuel efficiency of gasoline engines have been improved by adopting direct injection (DI) system instead of port fuel injection (PFI) system. However, injecting gasoline fuel directly into the cylinder significantly reduces the time available for mixing and evaporation. Consequently, particulate matters(PM) emissions increase. Moreover, as the emission regulations are getting more stringent, not only the mass but also the total number of PM should be reduced to satisfy the Euro VI regulations. Increasing the fuel injection pressure is one of the methods to meet this challenge. In this study, the effects of increased fuel injection pressures on combustion and emission characteristics were experimentally examined at several part load conditions in a 1.6 liter commercial gasoline direct injection engine. The main combustion durations decreased about $2{\sim}3^{\circ}$ in crank angle base by increasing the fuel injection pressure due to enhanced air-fuel mixing characteristics. The exhaust emissions and number concentration distributions of PM with particle sizes were also compared. Due to enhanced combustion characteristics, THC emissions decreased, whereas NOx emissions increased. Also, the number concentrations of PM, larger than 10 nm, also significantly decreased.

A swirler with turbulence generator is designed and manufactured for generating many small-scale eddies in the combustor which contribute to enhancing mixing effect between fuel and air. The method results in not only the disadvantage of pressure loss but also the advantage of promoting combustion and reducing NOx. For the purpose of the study, four kinds of swirler with different turbulence generator area (0%, 3%, 7%, and 12% of reducing flow area) are designed to confirm the effect of mixing according the variation in the area of the turbulence generator. The mixing of combustor in the radial direction is significantly improved and the distributions of flames and temperature are well distributed throughout the cross section of a combustor as area of swirl generator is increased.

Aircraft measurements have been executed for the purpose of monitoring the long range transported air pollution and estimation of air pollutant in/out-flux over the Yellow sea. Total 74 missions of measurements have been done since 1997, mainly in spring and fall. The main study domain was over $124^{\circ}$E $/sim$ $124^{\circ}$E, $35^{\circ}$N $/sim$ $37^{\circ}$N below 3,000m. In long-term trends, mixing ratios of $SO_{2}$N were around 2 ppbv expect in summer ( < 1 ppbv). NOx exhibited 24 ppbv and have no clear annual trends over the Yellow Sea. The concentrations of 03 were 51, 58, 41 ppbv in spring, summer and fall-winter, respectively. Backward trajectory was performed for three days to investigate the source regions of the air mass. Six regions were divided around Korea peninsular centering at $36^{\circ}$N, $126^{\circ}$E. I, II, III, IV and V regions represents in sequence northeast China and Siberia, Sandong peninsula and Balhae gulf, Sanghi and southern China, the south Pacific included Jeju island and the East sea included Japan. L region correspond to the airmass from Korea peninsula. Influx of $SO_{2}$N was approximately five times higher than outflux in yearly flux variation and showed a decreasing long-term trend since 1998. NOx outflux was average 0.095 ton/km/hr and three times higher than $SO_{2}$ outflux. In/out flux of 03 showed even distribution in yearly basis except 2002 (influx 5.45 ton/km/hr). The transported amounts from I, II, III regions were much higher than those from other region. In seasonal flux variation, influx levels of gas phases were the lowest in summer and the levels gradually increased from fall toward spring. As a result, transport of pollutants begins from fall and prevails in winter and spring.

Surface ozone is produced by photochemical reactions of nitrogen oxides(NOx) and volatile organic compounds(VOCs) emitted from vehicles and industrial sites, adversely affecting vegetation and the human body. In South Korea, ozone is monitored in real-time at stations(i.e., point measurements), but it is difficult to monitor and analyze its continuous spatial distribution. In this study, surface ozone concentrations were interpolated to have a spatial resolution of 1.5km every hour using the stacking ensemble technique, followed by a 5-fold cross-validation. Base models for the stacking ensemble were cokriging, multi-linear regression(MLR), random forest(RF), and support vector regression(SVR), while MLR was used as the meta model, having all base model results as additional input variables. The results showed that the stacking ensemble model yielded the better performance than the individual base models, resulting in an averaged R of 0.76 and RMSE of 0.0065ppm during the study period of 2020. The surface ozone concentration distribution generated by the stacking ensemble model had a wider range with a spatial pattern similar with terrain and urbanization variables, compared to those by the base models. Not only should the proposed model be capable of producing the hourly spatial distribution of ozone, but it should also be highly applicable for calculating the daily maximum 8-hour ozone concentrations.

Recently, the level of fine dust and ultrafine dust has reached its highest level, threatening the public's health. If the air purifier was not operated indoors, natural ventilation would not be possible. In this study, photocatalyst is applied to building materials to purify air in a passive manner. In order to use photocatalyst for LEFC(Light Emotion Friendly Concrete), it is necessary to secure self-consolidating capability. Therefore, self-consolidating performance was evaluated by slump test, J-ring test and L-box test with UHPC materials applied. Based on these results, the mixture proportion was determined, and the mechanical performance was evaluated by compressive and flexural tests. Concrete blocks were constructed with a fabrication method that improved the existing process of making LEFC. Also, the concrete block was emptied as a way to reduce the use of expensive photocatalyst. Finally, in order to identify the distribution of TiO₂, an EDS analysis was performed.
