To theoretically predict knock occurrence in S. I. engine as a function of engine design and operating parameters, transient local temperature and pressure, mixture density of flame front in combustion period are calculated. We next determined normal combustion period and auto ignition period of end gas using the prediction method on occurrence of spark knock which we suggested. We predict knock occurrence in S. I. engine by comparing consecutively normal combustion period with the auto ignition period of end gas in combustion period. Engine design and operating parameters such as compression ratio, engine speed, spark timing, inlet temperature and pressure are taken into account in this calculations. The predicted result are well matched with the experimental results in turbocharged engine. Therefore, this method will provide the systematic guideline for designing engines in view of knocking limits.

The direct-injection stratified-charge engine has the advantages of higher thermal efficiency and less CO and $NO_x$ emission levels than conventional spark ignition engines. However, its actual utilization is prevented by high unburned hydrocarbon emission levels during light-load operations. In this paper, fundamental studies were carried out using a pancake type constant volume bomb. The effects of intensification of local premixing by tangential and radial fuel injection were examined experimentally. Unburned hydrocarbon emission levels with radial fuel injection were shown to be lower than those of tangential fuel injection cases. The stratification and mixing process of fuel jet and combustion process were observed by schlieren photography.

Natural gas is a promising alternative fuel of internal combustion engines. In this paper, the combustion and emission characteristics were investigated on a natural gas engine at two different fuel injection timings during the intake stroke. The results show that fuel injection timing affects combustion processes. The optimum spark timing (MBT) achieving the maximum indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) is related to fuel injection timing and air fuel ratio. At MBT spark timing, late fuel injection timing delays ignition timing and prolongs combustion duration in most cases. But fuel injection timing has little effect on IMEP at fixed lambdas. The coefficient of variation (COV) of IMEP is dependent on air fuel ratio, throttle positions and fuel injection timings at MBT spark timing. The COV of IMEP increases with lambda in most cases. Late fuel injection timings can reduce the COV of IMEP at part loads. Moreover, engine-out CO and total hydrocarbon (THC) emissions can be reduced at late fuel injection timing.

Cyclic variability has long been recognized as limiting the range of operating conditions of spark ignition engines, in particular, under lean and highly diluted operation conditions. The cyclic combustion variations can be characterized by the pressure parameters, combustion parameters, and flame front parameters. The coefficient of variation in indicated mean effective pressure ($COV_{IMEP}$) defines the cyclic variability in indicated work per cycle, and it has been found that vehicle driveability problems usually result when $COV_{IMEP}$ exceeds about 10%. For analysis of the cyclic variability in SI engines at idling, the results show that cyclic variability by the $COV_{IMEP}$ or the coefficient of variation in maximum pressure can be explained and may be consequently reduced by the help of the optimum spark timings.

This review will be concentrated on the spray characteristics of biobutanol and its blends fuels in internal combustion engines including compression ignition, spark ignition and gas turbine engines. Butanol can be produced by fermentation from sucrose-containing feedstocks, starchy materials and lignocellulosic biomass. Among four isomers of butanol, n-butanol and iso-butanol has been used in CI and SI engines. This is due to higher octane rating and lower water solubility of both butanol compared with other isomers. The researches on the spray characteristics of neat butanol can be classified into the application to CI and SI engines, particularly GDI engine. Two empirical correlations for the prediction of spray angle for butanol as a function of Reynolds number was newly suggested. However, the applicability for the suggested empirical correlation is not yet proved. The butanol blended fuels used for the investigation of spray characteristics includes butanol-biodiesel blend, butanol-gasoline blend, butano-jet A blend and butanol-other fuel blends. Three blends such as butanol/ethanol, butanol/heptane and butanol/heavy fuel oil blends are included in butanol-other fuel blends. Even though combustion and emission characteristics of butanol/diesel fuel blend in CI engines were broadly investigated, study on spray characteristics of butanol/diesel fuel blend could not be found in the literature. In addition, the more study on the spray characteristics of butanol /gasoline blend is required.

지난 최근 몇 년 동안 내연기관 엔진의 여러 가지 타입의 성능, 효율, 배기가스 특성을 잘 설명해 줄 수 있는 흥미있는 수학적인 모델이 다양하게 제시되고 있다. 이러한 다양한 양상의 엔진 작동의 모의실험에 있어서 주요한 요소가 엔진 연소 과정의 모델이다. 연소모델은 주로 세 가지 분류로 세분화 되어지고 있다. 즉, 제로 차원적, 유사 차원적, 다차원 모델로 나눌 수 있다. 제로 차원모델은 열역학 제1법칙에 근거하여 만들어졌고, 시간은 단지 독립 변수이다. 본 연구는 제로 차원 모델에 의하여 스파크 점화 기관의 연소 특성을 제시하려는 그 목적이 있다.

Stoichiometric combustion in spark ignition (SI) engines has an advantage of meeting future stringent emission regulations. However, the drawback of the combustion is a lower thermal efficiency than that of lean burn. In this study, energy losses in a natural gas stoichiometric SI engine generator were analyzed to establish a strategy for improving the generating efficiency (GE). The energy losses were investigated based on dynamometer and load bank experiments. As the intake manifold pressure increased in the dynamometer experiment, the brake thermal efficiency (BTE) increased mainly due to the reduction in the pumping and mechanical losses. In the load bank experiment, the generating power and GE increased with the increased intake manifold pressure. The generating power and GE were lower than the brake power and BTE due to the cooling fan power and the losses in the generator.

After-treatment system for gasoline direct injection engines should be considered due to the regulation standard for particle number emitted from spark ignition engine vehicles. A metal foam particulate filter, which is thought to be more proper for gasoline engines for its unique filtration and heat resistance characteristics, has been evaluated via engine dynamometer tests.

Fast burning achieves higher efficiency, and reduces cycle variations which is able to improve vehicle driveability. Furthermore, the greater resistance to knock with fast burning can allow the fuel economy advantages associated with higher compression ratio to be realized. One way of increasing the combustion speed is to enhance the performance of ignition systems which were able to reduce the early period of combustion. It is well known that shortening the initial stage of combustion also reduces the cyclic variations. This literature survey deals with the papers which have studied the ignition process or various ignition systems. Those systems increasing the combustion speed, extending the lean misfire limit, reducing the exhaust gas and stabilizing the operating condition of the spark ignition engine by modifying the ignition process or increasing ignition energy.

압축착화 방식의 디젤엔진은 스파크점화 방식의 가솔린 엔진에 비하여 열효율이 높아 연비가 향상되고 그 결과 $CO_2$ 저감효과도 높다. 또한 디젤엔진은 점화계통 장치의 불필요 등 기존 엔진의 개조비용이 적어 세탄가가 높은 바이오연료의 적용엔진으로서 적합한 장점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 식물성 자트로파유, 대두유 2종의 바이오연료와 경유연료의 분무특성을 비교 분석하였다. 실험변수로서는 분사압력과 자트로파 연료의 경우는 혼합비율(BD3, BD5, BD20)을 달리하였다. 분사압력은 500bar, 1000bar, 1500bar 및 1600bar로 설정하고 분사기간은 500ms로 동일하게 하였다. 본 연구의 결과로서, 사용한 바이오디젤 연료의 종류 및 분사압력 변화에 대한 분무거동특성(분무각)의 변화는 뚜렷하지 않으나, 고압분사의 경우가 분무각이 약간 감소하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
