An object of this study is to confirm application characteristics of the vortex tube apparatus for substitution of the intercooler in a common-rail diesel engine. The turbo pressure, the intake air mass flow rate and the charging air cooling ratio of the intercooler were measured in an experimental engine. The vortex tube apparatus was made after confirmation of the geometric phenomena in fundamental experiments. The vortex tube designed with fundamental data was applied to a conventional common-rail diesel engine instead of the intercooler. Its application characteristics, engine performances and emissions were investigated. From this experimental results, we suggested the vortex tube can be applied to a conventional common-rail diesel engine throughout extra complement. We can also expect the higher cooling effect, if we consider the application of the vortex tube in supercharging diesel engine without the intercooler.

It is not easy to monitor and identify all engine faults and conditions using conventional fault detection approaches like the GPA (Gas Path Analysis) method due to the nature and complexity of the faults. This study therefore focuses on a model based diagnostic method using Neural Network algorithms proposed for fault detection on a turbo shaft engine (PW 206C) selected as the power plant for a tilt rotor type unmanned aerial vehicle (Smart UAV). The model based diagnosis should be performed by a precise performance model. However component maps for the performance model were not provided by the engine manufacturer. Therefore they were generated by a new component map generation method, namely hybrid method using system identification and genetic algorithms that identifies inversely component characteristics from limited performance deck data provided by the engine manufacturer. Performance simulations at different operating conditions were performed on the PW206C turbo shaft engine using SIMULINK. In order to train the proposed BPNN (Back Propagation Neural Network), performance data sets obtained from performance analysis results using various implanted component degradations were used. The trained NN system could reasonably detect the faulted components including the fault pattern and quantity of the study engine at various operating conditions.

It is a present situation that the control on automobile emission is getting more restrictive and also the regulations for emission are changing greatly up to level of those advanced foreign countries. Specially, it has been many years that exhaust gases from gasoline automobile rather than from diesel is the major object concerned by Korea and other countries, and it is strongly required on the reduction techniques on harmful NOx and PM among those compositions. Thus, this research focused on the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and the target for this research is heavy-duty turbo-diesel engine with Cooled EGR. Furthermore, this research has been made efforts to accomplish the regulation on emission for heavy duty diesel engine.

This paper introduces the part of efforts to develop a derivative type turbo-shaft engine from an existing baseline engine for multi-purpose helicopters targeting at 4000kg of take-off weight for 10-12 passengers. As a first step in meeting the development goal of increasing the output power to 840hp from 720hp with minimum modification, two stage axial compressor was redesigned to obtain the higher pressure ratio by removing the inlet guide vane and increasing the chord length. As a result, two stage axial compressors were designed to have the flow rate of 3.04 kg/s, the pressure ratio of 2.01 and the adiabatic efficiency of $85\%$. Its performance tests were carried out and verification of test results and redesign are under progress. Aerodynamic and structural analyses of the preliminary design are mainly described in this paper.

This study has focused on using fuel injections as variables for measuring performance and reducing exhaust gas in turbo-charger diesel engine. In experiments, we changed nozzle hole diameter, diameter of an injection pipe, and injection timing as variable. The results show that torque. fuel consumption and smoke are reduced as nozzle hole diameter decreases, while NOx increases. When the diameter of injector is reduced, torque, fuel consumption and smoke are deteriorated, but NOx is decreased. In addition, when the time for injection is advanced. torque, fuel consumption and smoke are improved, but the density of NOx is increased.

가스터빈 엔진은 운용시간이 축적됨에 따라 압축기, 연소기, 터빈 등 엔진의 여러 핵심 구성요소의 성능이 저하하게 된다. 따라서, 가스터빈 엔진의 운용에 있어서 높은 신뢰성과 운용비용의 최소화는 엔진 제작자나 사용자 모두에게 있어 중요한 문제이다 본 연구에서는 상용 프로그램에 의존하지 않고, 각 성능 변수들과 측정 변수들과의 열역학적 민감도를 이용하여 엔진성능진단 코드를 개발하였으며, 터보축 엔진에 적용하여 엔진의 단일 성능 저하를 예측하였다.

The aim in this study is to develop the combined EGR system with a non-thermal plasma reactor for reducing exhaust emissions and improving fuel economy in turbo intercooler ECU common-rail diesel engines. In this study, the characteristics of soot, CO and $CO_2$ emissions under four kinds of engine loads are experimentally investigated by using a four-cycle, four-cylinder, direct injection type, water-cooled turbo intercooler ECU common-rail diesel engine with a combined plasma exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) system operating at three kinds of engine speeds. The EGR and non-thermal plasma reactor system are used to reduce $NO_x$ emissions, and the non-thermal plasma reactor and turbo intercooler system are used to reduce soot and THC emissions. The plasma system is a flat-to-flat type reactor operated by a plasma power supply. The fuel is sprayed by pilot and main injections at the variable injection timing between BTDC $15^{\circ}$ and ATDC $1^{\circ}$ according to experimental conditions. It is found that soot emissions with increasing EGR rate are increased, but are decreased as the applied electrical voltage of the non-thermal plasma reactor is elevated at the same engine speed and load. Results also show that CO and $CO_2$ emissions are increased as EGR rate is elevated, and CO emissions are increased, but $CO_2$ emissions are decreased as the applied electrical voltage of the non-thermal plasma reactor is elevated at the same engine speed and load.

포일 베어링은 공기의 점성과 포일 형태의 구조물을 이용하는 비접촉 베어링으로서, 구름베어링에 비하여 별도의 윤활장치가 필요 없고, 무한수명이 가능하며, 구름베어링을 사용할 수 없는 초고속 회전체와 50$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온 환경에도 적용이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 최근에는 전통적으로 널리 사용되어 왔던 소형 터보기기 분야뿐만 아니라, 소형 가스터빈 엔진과 같이 극한 온도 조건에서도 작동할 수 있는 포일 베어링에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 포일 공기 베어링 원리에 대한 소개와 함께, 현재 당사에서 볼베어링을 사용하여 개발 중인 65마력급 무인기용 터보샤프트 엔진의 고온부 베어링으로 적용하기 위한 가능성 연구를 수행하였다.

가스터빈 엔진의 높은 신뢰성과 운용비의 최소화는 제작자나 사용자 모두에게 중요한 문제이며, 정성적, 정량적 성능저하 예측을 포함한 다양한 성능진단기법이 시도되고 있다. 탈설계점에서의 성능진단은 설계점 성능진단에 비해 학습, 또는 처리해야 할 데이터 규모가 방대함에 따라 예측오차와 수렴도면에서 해결되어야 할 문제점들을 안고 있다. 따라서 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 가스경로해석 기법을 적용한 엔진성능진단코드를 개발하였으며, 이를 스마트 무인기용 터보축 엔진에 적용하여 설계점 및 고도 변화에 따른 탈설계점 영역에 대하여 단일 성능저하를 정량적으로 예측하여 GSP를 통한 예측결과와 비교하였다.
