최근 연료 가격의 상승으로 자동차용 연료에 벤젠, 톨루엔 등을 혼합한 가짜휘발유가 많이 유통되고 있다. 가짜휘발유는 벤젠, 톨루엔 등의 방향족물질을 혼합하거나 경유, 등유 등을 혼합하여 사용한다. 방향족 화합물이 많이 함유된 휘발유를 장기간 사용할 경우 차량의 고무부품을 팽윤시켜 연료의 누출 등에 따른 화재 발생의 가능성이 높으며, 톨루엔은 열함량이 작기 때문에 연소효율 저하로 연비를 악화시킨다. 또한 자동차 연료의 조성은 배출가스에도 많은 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 가짜휘발유 사용에 따른 배출가스 영향을 정확히 파악하기 위해 휘발유 중 방향족 함량이 다른 세종류의 연료를 사용하여 배출가스 및 연비에 대한 영향을 조사하였다.

In this study the leakage current measurement method based on a porous ceramic is applied to check the conductive substance caused by the ionized particles. By using engine and chassis dynamometer and an experiment vehicle, in which the hydrocarbon sensor (HC sensor) was exposed to the exhaust gas to create the electrical signal, the HC sensor in the exhaust line checked the conductive ions in emission gas. Generally the output electrical signal of HC sensor is followed with amount of hydrocarbon in the experiments in cold start and operation. By combining the electrical signal, a measure of conductivity of exhaust gas with hydrocarbon can be provided by OBD (On Board Diagnosis) II and EMS (Engine Management System).

Vehicle weight reduction is a known strategy to improve fuel efficiency and strengthen exhaust gas regulation. The use of high strength steel can satisfy safety, efficiency, emission, manufacturability, durability, and cost requirements. However, springback of high strength steel results in undesired shape defects. Springback is one of the most important issues of high strength steel for many applications in an automobile. Servo press has various capabilities to improve defects, process conditions, and productivity problems when forming a high strength steel. Especially, servo press can be set to function with variable slide motion in a single operation. In this study, the effect of servo press slide motion on 980MPa high strength steel was investigated through U-bending test.

In order to satisfy the regulations concerned with the noise emission of fork-lift trucks and thereby increase export to the western countries, a noise reduction technique should be developed in the early design stage. In this paper, several noise sources are identified using the sound suppression method and sound intensity measurement, and their contributions to the sound levels at the operator's ears and at the distance of 7m from the vehicle are studied. For each of the major noise producting components, noise abatement alternative are suggested and their effects are analyzed.

Diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been developed to optimize engine out emission, especially particulate matter (PM). One of the main important factors for developing the DPF is estimation of soot mass being accumulated inside the DPF. Evaluation of pressure drop over the DPF is a simple way to estimate the accumulated soot mass but its accuracy is known to be limited to certain vehicle operating conditions. The method to compensate drawback is adoption of integrating time history of the engine out PM and burning soot. Present study demonstrates current status of the soot estimation methods including the results from the engine test benches and vehicles.

Recently, air pollution is increased according to increase of vehicle. So many countries are studying about DOC for diesel emission decrease. However, there are many difficulty in applying to DOC . In this study, SOx exhaust gas equipped with DOC was studied and we obtained several test results as following. First, in diesel oxidation catalyst, additives such as Pt is very effective for 503 and sulfate. Second, the oxidative activity for 502 has decreased to add such as Pt and the decrease of 502 is effect for the reduction of PM in high temperature . And finally, in high temperature, concentration of SOx is increased and temperature is affected by process from SOB to 503, whereas engine performance and fuel consumption are not affected by equipped DOC.

A CRDI diesel engine used to commercial vehicle was fueled with diesel fuel and 5% biodiesel blended fuel (BDF 5%) and tested at the Seoul-10 mode for 150 hours. Engine dynamometer testing was completed at regularly scheduled intervals to monitor the engine performance and exhaust emissions. To check the engine parts (valve, injector), the engine was inspected after 150 hours running test. It was concluded that there was no unusual deterioration of the engine, or the changes in engine power (below 2.6%), smoke (below 6.2%), NOx (below 2%) and durability characteristics in spite of operation of 150 hours run with BDF 5%. The difference of kinetic viscosity for engine oil (before and after durability testing) was below 0.36%

The control delays at signal intersections have proved the source of numerous vehicular and environmental complications. Control delays both directly and indirectly hinder time- and cost-effective driving by extending the duration of time spent on the road and exhausting excessive amounts of fuel. They furthermore cause traffic congestion, thereby raising overall emission levels. It is therefore imperative to reduce control delays in order to achieve time and fuel economy and reduce vehicle-related pollution. The following study accordingly uses genetic algorithms to optimize traffic signals in congested environments.

The engine performance and combustion characteristics of methanol blended fuel of spark ignition engine were discussed on the basics of experimental investigation. The effects of methanol blending fuel on combustion in cylinder were investigated under various conditions of engine cycle and blending fuel on combustion in cylinder were investigated tinder various conditions of engine cycle and blending ratios. The results showed thai the engine performance was influenced by the methanol blending ratio and the variations of operating conditions test engine. The increase of fuel temperature brought on the improvement of combustion characteristics such as cylinder pressure. the rate of pressure rise and heat release in an engine. The burning rate of fuel-air mixture, the exhaust emissions and the other characteristics of performance were discussed also.

Over the past years, many research works have been carried out to investigate the factors which govern the performance of diesel engine. The air pollutant emission from the diesel engine is still a significant environmental concern in many countries. In the present study, new system of smoke reduction of diesel engine is proposed. This new system is using vacuum equipment and filter included moisture for capture smoke. To verificate new system experiments were performed at diesel vehicle. As a result it is founded that smoke is decreased.
