A diesel truck of 1 ton is re-powered by a gasoline engine and the fuelling system of gasoline engine modified to gasoline/CNG bi fuel system. The engine characteristics such as fuel economy and power are evaluated by driving rest, sloping test and dynamometer. The driving test prove the driving cost is saved by 55% and the maximum speed is raised by 13%, which is mainly due to the higher calorific value of CNG. The sloping test is done on the road of which slope is 15%. The truck shows the mean velocity of 88km/h, which means that a re-powered truck is working fine. The BHP are measured by dynamometer. The power and torque produced by a re-powered truck are reduced by 13% and 14% respectively from the power of gasoline engine. The BHP reduction is one of main problems which one has to solve in near future.

Global warming is causing abnormal climates such as floods, droughts, and typhoons all over the world. According to some scientists, carbon dioxide emitted from automobiles is the main cause of global warming. To cope with this, each country is making efforts to replace the existing fossil fuel-powered engine-driven cars with electric vehicles. In order to commercialize small electric vehicles in Korea, it is necessary to solve many problems such as improvement of hill climbing capacity and improvement of power performance. In this study, we propose a proprietary model for a continuously variable transmission(CVT) of a small electric vehicle that can be operated on hills, in which a spring is mounted on a driving pulley and a driven pulley. A prototype of the CVT model using a spring was manufactured and attached to a small electric vehicle body.

초공동 수중비행체는 수중에서 시속 300 km 이상의 속력을 가진다. 초공동 수중비행체는 로켓추진을 동력으로 사용하기 때문에 초공동 수중비행체의 수치해석은 물과 수증기, 배기가스로 이루어진다상 유동을 다루게 된다. 배기가스가 수중비행체에 미치는 영향은 초공동 수중 비행체 성능연구에 중요한 부분이다. 본 연구에서는 초공동 수중비행체 주변의 유동장에 대한 수치해석을 통하여 배기가스가 비행체의 항력에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보았다. 배기가스가 없는 경우, 수중비행체를 둘러싼 초공동으로 물이 유입되는 재유입현상에 의해 수중비행체 항력의 변화가 발생한다. 추진체가 있는 경우 배출되는 가스는 재유입현상에 의한 영향을 감소시킨다. 또한 배기가스는 마하디스크를 생성하며 그 영향을 받아 항력 변화가 발생한다.
