$Fuel/N_2$ and fuel/air mixtures were treated with non-thermal DBD plasma and the changes in characteristics of laminar diffusion flame have been observed. Flame of $Fuel/N_2$ mixture generated more soot under plasma condition while less amount of soot was formed from fuel/air mixture flame. Luminescence spectrum and gas chromatography results confirmed that plasma energy converts a fraction of fuel molecules into radicals, which then form $C_2$, $C_3$, $C_4$ and higher hydrocarbon under no oxygen condition or turn into CO, $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ when oxygen is present.

In this work, ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) were prepared by the conventional templating method using mesoporous silica (SBA-15) for Pt-Ru catalyst supports in fuel cells. The influence of surface modification on carbon supports on the electrochemical activities of Pt-Ru/OMCs was investigated with different pH. The neutral-treated OMCs (N-OMCs), base-treated OMCs (B-OMCs), and acid-treated OMCs (A-OMCs) were prepared by treating OMCs with 2 M $C_6H_6$, 2 M KOH, and 2 M $H_3PO_4$, respectively. The surface characteristic of the carbon supports were determined X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The electrochemical activities of the Pt-Ru catalysts had been enhanced when the OMCs supports were treated by basic or neutral agents, while the electrochemical activities had been decayed for the A-OMCs supported Pt-Ru.

A reformer, which produces hydrogen from natural gas, plays a major role for producing quality hydrogen to fuel-cell system. In this paper, fuel processor is designed to deliver hydrogen(75%) from the reformer to 200W fuel-cell system, and the electrical output power of the fuel-cells is examined by being injected different hydrogen concentrations to the system. We verified that the output power characteristics of the fuel-cells with 75% reformed hydrogen was lower about 7% than the case of pure hydrogen supplied. The type of reformer in this experiment takes SMR(Steam methane reforming) process, and the temperature variation characteristics of reforming process by reactions are examined in operation.

In order to analyze the effect of the chemical structure and the cetane number of reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic energy irradiation, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer$(^1H-NMR)$ was used. From the study, following conclusive remarks can be made. 1) Branch Index(BI), aromatics percentages, and alpha methyl radical$(H_{\alpha})$ of the reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic energy irradiation decreased more than the conventional ones. 2) All the cetane numbers which were calculated from carbon type structure and hydrogen type distribution of the reformed diesel fuels increased more than the conventional ones. 3) It is more reasonable to predict cetane number equation from carbon type structure than from hydrogen type distribution. 4) BI, aromatics percentages, and $H_{\alpha}$ on both for conventional fuel and reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic energy irradiation are inversely proportional to cetane number fur these fuels.

In this paper, the effect of the ultrasonic energy on the diesel engine's smoke reduction has been investigated for indirect injection diesel engine. The smoke concentration of the ultrasonically reformed diesel fuel was reduced remarkably in comparison with conventional diesel fuel. And in-cylinder pressure, heat release rate and mass fraction burned was improved but combustion duration was decreased. However, The combustion durations and the smoke concentrations of both diesel fuels were proportional to the increases of engine loads. Also, When the combustion duration has been increasing, the smoke emission has been augmenting in the shape of the exponential functions.

Pd catalyst have been used in hydrogenation, oxidation, and low temperature combustion reaction. Recently, it has been candidated as a possible reagents in the partial oxidation of methanol reformers of the fuel cell. Pd catalysts, even though it is very precious and expensive, catalytic functioning is good, but it still need to be improved in the matter of durability and low catalytic activity after calcination. In this study, we synthesize the improved Pd catalyst and study their chemical functioning.

Hydrogen as an energy carrier in fuel cell offers perhaps the largest potential benefits of reduced emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases. The generation of high-purity hydrogen from hydrocarbon fuels is essential for efficient operation of fuel cell. Reduction of carbon monoxide to an acceptable level of 10ppm involves high temperature and low temperature water gas shift (WGS), followed by selective oxidation of residual carbon monoxide. The WGS reactor was designed and tested in this study to produce hydrogen-rich gas with CO to less than 5000 ppm. In the water gas shift operation, gas emerges from the reformer is taken through a high temperature shift (HTS) catalyst to reduce the CO concentration to about $2{\sim}4%$ followed to about 5000 ppm via a low temperature shift (LTS) catalyst.

This is an experimental study on characteristics of engine performance and discharged materials in common-rail type diesel engine. The bio-diesel fuel is mixed with the diesel fuel in common use at the ratio of 20% or 100%. The diesel fuel and blended fuel is irradiated by ultrasonic wave energy. The diese1 fuel, blended fuel, reformed diesel fuel and reformed blended fuel by ultrasonic wave energy are applied to the experimental engine individually. The results are compared with one of the diesel fuel in common use and analyzed.
