Combustion phenomenon in diesel engine is mainly governed by characteristics of fuel injection and fuel spray system affected by its dimensions and operating condition. Fuel supply system is consisted of fuel injection pump, high pressure pipe and injection nozzle. In order to develope the more economical diesel fuel injection system, it is in need to carryout the fairly wide range experiments, which is quite impossible. Therefore, theoretical analysis for the numberous parameters is powerful method in this case. In the present study, equations of continuity of fuel oil in fuel injection system are solved to obtain the flow and pressure variation in diesel fuel system affected by injection pump speed, plunger diameter, pipe length and nozzle opening pressure.

Computational investigation was conducted to examine the performance of a high pressure common-rail fuel injection system which is used to power a passenger car direct injection (Dl) diesel engine. The pipe flows were modeled by one dimensional wave equation and solved by implicit FDM Each volume of injector was considered as chambers with orifice nozzle in connections. These simulation results were compared with the experimental data of Ganser Hydromag. The comparison of needle life and rate of injection between simulation data and experimental data showed quite a good agreement Different shape of injection rate can be made by adjusting the size of inlet orifice and exit orifice in the piston chamber The pilot injection was accomplished by adjusting command signal.

The present study is mainly motivated to investigate the vaporization, auto-ignition and spray combustion processes in DI diesel engine using DME and n-heptane. In order to realistically simulate the dimethyl ether (DME) spray dynamics and vaporization characteristics in high-pressure and high-temperature environment, the high-pressure vaporization model has been utilized. The interaction between chemistry and turbulence is treated by employing the Representative Interaction Flamelet (RIF) model. The detailed chemistry of 336 elementary steps and 78 chemical species is used for the DME/air reaction. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussion has been made for the distinctly different combustion characteristics of DME diesel engine in term of vaporization, ignition delay, pollutant formation, and heat release rate.

The vaporization characteristics and spray combustion processes in the high-pressure environment are numerically investigated. This study employ the high-pressure vaporization model together with the state-of-art spray submodels. The present high-pressure vaporization model can account for transient liquid heating, circulation effect inside the droplet forced convection, Stefan flow effect, real gas effect and ambient gas solubility in the liquid droplets. Computations are carried out for the evaporating sprays, the evaporating and burning sprays, and the spray combustion processes of the turbocharged diesel engine. Numerical results indicate that the high-pressure effects are quite crucial for simulating the spray combustion processes including vaporization, spray dynamics, combustion, and pollutant formation.

A 150 m$\^$3//hr, 30 kg/cm$\^$2/, air-cooled 3-stage reciprocating air compressor is designed to be used in starting large diesel engines of ships. A basic design procedure is presented to meet the targeted pressure and flow rate, and especially a volumetric efficiency of 80%. Temperature and stress analysis of the 1st stage cylinder are performed using axisymmetric FEM modelings. The dynamics of valve system is analyzed and stress at the 1st stage valve seat caused by valve impact is evaluated. To reduce friction loss and wear at the compressor engine system tribological design issues are reviewed and good design practices are suggested. Finally, forced-air pin-type interstage coolers are designed to dissipate generated compression heat at each stage.

In the present study, in order to understand the overall spray combustion characteristics of DME fuel as well as to identify the distinctive differences of DME combustion processes against the conventional hydrocarbon liquid fuels, the sequence of the comparative analysis have been systematically made for DME and n-heptane liquid fuels. To realistically represent the physical processes involved in the spray combustion, this studyemploys the hybrid breakup model, the stochastic droplet tracking model, collision model, high-pressure evaporation model, and transient flamelet model with detailed chemistry. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussions are made in terms of the autoignition, spray combustion processes, flame structure, and turbulence-chemistry interaction in the n-heptane and DME fueled spray combustion processes.

In recently designed diesel engines, the running conditions for piston pin bearings have become very severe due to combustion pressure and temperature increase. In this paper, it will be investigated the tendency of piston pin rotating motion by calculating the friction coefficient at piston pin bearings, the oil film thickness and the frictional torques induced by hydrodynamic shear stress. Finally, the pressure distributions on the oil film of piston pin bearings will be found by two-dimensional lubrication analysis in order to help the optimum design of the bearings of piston pin. Specially, it is investigated how the changes in combustion pressure at exhaust and intake stroke and the pressure-viscosity index effect on the film pressure distribution.

산업이 고도화되는 과정에서 에너지의 고효율화를 위하여 고온, 고압 등의 극한환경 하의 공정이 불가결하며, 이에 따라 초미세분진인 나노 입자가 증가되고 있다. 이에 따라 해당 나노의 입자 처리를 위하여 다양한 용도에서의 고온 필터가 산업적으로 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 디젤엔진 매연저감 후처리 장치, 소각로, 발전소 등의 미세 분진 포집 필터로서의 응용을 위해, 카본 파이버에 SiC 휘스커를 증착하는 실험을 진행하였다. 휘스커 증착 공정은 촉매없이 SiC 휘스커를 카본 파이버 위에 화학증착하였다. 휘스커 성장 시 증착 조건의 변화를 통하여 다양한 휘스커의 증착 형태 및 미세구조를 관찰하였다. 또한 높은 포집 효율 및 기체투과도를 갖추기 위해, 휘스커가 증착된 시편의 포집효율 및 기체투과도 향상을 위한 실험을 진행하였다. 해당 실험의 결과로, 증착된 필터는 70% 이상의 포집효율을 보이면서도 기체 투과도는 현재 상용화되어 있는 코디얼라이트보다 5배 이상 높았다. 또한 필터에 추가적인 SiC 침윤공정을 통하여 시편의 내산화성, 내마모성, 내열성 등의 특성이 향상됨을 확인하였다.
