For fuel economy and pollutant reduction, the interests in lean burn has increased recently. The purpose of this research is to develop a High Frequency Ignition System (HIS) that can make powerful ignition. We studied relations between performance of HIS and probability of inflammation under various ignition conditions. It is concluded that the portion of capacitance energy to the total energy is comparatively larger and that the optimum spark interval and spark duration are dependent upon conditions of Constant Volume Combustion Chamber.

본 논문에서는 원격 플라즈마 발생장치 (Remote Plasma Generator, RPG)에 적용하기 위한 공진형 토폴로지에 대해 비교한다. 원격 플라즈마 발생장치는 AC-DC 정류기, DC-AC 인버터, 공진탱크, 플라즈마 발생용 리액터, 점화장치로 구성되며, 이는 기존의 SMPS와 유사한 구성이다. 하지만 플라즈마 부하는 기존의 전력전자 어플리케이션들과는 달리 점화조건과 플라즈마 유지 조건을 충족시켜야 한다는 특징이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 각 공진형 토폴로지들의 특성 비교 분석을 통해 원격 플라즈마 발생장치에 대한 적용 가능성에 대한 분석을 수행하였으며, 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증하였다.

본 논문은 고주파 발생장치와 IEC형 불꽃점화 시험장치를 이용하여 라디오 주파수 범위내에서 발생하는 개폐불꽃에 의한 LPG-Air 5.25[Vol$\%$]의 혼합가스에 대한 최소점화한계전압을 구하였다. 그 결과 LPG-Air 혼합가스는 주파수가 높을수록 최소점화한계전압도 높아졌으며, 특히 3[KHz]에서 10[KHz]사이에서 현저히 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 3[KHz]까지는 1회의 방전에너지에 의해 점화가 발생되지만 3[KHz]이상에서는 2회 이상의 방전에너지가 누적되어 점화가 일어남을 알 수 있었고 그 이유는 방전과 방전간의 휴지기간이 존재하므로써 생기는 에너지의 손실이 그 원인으로 생각된다. 본 연구결과는 가스가 존재하는 위험장소에서도 안전하게 사용될 수 있는 통신장비나 각종탐지기 등에 응용될 수 있는 본질안전 방폭형 고주파 전기기기의 연구개발을 위한 기본자료로서 뿐만 아니라 이들 장비의 방폭성능에 대한 시험자료로도 활용가능할 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, we find a method to improve ignitability using methanol which is prospective as an alternative fuel. The constant volume combuster is divided into main chamber and sub-cham¬ber. These two chambers are linked by an adapter which is shaped like a cup. We also compare CDI to HIS that is revised in our laboratory for making a scrutiny into the effects of ignition char¬acteristics. Besides, we analyze a flame propagation process in the main and sub-chamber through taking pictures 10, 000 frames per second by high speed camera at the state being fabricated quartz glass aside main and sub-chamber.

A new ignition system concept was developed to improve ignition performance, accuracy of control and the reliability of the ignition system. The new ignition system has ho호 frequency discharge characteristics with 1.5-2.0 ms discharge duration, in place of the usual solitary longer duration event. We applied the system to a commercial engine to study its influence on the maximum combustion pressure attained during the cycle, when this peak pressure occurred, imep, variation rate of the engine speed and the flammability limit of a lean mixture. In this study, we clarified that the new ignition system had a beneficial effect of the lean mixture flammability limit. Also for a given mixture strength we found that the mew ignition system gave a higher peak cylinder pressure than in the case of the conventional ignition system.

Lean burn combustion is an important concept for improving the fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. However, the lean burning is associated with increased cycle-to-cycle combustion variations due to the ignition instabilities and redu- ced flame propagation rates. Engine stability under lean mixture conditions could be improved by increasing flame speed through enhanced flow characteristics and by securing ignitability with improvement of ignition systems. The effects of flow motion and ignition characteristics on the combustion performances were investigated in a 4-valve SI engine. Flow motions of tumble-swirl were varied with a swirl control valve attached at the inlet ports, while ignition energy and its distribution were controlled in a high -frequency ignition system by changing spark duration and spark frequency. The improvement of lean burn performance by the optimum flow motion and ignition characteristics is discussed.
