본 연구는 라디칼 착화(Radical Ignition이하 RI) 기술을 적용한 부실직분식 CNG(Compressed Natural Gas) 엔진의 구동특성에 관한 것이다. 실험엔진은 단기통 디젤엔진을 개조하여 사용하였으며, 이는 부실식 디젤엔진처럼 연소실이 주실과 부실로 나누어져 있다. 부실에 분사된 CNG는 스파크플러그로 점화하며, 부실로 부터의 연소가스가 주실 희박 혼합기를 시켜 구동하는 엔진이다. RI 기술은 연소속도를 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 연구는 주로 저부하 RI-CNG 엔진의 성능을 연구하였다. 연료분사기간은 9 ms, 공기과잉률은 1.0, 1.2, 1.4로 하였다. 연료분사시기는 엔진의 배가밸브가 닫히는 ATDC $20^{\circ}CA$ 부터 $120^{\circ}CA$ 사이로, $20^{\circ}CA$ 간격으로 지각시켜 가며 실험하였다. 본 연구는 연료분사시기 및 공기과잉률이 연소최고압력 ($P_{max}$), 연소최고압력시기(${\Theta}_{pmax}$), 도시평균유효압력(IMEP), 사이클 변동계수($COV_{imep}$), 연소속도에 미치는 양향 등을 구하고 분석하였다.

An experimental study presents characteristics of combustion in a combustion chamber by port deactivation valve for economy and emissions standards. In order to use combustion properties data it is necessary to build some data base, which use cylinder pressure sensor, etc. Port deactivation valve has been developed to satisfy requirement of achieving sufficient swirl generation to improve the combustion. A feasibility and necessity of combustion pressure based cylinder spark timing control has been examined. So, this was obtained the Coefficient of Variation(COV) and the mass-burned(MFB). The characteristics of pressure ratio fraction is similar to that of mass-burned fraction. Using the results of the test, the effects of the combustion chamber can be improved combustion stability by port deactivation.

This paper presents characteristics of combustion and exhaust gas properties according to variation of the combustion chamber for economy and emissions standards. In order to use combustion and exhaust gas properties data, it is necessary to build some data base, which use cylinder pressure sensor and emission tester. A feasibility and necessity of combustion pressure based cylinder spark timing control has been examined. So, this was obtained the coefficient of variation(COV) and the specific fuel consumption(sfc). Using the results of the test, the effects of the variable combustion chamber can be improved combustion stability and be reduced exhaust emission.

The variation of spark plug location have one of the effects on combustion characteristics. Several parameters of the effect on combustion characteristics are shape of combustion chamber, the spark plug position, turbulence flow and so on. This paper presents an experimental study according to variation of spark plug protrusion and PDA valve which have effects on characteristics of combustion and emission in single cylinder gasoline engine. Also, this paper emphasized that combustion stabilization was making by way of the reinforcement of the turbulent flow with the PDA valve. A feasibility and necessity of combustion pressure based cylinder spark timing control according to spark plug protrusion has been examined. So, this was obtained COV$\_$imep/ and the mass fraction burned(MFB) and the specific fuel consumption(sfc). Using the results of the test, the effects of the variable spark plug location and PDA valve can be improved fuel consumption and be available for the combustion stability.

Lean burn engine, classified into port injection and direct injection, is recognized as a promising way to meet better fuel economy. Especially, LPG direct injection engine is becoming increasingly popular due to their potential for improved fuel economy and emissions. Also, LPDi engine has the advantages of higher power output, higher thermal efficiency, higher EGR tolerance due to the operation characteristics of increased volumetric efficiency, compression ratio and ultra-lean combustion scheme. However, LPDi engine has many difficulties to be solved, such as complexity of injection control mode (fuel injection timing, injection rate), fuel injection pressure, spark timing, unburned hydrocarbon and restricted power. This study is investigated to the influence of spark timing, fuel injection position and fuel injection rate on the combustion stability of LPDi engine. Piston shape is constituted the bowl type piston. The characteristics of combustion is analyzed with the variations of spark timing, fuel injection position and fuel injection rate (early injection, late injection) in a LPDi engine.

In general, DI gasoline engine has the advantages of higher power output, higher thermal efficiency, higher EGR tolerance and lower emissions due to the operation characteristics of increased volumetric efficiency, compression ratio and ultra-lean combustion scheme. In order to apply the concept of stratified charge into direct injection gasoline engine, some kinds of methodologies have been adapted in various papers. In this study, a reflector was adapted around the injector nozzle to apply the concept of stratified charge combustion which leads the air-fuel mixture to be rich near spark plug. Therefore, the mixture near the spark plug is locally rich to ignite while the lean mixture is wholly introduced into the combustion chamber. The characteristics of combustion is analyzed with the variations of fuel injection pressure and load in a stratified -charge direct injection single cylinder gasoline engine. The obtained results are summarized as follows ; 1. The MBT spark timing approached to TDC with the increase of load on account of the increase of evaporation energy, but has little relation with fuel injection pressure. 2. The stratification effects are apparent with the increase of injection pressure. It is considered by the development of secondary diffusive combustion and the increase of heat release of same region, but proceed rapidly than diesel engine. Especially, in the case of high pressure injection (l70bar) and high load (3.0kgf m), the diffusive combustion parts are developed excessively and results in the decrease of peak pressure than in the case of middle load. 3. The index of engine stability, COVimep value, is drastically decreased with the increase of load. 4. To get better performance of DI gasoline engine development, staged optimizaion must be needed such as injection pressure, reflector, intake swirl, injection timing, chamber shape, ignition system and so on. In this study, the I50bar injection pressure is appeared as the optimum.

전 세계적으로 천연가스 시장에서는 천연가스의 저열량화 추세로 뚜렷하게 변화되고 있다. 이러한 추세는 국내의 천연가스 열량기준에 변화를 가져왔으며, 낮은 열량의 천연가스 도입으로 인해 현재 사용되고 있는 가스기기의 성능에도 변화가 있을 것으로 예측된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 혼소엔진의 연소특성을 파악하기 위해 CNG 혼소율 변화를 이용하여 열효율, 도시평균유효압력 변동계수 및 열방출 특성을 고찰하였다. CNG 혼소율은 투입되는 연료의 총합 대비 공급되는 천연가스연료의 에너지로 계산하여 천연가스연료가 디젤연료를 대체하는 비율로 정의하였다. 엔진 실험조건으로는 공급되는 천연가스의 발열량은 $10,400kcal/Nm^3$이며, $1800rpm/500N{\cdot}m$의 엔진 운전조건에서 디젤연료의 분사시기는 BTDC $16^{\circ}CA$, 분사압력은 85 MPa로 설정하여 엔진의 성능 및 연소 실험을 진행하였다. 엔진 실험결과로 CNG 혼소율이 변화함에 따라 공급되는 디젤 연료량 역시 변화하고, CNG 혼소율이 증가할수록 디젤 연료량이 감소함으로써 점화에너지가 줄어들어 점화지연기간이 길어지는 연소특성을 나타내며, 이로 인해 엔진의 열효율과 출력도 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 연소안정성은 5% 미만으로 안정적인 엔진의 연소상태를 보여 실험의 신뢰성을 확보할 수 있었다.
