Recently, the world is faced with very serious problems related to the air pollution due to the exhaust emissions of the diesel engine. So, many of researchers have studied to reduce the exhaust emissions of diesel engine. This study was investigated for various exhaust emissions according to operating conditions in a turbocharged D.I. diesel engine. As a result of experiments in a test engine, the $CO_2\;and\;NO_x$ increased with increasing load, the $CO_2$ and CO decreased with increasing charge air pressure in manifold, the CO decreased with increasing cooling fresh water temperature, and the $NO_x$ decreased with worming cooling fresh water before engine start.

Great attentions are paid to HSDI diesel engine for passenger cars because of its high thermal efficiency. The most interesting research in HSDI diesel engine developments is focused on applying common rail system as a fuel injection equipment. In this study, a series of tests are carried out to investigate the effect of injection pressure variation on the smoke and fuel concluded in a small HSDI diesel engine with common rail system. As a result of this study it is concluded that there is an optimum rail pressure dependent on combustion system such as nozzle type, combustion chamber geometry.

An experimental feasibility study of the E3.9 engine with CP3.3 and EDC7C was conducted to understand the initial performance and the possibility for EURO-III regulation. ID cycle simulation for concept study was conducted using the BOOST. Also, some basic investigations through such various parameters as injection timing and rail pressure have been carried out to find the feasibility on EURO-III ESC mode. Based on the results, the feasibility of the E3.9 engine for EURO-III characteristics such as performance, emissions, and fuel economy was demonstrated.

This study aims to investigate injection rate and microscopic spray characteristics of diesel fuel containing fine air bubble (FBD). fine bubble was generated by cavitation theory using bubble generator. Fuel spray was injected into constant volume chamber and visualized by high speed camera. The injection rate data was acquired with bosch tube method. Injection rate of finebubble diesel was very similar with that of diesel. It showed slightly faster injection start by 5 ㎲ attributed to the low viscosity characteristics. In microscopic spray visualization, fine bubble diesel spray showed unsymmetric spray shape compared with diesel spray. It also showed very vigorous spray atomization performance during initial spray development. Improved atomization was also attributed to the low viscosity and surface tension of finebubble diesel fuel.

The characteristics of combustion and emissions were investigated in a single cylinder DI diesel engine equipped with a common rail injection system. This study presents an experimental study of the effect of engine speed, injection timing, injection pressure and pilot injection timing on the combustion and exhaust emissions. The engine speeds were 1000 and 2000rpm and the corresponding injection pressures were 50 and 100MPa. Experimental results show that NOx emissions decrease with retarded injection timing, while HC and CO emissions increases. Higher injection pressure increases NOx with lower soot emissions. For the case with the pilot injection prior to main injection, the ignition delay is shortened and the premixed combustion ratio decreases. Also NOx and soot emissions are decreased with increase of pilot injection advance.

Recently, the tightening of available crude oil supplies has resulted in the development of intense consciousness for saving fuels. At the same time, some research programs have been launched to secure substitute energy sources for petroleum-derived fuels, and to reduce unhealthy products, such as CO, HC, NOx and smoke. To keep up with these trends in society, the regulation affecting diesel smoke may be greatly strengthened in a short time. In not too distant future, LPG and LNG are the most hopeful substitute fuels for automobile and truck uses. This paper discusses how to use such gaseous fuels in a diesel engine, and how to find out introducing these fuels affect the engine performance.

In order to reduce NOx and Soot emissions simultaneously, characteristics of diesel spray and combustion were investigated by numerical simulation with StarCD in this paper. This work focuses on effect of Spin Injection. A simulation model of combustion, spray and emissions is developed for heavy duty marine diesel engine application. Simulation is performed with change of spray angle between first and second directions at fixed engine speed, injection timing, injection duration and etc. The results show that Spin Spray Injection method can reduce NOx emission. And the results show that the 1st injection considerably interfere with 2nd injection characteristics.

The objective of this study was to investigate the spray characteristics of commercial biodiesel fuel at various fuel injection conditions. To examine the effect of various factors on the development of a biodiesel sprays, experiments were conducted at the various injection pressures, ambient pressures and blending ratio of bio-diesel fuels. As a result of experimental study, it was shown that the increase of blending ratio of biodiesel had little influence on spray behaviors under applied fuel injection condition in this study. Because macroscopic characteristics of biodiesel-blended diesel fuel were almost same as that of petrodiesel fuels, it was found that the commercial biodisel is applicable to conventional diesel engine.

In order to investigate the droplet size distribution and Sauter Mean Diameter in a ultra high pressure diesel spray, fuel was injected with ultra high pressure into the environments of high pressure and room temperature by an Electronic Hydraulic Fuel Injection System. Droplet size was measured with the immersion liquid sampling technique. The immersion liquid was used a mixture of water-methycellulose solution and ethanol. The Sauter Mean Diameter decreased with increasing injection pressure, with a decrease environmental pressure (back pressure) and nozzle diameter. Increasing the injection pressure makes the fuel density distribution of the spray more homogeneous. An empirical correlation was developed among injection pressure, air density, nozzle diameter and the Sauter Mean Diameter of spray droplets.

Performance and emissions with different diesel injection methods were analyzed in a natural gas-diesel, dual-fuel engine under low-load conditions. Natural gas was supplied to intake port during the intake stoke to form a natural gas-air premixed mixture for all methods. Diesel was injected directly into the cylinder during the compression stroke in three ways: early injections, late injections, and a combination of early and late injections. The early injections had the highest thermal efficiency among the three methods owing to its highest combustion efficiency. The wide dispersion of diesel before the combustion initiation also allowed superior emissions characteristics.
