Spray characteristics for the modulation with a pulsed spray in low-frequency region were investigted by performing with additional internal pulsed injection. The 1st perturbative flow was generated by rotating-type pulsed device and the 2nd pulse source generated by the magnetic valve was used to modulate the 1st flow. A pattern of the modulated spray was observed through FFT result and visualization. In case of modulated spray with the 2nd pulse control, the width of up and down motion of the modulated spray is smaller than that of the spray without the 2nd pulse. Also, the depth of penetration of the down stream is higher than that of spray without the 2nd pulse.

The method of test for observing the combustion instability and controling the instability actively by using secondary injection of fuel through flame stabilizer was studied by constructing model combustor of supersonic engine. The frequency of combustion instability was detected by measuring the pressure of combustor using pressure sensor and by optical sensing of flame intensity. Electro-magnetic valve was adopted as actuator for active control and the characteristics of modulated fuel was studied by measured pressure of valve outlet and scattering signal of spray at secondary fuel injection.

These experiments are close examination of spray characteristics that are continuous liquid jet and modulated liquid jet. The experiments were conducted using water, over a range of crossflow velocities from $42{\sim}l36\;m/s$, with modulation frequencies of $35.7{\sim}166.2\;Hz$. Between continuous crossflow jet and modulated cross-flow jet of penetration, breakup point, spray angle and macro spray shape are experimentally investigated with image analysis. In cross-flow field, main parameter of liquid jet for breakup was cross-flow stream rather than modulation effect. As oscillation of the periodic pressure that could make liquid jet moved up and down, the mixing efficiency was increased. Also, a bulk of liquid jet puff was detected at upper field of liquid surface. So, this phenomenon has a good advantage of mixing spray from concentration of center area to outer area. Because of modulation frequency, SMD inclination of the structured layer was evanescent. Cross-sectional characteristics of SMD at downstream area were non-structured distributions. Then cross-sectional characteristics of SMD size were about same tendency over a range that is effect of spray mixing. The tendency of volume flux value for various modulation frequency was same distribution. And volume flux was decreased when the modulation frequency increase.

For the air-fuel ratio control in a fuel injection SI engine, the Jump-Ramp control algorithm has been widely adopted by using the on/off type oxygen sensor. But the Jump-Ramp control method has limitation on treating the frequency and amplitude of the air-fuel ratio oscillation. This study suggests another feedback control logic named modulated fuel feedback control, which has a concept of pre-tuned air-fuel ratio oscillation. In the modulation method, the oxygen sensor output is not treated as on/off signal but as analog signal for feedback. By using the modulation method, the frequency and the amplitude of air-fuel ratio oscillation can be adjustable to some extent for improving the conversion efficiency of the Three-Way Catalyst. The result shows that the performance of the modulation method is better than that Jump-Ramp control method in reducing the amplitude of the air-fuel ratio oscillation as well as in increasing the frequency of the air-fuel ratio oscillation.

SMPS는 수위칭 소자를 이용하여 효과적으로 전력을 변환시킨다. 여기에서 가장 중요한 파라미터가 스위칭 주파수이다. 스위칭 주파수를 증가시킴에 따라 전원장치의 소형경량화가 가능하다. 그러나 기존 PWM 컨버터에서는 치명적인 단점으로 스위칭 주파수를 증가시킴에 따라 스위칭 손실 및 EMI 문제를 야기한다. 특히 SMPS의 동작은 상당히 큰 di/dt와 dv/dt에 기인한 EMI 전도성 잡음을 발생시킨다. EMI를 감소시키는 방법들로는 고전적이고 고가인 입력필터 혹은 주 전력단에 능동필터를 첨가하는 방법 등이 있어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 DC/DC 포워드 컨버터에 대해 EMI 잡음 발생원 및 잡음 경로를 분석하였다. SMPS에서 방출되는 전도성 잡음은 스위칭 주파수와 그 고주파 주파수에 집중되어 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 일정 출력전압에는 큰 영향 없이 스위칭 주파수를 약간씩 변조하게 되는 RPWM 제어를 통하여 전도성 잡음의 주파수 대역을 측면대역으로 분사시키어 전체 첨두치를 저감시키고, 고조파 스펙트럼을 개선할 수 있다.

Accident statistics shows that the portion of fatal occupant injuries due to side impacts is considerably high. The side impact usually leads to a severe intrusion of side structure into the passenger compartment. Furthermore, the safety zone for the side impact is relatively small compared to the front impact. Those kinds of physics for side impact frequently result in a fatal injury for the occupant. Therefore, NHTSA and EEVC are trying to intensify the regulation for the occupant protection against side impact. Both the regulation and recent market trends are asking for an installation of side airbag. There are several types of system configuration for side impact sensing. In this paper, we adopt the acceleration-based remote sensing method for the side airbag control system. We mainly focus on the development of hardware and crash discrimination algorithm of remote sensing unit. The crash discrimination algorithm needs fast decision of airbag firing especially for high-speed side impact such as FMVSS 214 and EEVC tests. It is also required to distinguish between low-speed fire and no-fire events. The algorithm should have a sufficient safety margin against any misuse situation such as hammer blow, door slam, etc. This paper introduces several firing criteria such as acceleration. velocity and energy criteria that use physical value proportional to crash severity. We have made a simulation program by using Matlab/Simulink to implement the proposed algorithm. We have conducted an algorithm calibration by using real crash data for 2,500cc vehicle. The crash performance obtained by the simulation was verified through a pulse injection method. It turned out that the results satisfied the system requirements well.
