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 use of emulsified fuel and EGR (Exhaust gas recirculation) system are effective methods to reduce NOx emission from diesel engines. In general, it is considered that EGR method influences diesel engine combustion in three different ways: thermal, chemical and dilution effect. Among others, the thermal effect is related to the increase of specific heat capacity due to the presence of $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ in inlet air. Meanwhile, emulsified fuel method of utilizing latent heat of vaporization and miro-explosion has been recognized as an effective technique for reducing diesel engine emissions. In this paper, an author studied on combustion and emission characteristics by using emulsified fuel (EF, Light oil : 80% + Water : 20%) and EGR (30% EGR ratio) system. And the effect of fuel injection pattern control was investigated.

Oscillating heat release associated with periodic vortex-flame interaction was investigated experimentally. Turbulent jet flames were stabilized with recirculating hot products in a dump combustor, and large-scale periodic vortices were imposed into the jet flame by acoustic forcing. Forcing frequencies and operating parameters were adjusted to simulate unstable combustor operation in practical combustors. The objectives were to characterize vortex-heat release interaction that leads to unwanted heat release fluctuations and to identify the proper fuel injection pattern that could be used for actively suppressing such fluctuations. Phase-resolved CH* chemiluminescence and schlieren images were used as diagnostic tools. The results were compared at corresponding phases of vortex shedding cycle.

SI 엔진의 연소특징은 비정상 난류 예혼합 화염이며 여기서 내부 유동은 직접 화염 전파에 영향을 미치며 난류와 거시적 유동의 패턴 모두 중요한 역할을 한다. 내연기관 연소에서 난류는 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 통상 엔진 속도($\approx$흡입유동 속도)에 비례하며 그 주요 역할은 고속 운전 시 해당 사이클 내에 연소가 완료되는 데 기여하지만 출력저하, 제어 및 측정 그리고 사이클 변동과 관련하여 실질적으로 난류 제어를 통한 엔진 성능 개선은 사실상 불가능하다. 실물 엔진의 성능 파라미터로 주로 유동의 거시적 거동이 사용되며 이 유동과 연료 분사계가 혼합기 분포 상태와 화염 전파 방향을 결정하여 최종적으로 엔진의 성능을 지배한다. 따라서 가시화를 통한 연소 진단도 이 현상에 주목할 필요가 있으며 거시적 파라미터를 성능에 연관하는 다양한 기법이 존재하고 이들은 매우 풍부한 데이터베이스를 통해 비교적 정확한 성능의 예측을 가능하게 하고 이 점에 주목한 엔진만 성공을 거두었다. 이 거시적 현상에 주목하여 가시화를 통해 성층화 현상을 실험적으로 해석한 예를 제시하였다. SI 엔진 가시화에서 기법보다 중요한 것은 현상의 이해이다. 이를 위해 성공적 가시화 진단을 위해서는 우선 현상에 대한 모델링이 필요하고 이 모델에서 가시화를 통해 규명 가능한 현상을 추출해 내는 것이다.

Air wiping technique is widely used because of easy and efficient coating control in present CGL The coating weight is controlled by nozzle header pressure. strip line speed, and the distance between strip and nozzle. Coating defects are resulted from the unbalance of these control factors and the inaccuracy of coating equipments. We investigates the main cause of coating defects, such as edge overcoating and coating deviation through various experiments. It is found that the edge overcoating is mainly come from nozzle lip type, and the coating deviation is caused by the unbalance of dynamic pressure.

In order to improve the emission of diesel engines, natural gas-diesel dual fuel combustion compression ignition engines are in the spotlight. In particular, a reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) combustion strategy is investigated comprehensively due to its possibility to improve both efficiency and emissions. With advanced diesel direct injection timing earlier than TDC, it achieves spontaneous reaction with overall lean mixture from a homogeneous mixture in the entire cylinder area, reducing nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) and improving braking heat efficiency at the same time. However, there is a disadvantage in that the amount of incomplete combustion increases in a low load region with a relatively small amount of fuel-air. To solve this, sensitive control according to the diesel injection timing and fuel ratio is required. In this study, experiments were conducted to improve efficiency and exhaust emissions of the natural gas-diesel dual fuel engine at low load, and evaluate combustion stability according to the diesel injection timing at the operation point for power generation. A 6 L-class commercial diesel engine was used for the experiment which was conducted under a 50% load range (~50 kW) at 1,800 rpm. Two injectors with different spray patterns were applied to the experiment, and the fraction of natural gas and diesel injection timing were selected as main parameters. Based on the experimental results, it was confirmed that the brake thermal efficiency increased by up to 1.3%p in the modified injector with the narrow-angle injection added. In addition, the spray pattern of the modified injector was suitable for premixed combustion, increasing operable range in consideration of combustion instability, torque reduction, and emissions level under Tier-V level (0.4 g/kWh for NOx).
