As the environmental pollution becomes serious global problem, the regulation of emission exhausted from automobiles is strengthened. Therefore, it is very important to know how to reduce the NOx and PM simultaneously in diesel engines, which has lot of merits such as high thermal efficiency, low fuel consumption and durability. By this reason, the new concept called as Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition(HCCI) engines are spotlighted because this concept reduced NOx and P.M. simultaneously. However, there is trade off between output and NOx in a HCCI engine. In this study, output and emission characteristics for a gasoline direct injection type HCCI engine were investigated to clarify the effects of intake air temperature, injection time and mixture formation. From these experiments, we found that the smoke was not produced when the fuel was injected earlier than BTDC 90$^{\circ}$. In addition, the output was increased because of delay of ignition time and NOx emission was decreased because of homogeneous charge of first injection in case of split injection.

본 연구는 도로 터널 화재 발생 시 연소가스의 backlayer현상을 수치실험하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. 상업용 열 유체해석코드인 PHOENICS를 사용하여 정상상태의 열 유동현상을 수치해석하였으며 환기용 공기속도를 독립변수로 하고 종속변수는 backlayer의 길이로 하였다. 수치해석에 사용한 난류모델은 $textsc{k}-\varepsilon$ 모델을 사용하였고 Hybrid 차분법을 사용하고 질량 잔류값을 수렴조건으로 사용하였다. 수치실험 결과 backlayer의 길이가 환기 속도에 반비례하여 감소하고 backlayer가 발생하지 않는 임계 환기속도가 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 연소가스의 수직방향 성층화로 터널하부에 승객이 대피할 수 있는 공간이 존재함을 확인 할 수 있었다.

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.

Controlled Auto Ignition(CAI) combustion has great potential in achieving significant increase in engine efficiency, while simultaneously reducing exhaust emissions. The process itself involves the auto ignition and subsequent simultaneous combustion of a premixed charge. In this study, NVO(Negative Valve Overlap) system was applied to a CAI engine in order to use residual gas. The fuel was injected directly to the cylinder under the high temperature condition resulting from heating the intake port to initiate CAI combustion. This paper introduced the valve timing strategy and experimental set-up. From this study, the effect of engine speed and valve timing on CAI combustion and exhaust emissions was clarified. In addition, stratified charge method was used to extend CAI operating region.

자동차배출가스는 이산화탄소($CO_2$)에 의한 지구온난화 및 탄화수소(HC)와 질소산화물($NO_x$)에 의한 오존 생성을 야기하는 등, 인체와 환경에 나쁜 영향을 미치기 때문에 이에 대한 관심이 증폭되고 있다. 가솔린 직접분사 (Gasoline Direct Injection; GDI)엔진은 디젤엔진과 같이 연소실내에 연료를 직접 공급하는 방식으로서 가솔린엔진의 취약점으로 지적되어 오던 높은 연료소비율 문제를 획기적으로 개선할 수 있는 기술로 평가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분무유도방식(Spray-guided type)의 GDI엔진을 이용하여 공기과잉률 2.0 이상의 초희박 연소를 통해 연료소비율을 개선하였다. 추가적인 연료소비율 개선 및 배출가스 저감을 위해 희박연소시 다단 분사전략과 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)을 적용하였다. 배출가스 수준과 운전성능을 평가하고 이를 배출가스 규제와 비교 검토함으로써 국내 관련기술 개발 방향 및 상용화 가능성에 대해 검토하고자 하였다.

액화석유가스는 환경 친화적이며 에너지 효율성과 출력성능이 뛰어나 실용성이 높고, 경쟁연료에 비해 가격 경쟁력이 우수하기 때문에 촉망받는 대체연료 중 하나로 간주된다. 스파크점화 엔진에서 직분식 기술은 엔진 체적효율을 눈에 띄게 증가시키며, 상대적으로 더 높은 연소효율이 가능한 성층급기를 이용해 엔진을 작동시킨다. 본 연구에서는 가솔린직접분사 엔진의 원리를 적용하여 가시화 시스템을 장착한 연소실을 설계하였다. 이를 통해 스파크점화직분식 LPG의 점화성과 화염전파 과정을 디지털 방식으로 기록하고 분석하였다. 이러한 연구의 결과는 스파크점화직분식 LPG 엔진의 설계 및 최적화를 위한 광범위한 기초 자료로서 기여하고자 한다.

This paper is the second of companion papers, which investigate port-masking effects on emission and fuel economy. Port-masking was applied to commercial SOHC 3-valve engine by inserting masking plates between manifold and port. To induce various conditions of stratification, six types of masking plates were applied. In this paper, main interest is focused on the influence of injection timing on emission and fuel economy. Various injection timing was applied to the six cases, under the stoichiometric and lean-limit air-fuel ratio. Under the stoichiometric condition, an explanation about the reason of the change in emission level due to injection timing change is given. It is observed that NOx emission under the LML condition varies significantly when the injection timing changes.

Initial flame development and propagation were visualized under different fuel injection timings to relate the initial flame development to the engine stability in a port injection SI engine. Experiments were performed in an optical single cylinder engine modified from a production engine and images were captured through the quartz window mounted in the piston by an intensified CCD camera. Stratification state was controlled by varying injection timing. Under each injection condition, the flame images were captured at the pre-set crank angles. These were averaged and processed to characterize the flame. The flame stability was estimated by the weighted average of flame area, luminosity, and standard deviation of flame area. Results show that stratification state according to injection timing did not affect on the direction of flame propagation. The flame development and the initial flame stability are strongly dependent on the stratified conditions and the initial flame stability governs the engine stability and lean misfire limit.

An LPG engine (KL6i) for heavy duty vehicle has been developed using liquid phase LPG injection (LPLi) system, which has regarded as one of next generation LPG fuel supply systems. For the KL6i engine, lean burn technology was introduced to minimize the thermal loading and NOx emissions due to an increase of the engine power. In this work, injection timing and piston bowl shape were investigated for the stabilization of lean burn characteristics. Experimental results reveals that fuel stratification induced by these parameters is most effective strategy to extend lean combustion limit in the LPLi system.

In general, the stratified charge for direct injection gasoline engine should be introduced to achieve ultra-lean combustion scheme. In order to apply the concept of stratified charge into direct injection gasoline engine, a reflector was adapted on cylinder head. An installation of the reflector in front of the injector nozzle leads the mixture to be rich near spark plug. Therefore, the mixture near the spark plug is locally ich to ignite while the lean mixture is wholly introduced into the combustion chamber. In this paper, the characteristics of combustion is analyzed with the variations of injection pressure and load in a stratified-charge direct injection single cylinder gasoline engine.
