As of December 2016, the number of registered automobiles in Korea exceeds 21million. As a result, greenhouse gas emission by transportation sector are increasing every year. It was concluded that the development of the driving strategy considering the driving behavior and the road conditions, which are known to affect the fuel efficiency and the greenhouse gas emissions, could be the most effective fuel economy improvement. Therefore, this study aims to develop a fuel efficient driving strategy in a complex linear section with uphill and curved sections. The road topography was designed according to 'Rules about the Road Structure & Facilities Standards'. Various scenarios were selected. After generating the speed profile, it was applied to the Comprehensive Modal Emission Model and fuel consumption was calculated. The scenarios with the lowest fuel consumption were selected. After that, the fuel consumption of the manual driver's driving record and the selected optimal driving strategy were compared and analyzed for verification. As a result of the analysis, the developed optimal driving strategy reduces fuel consumption by 21.2% on average compared to driving by manual drivers.

최근의 차량 연비는 고가의 연료 가격과 환경 규제 등으로 인하여 중요한 문제로 대두되었다. 전기, 전자, 반도체, 기계 등의 기술 발달은 연비 개선에 많은 공헌을 하였다. 그러나 연비 측정은 현재도 주어진 모드(LA-4, FTP-75 등)에서 컴퓨터 모의시험 및 다이나모에서 수행한다. 이렇게 측정한 연비는 실제 도로 주행 연비와 차이가 발생하는데, 그 주요 원인중의 하나는 도로의 경사를 고려하지 않았기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 경사가 심한 영동고속도로를 정속 주행하여 연료 소모량을 측정하고 연비를 계산한다. 또한 같은 도로를 경사가 없다고 가정하여 주행한 연비와 비교 분석한다. 이때 두 경우를 비교하여 경사에 의해 소모된 연료량 차이를 계산하고, 이 타이어 구동력과 엔진에서 소모된 연료량과의 관계를 검증한다.

Around a toll plaza, vehicles do such maneuvers as slow down, stop, and speed up to pay their tolls when they use ordinary toll gates. They can be expected more fuel consumptions compared to the vehicles which use the Hi-pass, a Korean type of Electronic Toll Collection System(ETCS). To measure the exact amount of difference between the two gas consumptions, we equipped a test vehicle with a measurement system and constructed a model toll gate on our test field. Through the field tests on fuel consumptions, we could confirm a 36.7 % of energy saving when the test car used the Hi-pass. Then we projected the result on the total traffic volumes which had used national expressway network for five months from January 2009. Projected to the whole traffic, potential cost savings reached 5.34 billion won. We expect this result be frequently mentioned of to prove the fuel efficiency of the Hi-pass system.

하이드라진 단기액체엔진을 장착하고 궤도에서 임무를 수행하고 있는 다목적실용 위성 추진시스템 궤도비행 초기운용 자료에 근거하여 추진제 소모율을 산정 한다. 추진시스템은 위성의 궤도각과 비행고도 조정을 위한 속도증분($\Delta$V) 및 자세제어를 위한 추력을 발생시킨다. 단기액체 추진시스템에서 추진제 소모량은 추력기 밸브의 개폐시간에 비례하고 추력 생성 효율은 추진제의 연소기 유입압력에 종속한다. 일정질량의 가압 기체 압력에 의해 연료를 공급하는 추진시스템에서 잔류 추진제 량의 감소는 연소기 유입압력의 감소를 유발하고 추진기관의 효율을 저하시키는 요인으로 작용하여 임무말기로 진행함에 따라 동일한 운동량 생성에 보다 많은 연료소모가 이루어진다.(중략)

최근 국제 유가의 상승에 따라 선박 운항 시 연료비를 최소화하고자 하는 연구의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 해상 상태를 고려하여 선박의 연료비를 최소화하는 운항 경로, 즉 최적 운항 경로를 결정하는 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 해상 상태에 따라 선박에 추가적으로 가해지는 부가 저항을 추정하였고, 이를 기반으로 선속 저하량과 이의 보상을 위해 요구되는 마력 증가량을 추정하였으며, 마지막으로 연료 소모량과 운항 시간을 추정하였다. 또한 해상 상태의 취득 방법에 대해서도 연구하였다. 본 방법의 효용성을 검증하기 위해 이를 간단한 예제에 적용하였으며, 그 결과 연료 소모량을 최소화하는 선박경제 항로 결정 과정에 활용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In 2012, total GHG emissions in transport sector reached 88 Million ton CO2eq. The emissions generated in the road accounted for 94% of the transport sector. Currently, there are many efforts to operate an education and campaign for eco-driving. However study for eco-friendly vehicle control considering road alignment is limited. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to address fuel-efficient driving strategy in horizontal curve section. To fulfill the goal, designed ideal freeway horizontal curve road follows regulations about road structure. And safety speed is calculated for considering vehicle's safety on horizontal curve road. Authors composed the acceleration and deceleration scenario for each horizontal curve section and generated the speed profiles that are limited by the safety speed. Speed profiles are converted into force that horizontal curve affect to fuel consumption. Then, we calculated fuel consumption using Comprehensive Modal Emission Model. Then, we developed eco-driving strategy by selecting most fuel-efficient scenario. To validate this strategy, we selected study site and compared fuel consumption for eco and manual driving. As the result, fuel consumption when driver used eco-driving was lessened by 20.73% than that of manual driving.

As the necessity of the evaluation of environmentally-friendly traffic operations strategies becomes obvious, the characteristics of fuel consumption models should be comprehended in advance. This study selected three fuel consumption models developed in Korea and another three models widely used in North America, and compared their applicabilities. Specifically, the national institute of environmental research (NIER) drive modes and the VISSIM software were utilized to model various driving patterns, and their fuel consumptions were estimated using the fuel consumption models. Based on the results, all the models showed the similar results in the analysis of the most fuel efficient cruising speed. On the other hand, caution should be taken when using the KR-1 and KR-2 models in microscopic analyses because they are not sensitive to instantaneous power requirements of vehicles.

As the seriousness of the global environment pollution is gaining our attention recently, researches on application of greenhouse gas emission of ship are being carried globally. However domestic study on greenhouse gas emission from ship was not carried out in various fields. In this study, quantitative data which was presented by greenhouse gas emission of training ship HANBADA and greenhouse gas emission was calculated by Tier 1 method based on total fuel consumption and amount of shore power. Actual voyage data for 1year in 2012 was used to analysis the greenhouse gas emission. This study showed how many weight of gases were exhausted per 1 gross tonnage and per 1trainee in the training ship. There is a need of further research to reduce pollutant and to respond to international environment regulation consistently.

In this paper, we established a prediction model of fuel consumption at the aircraft's taxi operation. To look for countermeasures to reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions, Airbus A380's actual ground taxi data was used. As a result, the number of stops or turnings during the taxi operation was not related to fuel consumption. It was confirmed that the amount of fuel consumption in the taxi operation was the taxi time and the thrust change. It can be confirmed that ground control optimization, which is the result of close cooperation between the control organization and the airline, is absolutely necessary to reduce taxi time and minimize the occurrence of thrust change events.
