The Dual-type Solenoid Valve was developed for a domestic production of a fuel-supply valve on the satellite attitude control thruster system. The satellite valve using a hydrazine as a fuel must fulfill the cycle life, shock, vibration and the environment of an extremely low temperature In addition to the basic performance of the response time, mass flow and leakage etc.. in this paper, the design, production and performance experiment using the nitrogen pneumatic equipment were conducted.

Water soluble oil was obtained by pyrolysis of biomass. The characteristics of emulsified fuel by mixing water soluble oil and MDO(marine diesel oil) and engine emissions were studied with engine dynamometer. Saw dust was used as biomass. Water soluble oil was obtained by condensing of water and carbon content with pyrolysis of saw dust at $500^{\circ}C$. Emulsion fuel was obtained by emulsifying MDO and water soluble oil by the water soluble oil mixing ratio of 10 to 20% of MDO. Exhaust gas detection was performed with engine dynamometer. While combustion, micro-explosion took place in the combustion chamber by water in the emulsion fuel, emulsion fuel scattered to micro particles and it caused to smoke reduction. The heat produced from water vapour reduce the temperature of internal combustion chamber and it caused to inhibition of NOx production. It can be verified by the lower exhaust temperature of each ND-13 mode using emulsion fuel than that of MDO fuel. The NOx and smoke concentration were reduced by increasing water soluble oil content in the emulsion fuel. The power also decreased according to the increment of water soluble oil content of emulsion fuel because emulsion fuel has low calorific value due to high water content than MDO. As a result of ND-13 mode test with 20% bio oil content, it was achieved 25% reduction in NOx production, 60% reduction in smoke density, and 15% reduction in power loss.

Water soluble oil was obtained from the pyrolysis of coconut waste as a biomass at $600^{\circ}C$. It was studied that the combustion characteristics of bio-emulsion fuel by mixing and emulsifying 15~20% of water soluble oil which obtained from pyrolysis of coconut waste as a biomass and MDO(marine diesel oil) as a marine fuel. Engine dynamometer was used for detecting emissions, temperature, and power. The temperature of combustion chamber was decreased because the moisture in bio-emulsion fuel deprived of heat of evaporation in combustion chamber. While combustion, micro-explosion took place in the combustion chamber by water in the bio-emulsion fuel, MDO fuel scattered to micro particles and it caused to smoke reduction. The temperature reduction of combustion chamber by using bio-emulsion fuel reduced the NOx emission. The increasing of bio-oil content caused increasing water content in bio-emulsion fuel so total calorific value was reduced. So the characteristics of power was decreased in proportion to using the increasing amount of bio-emulsion fuel. Heavy oil as a marine fuel exhausts a lot of smoke and NOx. We expect that we can reduce the exhaust gas of marine engine such as smoke and NOx by using of bio-emulsion fuel as a marine fuel.

We measured flame extinguishing concentration and flue gas composition in the n-heptane fuel cup-burner system using inert gas agents such as nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide and their mixtures. The flame extinguishing concentration of binary gaseous mixture was well predicted by model which contains the flame extinguishing concentration and composition of pure components. The higher average specific gravity of the mixed inert gas agents, the more excellent flame extinguishing performance. And the structure of enclosed space also affects the fire extinguishing. The composition of carbon dioxide in the flue gas was decreased with increasing extinguishing agent used. Nitrogen monoxide production is not related with increasing nitrogen, but increased at rapid mass flow rate of air in the cup-burner.

한국항공우주연구원은 액체추진기관 시스템을 이용한 3단형과학로켓(이하 KSR-III)을 국내 최초로 개발하여 비행시험을 수행하였다. 액체추진기관 로켓의 비행시험을 위해서는 이전의 고체 추진기관을 이용한 과학로켓 1, 2와는 달리 비행시험 조건에 부합하게 액체추진제 및 가압제 등을 공급하는 지상설비가 필요하다. 이에 한국항공우주연구원은 독자적으로 비행시험에 필요한 제반 설비를 갖춘 발사장을 구축하였다. KSR-III는 압축 헬륨가스(GHe)를 이용하여 연료(Jet A-1)와 산화제(LOx)를 가압하여 추력을 얻는 액체추진기관 시스템이다. 따라서 발사장에서의 지상공급설비는 유공압 설비와 발사시나리오에 따라 해당 부품을 제어하고 자료를 저장하는 제어/계측 설비 및 기타설비들로 구성되어 있다. 지상공급설비 중 유공압 설비는 LOx의 저장 및 기체 내 산화제 탱크의 충전을 위한 산화제 공급설비, Jet A-1의 저장 및 기체 내 연료 탱크의 충전을 위한 연료 공급 설비, 지상설비용 밸브구동 및 기체 내부 퍼지 등에 필요한 질소($N_2$)를 저장/공급하는 설비, 기체내부 밸브 구동 및 가압제로 사용되는 기체헬륨(He)을 저장/공급하는 설비들로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 구축된 공급설비는 기능시험, 연계시험 등의 각종 입증시험을 통해 그 성능을 검증한 후 단인증모델(SQTM)을 이용하여 발사 시나리오에 따른 추진제 공급능력을 입증한 후 KSR-III의 비행시험을 성공적으로 수행하였다. 수행된 연구결과는 향후 건설되어질 우주센터내의 발사장 기반설비 설계의 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

The interest on the utilization of landfill gases and biogases for energy production has been increasing due to environment concerns and global warming caused by burning fossil fuels, renewable nature of these gases. Using those synthesis gases to generate energy with engine encourages more efficient collection reducing emissions into the atmosphere and generates revenues for the operators. However the lower calorific value of synthesis gases than that of LPG or CNG affects the combustion stability and power output. Thus it becomes necessary to address disadvantages involved by studying synthesis gases in technological perspective. This paper discussed synthesis gas as a fuel for 60kW dual-fuel engine to produce power in an effective way. The methane diluted with $N_2$ was used as a fuel and developed ECU and injector driver facilitated the investigations with diesel fuel.

Internal combustion engines running on syngas, which can be obtained from biomass or organic wastes, are expected to be one of the suitable alternatives for power generation, because they are environment-friendly and do not contribute to the depletion of fossil fuels. However, syngas has variable compositions and a lower heating value than pure natural gas, owing to which the combustion conditions need to be adjusted in order to achieve stable combustion. In this study, a gas that has the same characteristics as syngas, such as low heating value (LHV), was produced by mixing $N_2$ with compressed natural gas (CNG). In addition, this study investigates the combustion characteristics of syngas when it is mixed with hydrogen in a ratio ranging from 10% to 30% with a constant LHV of total gas.

서울의 시정장애 현상은 80년 이후부터 계속 심화되고 있어 ‘서울 스모그’라는 새로운 용어를 탄생시키기에 이르렀다. 서울 스모그 발생은 가정용 연료의 연소와 노천소각에 의한 일부 원인과 함께, 대부분은 자동차 배출물질에 의해 유발되는 광화학 스모그는 미세한 입자상 물질에 의해 복합적으로 나타나는 것으로 알려져 있다. 서울지역의 자동차로부터 배출되는 오염비중은 1991년 54.4％에서 매년 증가하며 1997년부터 85％를 넘어섰다. (중략)

대기환경문제가 전지구촌의 현안과제로서 그 무엇보다 중요성이 크게 부각되고 있다. 이와 더불어 날로 높아져 가는 국민들의 쾌적한 환경에 대한 기대와 요구는 우리나라가 시급하게 해결해야하는 대기환경분야의 실질적 개선 방향으로 대도시 시정장애 현상을 제시하였다. 현재 정부의 청정연료와 저황유공급 확대, 저공해자동차 보급 등 각종 대기오염 저감정책에 힘입어 아황산가스와 먼지 등 개도국형 대기오염상태는 개선되는 추세이나, 자동차의 증가로 인한 이산화질소 및 오존의 오염도는 완만하게 증가하고 있는 상황이다. (중략)
