본 논문에서는 엔진의 엔진성능, 안전성 및 내구성에 직접적인 영향을 미칠 수 있는 LP 연료필터의 유동 특성을 분석하고자 하였다. LP 연료필터를 3차원 모델링하였으며, 유동해석을 위하여 계산격자를 구성하고 유동해석을 수행하였다. 유동장을 분석하여 입구부를 거쳐 연료필터를 지나 출구부까지 유동이 원활한 것을 확인하였고, LP 연료의 유동장은 필터내에서 양호한 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 연료필터 내부의 압력강하량을 분석하였으며, 질량유량이 증가함에 따라 압력강하량이 증가하였다.

This paper contains the process of investigating the cause of fuel filter contamination of P&WC's PT6A-67A engine. An outline of the fuel filter contamination and configuration of the fuel supply line are specified. The analytical methods were classified into fuel component analysis and solid sediment analysis(EDX, TGA, optical microscope). In summary, the sulfur was detected from fuel tank sealant as a major contamination component. As a follow-up, P&WC and the Agency for Defense Development will conduct engine fuel filter cycle checks and fuel tank cleaning for engine operation.

Blocking of fuel filter in aircraft greatly can affect loss of pilot's life and of the aircraft. The investigation of failures is, thus, of vital importance in preventing incidents in advance. The fuel filter of aircraft plays an important role in filtering various debris from jet fuel. It filters impurities smaller than 10 ${\mu}m$ particles from jet fuel provided with the speed of 1,330 pounds per hour. It must be replaced per 500 h on the basis of operating time. However, even before reaching 500 h, the warning sign lighted on due to blocking of fuel filter. Recently, these similar defects have happened repeatedly. Therefore, in this study, the cause of blocking fuel filter in aircraft was investigated using various analytical techniques such as FT-IR microscopy, FE-SEM/EDS, and total sulfur determinator. Consequently, the blocking material of fuel filter was identified to an accelerator from the integral fuel tank sealant. And a mechanism for the formation of the blocking material of fuel filter by an accelerator blooming phenomenon in fuel tank was suggested.

In recent years, the needs for more fuel-efficient and lower-emission vehicles have driven to use the alternative fuel of LPG(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) which is able to meet the more stringent legislations without many modifications to current engine. LPLi (Liquid Phase LPG Injection) system (the 3rd generation LPG injection system) is the core technology to produce power equivalent to a gasoline engine with less emissions. The LPG fuel pump can supply the compressed LP gas in the liquid phase to engine. The fuel filter is attached in the fuel pump to eliminate the remnants in the liquid phased LP gas and the performance of blowoff flow for a pump can be varied with various filters. In this study, experiments were conducted to investigate the performance and efficiency of the impeller type LPG fuel pump under various filter types of microfiber, double mesh and external filter. And blowoff flow for a LPG fuel pump was measured according to the temperature of the fuel.

In this paper, we have developed sensor composited heater of 2-pin, and unified the fuel filter. In order to evaluate the performance of the 2-pin sensor composited fuel heater, we have make of the low temperature fluidity system.

Especially, in the characteristics verification elements of the proposed goods, we use the test chamber for the temperature variable and oil flow quantity test, and designed an embedded system for interfacing an engine. By interfacing both user and the system, it support an experimental and date gathering function in 2-pin sensor composited fuel filter. And then test the temperature, oil pressure, electrical characteristics and oil flow quantity in variable status from - 30 ℃ to + 80 ℃. These can help us to determine the quality and performance of elementary goods.

In this paper, temperature, pressure and flow analysis system for testing a fuel filter of a diesel engine at the low-temperature environment in winter, is proposed. The light oil of diesel engine below a specific temperature is changed to the waxing materials like paraffin, and it prevents engine to start easily because of reducing fluidity. Thus, built-in block heater should be installed with fuel filter in order to solve this problem. And it is necessary to design evaluation system that can analyze the performance according to temperature, pressure and flow characteristics near fuel filter at a very low temperature. In this paper, we measured a physical quantity related to the performance of around the fuel filter using the proposed system, and analyzed their characteristics. Also the measured data is transferred to remote user by using a web server of embedded systems, and analyzed their conditions in remote place via web browser in order to know the operating status of fuel filter. We installed the proposed system in a small test chamber to verify the performance and took an experiment in normal temperature and very low temperature, and could obtain temperature, pressure and flow of near the fuel filter. As a result, the fuel flow could be improved during operation of the fuel heater.

The amount of fuel, which affects aircraft endurance, needs to be measured accurately. This paper deals with the implementation of a fuel quantity measurement system that consists of capacitive fuel sensor, DAQ board, and Labview software. The main circuit of the implemented system for measuring fuel quantity is simulated with Pspice to identify parameters, which are related to the change of fuel quantity. After simulation, we established that Vrms changes with the variation of fuel amount. The Vrms, which is the output of fuel sensor, is transmitted to the Labview software via the DAQ board of the implemented fuel quantity measurement system. The fuel quantity is also calculated using this software. The present simulation results indicated that the accuracy of the implemented fuel quantity measurement system improved with the filter application.
