In a bi-fuel engine using gasoline and LPG fuel, with the current ignition timing for gasoline being used, the effective performance could not be taken in LPG fuel supply mode. The ignition timing in LPG fuel mode must be advanced much more than that of gasoline mode for the compensation of its lower flame speed, due to engine torque drop. This study aims to develop the control system for ignition spark timing conversion which is composed of hardwares and control algorithm for gasoline/LPG engine. We propose the control system which can advance the ignition spark timing in LPG fuel mode more than used in gasoline fuel mode. The advance of ignition timing is achieved by change of the ignition dwell time of coil igniter. The engine torque and F/E(Fuel-Economy) in LPG fuel mode are measured to evaluate the difference of engine performance between before and alter changing ignition spark timings. The engine torque and F/E are increased respectively, which proves the developed control system is effective so much for gasoline and LPG bi-fuel engine.

In a bi-fuel engine using gasoline and LPG fuel, with the current ignition timing for gasoline being used, the optimum performance could not be taken in LPG fuel supply mode. The ignition timing in LPG fuel mode must be advanced much more than that of gasoline mode for the compensation of its higher ignition temperature. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the ignition spark timing conversion influences the engine performance of LPG/Gasoline Bi-Fuel engine. In order to investigate the engine performance during combustion, engine performance are sampled by data acquisition system, for example cylinder pressure, pressure rise rate and heat release rate, while change of the rpm(1500, 2000, 2500) and the ignition timing advance($5^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$). As the result, between 1500rpm, 2000rpm and 2500rpm, the cylinder pressure and pressure rise rate was increased when the spark ignition was advanced but pressure rise rate at $20^{\circ}$ was smaller value.

현재 점화코일은 소형화 및 친환경성을 위해 에폭시 몰딩 절연층으로 변화되었다. 그러나 에폭시 몰딩으로 변환됨에 따라 점화코일 내부 절연층에 대한 절연진단 및 노화에 대한 정확한 진단의 어려움으로 적절한 교체시기를 예측하기 더욱 어려워졌다. 그로 인해 점화장치부분에 대한 예기치 못한 사고는 대형사고 유발을 초래할 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 비파괴검사의 일종인 부분방전을 이용한 열화검출을 연구하기 위해 열화에 따른 위상각-방전전하량-방전빈도수의 분포 특성을 조사하였다. 또한 방전 발생의 분포가 동일 조건에서도 매우 불규칙성을 가지고 있으므로 데이터의 정량화를 위해 불규칙적인 통계처리를 위한 와이블 분포를 사용하여 기기의 고장시간예측을 조사하였다.
