GDI(Gasoline Direct Injection( engine technology is well known as a new technology since it can improve fuel consumption and meet future emission regulations. But the GDI has many difficulties to be solved, such as complexity of injection control mode, unburned hydrocarbon, and restricted power. A 2-D shape combustion chamber was adopted to investigate mixture formation and combustion characteristics of GDI engine. Spray and combustion experiments were performed by changing the injection timing. injection pressure an din-cylinder flow in Rapid Compression and Expansion Machine(RCEM).Through the experiments, the detailed characteristics of fuel spray and combustion was analyzed by visualizing the in-cylinder phenomena according to the change of injection condition, and the optimal fuel injection timing and fuel injection pressure were obtained.

This study was performed to investigate the behavior of liquid and vapor phase of fuel mixtures with different piston cavity diameters in a optically accessible engine. The conventional engine was modified as Central Injected DI gasoline engine with swirl motion. Two dimensional spray fluorescence images of liquid and vapor phase were acquired to analyze spray behavior and fuel distribution inside of cylinder using exciplex fluorescence method. Piston cavity geometries were set by Type S, M and L. The results obtained are as follows. In the spray formation after SOI, the cone angle and width of the spray were decreased at late injection timing. With a fuel injection timing of BTDC $180^{\circ}C$, fuel was not greatly affected in a piston cavity but generally distributed as homogeneous mixture in the cylinder. With a fuel injection timings of BTDC $90{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$, fuel mixture was widely distributed in near the cavity center. As a injection timing was late in the compression stroke, residual width of fuel mixture was narrow in proportion to piston cavity.

This paper is intended to analyze the macroscopic behavior and transient atomization characteristics of the high-pressure gasoline injector in direct-injection gasoline engine. The global spray behavior of fuel injector was visualized by shadowgraph technique. Time-resolved droplet axial and radial velocity components and droplet diameter were measured at many probe positions in both axial and radial directions by a two-component phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA). In order to obtain the influence of fuel injection pressure, the macroscopic visualization and experiment of particle measurement on the fuel spray were investigated at 3,5 and 7 MPa of injection pressure under different surrounding pressure in the spray chamber. The results of this work show that the fuel injection pressure of gasoline injector in GDI engine has influence upon the mean droplet diameter, mean velocity of spray droplet, the spray tip penetration, and spray width under the elevated ambient pressure.

This study was performed to investigate the behavior of vapor phase of fuel mixtures with different piston bowl shapes(F, B and R-type) in a optically accessible engine. The images of liquid and vapor phases were captured in the motoring engine using exciplex fluorescence method. Fuel was injected into atmospheric nitrogen to prevent quenching phenomenon by oxygen. Injection pressure was 5.1MPa. Two dimensional spray fluorescence image of vapor phase was acquired to analyze spray behaviors and fuel distribution inside of cylinder. Four injection timings were set at BTDC 90$^{\circ}$, 80$^{\circ}$, 70$^{\circ}$, and 60$^{\circ}$. With a fuel injection timing of BTDC 90$^{\circ}$, fuel-rich mixture level in the center region was highest in a B-type piston. With a fuel injection timing of BTDC 60$^{\circ}$, R-type piston was best. R-type piston shape was suitable under enhanced swirl ratio and late injection condition and B-type piston shape was right in a weak swirl ratio. It was found that the piston bowl shape affected the mixture stratification inside of cylinder.

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the global spray behavior and spray characteristics of high-pressure fuel injector in the direct-injection goasoline enginet. The atomization characteristics of fuel spary such as mean droplet size, mean velocity , and velocity distribution were measured by the phase Doppler particle analyzer. The spray tip penetration and spray width were investigated by the result fo visualizaiton experiment. The quantitiative spary characteristics of injector spray were measured under various sparay conditions and ambient pressures. The results of experiment show that the increase in ambient pressure have influence on the spray tip penetration and spray development process. Also, the influence of injection pressure and measuring location on the mean velocity and droplet size distribution were discussed.

High-pressure swirl injectors have usually been employed in Gasoline direct injection engines due to their spray characteristics and the feasibility of their control. Thus the microscopic characteristics of high-pressure swirl spray were investigated by PDA. The correlation between axial and radial velocities and the correlation between droplet size and axial velocity were examined with different axial and radial positions. Two dimensional droplet velocity and its number distribution with size-classified droplets were illustrated. The mean droplet velocity and its SMD were also analyzed at the center of spray, the position having maximum mean axial velocity, and the spray periphery using time dividing method. Finally, the structure of high-pressure swirl spray was presented with the size distribution and velocity profile of droplets.

최근 탈석유 에너지 이행의 목표가 분명해지는 가운데 천연가스가 가교연료로서 주목받고 있다. 천연가스는 옥탄가가 높아 압축비를 높여도 노킹이 일어나지 않기 때문에 열효율과 출력을 두루 향상시킬 수 있을 뿐 아니라 기존 내연기관 하드웨어 시스템에 천연가스 공급 시스템 적용을 비교적 용이하게 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 승용 가솔린 직분사 터보 엔진을 천연가스 포트분사식 터보 엔진으로 개조하여 터보가 작동되는 운전 영역에서 대상 엔진의 연소 및 성능을 종합적으로 측정 및 비교하였다.
