70년대초만 하여도 디이젤기관의 배출가스에 대해서는 일반적으로 그렇게 문제시 인식되지 않 았다. 다만 우리들 감각으로 흑연이 나오니까 CO가 많겠고, 특유의 주기가 있으니 HC가 많지 않 을까\ulcorner 하는 정도 였었다. 또한 가솔린 기관에 비하여 유해배출가스가 비교적 적기 때문에 그에 대한 연구도 눈에 띄게 진전하지 않았다. 공해의 선진국이라 말할 수 있는 미국. 일본에서도 가솔린기관의 규제보다 5,6년 늦어, 캘리포오니아주에서는 1973년에 제안하여 규제가 시작되었고, 일본에서도 디이젤기관의 본격적 오염도 규제가 1975년부터 시작하였다. 그러나 최근 가솔린 기관의 배출가스 공해문제의 해결대책이 극한에 달해 가고 있고, 도시인구의 대량집중화 및 수 송화물차량의 급증으로 디이젤차량(Bus, Truck 등)의 교통수단이 증대 일로에 있다. 이에 따라 디이젤기관의 배출가스의 대책도 심각하게 되어 연구가 활발하게 이루어져 가고 있다. 따라서 본 소고에서는 디이젤기관의 오염물질배출기구와 배출가스에 영향을 주는 제요소 및 그 대책에 대 하여 개괄적으로 간단히 살펴보기로 한다.

One of the major causes of serious air pollution worldwide is emissions from road transportation. A number of countries are working to reduce vehicle emissions, and the Seoul Metropolitan Government is also implementing active policies to reduce emissions by setting a target of 40% by 2030. Implementing these policies requires the introduction of practical indicators. Most of the domestic emissions are calculated by the emission coefficient, a function of speed at the National Institute of Environmental Research under the Ministry of Environment, but the dynamic variable speed is limited to being used as an indicator of the number of eco-friendly vehicles. Therefore, this study calculated the emission rates in Seoul using the vehicle registration data of Seoul and the vehicle inspection data from the Korea Transportation Safety Authority. The tendency of emissions was determined according to key variables such as vehicle type, fuel and mileage. Emissions were based on carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter measured by vehicle inspection from the Korea Transportation Safety Authority. As a result, the emission rates showed a significant trend according to the model year and mileage. This can be used as a policy indicator to preferentially switch commercial vehicles with old model years and long mileage when switching eco-friendly vehicles in Seoul.

A mobile emission laboratory (MEL) was designed to measure the amount of traffic pollutants with high temporal and spatial resolution under real conditions. Equipment for gas-phase measurements of quantity of CO, NOx, $CO_2$, and THC and for the measurement of the number density and size distribution of fine and ultra-fine particles by a FMPS and a CPC were placed in a mini-van. The exhaust of different type of vehicles can be sampled by MEL. This paper describes the construction and technical details of the MEL and presents data from the experiment in which a car chases city buses fuelled by diesel, CNG, and LPG. The diameters of most particles in the exhaust of the diesel city bus were less than 300 nm and most of the particles had a diameter of 30-60 nm. However, most particles in the exhaust of the CNG and LPG city buses were nanoparticles (diameter: less than 50 nm).

As the interest on the air pollution is gradually rising up at home and abroad, automotive and fuel researchers have been working on the exhaust emission reduction from vehicles through a lot of approaches, which consist of new engine design, innovative after-treatment systems, using clean (eco-friendly alternative) fuels and fuel quality improvement. This research has brought forward various main issues : whether PM emissions should be regulated for diesel and gasoline vehicles and whether gasoline and LPG powered vehicles can be further neglected from PM emission inventories. Finally, the greenhouse gas ($CO_2$, $CH_4$, $N_2O$) regulation has been discussed including automotive emission regulation. The greenhouse gas and emissions (PM) particle of automotive had many problem that cause of ambient pollution, health effects. This paper discussed the influence of LPG fuel on automotive cold startability and exhaust emissions gas. Also, this paper assessed emission characteristics due to the test temperature. These test temperature were performed by dividing the temperature of the test mode and the lowest local temperature in winter. Through this study, the correlation of cold startability, exhaust emission and greenhouse gas emission was analyzed.

Purpose: Greenhouse gases are one of the major causes of global warming, a global disaster. It aims to improve how effective the GHG reduction policy, which is the main cause of global warming in the transportation sector, has been effective on the highway and how to calculate GHG emissions. Method: Using the DSRC raw data, we estimate the emissions of Namhae Expressway (Yeongam-Suncheon) from 2017 to 2019 in two ways, a macro method (conventional) and a micro method (individual vehicle). Result: As a result of calculating the emission of the highway, the result was far exceeding the estimated emission, and it was found that when the calculation was performed for each vehicle, it was underestimated by more than 20%. Conclusion: If more emissions are continuously emitted than expected in the current transportation sector, additional emission reduction policies are needed to achieve the current greenhouse gas reduction targets. In addition, in the calculation of emissions, which is the basis of this policy, analysis was conducted for each individual vehicle using the current DSRC raw data, but using GPS afterwards will enable precise emission calculation through a more microscopic analysis.

천연가스차량이 배출하는 미연 탄화수소 중 약 80%이상이 메탄으로 구성 되어있다. 메탄은 그 자체로 유독성 물질은 아니지만 이산화탄소와 더불어 지구온난화를 유발하는 온실가스로 향후 강력한 규제가 예상되는 물질로 이를 저감하는 기술 개발이 이루어져야하나 연료 특성상 이를 줄이는데 어려움이 있다. 최근 연구에 의하면 천연가스엔진에 수소를 일정량(15%이상) 첨가할 경우 배출가스 및 성능 이 상당량 개선되는 결과를 보이고 있다. 이는 종래 천연가스 연소의 문제점인 지연된 화염 전파 속도를 수소 연료를 첨가함에 따라 화염 전파속도를 촉진시켜 적정한 연소를 야기 시켜 미연탄화수소 배출이 줄어들고 열효율도 향상되는 결과를 보이고 있다. 이와 같이 수소와 천연가스연료의 각각의 장점을 활용한 Hy-thane 엔진을 개발할 경우 무공해엔진에 근접한 초 저공해 동력장치 개발이 가능하며 이에 대한 상용화 측면에서 산업용 발전기, GEHP, 차량용 엔진 등 활용도가 크기 때문에 그 개발이 절실히 필요하다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 과제에서는 이중연료를 사용하는 수소-천연가스 기관을 개발하고 이를 효과적으로 제어할 수 있는 제어시스템을 개발하여, 기관효율 향상과 배기가스저감을 이루었다.

The capacity of highway is restricted and traffic congestion is caused by increasing traffic demand. Also, greenhouse gases are increased by traffic congestion. CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) is an idea of interest to reduce greenhouse gases. However, CDM's cases applied in traffic field are rare. Thus, it is necessary that methodology to reduce greenhouse gas should be developed and applied to CDM. A methodology for identifying greenhouse gas emissions was developed in this paper. This methodology was developed on the basis of baseline methodology registered at UN. Travel time and speed in the conventional traffic condition and in the automated traffic condition are compared by BPR function. The calculated speed applied to emission factor equation and then $CO_2$ emissions was calculated. A simulation was executed to evaluate the validity of the developed methodology. In the result, advanced vehicle's $CO_2$ emissions are more than conventional vehicle's $CO_2$ emissions in the stable flow condition. However, advanced vehicle's $CO_2$ emissions are less than conventional vehicle's $CO_2$ emissions in the unstable flow condition. It is assure that capacity of highway is enhanced and efficiency of highway is improved by adopting advanced safety vehicle in the smart road.

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) are often used as fuel for vehicles because they are clean alternative gas fuels. CNG, as a low-carbon fuel, can contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. LPG is often used as fuel for taxis because the performance is almost the same as that of gasoline but the price is lower. In the present study, the exhaust gas and the particle number (PN) of particulate matter, which is a recent environmental issue, were compared between LPG and CNG for the same vehicle. A chassis dynamometer was used to conduct the test according to the Federal Test Procedure (FTP)-75 and Worldwide harmonized Light-duty vehicle Test Procedure (WLTC) modes. The PN values of discharged particles having sizes of 5 nm or larger and 23 nm or larger were measured using two condensation particle counters (CPC). The ratio of carbon dioxide was high in the exhaust gas from the LPG vehicle; the ratio of methane was high in the exhaust gas from the CNG vehicle. The PN values of the emitted particles from the two fuels were similar. The PN values of particles having sizes of 23 nm or smaller were high in the high-speed WLTC mode.

For the past decades, vehicle emissions has been a major source of air pollution in urban areas Vehicle inspection and maintenance (I/M) test programs were developed for major metropolitan areas to reduce urban air pollution. However. there are a few studies of exploring major factors to influence I/M test failure. This study develops a logit model to identify key factors affecting overall test failure, using the vehicle I/M test data from California in October 2002. The model results indicate that vehicle age, odometer reading, engine size, vehicle make, presences of emissions control equipment, and test types have significant effects on the probability of I/M test failure.
