In this study, a variable induction and exhaust system is applied to turbocharged diesel engine to improve the volumetric efficiency, especially, in a low and transient engine speed range where much of the pollutant matters are expelled out. The volumetric efficiency is known as one of the most important factor which affects significantly engine performance, fuel economy and further emission and noise level. As the torque increase with the engine speed up, the gas flow in an exhaust pipe become pulsating and then has an effect on boost up capacity of air charging into the cylinder and expelling capacity to atmosphere simultaneously. But at a low and idling speed, the pulsation effect was not so significant. Accordingly, resonator was employed to compensate their loss. The variable induction system consists of the secondary pipe, resonator, intercooler, and torque variance were examined with extended operating conditions. In the mean time, for interpretation and well understanding for the phenomena of wave action that arising during intake and exhaust process between turbocharger and variable intake system, the concept of the combined supercharging was introduced. Some of results are depicted which deal with a pressure history during valve events of induction process. Consequently, by the governing of these phase and amplitude of pulsating wave, it enables us to estimate and evaluate for the intake system performance and also, designing stage of the system layout.

The objective of the current research work is to investigate the usage of biodiesel combined with the use of EGR in order to reduce the emission of all regulated pollutants from diesel engines. A single cylinder, air cooled, constant speed direct injection diesel engine was used for the experimental work and a cold EGR system was developed and fitted to the engine. Concentrations of HCs, NOx, and CO from the exhaust gas along with the smoke opacity were measured. Engine performance parameters such as the brake thermal efficiency (BTE) and the brake specific energy consumption (BSEC) were also calculated from the measured data. The results from the present investigation suggest that 25-30% EGR rate could give excellent NOx reduction without any significance penalty on smoke opacity or BSEC under the engine load of up to 40%. Under the full load condition, 15% EGR rate was found to be an option while higher EGR rate resulted in inferior performance and heavy smoke.

Biodiesel has great potential as an alternative fuel for diesel engines that would reduce air pollution. It is a domestically produced, renewable fuel that can be manufactured from fresh or used vegetable oils, or from animal fats. In this study, a biodiesel fuel derived from rice bran oil was tested as an alternative fuel for agricultural diesel engines. The emissions were characterized for both neat and blended biodiesel fuels, and for conventional diesel fuel. Since this biodiesel fuel contained 11 % oxygen, it strongly influenced the combustion process. The use of biodiesel fuel resulted in lower carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and smoke emissions, without any increase in nitrous oxide emissions. The study demonstrated that biodiesel fuel could be effectively used as a renewable and environmentally innocuous fuel for agricultural diesel engines.

선박의 주 추진용 디젤엔진으로부터 배출되는 배기가스의 열을 회수하는 폐열회수 발전시스템에 대하여, 상대적으로 고온에 상부의 3 변 사이클과 상대적으로 저온부에 하부의 유기 랭킨 사이클이 적용되는 복합 사이클에 대한 열역학적 특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 상부와 하부 사이클 사이에 경계온도의 증가에 따라, 총 파괴된 엑서지율(${\sum}\dot{E}_d$) 및 엑서지 손실율($\dot{E}_{out2}$)이 각각 감소되었기 때문에, 시스템의 에너지 및 엑서지 효율이 모두 최대화되었다. 그리고 상부의 체적 팽창비가 크게 감소되었다. 그 경우에 대하여, 부가적인 추진동력으로써 활용되는 폐열회수 발전시스템이 적용된 선박용 디젤엔진의 경우에, 추진 효율은 엔진부하 변동에 따라 기본 엔진에 대비하여 평균적으로 9.17 %가 향상되었다. 이에 대하여, 디젤엔진의 연료 소비율과 이산화탄소 배출률은 각각 평균 8.4 및 8.37 %가 저감되었다.

배기가스 재순환장치는 디젤엔진에서 질소산화물을 저감시키는 기술로서 알려져 있다. 그러나 시스템 적용시 연료소비와 입자상물질을 증가시키기 때문에 기술 적용하는데 있어서 상당히 어려움이 있다. 그래서 실린더내의 연소시스템을 고려한 최적의 배기가스순환 비율을 산정하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 따라서 본 논문은 여러 가지의 EGR율을 변화시키면서 연소와 배기가스에 미치는 영향을 조사했다.

본 연구는 선회유동과 연소인자가 9.4L인 터보과급 디젤엔진의 성능과 배기가스특성에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 고찰하였다. 일반적으로 디젤엔진의 연소과정에서 선회유동은 분사되고 있는 연료와 흡칩공기의 혼합을 촉진시켜 줌으로써 엔진성능을 향상시키는데 매우 중요한 인자가 된다. 특히 터보과급 디젤엔진에서는 실린더내의 고온.고압가스로 인하여 연비와 NO$_{x}$ 농도는 서로 상반관계를 가지므로 적절한 용량의 과급기선정으로 흡.배기시스템, 분사시스템 및 연소실의 설계 등을 고려할 필요가 있다. 본 연구의 결과로서, 정상유동실험을 통하여 선회비가 증가함으로써 평균유량계수가 감소하고, 반면에 걸프 펙터가 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 엔진실험을 통하여 흡기포트의 선회비 2.43, 분사시기 BTDC 13$^{\circ}$ CA, 압축비 16, 리앤트란트 5$^{\circ}$형 연소실, 노즐분공경 $\Phi$0.28*6 및 과급기 GT40(압축기 A/R 0.58, 터빈 A/R 1.19)의 적용인자가 최적의 성능 및 배기가스를 만족시킬 수 있었다.

Recently, the automobile industry has been faced with very serious problems related to the very restricted regulations of exhaust gas emissions. Therefore many researchers have been attracted to the development of oxygenated fuel for a solution to these problems. This paper deals with the effects of oxygenated fuel on exhaust emissions. An experimental study was conducted to investigate PM and $NO_X$ emission using dimethyl carbonate as an oxygenated fuel in a naturally aspirated DI diesel engine. With increased oxygenated fuel amounts. there were significant reductions in PM, HC and CO emissions mainly from depressed thermal cracking. while little increase in $NO_X$ was encountered concurrently. The effective reduction in PM with oxygenated fuel was maintained with the presence of $CO_2$. which suggested low $NO_X$ and PM obtained from the combination of using oxygenated fuel and cooled EGR. Thermal cracking and an analysis of the heat release rate were also studied in the experiment.

The characteristics of intake port flow and engine performance with swirl ratio variance in a turbocharged D.I. diesel engine were studied in this paper. The intake port flow is important factor which have influence on the engine performance and exhaust emission because the properties in the injected fuel depend on the combustion characteristics. Through these experiments it can be expected to satisfy performance and emission by optimizing the main parameters; the swirl ratio of intake port, injection timing and compression ratio. The swirl ratio for ports was modified by hand-working and measured by impulse swirl meter. For the effects on performance and emission, the brake torque and brake specific fuel consumption were measured by engine dynamometer, NOx and smoke were measured by gas analyzer and smoke meter. The results of steady flow test are as follows; as the valve eccentricity ratio are closed to cylinder wall, the flow coefficient and swirl intensity are increased. Also we realized that there is a trade-off that the increase of swirl ratio decreases mean flow coefficient and increases the Gulf factor. And the optimum parameters to meet performance and emission through engine test are as follows; the swirl ratio 2.43, injection timing BTDC 13oCA and compression ratio 15.5.

Currently, due to the serious world-wide air pollution by substances emitted from vehicles, emission control is enforced more firmly and it is expected that the regulation requirements for emission will become more severe. Anew concept combustion technology that can reduce the NOx and PM in relation to combustion is urgently required. Due to such social requirement, technologically advanced countries are making efforts to develop an environment-friendly vehicle engine at the nation-wide level in order to respond to the reinforced emission control. As a core combustion technology among new combustion technologies for the next generation engine, the homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is expanding its application range by adopting multiple combustion mode, catalyst, direct fuel injection and partially premixed combustion. This study used a 2-staged injection method in order to apply the HCCI combustion method without significantly altering engine specifications in the aspect of multiple combustion mode and practicality by referring to the results of studies on the HCCI engine. And it is investigated that the effects of the engine rpm and load(or A/F) to emission characteristics.

비도로용 차량의 경우 대부분 디젤엔진을 사용하여 엔진의 특성상 PM과 NOx의 배출이 많은 단점이 있다. 승용 및 상용 디젤 차량의 경우 CRDI 및 후처리 장치를 적용하였고 후처리 장치로 DOC/DPF를 장착함으로써 PM은 약 90% 이상 저감 가능하다. 상반관계인 NOx는 EGR 사용을 통해 1차적으로 NOx 배출량을 감소시키고 LNT, LNC, Urea-SCR 등의 DeNOx 시스템으로 NOx의 배출량을 보다 현저히 저감시켜 배기규제를 만족시키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 tier 4 interim 배기규제를 만족하기 위해 56kW급 오프로드 차량으로 연구를 진행하였다. NOx의 감소를 위해 WGT와 전자 제어방식의 HPL EGR 시스템을 적용하였고 CO와 THC, PM 배출가스를 줄이기 위해 DOC와 DPF를 사용하였다. EGR 시스템을 적용하기 위해 각 조건에 대한 기본 실험을 실시하여 EGR map을 작성하였다. 작성된 map을 NRTC 모드에서 시험하여 map의 적용성을 검증하고 tier 4 interim 배기규제 만족여부를 파악하였다.
