Recently it has been focused that the automobile engine has developed in a strong upward tendency for the use of the high viscosity and poorer quality fuels in achieving the high performance, fuel economy, and emission reduction. Therefore it is not easy to solve the problems between low specific fuel consumption, and exhaust emission control at automotive engine In this study, it is designed and used the test bed which is installed with fuel injector controller. In addition to equipped engine using CRDI by controlling the injection timing with modulator, it has tested and analyzed the engine cycle variation characteristics, as it is varied that they are the operating parameters: fuel injected quantity, injection timing, engine speed and scavenging pressure.

In this study, A BED(Binary ECG description) based binary ECG conversion system is that supports the conversion of a binary ECG format into XML-based HL7 aECG for interoperability of ECG. HL7 aECG is a XML based standard lot interoperability of ECG waveform. However, it is difficult for beginners to write the BED document of binary BED conversion system in XML. We implement a BED Studio on the Java Servlet engine that allows beginners to write BED documents more easily. Our system consists of three parts: Visual Editor, Text Editor, and Format Checking Viewer. Format Checking Viewer support users to detect the format errors in the XML files, so-called BED documents, that describe the data format of the targer binary ECG file in the BED-based binary ECG conversion system, so may reduce the format errors in BED documents.

In this study, waste cooking oil was gasified in a fluidized bed reactor. The main objective of this study was to produce clean producer gas for power generation engine. As a result, heating value of producer gas is suitable for engine operation and tar content in producer gas was satisfied after use of activated carbon filter. Results from a lab scale experiment and a preliminary results from a pilot scale experiment will be presented.

Experiments were conducted to investigate the temperature profile and the emissions conversion efficiency of catalytic converters for natural gas vehicles. Two types of the catalyst structure and several transient engine operating conditions were used. The dual-bed catalyst effectively reduced the emissions in a transient period due to the low heat capacity of the front bed. The lanthanoid additives were effective in improving catalyst durability. When the natural gas fueled engine were operated outside of a very narrow window of excess air ratio (from 0.993 to 1.004), the HC and NOx conversion efficiency dropped off. The drop-off were especially fast on the lean side of the window.

An analysis has been performed for active thermal control of the KOMPSAT monopropellant rocket engine assembly, i.e., dual thruster module(DTM). The main efforts of this work have been directed at determining proper heater sizes for propellant valves and catalyst beds necessary to maintain their temperatures within specified temperature ranges under KOMPSAT environment and operational conditions. The TAS incorporated with TRASYS thermal radiation analyzer was used to establish a complete heat transfer model which allows to predict the DTM temperature as a function of time. The thermal analysis has been performed in transient mode to verify the appropriate power for catalyst bed heaters necessary to increase catalyst bed temperature to the required value within a specified period of time. Similar analysis has been executed to validate the heater power for the thermostatically controlled primary and redundant heater circuits used to prevent hydrazine freezing, i.e., single fault. Moreover the effect of the radiative property of thermal control coating of heat shield was examined. Thruster firing condition was also simulated for the heat soakback condition. As a consequence, all thermal analysis results for DTM satisfactorily met the thermal requirements for the KOMPSAT DTM under the worst case average voltage, i.e. 25 volt.

In this study, a test bed for vehicle longitudinal control is developed using a chassis dynamometer and real time 3-D graphics. The proposed test bed system consists of a chassis dynamometer on which test vehicle can run longitudinally, a video system that shows virtual driver view, and computers that control the test vehicle and realize the real time 3-D graphics. The purpose of the proposed system is to test vehicle longitudinal control and warning algorithms such as Adaptive Cruise Control(ACC), stop and go systems, and collision warning systems. For acceleration and deceleration situations which only need throttle movements, a vehicle longitudinal spacing control algorithm has been tested on the test bed. The spacing control algorithm has been designed based on sliding mode control and road grade estimation scheme which utilizes the vehicle engine torque map and gear shift information.

Gasification of rice chaff has traditionally been used to produce a clean fuel suitable for lighting, heating and engine application. Since oil crisis, a series of experimental study has been performed to drive a farm engine by agricultural wastes. We produced a combustible gas from rice chaff with a fixed bed up-draught gasifier system, and applied it to a conventional farm kerosene engine. This experiment was quite successful one. We could drive the farm engine with maximum horse power of 9 PS by rice chaff gas which was fairly competitive to the continuous horse power of 10 PS obtained when kerosene was used. Problems of tar existence in gas have been discussed, but we are confident that these can be solved in near future. Development and application of the gasification process will help our farm economy, not only by conserving petroleum oil but by utilizing agricultural wastes.

A cycle simulation program is developed and its predictions are compared with the test bed measurements of a direct injection (DI) diesel engine. It is based on the mass and energy conservation equations with phenomenological models for diesel combustion. Two modeling approaches for combustion have been tested; a multi-zone model by Hiroyasu et al (1976) and the other one coupled with an in-cylinder flow model. The results of the two combustion models are compared with the measured imep, pressure trace and NOx and soot emissions over a range of the engine loads and speeds. A parametric study is performed for the fuel injection timing and pressure, the swirl ratio, and the squish area. The calculation results agree with the measured data, and with intuitive understanding of the general operating characteristics of a DI diesel engine.

It becomes necessary for engine manufactures to verify whether lots of engines on test bed during shop test are in compliance with NOx Technical Code for marine diesel engines more efficiently on the basis of engine group test concept which contains parent engine and member engines since all the engines are not needed to take NOx measurement. In addition, it becomes more obliged to consider parameters which affect NOx emission level and describe these parameters in NOx technical file as engine information and settings to define engine operation range with tolerance to make sure the engines are still in compliance with NOx emission limit on board after shop test. During preparation of engine group test for 4-stroke marine diesel engines, we evaluated NOx emission value under different engine operating conditions and found that there are certain parameters, for example, Charge air temperature and Max. cylinder pressure which have influence on NOx emission level. The NOx emission shall be satisfied with NOx technical code by means of controlling such parameters.
