Natural gas is gaining more attraction as a future fuel in particular both for environmental protection and energy conservation. In order to bring about more widespread use of gaseous engines, the technology capable of achieving output and efficiency performance equivalent to that of diesel engines needs to be developed. In the present paper, the requirements of the pilot torch from pre-chamber for ensuring ignition and promoting combustion are discussed by means of taking high-speed flame photography and system can run with leaner mixture of various fuels comparing to the electric plug ignition system cause the ignition delay period ignited with the torch and the combustion period are very short in spite of changing A/F of gaseous fuels in the main chamber. However, the suitable piston-cavity design for the use of lower-hydrocarbon fuels such as propane and butane must be discussed increasingly in the mear future.

Natural gas is one of the promising alternative fuels because of the abundant deposits and the cleanness of emission gas. CNG has a lot of merits except lower burning speed has a slow disadvantage. One way to overcome the disadvantage is to raise a turbulence intensity. We give various intake for changing turbulence intensity in the cylinder by three kinds of swirl control valve with a way to raise a turbulence intensity. In the present study, a $1.8\ell$ conventional gasoline engine is modified to use a CNG as a fuel instead of gasoline. We try to virify combustion and emission characteristics in each engine parameters. Parameters of experimentation are equivalence ratio, spark timing and intake flow change. The results of this study are as swirl flows. In the case of adding swirl flow, burning speed and torque are increased. But NOx and THC concentration are increased a little respectively.

The operating torque and tribological characteristics of the cam/tappet system in an I.C. engine have an important effect on engine efficiency. In this paper, we measured the torque of cam/tappet system with respect to the oil temperature and camshaft speed to characterize the tribological behavior. Also, accelerated test was performed to analyze the wear characteristics of cam/tappet interface. The torque of the cam/tappet system decreased with respect to camshaft speed and was not significantly affected by the oil temperature. The results of accelerated test showed that the running-in wear occurred during the tests and the center of the tappet was mainly damaged by the rolling and sliding friction.

Turbocharger bearings are under the circumstance of high temperature, moreover rotated at high speed. It is necessary to be designed to overcome the high temperature. So the type of oil inlet port, the inlet oil temperature and the sort of engine oil should be designed, controlled and selected carefully in order to reduce the bearing inside temperature. Therefore, in this study, the effects of the type of inlet oil port, inlet temperature and the sort of engine oil on the performance of a turbocharger bearing are to be investigated. It is found that the type of oil inlet ports, the control of inlet oil temperature and the selection of engine oil type play important roles in determining the temperature and pressure, then the friction and load of a turbocharger journal bearing at high speed operation.

To develop the Exhaust Maniverter(Manifold and converter) it needs to consider flow characteristics related to durability and performance of the catalyst, manufacturability, etc. This paper presents the analysis results regarding to flow characteristics such as flow uniformity, tangential speed, O2 sensor sensitivity and CHT (conjugate heat transfer) for the LCF(Low Cycle Fatigue) for gasoline 2.0 liter engine. The results are satisfactorily corresponded to the general criteria. Also skin temperature and pressure drop wire measured at the Engine Bench. These results can be useful for the design guide for Exhaust Maniverter.

During the last decade, engine makers have developed new types or increasing power rate engines to enlarge theirs marketing shear in two stroke, low-speed diesel engines. As the results, these engines have increased the additional stresses due to torsional vibration more than old model engines. The torsional vibration dampers are necessary in order to reduce heigher additional stresses of intermediate and crank shaft in these engine. In this paper, the optimum designing of Geislinger type torsional Damper has been carried out, based on the theoretical conception. The dynamic characteristics and performance fo dampers are estimated by the measuring results obtained with the monitoring system of dampers and additional stresses of propulsion shafts.

It is important to understand the friction characteristics between piston-ring assembly and cylinder wall for the friction loss reduction as well as the solution of problem such as scuffing wear and oil consumption. A new system was developed for the piston-ring assembly friction force measurement. This system was applied to the friction force measurement to find its functional relationship with variables such as engine speed, oil viscosity, and engine load. The friction mean effective pressure(fmep) was found to have a linear relationship with$(\vpsilon{U})^{0.42}$ under motering and with$(\vpsilon{U})^{0.45}$ under firing operations, where $\vpsilon$ is the kinematic oil viscosity and U is mean piston speed.

Hot test of a full-scale turbopump for a 30-ton-thrust liquid rocket engine was carried out. The turbopump is composed of an oxidizer pump, a fuel pump, and a turbine on a single shaft. Model fluid was used in the test, that is, hot air for the turbine and water for the pumps. The turbopump was operated stably at full speed for 120 seconds. In terms of performance characteristics of pumps and turbine, the results from the turbopump assembly test are compared with those from the turbopump component tests which were performed at about half of the design rotational speed.

Present paper describes on/off design performance analysis of an 74KW industrial turboshaft gasturbine engine. Procedures to match between the compressor, combustor and turbine have been incorporated into the developed program satisfying compatibility requirement of flow and work and ratational speed. The validity of the performance results from the developed program are yet to be proved through performance experiments of the resultant engine, but comparison of the present results with those from "GASCAN(Thermoflow:America) under similar mass inlet flow, pressure ratio, and speed condition show good agreement despite present results underpredict 6-10% for power and up to 3% in efficiency, respectively.

In this paper, a new drive system(SHS) for hybrid electric vehicle is proposed. As dual rotor hybrid electric vehicle using planetary gearsets, the SHS has the advantages of both series and parallel systems. The output speed and torque of SHS can be determined at specific point regardless of the engine's operating point. When the size of generator which is used in SHS is same as in THS, the SHS has more activities of engine control due to the ability that is operated in lower speed range. To maximize the performance of system, we carried out optimization for the three parameters that are engine, motorl and motor2. As the result of the optimization, we confirmed the SHS is more preferable to THS in fuel consumption and acceleration area.
