This paper presents characteristics of combustion and exhaust gas properties according to variation of the combustion chamber for economy and emissions standards. In order to use combustion and exhaust gas properties data, it is necessary to build some data base, which use cylinder pressure sensor and emission tester. A feasibility and necessity of combustion pressure based cylinder spark timing control has been examined. So, this was obtained the coefficient of variation(COV) and the specific fuel consumption(sfc). Using the results of the test, the effects of the variable combustion chamber can be improved combustion stability and be reduced exhaust emission.

본 연구에서는 가스보일러 가동 중 배기통이 이탈하는 상황이 발생했을 때, 시스템적으로 인지하고 자동으로 보일러 가동을 중지하여 일산화탄소를 포함한 유해 배기가스가 실내로 유입되는 상황을 근원적으로 차단하는 방안을 제시하였다: (1) 연소에 필요한 공기량을 제어하기 위해 설치된 풍압센서(APS : Air Pressure Sensor)의 출력전압을 측정하여 배기통의 정상상태와 이탈상태를 감시하는 기능을 추가한다. (2) 배기통이 이탈하면 APS의 출력전압이 상시 운전범위에서 일시적으로 상승하게 된다. 보일러 제어부인 PCB가 이 상태를 배기통 이탈로 간주하여 보일러 가동을 멈추면서 배기통 이탈 상태를 실내온도 조절기에 표시하도록 한다. 또한 국토교통부령으로 정한 「건축물의 설비기준 등에 관한 규칙」에서 명시한 공동주택 및 다중이용시설의 환기시설 기준에 따라, 실내공기 교환횟수에 맞는 풍량을 적용하여 실내공기를 환기하는 실험을 실시하였다. 이 실험 결과 실제 일산화탄소가 실내에 누출된 최악의 상태에서, 중독사고 예방이 가능하다는 것을 확인하였다. 다만, 동 규칙에서 정의한 시간당 실내공기 교환횟수를 기존 0.7회에서 0.5회로 2013년부터 완화하여 운영하고 있는데, 실험결과 8시간 가중평균 노출기준인 TWA 30 ppm을 초과하는 농도가 측정되어 기준을 강화할 필요성이 있다. 본 연구 결과에 기초하여 가스보일러 배기압력의 기계적 인지를 통해 배기통 이탈을 감지하는 기술과 일산화탄소 경보기와 연동된 실내공기 환기시스템 기술을 도입한다면 일산화탄소 중독사고가 크게 감소될 것으로 판단된다. 제조 및 검사단계의 문제점을 보완하고, 올바른 설치 및 수리, 사용자의 배기통 이탈에 대한 관심이 더해졌을 때, 일산화탄소 중독으로 인한 인명사고를 예방하는데 효과적인 대책이 될 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, a neural network estimator which estimates the output of the wide range oxygen sensor is proposed, The neural network estimator is constructed to give the output of the wide range oxygen sensor from rpm, fuel injection time, throttle position, and output voltage of the exhaust gas oxygen sensor. And, using this estimator, PI controller for air-fuel ratio control is designed. Experiment results show that the proposed method gives good results for SONATA engine under light load and constant rpms.

A fast response $CO_2$ analyzer has been developed to study transient characteristics on an SI engine. The analyzer has the delay time of 4.5 ms and time constant of 2.8 ms, which is fast enough to measure $CO_2$ concentration on a transient condition. Wide range of A/F(Air/Fuel) ratio can be estimated using the analyzer with an additional switch type oxygen sensor. The results of measurement of $CO_2$ concentration and A/F ratio on a transient condition including rapid acceleration/deceleration and EGR(Ehxaust Gas Recirculation) on/off are presented and compared with a commercial exhaust gas analyzer and UEGO(Universial Exhaust Gas Oxyzen) sensor.

This work forcus on the development of gas sensor that measure the concentrations of exhaust gas using diode laser, Each diode laser for exhaust gas measurement is set to work at near-IR using both DA and WMS methods. Also use of fiber-coupled optical elements makes such a sensor rugged and easy to align. The results showed that gas concentrations of $O_2$, CO, $CO_2$, NO are accurately measured within ${\pm}2%$ error. The application of WMS method increased the beam intensity 2-3 times higher than DA method. It were experimentally compared WMS (Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy) with DA (Direct Absorption) for the accuracy.

The EGR system has been widely used to reduce nitrogen oxides (NO$\_$x/) emission, to improve fuel economy and suppress knock by using the characteristics of charge dilution. However, as the EGR rate at a given engine operating condition increases, the combustion instability increases. The combustion instability increases cyclic variations resulting in the deterioration of engine performance and emissions. Therefore, the optimum EGR rate should be carefully determined in order to obtain the better engine performance and emissions. An experimental study has been performed to investigate the effects of EGR on combustion stability, engine performance,70x and the other exhaust emissions from 1.5 liter gasoline engine. Operating conditions are selected from the test result of the high speed and high acceleration region of SFTP mode which generates more NO$\_$x/ and needs higher engine speed compared to FTP-75 (Federal Test Procedure) mode. Engine power, fuel consumption and exhaust emissions are measured with various EGR rate. Combustion stability is analyzed by examining the variation of indicated mean effective pressure (COV$\_$imep/) and the timings of maximum pressure (P$\_$max/) location using pressure sensor. Engine performance is analyzed by investigating engine power and maximum cylinder pressure and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC)

This paper is concerned with the Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine as a new concept in engines and a power source for future automotive applications. Essentially a combination of spark ignition and compression ignition engines, the HCCI engine exhibits low NOx and Particulate Matter (PM) emissions as well as high efficiency under part load. The objective of this research is to determine the effects of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) rate on the combustion processes of HCCI. For this purpose, a 4-cylinder, compression ignition engine was converted into a HCCI engine, and a heating device was installed to raise the temperature of the intake air and also to make it more consistent. In addition, a pressure sensor was inserted into each of the cylinders to investigate the differences in characteristics among the cylinders.

This paper is a part of developing a computer code that can be used to generate IR images of a naval ship by considering the emitted and reflected infrared signals. The spectral radiance received by an IR sensor is consisted of the self-emitted component from the ship surface, the reflected component of the solar/sky irradiance at the ship surface, the emitted radiance from the ship surface and the exhaust plume gas, and the scattered radiance by the atmosphere. The plume gas radiance occupies a large part of the emitted radiance from a naval ship in operation. Therefore plume gas radiance must be taken into account when calculating the radiance from a naval ship for reliable IR images. In this paper, IR images of a naval ship with the exhaust gas effect in various environmental conditions are generated by using an exhaust gas prediction model called the JPL model. The contrast radiance (CR) values of the IR images are calculated to analyze the effect of the exhaust gas radiance quantitatively. The results obtained by quantitative analysis show that the IR signatures with the exhaust plume gas are 2.26 times larger than those neglecting the plume gas effect. The effect of the exhaust plume gas is shown to be more eminent in winter than in summer in the daytime.

The outputs of measurement are fed into a data acquisition system then to a PC in the laboratory. There has been realised the first test installation with which research on the new ammonia sensor is carried out. The primary research results are presented.
