Fuel consumption measurement of hydrogen fuel cell vehicle is considerably different from internal combustion engine vehicle such as carbon balance method. A practical method of fuel consumption measurement has been developed for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. There are three method of hydrogen fuel consumption testing, gravimetric, PVT (pressure, volume and temperature), and mass flow, all of which necessitate physical measurements of the fuel supply. The purpose of this research is to measure the fuel consumption of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles on chassis-dynamometer and to give information when the research is intended to develop test method to measure hydrogen fuel economy.

The relationship between vehicle driving pattern and fuel consumption in urban area was studied in Seoul along three representative routes using a test car equipped with all the instruments required for recording modes of traffic and measuring fuel consumption. Correlation with idle speed, fuel consumption and CO concentration of car in use was also measured. The average vehicle speed in Seoul was 31.4 km/h and the time spent in different modes was 23.0% in idle mode, 22.5% in acceleration mode, 32.4% in cruising mode and 22.3% in deceleration mode, respectively. Hence, traffic flow was suggested to be relatively smooth. Fuel consumption per unit distance, .phi. was closely related with trip time spent per unit distance, t, and correlation coefficient obtained from the test car was 0.925, and the relationship between .phi. and t was also obtained from the linear regression with the following equation. .phi.=42.87+0.38 t. Idle speed of vehicle in use was mostly adjusted low and cars which were over the permissible standard of CO concentration (4.5%) were 50% or more. As the idle speed decreased, the fuel consumption was decreased, while the CO concentration was increased. Therefore, the decrease of fuel consumption can not be expected with only a decrease in idle speed.

A Continuous Descent Approach(CDA) is defined as a simple, cost-effective, noise and emission abatement technique for any powered aircraft on approach. CDA also can be optimised within energy, speed and safety constraints by avoiding unnecessary flap, air brake and engine thrust. This study includes comparison on fuel consumption between Continuous Descent type and Step Down type by using flight data. In particular, we investigated fuel flow per hour, calibrated airspeed and pressure altitude for all flight time. During descent flight, the fuel consumption of Continuous Descent type was less than the fuel consumption of Step Down type.

효율적인 도로의 설계와 관리를 위해서는 도로건설의 경제성 분석이 중요하며 이를 위해서는 도로 상태별 차량별 유류소모량의 평가가 필요하다. 도로에서는 초기 건설비용, 유지보수비용, 차량운행비용, 지정체비용 등이 발생되는데, 도로의 경제성 분석을 위해서는 초기 건설비용, 유지보수비용 등과 같은 관리자비용과 차량운행비용, 지정체비용 등과 같은 이용자비용을 모두 포함한 사회적 비용이 고려되어야 한다. 이 중 차량운행비용은 교통량에 따라 그 비용이 변화되므로 차량운행비용 항목의 큰 부분을 차지하는 유류소모량 또한 교통량에 따라 변화하게 된다. 그런데 유류소모량은 차량의 주행속도 및 도로포장의 상태, 특히 평탄성에 따라 크게 변화되므로 도로의 경제성 분석을 위한 차량운행비용의 산정을 위해서는 주행차량에 대해 도로 상태에 따른 유류소모량을 평가하여 경제성 분석에 반영해야 할 필요가 있으나 아직 이를 고려하지 못하고 있는 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 운행되는 승용차에 대해서 도로 상태별 유류소모량 추정모델을 개발하였다. 우선 우리나라의 교통시설 투자평가 및 도로건설의 예비타당성 조사에서 차량운행비용 산정을 위해 사용되고 있는 주행속도와 유류소모량의 관계식을 고찰하고, 승용차를 대상으로 도로포장의 평탄성에 따른 유류소모량 변화의 관계를 실제 도로에서 실측하여 평탄성과 유류소모량 변화의 관계를 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 평탄성에 따른 유류소모량의 변화는 평탄성이 1m/km 증가하였을 경우 100km 주행시 약 $80m{\ell}$ 정도의 비율로 유류소모량이 증가하는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 도로의 설계 및 유지관리에 있어서 보다 정확한 경제성 분석을 수행하기 위해서는 도로포장의 평탄성에 따른 유류소모량 변화를 고려해야 할 필요가 있다.

Since 2020, according to the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) amended in 2016, each Administration shall transfer the annual fuel consumption of its registered ships of 5,000 gross tonnage and above to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) after verifying them. The Administration needs stacks of materials, which must not be manipulated by ship companies, including the Engine log book and also bears an administrative burden to verify them by May every year. This study considers using the Automatic Identification System (AIS), mandatory navigational equipment, as an objective and efficient tool among several verification methods. Calculating fuel consumption using a ship's speed in AIS information based on the theory of a relationship between ship speed and fuel consumption was reported in several examples of relevant literature. After pre-filtering by excluding AIS records which had speed errors from the raw data of five domestic cargo vessels, fuel consumptions calculated using Excel software were compared to actual bunker consumptions presented by ship companies. The former consumptions ranged from 96 to 123 percent of the actual bunker consumptions. The difference between two consumptions could be narrowed to within 20 percent if the fuel consumptions for boilers were deducted from the actual bunker consumption. Although further study should be carried out for more accurate calculation methods depending on the burning efficiency of the engine, the propulsion efficiency of the ship, displacement and sea conditions, this method of calculating annual fuel consumption according to the difference between two consumptions is considered to be one of the most useful tools to verify bunker consumption.

Modification of injector, oil ring tension reduction and oil pump rotor re-matching with optimization of relevant engine control parameters could drive fuel consumption reduction of HSDI diesel engine. A 5 holes injector was replaced with a 6 holes with smaller nozzle hole diameter and 1.5 k factor, and evaluated in a view of fuel economy and emission trade-offs. With introducing smaller nozzle hole diameter injector, PM(Particulate Matter) was drastically decreased for low engine load and low engine rpm. Modification of oil pump and oil ring was to reduce mechanical friction and be proved to better fuel economy. Optimization of engine operating conditions was a great help for the low fuel consumption. Influence of the engine operating parameters· including pilot quantity, pilot interval, air mass and main injection timing on fuel economy, smoke and NOx has been evaluated with 14 points extracted from NEDC(New European Driving Cycle) cycle. The fuel consumption was proved to $7\%$ improvement on an engine bench and $3.7\%$ with a vehicle.

EGR(Exhaust gas recirculation) provides an important contribution in achieving the development targets of low fuel consumption and low exhaust emission levels on gasoline engine for hybrid vehicles while allowing stoichiometric fuelling to be retained for applications using the three-way catalysts. However, the occurrence of excessive cyclic variation with high EGR normally prevents substantial fuel economy improvements from being achieved in practice. Therefore, the optimum EGR rate in gasoline engine for hybrid vehicles should be carefully determined in order to achieve low fuel consumption and low exhaust emission. In this study, 2 liters gasoline engine with E-EGR system was used to investigate the effects of EGR with optimum EGR rate on fuel economy, combustion stability, engine performance and exhaust emissions. As the engine load becomes higher, the optimum EGR rate tends to increase. The increase in engine load and reduction in engine speed make the fuel consumption better. The fuel consumption was improved by maximum 5.5% at low speed, high load operating condition. As the simulated EGR variation on a cylinder is increased, due to the increase in cyclic variation, the fuel consumption and emissions characteristics were deteriorated simultaneously. To achieve combustion stability without a penalty in fuel consumption and emissions, the cylinder-to-cylinder variations must be maintained under 10%.

In this work, new multi-recycling options of TRU nuclides using PWR fuel assemblies comprised of MOX and FCM (Fully Ceramic Micro Encapsulated) fuels are suggested and neutronically analyzed. These options do not use a fully recycling of TRU but a partial recycling where TRUs from MOX fuels are recycled while the ones from FCM fuels are not recycled due to their high consumption rate resulted from high burnup. In particular, additional external TRU feed in MOX fuels for each cycle was considered to significantly increase the TRU consumption rate and the finally selected option is to use external TRU and enriched uranium feed as a makeup for the heavy metal consumption in MOX fuels. This hybrid external feeding of TRU and enriched uranium in MOX fuel was shown to be very effective in significantly increasing TRU consumption rate, maintaining long cycle length, and achieving negative void reactivity worth during recycling.
