The purpose of this study is analysis to vehicle's fuel economy and emission gas characteristics by fuel type. The test vehicle were selected to similar weight and performance, the test vehicle was used three representative mode(CVS-75, HWFET and NEDC) in order to evaluation fuel economy and emission gas. For reference, environment pollution cost was calculated on the basis of the exhaust emissions occurred in the test in progress.

Fuel economy is an important factor in a vehicle owing to recent energy supply and environmental problems. This paper deals with fuel cell hybrid vehicles (FCHVs) and introduces a fuel economy evaluation method. The fuel economy of an FCHV depends on its power management strategy. Two rule-based power management strategies are applied to this paper and their fuel economy is evaluated based on the optimal control theory. The concept of the optimal line is also applied to this paper, which is used to compare the fuel consumption of a power management strategy to the optimal result. The two rule-based strategies are also compared to each other.

In this work, the fuel economy of a parallel hybrid electric vehicle is investigated. A vehicle control algorithm which yields operating points where operational cost of HEV is minimal is suggested. The operational cost of HEV is decided considering both the cost of fossil fuel consumed by an engine and the cost of electricity consumed by an electric motor. A procedure for obtaining the operating points of minimal fuel consumption is introduced. Simulations are carried out for 3 variations of HEV and the results are compared to the fuel economy of a conventional vehicle in order to investigate the effect of hybridization. Simulation results show that HEV with the vehicle control algorithm suggested in this work has a fuel economy 45% better than the conventional vehicle if braking energy is recuperated fully by regeneration and idling of the engine is eliminated. The vehicle modification is also investigated to obtain the target fuel economy set in PNGV program.

The vehicle label fuel economy is used as an energy management indicator nationwide. It induces technology development of automobile manufacturers and plays a role of providing information when purchasing a consumer vehicle. However, consumers who purchase a new vehicle continued to complain that the label fuel economy is different from the mandatory fuel economy rate. The domestic fuel economy measurement method is the same as the North American measurement method. The results of the two test modes (urban (FTP-75 mode), highway (HWFET mode)) are calculated in five test modes reflecting various environmental conditions and driving patterns 5-cycle correction formula is used which is equivalent to the fuel efficiency value. In this study, to solve the consumers' curiosity about the fuel economy of new vehicle, we use domestic fuel economy measurement method to measure the new car condition within 150 km of driving distance and the cumulative driving distance condition of domestic label fuel economy test vehicle. A comparative evaluation of fuel economy was carried out for a durability vehicle of $6,500{\pm}1,000km$. A result, mean value of the fuel economy of the four gasoline vehicles increased by 2.7 % in the city center mode and by 2.5 % in the highway mode in the durable vehicle compared new vehicle. And in the case of the diesel vehicle it increased by 2.5 % and 3.9 % respectively. The harmful exhaust gas emitted from the vehicle also resulted in more emissions of both gasoline and diesel vehicles in new vehicles. It is considered that the increase of the frictional force of the vehicle driving system and the lubricating oil system would have an effect on the reduction of the fuel economy of the new vehicle, and it was found that the fuel economy and the exhaust gas were improved by proper cumulative distance (domesticate) to the new vehicle.

For high fuel economy, many kinds of unit in vehicle have been developed. In steering system, as a result, HPS(Hydraulic Power Steering) system has been replaced as EHPS and EPS system. But the structures of these systems are totally different, and that causes the uncertainty of fuel economy evaluation. Therefore we undertake to research to find results and tendency of fuel economy and energy in steering system. For accurate evaluation, we modeled different types of steering systems on same vehicle model. The simulation came into action on various driving cycle. The driving condition is designed to show standby power of pump. Results show differences of fuel efficiency and energy consumption.

This study was conducted to analyze the impact of low level bio-alcohols that can be applied without modification of vehicles to improve air quality in Korea. The emissions and fuel economy of low level bio-alcohols mixed gasoline fuels of spark ignition vehicles, which are direct injection and port fuel injection, were studied in this paper. As a result of the evaluation, the particle number (PN) was reduced in all evaluation fuels compared to the sub octane gasoline without oxygen, but the correlation with the PN due to the increase in the oxygen content was not clear. In the CVS-75 mode, emitted CO tended to decrease compared to sub octane gasoline, but no significant correlation was found between NMHC, NOx and fuel economy. In addition, it was found that the aldehyde increased in the oxygenated fuel, and there was no difference in terms of the amount of aldehyde generated among a series of bio-alcohol mixed fuels.

본 연구는 천연가스를 기반으로 하는 가스연료 자동차의 연비산출방법에 대해 미국과 유럽의 기준을 조사하고 적합성을 분석하여 국내에 적합한 자동차 연비 산출방법을 도출하는데 목적이 있다. 탄소평형법으로 유도되는 연료소비율 산출은 연료의 탄소중량비와 자동차 배출가스중 탄소성분의 평형 관계식에 의해 유도된다. 미국기준은 시험가스 조성의 제한이 없지만 유럽 기준은 기준 시험가스(G20, G23)를 사용하여야 한다. 국내 도시가스를 사용하는 NGV의 경우 유럽기준을 적용하면 시험가스의 차이로 연비가 약 12% 불리하게 나오는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 연비 산출시 필요한 연료물성을 발열량으로부터 결정하는 방법을 소개하고 이러한 방법을 기반으로 국내 천연가스 자동차 연비 산출방법을 제시하였다.

디젤 엔진에서 저압 배기재순환 시스템의 적용을 통한 질소산화물 저감과 연비 향상에 관한 효과를 확인하였다. 엔진의 정상 상태 및 과도 상태에서 시험이 진행되었으며, 차량상사를 통한 NEDC 모드 테스트를 위하여 별도의 제어로직도 개발되었다. 정상 상태의 시험결과에서 저압 배기재순환 시스템은 고압 배기재순환 시스템에 비하여 질소산화물 저감 및 연비 향상에 유리함을 확인하였고, NEDC 모드 테스트 결과로부터 배출가스의 증가없이 연비를 향상시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는, 차량용 에어컨 시스템으로 구성된 벤치 장비에서의 실험을 통하여 에어컨 관련 북미 실차 연비 평가 모드 중의 하나인 SC03 모드 연비 평가의 벤치 모사 시험 가능성을 검증하였다.본 연구에 사용된 설비는 차량용 에어컨 시스템을 실차 조건처럼 구성할 수 있는 각각의 챔버로 구분되어져 있으며, 외부 환경을 재연할 수 있도록 온도와 습도, 풍속을 제어할 수 있도록 구성하였다. 지금까지 실차 환경 풍동에서 평가 되어지던 SC03 모드 연비 평가에 대하여 시스템 벤치에서 모사가 가능하도록 실차에서 가장 중요한 변수인 차속과 차량 전면 풍속에 대응하는 압축기 회전수와 응축기 전면풍속에 대한 신뢰성을 확보하였다.이를 바탕으로 다양한 토출 용량을 가지는 압축기를 가지고 에어컨 시스템 벤치 장비에서 SC03 연비 모사 실험을 수행하여, 압축기 토출량의 차이에 따른 연비의 차이가 특징 지어지는 것을 확인하였다.

This paper presents the development and validation methods of the FUTURE (FUel cycle analysis Tool for nUcleaR Energy) code, which was developed for a dynamic material flow evaluation and economic analysis of the nuclear fuel cycle. This code enables an evaluation of a nuclear material flow and its economy for diverse nuclear fuel cycles based on a predictable scenario. The most notable virtue of this FUTURE code, which was developed using C# and MICROSOFT SQL DBMS, is that a program user can design a nuclear fuel cycle process easily using a standard process on the canvas screen through a drag-and-drop method. From the user's point of view, this code is very easy to use thanks to its high flexibility. In addition, the new code also enables the maintenance of data integrity by constructing a database environment of the results of the nuclear fuel cycle analyses.
