수소 토치 점화 시스템은 순수한 알루미늄을 이용하여 점화가 가능하고 점화 방법이 간단해 알루미늄 연소 시스템으로 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 수소 토치 점화 시스템은 수소 공급을 위해 고압의 수소탱크가 필요해 무게가 무거워지는 단점이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 고체 화학수소화물인 $NaBH_4$를 이용한 수소 점화 시스템을 설계하였다. $NaBH_4$는 약 $500^{\circ}C$에서 열분해가 시작되고 수소가 발생한다. $NaBH_4$ 열분해 특성에 영향을 미치는 변인들을 분석하고, $NaBH_4$ 기반 수소 점화 시스템을 이용해 알루미늄 연소 실험을 수행하여 실제 시스템 적용 가능성에 대해 검증 하였다.

Hydrogen-dimethy ether (DME) and hydrogen-diesel compression ignition engine combustion were investigated and compared each other in a single cylinder compression ignition engine. Hydrogen and DME were used as low carbon alternative fuels to reduce green house gases and pollutant. Hydrogen was injected at the intake manifold with an injection pressure of 0.5 MPa at fixed injection timing, $-210^{\circ}CA$ aTDC. DME and diesel were injected directly into the cylinder through the common-rail injection system at injection pressure of 30 MPa. DME and diesel inejction timing was varied to find the optimum CI combustion to reduce CO, HC and NOx emissions. When DME was injected early, CO and HC emissions were high while NOx emission was low. Fuel consumption, heat release rate, and exhaust emissions were measured to analyze each combustion characteristics of each ignition promoter. Fuel consumption was decreased when diesel was used as an ignition promoter. This is due to the lower volatility of diesel which created more stratified charge than DME.

The aim of this paper is controlling ignition timing and load in homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion with low cetane number fuel, hydrogen. Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion is an advanced combustion technology that achieves higher thermal efficiency and lower $NO_x$ emissions than that of conventional combustion system. Dimethyl ether (DME), which has been researched widely as the most attractive alternative fuel of diesel, is attractive for HCCI combustion because of the easy evaporation. In this study, the single cylinder DME engine operated with a direct injection system has been used to investigate combustion processes and emissions of DME HCCI with a premixed hydrogen supply. The experiment was carried out under various engine speed and fraction rates of hydrogen. As a result, the increase of fraction rates of hydrogen retard the DME ignition timing and eliminated the knocking during high engine speed condition. IMEP was increased with increase of fraction rates of hydrogen by 30%. 40% of the fraction rates of hydrogen resulted in misfiring. The $NO_x$ emission was reduced by increasing the fraction rates of hydrogen, but HC emission was increased.

Ignition of hydrogen and oxygen in the "third limit" is theoretically investigated in the stagnation point flow with activation energy asymptotics. With the steady-state approximations of H, OH, O and HO$_2$, a two-step reduced kinetic mechanism is derived for the regime lower than the crossover temperature T$_{c}$ at which the rates of production and consumption of all radicals are equal. Appropriate scaling of Damkohler number successfully provides the explicit relationship between pressure, temperature and strain rate at ignition. It is shown that, compared with those for the counterflow, ignition temperatures for the stagnation point flow are considerably increased with increasing the system pressure. This is because ignition in the "third limit" is characterized by the production of reduction of $H_2O$$_2$, which is reduced by wall effect. Strain rate substantially affects ignition temperature because key reaction rates of $H_2O$$_2$ are comparably with its transport rate, while the mixture temperature and the hydrogen composition do not significantly affect ignition temperature.e.

본 연구에서는 RBCC (Rocket Based Combined Cycle)엔진이나 기존 램제트 추진기관의 초기 추력 제공에 과산화수소 가스발생기를 이용하는 새로운 추진시스템을 제안하였고, 기초 연구 수행으로서 촉매 분해된 과산화수소 제트에 케로신을 분사하여 자연발화 및 연소 특성을 연구하였다. 과산화수소는 촉매 베드를 통하여 분해된 후 축소노즐을 통해 연소실로 분사됐으며 이 제트에 인젝터를 통하여 수직으로 케로신을 액상으로 분무하였다. 연소실내에서의 온도와 압력을 측정하여 점화를 확인하고 자연발화 특성을 조사하였다. 400°C의 연소실 온도와 연료와 산화제 혼합비 0.6이상에서 자연발화와 안정적인 연소가 가능하였다. 이 결과를 통하여 램제트의 새로운 초기 가속장치의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Hydrogen-dimethy ether(DME) partially premixed compression ignition(PCCI) engine combustion was investigated in a single cylinder compression ignition engine. Hydrogen and DME were used as low carbon alternative fuels to reduce green house gases and pollutant. Hydrogen was injected at the intake manifold with an injection pressure of 0.5 MPa at fixed injection timing, $-210^{\circ}CA$ aTDC. DME was injected directly into the cylinder through the common-rail injection system at injection pressure of 30 MPa. DME inejction timing was varied to find the optimum PCCI combustion to reduce CO, HC and NOx emissions. When DME was injected early, CO and HC emissions were high while NOx emission was low. As the DME injection was retarded, the CO and HC emissions were decreased due to high combustion efficiency. NOx emissions were increased due to the high in-cylinder temperature. When DME were injected at $-30^{\circ}CA$ aTDC, reduction of HC, CO and NOx emissions was possible with high value of IMEP.

수소는 동일한 공연비(AF ratio, Air-to-fuel ratio)에서 가솔린에 비해 점화에너지가 현격히 낮기 때문에, 희박한 혼합기 조건에서도 안정적으로 연소할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있어 연소를 기반으로하는 내연기관에도 적용이 가능하다. 그러나 일부 연소조건에서 역화(Back-fire) 혹은 조기 점화(Pre-ignition)와 같은 이상 연소가 발생하기 쉬운 문제를 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 엔진의 흡기(Intake gas mixture)를 구성하는 신기(Fresh air)와 수소 연료를 각각 냉각하여 공급함으로써, 역화를 최소화하여 최고 출력을 향상하는 연구를 진행하였다. 2.4 L급 전기점화(SI, Spark-ignition)엔진이 사용되었으며 수소는 포트분사 방식(PFI, Port Fuel Injection)으로 공급하였다. 신기의 온도는 터보차저가 장착된 상황에서 인터쿨러(Intercooler)를 이용하여 제어하였으며, 수소의 냉각은 칠러의 냉매와 열교환기를 통하여 직접 냉각 후 공급하였다. 그 결과 신기의 온도를 10~20 ℃가량 냉각시킬 경우 최고출력이 약 6.5~8.6 % 가량 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 수소를 -6 ℃까지 냉각하여 공급할 경우 마찬가지로 약 7.7 % 가량의 최고 출력을 향상할 수 있었다.

Due to the rapid spread and low minimum ignition energy of hydrogen, rupture is highly likely to cause fire, explosion and major accidents. The self-ignition of high-pressure hydrogen is highly likely to ignite immediately when it leaks from an open space, resulting in jet fire. Results of the diffusion and leakage simulation show that jet effect occurs from the leakage source to a certain distance. And at the end of location, the vapor cloud explosion can be occurred due to the formation of hydrogen vapor clouds by built-up. In the result, it is important that depending on the time of ignition, a jet fire or a vapor cloud explosion may occur. Therefore, it is necessary to take into account jet effect by location of leakage source and establish a damage minimizing plan for the possible jet fire or vapor cloud explosion. And it is required to any kind of measurements such as an interlock system to prevent hydrogen leakage or minimize the amount of leakage when detecting leakage of gas.

본 연구는 직류 저항회로의 개폐불꽃에 의한 폭발성 가스의 점화한계를 실험적으로 고찰하였다. 실험은 IEC형 불꽃점화 시험장치의 폭발용기에 폭발성 가스(메탄-공기 프로판-공기, 에틸렌-공기, 수소-공기)를 각각 넣고 텅스텐 전극과 카드뮴 전극사이에서 발생하는 3,200회의 개폐불꽃에 의한 점화유무를 확인하므로서 점화한계를 구하였다. 또한 실험장치의 점화감도교정을 실험한 후에 실시하므로서 실험의 정확성을 기하였다. 실험결과 최소 점화 전류값을 갖는 최소점화한계농도는 메탄-공기 8.3 [$Vol\%$], 프로판-공기 5.25[$Vol\%$], 에틸렌-공기 7.8[$Vol\%$], 수소-공기 21[$Vol\%$]로서 기존의 실험결과와 유사한 결과를 나타내었다. 또한 최소점화한계농도에서 전압과 최소점화잔류와의 관계를 구한 결과 최소점화한계는 메탄, 프로판, 에틸렌, 수소가스의 순서로 낮아졌고 점화전류의 크기는 전원전압의 크기와 반비례하고, 전극의 과열현상으로 인하여 전압 약 20(V)이하에서는 최소점화전류가 2(A)를 넘으면서 심화한계곡선이 급격히 상승한다는 것 등을 알 수 있었다.

Because of low flame ion density in hydrogen-air mixture, many residual electric energy could be existed in the ignition system of hydrogen engine, If these residual energy discharged abnormally during intake stroke, it may be the cause of backfire occurrence which is serious problem in development of hydrogen fueled engine but unsolved in spite of many concerned research on it. In this study, the possibility of backfire occurrence by abnormal electric discharge and countermeasure of that were investigated by using the experimental single cylinder hydrogen fueled engine with two types of ignition system. The results show that abnormal electric discharge appeared in low load with low ion density and then results in back fire occurrence, It is also seen that countermeasure method installing larger earth resistance in high tension code is effective to control abnormal electric discharge.
