Engine-out HC emissions were investigated during cold and hot start. The tests were conducted according to engine cooling temperatures which were controlled by simulated coolant temperatures of cold and hot start, on a 1.5L, 4-cylinder, 16 valve, multipoint-port-fuel-injection gasoline engine. Real time engine-out HC emissions were measured at a exhaust port and cylinder head using Fast Response Flame Ionization Detector(FRFID). Unburned hydrocarbons emitted at the cold coolant temperature were much higher than those of the hot coolant temperatures. And the main source of the high HC emission was confirmed as misfire at cold coolant temperature. In addition, the effect of intake valve timing on engine-out HC emissions was investigated. The results obtained indicate that optimized intake phasing provides the potential for start-up engine-out HC emissions reduction.

An analytic strategy to control the variable valve actuation applied to two intake valves (flow port intake valve and swirl port intake valve) was performed in this study. we considered the variation in phasing of intake valve profiles by using the Cam-in-Cam technology. The analytic model was implemented in the GT-Power simulation program and analyzed the result of regulated emissions such as, NOx and Soot, especially with IMEP characteristics. Namely, we meticulously investigated the sources of having effect on the amount of NOx and soot formation under the test conditions with retard timing of both flow port and swirl port intake valves for decreasing the opening duration by 35CAD. Also, we analyzed the effect of incylinder pressure and temperature with NOx variations and in-cylinder pressure and temperature on NOx variations and normalized turbulent intensity. Through this analysis, some useful results on the combustion and flow characteristics of the swirl port and flow port control of the intake valve were obtained by this study.

The main purpose of the study is to investigate the ideal manner and ratio to inject gasoline and DME simultaneously into intake port, and moreover to confirm the characteristics of combustion and emission of engine. Experimental conditions are 1200 rpm, compression ratio 8.5, intake air temperature (383 K). Internal cylinder pressure was collected to confirm the characteristics of combustion in order to calculate the heat release rate in the cylinder. In addition, HORIBA (MEXA 7100) which was possible analyzing emissions (NOx, CO, HC) was used. Vanguard gasoline engine (23HP386447) was used in this experiment. The result show that fuel design (DME-Gasoline) leads to the decrease of low temperature heat release, which is a benefit for higher-load on the HCCI engine. Also, IMEP and the indicated thermal efficiency increase with combustion-phasing retard, and these observations can be explained by considering the control of low temperature oxidation of DME.

An ammonia fuel system is developed and applied to both a spark ignition engine and a compression ignition engine to use ammonia as primary fuel in this study. Ammonia is injected separately into the intake manifold in liquid phase while gasoline or diesel is also injected as secondary fuel. As ammonia burns 1/6 time slower than gasoline or diesel, the spark or diesel injection timing is needed to be advanced to have better combustion phasing. The test engine showed quite high variation in the power output with large amount of ammonia. The final goal of the study is to implement a methodology to ignite ammonia-air mixture and have complete combustion without any use of the conventional fuels.

The residual gas in an spark-ignition engine is one of important factors on emissions and performance such as combustion stability. With high residual gas fractions, flame speed and maximum combustion temperature are decreased and these are deeply related with combustion stability especially at idle and NOx emission at relatively high engine load. Therefore, there is a need to characterize the residual gas fraction as a function of the engine operating load. Therefore, there is a need to characterize the residual gas fraction as a function of the engine operating parameters. In the present study, the quantitative measurement technique of residual gas fraction was studied by using Fast Response Flame Ionization Detector(FRFID). The measuring technique and model for estimation of residual gas fraction were reported in this paper. By the assuming that the raw signal from FRFID saturates with the same slope for firing and misfiring cycle, in-cylinder hydrocarbon(HC) concentration can be estimated. Residual gas fraction can be obtained from the in-cylinder HC concentration measured at firing and motoring condition. The developed measurement and calibration procedure were applied to the limited engine operating and design condition such as intake manifold pressure and valve overlap. The results show relevant trends by comparing those from previous studies.

In 2009, the world dairy industry had the most impressive experience throughout all the experiences it had. The milk price in major regions fell to their lowest level for decades. Including Korea, the world economy is obviously slowing. The nations' export plunged due to the global economic recession, in result reduced industrial output and domestic demand. In Korea, the intake of liquid milk slightly decreased from 45 kg per capita in 2005 to 44.3 kg per capita in 2008. However, production and consumption of milk increased fast in China and India. According to 2008 statistics, total milk volume of the world trade reached 42 million tonnes and the major exporters of dairy products were EU, New Zealand, USA and Autralia. The tropical countries has traditionally consumed buffalo milk. The production of buffalo milk is increasing faster than cow milk. IDF expected that EU milk production would recover the medium term displaying a gradual growth over the milk quotas phasing-out period, while constantly remaining below the quota level.

지구온난화와 화석연료 고갈 문제의 해결을 위하여 대체 연료 개발에 많은 노력을 하고 있다. 암모니아(NH3)는 수소와 마찬가지로 탄소를 포함하고 있지 않으면서 대표적인 수소 캐리어이다. 또한, 상온에서 0.6 MPa 정도의 압력을 가하면 액상을 유지할 수 있어 LPG 충전인프라를 그대로 사용가능한 장점이 있다. 본 연구는 암모니아를 가솔린과 함께 혼소시켰으며, 혼소 비율에 따른 엔진 성능을 비교하였다. 암모니아와 가솔린의 혼소를 위하여 가솔린 인젝터와 암모니아용 인젝터를 각각 사용하였으며, 암모니아는 액상으로 분사시켰다. 암모니아-가솔린 혼소 엔진의 최대 장점은 가솔린 대체량에 비례하여 이산화탄소 배출량을 크 게 감소시킬 수 있다는 것이다. 하지만 암모니아-가솔린 혼소율에 따라 연소가 불안정한 구간이 있었으며, 암모니아 혼소 비율 0.7 이상에서는 연소 불안정성 증가로 인해 토크와 NOx 배출량이 감소하고, THC 배출량이 급증하였다.
