This study proposes a new stratified charge system for low emission and ultra lean burn. In order to examine combustion characteristics of the new system, sparkplug with a hole at positive pole and a common CNG injector for injecting fuel were used in this study as injector-type spark plug. The new stratified charge system injects fuel of extremely small quantities and ignites mixture around sparkplug gap. Also, the system was fitted in a visualized constant volume chamber. Then, for analysis of the combustion characteristics, we examined combustion pressure, lean inflammable limit, and visualized combustion flame according to equivalence ratio by comparison with homogeneous charge (HC) method and the new stratified charge (SC) method. As results of this study, in the case of using this system, the propagation speed of initial flame was increased and total combustion period was reduced in the ultra lean burn in the same equivalence ratio. These phenomena occurred clearly under the conditions of lean equivalence ratio. Furthermore, the lean inflammable limit of mixture was extended by using the injector-type spark plug.

The fuel of light water reactor is used for several years under high temperature and pressure, so it needs to be clad with high corrosion resistance material. The cladding materials must have the characteristics of low absorption of a neutron and high corrosion resistance. Zircaloy-2 in Boiling Water Reactor, Zircaloy-4 in Pressurized Water Reactor have been used as cladding materials and Zirlo has been developed as the material for preventing the corrosion. If the fracture of the cladding tube occurs during operation, it will cause the economic loss to shut down and replace the system. So it is needed to evaluate the integrity of the cladding materials. In this paper, the tensile characteristics of the cladding materials were investigated for the basic research of fracture characteristics. Also the residual stress was analyzed to compare the tube type(original type) specimen and the flattened type specimen.

저탄소 친환경 대체 에너지의 한 분야인 수소에너지는 화석연료의 개질 및 물의 전기분해 등 다양한 방법을 통해 얻어진다. 수소를 연료로 사용하는 연료전지인 PEMFC용 1kW급 평판형 수소생산시스템을 자체 개발하였다. FEMFC는 CO에 의한 오염에 민감하므로 공급되는 개질가스 중에 CO 농도는 10ppm 이하로 제거되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 실험조건에서 $H_2$ 및 CO의 농도를 측정하여 최적의 운전조건을 확립하였다. 결과적으로 A/F ratio ${\alpha}=1.3$, STR temperature 1023K, S/C ratio 3, and $PrOx1{\cdot}2$ 30cc/min에서 최적임을 확인하였다. 또한 PrOx 2단이 CO 농도를 줄이는데 더욱 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

캠샤프트의 구동력을 활용한 기계식 연료펌프 시스템을 대체할 솔레노이드 격막 연료펌프는 최근 각광받고 있는 고효율 그린카 부품 중 하나이다. 하지만 솔레노이드 격막 연료펌프의 경우 왕복운동에 필요한 자속을 오직 솔레노이드에 의존하므로 전력소비가 비교적 큰 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전력소모를 최소화 하기 위하여 영구자석형 VCA 연료펌프 시스템을 제안한다. 또한 상용전자기해석소프트웨어인 MAXWELL을 활용하여 유한요소 해석을 통해 기존의 솔레노이드 격막 펌프와의 전력소모 및 동적 성능을 비교 분석한다.

In this study, the operation characteristics of the internal reforming type molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) were studied using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis according to the steam to carbon ratio (S/C ratio), operating temperature, and gas utilization. From the simulation results, the distribution of gas composition due to the electrochemical reaction and the reforming reaction was predicted. The internal reforming type showed a lower temperature difference than the external reforming type MCFC. As the operating temperature decreased, less hydrogen was produced and the performance of the fuel cell also decreased. As the gas utilization rate decreased, more gas was injected into the same reaction area, and thus the performance of the fuel cell increased.

According to the propagation of fuel cell system, the importance of that system efficiency is being magnified. Thus, the efficiency improvement of reformer which is the important factor of fuel cell system will be required. This study has been experimentally performed to evaluated the performance of plate type STR reactor. At first, we changed fuel flow rate (2, 3 and 4 l/min) in burner, and then we measured a proportion of hydrogen in produced gas through the STR reactor by G.C for evaluating the performance of plate type STR reactor in various fuel supply conditions. And we changed S/C ratio (2 and 4) and measured a proportion of hydrogen in produced gas through the STR reactor. As a results, condition at fuel flow rate 2 and 3 l/min could not be supplied amount of heat for STR sufficiently. Condition at fuel flow rate 4 l/min could supplied a heat excessively. And condition at S/C ratio 2, reaction occurred insufficiency. But condition at S/C ratio 4 was excess. From above, we found the optimum conditions that were fuel rate 3.5 l/min and S/C ratio 3.

본 연구는 TMED 방식 병렬형 하이브리드 차량을 이용하여 회생제동 회수율 및 연비 특성 실험에 대한 것이다. 회생제동 기술은 하이브리드 차량의 에너지 효율 향상을 위해 필수적인 기술로 판단되어 연구를 수행하였다. 따라서 병렬형 하이브리드 차량과 Eddy Current 방식의 차대동력계를 통해 IM240 모드 실험 시 초기 SOC 상태, 주행 모드 특성, 운전자의 운전특성에 따른 연비 특성을 회생 제동 측면에서 전류 특성 및 전류수지에 대한 비교 분석을 수행하였다. 본 연구결과, 초기 SOC 상태가 낮을수록 하이브리드 차량의 엔진 작동 시간이 증가 하고 에너지 효율이 낮아지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 주행 모드 특성, 운전자의 운전 특성에 따른 연비 특성 실험 결과 평균 연비 차이는 크게 나지 않았지만, 최종 SOC 상태에 따라서 모드 종료 후 엔진 작동 유무의 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The performance of a direct-injection type diesel engine often depends on the strength of swirl or squish, shape of combustion chamber, the number of nozzle holes, etc. This is of course because the combustion in the cylinder was affected by the mixture formation process. In this paper, combustion process of biodiesel fuel was studied by employing the piston which has several grooves with inclined plane on the piston crown to generate swirl during the compression stroke in the cylinder in order to improve the atomization of high viscosity fuel such as biodiesel fuel and toroidal type piston generally used in high speed diesel engine. To take a photograph of flame, single cylinder, four stroke diesel engine was remodeled into two stroke visible engine and high speed video camera was used. The results obtained are summarized as follows; (1) In the case of toroidal piston, when biodiesel fuel was supplied to plunger type injection system which has very low injection pressure as compared with common-rail injection system, the flame propagation speed was slowed and the maximum combustion pressure became lower. These phenomena became further aggravated as the fuel viscosity gets higher. (2) In the case of swirl groove piston, early stage of combustion such as rapid ignition timing and flame propagation was activated by intensifying the air flow in the cylinder. (3) Combustion process of biodiesel fuel was improved by the reason mentioned in paragraph (2) above. Consequently, the swirl grooves would also function to improve the combustion of high viscosity fuel.

A two-stroke Schnurle-type gasoline engine was modified to enable compression-ignition in both the port fuel injection and the in-cylinder direct injection. Using the engine, examinations of compression-ignition operation and engine performance tests were carried out. The amount of the residual gas and the in-cylinder mixture conditions were controlled by varying the valve angle rate of the exhaust valve (VAR) and the injection timing for direct injection conditions. It was found that the direct injection system is superior to the port injection system in terms of exhaust gas emissions and thermal efficiency, and that almost the same operational region of compression-ignition at medium speeds and loads was attained. Some interesting combustion characteristics, such as a shorter combustion period in higher engine speed conditions, and factors for the onset of compression-ignition were also examined.
