본 연구에서는 옥탄가에 따른 연소특성 및 차량 성능에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 옥탄가 차이가 있는 두 연료를 선정하여 연소특성 및 배출가스, 연비, 가속성 실험을 수행하였다. 우선, 연소특성 실험을 위해 단기통 엔진을 사용하였으며, 시중에 유통되는 연료 중 옥탄가가 다른 두 연료를 선정하여 수행하였다. 단기통 실험은 각 연료에 맞는 점화시기 및 공연비제어를 통해 점화시기를 점차 진각 시켰을 때 나타나는 연소 특성을 살펴보았으며, 그에 따른 출력 및 배출가스, 연소압력 등을 통해 옥탄가에 의한 연소 상관성을 살펴보았다. 또한, 실제 차량을 통해 옥탄가 차이에 대한 연비 변화를 비교해 보았으며, 가속성 시험을 통해 고성능 요구 구간에 대한 옥탄가의 영향성을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 점화시기를 진각시킴에 따라 높은 옥탄가의 연료가 다소 안정된 연소특성을 보여주었으며, 가속성, 출력시험에서는 약간의 증가를 보였다. 그러나 두 연료 모두 도심 및 고속도로를 모사한 현행 연비모드에서 큰 차이를 보이지 않음에 따라 현재 판매되고 있는 차량의 운행 조건에서는 고옥탄가 연료가 연비에 미치는 영향은 미미한 것으로 나타났다.

Ridge regression is compared with multiple linear regression (MLR) for determination of Research Octane Number (RON) when the baseline and signal-to-noise ratio are varied. MLR analysis of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic data usually encounters a collinearity problem, which adversely affects long-term prediction performance. The collinearity problem can be eliminated or greatly improved by using ridge regression, which is a biased estimation method. To evaluate the robustness of each calibration, the calibration models developed by both calibration methods were used to predict RONs of gasoline spectra in which the baseline and signal-to-noise ratio were varied. The prediction results of a ridge calibration model showed more stable prediction performance as compared to that of MLR, especially when the spectral baselines were varied. . In conclusion, ridge regression is shown to be a viable method for calibration of RON with the NIR data when only a few wavelengths are available such as hand-carry device using a few diodes.

Knock phenomenon is an abnormal combustion originated from autoignition of unburned gas in the end-gas region during the later stage of combustion process and it accompanys a high pitched metallic noise. Engine Knock is accompanied with a vibration of engine cylinder and when it is severe, it can cause major engine demage. Engine Knock is characterized in terms of knock crank angle, knock pressure, pressure jump and knock intensity. In this study, a 4-cylinder spark ignition engine was used for experiment and eighty consecutive cycles were analyzed statistically. The purpose of this study is to characterize spark ignition engine knock as a function of ignition timing and fuel research octane number. The result of this study can be summerized as follows. Knock occurrence angle approached TDC as ignition timing is advanced. Pressure and knock intensity gradually increased as spark timing is advanced. Mean knock occurence angle gradually approached TDC as fuel research octane number is decreased for identical spark timing. Knock intensity increased linearly as RON is decreased.

비이온 계면활성제 $C_{12}E_8$ 수용액의 탄화수소 오일에 대한 가용화도(equilibrium solubilization capacity)를 $30^{\circ}C$에서 기체 크로마토그래피(GC)를 이용하여 측정하였다. 탄화수소 오일의 가용화도를 실험에 사용한 계면활성제의 농도로 나눈 값으로 표시한 molar solubilization ratio(MSR)는 순수한 단일 성분의 탄화수소 오일 경우, 탄화수소 오일의 탄소수(ACN)가 증가함에 따라 거의 선형적으로 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 한편 탄화수소 오일의 이성분 시스템은 사용한 두 탄화수소 오일의 탄소수(alkane carbon number, ACN) 차이에 따라 선택적 가용화 혹은 비선택적 가용화 경향을 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 가용화도 실험을 수행한 n-octane/n-nonane과 n-nonane/n-decane 혼합물 시스템의 경우, 비선택적 (non-selective) 가용화 경향을 나타내었으며, 반면에 n-octane/n-decane 혼합물 시스템의 경우에는 선택적(selective) 가용화 경향을 따르는 것을 GC 분석 결과로부터 확인할 수 있었다.

리서취법과 모터법(RON과 MON)에 의한 가솔린 옥탄가는 가솔린의 연료로서의 성능에 관한 품질의 동력학적 측정값이다. 가솔린 옥탄가(RON과 MON)를 측정하기 위한 방법으로는 ASTM 표준엔진 시험방법(RON:ASTM D-2699, MON:ASTM D-2700)이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 이 방법은 재현성, 반복성 등이 매우 낮아서 오래 전부터 비판되어지고 있다. 또한 이 방법에 의한 측정시 그에 따른 비용 및 가동시간 등으로 인하여 비엔진 측정방법(기체 크로마토그래피법, 핵자기공명 분광법 등)에 대한 연구가 진행되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 $^{13}C-NMR$ 분광법을 이용하여 가솔린의 탄소 유형별 구조적 조성을 결정한 후 높은 정확도로 옥탄가(RON과 MON)를 예측하였다 그리고 옥탄가에 대한 가솔린의 분자구조적 조성의 영향에 관하여 고찰하였다.

When bioethanol and water are mixed at a proper ratio, phase separation can occur because of the immiscibility of biobutanol with water. Phase separation in bioethanol blends fuels is a major problem for gasoline vehicle users due to effect of octane number and component corrosion. Thus, in this study, the phase separation of bioethanol was examined effect of bioethanol blends (E3 (3 vo.% bioethanol in gasoline), E5 and E10) in presence of water. The effect were evaluated behavior with phase separation test, simulation test of fuel tank in gas station according to water addition volume and it was investigated change of water content, bioethanol content and octane number for gasoline phase in bioethanol blends (E3, E5 and E10) every 1 week after water addition. The E3 occurred phase separation more easily than the E5 and E10 in small water contents because solubility of water on ethanol content difference in gasoline-ethanol. It was kept a initial level of water content, bioethanol content, and octane number by repeated sample replacing in simulation test of fuel tank.

Controlled Auto-ignition (CAI) combustion processes can be broadly divided between a CAI process that is applied to four-cycle engines and a CAI process that is applied to two-cycle engines. The former process is generally referred to as Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) combustion and the later process as Active Thermo-Atmosphere Combustion (ATAC) The region of stable engine operation differs greatly between these two processes, and it is thought that the elucidation of their differences and similarities could provide useful information for expanding the operation region of HCCI combustion. In this research, the same two-cycle engine was operated under both the ATAC and HCCI combustion processes to compare their respective combustion characteristics. The results indicated that the ignition timing was less likely to change in the ATAC process in relation to changes in the fuel octane number than it was in the HCCI combustion process.

The HCCI engines have been known with high efficiency and low pollution and can be actualized as the new internal combustion engines. However, As for(??) the ignition and combustion depend strongly on the oxidation reaction of the fuel, so it is difficult to control auto-ignition timing and combustion duration. Purpose of this paper is creating the database for development of multi-dimensional simulation and investigating the influence of different molecular structure. In this research, the effect of n-heptane mole ratio in fuel (XnH) on the ignition delay from homogeneous charge compression ignition(HCCI) has been investigated experimentally. By varying the XnH, it was possible to ascertain whether or not XnH is the main resource of ignition delay. Additionally, the information on equivalence ratio for varying XnH was obtained. The tests were performed on a RCM (Rapid Compression Machine) fueled with n-heptane and iso-octane. The results showed that decreasing XnH (100, 30, 20, 10,0), the ignition delays of low temperature reaction (tL) and high temperature reaction (tH) is longer. And the temperature of reaction increases by about 30K. n-heptane partial equivalence ratio (fnH) affect on tL.and TL. When ${\phi}$nH was increased as a certain value, tL was decreased and TL was increased.

Natural gas is one of clean fuels that can replace petroleum-based fuels, because it has low exhaust emission, comparatively high thermal efficiency and abundant deposits. In this addition, owing to high octane number and wide lean flammability limit, it has a strong point to increase the compression ratio. For this reason, the research is being actively executed to increase the generating power and thermal efficiency of the engine by raising the compression ratio through utilization of high octane number relevant to development of CNG engine. In this study, 0.63L single cylinder diesel engine has been used to alter easily compression ratio. Compression ratio has gotten under control by modifying the thickness of gasket between cylinder head and block without major structural modifications. As the result, as compression ratio has increased, generating power and fuel consumption ratio have been improved. As for emission concentration, as compression ratio has increased, THC concentration has been decreased while exhause concentration of NOx increased. In case compression ratio has excessively increased, brake output decrease and cycle variation have been increased. As the result acquired by analyzing brake output, fuel consumption ratio, cycle variation and exhaust, the engine driving condition has acquired $\varepsilon=13$ as the optimal compression ratio in this study.
