Cylinder pressure level is defined the value of sound pressure level derived from relations of pressure and frequency which are obtained Fourier series expansion of cylinder pressure. CPL is alone in general use in combustion analysis without regarding attenuation coefficient determined by engine structure because it is almost constant in various kinds of engines. Combustion pressure fluctuation and influence of CPL was investigated in this paper using Wiebe combustion function superposition th obtain the effect of premixed and diffusive combustion. The results are as follow. (1) Influence of combustion maximum pressure(P$\sub$max/) on CPL is correspond with total energy per cycle well. (2) P$\sub$max/, .DELTA.P$\sub$max/, (dp/d.theta.)$\sub$max/ and (d$\^$2/p/d.theta.$\^$2/)$\sub$max/ are very effective on CPL in the range of low frequency, mid-low frequency, mid-high frequency and high frequency respectively.

Natural gas for marine diesel engine is considered as an important and clean source of energy because of simultaneously reducing the emission of NOx, SOx and GHG. Especially with a appearance of shale gas, the using of natural gas has been investigated aggressively and expected to expand rapidly. By the reports, gas engine and diesel engine were both in a similar performance in the power aspect, and the SFOC of gas engine was shown a little better than that of diesel engine. But the characteristics of exhaust gas emission were different according to various combustion technologies. And with lean burn technology, the emission of NOx could be reduced to 85% lower than that of diesel engine. In this paper, it was described that a simulation program has been developed to predict NOx emission. The developed program is adopted two-zone model and Wiebe function for combustion in cylinder. The effects of premixed and diffusive combustion could be simulated by using the excess air ratio as input data. And it was confirmed that the results of simulation were agreed with the general trends of exhaust gas emission according to various combustion conditions such as lean burn, premixed and diffusive combustion.
