In this paper, the combustion improvement effects of alcohol-diesel oil blend fuel were investigated in a visualization engine. As a result of experiment, it was found out that the combustion chamber of deep dish type and re-entrant type at the same operation condition. However, when the con-tent of alcohol exceeded 10% of total fuel delivery, the combustion of alcohol-diesel oil blend fuel was worse than that of diesel oil. The maximum blend quantity of ethanol which is not ignited in the re-entrant type combustion chamber was estimated at approximately 40% of total fuel delivery. So, it is necessary to blend appropriate quantity of a volatility fuel such as alcohol in order to improve combustion.

The generation of waste cable has been continuously increased as a production of electrical and communication media are extended. The current recovery methods, such as mechanical peeling, incineration, solvent extraction and pyrolysis, seems inadequate because they are either hard to apply in some cases or environmentally unacceptable. It has been shown that copper can be effectively separated from the jelly filled type cables using a soybean oil treatment method. As a result, jelly compound is vanished from the wire by soybean oil bath and waste wires are separated copper and PE by the mechanical chipper. This is a more environmentally friendly method than burning, and considerably faster than Stripping.

The fuels of water-in-oil emulsion have a potential of reducing PM(Particulate Matter) and NOx emissions, and increassing combustion efficiency in the furnaces and the burners. For making the most of the beneficial of the secondary atomization due to the microexplosion, the water droplets distributed in the oil must have the optimal sizes. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the water droplet size distribution characteristics of the different types of the static mixers. For analysing the size distribution characteristics efficiently, image analysis system was constructed and an appropriate image processing algorithm was developed. Two kinds of static mixers: Kenics type and RF type, were tested. As a results, RF type static mixer shows a better characteristics in the mean drop sizes, particularly in the condition of high water content.

Sealing an oil-air mixture plays important roles to have an enhanced lubrication for high speed spindle. High speed spindles require non-contact type sealing mechanism. In this study, an optimum seal design to minimize leakage is concerned in the aspect of flow control. This paper categorizes geometries of mostly used non-contact type seals and analyzes each leakage characteristics to minimize a leakage on sealing area. Effect of minimum clearance and its position are considered according to variation of detail geometry. The estimation of non-leaking property is determined by amount of pressure drop in the leakage path assuming constant leakage flow. To simulate an oil jet or oil mist type high speed spindle lubrication, the working fluid is regarded as two phases that are mixed flow of oil phase and air phase. Both of the turbulence and the compressible flow model were introduced in CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis. Design parameters has been induced to minimize leakage in limited space, and a methodological study on geometrical optimization has been conducted.

Generally we have difficulty in removing oil using mechanical devices because recovery rate and recovery efficiency decrease remarkably when operating in thin oil films or in oils of very high viscosity In the Present study a series of experiments were carried out to study the effect of operating conditions on the rate of recovery for the spilled oil using a drum type skimmer. For each set of experiments depth of immersion, oil film thickness and the circumferential speeds were varied systematically to find the effects on the recovery rate. The results shows that recovery rate is dependent on the contact angle for the depth of immersion and the highest rate of oil recovery shows in the case of a contact angle of 45°(h/d=0.15). For the removal of spilled oil the optimal circumferential speed can be found as the critical value to reach the saturated recovery rate for a given oil film thickness and depth of immersion. Even in thin oil thickness we have enough recovery rate and recovery efficiency within critical circumferential speed this way.

This paper presents the test results of small dipstick-gage-type engine-oil-deterioration-detection sensor. The measured sensor signal characteristics for the capacitance and temperature are analyzed. The engine oil deterioration condition correlates with the electrical property of the dielectric constant that comprised with physical properties such as TAN (Total Acid Number), TBN (Total Base Number) and viscosity. Several problems encontered during the test of the sensor system are improved. The results of vehicle tests show that the capacitance signal is stable after the engine stops. Therefore, the sensor should start measuring the parameters for monitoring the engine oil condition after the engine stops. The engine is considered to be in a stopped state if the difference between the maximum and minimum values of the oil capacitance measured every 1 min is below 0.02 pF. The key test results in this paper will help in the development of an engine oil change warning algorithm.

In this paper, we introduce a roots method that uses the roots inside the unit circle of the associated characteristics equation to evaluate the steady-state system-length distribution at three epochs (pre-arrival, arbitrary, and post-departure) and sojourn-time distribution in GI/PH/1 queueing model. It is very important for an air base to inspect airplane oil because low-quality oil leads to drop or breakdown of an airplane. Since airplane oil inspection is composed of several inspection steps, it sometimes causes train congestion and delay of inventory replenishments. We analyzed interarrival time and inspection (service) time of oil supply from the actual data which is given from one of the ROKAF's (Republic of Korea Air Force) bases. We found that interarrival time of oil follows a normal distribution with a small deviation, and the service time follows phase-type distribution, which was first introduced by Neuts to deal with the shortfalls of exponential distributions. Finally, we applied the GI/PH/1 queueing model to the oil train congestion problem and analyzed the distributions of the number of customers (oil trains) in the queue and their mean sojourn-time using the roots method suggested by Chaudhry for the model GI/C-MSP/1.

A flow characteristics of automotive oil pump of gerotor type has been investigated numerically. For the simulation of gerotor that have different rotating velocity at inner rotor and outer rotor, node expansion and contraction method was adopted. ASI (Arbitrary Sliding Interfaces) method was also applied at interface between rotating gerotor and stationary volute. The present results showed good agreement with the experimental data.

Recently, CNC lathe is in need of higher speed for precision works. So more intensive and compact heat exchanger is necessary to cool down the heat in short time from drills and works during high speed working. In this study, to increase heat transfer coefficient per unit volume, inner groove tube is designed and compact oil cooler, 57% volume of conventional type, is manufactured. The heat transfer performance is experimented and is compared with the performance of conventional type.
