The combustion and exhaust emissions characteristics of a liquefied petroleum gas-di-methyl ether compression ignition engine with a variable valve timing device were investigated under various liquefied petroleum gas injection timing conditions. Liquefied petroleum gas was used as the main fuel and was injected directly into the combustion chamber. Di-methyl ether was used as an ignition promoter and was injected into the intake port. Different liquefied petroleum gas injection timings were tested to verify the effects of the mixture homogeneity on the combustion and exhaust emission characteristics of the liquefied petroleum gas-di-methyl ether compression ignition engine. The average charge temperature was calculated to analyze the emission formation. The ringing intensity was used for analysis of knock characteristics. The combustion and exhaust emission characteristics differed significantly depending on the liquefied petroleum gas injection and intake valve open timings. The CO emission increased as the intake valve open and liquefied petroleum gas injection timings were retarded. However, the particulate matter emission decreased and the nitrogen oxide emission increased as the intake valve open timing was retarded in the diffusion combustion regime. Finally, the combustion efficiency decreased as the intake valve open and liquefied petroleum gas injection timings were retarded.

This paper compares the performance of JP-8(Jet Propellant) fuel and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and natural gas in the F110 GE100 jet engine. The cost of natural gas usage in gas turbine engines is lower than JP-8 and LPG. LPG cost is more than JP-8. LPG volume is bigger than JP-8 in the same flight conditions. Fuel tank should be cryogenic for using natural gas in the aircraft. Cost and weight of the cryogenic tanks are bigger. Cryogenic tanks decrease the move capability of the aircraft. The use of jet propellant (JP) is the best in available application for F110 GE 100 jet engine.

현행 액화석유가스의 안전관리 및 사업법의 시행규칙에 의거하면 액화 가스는 용기 체적의 85%까지 충전하도록 되어있다. 이에 상당하는 충전량은 $65^{\circ}C$를 기준으로 내부에 액체의 열팽창을 고려한 수치이다. 하지만 소형 또는 이동이 용이한 용기가 특정 상황에서는 용기 내부 액체의 온도가 $65^{\circ}C$ 미만을 유지한다고 단정 지을 수 없다. 열역학적 관점에서 액 팽창은 용기 재료의 강성만으로 제어하기 어려운 요소이며, 결국 파열 등의 사고를 유발 할 수 있는 잠재적인 위험 요인이 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 밀폐계에서 임계상태 액체 프로판의 열 팽창량을 추정하는 방법과 추정 된 결과를 제시 할 것이며, 내압 변화에 따른 용기의 체적 증가를 유도하는 구조적 요소를 실험적으로 제안할 것이다. 본 논문을 통해 제시된 결과는 향후 액화가스의 압력용기 설계에 있어 중요한 기초 자료가 될 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reduction of exhaust gas temperature in a LPG engine that had been converted from a diesel engine. A conventional diesel engine was modified to a LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) engine by replacing the diesel fuel injection pump with a LPG fuel system. The research was performed by measuring the exhaust gas temperature upon varying spark ignition timing, airfuel ratio, compression ratio, and different compositions of butane and propane. Engine power and exhaust temperature were not influenced by various butane/propane fuel compositions. Finally, among the parameters studied in this investigation, spark ignition timing is one of the most important in reducing exhaust gas temperature.

In this study, the performance and emission characteristics of a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) engine converted from a diesel engine were examined by using mixer system and liquid propane injection (LPi) system. A compression ratio of 21 for the base diesel engine, was modified to 8, 8.5, 9 and 9.5. The engine performance and emissions characteristics are analyzed by investigating engine power, brake mean effective pressure (BMEP), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), volumetric efficienry, CO, THC and NOx. Experimental results showed that the LPi system generated higher power and lower emissions than the conventional mixer fuel supply method.

국내에는 가스를 사용하는 에너지 산업시설(저장시설, 고압가스 배관, 충전소, 탱크로리 등)이 전국에 산재해 있다. 이러한 대형 가스 시설에서는 화재, 폭발 및 유독물질 누출 등 중대사고가 발생할 수 있다. 또한 대기오염을 줄이기 위한 천연가스자동차의 보급으로 LNG(Liquefied Natural Gas), CNG(Compressed Natural Gas) 충전소의 보급이 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 부천에서 발생한 LPG(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) 충전소의 대형가스사고 이후 충전소의 설치는 많은 어려움이 따른다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 LCNG/LNG 복합충전소를 연구대상으로 선정하고 기존의 정성적 위험성평가의 결과를 토대로 정량적인 위험성 평가를 표현하고, HSE(Health and Safety Executive) 기준과 비교를 통한 위험성을 확인하고자 한다.

The injection and spray characteristics of top-feed type injector was investigated under liquid phase injection fueled with liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Different pressures and temperatures of fuel injection system were tested to identify the injection characteristics after hot soaking. MIE-scattering technique was used for verification of successful liquid phase injection after hot soaking. In case of bottom-feed type injector, the injection was accomplished at every experimental condition. In case of top-feed type injector, when the pressure of LPG was over 1.2 MPa, the injection was not executed. However, under the pressure were 1.2 MPa, the liquid phase injection after hot soaking was accomplished. The engine with top-feed type fuel injection equipment was restarted successfully after hot soaking.

우리나라 수출의 97.5%, 수입의 87.2%가 해상운송으로 이뤄지며 항만이 한국 경제의 중요한 구성요소이다. 이러한 항만의 효율적인 운영을 위해서는 항만 물동량의 단기 예측을 통해 개선시킬 수가 있으며 과학적인 연구방법이 필요하다. 이전 연구는 주로 장기예측을 기반으로 대규모 인프라투자를 위한 연구에 중점을 두었으며 컨테이너 항만물동량에만 집중한 측면이 크다. 본 연구는 국내 대표적인 석유항만인 울산항의 석유 및 가스화물 물동량에 대한 단기 예측을 수행하였으며 딥러닝 모델인 LSTM(Long Short Term Memory) 모델을 사용하여 RMSE기준으로 예측성능을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 석유 및 가스화물 물동량 수요 예측의 정확도를 높여 항만 운영의 효율성을 개선하는 근거가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 또한 기존 연구의 한계로 컨테이너 항만 물동량뿐만 아니라 석유 및 가스화물 물동량 예측에도 LSTM의 활용할 수 있다는 가능성을 확인할 수 있으며 향후 추가 연구를 통해 일반화가 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Using the CNG(compressed natural gas) and LPG(liquified petroleum gas) as the automotive fuel will be expanded because of their clean effect to the environmental air qualify. But these programs of gas using expansion would have a difficulty due to public consideration of gas utilities as a big hazard. The Ministry of Environment has an ambitious plan to substitute more than 25,000 buses with CNG and ensure more than 200 CNG refueling stations as well by the year of 2007. However, it is very difficult to establish new CNG and LPG refueling stations because of expanded safety distance than ever before by several major explosion accidents.
