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.

The purpose of this study is to analyse and compare the fuel combustion characteristics between LPG and gasoline on SI engine. Pressures of combustion chamber were measured on the state that engine speed was 2000rpm and BMEP was 2.0bar And we measured pressures of combustion chamber regarding variation of the MBT We could know that the combustion pressure of LPG fuel use engine is appeared lower than that of gasoline fuel use engine. At the lean mixture ratio area we could blow that Ignition timings are pulled very forward, and ignition timing of LPG fuel is advanced to $5\sim12^{\circ}$ CA than gasoline fuel. We learned that the value of coefficient of variation of LPG fuel is higher than gasoline fuel.

국내 LPG 미터는 "계량에 관한 법률"에 의거 LPG 정량에 대한 검사가 실시되고 있다. LPG 미터는 "계량에 관한 법률 시행령"에 따라 3년마다 재검정이 실시된다. 검사 시 최대허용오차는 ${\pm}1.0%$ 이내, 사용오차는 ${\pm}1.5%$ 이내이다. 정량 측정 시에는 밀도부액계, 저울, 압력용기를 사용한다. LPG는 온도와 압력에 따라 부피 변화의 정도가 매우 심하다. 현행 정량 측정 방법은 LPG의 부피를 구하기 위해 온도 및 압력, 밀도를 측정해야 하며, 이에 따른 장비들이 필요하다. 반면에 코리올리 질량유량계는 질량유량, 밀도, 온도를 동시에 측정하며, 컴퓨터 프로그램을 사용하여 측정값을 필요한 값으로 변환 및 산출 할 수 있어, 산업현장에서 널리 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 LPG 정량 측정에 대한 기초연구로서, 코리올리 질량유량계를 이용하여 LPG 충전기에서 나온 LPG 부피를 측정했다. 또한, 기존 LPG 충전기 검사방법과의 비교를 통해 코리올리 질량유량계를 이용한 LPG 충전기 검사도 가능하다는 결론을 얻었다.

지난 30년간의 LPG(Liquified Petroleum Gas)자동차의 사용으로 현재 전국에는 500여 곳의 LPG자동차 충전소가 운영되고 있다. LPG자동차의 운행대수에 비하면 충전소의 수가 절대적으로 부족하고, 또한 LPG자동차의 보급확대를 위해서는 충전소 확충이 필수적이다. 그러나 최근의 아현동 도시가스 밸브기지 폭발사고나 대구 지하철 공사장 도시가스 폭발사고와 같은 대형 가스 폭발사고의 여파로 충전소 설치 부지의 확보에 큰 어려움을 겪고 있다. 특히, 대도시 지역 내에서의 충전소 설치는 인근 지역주민의 강력한 반대로 거의 불가능한 실정이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate reduction of exhaust gas temperature in LPG conversion engine from diesel. A conventional diesel engine was modified to a LPG(Liquified Petroleum Gas) engine that diesel fuel injection pump was replaced by the LPG fuel system. The research was peformed with measurement of exhaust gas temperature by varying spark ignition timing, air-fuel ratio, compression ratio, EGR ratio and different compositions of butane and propane. The major conclusion of this work were followed. (i) Exhaust gas temperature was decreased and power was increased with the advanced spark ignition timing. (ii) Exhaust gas temperature was decreased with lean and rich air-fuel ratio. (iii)Exhaust gas temperature was decreased and power was increased with the higher compression ratio. (iv) Engine power and exhaust temperature were not influenced by varied butane/propane fuel compositions. (v) Finally, one of the important parameters in reduction of exhaust gas temperature is spark ignition timing among the parameters in this study.

This study aims to find the safe vent area to prevent a destruction of building by gas explosion in a building. Explosion vessel which used in this experiment is 1/5 scale down model of simple livingroom and its dimension is 100cm in length 60cm in width and 45cm in height. Liquified petroleum gas(LPG) was injected to the vessel to the concentration of 4.5vol%, and injection rate were varied in 1L/min or 4L/min. Gas mixture was ignited by the 10kV electric spark. For analysis the characteristics of vented explosion pressure according to the vent size and vent shape, its size and shape were varied. From the experiment, it was found that explosion pressure in the vented explosion :in affected by the gas injection rate, vent area and vent shape. And the vent area to volume ratio(S/V) to prevent the building destruction by explosion pressure, it is recommended that the design of vent area happened by the explosion should be above 1/500cm in S/V. And if the vent area has complicate structure in same area, vented explosion pressure will be higher than a single vent, and possibility of building destruction will increase. Therefore to effectively vent the explosion pressure for protect a building and residents from the gas explosion hazards, the same vent area should have a singular and constant shape in the cross-sectional area of the vessel.

Using gas chromatography, the light hydrocarbon emissions were analyzed from SI engine fueled with methane and liquified petroleum gas(LPG), and the effects of fuel and engine operating condition were discussed. For this purpose, 14 species of light hydrocarbon including 1, 3-butadiene were separated, calibrated with standard gas, and measured from undiluted emissions. The brake specific hydrocarbon emission(BSHC) and ozone forming potential(BSO)3 were calculated and discussed with the changes of fuel, engine speed, load, fuel/air equivalence ratio, coolant temperature, and spark timing. As a result, exhaust emission was composed of mainly fuel composed of mainly fuel comp- onent and other olefin components of similar carbon number. The olefin components such as ethylene and propylene determine most of the ozone forming potential. The fraction of fuel component in total hydrocarbon emission was bigger with methane fuel than with LPG fuel. Also fuel fraction increased at high speed or high speed or high temperature of exhaust gas, and to lesser extent with high coolant temperature and retarded spark. However, the effect of equivalence ratio had different tendency according to fuels.

A study has been made on the applicability of gas-liquid partition chromatography to the qualitative and quantitative analysis of complex mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons. While phthalate columns are widely used for this $purpose^9$, they separates neither saturated hydrocarbons from the unsaturated nor n-butane from isobutene or butene-1, therefore combined columns such as phthalate and dimethylsulfolane have been used for the perfect separation of gaseous hydrocarbons. It is shown by this study, however, that hydrocarbons having $C_1$ through $C_4$ can be separated with a 2-meters tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether column except ethane from ethylene, and trans-from cis-2-butene especially operated at $15^{\circ}C$$ using helium as the carrier gas. The column effluents were in order of methane, (ethane, ethylene), propane, propylene, isobutane, n-butane, isobutylene, butene-1, (trans-& cis-2-butene, isopentane), (butadiene-1, 3, n-pentane). Two kinds of liquified petroleum gases in market are analysed qualitatively and quantitatively. The results indicate that use of this 2-meters TEGDE column permits the separation and identification of all the commonly encountered aliphatic gaseous hydrocarbons.

이 논문의 목적은 LPG 자동차의 전자제어에 대한 요소의 하나인 컴퓨터에 대한 고장사례를 찾아 분석하고 연구하는 것이다. 첫 번째 사례는, 엔진의 ECU가 슬로우 컷 솔레노이드 밸브에 작동 신호를 미입력하여 공회전 조절 액추에이터로 연료보정을 제대로 할 수 없어 엔진의 시동이 꺼지는 현상을 확인하였다. 두 번째 사례는 점화코일의 배선 녹음현상 및 ECU 내부의 트랜지스터(Transistor)가 열에 의한 소손으로 인해 운행중 엔진 부조화 현상 및 역화 현상이 발생한 것을 확인하였다. 세 번째 사례는 엔진의 ECU 회로판 내부의 수분유입으로 인해 전기가 누전되거나 과전류가 흘러 엔진의 어떤 시스템을 오작동 시키거나 엔진의 작동을 멈추게 하는 현상을 확인하였다. 따라서, 이러한 엔진 컴퓨터의 오작동 신호나 내부의 손상과 수분에 의한 부식현상이 생기지 않도록 철저한 품질확보를 통해 컴퓨터의 내구성과 신뢰성을 높여야 할 것으로 판단된다.
