Biodiesel is a traditional energy field that can replace low-quality marine fuels for ships and various studies have been conducted. Since the 2000s, Korea has introduced a mandatory supply system of biodiesel for domestic vehicle diesel, gradually raising the blending ratio from 0.5% to 3.5%, and is expected to raise the mandatory blending ratio to about 8.0% by 2030. Therefore, in this study attempted to blend high-quality samples that meet the biodiesel quality standards manufactured by domestic companies with MGO in ratios ranging from 0 to 60%. We utilized a 1-ton combustion chamber to compare and analyze the exhaust gas emissions characteristics. As a result, in the BD60 condition, which represents the maximum range in this study, the O2 increased by approximately 1.5%p, and CO2 tended to decrease by 1.1%p. NOx decreased by approximately 18.2%p from 34.1 ppm to 27.9 ppm. In the case of SOx, a very low concentration of 0.08 ppm was detected under the BD0 condition, and it was undetectable under all other conditions containing biodiesel. This suggests that MGO itself has excellent low-sulfur oil quality and can implement zero SOx through biodiesel mixing. Furthermore the combustion efficiency decreased by approximately 1.91%, from 72% to 70.2%, and the exhaust gas temperature also decreased by about 4.5%p. However despite the lower calorific value of biodiesel compared to MGO, it demonstrated relatively close thermal output per unit content. This indicates sufficient potential for biodiesel to serve as a viable alternative fuel for ships in the future.

In this study, when Butyl ether, a type of diether-based oxygenated fuel, is mixed in each volume ratio in a naturally aspirated direct injection diesel engine, the exhaust gas emission characteristics of the oxygenated component in the fuel affect each operating area of the engine I wanted to investigate the effect on. For comparative measurement of engine performance and exhaust emissions, commercial diesel and butyl ether mixed fuels were classified into 4 types according to the mixing ratio and tested. As the content of butyl ether in fuel increases, soot emission reduction increases, and when the maximum mixing amount of butyl ether (diesel 80vol-% + BE 20vol%) is applied, compared to the case of using only diesel as fuel, at 2500 rpm and no load, 39%, and about 32% of smoke reduction effect at full load was confirmed.

Recently, Regulations on ships exhaust gas are being strengthened. Nations around the world are trying to various efforts in many aspects to decrease ship emission gas. As part of these efforts, the shipping industry is working towards establishing green system that reduce the emission gas emitted in port. In this study we measured exhaust emission gases such as by fuel change using A-Ra Training Ship in Port. When sailing, we found that was 3.6% to 6.6% higher when using LRFO compared to using MGO, and during departure and arrival, the load changes were significant. As a result, was on average 29.8% higher and was 42% higher during departure, while was on average 19.5% higher and was 17.4% higher during arrival, with almost no difference in the other components.

Diesel engine has the advantages of strong power, low fuel consumption and good durability, so it has been widely used in transportation, automobile, ship and other fields. However, the nitrogen oxides(NOx) and particulate matter(PM) emitted by diesel engines have become one of the main causes of air pollution. Especially during idling, the engine temperature is low, and there are more residual exhaust gases in the combustion chamber, resulting in the formation of more harmful emissions. In this study, performance of a single cylinder, four-stroke, direct injection (DI) diesel engine fueled with diesel–biodiesel mixtures has been experimentally investigated. The findings show that a remarkable improvement in PM–NOx trade-off can be achieved by burning diesel-bioethanol blend fuels.

Dimethoxymethane, also known as methylal, is an oxygenated additive that contains approximately 42% oxygen content and is soluble in diesel fuel. Experiments were conducted by using the five kinds of blended fuels with different volumetric percentage of DMM in a diesel fuel. The test engine was used four stroke, single cylinder, DI diesel engine. Also, data was collected at 24 kinds of various engine speed-load conditions. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of the addition of oxygenated additive to diesel fuel on the emissions and the performance. Smoke emissions of all DMM blended fuels were reduced substantially in comparison with diesel fuel. In addition, this study showed that simultaneous reduction of NOx and smoke emissions could be achieved by oxygenated additive and EGR method that was applied to decrease smoke emissions increasing with NOx emissions reduction.

In this study, blending oils of diesel oil and butanol were used as fuel oil for diesel engine to measure combustion pressure, fuel consumption, air ratio and exhaust gas emission due to various operating conditions such as engine revolution and torque. Using these data, the results of analyzing the engine performance, combustion characteristics and exhaust emission characteristics such as NOx (nitrogen oxides), CO2 (carbon dioxide), CO (carbon monoxide) and soot were as follows. The fuel conversion efficiency at each load was highest when driven in the engine revolution determined by a fixed pitch propeller law. Except 30% butanol blending oil, fuel conversion efficiency of the other fuel oils increased as the load increased. Compared to diesel oil, using 10% and 20% butanol blending oil as fuel oil was advantageous in terms of thermal efficiency, but it did not have a significant impact on the reduction of exhaust gas emissions. On the other hand, future research is needed on the results of the 20% butanol blending oil showing lower or similar levels of smoke concentration and carbon monoxide emission rate other than those types of diesel oil.

The purposes of improving air pollution and suggesting energy resources have intensified research on various alternative energy for diesel combustion engines to solve severe environmental influences caused by air pollution. In this study, the applicable possibility of biodiesel and oxygenates (EGBE) was investigated as a cuspy method on decreasing the smoke emission. The smoke emission of blending fuel (biodiesel and EGBE) was reduced in comparison with commercial diesel fuel and it was reduced almost 63% at 2000 rpm, full load. But torque and brake specific energy fuel consumption rate didn't have any large changes. Also, the effectiveness of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) for the reduction of NOx emission has been investigated. It was shown that simultaneous reduction of NOx and smoke emission was achieved with biodiesel(90%), oxygenates (10%) and cooled EGR rates (10%) in an IDI diesel engine.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of operating conditions on the performance of small HSDI compression ignition engine. Combustion and exhaust emission characteristics of engine were studied by using CFD simulation with ECFM-3Z combustion model. The conditions of simulation were varied with injection timing, injection pressure, and operating speed, and the results were compared in terms of combustion pressure, rate of heat release, NOx and soot. It was found that as injection timing was advanced and injection pressure is increased, combustion pressure and rate of heat release were increased. As a result, NOx generation is increased. Soot generation is also increased due to the wall film caused by the increase of the injection pressure and locally the rich mixture caused by the effect of the advancing of injection timing.

최근 지구 온난화는 세계 경제발전으로 화석연료 사용이 주범으로 인식하고 있다. 이러한 화석연료를 감소하기 위한 연구는 여러 대체에너지 산업으로 발전하고 있으며, 그 중 우리나라에서 생산할 수 있는 연료는 바이오연료이다. 바이오연료는 화석연료에 의해서 발생하는 환경오염 문제를 줄이면서 경제적인 이익을 주는 지속 가능한 연료이다. 그래서 바이오연료를 친환경에너지로 전환시키는 재생에너지 등에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 따라서 본 실험은 어선에서 사용했던 기관을 다시 리모델링하여 실험장치를 직접 제작 설치하였고, 여러 바이오연료를 사용하여 선박의 경제적이고 친환경적인 운항에 도움을 주고자 연구하였다. 유채유, 대두유, 폐유채유의 배기배출물특성에 미치는 영향을 종합적으로 분석한 결과는 연료의 물리적, 화학적 성분이 비슷하여 선박용 엔진에 사용이 가능하고, 연료소비율과 NOx는 약간 증가하였으나, 매연은 많이 감소하는 경향이 확인되었다.

Biodiesel fuel as an alternative fuel for diesel engine has a great possibility to solve the problem such as air pollution caused by exhaust gas emission of the automobile. In this study, the usability of non-esterfied biodiesel fuel as alternative fuel is investigated in an indirect injection diesel engine. New concept biodiesel fuel has no glycerin generated by esterfication process and reduces the 20% of cost because of no use of methanol in the production process. Experiments were conducted by using the four blends with different volumetric percentage of biodiesel (0, 20, 50 and 100) in baseline diesel fuel. The smoke emission of biodiesel fuel was reduced in comparison with diesel fuel, but power and brake specific energy consumption was similar to diesel fuel

본 연구에서는 한국해양대학교 실습선 한바다를 이용하여 선박의 입․출항 및 약 150 rpm의 정속 운항 할 때 주기관에서 배출되는 배기가스를 실시간 계측하였다. 실측 결과 질소산화물의 농도는 정속 운항시 800 ppm 에서 1,000 ppm 사이인데 반해, 입․출항시에는 210 ppm 에서 1,230 ppm 까지 큰 범위에서 값이 변화하였다. 일산화탄소의 농도 역시 정속운항 상태 보다 입․출항시 측정값의 변화가 크게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 입․출항시 가능한 한 주기관의 부하변동이 급격히 발생되지 않도록 하는 선박 조종 스킬이 필요하다는 것을 의미한다. 또한, 배기가스 저감 기술의 적용에 있어 입․출항시와 정속 운항할 때 그 차이를 고려할 필요가 있다는 것을 나타낸다.

In order to test the applicability of bunker-A in a diesel engine for small-fishing boat, the investigation of the engine performance and the exhaust emission was performed under various conditions of fuel property, intake air pressure and fuel temperature. It was also performed based on IMO NOx Technical code. At high load, the energy consumption rate of bunker-A was lower than that of diesel oil, and the characteristics of exhaust emission of bunker-A were similar to those, and NOx emission rates of both fuels satisfied the IMO NOx emission regulation limits. The energy consumption rate and characteristics of exhaust emission were improved as the intake air pressure was increased, but these were not improved remarkably as the temperature of bunker-A was heated. However, at low load the energy consumption rate, CO emission rate and HC emission rate of bunker-A were higher than those of diesel oil, but NOx emission rates of the fuels were about the same. In addition, at low load the energy consumption rate and CO emission rate of bunker-A were increased as the intake air pressure and the temperature were higher than normal conditions. Accordingly, it is thought that the use of bunker-A in a kind of test engine is possible at high load. On the other hand, it is thought that more research is needed to improve the combustion efficiency under low temperature and low load condition.
