Abstract:
With global anthropogenic black carbon (BC) emissions increasing, automobiles are significantly contributing as the major source of emissions. However, the appropriate regulations of BC emissions from vehicles are not in place. This study examined BC emissions following fuel types (gasoline, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and diesel) and engine combustion (gasoline direct injection (GDI) and multi-port injection (MPI) for gasoline vehicles) with emission regulations. To this end, chassis dynamometer and aethalometer (AE33) were used. Driving modes created by the National Institute of Environmental Research (NIER) and emission certification modes (CVS-75 and NEDC) for vehicles in Korea were used to determine BC emissions for various vehicle speeds. In addition, the contributions of biomass and coal combustion to the data of AE33 were analyzed to determine the possibility of tracking the BC sources. MPI, LPG, and EURO 6 with diesel particulate filter (DPF) vehicles emitted the lowest BC emissions in NIER modes. Among gasoline vehicles, MPI vehicles showed the lower BC content in PM emissions. Also, older vehicles in MPI vehicles emitted the high PM and BC emissions. The BC emissions of EURO 3 vehicles without DPF were the highest as the results of previous studies, and it was found that as emissions regulations were tightened, the level of BC results of diesel vehicles became similar with MPI vehicles. The average absorption Ångström exponent (AAE) from difference emissions sources were biomass combustion (oak wood) > coal combustion (the power plant stack) > automobile emissions (gasoline, LPG, diesel).

Abstract:
Abstract 1,3-Butadiene (BD) is a known human carcinogen found in cigarette smoke, automobile exhaust, and urban air. Workers occupationally exposed to BD in the workplace have an increased incidence of leukemia and lymphoma. BD undergoes cytochrome P450-mediated metabolic activation to 3,4-epoxy-1-butene (EB), 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane (DEB) and 1,2-dihydroxy-3,4-epoxybutane (EBD), which form covalent adducts with DNA. We have previously reported a quantitative nanoLC/ESI+-HRMS3 method for urinary N7-(1-hydroxy-3-buten-2-yl) guanine (EB-GII) adducts as a mechanism-based biomarker of BD exposure. In the present study, the method was updated to include high throughput 96-well solid phase extraction (SPE) and employed to establish urinary EB-GII biomarker stability and association with smoking. Urinary EB-GII levels were measured bimonthly for 1 year in 19 smokers to determine whether single adduct measurement provides reliable levels of EB-GII in an individual smoker. In addition, association of EB-GII with smoking was studied in 17 individuals participating in a smoking cessation program. EB-GII levels decreased 34% upon smoking cessation, indicating that it is associated with smoking status, but may also originate from sources other than exposure to cigarette smoke.

Abstract:
As for gasoline vehicles, the particulate matter (PM) emissions from traditional port fuel injection (PFI) engines are pretty low. Recently, the gasoline direct injection (GDI) vehicles have been gaining market share globally due to better fuel efficiency, especially in the European countries. A drawback associated with GDI engines is considerably higher PM emissions compared with PFI engines. The soot in gasoline exhaust gas would contribute to urban air pollution, which is deeply related with adverse health effects. For the reduction of PM emission in Europe, a new regulation known as EURO VI has been set recently. Then, we need to trap soot particles in exhaust gas from gasoline automobiles as well as diesel automobiles. However, the gasoline soot would be much smaller than the diesel soot. Also, the gasoline exhaust gas temperature is much higher. Then, we need gasoline particulate filter (GPF) which needs to have better thermal durability. In this study, as a potential GPF, an SiC fiber filter was numerically examined. The effect of the fiber diameter on the filtration was revealed. Results show that, when the filter of the larger fiber diameter is placed more upstream, the deposition of soot particles widely occurs inside the filter, resulting in the lower pressure drop.

Abstract:
Finely atomized sprays from multi-hole gasoline direct injection (GDI) fuel injectors make them an ideal choice for automobile applications. A knowledge of the factors affecting the performance of these injectors is hence important. In the study presented here, we employ statistical extinction tomography to examine the transient characteristics of two GDI fuel injectors with five and six holes. Two axial locations, 25 mm and 35 mm from the injector exit, are chosen for experimental measurements, and the dependence of injection pressure and ambient temperature on plume locations and angles is examined from these measurements. A pressure chamber with opposing windows is used which permits the nozzle to be rotated 12 times (30° each rotation) to obtain information on the complete spray structure. Additionally, the plume centroid locations are measured and compared with those obtained with a mechanical patternator. The centroid locations from the two instruments compare favorably.

Abstract:
Fifty years ago there were no stored-program binary electronic computers. Indeed, in the mid 1940s computer was a job description; the computer was a person. Much has happened in the ensuing half-century. whereas the motto of the 1950s was “do not bend, spindle, or mutilate,” we now have become comfortable with GUI wIMP (i.e., Graphic User Interface; windows, Icons, Mouse, and Pointers). whereas computers once were maintained in isolation and viewed through large picture windows, they now are visible office accessories and invisible utilities. whereas the single computer once was a highly prized resource, modern networks now hide even the machines’ geographic locations. Naturally, some of our perceptions have adapted to reflect these changes; however, much of our understanding remains bound to the concepts that flourished during computing’s formative years. For example, we have moved beyond thinking of computers as a giant brain (Martin 1993), but we still hold firmly to our faith in computing’s scientific foundations. The purpose of this book is to look forward and speculate about the place of computing in the next fifty years. There are many aspects of computing that make it very different from all other technologies. The development of the microchip has made digital computing ubiquitous; we are largely unaware of the computers in our wrist watches, automobiles, cameras, and household appliances. The field of artificial intelligence (AI) sees the brain as an organ with some functions that can be modeled in a computer, thereby enabling computers to exhibit “intelligent” behavior. Thus, their research seeks to extend the role of computers through applications in which they perform autonomously or act as active assistants. (For some recent overviews of AI see waldrop 1987; Crevier 1993.) In the domain of information systems, Zuboff (1988) finds that computers can both automate (routinize) and informate, that is, produce new information that serves as “a voice that symbolically renders events, objects, and processes so that they become visible, knowable, and sharable in a new way” (p. 9).

Abstract:
Electro-Mechanical device complexity exists in everyday items from cell phones to automobiles to vacuum cleaners. Generally, product complexity is one of the least quantifiable characteristics in the design cycle with arguably some of the greatest implications. A high level of device complexity carries a negative connotation and is usually considered an attribute a designer should attempt to mitigate. Alternatively, a low level of device complexity may induce designers and marketers to question a product’s usefulness. Whether complexity is a necessary aspect of a design or a hindrance needing to be minimized or eliminated, depends upon how complexity is framed. Some instances in literature attempt to measure complexity yet there is no unified measure that captures the complexity of a product or system during design phases or upon product/system realization. Complexity is defined in many ways, at different levels of abstraction, and different stages of design therefore, becoming highly contextual and subjective at best. An established and repeatable methodology for calculating complexity of existing products in the marketplace is necessary. Once a measure of complexity is agreed upon at the post design stage we can look to earlier phases in design to see whether insights are observable. Identifying complexity early in the design cycle is paramount to strategic resource allocation. This study considers the Generalized Complexity Index (GCI) measure put forth by Jacobs [1] and expands upon it to include functional modeling as a key component in determining an indicative complexity metric. Functional modeling is a method used to abstract system or product specifications to a general framework that represents a function based design solution. Complexity metrics are developed at the functional and completed design levels and used for comparison. Thirty common household products retrieved from an online design repository [2] as well as seven senior capstone design projects were evaluated using the GCI. A modification to the GCI equation is proposed and to gain a relative scale of complexity within the data, a ranked complexity metric was developed and utilized. The magnitude of the ranked complexity metric was only indicative of hierarchical status of a product within the data set and therefore is not comparable to GCI values. Though Jacobs GCI worked well in his study, the GCI does not represent a meaningful complexity measure when applied to the data in this study. This study is an initial attempt to apply an independent data set to Jacobs GCI model with perhaps greater implications, with respect to products, that complexity is multifaceted and is not accurately represented by only interconnectedness, multiplicity, and diversity.

Abstract:
The Japanese Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) has started two nine-year national R&D projects for small-capacity ceramic gas turbines (CGTs) from 1988, following several preliminary investigations of the technical aspects and of the social impacts of CGTs. Planned 300kW industrial ceramic gas turbines are to be used for co-generation and mobile power generation. The goals are 42% and higher for the thermal efficiency at the turbine inlet temperature of 1350°C, and the emission from the exhaust gas should meet the regulatory values. Also ceramic components have the goals of 400MPa for the minimum flexure strength at 1500°C, and 15 MPam1/2 for the fracture toughness. New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) is the main contractor, and three groups of private industries are the subcontractors for 300kW industrial CGT project. Three national research institutes are involved in the projects to conduct supportive research of ceramic materials and engine components as well as to carry out assessment of the materials and engine systems developed by the private industries. The development of 100kW CGT for automotive use was also recommended in the above stated investigations and a two-year preliminary study started in 1988. The full-scale 100kW automotive CGT R&D project is scheduled to start in 1990 after the preliminary study. Japan Automobile Research Institute, Inc. (JARI) is the main contractor for 100kW automotive CGT project with the cooperation of three automobile companies.

In Japan, a program of research and development of a 100 kW automotive ceramic gas turbine (CGT) has been carried out in the Petroleum Energy Center with active cooperation of petroleum, automobile and ceramics industries as well as other related industries. As a part of this research and development program, we have studied and developed a centrifugal compressor with variable inlet guide vanes for CGT engines. There has been a strong demand for a compressor with a high efficiency and a wide flow range. The compressor performance goals are an adiabatic efficiency of 81% and a surge margin of 8% under maximum power operating conditions. This paper describes the methods for designing impellers, diffusers and variable inlet guide vanes, and presents the results of compressor performance tests. The test results reveal that the surge margin and compressor efficiency at partial load are improved by using inlet guide vanes.

Variable inlet guide vanes (VIGVs) have been developed for a small centrifugal compressor of automobile turbocharger. The effects of pre-whirl flow generated by VIGVs on compressor performance have been studied experimentally. Furthermore, the flow condition in impeller passage of the compressor with VIGVs has been compared to that of the compressor without VIGVs by using three-dimensional flow analysis. The results of experimental study have shown that pre-whirl flow is advantageous to the efficiency and surge characteristics of compressor. A weak fluid oscillation, which usually occurs in the region of high pressure-ratio and high mass flow rates, has been controlled by using VIGVs. The results of calculation of the viscous compressible flow have shown that the pre-whirl generated by VIGVs is effective in decreasing the area of the reverse flow which occurs at shroud suction side and smoothing the flow distribution between shroud and hub at the impeller exit.
