Outline of Final Research Achievements

Toward utilization of biofuel and realization of eco-mobility, compatibility of the high efficiency of small energy conversion equipment and environmental performance is an essential condition. The problems to be solved in this study are ① a gas turbine for small power generation operated by natural gas, biogas, coal gas, etc. as fuel, ② a reciprocating engine for dual fuel automobiles using both biogas and liquid fuel as fuel, ③ jet fuel and biofuel for small turbojet engines to be used as fuel.
In each problem, barriers for achieving both high efficiency and environmental performance embedded are ① measures against combustion vibration, ② real-time control algorithm with light calculation load, ③ development of noise reduction device released from a nozzle. We proposed a solution to such dynamic problems inherent in corresponding energy converting devices from a new viewpoint involving chemical reactions.
