This investigation decribes the effect of the combustion and emission characteristics of HCNG engine according to the high purity hydrogen contents. The HCNG fuel was made by the mixture with a high purity hydrogen ($H_2$) and a natural gas. The test vehicle was applied to the bi-fuel (Gasoline and CNG) system and this system was modified from the fuel supply and fuel tank. In addition, the three premixed HCNG fuels with mixed rate of 10, 20 and 30% of hydrogen were used to maintain the safety. In order to analyze the combustion characteristics of HCNG and CNG, the fuel was injected in the combustor with constant volume. The exhaust emission from light duty vehicle with bi-fuel system was analyzed by a chassis dynamometer and emission analyzer. From these results, the reduction rate of NOx emission increased in the HCNG fuel and emission amount of THC and CO shows a similar level with CNG fuel. This study can be utilized the basic data for the development of a new business plans related with HCNG engines.

Pulverized coal (PC) has become an important auxiliary fuel in the iron and steel industry since the technique of pulverized coal injection (PCI) was developed for iron making. The combustion efficiencies of pulverized coal in blowpipes and tuyeres under various operational conditions are numerically predicted to determine the performance levels with regard to different locations of the nozzles in a blast furnace. A variety of parameters, including the pulverized coal quantities, oxygen amounts, inlet temperatures of the tuyeres, and the mass flow rate of coal carrier gas are taken into consideration. Also, in order to develop greater efficiency than those of existing coal injection systems, this study applies a flame measurement system using a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera and a frame grabber. It uses auto sampling algorithms from the flame shape information to determine the device for the optimal location control for PCI. This study finds further improvements of the blast furnace performance via the control of the PCI locations.

The scale of 2.4 MW MCFC was taken to construct a high-efficiency and economical power generation system without CO2 emission into the atmosphere for utilizing its exhaust gas. The conventional steam turbine power generation system (STGS) was evaluated and the net generated power (NGP) was estimated to be only 133 kW and the STGS is not economically feasible. A CO2-caputuring repowering system was proposed, where low temperature steam (LTS) produced at HRSG by using exhaust gas from MCFC is utilized as a main working fluid of a gas turbine, and the temperature of LTS was raised by combusting fuel in a combustor by using pure oxygen, not the air. It has been shown that NGP of the proposed system is 264 kW, and CO2 reduction amount is 608 t-CO2/y, compared to 306 t-CO2/y of STGS. The CO2 reduction cost was estimated to be negligible small, even when the costs of oxygen production and CO2 liquefaction facilities etc. were taken into account.

In this paper, a numerical study has been performed to analyze flow characteristics of rocket propulsion. Through the ground spin test, combustion chamber pressure was measured. Based on the experimental results, numerical analysis was conducted under various nozzle pressure ratio conditions such as standard, operating and base pressure conditions. And it was compared with quasi-1D solution and experimental result. In addition, the difference in thrust characteristics according to the spin/non-spin of the flow conditions was confirmed at the same nozzle pressure ratio.

DARPA's hypersonic propulsion program VULCAN is aimed for development of Mach 4+ capable engine by combining current production turbofan engine such as F119 with CVC (Constant Volume Combustion) engine. Final goal is a TBCC(Turbo-based Combined Cycle) engine by combining with dual mode ramjet/scramjet engine. CVC is a common designation of new concept of high efficiency engines, such as Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) or Continuous Detonation Engine (CDE), which use the detonation as a combustion mechanism. Present paper introduces the internationally collaborative research activities carried out in Aerospace Combustion and Propulsion Laboratory of the department of Aerospace Engineering of the Pusan national University.

Ignition and combustion performance of a gas-turbine engine were changed by various high-altitude condition. A goal of this study is to make the small test facility to simulate high-altitude condition. To perform the low pressure condition, a diffuser was used in various diffuser front of primary nozzle pressure. To perform the low temperature, heat exchanger was used in various mixture ratio of cryogenic air and ambient temperature air. The experimental result shows that high-altitude conditions can be controled by diffuser front of primary nozzle pressure and mixture ratio of cryogenic air and ambient temperature air.

Swirl injector with adjustable backhole length was analyzed to suppress high-frequency combustion instability in Liquid Rocket Engines. In order to analyze the effect of swirl injector as an acoustic absorber, swirl injector was regarded as a quarter-wave resonator and its damping capacity is verified in atmospheric temperature. Experiments were carried out with copied tubes on air core because the interior air core volume of injector has a direct effect on damping. From the experimental data, it is proved that increasing the number of injectors mounted at each anti-node point can increase acoustic damping effect. Also, when tuned injectors at 1L, 1T, 1L1T modes simultaneously are installed at each anti-node point of model chamber, the damping effect of tuned injectors with multi modes agree well with it of tuned injectors with single mode.

This study is about fire resistance performance of wood framed lightweight wall including a middle lintel as a traditional wall form in Korea. The target wall is non-loadbearing system which constructed with $38{\times}89$ mm ($2"{\times}4"$) wood frame and fireproof gypsum board covering, including a middle lintel made of $150{\times}150$ mm section glue-laminated timber. As a test results, all specimens have showed fire resistant performance over 90 minutes and tests were maintained until flame occuring on Specimen-l, 2, 3 at 91 min, 97 min and 98 min respectively. Fire resistance of the heat side gypsum board was 45 minutes and charring rate of middle lintel was equivalant with that of usual timber. The wood stud inside wall system showed relatively quick combution characteristic when exposed to high temperature with no temperature rising delaying time caused by moisture evaporation because of the dehydration preceded during the early period of fire side gypsum board resist to heat.
