A flame speed of methane mixture of water vapor and air have been measured to study the process of flame propagation using schlieren photographs. The quantity of water vapor contained were changed 5% and 10% of total mixture, and equivalence ratio of mixture between 0.8 and 1.2 were tested under the ambient temperature 323K and 373K. The results showed that the burning velocity was decreased by increasing the water vapor contents due to the interruption of flame development. And, the reduction rate of burning velocity was smaller by increasing the water contents under the same ambient temperature. The effects of ambient temperature on burning velocity was decreased by increasing the water vapor contents.

In this study, the experimental and numerical investigations of the ignition of methane-air mixtures by a electrically heated wire have been carried out. In order to define the initial condition and make the analysis simple, the following control unit was developed; which heats the wire to the setting temperature in a very short time, and maintains the wire temperature constant until ignition. Experiments with the feedback control have been performed using nickel and platinum wires in normal gravity and microgravity. From experimental results, ignition temperatures in normal gravity are higher than those in microgravity, however, the dependences of ignition temperature on equivalence ratio are not affected by natural convection. Numerical calculations, including catalytic reaction for platinum, have been performed to analyze the experimental results in microgravity. Numerical results show that reactants near platinum wire are consumed by catalytic reaction, therefore, the higher temperature is needed to ignite the mixture with platinum wire.

In this study, a cylindrical constant volume combustion chamber is used to investigate the flow and combustion characteristics of methane-air homogeneous mixture under various initial charge pressure, excess air ratios and ignition times. The flame and burning speed, mean gas speed are calculated by numerical analysis to analyze the combustion characteristics. It is found that the mean gas velocity during combustion has the maximum value around 300 ms and then decreased gradually on the condition of 10000 ms, and that the combustion duration is shorten and flame speed and burning velocity have the highest value under the conditions of an excess air ratio 1.1, an initial charge pressure of 0.2 MPa and an ignition time of 300 ms in the present study. And, the initial pressure and burning speed are in inverse proportion, so that it is in agreement with Strehlow who presented that the initial pressure and burning speed are in inverse proportion when the burning speed is under 50cm/s.

Radiation effects on the partially premixed methane flames diluted with water vapor in the air stream were numerically investigated. OPPDIF code and GRI-v3.0 were used in the numerical simulation. Adiabatic condition was compared with two different radiation models, optically-thin and WSGGM models. It was found that the radiation effect on the flame structure for the equivalence ratio (${\Phi}$) of 2.5 was less than ${\Phi}=1.5$. Extinction limit was not affected significantly, however, local flame structure was markedly influenced by the radiation models as increasing the water vapor concentration.

Recently developed technique of measuring minor species concentration by using the modulation dip in broadband CARS has been applied to the flame structure study of methane/air premixed flames in a counterflow. This method used the modulation dip from the cold band CO Q-branch resonant signal superimposed on the nonresonant background. The measured CO concentration profile in a symmetric and unsymmetric methane/air premixed flames together with the velocity and temperature by using LDV and CARS have been compared with the numerical results adopting detailed chemistry modeling. The results show that there is a satisfactory agreement between the experimental data and numerical results for velocities, temperatures and CO concentrations. And the modulation dip technique of measuring minor species, such as CO is a viable tool for a quantitative measurement in a flame.

Methane/Air premixed flames are studied numerically, using a detailed chemical model, to investigate the flame strech effects on the extinction in a counterflow. The finite difference method, time integration and modified Newton iteration are used, and adaptive grid technique and grid smoothing have been employed to adjust the grid system according to the spatial steepness of the solution profiles. Results show that the flame stretch, or the conventional nondimensionalized stretch having the tangential flow characteristics of the stretched flame alone cannot adequately describes the extinction phenomena. On the other hand, the local flame stretch having both the normal and tangential flow characteristics of the stretched flame can give a proper explanation to the extinction of the symmetric planar premixed flames stabilized in a counter flow. The extinction condition were found to be a constant local stretch regardless of the equivalence ratio.

Flame propagation speed characteristics of methante-air mixtures were experimentally investigated in combustion chamber modelled engine. Flame propagation process was known as a funtion of equivalence ratio initial pressure and initial temperature. Ion probe and schlieren photograph were applied to measure the local flame speed and flame radius in quiescent mixtures. Pressure was also measured to make sure of the reproducibility and to apply combustion analysis. Burning velocity was calculated from the flame propagation speed and combustion analysis. Flames were developed faster with higher initial pressure and initial temperature but showed maximum propagation speed at equivalence ratio 1.1 regardless of initial pressure and temperature. Local flame speed was maximum values at near midpoint between center and wall.

Numerical simulations of nonpremixed $CH_4/C_2HCl_3$(Trichloroethylene, TCE)/Air flames are conducted at atmospheric pressure in order to understand the effect of hydrocabon bound chlorine on methane/air flames. A chemical kinetic mechanism is employed, the adopted scheme involving 48 gas-phase species and 445 elementray reaction steps containing 223 backward reactions. The calculated temperature, velocity, and critical strain rate are compared with the experiments for the flame (16.1% TCE by Vol.) estabilished at a strain rate of $175s^{-1}$. Whereas there is overall good agreement between predictions and the measurements, it appears that the critical strain rate is higher than measured, and some areas of further refinement in the kinetic mechanism are required.

A constant volume combustion chamber was used to investigate the combustion characteristics. of homogeneous charge of methane-air mixture under various initial pressure, equivalence ratio and ignition times. The constant volume combustion chamber(CVCC) mostly has been studied by the experiments of visualization until now. So it is needed the numerical analysis of fluid and combustion characteristics in chamber by the more detail simulation. In this paper, the numerical analysis is tried to approach basically the homogeneous charge combustion phenomena under the various conditions, and the combustion phenomena in chamber is numerically analyzed by the commercial FIRE code. As a results, the combustion phenomena which were mean temperature, OH radical and reaction rate in chamber were investigated and it showed that the smallest flame growth occurs for the lean state and the increase of initial charged pressure condition due to the reduced OH radical.
