An experimental investigation of the flame appearance and heat transfer characteristics in both unexcited and excited impinging inverse diffusion flames with a loud speaker has been performed. The flame is found to become broader and shorter (in length) with acoustic excitation. The heat flux at the stagnation point is increased with the acoustic excitation. The acoustic excitation is more effective in lean conditions than in rich conditions. The reasons for these behaviors are that acoustic excitation improves the entrainment of surrounding air into the jet. From this study, it is found that the maximum increase of 57% in the total heat flux is obtained at the stagnation point of $\Phi$=0.8. Therefore, it is ascertained that the excitation combustion can be adopted with effective instruments as a method for improving heat transfer in impinging jet flames.

차량의 충돌에 따른 등유의 누출에 의한 화재와 항공기 충돌에 따른 항공유의 누출에 의한 화재 발생 시 격실의 개구부 크기에 따른 화염온도를 평가하기 위해 화원으로 등유와 Jet-A-1을 사용하고 개구부의 크기를 조절해 가며 격실화재시험을 수행하였으며, 가장 높게 측정된 시험결과의 조건으로 과도화재시험을 수행하여 금속저장용기가 화염온도에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 시험결과 등유보다 Jet-A-1의 열 방출속도 및 질량 연소유속이 크게 나타났으며, Jet-A-1에서의 화염온도가 높게 측정되었다. 연료 소모율은 개구부의 크기가 클 경우 작은 경우보다 크게 나타났으며, 개구부의 크기가 클 경우 화염온도가 높게 측정되었다. 격실 내에 금속저장용기가 저장되었을 때는 저장용기가 화염으로부터 받는 열량만큼 화염의 온도는 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다.

A theoretical study for the laminar round jet diffusion flame impinging on the wall was carried out to predict the characteristics and structure of impinging jet flame and heat transfer to the wall. Finite chemistry via Arrhenius equation was adopted as the combustion model. All the transport properties were considered as the variable depending on the temperature and composition. For the parametric study, the distance from nozzle to perpendicular wall and Reynolds number at nozzle exit were chosen as the major parameters. As the results of the present study, the characteristics of flow field and the distributions of temperature, density and each chemical species were obtained. The heat transfer rate from flame to the wall and the effective heating area were calculated to investigate the influence of the major parameters on the heat transfer characteristics.

An experimental investigation of the heat transfer characteristics of stretched premixed flames using Synthetic gas has been performed. Hydrogen and carbon mon-oxide which could be extracted from coal gasification process are the main fuel of synthetic-gas. Heat flux at the stagnation point was increased as global strainrate was increased, then the heat flux was decreased when a global strainrate reached a sudden point. Heat flux at the stagnation point is also affected by nozzle to impingement distance. Heat flux was increased as nozzle to impingement place distance was increased. This study is a foundation study of practical use of secondary gases from coals.

A numerical study on lifted flame structure in impinging jet geometry with syngas composition ratio was investigated. The numerical calculations including chemical kinetic analysis were conducted using SPIN application of the CHEMKIN Package with Davis-Mechanism. The flame temperature and velocity profiles were calculated at the steady state for one-dimensional stagnation flow geometry. Syngas mixture compositions were adjusted such as $H_2:CO=10:90(10P)$, 20 : 80 (20P), 30 : 70 (30P), 40 : 60 (40P), 50 : 50 (50P). As composition ratios are changed from 10P to 50P, the axial velocity and flame temperature increase because the contents of hydrogen that have faster burning velocity increase. This phenomenon is due to increase in good reactive radicals such as H, OH radical. As a result of active reactivity, the burning velocity is more faster and this is confirmed by numerical methods. Consequently, combustion reaction zone was moved to burner nozzle.

This paper presents both experimental and numerical investigation of the combustion characteristics of stretched premixed lift-off flames using synthetic gas($H_2$/CO) in an impinging burner. We used "Spin code" for numerical analysis. An ICCD camera was employed to measure flame location and flame thickness. The impinging surface temperature was affected by local strain rate K, equivalence ratio, and composition ratio of fuel. In spite of the difference of boundary conditions in experimental and numerical results, the tendencies of surface temperatures were agreed. From result of this work, we also found that flame location and flame thickness directly related to surface temperature are greatly affected by local strain rate K.

The effect of electric fields on the response of diffusion flames in a counterflow has been investigated experimentally by varying the AC voltage and frequency. The result showed that the flame was stationary with high AC frequency above the threshold frequency, and it increased with the applied voltage and then leveled off at 35 Hz. Below the threshold frequency, however, the flame oscillated with a frequency that was synchronized with the applied AC frequency. This oscillation can be attributed to the ionic wind effect due to the generation of bulk flow, which arises from the momentum transfer by molecular collisions between neutral molecules and ions, where the ions in the reaction zone were accelerated by the Lorentz force.

The characteristics of flame shape, laminar burning velocity, emissions and heat flux of stagnation point in premixed impinging jet flame of syngas fuel with 10% hydrogen content were experimentally investigated. Also, the adiabatic temperature and burning velocity are calculated by Chemkin package with USC-II mechanism. The equivalence ratios(0.8~5.0) and dimensionless separation distance(2.0~5.0) with fixed Reynolds number(1800) are main parameters in this work. Different flame shapes and colors were observed for different impingement conditions. The experimental results of burning velocity by flame surface area have a consistent with previous works and numerical simulation of this work. The inner flame length could be predicted with the ratio of mixture velocity and burning velocity from a simple formulation by the laminar burning velocity definition. It has been observed that the heat fluxes at stagnation point are directly affected by the flame shape including the separation distance. The emission results in impinging flame of syngas fuel show that the characteristics of $NO_x$ emission traced well with adiabatic temperature trend and CO emission due to fuel rich condition increased continuously with respect to the equivalence ratio.
