The objective of the present study is to conduct model combustion tests for various injectors to identify their combustion stability characteristics. Three different double swirl coaxial injectors with variation of a recess length have been tested for the comparative study of CH flame structure and dynamic characteristics. Gaseous oxygen and mixture of gaseous methane and propane have been employed for simulating actual propellants used for a full-scale thrust chamber. Upon test results, the direct comparison between various types of injectors can be realized for the selection of the best design among prospective injectors.

An Eulerian-Lagrangian method is employed to simulate the ignition process and the flame propagation through the air/fuel spray mixture in a closed constant-volume combustor. The spray mixture is ignited by providing a hot wall at the end of the combustor or by firing the electric spark. The investigated parameters involve the initial droplet size, overall equivalence ratio, initial fuel vapor concentration, distance between the hot wall and the nearest droplet, and the ignition energy. Numerical results clearly show the existence of the optimum spray condition for minimizing the ignition energy and the ignition delay time as well as the critical dependence of ignition upon the distance of the heat source to the nearest droplet.

The present study conducted computational simulation for multiphase flow in the flame spray coating process with commercially available Ni-Cr powders. The flows in a flame spray gun is characterized by very complex phenomena including combustion, turbulent flows, and convective and radiative heat transfer. In this study, we used a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code of Fluent (ver. 6.3.26) to predict gas dynamics involving combustion, gas and particle temperature distributions, and multi-dimensional particle trajectories with the use of the discrete phase model (DPM). We also examined the effect of particle size on the flame spray process. It was found that particle velocity and gas temperature decreased rapidly in the radial direction, and they were substantially affected by the particle size.

Iso-octane, n-heptane and their blends were tested in a constant volume combustion chamber to measure laminar flame speeds. The experimental apparatus was automatically controlled to enhance the accuracy and data acquisition speed. A large database of laminar flame speeds at elevated temperatures and pressures was established. From this database, laminar flame speeds of iso-octane, n-heptane and their blends were investigated and analysed to derive new correlation to predict laminar flame speeds at any blending ratio. The new flame speed model was successfully applied to these fuels with limited range of errors.

LES results of turbulent premixed combustion flows are introduced by using the dynamic sub-grid scale model based on G-equation describing the flame front propagation. The turbulent premixed combustion flows around bluff body and over backward facing step are analyzed to validate present formation. LES of swirling partially premixed combustion flame is also performed to conform the predictive capabilities of LES model and to prompt our understanding for the combustion flows over double cone swirl burner combustor by using CFD-ACE+ commercial code.

The fully coupled conditional moment closure(CMC) model has been developed to realistically simulate the structure of complex turbulent nonpremixed syngas flame, in which the flame structure could be considerablyl influenced by the turbulence, transport history, and heat transfer as well. In order to correctly account for the transport effect, the CMC transport equations fully coupled with the flow and mixing fields are numerically solved. The present CMC approach has successfully demonstrated the capability to realistically predict the detailed structure and the overall combustion characteristics. The numerical results obtained in this study clearly reveal the importance of the convective and radiative heat transfer in the precise structure and NOx emission of the present confined combustor with a cooling wall.

원자력발전소의 방화지역에서 화재가 발생할 경우 케이블의 화재리스크는 온도, 열속, 화염 등 열적 특성에 의해 평가된다. 원전의 안전정지 기능에 사용되는 각종 케이블은 설계관리 및 성능분석을 위해 화재실증실험으로 열적 특성을 실측하여야 하지만 다양한 화재시나리오에 대한 실험 조건 확보와 실험 비용 등 제약이 따른다. 이에 따라 화재모델 FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator)의 최신버전에 포함된 THIEF (Thermally-Induced Electrical Failure) 모델을 이용하여 국내 원전의 안전정지 케이블에 대한 화재모델링 분석을 수행하였다. 이 연구에서는 케이블이 설치된 형태에 따라 일정 열속에 대한 자켓 온도와 경계조건에 대한 온도분포를 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과 THIEF 모델은 원전 방화지역의 화재에서 안전정지 케이블의 내부온도를 예측할 수 있는 화재모델로 사용가능한 것으로 확인되었다.

A numerical analysis is performed to analyze the reacting flow-field of an axisymetric coaxial ramjet combustor. Two dimensional Navier-Stokes equation with low Reynolds number $k-\varepsilon$ turbulence model is utilized and finite-rate chemistry model is adopted. Eddy dissipation model is applied for a modeling of turbulent combustion. Two different types of combustors (combustor with a suddenly expanded dump and combustor with wedge-shaped flame holders) are compared in a view point of flame stabilizing.

The effects of combined treatment of aqueous chlorine dioxide ($ClO_2$) and fumaric acid on the microbial growth in fresh-cut paprika were investigated. After the combined treatment, the populations of total aerobic bacteria and inoculated Listeria monocytogenes in the paprika sample were reduced by 0.82 and 1.21 log CFU/g, respectively, compared to those of the control. In addition, after 10 d of storage at $10^{\circ}C$, the populations were decreased by 1.21 and 2.10 log CFU/g, respectively. The predictive model for the populations of total aerobic bacteria and L. monocytogenes in the paprika was applied during storage. The prediction equation using Gompertz model was appropriate, based on the statistical analysis such as accuracy factor and bias factor. These results suggest that the combined treatment of aqueous $ClO_2$ and fumaric acid can be an effective technology for microbial decontamination and it can improve microbial safety by decreasing maximum growth rate and increasing lag time of bacteria in the fresh-cut paprika.

The world is striving to transition to a carbon-neutral society. It is expected that using hydrogen instead of hydrocarbon fuel will contribute to this carbon neutrality. However, there is a need for combustion technology that controls the increased NOx emissions caused by hydrogen co-firing. Flameless combustion is one of the alternative technologies that resolves this problem. In this study, a numerical analysis was performed using the 1D opposed-flow diffusion flame model of Chemkin to analyze the characteristics of flameless combustion and the chemical reaction of methane-hydrogen fuel according to its hydrogen content and flue gas recirculation rate. In methane combustion, as the recirculation rate (K_v) increased, the temperature and heat release rate decreased due to an increase in inert gases. Also, increasing K_v from 2 to 3 achieved flameless combustion in which there was no endothermic region of heat release and the region of maximum heat release rate merged into one. In H₂ 100% at K_v 3, flameless combustion was achieved in terms of heat release, but it was difficult to determine whether flameless combustion was achieved in terms of flame structure. However, since the NOx formation of hydrogen flameless combustion was predicted to be similar to that of methane flameless combustion, complex considerations of flame structure, heat release, and NOx formation are needed to define hydrogen flameless combustion.
