연료분출을 수반하는 원통형 보염기 후류에 형성되는 확산화염에 대한 이온전류의 특성과 화염의 안정범위를 측정, 분석함으로써 연소특성을 고찰하였다. 난류강도가 큰 경우의 화염일수록 화염의 안정성은 악화되며, 화염내 중앙의 평균 이온전류값이 가장 높은 값을 갖는 영역은 블로오프 직전상태에 비해서 안정시의 경우 더욱 하류측에 존재한다. 난류의 정도가 강한 화염의 경우 국소적으로 반응이 활발한 화염 덩어리가 빠른 속도로 이동하며, 난류의 정도가 강한 화염의 경우에는 반응이 완만한 화염 덩어리가 저속으로 이동한다. 재순환영역에서 주류유동측으로 이동함에 따라 자기상관계수의 저하가 빨라지고 난류 시간스케일이 작아지며, 부염기 직후에서 하류로 이동함에 따라 자기상관계수의 저하가 늦어지고 난류시간스케일이 커진다. 주류공기에 강한 난류를 가하지 않은 경우에는 큰 난류시간스케일에 대응되는 저주파수 특성이외에도 작은 난류 시간스케일에 대응되는 고주파수 특성이 나타나며 , 주류공기에 강한 난류를 가한 경우에는 큰 난류 시간스케일에 대응되는 저주파수 특성이 나타난다.

The high loading combustion is accomplished by making the turbulent intensity strong and the scale small in the premixed combustor. The Da-mkoler number, which is decreased by short turbulent characteristic time or by long chemical reaction time, can make the distributed reaction flame. So we developed a doubled jet burner for high loading combustion. The doubled jet burner was designed to make the scale of the flame small by the effect of impingement and increasing shear stress with doubled jet. We investigated the turbulence characteristics of unburned mixture and visualized several flames with the typical schlieren photography. Then we studied the influence of several factors that related the scale of flame. Consequently, the doubled jet burner can make the eddy very small. And we can obtain the detail information of the flame scale through ADSF(the Average Distance between Successive Fringes) in the micro- schlieren photography. The ADSF is not a exact flame scale, but it has qualitative trend with increasing turbulent intensity. The ADSF is diminished remarkably with increasing turbulent intensity. The reason is that strong turbulent intensity makes the flame zone thick and flamelets numerous. We can confirm this fact by the signal analysis of ion currents.

풀화재에서 화염화염진동은 주위공기와의 밀도차에 의한 부력효과에 기인하여 주로 발생한다. 본 연구는 풀화재의 화염불안정성에 대해 산화제 유속 및 농도 변화에 따른 효과를 검토하기 위하여 컵버너 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과는 산화제의 농도를 변화시켰을 경우에는 산화제의 불활성기체의 농도가 증가할수록 청염의 길이가 길어지고 컵버너 끝단으로부터 부상되는 것이 관찰된다. 한편, 산화제의 유속이 증가함에 따른 진동주파수가 감소함을 보인다. 이는 무차원 변수로 표현되는 주파수와 부력의 관계로 도시하였을 때 다양한 속도스케일을 사용할 수 있었지만, 연료와 산화제의 유속차로 정의되는 특성속도인 경우에 정지되어 있는 공기중에서의 풀화재 진동과 일치하는 관계식을 얻을 수 있었다. 그리고 진동주파수는 산화제 희석율과는 특정한 관계를 보이지 않는데 이는 국부적 화염구조와 연관성을 가지기 때문으로 판단된다.

Flow velocity was measured using a hot wire anemometer. Turbulence intensity was in proportion to mean flow velocity regardless of swirl velocity. And integral length scale has proportional relation with swirl velocity regardless of measurement position. Flame speed calculated by radius of visualized flame was increased and then decreased according to lapse of time from spark. Maximum flame speed was increased according to increase of turbulence intensity. Burning speed and flame transport effect increased with increase of swirl velocity, but ratio of burning speed to flame speed decreased with increased of swirl velocity. Mass fraction burned versus volume fraction burned was increased in proportion to the increase of turbulence intensity, caused by increase of combustion promotion effect according to increase of turbulence intensity and scale.

A lot of research on the stability of nonpremixed flames has focused on the fuel-nozzle and quarl geometries. Of the work carried out, only a small amount has focused on the stability of the nonpremixed flame according to the recession distance and air-nozzle geometry. Therefore, in this study, a coaxial-diffusion-type gas burner with a swirler is designed for the systematic investigation of the combustion characteristics of a $CH_4$ flame depending on the recession distance and secondary air-nozzle geometry. 1st air is flowed through the swirler, and 2nd air is flowed through each nozzle. It is shown that the secondary air velocity greatly influences the flame length and shape. There is an optimum recession distance for each nozzle for the best combustion efficiency. In this study, it is shown that the optimized recession distance is nearly half the outer diameter of the air-supply nozzle.

The swirl flow applied for high efficiency and reduction of emission such as NOx, CO in a gas turbine engine makes recirculation zone by shear layer in the combustion chamber. This recirculation zone influences a decreasing flame temperature and flame length by burned gas recirculation. Also it is able to suppress from instability in lean-premixed flame. In this study, it was found that the swirl flow field was characterized as function of swirl number using PIV measurement in dump combustor. As increasing swirl number, a change of flow field was presented and recirculation zone was shifted in the nozzle exit direction. Also turbulent intensity and turbulent length scale in combustor were decreased in combustion. It has shown reduction of eddies scale with swirl number increasing.

A mesoscale channel was designed to observe the flame stabilization at low strain rate conditions (< $10s^{-1}$). At this condition, the behavior of partially premixed flame was explored by changing a channel size and the oxygen ratio in the oxidant. In this work, experiment is conducted for propane case and it was compared with methane case of previous one. Conclusively, it can be observed that the strain rate of flame extinction and starting point of oscillation were varied with oxygen ratio. Moreover we can understand the effects of enhanced oxygen ratio of oxidant and flame behavior at low strain rate conditions.

Flame behaviors in meso-scale rectangular channels are largely influenced by heat recirculation through wall. In order to investigate the effects of wall thermal property on the heat recirculation and flame behaviors, meso-scale rectangular channels, of which upper and lower walls are made of quartz, stainless steel and silicon carbide and front and rear walls of quartz for flame visualization, were fabricated in this study. As a result, characteristic mixture velocities of propane-air flame, such as transition, stationary, and instability onset velocities, were measured for each channel and various mixture conditions. The results show that thermal conductivity has a close relationship to the characteristic velocities.

왕복식엔진에서 연소과정은 실린더내 유체유동에 지배되므로 최적조건의 엔진설계를 위해서는 실린더내 유체유동을 효과적으로 이용하는 것이 필요하다. 연소과정에 중요한 영향을 미치는 압축말기 연소실내 난류강도는 흡입과정시 생성된 유동의 에너지가 압축과정을 거치면서 작은 스케일의 에디(eddy)로 깨지면서 발생된다. 연소과정시 이러한 에디들은 초기화염생성을 촉진 시키고 화염전파속도를 증진시키는 역할을 함으로써 실린더내 유체유동에 대한 이해증진을위해 실린더내 평균속도 및 난류유동을 측정하는 연구들이 많이 진행되고 있다. 엔진유동은 매사이 클의 유동이 엄밀히 주기적인 운동을 하지 않고, 각 사이클의 유동이 비정상유동을 하며, 유동의 생성 및 소멸이 매우 짧은 특성을 가진다. 따라서 산란입자가 측정체적을 통과할 때 속도데이 터가 발생하는 LDV(laser Doppler velocimetry) 측정에 있어서 레이저빔의 산란광노이즈 감소와 산란입자의 효율적인 공급으로 데이터 발생률을 높이는 것이 어려운 점이다. 이 글에서는 엔진 유동의 LDV측정시 고려해야 할 문제점들, 실험장치구성, 그리고 데이터처리 방법과 주요측정 결과에 대해 본 연구팀에서 지금까지 수행한 연구결과를 토대로 하여 기술하고자 한다.

It is necessary to develope a high frequency diode laser sensor system based on the absorption spectroscopy for the measurement of temperature of the spray flame. DFB diode laser operating near $2.0{\mu}m$ was used to scan over selected $H_2O$ transitions near $1.9{\mu}m\;and\;2.2{\mu}m$, respectively. The measurement sensitivity at wide range of sweep frequency was evaluated using multi-pass cell containing $CO_2$ gas. This diode laser absorption sensor with high temporal resolution up to 10kHz was applied to measure the gas temperature in the spray flame region of liquid-gas 2-phase counter flow flame. The successful demonstration of time series temperature measurement in the spray flame gives us motivation of trying to establish non-intrusive temperature measurement method in the practical spray flame.
