Significant real fluid behaviors including rapid property changes take place where high pressure combustion devices such as rocket engines. The flamelet model is the reliable approach to account for the real fluid effects. In the present study, the flamelet equations are extended to treat the general fluids over transcritical and supercritical states. The real fluid flamelet model is carried out for the gaseous hydrogen and cryogenic liquid oxygen flames at the wide range of thermodynamic conditions. Based on numerical results, the precise discussions are made for effects of real fluid, pressure, and differential diffusion on the local flame structure.

This study has numerically modelled the combustion processes of the turbulent swirling premixed lifted flames in the low-swirl burner (LSB). In these turbulent swirling premixed flames, the four tangentially-injected air jets induce the turbulent swirling flow which plays the crucial role to stabilize the turbulent lifted flame. In the present approach, the turbulence-chemistry interaction is represented by the level-set based flamelet model.. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional computations are made for the various swirl numbers and nozzle length. In terms of the centerline velocity profiles and flame liftoff heights, numerical results are compared with experimental data The three-dimensional approach yields the much better conformity with agreements with measurements without any analytic assumptions on the inlet swirl profiles, compared to the two-dimensional approach. Numerical clearly results indicate that the present level-set based flamelet approach has realistically simulated the. structure and stabilization mechanism of the turbulent swirling stoichiometric and lean-premixed lifted flames in the low-swirl burner.

We performed computational simulation for a heat recovery steam generator to predict emissions (especially carbon monoxide) and compare the results with experimental data. We used the steady laminar flamelet model(SLFM) which can consider detailed chemical mechanisms. To reduce the number of grid, we simplified the geometry of the whole heat recovery steam generator. In conclusion, the trend of simulation results is good agreement with experimental data.

The present study numerically investigate the effects of the Syngas chemical kinetics on the basic flame properties and the structure of the Syngas nonpremixed flames. In order to realistically represent the turbulencechemistry interaction and the spatial inhomogeneity of scalar dissipation rate, the Eulerian Particle Flamelet Model (EPFM) with multiple flamelets has been applied to simulate the combustion processes and NOx formation in the syngas turbulent nonpremixed flames. Validation cases include the Syngas turbulent nonpremixed jet and swirling flames. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussion has been made for the effects of the chemical kinetics, the flame structure, and NOx formation characteristics in the turbulent Syngas nonpremixed flames.

The present study is numerically investigated the flame structure of non-premixed counterflow jet flames using the laminar flamelet model Detailed flame structures with the fuel composition of 40% CO, 30% $H_2$. 30% $N_2$ and an oxidizer composition of 79% $N_2$ and 21% $O_2$ in a non-premixed counterflow flame are studied numerically. This study is aimed to investigate the effects of axial velocity gradient and combustion atmosphere pressure on flame structure. The results show that the role of axial velocity gradient on combustion processes is globally opposite to that of combustion atmosphere pressure. That is, chemical nonequilibrium effects become dominant with increasing axial velocity gradient, but are suppressed with increasing ambient pressure. Also, the flame strength is globally weakened by the increase of axial velocity gradient but is augmented by the increase of ambient pressure. However, flame extinction is described better on the basis of only chemical reaction and in this study axial velocity gradient and ambient pressure play a similar role conceptually such that the increase of axial velocity gradient and ambient pressure cause flame not to be extinguished and extend the extinction limit, respectively. Consequently it is suggested that a combustion process like flame extinction is mainly influenced by the competition between the radical formation reaction and the third-body recombination reaction.

The full transport equation approach for laminar non-premixed flame with detailed chemistry, soot and radiation has an advantage in accuracy and describing for emission pathway, but this approach requires the excessive computational cost especially for a higher-order hydrocarbon fuel flames. On the other hand, the standard flamelet model has an efficiency and accuracy for non-premixed flame, though this model is not suitable for simulating slow processor like soot and radiation in laminar non-premixed flame situation. To overcome this limitation, modified transient flamelet model is developed which coupled with two-equation soot model involved in soot formation and evolution mechanism such as nucleation, surface growth, oxidation and agglomeration.

The present study is focused on the subgrid scale combustion model in context with a Large Eddy Simulation. In order to deal with detailed chemical kinetic, the level-set method based on a flamelet model is addressed. In this model, the flame front is treated as an interface, represented by an iso-surface of a scalar field G. This iso-surface is convected by the velocity field and its filtered quantities are include the turbulent burning velocity, which is to be modelled. For modelling the turbulent burning velocity, an equation for the length-scale of the sub-filter flame front fluctuations was developed. The formulations and issues for the turbulent premixed and partially premixed flames are addressed in detail.

본 연구에서는 액체로켓 분사기에서 임계압력 이상의 추진제의 혼합과 연소과정을 수치적으로 모사하여 분석하고자 하였다. 이 과정에서 확장된 $k-{\varepsilon}$ 난류 모델을 이용하여 난류 속도장을 예측하였고 고압에서의 실제 유체 효과를 고려하기 위하여 혼합 추진제의 물성치는 SRK 상태 방정식을 이용하여 계산하였다. 또한 난류 확산 화염에서의 좀 더 정확한 난류와 화학반응의 상호작용을 고려하기 위하여 실제 유체 효과를 고려할 수 있는 층류 화염편 모델을 이용하였다. 수치적인 계산을 바탕으로 이상기체 가정을 사용한 결과와 비교하여 실제 유체의 효과와 기체메탄/액체산소 동축 전단 분사기의 제트화염 구조를 상세하게 살펴보았다.

This study has been mainly motivated to numerically model the transcritical mixing and reacting flow processes encountered in the liquid propellant rocket engines. In the present approach, turbulence is represented by the extended k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model. To account for the real fluid effects, the propellant mixture properties are calculated by using SRK (Souve-Redlich-Kwong) equation of state model. In order to realistically represent the turbulence-chemistry interaction in the turbulent non-premixed flames, the flamelet approach based on the real fluid flamelet library has been adopted. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussions are made for the real fluid effects and the precise structure of the transcritical cryogenic liquid nitrogen jet and gaseous hydrogen/liquid oxygen coaxial jet flame.

3개의 난류모델과 3개의 연소모델로 구성된 9개의 모델조합을 이용하여 난류 부분예혼합 제트화염 구조에 대한 수치적 예측성능을 검토하였다. 이용된 난류모델은 표준 ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ 모델(SKE), Realizable ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ 모델(RKE) 및 Reynolds 응력모델(RSM)이며 연소모델들은 Eddy Dissipation Concept 모델(EDC), Steady Laminar Flamelet 모델(SLF)와 Unsteady Laminar Flamelet 모델(ULF)이다. 9개 모델조합의 예측성능을 평가하기 위하여 실험결과가 알려진 Sandia D 화염인 난류 부분예혼합 제트화염을 대상으로 수치계산을 수행하였다. 얻어진 결과로서, 화염길이의 예측은 RSM > SKE > RKE순으로 길게 예측하였으며, RKE 난류모델은 화염길이를 너무 과소 예측하는 것을 확인하였다. RSM + SLF과 RSM + ULF의 조합은 화염길이는 비교적 잘 예측하였지만 하류에서의 화염온도를 과대 예측하였다. 반면에 SKE와 연소모델의 조합에서 SLF 또는 ULF 조합은 화염길이 뿐만 아니라 하류에서의 화염온도도 비교적 잘 예측하였는 것을 확인하였다. 반경방향 화염온도 및 화학종 농도분포를 비교해 본 결과 SKE와 연소모델의 조합이 가장 예측성능이 뛰어났으며 SKE + ULF의 조합이 가장 우수한 예측성능을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.
