Transient mixing states of two different fuel oils, dimethylformamide (DMF) oil and JetA1 oil, were investigated by using a color image processing and a neural network. A tank ($D{\times}H$, $310{\times}370mm$) was filled with JetA1 oil. The DMF oil was filled at a top tank, and was mixed with the JetA1 oil in the tank mixing tank via a sudden opening which was performed by nitrogen gas with 1.9 bar. An impeller was rotated with 700 rpm for mixing enhancements of the two fuel oils. To visualize the mixing state of the DMF oil with the JetA1 oil, the DMF oil was coated with Rhodamine B whose color was red. A LCD monitor was used for uniform illumination. The color changes of the DMF oil were captured by a camcoder and the images were transferred to a host computer for quantifying the information of color changes. The color images of two mixed oils were captured with the camcoder. The R, G, B color information of the captured images was used to quantify the concentration of the DMF oil. To quantify the concentration of the DMF oil in the JetA1 oil, a calibration of color-to-concentration was carried out before the main experiment was done. Transient mixing states of DMF oil with the JetA1 oil since after the sudden infiltration were quantified and characterized with the constructed visualization technique.

스크램제트의 연소실 내부로 유입되는 공기의 속도는 초음속으로 체류 시간은 수 ms로 매우 짧다. 이 짧은 시간 안에 연료분사, 공기-연료 혼합, 연소과정이 모두 이루어져야 한다. 공기와 연료의 혼합을 증대하는 방법은 여러 가지가 제시되었다. 이중 자유류 마하수 2.5의 단일분사 방법에서의 cavity를 이용한 혼합증대 특성을 알아보기 위해 수치해석을 수행하였다. 사용된 코드는 동일조건의 실험결과와 비교하여 검증하였고 이를 통해 Cavity에 의한 혼합증대 특성을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper describes numerical efforts to characterize the flame-holding and air-fuel mixing process of model SCRamjet engine combustor, where a hydrogen jet injected into a supersonic cross flow and in a cavity. Combustion phenomena in a model SCRamjet engine, which has been experimentally studied at University of Queensland and Australian National University using a free-piston shock tunnel, was observed around separation region of upstream of the normal injector and inside of cavity. The results show that the separation region and cavity generates several recirculation zones, which increase the fuel-air mixing. Self ignition occurs in the separation-freestream and cavity-freestream interface.

Experimental and computational studies were carried out to confirm the turbulent enhancement of the cooling system of nuclear reactor by large scale vortex generation in nuclear fuel bundle. The large scale vortex motions were generated by rearranging the inclination angles of mixing vanes to the coordinate directions. Axial development of mean and turbulent velocities in the subchannels were measured by the 2-color LDV system. Eddy diffusivity heat flux model and $k-varepsilon$ model were employed to analyze the turbulent heat and fluid flows in the subchannel. The turbulence generated by split mixing vanes has small length scales so that they maintain only about $10 D_H$ after the spacer grid. On the other hand, the turbulences generated by the large scale vortex continue more and remain up to $25 D_H$after the spacer gird.

In this paper, works related to enhancement of the CHF are reviewed in terms of fundamental mechanisms and practical applications. Studies on CHF enhancement in forced convection are divided into two categories, CHF enhancement of internal flow in tubes and enhancement of CHF in the nuclear fuel bundle. Methods of enhancing the CHF of internal flows in tubes include enhancement of the swirl flow using twisted tapes, a helical coil, and a grooved surface; promotion of flow mixing using a hypervapotron; altering the characteristics of the heated surface using porous coatings and nano-fluids; and changing the surface tension of the fluid using additives such as surfactants. In the fuel bundle, mixing vanes or wire wrapped rods can be employed to enhance the CHF by changing the flow distributions. These methods can be applied to practical heat exchange systems such as nuclear reactors, fossil boilers, fusion reactors, etc.

This paper investigates the effects of acoustic forcing on NOx emissions and mixing process in the near field region of turbulent hydrogen nonpremixed flames. The resonance frequency was selected to force the coaxial air jet acoustically, because the resonance frequency is effective to amplify the forcing amplitude and reduce NOx emissions. When the resonance frequency is acoustically excited, a streamwise vortex is formed in the mixing layer between the coaxial air jet and coflowing air. As the vortex develops downstream, it entrains both ambient air and combustion products into the coaxial air jet to mix well. In addition, the strong vortex pulls the flame surface toward the coaxial air jet, causing intense chemical reaction. Acoustic excitation also causes velocity fluctuations of coaxial air jet as well as fuel jet but, the maximum value of centerline fuel velocity fluctuation occurs at the different phases of $\Phi$=$180^{\circ}$ for nonreacting case and $\Phi$=$0^{\circ}$ for reacting case. Since acoustic excitation enhances the mixing rate of fuel and air, the line of the stoichiometric mixture fraction becomes narrow. Finally, acoustic forcing at the resonance frequency reduces the normalized flame length by 15 % and EINOx by 25 %, compared to the flame without acoustic excitation.

PSP는 산소��칭원리에 의해 모델표면의 전역적 압력정보를 측정할 수 있는 기법이다. 본 연구는 자유류 마하수 2.5에서 수직 제트 분사와 Cavity를 이용한 스크램제트의 연소실 내부에서의 공기와 연료의 혼합 특성을 알아보기 위해 PSP를 사용하여 표면압력을 측정하였다. 그 결과 Cavity의 크기가 커질수록 공기-연료의 혼합정도가 커지는 것을 알 수 있었다.. 또한 CFD와 압력공을 이용하여 측정 압력값을 비교하였다. 그 결과 충격파의 형태 및 전단경계층의 두께 변화 등의 정성적 결과가 모두 일치하였으며, 압력측정 결과 약간의 오차는 발생하였으나 3D Bow Shock이 위치한 지점에서의 압력 및 Vorticity가 크게 나타나는 경향성이 모두 일치하였다.

마하 2의 초음속 풍동 장치에서 벤트 혼합기를 사용하여 혼합 연소실험을 수행하였다. 혼합실험에서는 헬륨을 사용하였고, 연소실험에서는 수소와 플라즈마 토치를 사용하여 연소 특성을 연구하였다. 혼합실험에서는 벤트 혼합기에 의해 수직분사임에도 불구하고 후류 혼합층에 많은 연료가 잔존하였다. 연소 실험의 경우 낮은 온도의 초음속 유동에서 플라즈마 토치를 사용한 점화와 연소되지 않은 연료-공기 혼합물의 충격파 유도 연소가 후류 영역에서 발생하였다. 열질식이 일어난 경우, shock train이 발생하며 이는 연소기내 연소 불안정성을 유도한다.

Hot-firing tests were performed to experimentally confirm the effect of the eigenmode in the fuel-air mixing section on combustion instability by changing mixing section length, inlet mean velocity, equivalence ratio, and swirler geometry. A premixed gas composed of air and ethylene was supplied to the combustion chamber through an mixing section and an axial swirler. As the mixing section length increased, the inlet velocity perturbation decreased, but the combustion instability increased more. It was found that the resonance frequency of the first longitudinal mode in the mixing section shifted to the third longitudinal mode as the length of the mixing section increased. The results implied that the transition of the resonace frquency by changing the length of the mixing section might cause combustion instability.

단일 분사 노즐을 갖는 연소기 내부의 혼합과정에 대한 이해를 바탕으로 연료 분사 노즐을 이중으로 갖는 연소기의 혼합과정에 대한 수치연구를 수행하였다. 수치연구를 위하여 3차원 Navier-Stokes 방정식과 k-$\omega$ SST난류 모델을 이용하여 연료 이중 분사 유동을 모사하였다. 이중 분사구 사이의 거리 변화에 따른 혼합특성의 변화를 살펴보기 위하여 파라메터 연구를 수행하였다. 연료 이중 수직분사에서 두 분사기의 유동 및 혼합특성은 서로 상당히 다른 경향을 보이며, 후방 분사기의 유동 및 혼합특성은 전방 분사류의 영향을 받아 더 크게 팽창하고 침투거리가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 어떤 특정 거리가 되기 전까지 분사기 사이의 거리가 증가할수록 전체적인 혼합률과 침투거리가 증가하는 등 혼합특성이 개선되지만, 특정 거리보다 크게되면 오히려 혼합특성이 악화되는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 이중분사기에서 최적인 혼합특성을 위한 두 분사기 사이의 거리가 존재함을 의미하는 것으로 판단된다.
