비예혼합합화염과 예혼합화염의 화염응답특성을 속도섭동을 다양하게 변경하며 실험하였다. 연료로는 수소($H_2$)/메탄($CH_4$)을 50/50 %로 혼합한 혼합연료를 사용하였으며 산화제로는 공기를 사용하였다. OH 자발광(OH fluorescence)을 이용하여 화염이미지를 계측하였으며 PMT(Photo Multiplier Tube)를 이용하여 열 방출량을 계측하였다. 계측된 이미지는 MatLab 코드를 이용하여 수치화하였다. 예혼합화염의 결과에서는 진폭이 증가할수록 화염섭동이 증가하는 경향성을 보았으며 진폭에 따라서 화염전달 함수의 게인 값이 선형적인 거동을 하는 것을 관찰하였다. 비예혼합화염의 화염길이는 진폭이 증가할수록 짧아지는 것을 관찰하였고 게인 값은 진폭에 비선형적인 거동을 하는 것을 확인하였다.

After the Fukushima accident in 2011, there has been increased public concern about radioactive contamination of water resources through fallout in neighboring countries. However, there is still no available initial response system that can promptly detect radionuclides. The purpose of this research is to develop the most efficient gamma spectrometer to monitor radionuclides in an aquatic environment. We chose a thallium-doped sodium iodide (NaI(Tl)) scintillator readout with a silicon photo multiplier (SiPM) due to its compactness and low operating voltage. Three types of a scintillation detector were tested. One was composed of a scintillator and a photomultiplier tube (PMT) as a reference; another system consisted of a scintillator and an array of SiPMs with a light guide; and the other was a scintillator directly coupled with an array of SiPMs. Among the SiPM-based detectors, the direct coupling system showed the best energy resolution at all energy peaks. It achieved 9.76% energy resolution for a 662 keV gamma ray. Through additional experiments and a simulation, we proved that the light guide degraded energy resolution with increasing statistical uncertainty. The results indicated that the SiPM-based scintillation detector with no light guide is the most efficient design for monitoring radionuclides in an aquatic environment.
