The use of electromagnetic energy and non-equilibrium plasma for enhancing ignition and combustion stability is receiving increased attention recently. The conventional technologies have adapted the electrical devices to make the electromagnetic field, which resulted in various safety issues such as high-maintenance, additional high-cost system, electric shock and explosion. Therefore, an electrodeless microwave technology has an advantage for economic and reliability compared with conventional one because of no oxidation. However, the application of microwave has been still limited because of lack of interaction mechanism between flame and microwave. In this study, an experiment was performed with jet diffusion flames induced by microwaves to clarify the effect of microwave on the combustion stability and pollutant emissions. The results show that microwave induced flames enhanced the flame stability and blowout limit because of abundance of radical pool. However, NOx emission was increased monotonically with microwave intensity except 0.2 kW, and soot emission was reduced at the post flame region.

액체산소와 케로신을 사용하여 연료 과농 조건에서 작동하는 30 ton급 로켓엔진용 가스발생기를 개발하는 과정에서 사용된 동축 와류형 분사기의 산화제 post에 발생한 열손상에 대한 연구가 진행되었다. 분사기의 열손상을 방지하기 위해 분사기는 내부 혼합 방식을 유지하면서 recess를 증가시키고 재순환영역을 최소화하여 재순환영역에서의 화염형성을 억제하는 방향으로 재설계 되었다. 축소형 규모의 연소시험에서 이러한 재설계를 통해 연료 과농 가스발생기용 동축 와류형 분사기의 산화제 post 열손상을 방지할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Emission characteristics of NOx and CO with heat loss under high efficiency combustion conditions of $CH_4$/Air prmixed flame were examined numerically using detailed-kinetic chemistry. The one-dimensional combustor length was fixed 5cm, and the equivalence ratio was varied from 0.75 to 0.95. To consider the effects of heat loss on NOx and CO formation, the radiative heat loss rate and combined heat loss rate of conductive and convective heat transfer are included. The following conclusions were drawn. In order to reduce the NOx and CO emission level simultaneously, the temperature of product gases must be reduced under 1,800K as soon as possible but kept over 1,300K during the residence time which is needed to converge CO to $CO_2$.

Many electronic devices are powered by various rechargeable batteries such as lithium-ion recently, and occasionally the batteries undergo thermal runaway and cause fire, explosion, and other hazards. If a battery fire should occur in an electronic device of vehicle and aircraft cabin, it is important to quickly extinguish the fire and cool the batteries to minimize safety risks. Attempts to minimize these risks have been carried out by many researchers but the results have been still unsatisfied. Because most rechargeable batteries are operated on the ion state during charge and discharge of electricity and the combustion of ion state has big difference with normal combustion. Here we focused on the effect of ions including an electron during combustion process. The effects of an ionized fuel on the flame stability and the combustion products were experimentally investigated in the propane jet diffusion flames. The burner used in this experiment consisted of 7.5 mm diameter tube for fuel and the propane was ionized with th ionizer (SUNJE, SPN-11). The results show that toe overall flame stability and shape such as flame length has no significant difference even in the higher ion concentration. However the fuel ionization affects to the pollutant emissions such as NOx and soot. NOx and CO emissions measured in post flame region decreased by fuel ionization, especially high fuel velocity, i.e. high ion density. TGA analysis and morphology of soot by TEM indicates that the fuel ionization makes soot to be matured.

제트 혼합 반응기(JSR) 내의 NOx와 같은 배출물질을 예측하기 위해서 화학반응기 모델을 개발했다. 본 연구에서는 JSR에 대한 화학반응기 모델로서 two-PSR 모델이 채택되었다. CHEMKIN 코드와 4가지 NO 생성 메커니즘을 포함한 GRI 3.0 메탄-공기 연소 메커니즘을 이용해서 JSR내의 희박 예혼합 메탄-공기 연소의 NO 생성예측을 실시하였다. 모델의 검증을 위해서 계산된 결과를 Rutar의 실험 데이터와 비교하였다. NO 생성의 중요 파라미터와 4 가지 NO 경로의 기여도를 조사하였다. 화염 영역에서는 prompt 메커니즘이 주된 경로이고, 화염후영역에서는 Zeldovich 메커니즘이 주된 경로이다. 희박 예혼합 조건에서는 N2O 메카니즘이가 화염 및 화염후 영역 모두에서 중요한 경로이다.

The effect of post-heat treatment on the coating characteristics and the fatigue strength of the gas flame thermally sprayed Stellite alloy coatings on $0.35\%$ carbon steel were investigated. The fatigue fracture surfaces of the heat treated samples were observed using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy). For as-sprayed samples, there was considerable scattering in the fatigue life due to the presence of the pores in the coating. After the post-heat treatment to improve the microstructural characteristics of the coating layer, the fatigue strength of the specimens was greatly improved, increasing with increasing the coating thickness. For the specimens with the 0.3mm and 0.5mm thick coating, the fatigue cracks originated in the substrate region just below the interface. On the contrary, for the specimens with the 1.0mm thick coating, they nucleated at the pore within the coating, and the fatigue strength was 2.6 times higher than that of the substrate due to the high fatigue resistance of the coating.

리튬이온 배터리와 같은 충전식 배터리는 에너지의 저장장치로서 최근의 에너지 이용의 변화에 따라 크게 주목받고 있을 뿐 아니라 실제로 다양한 소형 전기기기 및 전기 자동차의 전기에너지 저장시스템으로 폭넓게 적용되고 있다. 하지만 리튬이온 배터리는 화재나 폭발 등의 위험성이 항상 존재하여 사용의 폭을 제한시키고 있다. 배터리화재가 일반적인 화재와의 다른 특성은 여러 가지가 있지만 그 중에 가연물질이 전해질에서 이온화 되어있다는 특성이다. 본 연구에서는 배터리 화재를 이해하기 위해서 양이온과 전자 등으로 이온화된 메탄 제트화염에서의 연소특성을 실험적으로 관찰하였다. 화염 형상 및 화염안전성은 현재의 실험조건에서는 연료 이온화 효과가 없었고, 제트화염 후류에서 측정한 CO와 NOx의 농도가 이온화연료에서 모두 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 이온화 메탄 연소특성의 파라미터 연구를 위하여 수치해석의 반응기구를 수소첨가의 형태로 단순화하여 이온화연료의 연소특성을 모사할 수 있는지에 대한 모델링 검토를 수행하였다. 연료 이온화의 영향으로 수소의 농도는 증가시키되 반응 후 온도는 일정함을 가정하여 모델링하면 실험결과와 일치하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The microexplosive combustion of a slurry droplet was investigated experimentally. The microexplosion has been approximately considered to be caused by pressure build-up in the shell and to be promoted by heterogeneous nucleation of liquid carrier, which is due to the suppression of evaporation and subsequent superheating of liquid carrier. To closely investigate the pressure build-up and the heterogeneous nucleation, the experiments were conducted in an electric combustor, of which temperature was controllable (400 K-900 K). And the effects of two aligned droplets on the interactive combustion and microexplosion were found in a hot post region of a flat flame burner. Transient internal temperature distributions for slurry droplets were measured. And the shell formation and the microexplosion of suspended A1/JP-8 and Al/n-heptane slurry droplets were examined with various surfactant concentrations (0.5-5 wt%) and solid loadings (10-50 wt.%). The microexplosion time of binary array of droplets was found to be less than that of the isolated droplet due to radiative interaction between droplets.
