The characteristics of combustion and flow for a lean premixed flame in lab-scale gas turbine combustor was studied through experiment and numerical analysis. From the experiment, flame structure and heat release rate were obtained from OH emission spectroscopy. Qualitative comparisons were made line-integrated OH chemiluminescence image and abel-transformed one. NOx analyzer was implemented to get the characteristic of NOx exhaust from the combustor. From the numerical analysis, the thermal distribution and characteristic of recirculation zone with the change of fuel-air mixing degree, the characteristic of methane distribution with equivalence ratio in the combustor respectively. Total heat release rate is increased with increasing equivalence ratio. Thermal Nox is reduced with increasing fuel-air mixing degree. Increasing equivalence ratio results in the decrease of the size of reaction zone and alteration of the position of the reaction zone into the entrance of the combustor.

The influence of eccentric(=staggeredness) ratio between stationary upstream circular cylinders on heat transfer characteristics of a heated downstream circular cylinder installed in a channel was investigated experimentally. In order to enhance the heat transfer rate of the heated downstream cylinder surface, we have changed the configuration of upstream cylinder. As a result, we were able to obtain local time-averaged convective heat transfer enhancement of the heated cylinder by the relative replacement of upstream cylinder. This is basically attributed to the mean flow structure change, such as flow separation, vortex shedding, and recirculation of the upstream cylinder including the reattachment and new thermal boundary developed at the downstream cylinder which are the results of the increase of the staggeredness ratio.

In the iron and steel manufacturing, sintering process precedes blast furnace to prepare feed materials by agglomerating powdered iron ore to form larger particles. There are several techniques which have devised to improve sintering production and productivity including flue gas recirculation(FGR) and additive gas enriched operation. The application of those techniques incurs variations of process configurations as well as inlet and outlet gas conditions such as temperature, composition, and flow rate which exert direct influence on reactions in the bed or the operation of the entire plant. In this study, an approach of sintering bed modeling using flowsheet process simulator was devised in consideration of FGR and the change of incoming and outgoing gas conditions. Results of modeling for both normal and FGR sintering process were compared in terms of outgoing gas temperature, concentration, and moisture distribution pattern as well as incoming gas conditions. It is expected to expand the model for various process configurations with FGR, which may provide the usefulness for design and operation of sintering plant with FGR.

The effects of high pressure and low pressure exhaust gas recirculation (HP/LP EGR) portion on diesel engine combustion and emissions characteristics were investigated in a 2.2 L passenger-car diesel engine. The po3rtion of HP/LP EGR was varied from 0 to 1 while fixing the mass flow rate of fresh air. The intake manifold temperature was lowered with the increasing of the portion of LP EGR, which led to the retardation of heat release by pilot injection. The lowered intake manifold temperature also resulted in low nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions due to decreased in-cylinder temperature and prolonged ignition delay, however, the carbon monoxide (CO) emission showed opposite trend to NOx emissions. The brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) was decreased as the portion of LP EGR increased due to lowered exhaust manifold pressure by wider open of turbocharger vane. Consequently, the trade-off relationship between NOx and BSFC could be improved by increasing the LP EGR portion.

Heat transfer from three-dimensional heat-generating modules was investigated. A simulated electronic module in an array configured with dummy module elements was used to measure the average heat transfer coefficients. Various module arrangements were tested using module spacings of 0.85 and 1.15 cm for six Reynolds numbers ranging from 500 to 975. The results show that a module placed in-line with and upstream of a heated module results in the heat transfer enhancement due to a high level in turbulence prompted by upstream modules. The highest enhancement occurs when the separation distance between modules is close to the module length in the flow direction. Flow visualization reveals laminar flow on the front of the first module, slow recirculation regions on the sides parallel to the air stream, and turbulence on the back side. It appears that the first module serves to trip the air stream and produce a high level of turbulence, which enhances the heat transfer rate downstream.

A two-dimensional continuum model for the hydrogen mining phenomena in the containment subcompartment under severe accident conditions has been developed to predict the spatial distribution of the hydrogen concentration. The model can predict the distribution of time-dependent hydrogen concentration for HEDL experiments well. For the simulation of these experiments, the hydrogen is mixed uniform within the test compartment. To predict the extent of non-uniform distribution, the dominant factors such as the geometrical shape of obstacle and velocity of source injection in mixing phenomena are investigated. If the obstacle disturbing the flow of gas mixture exists in the compartment, the uniform distribution of hydrogen might be not guaranteed. The convective circulation of gas flow is separately formed up and down of the obstacle position, which makes a difference of hydrogen concentration between the upper and lower region of the compartment. The recirculation flow must have a considerable mass flow rate relative to velocity of the source injection to sustain the well-mixed conditions of hydrogen. Finally, in order to account for non-uniform distribution of the hydrogen due to the geometrical configuration the maximum-to-average ratio is functionalized.

Emission characteristics of nitric oxides and carbon monoxide from a porous media combustor has been experiment studied. The relationship between the change of flame shape and emission has also been examined. As the equivalence ratio decreases, the flame shape on the ceramic matrix plate changes from a diffusion flame, R(radiant)-type flame, to B(Blue)-type flame. With large fuel flow rate, R-type flame turns to be two dimensional R-II type flame around the equivalence of 0.7. Carbon monoxide emission increases very rapid with decreasing equivalence ratio. It changes a lot from some 10 ppm to 100-10,000 ppm with the change of flame type from R-I to R-II type. Nitric oxide emission from the premixed burner is less than 25 ppm over all range of fuel flow rate, which is less than 20% of NOx emission from conventional gas burners.

In automotive air handling system, mixing of air streams by the cooler and the heater affects the comfort of cabin room. In the present study, computer-aided analysis is done to improve the thermal comfort and for the optimal design of automotive HVAC system. The simulation software used was FLUENT, and complicate geometries were created by three dimensional CAD. Air flow volume, fir distribution rate and temperature controllability and temperature differences between upper and lower discharge air are analyzed through numerical simulation at vent, floor and defrost mode. Also, velocity vector of sirocco fan is investigated through the scroll housing. The velocity vector magnitude is larger at lower region of fan than that at any other regions. Recirculation and disturbance of air is relatively high near the cut-off edge in the scroll housing. By using the results of this study, the time for prototype production can be reduced and timely decisions can be made to determine initial design directions.
