Oxy-fuel flame has a significantly different structure from that of air-fuel flame because of its high temperature. This study is aimed to find out the difference of the oxy-fuel flame structure in order to understand reaction mechanism closely, which is crucial to design real-scale oxy-fuel combustion system. By examining pictures of counterflow flame and LIF images, we found that oxy-fuel flame had two-zone structure: fuel decomposition region and distributed CO oxidation region. In the oxy-fuel flame, OH radical was distributed intensely through the whole flame due to its higher flame temperature than crossover temperature. For showing those features of the oxy-fuel flame, 1 MW scale IFRF oxy-natural gas burner was simulated by conditional moment closure(CMC) model. Calculation results were compared with experimental data, and showed agreements in trend. In the simulated distributions of fuel decomposition/CO oxidation rates, CO oxidation region was also separated from fuel decomposition zone considerably, which showed the two-zone structure in the oxy-fuel flame.

층류 비예혼합 분류 화염에서 다양한 주파수와 강도로 외부에서 유동장에 자극을 주었을 때 화염의 배출특성과 거동에 대해서 실험적으로 조사하였다. 먼저 일정한 관 공명 주파수에서 가진 강도를 가변시켜 난류화염 된 부상화염에서 질소산화물 배출 지수($EINO_x$)를 측정하였다. 또한, 가진 강도가 일정한 상태에서 주파수를 0 Hz에서 높은 주파수인 2 KHz까지 다양한 주파수 조건으로 가진된 한 경우에도 질소산화물의 배출지수를 측정하였다. 큰 가진 강도의 관공명 주파수로 가진된 경우 부상된 난류화염에서 $NO_x$ 배출 특성은 다음과 같이 크게 세 가지 형태의 특성을 보였다. Group I의 화염에서는 공간적인 섭동이 크며 비교적 화염길이가 길고 높은 $NO_x$ 배출 특성을 보였으며 Group II에서는 상대적으로 짧은 길이와 좁은 폭의 화염거동에 낮은 $NO_x$배출 특성을 보였다. Group III에서는 약간 긴 화염길이에 매우 큰 화염체적으로 상당한 높이까지 시ㆍ공간적으로 섭동이 큰 운동양태로 부상되는 거동과 가장 높은 $NO_x$ 배출 특성을 보였다.

The relationship among the flame radiation, NOx emissions, residence time, and global strain rate are examined for turbulent non-premixed jet flames with wide variations in coaxial air conditions. Measurements of NOx emission, flame geometry and flame radiation were made to explain the NOx emission scaling based on global parameters such as flame residence time, global strain rate, and radiant fraction. The overall 1/2-power scaling is observed in coaxial air flames, irrespective of coaxial air conditions, but the degree of deviation from the 1/2-slope curve in each case differs from one another. From the comparison between the results of pure hydrogen flames and those of helium diluted hydrogen flames, it is observed that flame radiation plays a significant role in pure hydrogen flames with coaxial air and the deviation from 1/2-power scaling may be explained in two reasons: the difference in the flame radiation and the difference in jet similarity in coaxial air flames. From the radiation measurements, more detailed explanations on these deviations were suggested.

동축공기 수소 난류 확산화염에서 선회류가 NOx에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 공기와의 혼합을 증가시키기 위해 동축공기관에 스월러의 각도를 30, 45, 60, $90^{\circ}$로 바꾸어가며 화염길이와 질소산화물 배출수준을 측정하였다. 연료 속도를 85.7~160.2 m/s, 동축공기 속도는 7.4~14.4 m/s로 조절하였다. 실험을 통해 동축 공기 속도 증가에 따라 화염길이와 질소산화물 배출수준은 증가하였고, 회전류 증가에 따라 감소함을 관찰하였다. EINOx에 미치는 동축공기와 회전류 영향을 상사하기 위하여 far-field 개념의 유효직경($d_{F,eff}$)을 도입하여 동축공기와 선회류에 의한 혼합효과를 표현하였다. 질소산화물 배기배출지표는 화염체류시간(${\sim}{\tau_R}^{1/2.8}$)과 전체 신장률(${\sim}{S_G}^{1/2.8}$)에 영향을 받았다.

The purpose of this study is to verify that the modified Lagrangian model can predict temperature, flow and scalar fields in the high temperature recirculation region of swirling confined diffusion flame. In the meantime numerical results from EBU and Equilibrium PDF models as well as experimental results are compared with those from the modified Lagrangian model. Adaption of three different turbulent models were accompanied with this procedure. Look-up table of the ignition characteristic time scale which is one of important factors of the Lagrangian model was referred to the 11-step reduced mechanism. Eventually, results with the Lagrangian model show a good accordance with experimental results, which shows the validity of this model. Results from Chen's model differ from those of the others. Numerical results of ${\widetilde{k}$ show significant deviation from experimental results for three models.

The effects of acoustic excitation of coaxial air on mixing enhancement and reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission were investigated. A compression driver was attached to the coaxial air supply tube to impose excitation. Measurements of NOx emission with frequency sweeping were performed to observe the trend of NOx emission according to the fuel and air flow conditions and to inquire about the effective excitation frequency for reducing NOx. Then, Schlieren photographs were taken to visualize the flow field and to study the effect of excitation. In addition, phase-locked particle image velocimetry (PIV) was performed to acquire velocity field for each case and to investigate the effect of vortices more clearly. Direct photographs and OH chemiluminescence photographs were taken to study the variation of flame length and reaction zone. It was found that acoustic forcing frequencies close to the resonance frequencies of coaxial air supply tube could reduce NOx emission. This NOx reduction was influenced by mixing enhancement due to large-scale vortices formed by fluctuation of coaxial air jet velocity.

Two and Three dimensional numerical simulations have been carried out to understand the combustion characteristics of LNG-fueled gas turbine combustor for power generation. Focus of the study was given to the influences of different fuel composition of imported and domestic natural gases with the flow conditions selected from the gas turbine operation data. Reacting flow characteristics of the swirl stabilized natural gas combustor were understood from the comparison of the two-dimensional and three-dimensional results. The thermal influences of different natural gases were very small and the fuel composition and flow rate were considered to be tuned well.

Numerical analysis code has been developed for investigating the combustion characteristics in a slab heater of a steel mill company. Unsteady full 3-Dimensional behaviour can be predicted with the code. Premixed flame model is adopted for combustion phenomena. And eddy dissipation model is used for turbulent flow and non gray FVM method for radiation. Slab movement can be fully traced from entrance into heater until it's exit and computation is performed during that period. Code was validated by comparing the calculation results with experimental ones for the bench scale heater.

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.

Numerical analysis code has been developed to investigate the slab heating characteristics in a reheating furnace of a steel mill company. Unsteady 3-Dimensional behaviour can be predicted with the developed code. Premixed flame model is adopted for combustion phenomena and eddy dissipation model is used for turbulent combustion. Non -gray FVM radiation method is used to get a better accurate radiative solution. Slab movement can be fully traced from entrance into a reheating furnace until it#s exit and computation is performed during that period.
