Methane combustion over perovskite-type oxides prepared using the malic acid method was investigated. To enhance the catalytic activity, the perovskite oxides were modified by the substitution of metal into their A or B site. In addition, the reaction conditions, such as the temperature, space velocity, and partial pressure of the methane were varied to understand their effect on the catalytic performance. With the LaCoO3-type catalyst, the partial substitution of Sr or Ba into site A enhanced the catalytic activity in the methane combustion. With the LaBO3(B=Co, Fe, Mn, Cu)-type catalyst, the catalytic activities were exhibited in the order of Co>Fe Mn>Cu. Futhermore, the partial substitution of Co into site B enhanced the catalytic activity, whereas an excess amount of Co decreased the activity. The surface area and catalytic activity of the perovskite catalysts prepared using the malic acid method showed higher values than those prepared using the solid reaction method. The catalytic activity was enhanced with decreased methane concentration and with a decrease in the space velocity.

The objective of this study is the rapid bulk combustion of mixture in a constant volume chamber with a tiny sub-chamber. Some narrow passage holes were arranged to induce simultaneous multi-point ignition in the main chamber by jet of burned and unburned gases including radicals from the sub-chamber, and the equivalence ratios of pre-mixture in the main chamber and the sub-chamber were the same. The principal factors of the Radical Induced Auto-Ignition (RIAI) method are the diameter of the passage holes and the volume of sub-chamber. The relationship between the sub-chamber and diameter of passage hole was represented by the ratios of sub-chamber volume to passage hole volume. The ratios are non-dimensional coefficients for sub-chamber characteristics. As a result, the RIAI method reduced the combustion period, which expanded the lean limit in comparison with SI method.

금속 질산염과 urea를 사용하여 연소합성법에 의해 LaCrO3 분말을 제조하고, 용액의 pH를 HNO3와 NH4OH로 조절한 후, 용매의 가열방법에 따른 연소 생성물인 LaCrO3의 형상을 고찰하였다. 연소생성물의 수율은 용액의 pH에 의해 크게 좌우되었다. 용액의 pH가 0.7~4 사이에서는 90% 이상의 수율이 얻어졌으나, 5 이상 또는 0.5 이하의 pH에서는 수율이 크게 감소하였다. 한편, 연소생성물의 형상은 용액의 pH에 무관하였고 용액의 가열방법에 좌우되었다. 용액을 저항가열법으로 가열하여 연소반응시킨 경우의 분말은 미세한 일차입자들이 2차원적으로 연결된 응집체를 형성하고 있었으나, 마이크로파를 인가하여 가열한 경우에는 용액의 pH에 관계없이 미세한 LaCrO3 분말이 얻어졌다. BET 분석 결과, 마이크로파 가열에 의해 얻어진 입자의 비표면적은 25~32m2/g으로 저항가열법으로 가열한 경우의 10-14m2/g에 비해 더 큰 값을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 마이크로파에 의한 연소반응물의 균일한 가열이 연소생성물의 2차원적인 강항 응집체 형성을 억제할 수 있음을 보여 주었다.

Solid solutions of Ti$_{0.5}$Zr$_{0.5}$B$_2$were successfully synthesized and densified simultaneously from elemental reactants by the use of a field-activated, pressure-assisted synthesis method. The method involves the application of an electric current and mechanical pressure across reactant compacts to achieve combustion synthesis. Dense solid solutions with relative densities of up to 99% were produced and characterized by XRD, SEM, and EPMA methods. With a maximum measured temperature of 145$0^{\circ}C$ under a load of 86 MPa for 30 min, the desired dense solid solution wad synthesized.

Dense composites of titanium matrix and Al2O3 matrix with reinforcements of carbon or titanium carbide fibers were successfully fabricated by high-pressure self-combustion sintering method or combustion reacton under 30 MPa of uniaxial pressure with an aid of external heating in vaccum. It was found that the fibers were uniformly distributed in the matrix, and aligned in a phase perpendicular to the pressure axis. As a moel ratio of Ti/C or reaction time increased, the density of Ti-matrix composite increased Micro pores around fibers could be removed by using clean carbon fibers without sizing agent on their surface. The evolution of carbide fibers from carbon fibers was observed. The composition of the various phases around fibers were analyzed.

Detailed flame structures of the opposed flames formed for different oxidant compositions are studied numerically. The detailed chemical reactions are modeled by using the CHEMKIN code. Only the $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ are assumed to participate by absorbing the radiative energy while all other gases are assumed to be transparent. The discrete ordinates method and the narrow band based WSGGM with a gray gas regrouping technique are applied for modeling the radiative transfer through non-homogeneous and non-isothermal combustion gas mixtures generated by the opposed flow flames. The results show that the different radiation model can cause different results for flame structures and the WSGGM with gray gas regrouping is successful in modeling the opposed flames with non-gray gas mixture. The numerical results show that the increases in $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ compositions cause to reduce the flame temperature and the NO formation.

In this paper, we used Helmholtz solver based on 3D finite element method to quantitatively analyze the effects of change of gain, time delay and time delay spread, which are the main variables of flame transfer function, on combustion instability in gas turbine combustor. The effects of the variable of flame transfer function on the frequency and growth rate, which are the main results of combustion instability, were analyzed by applying the conventional heat release fluctuation model and modified one considering the time spread. The analysis results showed that the change of gain and time delay in the same resonance mode affected the frequency of the given resonance modes as well as growth rate of the feedback instability, however, the effect of time delay spread was not relatively remarkable, compared with the dominant effect of time delay.
