Various flame types are observed in a double concentric burner by varying equivalence ratio and flow rates in each tube. Observed flame types include bunsen-type flame, ring-shaped flame, outer lifted flame, inner lifted flame, and oscillatory lifted flame, The doman of existence of various flames is mapped with equivalence ratio and annular jet velocity. Each flame is investigated through direct photography and OH PLIF. As central air velocity increase, the blowout region is diminished and lifted oscillating flames are observed. Inner lifted flames are observed from bunsen flames or rich shaped flames by increasing central air velocity. For inner lifted flames, annular jet velocity, at flame liftoff decreases with increasing central air jet velocity. Axial velocity profile and temperature fie이 using LDV and CRS, respectively, for a typical inner lifted flame are also measured through which the role of tribrachial flame for stabilization in emphasized.

Downstream interactions between lean premixed flames with mutually different fuels of syngas and $CH_4$ have been numerically investigated particularly on and near lean extinction limits. The interaction characteristics between lean premixed (50% $H_2$ + 50% CO)-air and $CH_4$-air flames were shown to be quite different from those between the same hydrocarbon flames. The lean extinction boundaries were of slanted shape, thereby implying strong interactions. The weaker flames had negative flame speeds on the upper extinction boundaries, whereas the weaker flame speeds on the lower extinction boundaries were both negative and positive. The results also showed that the flame interaction characteristics did not follow the general tendency with the dependency of Lewis number in downstream interactions between the same hydrocarbon flames. Importance of chemical interaction in flame characteristics is discussed in the downstream interactions between lean premixed (50% $H_2$ + 50% CO)-air and $CH_4$-air flames.

The propagation rates ($U_{edge}$) of various premixed edge-flames were measured as a function of global strain rate (${ \sigma}$), mixture strength, and Lewis number (Le). Using a counterflow slot-jet burner with electrical heaters at each end, both advancing (positive $U_{edge}$) and retreating (negative $U_{edge}$) edges can be studied as they propagate along the long dimension of the burner. Preliminary results are presented for single and twin premixed hydrocarbon edge-flames in terms of the effects on $U_{edge}$. A low-${\sigma}$ extinction limit has been discovered for all mixtures tested but further analysis is necessary for full characterization since sufficiently $high-{\sigma}$ leads to an apparent stability limit. Propagation rates clearly show a strong dependence on Le. Future work will focus on completing the premixed hydrocarbon edge-flame analysis and include investigations into non-premixed edge-flames and edge-flames composed of fuels such as hydrogen ($H_2$) with significantly lower Le.

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.

Numerical simulations of unsteady opposed-flow flames are performed using an adaptive time integration method designed for differential-algebraic systems. The compressibility effect is considered in deriving the system of equations, such that the numerical difficulties associated with a high-index system are alleviated. The numerical method is implemented for systems with detailed chemical mechanisms and transport properties by utilizing the Chemkin software. Two test simulations are performeds hydrogen/air diffusion flames with an oscillatory strain rate and transient ignition of methane against heated air. Both results show that the rapid transient behavior is successfully captured by the numerical method.

The flamelet concept has been widely applied to numerically simulate complex phenomena occurred in nonpremixed turbulent flames last two decades, and recently broadened successfully the applicable capabilities to various combustion problems from simple laboratory flames to gas turbine engine, diesel spray combustion and partially premixed flames. The paper is focused on brief review of recently noticeable work related to flamelet modeling, which includes Lagrangian flamelet approach, RIF concept as well as steady flamelet approach. The limitation of steady flamelet assumption, the effect of transient behavior of flamelets, and the effect of spray vaporization on PDF model have been discussed.

본 연구에서는 화염간 상호 작용을 해석함으로써 정의 적용에 있어서의 적절 성과 유용성을 검토 하고 화염간 상호 작용 특성을 밝히기 위하여, 해석의 대상은 화 염간의 상호작용을 명확히 관찰할 수 있는 두 개의 평행한 사각 덕트형 노즐로부터 분 출되는 기체연료에 의해 형성 되는 두 개의 동등한 3차원 제트 난류 확산화염을 택한 다. 2-화염계는 상호작용 화염군의 기본 단위이며, 현재까지 원형제트 화염에 비하 여 3차원제트 화염에 대한 연구는 많지 않은 실정이다. 연구의 방법으로는 이론적 모델링과 수치해석을 통한 모의 실험에 중점을 두고 부분적인 실험으로 타당성을 점검 한다.이는 기존의 연구들이 대부분 실험적인 것들이거나 간단한 해석적 모델을 사 용한 것들이어서 상호 작용하의 화염 특성을 예측할 수 있는 수치 해석적 모델의 개발 이 필요하며, 또한 기존의 연구들이 온도나 성분만을 측정함으로서 유동장에서의 운동 량 전달의 상호작용 특성이 자세히 연구되지 못했으므로, 이를 위해서는 난점이 있는 속도 측정의 실험적 방법보다 수치해석적 접근법이 필요하기 때문이다. 이상과 같이 본연구는 상술한 정의를 적용해 보고 이에따라 화염간 상호작용의 특성을 파악하며 이 를 예측할 수 있는 이론적 모델을 개발하는 것을 목적으로 한다.

The control of flame shapes in a laminar pre-mixed flame has been experimentally investigated for propane/air pre-mixed laminar flames. Flames of different size and shapes are observed with heated wires or by controlling the equivalence ratio and flow rate of a mixture. The characteristics of the partitioning of a flame or the merge of flames are analyzed and explained by considering the balance between laminar flame speed and upstream mixture velocity. A combustor might be sized down while maintaining its heat production rate the same by partitioning a flame established in it. When the equivalence ratio of mixture is decreased, individual flames are merged together and the upstream mixture velocity can be practically decreased on a nozzle having opening ratio less than unity. As a result, the flame shape is to he adjusted until the newly established balanced condition is satisfied, and then. the stable combustion can be achieved again.

Simultaneous CH and OH planar laser induced fluorescence(PLIF) and stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements have been developed to investigate the local flame structure of turbulent premixed flames. The developed simultaneous two radical concentrations and three component velocity measurements on a two-dimensional plane was applied for relatively high Reynolds number turbulent premixed flames in a swirl stabilized combustor. All measurements were conducted for methane-air premixed flames in the corrugated flamelets regime. Strong three-dimensional fluctuation implies that misunderstanding of the flame/turbulent interactions would be caused by the analysis of two-component velocity distribution in a cross section. Furthermore, comparisons of CH-OH PLIF and three-component velocity field show that the burned gases not always have high-speed velocity in relatively high Reynolds number turbulent premixed flame. The Reynolds number dependence of the flame front was clearly captured by the simultaneous CH-OH PLIF and stereoscopic PIV measurements.

The multi-environment probability density function model has been applied to simulate the turbulent stratified premixed flames. The direct quadrature method of moments (DQMOM) has been adopted to solve the transport PDF equation due to its computational efficiency and robustness. Computations are made for the non-swirling turbulent stratified premixed flames including SWB1, SWB5 and SWB9. The numerical results obtained in this study are precisely compared with experimental data in terms of axial velocity, unconditional means and conditional means for scalar field including temperature and species mass fraction.
