Flammability limits of opposed flow diffusion flame in a narrow channel was investigated experimentally and theoretically. There were three different extinction modes corresponding to high strain rate (HSR), low strain rate (LSR) and dilution ratio (DR) limits. To investigate these limits, a theoretical study was followed by focusing on flow and heat transfer characteristics. Consequently, a dead space concept that has been used for premixed flames was important to reveal the heat loss mechanism in a narrow channel especially for LSR conditions even in the case of diffusion flames.

In this study, opposed flow combustion was re-visited in a narrow channel. Various flame behaviors were observed. Due to the confined structure of the combustor in this study, flame structures at very narrow strain rate could be stabilized and their characteristics were investigated. This study will be helpful to understand overall flame behavior of non-premixed flame in a narrow combustion space, and will also be useful to develop small combustors.

Experiments were conducted to clarify role of the outermost edge flame on low-strain-rate flame extinction in buoyancy-suppressed non-premixed methane flames diluted with He and $N_2$. The use of He curtain flow produced a microgravity level of $10^{-2}-10^{-3}g$ in $N_2$- and He-diluted non-premixed counterflow flame experiments. The critical He and $N_2$ mole fractions at extinction with a global strain rate were examined at various burner diameters (10, 20, and 25 mm). The results showed that the extinction curves differed appreciably with burner diameter. Before the turning point along the extinction curve, low-strain-rate flames were extinguished via shrinkage of the outermost edge flame with and without self-excitation. High-strain-rate flames were extinguished via a flame hole while the outermost edge flame was stationary. These characteristics could be identified by the behavior of the outermost edge flame. The results also showed that the outermost edge flame was not influenced by radiative heat loss but by convective heat addition and conductive heat losses to the ambient He curtain flow. The numerical results were discussed in detail. The self-excitation before the extinction of a low-strain-rate flame was well described by a dependency of the Strouhal number on global strain rate and normalized nozzle exit velocity.

It is shown that the effect of variable parameters on flame structures and NOx emissions in the laminar partially premixed methane-air flames with a co-axial Bunsen burner. Objectives of this paper is to understand the effects of flow variables on NOx emissions and the flame structure with OH chemiluminescence, including reconstructed image by abel inversion processing at each conditions. A fuel flowrate of 200 [cc/min] was fixed and the amount of air was varied from 400 to 1200 [cc/min]. The experimental variables were equivalence ratio(${\Phi}$ fuel split percentage(${\sigma}$ and inner tube recess(x/D). Flow conditions were ranged from $1.36{\sim}4.76$(equivalence ratio), $50{\sim}100$(fuel split percentage) and $0{\sim}20$(inner tube recess). NOx analyzer and ICCD camera with a OH filter were used as a main experimental apparatus. In addition, Abel inversion, which is a kind of tomography and valuable to estimate a two-dimensional structure of co-axial flames from cubical information, was employed for combustion diagnostics. Results from this study indicate that the main effects depend on equivalence ratio and next sigma, x/D for NOx production and OH formation. Throughout Abel inversion, we could affirm the maximum position and the tendency of OH radical intensity by variants at five axial heights above the burner exit.

Experimental study has been carried out to understand combustion characteristics of a swirl-stabilized premixed gas turbine combustor for power generation. $NO_x$ and CO emissions, extinction limit, pressure loss, and temperature distribution were measured for various operating conditions. Results show that, with increasing inlet air temperature, $NO_x$ is increased due to a higher adiabatic flame temperature while CO is increased or decreased for low or high A/F ratio regime, respectively. depending on the flame location. With decreasing load from the design condition, $NO_x$ is decreased as thermal load is reduced. With further decreasing load, however, $NO_x$ is increased due to a longer residence time. CO is decreased and then increased with decreasing load. Flame extinction limit is extended with increasing inlet air temperature as the recirculation strength is enhanced.

산업용 혹은 발전용 가스터빈에 사용되는 이중 콘형 예혼합 연소기의 다단 연소 특성을 이해하기 위하여 실험적연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 기존에 모두 경사면에 공급되는 연료를 콘부분으로 일부 할애하는 방식으로 다단연소 방식을 구성하였으며 콘에서 분사되는 연료공급은 축방향과 콘 경사면 방향으로 하였다. 다단연소 연소특성을 이해하기 위하여 콘에서의 연료 분사 방향과 연료 분배율 변화에 대한 NOx와 CO의 배출 농도 그리고 벽면 온도분포를 측정하였다. 그 결과 총 연료에 대한 콘으로의 분배율이 3%인 경우 콘에서의 연료 분사방향에 관계없이 노즐내의 예혼합 영역에서 연료가 공기와 균일하게 혼합됨으로서 연소영역의 고온점 감소에 의하여 NOx 배출 농도가 감소된다. 그러나 콘에서 축방향으로 분사되는 연료분배율이 8%로 증가하는 경우 노즐 내부 예혼합 영역으로의 화염 역화로 인하여 NOx의 배출농도가 오히려 증가하게 된다.

최근 대두되고 있는 바이오가스(Biogas)를 이중 희박 예혼합 가스터빈 연소기에 적용하기 위한 연구로써, 기존 개발된 실물형 이중 희박 예혼합 연소기 버너헤드에 바이오가스 조성을 모사한 $CO_2$ 희석 연료를 사용하여, 가스터빈 연소기의 연소불안정에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 이중 스월이 적용된 이중화염에서 연료분배율(Pilot fuel mass fraction)에 따라 화염구조가 상이하며 이에 따라 연소장의 온도분포와 연소불안정 특성이 결정된다. 동압신호와 phase-resolved $OH^*$ 이미지를 통해 연료분배율 변화와 $CO_2$ 희석률 증가에 따른 연소불안정 크기 감소와 그 경향을 알 수 있었다. $CO_2$ 희석에 의해 열방출 섭동의 크기가 감소하고 화염속도가 감소하며 이에 따라 화염면의 팽창 즉, 체적의 증가로 인해 연소불안정이 감소되는 것을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

Influence of fuel concentration gradient was investigated near flame extinction limit in buoyancy-suppressed non-premixed counterflow flame with triple co-flow burner. The use of He curtain flow produced a microgravity level of $10^{-2}-10^{-3}g$ in He-diluted non-premixed counter triple co-flow flame experiments. Flame stability map was presented based on flame extinction and oscillation near extinction limit. The stability map via critical diluent mole fraction with global strain rate was represented by varying outer and inner He-diluted mole fractions. The flame extinction modes could be classified into five: an extinction through the shrinkage of the outmost edge flame forward the flame center with and without self-excitation, respectively ((I) and (II)), an extinction via the rapid expansion of a flame hole while the outmost edge flame is stationary (III), both the outermost and the center edge flames oscillate, and then a donut shaped flame is formed or the flame is entirely extinguished (IV), a shrinkage of the outermost edge flame without self-excitation followed by shrinking or sustain the inner flame (V).

One of the most useful method for increasing combustion loading of premixed flame is to strengthen the turbulent intensity of unburned mixture. It produces an important information to a design of efficient combustion equipment that analysing microstructure of strong turbulence premixed flame. The flame structure and characteristics are depend on the turbulence of unburned mixture. Therefore, to strengthen the turbulent intensity of unburned mixture make flame scale small and accomplish efficient combustion. We measured the velocity of local flame front movements, local eddy radius and local reaction zone thickness quantitatively with increasing turbulent intensity of unburned mixture. We researched the microstructure of flame using ion currents that react sensitively in the reaction zone. Consequently, the velocity of local flame front movements is depend on the velocity of unburned mixture and local eddy scale is to be small with increasing turbulent intensity. But there is no change in local reaction zone thickness with turbulence.
