An experimental study on the local velocity acceleration in a flat plate boundary layer diffusion flame

평판 경계층 확산화염에서의 국부적 가속현상에 관한 실험적 연구

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the local velocity acceleration in a boundary layer diffusion flame over a flat plate. In order to know the effect of separation on the local velocity acceleration, two typical cases, flows with and without separation, are considered. For these cases, flow visualization using paraffine smoke tracers has been made. Mean velocity and r.m.s. value of fluctuating velocity are measured by using a laser Doppler velocimeter. In addition, measurements of time-mean concentration and time-mean temperature have been made. Time-mean density profiles have been obtained from the data of concentration and temperature. The obtained results are summarized as follows : (1) In the case without separation, the local velocity acceleration is clearly observed near the visible flame zone for all flow conditions. On the while, in the case with serration, the local velocity acceleration is observed only at low free stream velocity and high fuel injection velocity. As increasing the free stream velocity or decreasing the fuel injection velocity, it is not distinctly observed in the mean velocity profile. (2) The r.m.s. value of fluctuating velocity is significantly decreased by combustion in the case with separation. But in the case without separation, the r.m.s. value is increased near the visible flame zone in comparison with cold flow. In both cases, the peak value of r.m.s. appeared just at the visible flame zone, where the mean velocity gradient is not too high.

본 연구에서는 연료분출에 박리가 있는 경우와 없는 경우 각각에 대하여 화염 대 근처의 국부가속 현상이 박리에 의하여 어떻게 영향을 받는가를 실험적으로 규명하 고, 나아가서 종래에 행해져 왔던 관련 연구 결과를 재검토할려고 한다.
