To understand hydrogen jet liftoff height, the stabilization mechanism of turbulent lifted jet flames under non-premixed conditions was studied. The objectives were to determine flame stability mechanisms, to analyze coexistence of two different flame structure, and to characterize the lifted jet at the flame stabilization point. Hydrogen flow velocity varied from 100 to 300 m/s. Coaxial air velocity was changed from 12 to 20 m/s. Simultaneous velocity field and reaction zone measurements used, PIV/OH PLIF techniques with Nd:YAG lasers and CCD/ICCD cameras. Liftoff height decreased with the increase of fuel velocity. The flame stabilized in a lower velocity region next to the faster fuel jet due to the mixing effects of the coaxial air flow. The flame stabilization was related to turbulent intensity and strain rate assuming that combustion occurs where local flow velocity and turbulent flame propagation velocity are balanced. At the flame base, two different flame structures were found that was the partial premixed flames and premixed flame.

Turbulent mixing field with recirculating flow which is formed by injecting gaseous fuel on the main air stream is solved numerically by a finite difference method. The turbulence model for obtaining transport properties was k-.epsilon. model, which was obtained from turbulent kinetic energy and its dissipation rate. Considering the effects of streamline curvature, modified k-.epsilon model was used. Generally, Modified k-.epsilon. model makes better predictions than standard model, and from this result, it is recognized that standard model has deficiency when applied to turbulent recirculating flows, and that modified k-.epsilon. model takes into account of streamline curvature effects properly. Meanwhile, A more study will be necessary to find the reason why large differences between predicted and experimental turbulent kinetic energy exist.

To study the stabilization characteristics of diffusion flame formed in the wake of a cylindrical bluff body with fuel injection, the flame stability limits, length and temperature of recirculation zone of flame, turbulence intensity distribution near the recirculation zone of flame were measured and analyzed. The length of recirculation zone is independent on main fuel injection quantity, but it is dependent on fuel injection angles, air stream velocity, and auxiliary fuel injection into recirculation zone. For diffusion flame, in general, the flame stabilization is deteriorated with increase of he length of recirculation zone, but if the turbulence generator is installed, the flame stabilization is improved with increase of the length of recirculation zone. The temperature of recirculation zone is dependent on fuel injection angles, auxiliary fuel injection into recirculation zone, turbulence generators, and it dependent on fuel injection angles, auxiliary fuel injection into recirculation zone, turbulence generators, and it has a maximum value at the condition of each theoretical mixture. In general, the more temperature of recirculation zone is low, the more flame is stable. But when the turbulence generator is installed, the more temperature of recirculation zone is low, the more flame is unstable. The turbulence intensity in the wake of bluff body is increased with increase of diameter or blockage ratio of grid. The more turbulence intensity is increased by installation of turbulence generator, the more flame is unstable. Finally, It is clear that the stabilization characteristics of diffuser flame can be controlled by some parameters such as fuel injection angles, auxiliary fuel injection into recirculation zone, turbulence generators.

The objective of this study is to investigate the validity of the dynamic sub-grid G-equation model to a complex turbulent premixed combustion such as bluff body stabilized turbulent premixed flames for the considering of the realistic engineering application. In this study, a new turbulent flame speed model, introduced by the sub-grid turbulent diffusivity and the flame thickness, is also proposed and is compared with an usual model using sub-grid turbulent intensity and with the experimental data. The calculated results can predict the velocity and temperature of the combustion flow in good agreement with the experiment data.

The effect of swirl flow on NOx in a nonpremixed turbulent hydrogen jet with coaxial air was studied. The swirl vane angle was varied from $30^{\circ}$ to $90^{\circ}$. The fuel jet air velocity and coaxial air velocity were varied in an attached flame region as $u_F=85{\sim}160m/s$ and $u_A=7{\sim}14m/s$. The objective of the current study was to analyze the characteristics of nitrous oxide emission in a swirl flow and to propose a new parameter for EINOx scaling. The experimental results show that EINOx decreases with the swirl vane angle and increased with flame length. Further, EINOx scaling factors can be determined by considering the effective diameter ($d_{F,eff}$) in a far field concept. The EINOx increased in proportion to the flame residence time (${\sim}{\tau_R}^{1/2.8}$) and the global strain rate (${\sim}{S_G}^{1/2.8}$).

The annular and coaxial swirl flows between which LPG is supplied was selected to study the swirling flames in double co-swirl flows. The objective of this study is to research into the effects of double co-swirl flow conditions on the stability limit, the reverse flow boundary, and the time mean temperature distributions of the swirling flames. The increase of swirl intensity of axial flow makes the stability limit decrease, but the annular swirl flow (SM>0.5) makes stability and swirl intensity of axial flow increase, And the existence of axial swirl flow makes flame intensive and small in size, and this may be applicable to the design of high power compact combustor.

Experimental investigations were conducted for two hydrogen-nitrogen coaxial jet diffusion flames. A flame was a conventional coaxial jet diffusion flame and the other was a coaxial jet diffusion flame of which ambient air-jet turbulence was intensified. In this study, firstly two kinds of NOx measuring system were campared by using different convertors, secondly the NOx formation characteristics were investigated in order to examine the effect of turbulence intensity. In this study it is known that stainless convertor has some problem in the converting process from NO$_2$to NO in fuel rich region but molybdenum convertor can detect the amount of NOx correctly. The increase of turbulence intensity reduces the thermal NOx less than a half in our experiment and this effect is conspicuous near the nozzle. The conversion rate from NO to NO$_2$and the portion of NO$_2$among NOx are increased with turbulence intensity. These NOx measurements will help to understand the influences of turbulence intensity on NOx formation.
