본 연구는 현재 콘덴싱 보일러에 많이 사용하는 다공성 소재중에서 메탈화이버(metal fiber, MF) 및 세라믹(ceramic, CM)으로 제작한 평판형 버너에 대해 연소 및 열특성을 비교 검토하고 그 결과를 향후 개발할 EGR(Exhaust gas recirculation) 콘덴싱 보일러에 적용할 버너 선정의 기초자료로 활용하는 것을 목적으로 한다. CO 배출량은 CM이 MF보다 높았고 NOx 배출량은 MF가 CM보다 높게 나타났다. 버너열량 변화시에는 버너열량이 클수록 효율이 높게 나타났으며 버너 소재별 열효율은 버너열량 변화와 관계없이 MF가 CM보다 높게 나타났다. 본 실험범위에서 KS B 기준과 EN 677기준을 근거로 비례제어, 열효율, CO 및 NOx 배출량을 고려할 때 버너 소재는 MF가 적절하며 당량비는 0.8일때가 최적 운전조건으로 판단된다.

An experimental study was performed to investigate the characteristics of chemiluminescence in a radiant burner, varying the excess air ratio from 0.91 to 1.67 at firing rate 80.5 to 134.2 kW/m2 on $OH^*,\;CH^*,\;{C_2}^*$ in LNG-Air premixed flames. The signals from electronically excited states of $OH^*,\;CH^*,\;{C_2}^*$ were detected using a Intensified Couple Charged Detector (ICCD) camera. The measurements of exhausted emission were made to investigate the correlation between chemiluminescence and emissions. The chemiluminescence intensity was increased with increase of firing rate like characteristics of $NO_x$ emission. $NO_x$ also increased with increase of firing rate and excess air ratio. It is found that offset of firing rate is more dominant excess air ratio $NO_x$ emission. The maximum chemiluminescence intensity occurs near the stoichiometric excess air ratio or lean conditions in case of high firing rate and the maximum intensity occurs rather than rich conditions in case of relatively low firing rate. Amount of $NO_x$ emission is maximum at near stoichiometric excess air ratio, which is chemiluminescence intensity is maximum.

Experimental studies on combustion phenomena within a porous ceramic burner are reported. Main interest of the present work is to investigate fundamental flame behaviors and their effects on the burner operation. Due to high thermal capacity of the porous ceramic materials, the response of flame to burning condition changes is slow and thus to have a stabilized flame is quite difficult and takes much time. It is found that the temperature profile obtained at downstream of the flame zone is not much sensitive to the movement of flame and the speed of flame movement is less than 0.1 mm/sec for the conditions tested. With the premixed LPG/air flame imbedded within the porous ceramic burner, stable combustion regions and unstable combustion regions leading to blowoff or flashback phenomena are observed and mapped on flow velocity versus equivalence ratio diagram. For the development of burner operation technique which is more practical and safe, intermittent burning technique, where the fuel or/and air is supplied to the burner intermittently, is proposed as one of the flame control methods for the porous ceramic burner and tested in this study. Through the experiment, it is realized that the proposed method is acceptable in respect to burner performance and give much flexibility in the operation of porous ceramic burner.

The surface flames in porous ceramic burner are experimentally characterized to investigate the effects of equivalence ratio and firing rates. The results show that the surface flames are classified into green, red radiant and blue surface flame as decrease of equivalence ratio. And each flame is maintained very stably and shows the same flame characteristics at any orientation of ceramic burner. Particularly the blue surface flame was found to be very stable at very lean equivalence ratio at 200 to $800\;kw/m^2$ firing rates. And the exhausted NOx was analysed to find out which flame has lower NOx emission. The blue surface flame showed the lowest NOx emission regardless of the location of burner since it sustained very stable at lean mixture ratio.

Emission characteristics of nitric oxides and carbon monoxide from a porous media combustor has been experiment studied. The relationship between the change of flame shape and emission has also been examined. As the equivalence ratio decreases, the flame shape on the ceramic matrix plate changes from a diffusion flame, R(radiant)-type flame, to B(Blue)-type flame. With large fuel flow rate, R-type flame turns to be two dimensional R-II type flame around the equivalence of 0.7. Carbon monoxide emission increases very rapid with decreasing equivalence ratio. It changes a lot from some 10 ppm to 100-10,000 ppm with the change of flame type from R-I to R-II type. Nitric oxide emission from the premixed burner is less than 25 ppm over all range of fuel flow rate, which is less than 20% of NOx emission from conventional gas burners.

본 연구에서는 수관식 보일러의 열교환기를 모사하기 위하여 수관의 존재 유무에 따른 화염의 안정화와 연소 특성을 당량비와 유속에 따라 비교하였다. 버너는 화염이 존재하는 SiC foam과 역화 방지를 위한 세라믹 보드, 균일한 유동장을 형성하는 알루미나 볼로 구성되며, 반경 반향의 열 손실을 최소화하기 위하여 단열재로 밀폐되어 있다. 결과적으로 수관이 존재하는 경우 낮은 당량비 구간에서 역화 및 날림 현상의 경계가 넓어지는 것을 안정화 영역에서 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 수관이 존재하는 경우 NOx 배출량이 수관이 없는 경우보다 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 수관이 존재함으로써 열 손실을 억제하여 화염의 온도가 증가하는 것으로 판단하였으며, O₂ 배출량과 화염의 온도를 예측하여 입증하였다.

Typical boiler system consists of combustion chamber and heat exchanger in one housing, therefore the size of boiler system is large and the heat exchanging efficiency becomes low. At these boiler systems, because the combustible mixture fires as free flame in the combustion chamber, consequently the combusted hot gas heats the heat exchanger only as conductive and convective heat transfer. The present Porous Ceramic Burner concept is that combustion process is occurred at the gaps of the porous ceramic materials, and the heat exchanger is placed in the same porous materials. Therefore we can reduce the boiler size, and we can also use radiative heat transfer from ceramic material with conductive and convective heat transfer from combusted gas throwing the porous materials. The purpose of this study is to search the flame stability ranges at different fuel flow rate and excess air ratio burning in the $Al_2O_3$ ceramic balls. We found out the stable excess air ratio range on given combustion intensity. And we can get clean porous ceramic combustion results compared with free flame.
