Numerical simulations of nonpremixed $CH_4/C_2HCl_3$(Trichloroethylene, TCE)/Air flames are conducted at atmospheric pressure in order to understand the effect of hydrocabon bound chlorine on methane/air flames. A chemical kinetic mechanism is employed, the adopted scheme involving 48 gas-phase species and 445 elementray reaction steps containing 223 backward reactions. The calculated temperature, velocity, and critical strain rate are compared with the experiments for the flame (16.1% TCE by Vol.) estabilished at a strain rate of $175s^{-1}$. Whereas there is overall good agreement between predictions and the measurements, it appears that the critical strain rate is higher than measured, and some areas of further refinement in the kinetic mechanism are required.

The flame structure and soot formation in the counterflow Ethylene-Air nonpremixed flame are numerically analyzed. The present soot reaction mechanism involves nucleation, surface growth, particle coagulation, and oxidation steps. The gas phase chemistry and the soot nucleation, surface growth reactions are coupled by assuming that the nucleation and soot mass growth has the certain relationship with the concentration of benzene and acetylene. In terms of the centerline velocity and the soot volume fraction, the predicted results are compared with the experimental data. The detailed discussion has been made for the sensitivity of model constants and the deficiencies of the present model. Numerical results indicated that the acetylene addition to the soot surface plays the dominant role in the soot mass growth for the counterflow nonpremixed flame.

본 연구에서는 분무화염의 기초적인 물리현상을 해명하기 위하여 층류 대향류장에 형성된 분무 화염에 2차원 직접 수치계산(Direct numerical simulation, DNS)을 적용하여, 당량비 및 연료종이 분무화염 구조에 미치는 영향에 대하여 관찰하였다. 기상에 대해서는 질량 보존식, 운동량 보존식, 에너지 보존식을 오일리안(Eulerian) 법으로 계산하였으며, 액적에 대해서는 화염중의 모든 개개의 유적을 라그란지안(Lagrangian) 법으로 추적하였다. 액체 연료로는 n-데칸 ($C_{10}H_{22}$)과 n-헵탄($C_7H_{16}$)을 이용하였으며, 연소반응 모델에는 총괄반응식을 이용하였다. 당량비가 증가함에 따라 착화가 빠르며, 고온영역도 넓게 분포하고 있다. 그러나, 최대 온도치는 당량비가 증가함에 따라 한번 증가한 후 감소하는 경향을 나타내고 있다. 당량비가 클수록 최대 온도가 감소하는 것은 분무화염 내부의 군연소 거동에 의한 냉각효과 때문이라고 생각된다. 또한, n-헵탄은 n-데칸과 비교하여 증발속도가 빠르기 때문에 넓은 고온 영역을 형성하지만 최대 온도는 거의 같은 값을 나타내었다.

The NOx emission characteristics with oxygen enrichment in nonpremixed counterflow and coflow jet flame of $CH_4$ fuel have been investigated numerically. A small amount of nitrogen is included in oxygen-enriched combustion, in order to consider the inevitable $N_2$ contamination by air infiltration. The results show that the initial increase of NO with increasing oxygen enrichment is due to increasing temperature and residence time, while its subsequent decrease above 75% oxygen is due to decreasing the consumption rate of nitrogen. When oxygen addition exceeds 30%, Thermal NO gradually becomes the dominant production pathway and Prompt NO becomes negative pathway for net NO production rate. It is also seen that Thermal NO plays an important role in NO reduction when strain rate increase in oxygen-enriched combustion. Finally, the results of EINOx with oxygen enrichment in coflow jet flame show the similar profile with those of conterflow flame. It is confirmed that, with leakage of 1% nitrogen in the oxidizer stream, the corresponding EINOx is eight times of that emitted from regular $CH_4$/Air flame.

A two-dimensional direct numerical simulation was performed to investigate the flame structure of CH$_4$$N_2$-air counterflow nonpremixed flame interacting with a single vortex. The detailed transport properties and a modified 16-step augmented reduced mechanism based on Miller and Bowman's detailed chemistry were adopted in this simulation. The characteristic vortex and chemical time scales were introduced to quantify and investigate the extinction phenomenon during a flame-vortex interaction. The results showed that fuel- and air-side vortex cause an unsteady extinction. In this case, the flame interacting with a vortex was extinguished at much larger scalar dissipation rate than steady flame. It was also found that the air-side vortex extinguished a flame more rapidly than the fuel-side vortex. Furthermore, it was noted that the degree of unsteady effect experienced by a flame can be investigated by comparing the above two characteristic time scales, and this analysis could give an appropriate reason for the results of the previously reported experiment.

In this paper it is investigated the roles of key elementary reactions for NO formation in methane-air one-dimensional premixed flame and counterflow diffusion flame, which were studied numerically by using NO kinetics and $C_{2}$ -chemistry complied by Miller and Bowman. The spatial distributions of the reaction rates of 9 main elementary reactions directly related to NO formation and destruction were calculated. Integration of the rates of all reactions in the NO formation across the flame yields the quantitative reaction path diagram, which shows clearly relative importance of each reaction path in NO formation and how it changes with the type and parameters of the flame. The results show that the thermal and Fenimore mechanisms are dominant respectively for learn and rich premixed flames, and the latter is dominant for diffusion flames. In addition, it was found that the HCN recycle route is important for diffusion flame, and that the routes of mutual transformation between NO and NO$^{2}$, and between NO and HNO do not contribute to the net NO formation.

Numerical study with detailed chemistry has been conducted to investigate the NOx formation and structure in $CH_4/Air-CO_2$ counterflow diffusion flames. The importance of radiation effect is identified and the role of $CO_2$ addition is addressed to thermal and chemical reaction effects, which can be precisely specified through the introduction of an imaginary species. Also NO separation technique is utilized to distinguish the contribution of thermal and prompt NO formation mechanisms. The results are as follows : The radiation effect is dominant at low strain rates and it is intensified by $CO_2$ addition. Thermal effect mainly contributes to the changes in flame structure and the amount of NO formation but the chemical reaction effect also cannot be neglected. It is noted that flame structure is changed considerably due to the addition of $CO_2$ in such a manner that the path of methane oxidation prefers to take $CH_4 {\rightarrow}CH_3{\rightarrow}C_2H_6{\rightarrow}C_2H_5$ instead of $CH_4 {\rightarrow}CH_3{\rightarrow}CH_2{\rightarrow}CH$. At low strain rate(a=10) the reduction of thermal NO is dominant with respect to reduction rate, but that of prompt NO is dominant with respect to total amount.

DME는 환경 친화적인 특성으로 인해 현재 전 세계적으로 주목을 받고 있다. 지금까지 DME는 매연을 적게 생산하는 청정 에너지라는 특성으로 인해 디젤 자동차의 주요 대체 에너지로서 연구되어 왔다. 이에 본 연구에서는 에틸렌 대향류 확산화염에 DME를 5%, 14% 및 30% 혼합했을 때, DME의 혼합 비율에 따른 매연의 수밀도 및 크기에 대한 영향을 조사하였다. 레이저 투과법 및 산란법을 이용해 수밀도 및 크기를 측정하였다. 그 결과 DME를 30% 혼합한 경우에는 매연이 감소한 반면, 5%와 14%의 혼합 비율에서는 매연이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이 결과는 DME가 매연 생성이 적은 청정 연료로 알려진 것과는 달리 에틸렌 확산화염 내에서는 DME의 혼합에 따라 매연 생성이 증가될 수 있다는 것을 의미한다.
