Partially premixed diffusion system is analyzed using the matched asymptotic expansion technique adopting counterflow with supplying fuel and oxidizer from one side and fuel only from the other as a model problem. Results show that single-stage extinction always occurs as stretch increases, and the partially premixed diffusion flame can hardly exist. Depending on the initial mixture concentrations, either premixed or diffusion flame extinction leads to complete extinction of the system, and the diffusion flame can change its character to premixed flame such that two premixed flames can exist in the partially premixed-diffusion system.

OH radical and NO distributions have been measured in methane/air partially premixed counterflow flames(${\alpha}$=1.0, 0.8, 0.6) using PLIF technique. The results are discussed and compared with the numerical analysis results obtained under the same flame conditions. Measured OH and NO LIF signals agree with the computed concentration distributions. Both numerical and experimental results indicate that the structural change in a flame alters the NO formation characteristics of a partially premixed counterflow flame. The nitrogen dilution also changes flame structure, temperature and OH radical distributions and results in the decreased NO concentrations in a flame. The levels of decrease in NO concentrations, however, depends on the premixedness(${\alpha}$) of a flame. The larger change in the flame structure and NO concentrations have been observed in a premixed flame($\alpha$=1.0), which implies that the premixedness is likely to be a factor in the dilution effect on NO formation of a flame.

본 논문에서는 일양한 예혼합 기류중에 놓여진 원주 후류의 고온 순환류에 의 해 보지되는 난류 예혼합 화염을 대상으로 해서 유동의 가시화 및 온도와 이온전류의 변동의 측정에 의해서 화염의 구조를 조사한 결과, 원주 보염기 후류의 재순환 영역부 근에 형성된 전단층에 있어서는 코히렌트(Coherent)구조의 화염이 되고 하류부에서는 불규칙한 3차원 와(渦)에 지배되는 전파성 화염이 형성 되었다. 온도변동에 대한 쌍 봉성의 확율밀도분포와 이온전류변동에 대한 3개의 피이크의 확율밀도분포는 엷은 반 응면을 사이에 두고 미연혼합기괴와 기연가스괴가 서로 접하는 주름 상층류화염 또는 층류화염편의 구조에 대응하며, 코히렌트 와(渦)에 지배되는 화염에 있어서는 거시적 혼합은 코히렌트 와의 거동에 지배되나 그 구조는 주름상층류 화염과 일부 강한 전단 력을 받는 부분에는 분산 반응영역의 구조임이 밝혀졌다.

연소시 발생하는 오염물질 중 NOx는 심각한 대기오염의 원인이 되는 것으로 알려져 있어, 각종 연소기 등에서 발생하는 NOx 저감을 위한 연구가 중요하게 대두되었다. 특히 확산화염은 예혼합화염 및 부분예혼합화염에 비해 NOx, Soot 등 오염물질이 발생할 가능성은 높으나 화염 안정성이 좋아 산업용 연소기에 많이 이용되고 있어 보다 다양한 NOx 저감 기술의 필요가 요구되고 있다.(중략)

The estimation method of the interchangeability in a partial premixed appliance about various compositions of natural gases using equivalent gases, experimentally. The results of the experiment in which equivalent gases were used compared with those obtained in experiments in which natural gases were used; Images of flames, lift-off limits, CO emissions, and incomplete combustion indices in KS standard for the domestic gas range were considered. From the comparison, it was observed that the length and color of the flame of the equivalent gases were almost the same as those of imported natural gases. Further, in the case of gases with Wobbe indices greater than 51 MJ/$m^3$, the KS standard for lifting limits was satisfied. Furthermore, in the case of gases with Wobbe indices less than 56.3 MJ/$m^3$, the CO mole fractions are in the range 95-100 ppm. Hence, the range of Wobbe indices 51-56.3 MJ/$m^3$ was proposed to be the range for interchangeability from the points of view of lifting limits and incomplete combustion, as prescribed in the domestic gas range in the case of imported natural gases.

The lift-off characteristics of lifted laminar propane jet flames highly diluted with nitrogen are investigated introducing acoustic forcing with a fuel tube resonance frequency. A flame stability curve is obtained according to forcing strength and the nozzle exit velocity for N2 diluted flames. Flame lift-off behavior is globally classified into three regimes; 1) a weakly varying partially premixed behavior caused by a collapsible mixing for large forcing strength, 2) a coexistent behavior of the edge flame and a weakly varying partially premixed behavior for moderate forcing strength, and 3) edge flame or triple flame behavior for small forcing. It is shown that the laminar lifted flame with forcing affects flame lift-off behavior considerably, and is also clarified that the flame characteristic of flame base is well described with the penetration depth of the degree of mixing, ${\gamma}$$\_$$\delta$/. It is also confirmed that the weakly varying partially premixed flame caused by a collapsible mixing fur large forcing strength behaves as that just near flame blow-out in turbulent lift-off flame.

The prediction performance of 9 model sets, which combine 3 turbulent models and 3 combustion models, was investigated numerically for turbulent partially-premixed jet flame. The standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ (SKE), Realizable ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ (RKE) and Reynolds stress model (RSM) were used as a turbulence model, and the eddy dissipation concept (EDC), steady laminar flamelet (SLF) and unsteady laminar flamelet model (ULF) were also adopted as a combustion model. The prediction performance of those 9 model sets was evaluated quantitatively and qualitatively for Sandia D flame of which flame structure was measured precisely. The flame length was predicted as, from longest to shortest, RSM > SKE > RKE, and the RKE predicted the flame length of the jet flame much shorter than experiment. The flame temperature was over predicted by the combination of RSM + SLF or RSM + ULF while the flame length obtained by RSM + SLF and RSM + ULF was well agreed with the experiment. The combination of SKE + SLF and SKE + ULF predicts well the flame length as well as the temperature distribution. The SKE turbulence model was most superior to the other turbulent models, and SKE + ULF showed the best prediction performance for the structure of turbulent partially-premixed jet flame.

Numerical study is conducted to analyze combustion instability in the partially premixed combustor. The simulations are performed according to fuel conditions, and Large Eddy Simulation(LES) model and PaSR combustion model are implemented in the solver. Comparison with the experimental result is conducted to confirm the validity of simulation, and quantitative and qualitative agreement is confirmed. The flame characteristics in the combustor are subsequently investigated, and the association with the occurrence of combustion instability is clarified. According to the simulation results, the flame length varies greatly depending on the fuel conditions. When the flame length becomes sufficiently long, flame-vortex interactions occurred around the wall sections, which works as the main cause of combustion instability.
