The combustion characteristics of Boron-beads to improve the energy density of gas generator has been investigated in accordance with diameter of beads and their composition. In this paper, electrically heated tungsten sheet and visualized furnace are applied to measure ignition temperature and burning time of bead respectively. The results proposes ignition temperature between 720~800 K and burning time proportional to bead diameter. Also a ignition delay of boron particle is detected through the temperature and radiation intensity measurements.

Combustion instability is a major issue in design of gas turbine combustors for efficient operation with low emissions. Combustion instability is induced by the interaction of the unsteady heat release of the combustion process and the change in the acoustic pressure in the combustion chamber. In an effort to develop a technique to predict self-excited combustion instability of gas turbine combustors, a new stability analysis method based on the transfer matrix method is developed. The method views the combustion system as a one-dimensional acoustic system with a side branch and describes the heat source as the input to the system. This approach makes it possible to use not only the advantages of the transfer matrix method but also well established classic control theories. The approach is applied to a gas turbine combustion system, which shows the validity and effectiveness of the approach.

A Promising new approach to achieve low pollutant emissions and improvement of flame stability is tested experimentally using a cyclone jet hybrid combustor employing both premixed and diffusion combustion mode. Three kinds of nozzle are tested for mixing enhancement of fuel and air. The LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) is used as a fuel. The combustor is operated by two methods. One is DC (Diffusion Combustion) mode generated swirl flow by air as general swirl combustor, and the other is HC (Hybrid Combustion) mode. The HC mode consists of diffusion jet flame of axial direction and premixed cyclone flame of tangential direction in order to stabilized the diffusion jet flame. The results showed that the flame stability of HC mode is significantly enhanced than that of DC mode through the change of mixing characteristics by modifications of fuel nozzle. In addition, the reductions of CO and NOx emission in HC mode, as compared with that for the DC mode, is large than about 50% in stable region. Also, even using the low calorific fuel as $CO_2$-blended gas, it is identified that the cyclone jet hybrid combustor has the high performance of flame stability.

Combustion instability is a major issue in design of co-generation gas turbine combustors for efficient operation with low emissions. Combustion instability is induced by the interaction of the unsteady heat release of the combustion process and the change in the acoustic pressure in the combustion chamber. In an effort to develop a technique to predict self-excited combustion instability of co-generation gas turbine combustors, a new stability analysis method based on the transfer matrix method is developed. The method views the combustion system as a one-dimensional acoustic system with a side branch and describes the heat source as the input to the system. This approach makes it possible to use not only the advantages of the transfer matrix method but also well established classic control theories. The approach is applied to a simple co-generation gas turbine combustion system, which shows the validity and effectiveness of the approach.

An investigation into the influence of ultrasonic standing wave on the structural behavior of propane/air premixed flame has been made to get a clue to the combustion reaction acceleration and combustion instability, as well. Visualization technique utilizing the Schlieren method was employed for the observation of structural variation of the premixed flame. The flame shape and propagation velocity were measured according to the variation of equivalence ratio. It was found that the standing wave distorted the flame front and expedited a transition to the flame with turbulent nature.

급격한 산업과 기술의 발달은 중금속을 포함한 다양한 유해물질(예를 들면, 배기가스, 대기오염, 연소)로부터의 식품 오염을 초래하였고, 특히 식품은 그 자체 뿐 만 아니라 제조ㆍ가공, 조리과정 중에도 오염물질에 노출되어, 이들을 함유한 음식이 우리들의 식탁에 오르게 됨으로써 식품의 안전은 물론 궁극적으로 국민건강이 위협받기에 이르렀다.(중략)

We investigated combustion characteristics of wood pellets in a combustion equipment with adjusting amount of flue gas. Maximum temperature in a combustion chamber was $850^{\circ}C$. Higher heating Value of a domestic wood pellet tested is 19.1 MJ/kg and water content was 8.3%. Amount of flue gas causes big effect on burning characteristics in $450{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. Wood pellet does not burn in low temperature atmosphere less than $450^{\circ}C$ and low flue gas flow rate. We made burning the pellet that is made in Korea, USA, Chile and Canada. Color of foreign pellets are bright brown and they made by mainly sawdust. Korean pellet is a dark brown color because it contains bark. There are some differences in the result of elementary analysis and technical analysis. According to the result of burning experiment, burning times of each countries's pellet are similar.

목질계 바이오매스 가스화 발전에 있어서는 가스화 가스중에 함유되어있는 타르를 가능한 한 가연성 가스로 전환하여 냉가스효율을 향상시키는 것 및 잔유하는 타르는 후단기기에 악영향을 초래할 우려가 있기 때문에 타르를 저감 제거하는 것이 바람직하다. 본 연구에서는 공기 수증기를 사용하여 타르개질 프로세스의 개선을 위해서 타르에서 가스성분으로의 전환에 관한 개질 실험을 실시하여 Wood chip 타르의 열분해 개질 생성물 거동에 대하여 검토하였다. Wood chip 열분해로 생성된 타르의 원소분석 및 $^1H$ NMR분석의 결과로 타르를 치환기를 가지지 않는 방향족, alkyl-기를 가지는 방향족, 산소 함유 방향족, 지방족의 4개로 분류하였다. 개질제에 의해 경질 타르, 중질 타르 모두 감소하였다. 개질 공기는 타르를 연소시키지만 그 속도는 가연성 가스와 경합하고 $900^{\circ}C$에서는 타르의 연소는 나타나지 않았다. alkyl-기를 가지는 방향족은 메탄과 치환기를 가지지 않는 방향족으로 전환되고, 치환기를 가지지 않는 방향족은 수소와 soot로 전환되고, 산소 함유 방향족은 일산화탄소와 치환기를 가지지 않는 방향족으로 전환되는 것을 알았다. 또한, 개질제에 의해alkyl-기를 가지는 방향족, 치환기를 가지지 않는 방향족, 산소 함유방향족 모두가 일산화탄소,이산화탄소로 전환되는 것을 알았다.

Solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs) can convert the chemical energy of fuel into electricity directly. With the rising fuel prices and stricter emission requirement, SOFCs have been widely recognized as a promising technology in the near future. In this study, lean premixed flame using the orifice swirl burner was analyzed numerically and experimentally. We used the program CHEMKIN and the GRI 3.0 chemical reaction mechanism for the calculation of burning velocity and adiabatic flame temperature to investigate the effects of equivalence ratio on the adiabatic flame temperature and burning velocity respectively. Burning velocity of hydrogen was calculated by CHEMKIN simulation was 325cm/s, which was faster than that of methane having 42 cm/s at the same equivalence ratio. Also Ansys Fluent was used so as to analysis the performance with alteration of swirl structure and orifice mixer structure. This experimental study focused on stability and emission characteristics and the influence of swirl and orifice mixer in Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Systme burner. The results show that the stable blue flame with different equivalence ratio. NOx was measured below 20 ppm from equivalence ratios 0.72 to 0.84 and CO which is a very important emission index in combustor was observed below 160 ppm under the same equivalence region.
