아크 플라즈마의 온도 분포를 측정하는 방법으로 개발된 CCD 카메라를 이용한 온도 측정 방법을 비대칭 플라즈마의 온도 분포 측정에 적용하기 위해 비대칭 플라즈마의 데이터 변환에 이용 가능한 아벨 역산 방법을 개발하였다. 비대칭 플라즈마 중 V-groove 상의 아크는 타원형의 플라즈마로 볼 수가 있으므로 타원형의 단면을 가지는 플라즈마에 대해 온도 측정을 수행하고 그 결과로서 모재로 전달되는 아크의 열속(heat flux)의 분포를 예측 할 수 있었다.

Measurements of heat release are very important for controling combustion instabilities, which are closely connected with combustion instabilities. $OH^{\ast}$ images were acquired through a ICCD in this study, which were in use as indicating index of the reacting region, global and local heat release rate in the lean premixed combustion. The objectives of this study are to see the effect of equivalence ratio on global heat release rate and local Rayleigh index distribution. The local Rayleigh index distribution was acquired by information from central section of flame. This information was from the line-of-sight images which were inverted by the Abel de-convolution. In each condition, the mean value of heat release increased exponentially with equivalence for a periodic time. Local Rayleigh index distribution cleary showed the region of amplifying or damping the combustion instability as the equivalence ratio increased. This could provide an insight on the region of combustion instability and the structure of flames on the equivalence ratio.

본 논문은 실내에서 사용자의 위치를 측위하기 위해 건물 실내에 설치되어 있는 Wireless AP(Access Point)에서 발신되는 RSSI(Received signal strength indication)를 수집한 후 Friis 공식을 통해 거리로 변환하여 위치를 측위한다. Friis 공식을 적용하는 과정에서 RSSI 신호가 약할수록 거리의 오차가 매우 심하게 변동되기 때문에 본 논문에서는 이러한 오차를 개선하기 위해 신호세기가 강한 2개의 AP좌표와 RSSI를 이용하여 두 원의 교점을 구하는 방정식과 좌표 사이의 거리를 구하는 방정식을 사용하는 위치측위 시스템을 구현하였고, 실험결과 제안한 방법이 기존의 삼각측량법보다 오차가 개선되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The objective of this study is a qualitative comparison between line-integrated OH chemiluminescence(OH$\^$*/) image and its Abel inverted image to investigate the flame structure at different phase of the oscillating pressure field. PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) measurements were conducted under non-reacting conditions to see the global flow structure and NOx emission was measured to investigate the effect of fuel-air premixing on combustion instability and emission characteristics. Experiments were carried out in an atmospheric pressure, laboratory-scale dump combustor operating on natural gas. Combustion instabilities in present study exhibited a longitudinal mode with a dominant frequency of ∼341.8㎐, which corresponded to a quarter wave mode of combustor. Heat release and pressure waves were in-phase when instability occurred. Results gave an insight about the location where the strong coherence of pressure and heat release existed. Also an additional information on active control to suppress the combustion instabilities was obtained. For lean premixed combustion, strong correlation between OH$\^$*/ and NOx emissions was expected largely due to the exponential dependence of thermal NOx mechanism on flame temperature.

Measurements of OH chemiluminescence in an atmospheric pressure, laboratory-scale dump combustor at equivalence ratios ranging from 0.63 to 0.89 were reported. The signal from the first electronically excited state of OH to ground state was detected through a band-pass filter with an ICCD. The objectives of this study are two: One is to see the effects of equivalence ratio on global heat release rate and local Rayleigh index distribution. To get the local Rayleigh index distribution, the line-of-sight images were inverted by tomographic method, such as Abel de-convolution. Another aim is to investigate the validity of using OH chemiluminescence acquired with an ICCD as a qualitative measure of local heat release. For constant inlet velocity and temperature, the overall intensities of OH emission acquired at different equivalence ratio showed periodic and higher value at high equivalence ratio. OH intensity averaged over one period of pressure increased exponentially with equivalence ratio. Local Rayleigh index distribution clearly showed the region of amplifying or damping the combustion instability as equivalence ratio increased. It could provide an information/insights on active control such as secondary fuel injection. Finally, local heat release rate derived from reconstructed OH images were presented for typical locations.

The objective of this study is a qualitative comparison between line-integrated OH chemiluminescence ($OH{\ast}$) image and its Abel inversion image at different phase of the oscillating pressure field. PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) measurements were conducted under non-reacting conditions to see the global flow structure. Also NOx emission was measured to investigate the effect of fuel-air premixing on combustion instability and emission characteristics. Experiments were carried out in an atmospheric pressure, laboratory-scale dump combustor operating on natural gas. Combustion instabilities in present study exhibited a longitudinal mode with a dominant frequency of ${\sim}341.8$ Hz, which corresponded to a quarter wave mode of combustor. Heat release and pressure waves were in-phase when instability occurred. Results gave an insight about the location where the strong coherence of pressure and heat release existed. Also an additional information on active control to suppress the combustion instabilities was obtained. For lean premixed combustion, strong correlation between $OH{\ast}$ and NOx emissions was expected largely due to the exponential dependence of thermal NOx mechanism on flame temperature.

A preprocessing scheme utilizing multi-division of the ROI (region of interest) in a chemiluminescence image during inversion is proposed. The resulting inverted image shows the flame's structure, which can be useful for studying combustion instability. The flame structure is often quantitatively visualized with PLIF (planar laser-induced fluorescence) images as well. The chemiluminescence image, which is a line-integral of the flame, needs to be preprocessed before inversion, mainly due to the inherent noise and the assumption of axisymmetry during the inversion. The feasibility of the multi-division preprocessing technique has been tested with experimentally-obtained OH PLIF and $OH^*$ chemiluminescence images of jet and swirl-stabilized flames burning substitute natural gas (SNG). It turns out that the technique outperforms two conventional methods, specifically, the technique without preprocessing and the one with uni-division, reconstructing the SNG flame structures much better than its two counterparts when compared using corresponding OH PLIF images. The characteristics of the optimum degree of polynomials to be applied for curve-fitting of the flame region data for the multi-division method involving two flames has also been investigated.

Experiments were carried out in an atmospheric pressure, lab-scale gas turbine combustor to see the effect of partial premixing on unstable flame structure and Nox emission characteristics. The swirl angle is 45 deg., fuel-air mixing degrees were varied 0, 50 and 100% respectively at equivalence ratio ranging from 0.53 to 0.79. The evolution of phased-locked OH chemiluminescence images were acquired with an ICCD. NOx emission characteristics were also investigated at each experimental condition. The effect of the fuel-air mixing degree on the flame structure was obtained from phase-locked $OH^*$ images. And it was obtained from local heat release characteristics that the information about the region which the combustion instability was amplified or damped. It also could be confirmed that $\sigma$ has greatly influence on NOx emission characteristics at lean regimes. It would be expected that it could provide invaluable data for understanding the mechanism of combustion instability.

It is shown that the effect of variable parameters on flame structures and NOx emissions in the laminar partially premixed methane-air flames with a co-axial Bunsen burner. Objectives of this paper is to understand the effects of flow variables on NOx emissions and the flame structure with OH chemiluminescence, including reconstructed image by abel inversion processing at each conditions. A fuel flowrate of 200 [cc/min] was fixed and the amount of air was varied from 400 to 1200 [cc/min]. The experimental variables were equivalence ratio(${\Phi}$ fuel split percentage(${\sigma}$ and inner tube recess(x/D). Flow conditions were ranged from $1.36{\sim}4.76$(equivalence ratio), $50{\sim}100$(fuel split percentage) and $0{\sim}20$(inner tube recess). NOx analyzer and ICCD camera with a OH filter were used as a main experimental apparatus. In addition, Abel inversion, which is a kind of tomography and valuable to estimate a two-dimensional structure of co-axial flames from cubical information, was employed for combustion diagnostics. Results from this study indicate that the main effects depend on equivalence ratio and next sigma, x/D for NOx production and OH formation. Throughout Abel inversion, we could affirm the maximum position and the tendency of OH radical intensity by variants at five axial heights above the burner exit.
