In this paper, the combustion improvement effects of alcohol-diesel oil blend fuel were investigated in a visualization engine. As a result of experiment, it was found out that the combustion chamber of deep dish type and re-entrant type at the same operation condition. However, when the con-tent of alcohol exceeded 10% of total fuel delivery, the combustion of alcohol-diesel oil blend fuel was worse than that of diesel oil. The maximum blend quantity of ethanol which is not ignited in the re-entrant type combustion chamber was estimated at approximately 40% of total fuel delivery. So, it is necessary to blend appropriate quantity of a volatility fuel such as alcohol in order to improve combustion.

The PSP(Pressure Sensitive Paint) is a technique to measure continuous pressure distribution on medel surface by oxygen quenching. The objective of this study is to apply PSP which is measured pressure for analyzing that air-fuel mixing characteristics in SCRamjet combustor. Experimentation is performed at freestream Mach number of 2.5 and used fuel jet injection. The result shows that growing air-fuel mixed proportions by increasing in cavity size. Also, PSP results compared with conventional pressure tap and CFD. They are coincided with qualitative and the inclination.

The mixing characteristics of pylon injection in a Scramjet combustor and effects of film cooling to protect pylon from air-heating were investigated. Three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with $k-{\omega}$ SST turbulence model were used. Fuel hydrogen and air were considered as coolants. There were remarkable improvements of penetration and mixing rate with the pylon injection. There was also over-heating on the front surface of the pylon without film cooling. The coolant injected parallel to the front surface of the pylon protects the pylon from over-heating.

A swirler with turbulence generator is designed and manufactured for generating many small-scale eddies in the combustor which contribute to enhancing mixing effect between fuel and air. The method results in not only the disadvantage of pressure loss but also the advantage of promoting combustion and reducing NOx. For the purpose of the study, four kinds of swirler with different turbulence generator area (0%, 3%, 7%, and 12% of reducing flow area) are designed to confirm the effect of mixing according the variation in the area of the turbulence generator. The mixing of combustor in the radial direction is significantly improved and the distributions of flames and temperature are well distributed throughout the cross section of a combustor as area of swirl generator is increased.

Experimental investigations were conducted to understand the multi-staged combustion characteristics of a swirl-stabilized double cone premixed burner nozzle used for industrial gas turbines for power generation. Multi-staged combustion is implemented by injecting the fuel through the existing manifold of the side slots as well as through the apex of the cone with two fuel injection angles which are slanted or axial. NOx and CO emissions, and wall temperature distributions were measured for various fuel distributions and operating conditions. Results show that NOx emissions are decreased when the fuel distribution to the apex is 3% of the total amount of fuel, which is due to more uniform fuel distribution inside the nozzle, hence less hot spots at the flame. NOx emissions are rather increased when the fuel distribution to the apex is 8% of the total amount of fuel for axial fuel injection by occurrence of flash back in premixing zone of burner.

본 논문에서는 하이브리드 차량 내부 전기모터의 등판 마력값과 회전 RPM, 흡기온도 센서의 온도 변화와 공기 및 연료의 혼합비율인 공연비에 대해 퍼지 제어 기법을 적용하여 차량의 연료 소비를 제어하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법에서는 초기 가속부분에서 등판 마력간과 회전 RPM을 퍼지제어 규칙에 의해 전기모터와 엔진의 사용비율을 제어하고, 엔진이 가동될 때 각각의 공기유입량과 연료 분사량을 이용하여 공연비 수치를 구한 후, 공연비, 흡기온도, 최종 연료 보정량에 대해 설정된 피지 소속 함수와 퍼지 추론 규칙에 따라 차량 연료를 제어한다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 실험한 결과, 제안된 퍼지 제어 기법을 이용한 엔진 및 연료 제어 방법이 퍼지기법을 적용하지 않은 제어방법보다 평균연비가 개선되어 제안된 연료 제어 방법이 효율적임을 확인하였다.

최적의 액체 램제트 연소기 설계를 위하여 흡입공기와 분무, 혼합 그리고 이에 따른 연소의 일련의 과정이 일어나는 램제트 연소기의 유동해석을 2차원 및 3차원으로 수행하였다. 격자구성은 연소기에 공기를 공급하고 연료를 분무하는 공기 유입관 영역과 연소실 및 노즐 영역, 그리고 출구 대기 영역으로 나누어 독자적으로 격자를 생성시켰다. 연소실 내의 유동 특성에 있어서 2차원과 3차원의 유동해석 결과는 선회영역 유동특성이 크게 차이가 남을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 실제 액체 램제트 연소기의 설계를 위해서는 3차원 유동해석과 실험이 반드시 필요하다.

The structure of the nonpremixed methane-air counterflow flames in microgravity was investigated by axisymmetric simulation with Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) to evaluate the numerical method and to see the effects of strain rate and fuel concentration on the diffusion flame structure in microgravity. Results of FDS for the methane mole fractions, $X_m$=20, 50, and 80% in the fuel stream, and the global strain rates $a_g$=20, 50, and $90s^{-1}$ for each methane mole fraction were compared with those of OPPDIF, an one-dimensional flamelet code. There was good agreement in the temperature and axial velocity profiles between the axisymmetric and one-dimensional computations. It was shown that FDS is applicable to the counterflow flames in a wide range of strain rate and fuel concentration by predicting accurately the flame thickness, flame positions and stagnation points.

Ignition and combustion performance of a gas-turbine engine were changed by various high-altitude condition. A goal of this study is to make the small test facility to simulate high-altitude condition. To perform the low pressure condition, a diffuser was used in various diffuser front of primary nozzle pressure. To perform the low temperature, heat exchanger was used in various mixture ratio of cryogenic air and ambient temperature air. The experimental result shows that high-altitude conditions can be controled by diffuser front of primary nozzle pressure and mixture ratio of cryogenic air and ambient temperature air.

극초음속 여객기와 군사용 항공기에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라서 새로운 개념의 다양한 추진기관이 연구가 진행되고 개발되어 왔다. 초음속 항공기의 속도 영역은 마하 10-20 정도가 되는데 이 속도 한계를 극복하기 위하여 초음속 연소 램제트 엔진(SCRamjet; Supersonic Combustion Ramjet)이 제안되었다. 스크램 제트를 개발하기 위해서는 연료와 산화제의 혼합 효율 문제, 화염의 안정화 문제, 벽면의 냉각에 관한 문제 등 몇 가지 기본적인 문제들을 해결해야 한다. Univ of Michigan에서 실험한 연소기를 모델로 본 연구에서는 연료와 공기의 혼합에 관한 수치 연구를 수행하였다. 다원 혼합기체에 관한 축대칭 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 지배 방정식을 이용하였고 비평형 화학반응식을 고려하였다. 공간 차분에는 유한 체적법을 이용하였다. 대류 플럭스 항은 Roe의 Upwind FDS 기법을 사용하여 차분하였고 점성항에는 중심 차분법을 이용하였다. 시간 적분법으로는 근사 자코비안과 LU분할 기법을 이용한 완전 내재적 방법이 쓰였다. 난류 모델로는 Mentor에 의해 제안된 2 방정식 k-$\varepsilon$/k-$\omega$ 혼합모델을 사용하였다. 유동장이 실험에서의 찍은 사진과 유사한 모습의 충격파 간섭을 수치 모사하였고 수소가 확산되는 모습과 함께 노즐 lip 주위의 재순환 영역에 대해서 살펴볼 수 있었다.
