In this study, the procedures for quantitative measurement of void contents of carbon fiber/epoxy composites were suggested. Two types of the composites were considered: autoclave cured composite and filament wound composite. Void contents of the composites were evaluated by the density of the composites and their constituents, which was determined from weights in the air and water, and the weight fraction and volume fraction of the constituents obtained from the digestion method and combustion method. The surfaces of filtered carbon fibers were examined by FE-SEM in order to investigate the validity of resin removal from the composites. According to the results, the resin in the composites could be fully removed by the digestion method and combustion method. Therefore, the weight fraction and volume fraction of the constituents, and void content of the composites could be quantitatively obtained by the suggested procedures.

램제트 추진기관은 압축과정을 별도의 부품 없이 형상에 의해서 감속하여 연소 압력비를 얻는다. 따라서 구동 마하수와 형상에 의해 흡입과정의 압축 효율이 결정된다. 설계점은 충분한 유량을 확보 할 수 있는 유량과 충격파 각을 조절하여 전압력 손실을 줄이도록 고려되어야 한다. 또한 연소가 일어나면 연소실 압력이 배압으로 작용하고 비행시에 받음각은 변하므로 이에 따른 성능 분석도 고려 되어야 할 사항이다. 본 연구는 국내에서 실험한 형상에 대해 수치계산을 수행하여 코드의 검증과 아울러 램제트 유동장의 수치적 시뮬레이션도 설계단계에서 하나의 도구로 이용할 수 있음을 보여준다. 실험에서는 배압 조건을 얻기 위해 유동 블록키지를 유로 내에 두어 상응하는 배압을 얻었지만 본 계산에서는 압력 경계조건을 직접 사용하였다. 유동이 비정상 특성을 가지므로 시간 정확도를 이차로 가지도록 이중시간 전진법을 사용하였다. 사용한 압력비는 충격파가 카울 끝에 닿는 임계상태에 가까운 12, 13, 14에 대해 계산을 수행하였고 부스터모드로 흡입구 끝이 막혀 있다가 램제트 모드로 바뀌어 연소실 압력이 위의 압력비라고 가정할 때의 비정상 천이 과정을 계산해 보았다. 본 계산은 흡입구 부분만을 떼어놓고 적절한 가정 하에 수행되었지만 연소실 내부도 비정상 특성을 가지므로 흡입구와 연소실을 동시에 같이 계산해야한다. 추후에 전체적인 계산을 진행하기 위한 전 단계로 흡입구 계산만을 수행하여 실험과 잘 일치하는 계산 결과를 얻었고 전체 계산을 위한 연구는 진행 중에 있다.

In this study, a series of CFD analyses were carried out for a hydrogen rocket combustor with a single shear coaxial injector. A hybrid RANS/LES approach was used for the turbulent combustion analysis with a two-dimensional axisymmetric configuration. Three reaction mechanisms, three spatial discretization methods, and three levels of grid resolution were compared to determine an appropriate CFD approach. The performance of the CFD prediction were investigated by comparing the wall heat flux with experimental data. Investigation of the flow field results provides an insight into the characteristics of the turbulent reacting flow of a rocket combustor with a shear coaxial injector.

Oxy-fuel combustion is considered as a promising greenhouse gas reduction technology in power plant. In this study, the behaviors of NO and $SO_2$ were investigated under the condition that in-furnace $deNO_x$ and $deSO_x$ methods are applied in oxy-fuel circulating fluidized bed combustion condition. In addition, the generation trends of $SO_3$, $NH_3$ and $N_2O$ were observed. For the purpose, limestone and urea solution were directly injected into the circulating fluidized bed combustor. The in-furnace $deSO_x$ method using limestone could reduce the $SO_2$ concentration in exhaust gas from ~403 to ~41 ppm. At the same experimental condition, the $SO_3$ concentration in exhaust gas was also reduced from ~3.9 to ~1.4 ppm. This trend is mainly due to the reduction of $SO_2$. The $SO_2$ is the main source of the formation of $SO_3$. The negative effect of $CaCO_3$ in limestone, however, was also appeared that it promotes the NO generation. The NO concentration in exhaust gas reduced to ~26 - 34 ppm by appling selective non-catalytic reduction method using urea solution. The $NH_3$ concentration in exhaust gas was appeared up to ~1.8 ppm during injection of urea solution. At the same time, the $N_2O$ generation also increased with increase of urea solution injection. It seems that the HNCO generated from pyrolysis of urea converted into $N_2O$ in combustion atmosphere. From the results in this study, the generation of other pollutants should be checked as the in-furnace $deNO_x$ and $deSO_x$ methods are applied.

In this study, the laminar burning velocities of SNG fuel were studied using both experimental measurements and kinetic simulations. They were measured using the angle method of Bunsen flame configuration and the annular diverging channel combustor. And they were also numerically calculated by CHEMKIN Package with GRI 3.0 mechanisms. Spectrometer was used for characteristics of flame chemiluminescence of SNG fuels. From results of this work, first, we found that according to adding $H_2$ contents in the fuels the laminar burning velocities of SNG fuels were increased. And second, we also discovered existence of OH*, CH*, $C_2*$, HCO*, $CH_2*$ radicals and their correlation.

A sub-millimeter scale catalytic combustor with a simple plate-shaped combustion chamber was fabricated. A porous ceramics support coated with platinum catalyst was placed in the chamber. The combustor has a gallium arsenide window on the top that is transparent to infrared ray. The temperature distribution in the combustion chamber was measured using infrared thermal imager while hydrogen-air premixture is steadily supplied to the combustor. The area where the catalytic reaction took place broaden for higher flow rate and lower equivalence ratio made activated area in the combustion chamber broaden. The amount of coated platinum catalyst did not affect the reaction. Stop of reaction, which is similar to flame quenching of conventional combustion, was investigated. Large content of heat generation and broad activated area are essential criteria to prevent stop of reaction that has a bad effect on the combustor performance.

건축물 마감재료의 연소시 발생되는 독성가스는 대형화재로 인한 인명피해의 주된 원인 중의 하나이다. 현행 건축법에서는 건축물마감재료에 대하여 동물의 평균행동정지시간을 측정하는 가스유해성시험을 실시하고 있다. 본 연구는 동물시험이 아닌 NFPA 269에 의한 유효량분율(FED: Fractional effective does)을 이용하여 건축물 마감재의 독성지수를 도출하였다. 현행 가스유해성 평가 방법에서 사용되는 채임버(피검상자)를 이용하여 적외선분광분석 및 산소분석기로 연소가스를 정량 분석하였으며, NFPA269에서 규정하는 FED를 도출하였다. 몇 가지 건축재료에 대한 가스유해성시험의 평균행동정지시간과 FED의 상대적인 비교를 통해 연소가스독성평가를 수행하였다.

Dual-fuel engines are being researched with emphasis on the possible types of natural gas supply systems. Hence, a three-dimensional combustion model by using finite volume method was developed to provide a fundamental understanding of the auto-ignition of pilot distillate and subsequent burning of natural gas, when the natural gas as well as the distillate was directly injected into a quiescent diesel engine like combustion bomb tests and the numerical results were investigated for the mixed combustion phenomena. With high-pressure natural gas injection, it was found that the gaseous fuel injection characteristics had to be well harmonised with that of the pilot distillate. For better combustion efficiency, however, further researches are required for the optimisation of injection system in the existence of air motion.

Various combustion modeling approaches have been developed and verified in a combustion system such as rockets, gas turbines, and so on. This study introduces basic theory and recent research activities on 1D network model where a system is divided into a series of acoustic element and mass/momemtum/energy conservations are applied in the component. Each component is connected to the neighboring ones with proper jump conditions. Flame transfer function and acoustic transfer function are determined and effects of the each function on the system instability is investigated.
