본 연구에서는 최근 차량용 대체연료로서 주목받고 있는 천연가스의 연소특성을 규명하기 위해 밀폐된 정적연소실을 이용, 당량비, 초기압력 및 점화위치 변화에 따른 연소실험을 행하였으며, 그 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 메탄-공기 예혼합기의 화염전파과정은 이론혼합기 부근에서 구면형으로 진행되는데 반해, 과농 또는 과박 혼합기 그리고 점화위치가 연소실 벽면에 가까울수록 타원형으로 진행되며, 초기압력이 증가함에 따라 화염전파는 느려진다. 화염전파속도와 연소 속도는 초기압력이 낮고 점화위치가 연소실 중심에 가까울수록 빠르며, 당량비 1.0∼1.1 사이에서 최대치를 보인다.

A series of hybrid rocket combustion experiments were carried out with PMMA/GOx changing diameter and length of the disk installed at pre-chamber. The disk can generate vortex shedding flow and change flow conditions prior to entering the fuel grain which could also alter the combustion characteristics and pressure oscillations. The interaction of vortex shedding in the pre-chamber and small-scale vortices adjacent to burning surfaces by using combustion test.

This paper describes the investigation of combustion characteristics of gasoline-methanol blend in constant volume combustion chamber. A constant volume combustion chamber was used to elucidate a basic combustion characteristics and the premixer was installed to control temperature and equivalence ratio. And the maximum pressure, combustion duration and flame propagation according to the evaporation rate were measured to determine the optimal temperature range for evaporating a blend fuel. These experimental results indicate that the combustion characteristics such as combustion chamber pressure and combustion were deteriorated by decreasing surrounding temperature of fuel. These experimental results indicate that the combustion characteristics such as combustion chamber pressure and combustion were deter orated by decreasing surrounding temperature of fuel injected. It was also found that the overall gasification process for methanol blend fuel was influenced by a combustion chamber temperature rather than a premixer temperature.

In this paper, we present the theoretical and numerical results of scavenge characteristics in a small prechamber of an HCCI(Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition) engine. Two theoretical models are proposed in prediction of the scavenge time and the efficiency ; one is the non-mixing models in which it is assumed that the input gas($CH_{4}$) and the existing gas(air) do not mix with each other, and the other is the fully-mixed model in which the two gases are assumed to mix completely before ejecting to the ambient air. Focus is also given to the effect on the scavenge performance of the size of the chamber oulet.

This paper deals with an acoustic model for a lean premixed gas turbine combustor composed of three stages: premixing chamber, nozzle and flame tube. Our model is given as an acoustic transfer function whose input is a heat release rate perturbation and output is a velocity perturbation at a flame location. We have shown that the resonance frequencies are functions of three round-trip frequencies of acoustic wave in each stage, and area ratios between stages. By analyzing poles of the acoustic transfer function, we could characterize resonant frequencies and their dependency on various system parameters of a combustor. It was found that our analytic findings match with existing numerical and experimental results in literature.

The main objective of this study was investigation of natural gas flames in a lean premixed swirl-stabilized dump combustor with an attention focused on the effect of the various fuel-air mixing section geometry on the combustion instability characteristics. The multi-channel dynamic pressure transducers were located on the combustor and inlet mixing section region to observe combustion pressure oscillation and difference phase at each dynamic pressure measurement results. Dynamic pressures were also measured to investigate characteristics of combustion at the same time. The combustor and mixing section length was varied in order to have different acoustic resonance characteristics from 800 to 1800 mm in combustor and 470, 550, 870 mm in mixing section. We observed two dominant instability frequencies in this study. Lower frequencies were obtained at lower equivalence ratio region and it was associated with a fundamental longitudinal mode of combustor length. Higher frequencies were observed in higher equivalence ratio conditions. It was related to secondary longitudinal mode of coupled with the combustor and mixing section. In this instability characteristics, pressure oscillation of mixing section part was larger than pressure oscillation of combustor. As a result, combustion instability was strongly affected by acoustic characteristics of combustor and mixing section geometry.

대부분의 시뮬레이션이 특정 시스템의 모델에 대한 분석을 위해 시행된다. 하지만 이러한 용도뿐만 아니라 실제 시스템이 의도대로 진행될 것인지의 검증을 위해서 시뮬레이 션을 사용할 수 있다. 예를 들어, FMS(유연생산시스템)와 같이 분산된 환경에서 작동하는 시스템을 구축하는 경우, 시스템의 작동 여부를 검증하는 용도로 시뮬레이션을 사용할 수 있는데 이 경우 첫단계에는 모든 기계를 시뮬레이션으로 대치하여 처리하다가 한단위씩 실 제 기계로 교환하여 목적에 부합하는지를 검토함으로써 전체 시스템을 용이하게 구축할 수 있다. 위와 같은 경우 그 실행 과정에서 실제 작업과 시뮬레이션 작업이 혼합되어 나타나게 된다. 이러한 혼합 분산 시뮬레이션에서는 실제 작업과 시뮬레이션 작업을 동기화하는 문제 가 발생하며 하드웨어의 실제 작업뿐만 아니라 소프트웨어의 실작업 시간 또는 시뮬레이션 진행에 반영되어야만 한다. 여기서는 실제 작업과 시뮬레이션 작업이 혼합되어 나타나는 혼 합 분산 시뮬레이션을 정의하고, 그 필요성을 살펴본다. 그리고 이러한 문제에 대한 기존의 시뮬레이션 연구들의 적용성을 고찰해 보며, 혼합 분산 시뮬레이션의 운영 방법으로서 중앙 시계를 이용한 실제 작업과 시뮬레이션 작업의 동기화 방안을 제시한다.

지난 10여년간의 연소분야에 대한 연구는 크게 세가지 방향에서 괄목할 만한 발전을 이루어 왔다. 그 첫째는 대용량 컴퓨터의 개발에 따른 수치해석능력의 신장을 들 수 있고, 둘째는 실 험에서 레이저를 이용한 비접촉 계측방법의 발달을 들 수 있다. 또한 이론적 관점에서는 1974 년이래 유체역학에서 프란틀의 경계층 이론에 비견될 수 있는 접합점근방법(matched asymptotic technique)를 이용하여 예혼합 화염의 전파속도, 확산화염의 구조 및 점화/소화현상, 열폭발문제, 화염의 안정성 등에 관한 엄격한 해석이 가능하게 되었다. 이로서, 종래의 현상적, 물리적 설 명으로 이해될 수 없었던 분야를 해석할 수 있었다. 이에 따라 본 강좌에서는 연소분야의 이 론적 연구에 초점을 맞추어 접합점근방법의 기초개념 및 해석방법을 소개하고자 한다. 이를 위해 2장에서 확산 화염과 예혼합 화염의 특성을 설명하고, 3장에서 화염면 극한의 해석, 4장에서 확산 화염의 구조해석을 통한 점화/소화현상 및 5장에서 예혼합 화염에의 응용 등을 소개한다.

The gas motion inside the engine cylinder plays a very important role in determining the thermal efficiency of an internal combustion engine. A precise information of in-cylinder three dimensional complex gas motion is crucial in optimizing engine design. Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine is a combustion concept, which is a hybrid between Otto and Diesel engine. The turbulent diffusion leads to increased rates of momentum, heat and mass transfer. The in-cylinder turbulence flow was found to affect the present HCCI combustion mainly through its influence on the wall heat transfer. This study investigates the effect of piston geometry shape on the turbulent flow characteristics of in-cylinder from the numerical analysis using the LES model and the results obtained can offer guidelines of the combustion geometries for better combustion process and engine performance.
