Spud angle( ${\alpha}$ ) and fuel injection angle ( ${\beta}$ ) have strong influence on spud type gas burner combustion. A wide range of flame stability is shown at ${\alpha}=60^{\circ}$, but at ${\alpha}=30^{\circ}$ is narrow. Optimum condition of flame stability swirl angle( ${\gamma}$ ) is $40^{\circ}$. At condition of ${\alpha}=30^{\circ}$ flame shape is relatively narrow and long, on the other hand, at ${\alpha}=60^{\circ}$ flame is wide and short. Regardless of spud angle, maximum flame temperature shows in the range of Z=200mm and R=0mm. Flame temperature, on the whole, is high at ${\alpha}=45^{\circ}$. At ${\alpha}=45^{\circ}$, NOx emission is higher than other conditions that may be concerned with flame temperature. At ${\beta}=60^{\circ}$ and ${\gamma}=40^{\circ}$, NOx emission is reduced due to fuel injection angle.

The MSITs(Minimum Spontaneous Ignition Temperatures) or AITs(Autoignition Temperatures) describe the minimum temperature to which a substance must be heated, without the application of a flame or spark, which will cause that substance to ignite. This study measured the MSITs(Minimum Spontaneous Ignition Temperatures) of n-pentanol+ethylbenzene system by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The MSITs of pure n-pentanol and ethylbenzene were $285^{\circ}C$ and $475^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental MSITs of n-pentanol+ethylbenzene system were a in good agreement with the MSIT calculated by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D.(average absolute deviation).

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.

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.

In this study, standards and test methods for building materials of domestic and foreign countries were compared and analyzed to propose evaluation methods for the fire-retardant performance of HANOK components (Traditional house). IBC and NFPA codes recently have been adopted in the US, and the properties such as critical heat flux, fire spread index and smoke density are being used as an evaluation reference. In Europe, the unified Euroclass has been adopted and the surface flammability, prototype fire test or cone calorimeter test are conducted for the performance test. Japan has the similar system as Korea where the class is classified into 3 grades. We tried to study a quantitative evaluation method of fire retardant performance for the HANOK components based on the analysis results of the several countries' standards and test methods for building materials.

This study evaluated thermal image real-time estimation and fire alarm using by a CCD camera, which has been a seamless feature-point analysis method, according to the angle and position and image fusion by a vector coordinate point set-up of equal shape. The system has higher accuracy, fixing data value of temperature sensing and fire image of 0~255, and sensor output-value of 0~5,000. The operation time of a flame specimen within 500 m, 1000 m, and 1500 m from the test report specimen took 7 s, 26 s, and 62 s, respectively, and image creation was proven. A diagnosis of fire accident was designated to 3 steps: Caution/Alarm/Fire. Therefore, a series of process and the transmission of SNS were identified. A light bulb and fluorescent bulb were also tested for a false alarm test, but no false alarm occurred. The possibility that an unwanted alarm will be reduced was verified through a forecast of the fire progress or real-time estimation of a thermal image by the change in the image of a time-based flame and an analysis of the diffusion velocity.

Rayleigh Scattering Cross Sections($\sigma$i) of various gases and the temperature distributions of premixes C3H8/O2 flame are measured by high power KrF(248nm) Exci- mer laser and ICCD camera. Results show that $\sigma$i of O2 and Propane(C3H8) gases agree well in the 5% error range, but of H2 has the more or less difference from the calcul- ated value by other groups. This is attributed to the low RS signal of H2 to Nosie level(S/N ratio). The temperature distributions of flame range out between 300K in the air and about 2000K in the burned area. In this temperature range, out system has the about 250K temperature resolution. Because low RS signals in the reaction area with high temperature are affected highly by noises, temperature uncertainty of this area is relatively high to another part of flame. Experimental results show that UV Rayleigh Scattering can be used for the measurement of mixing ratio of mixed gases and the temperature distributions of flame. Especially, this technique can be applied for the measurement of the mixing ratio of air/fuel before the ignition and the flame structure after the ignition inside the Engine.

4D film is just a film that made by adding some physical effects to 3D film or general film. In order to provide physical effects to the audience, the data that make the physical effect must be added to each frames. In this paper, we proposed a video detection system that can efficiently provide physical effects by assessing the present situation such as explosion scene, snowing scene. The proposed video detection system contains an algorithm for fire detection by using R color and $C_r$ value, and also an algorithm for snow detection by using RGB color model. The system constitutes in a MCU that from 8051 family. In the performance evaluations, the result shows that 91% of detection rate in case of fire and 25% of false detection rate in case of snow. Also the system is capable of providing physical effects automatically.

가스터빈 연소기의 역방향 이중 스월러의 두 번째 벤츄리 끝단 각도의 변이가 연소실내의 유동 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 벤츄리 끝단 각도가 수렴형, 직선형, 발산형의 세 형상에 대해 연료 분무가 없는 경우, 연료 분무는 있으나 연소는 없는 경우, 연소가 일어나는 경우에 대해 수치적 방법으로 연소실 내의 유동 특성에 대해 고찰하였다. 연료의 분무는 분무된 액적들이 갖는 운동량이 유입되는 공기의 운동량에 비해 적으므로 분무에 의한 유동 특성의 변화는 무시할 수 있는 반면 연소가 일어날 때는 유동 특성이 판이하게 달라짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 가스터빈 연소실 내의 유동 특성은 벤츄리 끝단 각의 변이에 따라 민감하게 변하고 있다.
