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.

우리나라는 건축물 화재 및 지진으로 인한 화재의 위험성이 증가해 가면서 시가지 화재에 대한 위험성이 점차 늘어나고 있다. 하지만 이에 대한 대응책은 미비한 실정이다. 반면 일본의 경우는 과거의 화재사례를 토대로 시가지 화재에 대한 대응책 및 시뮬레이션 개발이 수행되었으며 이를 통해 각 지구의 화재위험성을 평가하여 대책을 마련하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 시가지 화재 시뮬레이션의 화염전파 모델에 관하여 소개함으로서 향후국내의 시뮬레이션 개발에 있어서 기본적인 방향을 제시하고자 하였다.

This study is the results related to the combustion instability phenomenon with respect to combustor length and thermal power as variables in dual swirling combustor configuration. Especially, the beating phenomena having the insensitive resonance frequency of relatively constant peaks are observed when the combustor lengths increase in a lower power regime. This beating phenomenon might be occurred due to the interacting behaviors of pilot and main burners with different periods. Therefore, such insensitive response seems to be a result of the beating phenomenon with interaction between the pilot and main flames even though the combustor lengths are increased.

Mechanism of combustion frequencies occurring during combustion is experimentally investigated in a model combustor with V-gutter flameholder. The combustor has a long duct shape with a cross section area of $40{\times}40mm$. The v-gutter type flameholder with 10, 12, 14mm width is mounted at the side wall of combustor. CNG were used as fuel, and the fuel was injected transversely into air crossflow. It is found that combustion frequencies were considered as first longitudinal mode caused by combustor geometry. And it is found that flameholder length affects the flame holding range. Also, it is observed first longitudinal pressure oscillations make significant changes of flame structure.

The analytical modeling has been established on the self-propagation of intermetallic reaction in the spanwise direction of highly reactive boron and titanium nanoscale multilayers. Assuming that the reaction obeys Arrhenius kinetics, two-dimensional computations are carried out for heat and atomic species diffusion with exothermic reaction model in order to simulate the self-propagation of intermetallic reaction. The effects of bimetallic layer thickness and thickness ratio on the reaction propagation speed are tested and discussed in addition to the assessment of pre-mixing zone effects.

In order to predict the effect of swirl on the structure of concentric laminar jet diffusion flame, present study examined the effect of swirl on the flame characteristics by numerical numerical analysis through theoretical model. The theoretical model has been developed for the co-axial laminar jet flame such that the fuel and air are supplying with swirl through inner and outer co-axial tube respectively. For the parametric study, swirl number, Reynolds number of fuel and air and directions of swirl are chosen as important parametes. The results of study show that the flame with width and shorter length is formed by larger swirl number. The important factor of the flame shape is the recirculating zone formed around jet axis near the exit of nozzle. In case of weak swirl, the effect of directions of swirl is not appeared. However, for the strong swirl, the flame with shorter length are appeared in case of counter-swirl compared with the case of co-swirl.

Numerical study is conducted to analyze combustion instability in the partially premixed combustor. The simulations are performed according to fuel conditions, and Large Eddy Simulation(LES) model and PaSR combustion model are implemented in the solver. Comparison with the experimental result is conducted to confirm the validity of simulation, and quantitative and qualitative agreement is confirmed. The flame characteristics in the combustor are subsequently investigated, and the association with the occurrence of combustion instability is clarified. According to the simulation results, the flame length varies greatly depending on the fuel conditions. When the flame length becomes sufficiently long, flame-vortex interactions occurred around the wall sections, which works as the main cause of combustion instability.

The axisymmetric methane-air counterflow flame was simulated to investigate changes in the flame structure due to the fuel concentration and to evaluate the numerical method. The global strain rates $a_g=20,\;60,\;90\;s^{-1}$ and the mole fractions of methane $x_m=20,\;50,\;80\%$ in the fuel stream were taken to be numerical parameters. The axisymmetric simulation was conducted by using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) which employed a mixture fraction combustion model, and the results were compared with those of OPPDIF, which is an one-dimensional flamelet code and includes detail chemical reactions. In all the cases tested, there was good agreement in the temperature and axial velocity profiles between the axisymmetric and one-dimensional simulations. It was shown that the flame thickness and peak flame temperature increase and the flame radius decreases as the fuel concentration increases.

Relief systems can improve the process safety because it has the function for the prevention of overpressure. Flare stacks is necessary to avoid explosion, radiation, or toxicity by waste-gas emitted from relief system. Safe combustion is one of the important factors to improve safety and the quantity and velocity emitted is ruled in the API code 521. Due to the pressure of released gas and mass flow, a flame from flare stack is similar to jet fire. In this study, we have investigated the effect of flame form on complete combustion and heat emission. API code was similar to jet fire model in flame length, the flame had an effect on the ground.

Numerical analysis was conducted to predict the damage of indoor gas explosion for the propagation of explosion flame. Indoor gas diffusion distribution due to gas leakage was obtained by diffusion equation that adopted initial conditions from reference. Enthalpy of each gas-mixture ratio and reduced mechanism was applied to calculate flame temperature, and laminar combustion velocities with the variant of each gas concentration from reference were applied to the gas mixture. Turbulent combustion velocity was modeled by coupling of turbulent energy and laminar combustion velocity in k-$\epsilon$ model. For the analysis of flame propagation cartesian and cylindrical coordinate were used to indoor position and flame propagation respectively. The study analyzes the cause of pressure rising with the variation of flame propagation by glass damage, and the result shows that indoor pressure rising with ignition position varies window dimension.
