In this research, a network model was developed to predict combustion instability in an annular gas turbine combustor (GT24) for power generation. The model consisted of various acoustic elements such as several ducts and area changes which could represent a real combustor with a complex geometry, applied mass, momentum, and energy equations to each element. In addition, a one-dimensional network model through a cylindrical coordinate system has been proposed to predict various acoustic modes. As a result of the analysis, the key resonant frequencies such as longitudinal, circumferential, and complex modes were derived from the EV combustor of GT24, and the reliability of the current model was verified through comparison with the 3D Helmholtz solver.

3개의 난류모델과 3개의 연소모델로 구성된 9개의 모델조합을 이용하여 난류 부분예혼합 제트화염 구조에 대한 수치적 예측성능을 검토하였다. 이용된 난류모델은 표준 ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ 모델(SKE), Realizable ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ 모델(RKE) 및 Reynolds 응력모델(RSM)이며 연소모델들은 Eddy Dissipation Concept 모델(EDC), Steady Laminar Flamelet 모델(SLF)와 Unsteady Laminar Flamelet 모델(ULF)이다. 9개 모델조합의 예측성능을 평가하기 위하여 실험결과가 알려진 Sandia D 화염인 난류 부분예혼합 제트화염을 대상으로 수치계산을 수행하였다. 얻어진 결과로서, 화염길이의 예측은 RSM > SKE > RKE순으로 길게 예측하였으며, RKE 난류모델은 화염길이를 너무 과소 예측하는 것을 확인하였다. RSM + SLF과 RSM + ULF의 조합은 화염길이는 비교적 잘 예측하였지만 하류에서의 화염온도를 과대 예측하였다. 반면에 SKE와 연소모델의 조합에서 SLF 또는 ULF 조합은 화염길이 뿐만 아니라 하류에서의 화염온도도 비교적 잘 예측하였는 것을 확인하였다. 반경방향 화염온도 및 화학종 농도분포를 비교해 본 결과 SKE와 연소모델의 조합이 가장 예측성능이 뛰어났으며 SKE + ULF의 조합이 가장 우수한 예측성능을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.

The objective of this work is to investigate the turbulent reacting flow in a three dimensional combustor with emphasis on thermal NO emission through a numerical simulation. Flow field is analyzed using the SIMPLE method which is known as stable as well as accurate in the combustion modeling, and the finite volume method is adopted in solving the radiative transfer equation. In this work, the thermal characteristics and NO emission in a three dimensional combustor by changing parameters such as equivalence ratio and inlet swirl angle have investigated. As the equivalence ratio increases, which means that more fuel is supplied due to a larger inlet fuel velocity, the flame temperature increases and the location of maximum temperature and thermal NO has moved towards downstream. In the mean while, the existence of inlet swirl velocity makes the fuel and combustion air more completely mixed and burnt in short distance. Therefore, the locations of the maximum reaction rate, temperature and thermal NO were shifted to forward direction compared with the case of no swirl.

Phenomenological models for direct injection diesel engine emissions including NO, soot, and HC were implemented into a full engine cycle simulation and validated with experimental data obtained from representative heavy-duty DI diesel engines. The cycle simulation developed earlier by Jung and Assanis (2001) features a quasi-dimensional, multi-zone, spray combustion model to account for transient spray evolution, fuel-air mixing, ignition and combustion. In this study, additional models for HC emissions were newly implemented and the models for NO, soot, and HC emissions were validated against experimental data. It is shown that the models can predict the emissions with reasonable accuracy. However, additional effort may be required to enhance the fidelity of models across a wide range of operating conditions and engine types.

This study conducted a 3D thermo-acoustic analysis based on the helmholtz solver to analyze the major resonance modes causing combustion instability in a single-can combustor. The experimental investigations were carried out on a test rig designed by the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM) under various conditions of hydrogen co-firing and fuel staging. Through these experiments, two primary unstable frequencies were identified. To determine the resonance modes of these frequencies, a 3D thermo-acoustic analysis was conducted using temperature information from the test rig. The results confirmed that the unstable frequencies observed in the experiments were all longitudinal modes. Additionally, the mode shapes identified in the analysis facilitated a simplification of the exit geometry for the low-order network model, confirming that this did not significantly affect the fundamental resonance modes.

In this study, the structural analysis of cooling fan is combined with 3-D flow analysis by using CFD on fluid domain. The smoothly cooling flow with optimum design of cooling parts is essential at automotive combustion engine. The fan shape is modeled with three kinds of shape by varying the radius of the fan blade. By the results of analysis, the flow at Model I is more uniform than Model II or III. And the displacement at Model I is less than Model II or III. As the flow resistance of cooling fan at Model I decreases more than Model II or III, the efficiency becomes better.

It is important to understand the fuel injection characteristics, particularly the atomization, penetration, and breakup, for reducing the emissions in Diesel engines because those characteristics are related to the formation of the emissions. 3-dimensional CFD code can provide a fundamental understanding of those characteristics. In this study, two different breakup models (the Reitz-Diwakar model and the Kelvin-Helmholts Rayleigh Taylor model) were validated with the experimental data in a constant volume vessel. Then, the effect of the breakup model on the characteristics of the engine combustion and emission was studied.

This paper aims to predict oxidation amounts of catalyst and heat produced through passive regeneration on DPF according to different EGR rates and loads of off-road engines. Soot oxidation model and parameter assumption model were used for the test. Engine data were measureed with 25%, 50% and 75% of 1600 RPM loads and with 0% and 30% of EGR rates in order to estimate parameters. Oxygen levels calculated on the DPF downstream and oxygen levels measured were compared through all of the experimental conditions for validating the model. Oxidation rates on DPF according to different EGR rates and oxygen levels on the DPF downstream were estimateed successfully, which can be applied for off-road vehicles.

It has been generally accepted that NOx formation increases as the maximum temperature or correspondingly the maximum pressure of a combustion system increases. Recently some exceptional experimental results have been reportes that under certain circumstance NOx formation could be reduced while the maximum pressure was increasing by varying the methods of combustion for the same kind of premixed gases. Until now that kind of results have been acquired only for the case of a dual opposed prechamber. But the mechanism has not been clearly understood yet. 3D computer simulation has been tried to clarify the mechanism. Flor this purpose KIVA-Ⅱ has been modified and applied to the model combustion chamber with which the same kind of experimental works have been done by the authors. A good agreement with the experimental results was achieved with the spatial and temporal resolution which is hard th be obtained by the experimental methods. And it was observed that for the dual opposed prechamber case the time for the NOx formation, which is non-equilibrium reaction, is shorter than any other case by an appropriate mixing process in the main combustion chamber. The shorter time reduceed heat loss through the combustion chamber walls and thereby obtaines the higher maximum pressure.
