Experimental investigations were carried out in an atmospheric pressure, optically accessible and laboratory-scale dump combustor operating on methane gas. The objective of this study was to obtain the phase-resolved gas temperatures at different phases of the oscillating pressure cycle during unstable combustion. CARS temperature measurements were made at several spatial locations under lean premixed conditions to get the information on temperature field within the combustor. Also the effect of incomplete fuel-air mixing on phase-resolved temperature fluctuation was investigated. Results including phase-resolved averaged temperature, normalized standard deviation and temperature probability distribution functions (PDFs) were provided in this paper. Temperature PDFs gave an insight on the flame behavior. And strong correlation between phase-resolved temperature profile and pressure cycle was observed. Results of the phase-resolved high temperature gave an additional information on the perturbation of equivalence ratio at flame as well as the effect of mixing quality on NOx emission characteristics.

An experimental study of the flame response in a turbulent premixed combustor has been conducted with room temperature, atmospheric pressure inlet conditions using premixed natural gas. The fuel is premixed with the air upstream of a choked inlet to avoid equivalence ratio fluctuations. Therefore the observed flame response is only the result of the imposed velocity fluctuations, which are produced using a variable speed siren. Measurements are made of the velocity fluctuation in the nozzle using hot wire anemometry and of the heat release fluctuation in the combustor using chemiluminescence emission. The results are analyzed to determine the phase and gain of the flame transfer function as a function of the modulation frequency. Of particular interest is the effect of flame structure on the flame response predictions and measurements. The results show that both the gain and the phase of flame transfer function are closely associated with the flame length and structure, which is dependent upon the upstream flow perturbation as well as equivalence ratio in the current study.

Lean premixed combustion is a well known method for low $NO_x$ gas turbine combustor. But lean combustion is usually accompanied by flame instability. To overcome this problem, the hydrogen ($H_2$) was added to main fuel methane to increase flammable limit. In this paper, the effects of hydrogen addition on lean premixed combustion of methane ($CH_4$) were investigated numerically. Results showed that the extinction stretch rate increases and the extinction temperature constant with relatively small amount of $H_2$ addition. The flame temperature and NO emission increase with $H_2$ addition at the same stretch rate and equivalence ratio but it could increase the range of lean extinction and extinction equivalence ratio limit. Eventually, the $H_2$ addition case showed almost same or lower NO emission than no addictive $CH_4$ case in the extinction condition.

In this study, we define the measuring method of crank angle precisely using an event and perform a study on the hardware structure and software algorithms which is applicable for the commercial engine. Also we developed a Computer-ECU(Personal computer based electronic control unit) using a computer and a microprocessor, for performing the ignition at a desire position(angle) and for controlling a duty ratio a pulse for ISC(Idle speed control). We applied these algorithms to the modeling which is induced a concept of event and got a better result than a conventional ECU in the state of transient as a result of performing air fuel ratio control in a commercial engine.

The knowledge of flame structure is essential for control of combustion instability phenomena. Some results of an experimental study on mechanism of naturally occurring combustion oscillations with a single dominant frequency are presented. Tests were conducted in a laboratory-scale dump combustor at atmospheric pressure. Sound level meter was used to track the pressure wave inside the combustor. The observed instability was a longitudinal mode with a frequency of $\sim341.8Hz$. Instability map was obtained at the condition of inlet temperature of $360^{\circ}C$, mean velocities of $8.5\sim10.8m/s$ and well premixed mixture. It showed that combustion instability was susceptible to occur in the lean conditions. In this study, unstable flame was observed from stoichiometric to 0.7 in overall equivalence ratio. At selected unstable conditions, phase-resolved OH chemiluminescence images were captured to investigate flame structure with various mean velocities. As mean velocity is increased, the flame grows and global heat release was changed. Due to these effects, combustion instability can be maintained at more lean air-fuel ratio. Also, these results give an insight to the controlling mechanism for an increasing heat release at maximum pressure.

Experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of EGR(exhaust gas recirculation) on engine noise using single cylinder combustion ignition engine. Under constant engine rotary speed of 1200 RPM, 8 mg fuel quantity was injected with 15, 18 and 21% of oxygen ratio and 1400 bar of injection pressure. Using the in-cylinder pressure data acquired by a piezoelectric transducer, the engine performance parameters were calculated. Radiated engine noise measured for 10 seconds was analyzed using spectral characteristics and sound quality metrics such as loudness, sharpness, roughness. From the obtained engine performance parameters and sound quality metrics, effect of oxygen ratio of the premixed air, start of injection timing on frequency characteristic and sound quality metrics were analyzed. Correlation analysis was conducted between MPRR(maximum pressure rise rate), RI(ringing intensity) and sound quality metrics. RI was identified as the most important factor having influence on the sound quality metrics.

The purpose of this experiment is to understand the distribution of coal particles inside CWM droplet which is believed to be a very important factor controlling the flame stability. CWM slurry is atomized by an air assisted twin fluid nozzle. An experimental rig is designed and fabricated. The mean size of coal particle distribution in CWM slurry, atomizing air pressure, coal particle loading in slurry and sampling position inside spray are main experimental variables. The atomized CWM droplets are sampled on the thin white layer of magnesium oxide by the emergency sampling shutter. The sampled coal particles on magnesium oxide layers are collected into test tubes and dispersed completely by Ultra-Sonicator. The size distribution of coal particles inside droplets are measured by Coulter Counter. The presence of coal particle inside the impressions of droplets on magnesium oxide layer are investigated by photo technique. There are quite many droplets which do not have any coal particles. Those are just water droplets, not CWM droplets. The population ratio of droplets without coal particles to toal number of droplets is strongly affected by the mean size of coal particle distribution in slurry and this ration becomes bigger number as the mean size of coal particles be larger. The size distribution of coal particles inside CWM droplets is not even and depends on the size of droplet. Experimental results show that the larger CWM droplets has droplets has bigger mean value of particle size distribution. This trend becomes more evident as the atomizing air pressure is raised and the mean size of coal particles in CWM slurry is bigger. That is, the distribution of coal particles inside CWM dropolets is very much affected by the atomizing air pressure and the mean size of pulverized coal particles in CWM slurry.

본 연구는 560 MWe급 접선연소식 미분탄 보일러에서 공기단계연소에 의한 연소 및 NOx 배출 특성과 슬래깅성에 대하여 분석한 것이다. 이를 위해 고급 석탄 연소 모델이 적용된 전산유체역학(CFD) 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 전체 연소공기의 당량비(SR)는 1.2로 고정하고, 버너 영역의 SR을 0.94에서 0.995까지 변화시켰다. 공기 배분의 변화에 따라 버너 영역 및 열교환기의 온도 및 전열량 분포가 변하지만 보일러의 전체 효율은 거의 동일하게 나타났다. 버너 영역의 SR이 0.94로 낮아지면 Fuel NO의 생성이 억제되어 절탄기 출구 NOx 배출량은 20% 감소하나, 미연분과 슬래깅성에는 큰 영향이 나타나지 않았다. 따라서, 이 보일러에서 NOx 배출 저감을 위해 공기배분을 조절하여 버너 영역의 SR를 낮추고 상부연소공기(OFA)의 값을 높여 운전하는 것이 타당함을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 화학발광 계측을 통한 연소화염의 당량비, 열방출율과 같은 물리량 판단에 대한 최신 연구결과를 정리 분석하였다. 현대의 연소장치는 연소의 동적 안정성 증대 및 공해물질 배출억제를 위해 세밀한 제어가 필요하다. 화학발광 세기 계측을 통한 물리량 파악은 그 적용에 있어서 많은 상대적 장점을 지니고 있다. 그러나 본 방법은 당량비, 연소압력, 입구온도, 난류세기, 연료 종류 등에 의해 많은 영향을 받는다. 연구결과를 종합하면, 메탄/공기 예혼합 화염에서 $CH^*/OH^*$가 연료 과농 조건을 제외하고 당량비와 밀접한 관계가 있다. 또한 넓은 공간에서 측정된 $OH^*$, $CH^*$ 신호는 전체 열방출율과 비례관계를 갖는 것으로 판단된다.
