Controlled Auto-ignition (CAI) combustion processes can be broadly divided between a CAI process that is applied to four-cycle engines and a CAI process that is applied to two-cycle engines. The former process is generally referred to as Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) combustion and the later process as Active Thermo-Atmosphere Combustion (ATAC) The region of stable engine operation differs greatly between these two processes, and it is thought that the elucidation of their differences and similarities could provide useful information for expanding the operation region of HCCI combustion. In this research, the same two-cycle engine was operated under both the ATAC and HCCI combustion processes to compare their respective combustion characteristics. The results indicated that the ignition timing was less likely to change in the ATAC process in relation to changes in the fuel octane number than it was in the HCCI combustion process.

The present study is mainly motivated to investigate the vaporization, auto-ignition and combustion processes in the high-pressure engine conditions. The high-pressure vaporization model is developed to realistically simulate the spray dynamics and vaporization characteristics in high-pressure and high-temperature environment. The interaction between chemistry and turbulence is treated by employing the Representative Interactive Flamelet (RIF) Model. The detailed chemistry of 114 elementary steps and 44 chemical species is adopted for the n-heptane/air reaction. In order to account for the spatial inhomogeneity of the scalar dissipation rate, the multiple RIFs are introduced. Numerical results indicate that the RIF approach together with the high-pressure vaporization model successfully predicts the ignition delay time and location as well as the essential features of a spray ignition and combustion processes.

In order to account for the spatial inhomogeneity of the scalar dissipation rate, the multi-RIF is used. The effect of the number of RIF on ignition delay is discussed in detail. Numerical results indicate that the present RIF approach successfully predicts the ignition delay time as well as the essential features of a spray auto-ignition process.

The low-emission and high-performance diesel combustion is an important issue in the combustion research community, In order to understand the detailed diesel flame involving the complex physical processes, it is quite desirable to diesel spray dynamics, auto-ignition and spray flame propagation. Dynamics of fuel spray is a crucial element for air-fuel mixture formation, flame stabilization and pollutant formation, In the present study, the diesel RCM (Rapid Compression Machine) and the Electric Control injection system have been designed and developed to investigate the effects of injection pressure, injection timing, and intake air temperature on spray dynamics and diesel combustion processes, In terms of the macroscopic spray combustion characteristics, it is observed that the fuel jet atomization and the droplet breakup processes become much faster by increasing the injection pressure and the spray angle, With increasing the cylinder pressure, there is a tendency that the of spray pattern in the downstream region tends to be spherical due to the increase of air density and the corresponding drag force, Effects of intake temperature and injection pressure on auto-ignition is experimently analysed and discussed in detail.

고농도 과산화수소를 산화제로 이용하는 하이브리드 로켓의 자연 점화 연구를 수행하였다. 별도의 점화기 없이 촉매 반응을 통한 과산화수소 분해가스를 파라핀 및 폴리에틸렌에 분사함으로서 점화를 하였고 연속적인 재점화 및 즉각적인 점화 특성을 확인하였다. 안정적인 연소를 위해 파라핀은 PE에 비해 높은 연소실 특성길이가 요구된 반면, 펄스 응답특성은 점화지연 13 ms, 상승시간 30 ms 로서 폴리에틸렌의 응답성에 비해 두 배 가량 빠른 특성을 보였다.

우드펠릿은 화력발전소 및 화목 보일러의 연료로 많이 사용되고 있으나 발열량이 높은 우드펠릿을 장기간 보관 시 자연발화의 위험성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 시료 용기의 크기에 따라 유량의 변화에 따른 최소자연발화온도와 발화한계온도를 구하였으며, 발화한계온도를 이용하여 겉보기 활성화 에너지를 측정함으로써 우드펠릿의 발화 특성을 예측하였다. 겉보기 활성화 에너지는 190.224 kJ/mol을 구하였다. 용기에 저장된 시료량이 두꺼워질수록 시료 표면에서 중심까지의 열전달이 어려워 발화유도시간이 긴 것으로 나타났으며, 용기의 크기가 같을 경우 유량의 양이 많아 질수록 자연발화온도는 낮아졌다. 또한 시료용기가 커질수록 자연발화온도는 낮아지고 발화유도시간은 길어지는 것으로 나타났다.
