The dynamic behaviors of counterflow non-premixed flame have been investigated experimentally to study effects of heat losses and Lewis number on edge flame oscillation, which result from the advancing and retreating edge flame motion of outer flame edge at low strain rate flame. For low strain rate flame, lateral conduction heat loss in addition to radiation heat loss could be more remarkable than the others. Oscillatory instabilities appear at fuel Lewis number greater than unity. But excessive lateral conduction heat loss causes edge flame instability even at fuel Lewis number less than unity. The excessive heat loss caused by the smaller burner diameter in which the flame length is an indicator of lateral conduction heat loss extends the region of flame oscillation and accelerates oscillatory instability in comparison to the previous study with the burner diameter of 26mm. Extinction behaviors quite different from the previous study are also addressed.

The objective of the present study is to actively control the flame oscillation in the experimental lean premixed methane burner by the phase-controlled sound waves. The authors propose the methodology of generating the phase-controlled sound waves by directly sensing the preferential frequency and generating the sensor-triggered sound waves with fixed optimum phase difference with the flame oscillation. The real-time controller is implemented in the present study, and the combustion noise reduction is achieved. The reduction is 20dB at peak frequency and 13dB in the OASPL.

In an IGCC plant, one of the most important issues on fuel flexibility in the lean premixed combustor is combustion instabilities. They are characterized by large amplitude pressure oscillations which are caused by unsteady heat release from the flames. The relationship between the unsteady heat release and flow oscillation can be qualitatively and quantitatively explained by flame transfer function. This paper introduces combustion instability modeling methods based on the flame transfer function approach.

본 연구에서는 하이브리드 로켓의 추력 제어 연소실험을 통하여 추력 제어 성능 향상을 위한 연구를 진행하였다. 추력 제어 명령에 따라 니들밸브와 결합된 스텝모터의 구동을 제어함으로써 산화제 유량을 조절하는 시스템을 구축하였다. 하이브리드 로켓 연소실험에서 사용된 산화제로는 기체산소($GO_2$)를 사용하였으며 추진제는 PE(Polyethylene)와 PC(Polycarbonate)를 사용하였다. 추력 제어 연소실험 초기에 발생되었던 추력섭동(Thrust Oscillation) 현상의 개선과 낮은 응답속도의 향상을 위해 연소실험 과정에서 산화제 배관의 유속 변화를 측정하고 원인을 분석하였다. 이를 보완한 연소 실험을 통하여 추력명령의 ${\pm}1$ N 이내에서 추력이 안정적으로 제어되었다.

The spray and acoustic characteristics by the self-oscillation of a swirl coaxial injector were experimentally studied. The self-oscillation of a swirl coaxial injector is defined as pressure and flowrate oscillations by a time-delayed feedback between liquid and gas phase and has strong influences on atomization and mixing processes. Hence the occurrence and effect of the self-oscillation are measured using shadow photography technique, acoustic test and PDPA. The occurrence of self-oscillation largely depends on the injection conditions, such as pressure drop of liquid phase and relative momentum ratio. From the experimental results, self-oscillation occurs when the momentum of gas phase is enough large and the smaller the pressure drop of liquid phase is, the better self-oscillation occurs at the same momentum ratio. The self-oscillation is also affected by injector geometries, increasing the recess length results in the expansion of self-oscillation region and the increase of sound pressure level. The self-oscillation of a swirl coaxial injector accompanies a high intensity scream and this scream may provide harmful disturbances to combustion processes. Self-oscillation leads to strong changes in the drop size distribution and smoothly varies the slope of radial SMD distribution.

Combustion instability is critical problem in developing liquid rocket engine. There have been many efforts to solve this problem. In this study, the method was sought through the injector as part of these efforts to suppress combustion instability. If the injector can suppress the disturbance coming from the supply line as a kind of buffer it will serve to reduce combustion instability. Especially we target at gas propellant oscillation in gas-centered swirl coaxial injector. The phenomenon is simulated with acoustic excitation of speaker. The film thickness response at injector exit was measured by using a liquid film electrode. Also the response of spray to the disturbance was observed by high-speed photography. Gas-liquid momentum flux ratio and the frequency of feeding gas oscillation were changed to investigate the effect of these experimental parameters. The trend of response by varying these parameters and the cause of weak points was studied to suggest the better design of injector for suppressing combustion instability.

Experimental study is conducted to identify the existence of a shrinking flame disk and to clarify its flame characteristics through the inspection of critical mole fraction at flame extinction and edge flame oscillation at low strain rate flames. Experiments are made as varying global strain rate, velocity ratio, and burner distance. The transition from a shrinking flame disk to a flame hole is verified through gradient measurements of maximum flame temperature. The evidence of edge flame oscillation in flame disk is also provided through numerical simulation in microgravity. It is found at low strain rate flame disks in normal gravity that buoyancy effects are importantly contributing to lateral heat loss to burner rim, and is proven through critical mole fraction at flame extinction, edge flame oscillation, and measurements of flame temperature gradient along flame disk surface.

하이브리드 로켓의 후연소실(post chamber)은 액화된 연료의 추가적 연소를 유도하여 엔탈피 상승으로 이어지도록 한다. 후연소실이 있는 하이브리드 로켓에 파라핀 왁스를 연료로 사용하는 경우, 연소초기에만 비정상 연소 압력진동이 관찰된다. 본 연구는 비정상 연소 압력진동의 발생과 액적의 추가적 연소 사이의 상관관계를 확인하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위해 후연소실 연소를 가시화하고 POD 기법을 활용한 이미지 분석을 수행하였다. 또한 모드 재구성을 통해 액적의 거동을 포함하고 있는 모드를 분리하여 비정상적인 연소압력의 진동과 액적의 연소 사이의 상관관계를 조사하였다. 일련의 실험에서는 후연소실로 유입되는 액화 연료량과 액적발생을 조절하여 비정상 연소압력 진동의 변화를 유도하였다. 실험결과에 의하면 파라핀 왁스의 연소 초기에만 관찰되는 비정상 연소압력 진동은 후연소실에서 발생하는 액적의 추가적인 연소가 그 발생원인임을 알 수 있다.

Experiments in methane-air low strain rate counterflow diffusion flames diluted with nitrogen have been conducted to study the behavior of flame extinction and edge flame oscillation in which flame length is less than the burner diameter and thus lateral conduction heat loss in addition to radiative heat loss could be remarkable at low global strain rates. Critical mole fraction at flame extinction is examined with velocity ratio and global strain rate. Onset conditions of edge flame oscillation and flame oscillation modes are also provided with global strain rate and added nitrogen mole fraction to fuel stream (fuel Lewis number). It is seen that flame length is closely relevant to lateral heat loss, and this affects flame extinction and edge flame oscillation considerably. Edge flame oscillations in low strain rate flames are experimentally described well and are categorized into three: a growing oscillation mode, a decaying oscillation mode, and a harmonic oscillation mode. The regime of flame oscillation is also provided at low strain rate flames. Important contribution of lateral heat loss even to edge flame oscillation is clarified.
