삼지화염의 화염안정화 메커니즘 중 중요한 한 가지는 화염전파속도이다. 화염전파속도의 정량적인 규명을 위해 Bilger는 층류 유동이론에 근거하여 혼합분율 기울기에 비선형적으로 연관된 삼지화염 전파속도를 실험으로 제시하였다. 그러나 지금까지의 연구에서는 화염의 곡률에 따른 삼지화염 전파속도에 관하여 논의된 바가 없기에, 본 논문에서 화염의 곡률에 따른 화염전파속도의 연관성을 제시하고자 하였다. 본 논문의 결과로 층류부상화염의 부상높이가 연료의 출구속도와 노즐의 직경에 따라서 결정됨을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 정지된 부상화염의 유동속도에 비례하는 연료의 출구속도에 곡률의 크기가 비례함을 보였고, 또 층류부상화염의 부상높이가 높아질수록 곡률반경의 크기가 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 곡률효과의 중요성이 인식되어야 하며 화염안정화 메커니즘을 표현하기 위해 제안된 Bilger의 제안식이 곡률효과를 고려하여 수정되어야한다.

Experiment is conducted to grasp effects of flame curvature on flame behavior in laminar lifted-jet flames. Nozzle diameters of 0.1 and 1.0mm are used to vary flame curvature of edge flame. There exist three types of edge flame oscillation. These edge flame oscillations may be caused by radial heat loss at all flame conditions, by fuel Lewis numbers near or larger than unity with the help of appreciable radial conduction heat loss, and by buoyancy effects. These are confirmed by the analysis of oscillation frequencies. It is however seen that the change of lift-off height through edge-flame oscillation is mainly due to radial heat loss irrespective of Lewis number and buoyancy.

The PSC (Propagation of Surfaces under Curvature) algorithm is adapted to the simulation of a flame propagation in a premixed medium including the effect of volume expansion across the flame front due to exothermicity. The algorithm is further developed to incorporate the flame anchoring scheme. This methodology is successfully applied to numerically simulate the response of an anchored V-flame to two strong free stream vortices, in accord with experimental observations of a passage of Karman vortex street through a flame. The simulation predicts flame cusping when a strong vortex pair interacts with flame front. In other words, this algorithm handles merging and breaking of the flame front and provides an accurate calculation of the flame curvature which is needed for flame propagation computation and estimation of curvature-dependent flame speeds.

Flame surface area is a critical parameter determining turbulent flame speed. Three-dimensionaldirect numerical simulations (DNS) were conducted to figure out the evolution process of flame surface area. Fully compressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved to reproduce premixed flame embedded in isotropic decaying turbulent flow. The tangential straining and curvature of propagating surface affect development of flame area. In this study, four different turbulent intensity flows and three different Le number flames are investigated to force changes in straining and curvature effects. Consistent results are obtained for the probability density functions (PDF) of strain and curvature with previous researches. It is revealed that displacement speed, which is a speed of flame surface relative to unburnt flow, controls the balance between sink and source of flame surface area.

The effect of secondary flow on both methane/air and propane/air premixed flame was investigated experimentally. By changing the radius of curvature, various flame behavior was observed. In the V-bend nozzles, flame surface is deformed from axisymmetry. As the exit velocity increased, flame lifted off partially. When the radius of curvature of the V-bend increased, the region where premixed flame is entirely on the rim increased. Since the axial velocity field is changed due to the secondary flow effect, comparison of V-bend and straight tube with the same diameter shows larger V-bend nozzle exit velocity for both flash back and flame blowout. The flame characteristics are mapped with a equivalence ratio, a velocity, and a nozzle radius of curvature. To identify physical reasoning on the flame surface deformation, numerical calculations are conducted. OH radical distributions in flames are visualized by PLIF technique.

Characteristics of a laminar diffusion flame placed near wall in microgravity have been numerically analyzed in a two-dimension. The fuel for the flame is $C_2H_4$. The flame is initiated by imposing a high temperature ignition source. The flow field, temperature field, and flame shape in microgravity diffusion flame are detailed. Especially, effects of surrounding air velocity and fuel injection velocity on the microgravity diffusion flame have been discussed accounting for standoff distance. And, the effect of curvature rate has been also studied. The results showed that velocities in a diffusion flame were overshoot because of volumetric expansion and distribution of temperature showed regularity by free-buoyancy This means that the diffusion flame in microgravity is very stable, while the flame in normal gravity is not regular and unstable due to buoyancy. Standoff distance decreases with increase in surrounding air velocity and with decrease in fuel injection velocity. With increasing curvature rate, the position of reaction rate moves away the wall.

The level surface approach for following flame front propagating in a premixed medium is adapted to incorporate the flameholding scheme. This allows one to follow the flameholding scheme. This allows one to follow the motion of an N-1 dimensional surface in N space dimensions. The flame speed may be an arbitrary function of flame geometry and the front is passively advected by an underlying flow field. This algorithm provides and accurate calculation of the flame curvature which may be needed for the flame propagation computation and thereby the estimation of curvature-dependent flame speeds. A numerical demonstration of this method-ology is applied to simulate the excursion of an anchored V-flame and locate the final equilibrium position.
