The flame lengths and NOx emission characteristics of syngas $H_2$/CO turbulent non-premixed jet flames were investigated. The flame length which is the main parameter governs NOx emission was studied for various syngas compositions. The flame length was compared with previous correlation between Froude number and flame height and it shows that they have good agreements. It was confirmed that the turbulent jet flames herein investigated are in the region of buoyancy-momentum transition. NOx emission was reduced with increased Reynolds number and CO contents in syngas fuel and with decreased fuel nozzle diameter which is attributed by decreased flame residence time. Previous EINOx scaling based on flame residence time of $L_f^3/(d_f^2U_f)$ satisfies only the jet flame in momentum-dominated region, not buoyancy-momentum transition region. The simplified flame residence time ($L_f/U_f$) was adopted in modified EINOx scaling. The modified scaling satisfies the jet flames not only in momentum-dominated region but in buoyancy-momentum transition region. The scaling is also satisfied with $H_2$/CO syngas jet flames.

EINOx scaling for $H_2/CO$ non-premixed turbulent jet flame was conducted. NOx concentration and flame length were measured simultaneously with varying flow conditions. Flame length increases with Reynolds number which means the flames in buoyancy-momentum transition region. We assessed the previous Chen & Driscoll's scaling with present results. However, the scaling cannot satisfy the present results. We proposed new scaling which is addressed the simplified flame residence time. The new scaling satisfies the results of $H_2/CO$ syngas flame as well as pure hydrogen flames.

Many previous works have been performed to provide correlations of flame length, theoretically and experimentally. Most of these results studied were conducted in vertical turbulent flame with no coaxial air condition. The present study analyzes the flame length scaling with coaxial air. In turbulent hydrogen non-premixed jet flames with coaxial air, flame length scaling theoretically proposed so far has been related with the concept of a far-field equivalent source. At high coaxial air to fuel velocity ratio, $U_A/U_F$, however, this scaling theory has some difference with experimental flame length data. This difference is understood to be due to the fact that the theory is based on far-field notion, while the effect of coaxial air on jet flame occurs in the region near the nozzle exit. Therefore, we define effective jet density $P_{eff}$ involving the concept of near-field so that effective jet diameter can be extended to the near-field region. In this condition, we modify the correlation and compare with experimental data.

희석된 동축공기 수소 난류확산화염에서 연료의 구성이 화염 길이에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 화염의 길이는 동축공기와 연료 제트의 속도비의 함수로 표현하였고, 이론적 예측과 비교하였다. 네 조건의 연료 구성에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 동축공기 제트 화염의 길이 예측을 위해 near-field concept에서의 유효 직경을 이용한 스케일링 관계식을 유도하였다. 실험 결과 가시 화염의 길이는 이론적 예측과 크게 일치하였다. 여러 연료 조건에서의 희석된 수소 제트의 화염에서도 스케일링 분석은 유효하였다.

The characteristics of NOx emissions in pure hydrogen nonpremixed flames with coaxial air are analyzed numerically for the three model cases of coaxial air flames classified by varying coaxial air velocity and/or fuel velocity. In coaxial air flames, the flame length is reduced by coaxial air and can be represented as a function of the ratio of coaxial air to fuel velocity. Coaxial air decreases flame reaction zone, resulting in reducing flame residence time significantly. Finally, the large reduction of EINOx is achieved by the decrease of the flame residence time. It is found that because coaxial air can break down the flame self-similarity law, appropriate scaling parameters, which are different from those in the simple jet flames, are recommended. In coaxial air flames, the flame residence time based on the flame volume produces better results than that based on a cube of the flame length. And some portion of deviations from the 1/2 scaling law by coaxial air may be due to the violation of the linear relationship between the flame volume and the flame reaction zone.

Hydrogen safety is one of the key technical issue with growing attention on utilization of hydrogen energy. This study is aimed to predict behavior of momentum-controlling buoyant jet and flame caused by hydrogen leakage from a high pressured tank. Approximate solutions were derived for the case of turbulent buoyant jet and diffusion flame in still air. In case of hydrogen jet with low Froude number (100-4000), computed jet trajectories were compared with experimental data and showed good agreement with them. Jet and flame trajectories and flame length of hydrogen are predicted and compared with the buoyant flame of propane. The results well show that buoyancy is dominant in the range of low Froude number, while initial momentum is dominant in the range of high Froude number. That effect is more distinct for hydrogen flame than the case of propane.

동축공기 수소 난류 확산화염에서 선회류가 NOx에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 공기와의 혼합을 증가시키기 위해 동축공기관에 스월러의 각도를 30, 45, 60, $90^{\circ}$로 바꾸어가며 화염길이와 질소산화물 배출수준을 측정하였다. 연료 속도를 85.7~160.2 m/s, 동축공기 속도는 7.4~14.4 m/s로 조절하였다. 실험을 통해 동축 공기 속도 증가에 따라 화염길이와 질소산화물 배출수준은 증가하였고, 회전류 증가에 따라 감소함을 관찰하였다. EINOx에 미치는 동축공기와 회전류 영향을 상사하기 위하여 far-field 개념의 유효직경($d_{F,eff}$)을 도입하여 동축공기와 선회류에 의한 혼합효과를 표현하였다. 질소산화물 배기배출지표는 화염체류시간(${\sim}{\tau_R}^{1/2.8}$)과 전체 신장률(${\sim}{S_G}^{1/2.8}$)에 영향을 받았다.

등유 풀화재의 화염과 연소에 의해 생성되는 연기의 특성에 대해서 조사하였다. 다양한 발열량을 위해 직경을 변하게 할 수 있는 팬버너를 제작하였다. 풀화재를 조사하기 위해 화염 높이와 떨림 주파수를 분석하였다. 실험적으로 풀화염 높이는 이론적 상관관계 증가율과 잘 일치하지만, 정량적으로는 등유의 연소율에 기인하여 과대 평가된 값을 보인다. 연기의 특성을 조사하기 위해 세 가지의 실험방법을 사용하였다. 먼저 가스분석기를 이용하여 연소시 발생되는 주요 가스 농도를 측정하였는데 이산화탄소의 생성과 산소의 소모율은 풀화염의 열방출율에 비례하지만, 일산화탄소의 발생에 대한 경향성은 발견할 수 없었다. 연기의 매연입자를 광감쇄법과 TEM 이미지를 이용하여 특성을 조사하였다 연기밀도는 발열량의 증가에 따라 매우 급격히 증가하였고, 등유 풀화염에서 발생한 매연입자들은 자연적인 연소조건임에도 불구하고 역확산 제트화염에서 생성된 매연과 유사한 형태와 탄화정도를 보임이 관찰되었다.
