Main purpose of the current paper is to show results of time lag analysis using phase information of flame transfer function in order to predict combustion instabilities in a gas turbine combustor. The flame transfer function (FTF) is modeled using a commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code (Fluent). Comparisons of the modeled flame shapes with the measured ones were made using the optimized heat transfer conditions and combustion models. The FTF modeling results show a quite good agreement with the measurement data in predicting the phase delay (i.e. time lag). Time lag analysis results using the phase of FTF shows better combustion instability prediction accuracy than using time lag calculated from the steady state flame length.

The acoustic optimization of a swirl coaxial jet injector mounted upstream a combustion chamber is investigated to tackle combustion instabilities. The least damped modes are extracted with the help of the dynamic mode decomposition (DMD). The sensitivity of the heat release perturbation to the velocity perturbation for the second longitudinal mode is investigated by combining the Crocco's equation and the inhomogeneous wave equation and computing the flame transfer function (FTF). DMD and FTF results agree in terms of the optimized injector length.

To evaluate the combustion instability of a gas turbine combustor, the DMD technique was applied. The mode frequency results for each fuel composition were compared with FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) results. The damping coefficient, which is a quantitative parameter for combustion instability, was evaluated for 5 experimental cases. The flame transfer function (FTF) was calculated in the most unstable test case. In deriving the FTF, gain and phase were calculated using DMD technique. As a result of the analysis of the OH radical perturbation of the DMD, the heat release fluctuation was the highest at 100 Hz, at which the highest value of gain is observed. The frequency of FFT and FTF were different. In order to clarify the reason for this, FTF for various resonance frequencies was performed and it shows that the pattern of gain was similar to FFT.

An experimental study investigates the flame response characteristics of jet-diffusion flame and premixed flame. The experiment was conducted while varying the amplitude. Flame lengths were quantified for OH chemiluminescence measurement and compared with the result of the flame transfer function. Flame length and flame velocity perturbation were normalized and compared with the result of the flame transfer function. The comparison results appear that velocity perturbation and flame length oscillation of premixed flame show linear behaviors on the other hand jet-diffusion flame, amplitudes are more thant 0.20, shows nonlinear behaviors of flame velocity perturbation and flame length oscillation.

가스터빈 연소기의 연소불안정성을 평가하기 위해 동적모드분해(dynamic mode decomposition, DMD) 기법을 적용하였다. DMD 기법으로 도출된 감쇠계수(damping coefficient)와 FFT 결과를 비교 분석 하였다. 또한 화염전달함수 (flame transfer function, FTF)를 도출하는 실험적 방법에 DMD 기법을 적용하여 분석을 시도하였다. 기존에 제시된 열방출 섭동을 추출하는 방법에서 개선된, OH PLIF 이미지를 이용하여 열방출 섭동을 추출하는 방법을 사용하였다. 분석 결과, 열방출 섭동의 추출 위치에 따라 화염전달함수의 이득(gain)이 변하는 것을 확인하였다.

비예혼합합화염과 예혼합화염의 화염응답특성을 속도섭동을 다양하게 변경하며 실험하였다. 연료로는 수소($H_2$)/메탄($CH_4$)을 50/50 %로 혼합한 혼합연료를 사용하였으며 산화제로는 공기를 사용하였다. OH 자발광(OH fluorescence)을 이용하여 화염이미지를 계측하였으며 PMT(Photo Multiplier Tube)를 이용하여 열 방출량을 계측하였다. 계측된 이미지는 MatLab 코드를 이용하여 수치화하였다. 예혼합화염의 결과에서는 진폭이 증가할수록 화염섭동이 증가하는 경향성을 보았으며 진폭에 따라서 화염전달 함수의 게인 값이 선형적인 거동을 하는 것을 관찰하였다. 비예혼합화염의 화염길이는 진폭이 증가할수록 짧아지는 것을 관찰하였고 게인 값은 진폭에 비선형적인 거동을 하는 것을 확인하였다.

In this study, the reflection coefficient (RC) and the flame transfer function (FTF) were measured by applying acoustic excitation to a duct-type model combustor and were used to predict the frequency of the combustion instability (CI). The RC is a value that varies with the excitation frequency and the geometry of the combustor as well as other factors. Therefore, in this study, an experimentally measured RC was used to improve the accuracy of prediction in the cases of 25% and 75% hydrogen in a mixture of hydrogen and methane as a fuel. When the measured RCs were used, an unstable condition was correctly predicted, which had not been predicted when the RCs had been assumed to be a certain value. The reason why the CI occurred at a specific frequency was also examined by comparing the peak of the FTF with the resonance frequency, which was calculated using Helmholtz's resonator analysis and a resonance frequency equation. As the CI occurred owing to the interaction between the perturbation in the rate of heat release and that in the pressure, the CI was frequent when the peak of the FTF was close to the resonance frequency such that constructive interference could occur.

Combustion instability analysis of partially premixed model gas turbine combustor was conducted with 1D lumped method. Flame Transfer Function(FTF) was obtained with variation of fuel composition by Photo Multiplier Tube(PMT) and Hot Wire Anemometry(HWA). Decreasing instability frequency was observed when combustor length increased and multi-mode instability was confirmed. Instability frequency mode was changed while $H_2$ composition rate was increased and had agreement with experimental value. This work confirms that prediction of longitudinal combustion instability mode of partially premixed combustor is possible using 1D lumped method.

연소불안정 현상은 연소기 내부에서 열발생 섭동과 음향 압력 섭동 사이의 피드백 관계로부터 도출된다. 특히 항공용 엔진에 대한 배출 가스 규제가 강화되면서, 환형 연소기에서의 연소불안정 연구에 대한 관심이 크게 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 환형연소기에서 다양한 음향 모드를 계산할 수 있는 열음향 네트워크 모델을 개발 및 사용하였고, 이때 연소 모델은 화염전달함수를 적용하였다. 이와 같은 네트워크 모델을 사용하여 벤치마킹한 환형연소기의 실험데이터와 비교 분석하여 연소불안정 해석을 진행하였다.

희박 예혼합 연소기는 NOx 배출 규제를 만족시키지만, 연소불안정 현상을 야기하는 단점을 갖고 있다. 이때 연소불안정 현상은 연소기 내부에서 열발생 섭동과 음향 압력 섭동 사이의 피드백 관계로부터 도출된다. 특히 항공용 엔진에 대한 배출 가스 규제가 강화되면서, 환형 연소기에서의 연소불안정 연구에 대한 관심이 크게 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 환형연소기에서의 길이방향 및 환형 방향의 모드까지 계산할 수 있는 열음향 네트워크 모델을 개발 및 사용하였고, 이때 연소 모델은 화염전달함수를 적용하였다. 이와 같은 네트워크 모델을 사용하여 벤치마킹한 환형연소기의 실험데이터와 비교 분석하여 연소불안정 해석을 진행하였다.
