Static and non-static flame methods were used to measure the laminar burning velocity of methane, ethane and natural gas. The flame slot angle and velocity of unburned gas mixture were determined by Schlieren method and LDV, respectively, for static flame. The diameter of nozzle was selected as 11 mm. The experimental results containing the stretch effect showed that the maximum burning velocities were 41.5 for natural gas, 40.8 for methane and 43.4 cm/sec for ethane on equivalence ratio of 1.1. Constant volume combustion chamber was also used for non-static flame. The propagation process of flame front was visualized by high speed camera during constant pressure. The maximum burning velocity of natural gas was determined as 42.1 cm/sec on equivalence ratio of 1.15.

Characteristics of lifted flames for highly diluted propane and methane with nitrogen in coflowing air is experimentally investigated. In case of propane, for various fuel mole fractions and jet velocities, three distinctive types of flames are observed; nozzle attached flames, stationary lifted flames, and oscillating lifted flames. When fuel jet velocity is much smaller than coflow velocity, the base of nozzle attached flame has a tribrachial structure unlike usual coflow difusion flames. Based on the balance mechanism of the propagation speed of tribrachial flame with flow velocity, jet velocity is scaled with stoichiometric laminar burning velocity. Results show that there exists two distinctive lifted flame stabilization; stabilization in the developing region and in the developed region of jets depending on initial fuel mole fraction. It has been found that lifted flame can be stabilized for fuel velocity even smaller than stoichiometric laminar burning velocity. This can be attributed to the buoyancy effect and flow visualization supports it. Lifted flames are also observed for methane diluted with nitrogen. The lifted flames only exist in the developing region of jet.

The stabilization mechanism of turbulent, lifted jet flames in a non-premixed condition has been studied experimentally. The objectives are to explain the phenomenon of a liftoff height decreasing as increasing fuel velocity and to reveal the mechanisms of flame stability Hydrogen was varied from 100 to 300 m/s and a coaxial air was fixed at 16 m/s with a coflow air less than 0.1 m/s. The technique of PIV and OH PLIF was used simultaneously with CCD and ICCD cameras. It was found that the liftoff height of the jet decreased with an increased fuel jet exit velocity. The leading edge at the flame base was moving along the stoichiometric line. Finally we confirmed that the stabilization of lifted hydrogen diffusion flames is related with a turbulent intensity, which means combustion is occurred where the local flow velocity is equal to the turbulent flame propagation velocity.

The behaviors of flame propagation and quenching ability in a pipe were investigated to make a design criteria of flame arrester. The effects of the number of wire gauzes and free area on the quenching ability were discussed. Experimental results showed that the flame velocity was important factor of the quenching ability. The flame velocity in case of closed pipe was increased about twenty times faster then that of opened. The quenching ability was increased about 10% with 3% decrease of free area and it was changed significantly by the sealing condition of the pipe end. The quenching flame velocity can be estimated by using experimental equations.

The tribrachial flame in laminar coflow jet has been investigated experimentally with unsteady propagating condition. With adopting various visualization techniques, including OH-PLIF, Rayleigh Scattering technique, it was confirmed that the location of tribrachial point is on the inclined surface of flame and the propagation speed of tribrachial flame was significantly affected by the velocity gradient.

For the prevent of fire accident or explosion disasters from inflammable gas and vapour, flame arresters are used in chemical equipment, oil tank or other similar installation. The flame arresters have been used mainly wire gauze type. Wire gauze type flame arrestes is affected several factors. We have know that the quenching ability has a great of difference the preference in accordance with flame velocity, direction of flame propagation and wire net of mesh and number of qauze and introduce examination result data quoated from the abroad.

Burning velocity of methane-air mixtures with water vapor have been measured to study the process of flame propagation using schlieren photographs and computation. The computations were carried out for the burning velocity using premix code of Chemkin program to compare the experimental results. The quantity of water vapor contained were changed 5% and 10% of total mixtures, and equivalence ratio of mixtures between 0.8 and 1.2 were tested under the ambient temperature 323K and 373K. The results showed little difference between these two methods, the burning velocity was decreased by increasing the water vapor contents due to the interruption of flame development. And, the effect of ambient temperature was less significant by increasing the water contents on the burning velocity.

질소 희석 가스가 수소화염의 화염안정성에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 연구하였다. 연료는 수소이며 수소화염을 부상시키기 위하여 동축공기를 사용하였다. 이때 수소의 속도는 200 m/s이고 동축공기의 속도는 16 m/s로 고정하였다. 질소 희석 가스는 연료 공급라인에 주입되었으며 전체 연료 부피의 0$\sim$20%까지 주입하였다. 화염구조분석을 위하여 PIV/OH PLIF 동시측정 기법을 사용하였다. 수소 난류 확산화염 화염안정성 실험을 통하여 질소 가스 주입에 따라 부상화염 높이는 증가하였으며, 난류 화염 전파속도는 감소하였다. 그리고 난류 화염전파속도는 난류강도의 함수로 표현될 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 정상초음파장의 간섭에 의해 야기되는 예혼합화염의 구조 변이를 규명하기 위한 실험 결과를 제시한다. 화염전파를 관찰하기 위해 슐리렌 기법을 이용하였으며, 초기압력 및 연소챔버 개방 유무에 따른 화염선단의 형태 및 화염 전파속도를 고찰하였다. 정상초음파장에 의한 화염선단의 찌그러짐이 관찰되었고, 초음파장의 특성이 변하지 않는 한 그 수직방향으로의 위치는 일정하였다. 정상초음파의 영향을 받은 화염은 전파할수록 구조적 변화가 심해졌으며, 전파속도 또한 증가하였다. 반사파와 정상초음파의 영향으로 연꽃모양의 화염(lotus flame)이 형성되는 사실을 발견할 수 있었다.

A visualization study using the schlieren method is adopted in an optically-accessible, cylindrical constant volume combustion chamber to identify the mechanism of ignition energy and ignition system interaction in spark ignited, lean gasoline-air mixture. In order to research the effects of ignition system on flame propagation, two kinds of ignition system are designed, and several kinds of spark plugs are tested and evaluated. To control the discharge energy, the dwell time is varied. The initial flame development is quantified in terms of 2-D images which provides information about the projected flame area and development velocity as a function of ignition system and discharge energy. The results show that high ignition energy and extended spark plug gap can shorten the combustion duration in lean mixtures. The material, diameter and configuration of electrodes the flame development by changing the transfer efficiency from electrical energy to chemical energy and discharge energy. However these factors do not affect of flame development as much a ignition energy or extended gap does.
