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.

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.

충격파가 초음속 수소-공기 제트화염의 화염 안정한계에 미치는 영향을 충격파의 강도와 위치를 변화시키면서 연구하였다. 이러한 목적으로 마하수 2.5의 초음속 연소기 벽면에 쐐기를 부착시켜 경사 충격파를 발생시켰다. 본 실험은 충격파가 초음속 화염에 미치는 영향을 연구한 최초의 실험연구이다. 쉬릴렌 가시화 사진과 벽면 정압, 화염 안정 한계를 측정하였으며 충격파가 없는 경우와 비교하였다. 보염 재순환 영역에 충격파를 적절히 간섭시킴으로써 화염 안정 한계가 대폭 개선되었다. 화염 안정한계가 대폭 향상된 이유는 충격파에 의해 발생한 역압력구배로 화염안정화에 중요한 아음속 재순환 영역의 크기가 증대된 때문으로 여겨진다.
