IEEE802.11 무선랜은 공항과 같은 공공의 장소에서 널리 사용되고 있으며 캠퍼스나 회사의 네트워킹 영역을 증대하고 있고, 최근 메쉬 네트워크나 다른 3세대 이동 통신 네트워크과의 통합 형태의 네트워크를 구성하기 위한 중요 기술로 주목 받고 있다. 무선랜 환경에서의 액세스 포인트(AP) 간 로드 밸런싱 문제는 효율적인 자원 관리나 트래픽의 QoS 지원을 위해 중요한 문제이지만, 기존 연구들에서는 노드가 네트워크에 진입하는 시점이나 로밍 시점에 로드 밸런싱을 위한 AP 선택에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 본 논문에서는 AP의 가용성 모니터링을 통해 진정한 의미의 로드 밸런싱을 위한 AP-개시 플로우 리다이렉션 메커니즘을 제안한다. AP 자신의 가용자원이 거의 사용하게 되면, 즉 특정 임계치 이상 사용하게 되면, 자신이 서비스하고 있는 노드가 로밍 가능한 이웃 AP들에게 그들의 가용자원에 관하여 쿼리를 하여 entropy나 chi-square와 같은 통계적인 방법을 이용하여 AP 간 트래픽 분포도에 대해 계산하고, 리다이렉트할 플로우들을 결정하여 선택된 노드들을 트리거하여 플로우 리다이렉션을 수행한다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 플로우 리다이렉션 메커니즘이 다양한 측면에서의 성능향상을 입증할 수 있었다.

Propagation characteristics of tribrachial flames have been studied numerically in a two-dimensional fuel/oxidizer mixing layer. A flame is initiated by imposing a high temperature ignition source. Subsequent propagation of a tribrachial flame is traced. The flow redirection effect at the leading edge of a tribrachial flame increases the propagation speed beyond the corresponding stoichiometric laminar burning velocity. The effect of mixture fraction gradient on the propagation speed of a tribrachial flame is analyzed in a mixing layer considering that mixture fraction gradient increases as a tribrachial flame propagates toward upstream. As the flame curvature at the leading edge increases with decreasing mixture fraction gradient, the flow redirection effect becomes more pronounced on the flame propagation speed. As a result, the propagation speed of a tribrachial flame increases with decreasing mixture fraction gradient.

부상화염에 대한 연소반응 유동 수치해석을 수행하여 부상높이에 대한 기존 연구 결과들과 비교를 통하여 수치해석 결과의 신뢰성을 검정하였다. 화염전파속도를 결정하는 유동방향변환점을 기존의 연구에서처럼 연료분출속도에 상관없이 일률적인 위치로 선정할 경우 많은 오차를 유발하기 때문에 본 연구에서는 부상화염에서 이론당량비선을 따라 유동속도와 스칼라 소산율 특성을 살펴보았고 화염전파속도를 선정하는 유동방향변환점을 타당하게 선정하는 방법을 정립하였다. 이를 토대로 화염전파속도와 스칼라소산율의 관계식을 도출하여 부상화염에서 화염전파속도 특성을 규명하였다.

In the paper we investigate characteristics of a transitional behavior from a premixed flame to a triple flame in a lifted flame according to the change of equivalence ratio. In previous study, we showed that the stabilized laminar lifted flame regime is categorized by regimes of premixed flame, triple flame and critical flame. A gas-chromatograph is used to measure concentration field, a smoke-wire system is used to measure streak line, and a PIV system is used to measure velocity field in lifted flame. In the visualization experiment of smoke wire, the flow divergence and redirection reappeared in premixed flame as well as triple flame. Thus we cannot express the flame front of lifted flame has a behavior of triple flame with only flow divergence and redirection. In PIV measurement, flow velocity for those three flames has minimum value at the tip of flame front. To differentiate triple flame and premixed flame, $\Phi$ value of partially premixed fraction is employed. The partially premixed fraction $\Phi$ was constant in premixed flame. In critical flame small gradient appears over the whole regime. In triple flame, typical diffusion flame shape is obtained as parabolic distribution type due to diffusion flame trailing.

A premixed flame propagating in a tube suffers strong variation in its shape and structure depending on boundary conditions. The effects of thermal boundary conditions and flow fields on flame propagation are numerically investigated. Navier-Stokes equations and species equations are solved with a one-step irreversible global reaction model of methane-air mixture. Finite volume method using an adaptive grid method is applied to investigate the flame structure. In the case of an adiabatic wall, friction force on the wall significantly affected the flame structure while in the case of an isothermal wall, local quenching near the wall dominated flame shapes and propagation. In both cases, variations of flow fields occurred not only in the near field of the flame but also within the flame itself, which affected propagation velocities. This study provides an overview of the characteristics of flames in small tubes at a steady state.

We have presented characteristics of a transitional behavior from a premixed flame to a triple flame in a lifted flame according to the change of equivalence ratio. The experimental apparatus consisted of a slot burner and a contraction nozzle for a lifted flame. As concentration difference of the both side of slot burner increases, the shape of flame changed from a premixed flame to a triple flame, and the liftoff height is decreased to the minimum value and then increase again. Around this minimum point, it is confirmed a transition regime from premixed flame to triple flame. Consequently, the experimental results of the liftoff height, flame curvature and luminescence intensity showed that the stabilized laminar lifted flame regime is categorized by regimes of premixed flame, triple flame and critical flame. In the visualization experiment of smoke wire, the flow divergence and redirection reappeared in premixed flame as well as triple flame. Thus we cannot express the flame front of lifted flame has a behavior of triple flame with only flow divergence and redirection. To differentiate triple flame and premixed flame, ${\Phi}$ value of partially premixed fraction is employed. The partially premixed fraction ${\Phi}$ was constant in premixed flame. In critical flame small gradient appears over the whole regime. In triple flame, typical diffusion flame shape is obtained as parabolic distribution type due to diffusion flame trailing.

This work aimed to evaluate the feasibility of biohydrogen production from Barley Straw and Miscanthus. The primary obstacle in plant biomass decomposition is the recalcitrance of the biomass itself. Plant cell walls consist of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, which make the plant robust to decomposition. However, the hyperthermophilic bacterium, Caldicellulosiruptor bescii, can efficiently utilize lignocellulosic feedstocks (Barley Straw and Miscanthus) for energy production, and C. bescii can now be metabolically engineered or isolated to produce more hydrogen and other biochemicals. In the present study, two strains, C. bescii JWCB001 (wild-type) and JWCB018 (ΔpyrFA Δldh ΔcbeI), were tested for their ability to increase hydrogen production from Barley Straw and Miscanthus. The JWCB018 resulted in a redirection of carbon and electron (carried by NADH) flow from lactate production to acetate and hydrogen production. JWCB018 produced ~54% and 63% more acetate and hydrogen from Barley Straw, respectively than its wild-type counterpart, JWCB001. Also, 25% more hydrogen from Miscanthus was obtained by the JWCB018 strain with 33% more acetate relative to JWCB001. It was supported that the engineered C. bescii, such as the JWCB018, can be a parental strain to get more hydrogen and other biochemicals from various biomass.
