Radiant tube heaters are widely used for indirect heating in heat treatment processes such as continuous annealing line(CAL) or continuous galvanizing line(CGL). Main issues for radiant tube are temperature uniformity, lifetime, thermal efficiency. To achieve higher heat release, the radiant tubes are fired at a higher fuel rate and therefore local overheating occur. A numerical simulation based on a commercial code FLUENT has been performed to investigate local overheating of radiant tube heaters. To minimize local overheating, the effects of radiating fins, flue gas recirculation(FGR), two-stage combustion were investigated. More uniform temperature distribution was achieved in the longitudinal direction within the tube with radiating fins and this contributed to increase the life of radiant tubes. Furthermore, the radiant tube with radiating fins was proven to be more efficient than the one without fins. The effects of flue gas recirculation and two stage combustion on the efficiency of the radiant tube were also considered and the results were presented.

Oxy-fuel combustion is a reliable way for the reduction of pollutants, the higher combustion efficiency and the separation of carbon dioxide. The review of recent research trends and the prospects of oxy-fuel combustion were presented. The difference in characteristics among oxy-fuel combustion, conventional air combustion, oxy-fuel combustion with flue gas recirculation (FGR) technique was investigated. Recent experiments of oxy-fuel combustion with/without FGR were surveyed in various ways which are optimized burner design, flame characteristics, the soot emission, the radiation effect, the NOx reduction and the corrosion of combustor. Numerical simulation is more important in oxy-fuel combustion because flame temperature is so high that conventional measurement devices have a restricted application. Equilibrium and non-equilibrium chemical reaction mechanisms for oxy-fuel combustion were investigated. Combustion models suitable for the numerical simulation of non-premixed oxy-fuel flame were surveyed.

The fluid-flow characteristics of flue-gas-recirculation (FGR) system can have a significant effect on system efficiency of a sintering plant. The flow characteristics in the system were investigated. A sintering plant with FGR system was modeled. Numerical visualization was performed and flow characteristics were analyzed. Characteristics of the flow distribution of the branch ducts, the inflow of air into the recirculating hood, and the flow in the hood were discussed. Based on the results three suggestions were proposed: (1) distribution of branch duct flowrate upstream, (2) installation of external air ducts in the hood, and (3) installation of baffles at the hood corners. The suggestions were tested numerical and experimental visualization methods. The suggestions were effective and confirmed to be applicable to the actual sinter plant.

MILD 연소는 고온의 배기가스가 연소로 내에 유입되는 연료와 공기의 혼합물과 고온의 배기가스 가 만나는 위치에 따라 질소산화물 저감 특성이 많은 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 폐기물소각로에 적용한 MILD 연소로에서 배기가스 재순환 여부에 따른 유동 특성과 배기가스 재순환 위치에 따른 유동 특성을 살펴보아 최적의 배기가스 재순환 위치를 선정하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 본 연구의 전산 해석의 결과는 배기가스 재순환이 없는 경우에는 수직 격벽 상부의 단면에서 속도 분포는 수직 격벽 바로 상부에 큰 속도가 있고 더 상부는 역류가 일어나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 배기가스 재순환이 있는 경우는 상부 자유공간에서의 유동 균일도를 수직 격벽 상부 단면에서의 x 방향 속도의 %RMS 값으로 비교하였으며 재순환 흡입구 위치가 자유공간 우측 상단에 위치한 경우가 %RMS 값이 57.4%로 가장 작은 값을 가지며 따라서 가장 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

Oxygen-enriched non-premixed flame characteristics was investigated numerically with variation of dilution methods, which are Flue gas recirculation(FGR) and fuel injection recirculation(FIR). In order to compare flamelets in various oxygen-enrichment conditions reasonably, the adiabatic flame temperature and Damkoller number was held fixed by modulating amount of diluents to fuel and oxidizer stream and by varying global strain rate of flame respectively. Also modified GRI 3.0 reaction mechanism was utilized, which was able to predict oxygen-enriched methane flame correctly. Fundamental flame characteristics such as structure, heat release rate and extinction with FGR and FIR were compared in various oxygen enrichment conditions.

In the iron ore sinter process, temperature distribution pattern in sintering bed is related with productivity and quality of sintered ore. Evenly heat distribution make the uniform quality of sintered ore but in normal operating condition, upper part of bed has lack of heat and scarce quality of sintered ore, thus yeild rate is decreased and productivity is diminished. Therefore, using the additional fuel for increasing quality and flue gas recirculation for increasing productivity are considered and effect of both processes are discussed.

The conventional regenerative system has a high thermal efficiency as well as energy saving using the high preheated combustion air. in spite of these advantages, it can not avoid high nitric oxide emissions. Recently, flameless combustion has received much attention to solve these problems. In this research, numerical analysis is performed for flow-combustion phenomena in the self regenerative burner. In this analysis we used Fluent 6.0 code. the that is developed for commercial use, Methane gas is used as a fuel and two-step reaction model for methane and Zeldovich mechanism for NO generation are used. the velocity of the preheated combustion air is used as a parameter and we analyze the characteristics of flow-field, temperature distributions and NO emissions. Due to the increased recirculation rate, the maximum temperature of flame is significantly increased and NOx emissions is reduced.

화석연료를 연소할 때 연소로 내의 고온의 온도 분위기에서 열적 질소산화물이 발생하게 된다. 연소기기에서 질소산화물을 저감하기 위한 여러 가지 방법 중에 배기가스 재순환 방법이 널리 쓰이고 있다. 본 연구에서는 배기가스 재순환 배관에 코안다 노즐을 사용하고 양쪽 출구가 트인 재순환하는 버너에 대하여 냉간 유동 특성을 전산유체해석을 통해 살펴보았다. 재순환 배관이 원통 버너의 접선방향으로 설치되어 있어서 버너 내부에서 선회유동이 형성되어 원통 버너 중심 부분에 역류가 생기는 현상을 관찰하였으며 이는 한쪽이 막힌 재순환 버너와 유사한 경향임을 확인 하였다. 본 연구로부터 양쪽 출구가 트인 재순환 버너에서 재순환 유입량은 한쪽이 막힌 버너보다 약 5% 증가하는 것을 확인하였고 양쪽 트인 버너에서 배기가스 재순환 배관의 유입구 위치의 출구에서는 전체 영역에서 유입 유동이 형성되고 반대편의 출구에서는 총 유량은 배출되지만 원통의 가운데 부분은 역류가 일어나는 것을 확인하였다. 배출되는 출구에서 배출되는 유량은 유입되는 출구에서의 유입량보다 3~5배 유량이 크게 나타났다.

Hydrogen with high chemical reactivity and combustion efficiency, is expected to reduce greenhouse gas and CO emission. However, there is a problem of increase in NOx emission due to hydrogen combustion. MILD combustion technology has been proposed to resolve NOx emission. In this study, the characteristics of MILD combustion and NOx formation by flue gas recirculation (KV) in CH₄-H₂ mixture were analyzed and predicted using 0D premixed combustion model. The ignition delay time became shorter as the hydrogen co-firing rate increased, and longer as the recirculation rate increased. For NOx emission, EINO decreased as the KV increased, but EINO increased as the hydrogen co- firing rate increased. In particular, EINO was predicted to increase significiently above 80% hydrogen. Through the pathway analysis of NO formation, it was found that the influence of N₂O intermediate route and NNH route was enhanced for hydrogen co-firing.
