This paper describes numerical efforts to characterize the flame-holding and air-fuel mixing process of model SCRamjet engine combustor, where a hydrogen jet injected into a supersonic cross flow and in a cavity Combustion phenomena in a model SCRamjet engine, which has been experimentally studied at University of Queensland and Australian National University using a free-piston shock tunnel, was observed around separation region of upstream of the normal injector and inside of cavity. The results show that the separation region and cavity generates several recirculation zones, which increase the fuel-air mixing. Self ignition occurs in the separation-freestream and cavity-freestream interface.

The purpose of this study is the experimental and numerical investigation on the DME spray characteristics in the combustion chamber according to the injection timing in a common-rail injection system. The visualization system consisted of the high speed camera with metal halide lamp was used for analyzing the spray characteristics such as spray development processes and the spray tip penetration in the free and in-cylinder spray under various ambient pressure. In order to observe the spray characteristics as a function of injection timing, the piston head shape of re-entrant type was created and the fuel injected into the chamber according to various distance between nozzle tip and piston wall in consideration of injection timing. Also, the spray and evaporation characteristics in the cylinder was calculated by using KlVA-3V code for simulating spray development process and spray tip penetration under real engine conditions. It was revealed that the high ambient pressure of 3 MPa was led to delay the spray development and evaporation of DME spray. In addition, injected sprays after BTDC 20 degrees entered the bowl region and the spray at the BTDC 30 degrees was divided into two regions. In the calculated results, the liquefied spray tip penetration and fuel evaporation were shorter and more increased as the injection timing was retarded, respectively.

Using the T3 free-piston shock tunnel in ANU, the cavity frequency and flow characteristics of no mass-injection, inclined mass-injection before the cavity, parallel or reverse mass-injection in the cavity are investigated in the case of Mach 3.7 inflow condition. No mass-injection doesn't have the harmonic frequencies but has high amplitude of pressure spectrum at 10 kHz. Inclined mass-injection attenuates the cavity flow fluctuation as disturbing the shear layer reflection at the trailing edge. Parallel mass-injection flow reflects at the trailing edge of the cavity directly hence, increases the cavity flow fluctuation at high injection pressure.

Air-fuel mixing and flame-holding are two important factors that have to be considered in the design of an injection system. Different injection strategies have been proposed with particular concern for rapid air-fuel mixing and flame-holding. Two representative injection techniques can be applied in a supersonic combustor. One of the simplest approaches is a transverse(normal) injection. The cavity flame holder, an integrated fuel injection/flame-holding approach, has been proposed as a new concept for flame holding and air-fuel mixing in a supersonic combustor. This paper describes numerical efforts to characterize the flame-holding and air-fuel mixing process of a model scramjet engine combustor, where hydrogen is injected into a supersonic cross flow and a cavity. The combustion phenomena in a model scramjet engine, which has been experimentally studied at University of Queensland and Australian National University using a free-piston shock tunnel, were observed around the separation region of the transverse injector upstream and the inside cavity. The results show that this flow separation generates recirculation regions which increase air-fuel mixing. Self-ignition occurs in the separation-freestream and cavity-fteestream interfaces.

Hydrogen linear power system is estimated as the next generation power system which can obtain a performance as same as fuel cell. In order to develop Hydrogen combustion power system with high thermal efficiency, it is very important to understand the basic characteristics of hydrogen combustion and establish combustion stabilization technique of its system. In this study, RICEM(Rapid Intake Compression Expansion Machine) for researching of hydrogen combustion linear power system was manufactured and evaluated, and the basic characteristics of linear RICEM were analyzed.

This paper presents the new design and validation process of the linear transverse flux machine of the stelzer machine for hybrid vehicle application. A linear transverse flux machine is a novel electric machine that has higher force density and power than conventional electric machine. The process concentrates on 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional analysis using equivalent magnetic circuit method considering leakage elements and it is verified by finite element analysis. Besides the force characteristics of all axis of each direction are analyzed. The study is considered by dividing the transverse flux electric excited type and the transverse flux permanent magnet excited type. Additionally three-dimensional analysis in this machine is accomplished due to asymmetric structure with another three axes. Finally, it suggests the new design and validation process of linear transverse flux machine for stelzer machine.

본 논문은 자유 피스톤 엔진에 적용되는 단상 선형발전기용 전력제어시스템에 관한 연구이다. 자유 피스톤 엔진 선형발전시스템은 피스톤의 움직임을 구속하는 기구가 없기 때문에 기계적 마찰 손실이 적고 상사점 도달 시간이 짧아 에너지 효율측면에서 기존의 피스톤 엔진보다 유리한 기술이다. 하지만, 자유 피스톤 엔진의 경우 초기 기동 할 수 있는 동력원이 필요하며, 단상 선형 발전기의 경우 짧은 스트로크 및 낮은 속도로 인해 인덕턴스가 크게 설계 되어, 높은 인덕턴스로 인한 전류의 위상 지연으로 역률이 낮아지게 되고, 응답성이 떨어지는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 역률 보상 및 응답성을 높일 수 있는 자유피스톤 엔진용 단상선형발진기용 전력제어시스템을 제안한다.
