In this study, the structure of a edge flame near the flammability limits was explored through several paths approaching the combustion limits of a non-premixed flame: i.e., increase of fuel dilution ratio (FDR), reduction of mean flow velocity and variation of gravity effect. As a result, a unique interesting flame structure was discovered; i.e., a diffusion flame branch was enclosed by two asymmetric premixed flame branches. These structures have been compared for various fuels. Conclusively, each fuel has different flame structure and the meaning of this structure was discussed concerned about our understanding of laminar flame structures.

삼지화염 구조는 화염 선단의 구조로서 다루어져 왔으며, 많은 연구자들에 의해 해석적인 방법과 실험적인 방법으로 연구가 되어왔다. 그러나 연료의 종류에 따른 가연한계의 차이가 삼지화염의 구조에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 깊이 있게 다루어지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 화염 구조에 대한 비대칭 가연한계의 영향을 예혼합화염과 확산화염에 관한 몇 가지 층류화염 이론에 근거한 간단한 수치 기법을 통해 연구하였다. 고정된 유동장이 사용되었으며, 예혼합 화염 가지에서의 경계조건이 연계되었다. 예혼합 화염 후류의 확산화염의 형성과 소멸을 성공적으로 모사할 수 있었다. 비대칭 가연한계 조건과 열손실에 따른 확산화염의 변화가 연구되었다. 본 연구는 화염의 기초 구조에 대한 이해를 도울 수 있으며, 이후의 연구를 위한 기초로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

An experiment in a turbulent non-premixed flat flame was carried out in order to investigate the effect of swirl number on the flow and combustion characteristics. First. stream lines and velocity distribution in the flow field were obtained using PIV method. In contrast with the axial flow without swirl, highly swirled air induced stream lines along the burner tile. and backward flow was caused by recirculation in the center zone of the flow field. In the combustion. the flame with swirled air also became flat and stable along the burner tile with increment of the swirl number. Flame structure by measuring OH and CH radicals intensity and by calculating Damkohler number(Da) and turbulence Reynolds number(Re$_{T}$) was examined. It appeared to be comprised in the wrinkled laminar-flame regime. Backward flow by recirculation of the burned gas decreased the flame temperature and emissions concentrations as NO and CO. Consequently, the stable flat flame with low NO concentration was achieved.d.

An analysis of the effects of $CO_{2}$ on fundamental combustion characteristics was performed in Oxygen enriched condition by comparing the laminar burning velocities, flame structures, fuel oxidation paths. Fictitious $CO_{2}$ was introduced to discriminate the chemical reaction effects of $CO_{2}$ from the thermal effects. PREMIX code was utilized to evaluate the laminar burning velocities. OPPDIF code was utilized to investigate the flame structure and fuel oxidation path variation. The contributions of thermal effects on laminar burning velocities are dominant at lowly oxygen-enriched condition but those of chemical reaction effects become dominant at highly oxygen-enriched condition. Chemical reaction effects caused the additional flame temperature decrease besides thermal effects and oxygen-leakage increase in non-premixed flame. Specific fuel oxidation path and CO production path is enhanced in spite of overall decrement of fuel consumption rate by chemical reaction effects of$CO_{2}$.

The Direct Quadrature Method of Moments (DQMOM) has been presented for the solution of population balance equation in the wide range of the multi-phase flows. This method has the inherently interesting features which can be easily applied to the multi-inner variable equation. In addition, DQMOM is capable of easily coupling the gas phase with the discrete phases while it requires the relatively low computational cost. Soot inception, subsequent aggregation, surface growth and oxidation are described through a population balance model solved with the DQMOM for soot formation. This approach is also able to represent the evolution of the soot particle size distribution. The turbulence-chemistry interaction is represented by the laminar flamelet model together with the presumed PDF approach and the spherical harmonic P-1 approximation is adopted to account for the radiative heat transfer.

공명 주파수의 음파로 가진된 비예혼합 분류화염에서 가진 강도에 대한 영향을 실험적으로 조사하였다. 이를 위해 Mie 산란광 단면법, PLIF, PIV 등 광학적 가시화 방법이 사용되었다. 가진된 분류화염의 부상경로는 연료유량 및 가진 강도에 따라 크게 세 가지 영역으로 구분되는데, 비교적 큰 가진 강도에서 부상될 때 화염기저가 마치 난류화염처럼 부상되는 영역I과 작은 가진 강도에서 쉽게 부상되는 영역II 그리고 이 두 영역들 사이에서 부상된 화염기저가 부분 예혼합의 분젠화염과 같은 형태로 과도기적 영역이 존재함을 알았다. 본 연구에서는 영역I과 II로 구분되는 부상경로 차이에 대한 이해를 높이고자 가진 위상에 따른 노즐과 화염기저간의 유동 혼합과 속도 분포 특성을 아세톤 PLIF와 PIV 시스템을 사용하여 조사하였다.

The effect of electric fields on the stability of non-premixed laminar lifted flame in coflow jets has been investigated by applying high voltage alternative current (AC) to the nozzle of propane fuel. The stable lifted flame which exist in far field of jets, the liftoff height was not effected by applied voltage. This implies that the cold jet between the nozzle and flame base can be analyzed with the previous cold jet theory. Flame liftoff and reattachment velocities were also measured as function of applied voltage and frequency. The fuel jet velocity at flame liftoff and reattachment increased with increasing voltage, implying that the range of flame srability can be extended with the AC charging. However the liftoff velocity increased with frequency of AC charging on nozzle, whereas the reattachment velocity decreases with frequency. The liftoff and reattachment velocities were correlated linearly with voltage considering the effects of frequency.

The effects of swirl intensity on non-reacting and reacting flow characteristics in a flat flame burner (FFB) with four types of swirlers were investigated. Experiments using the PIV method were conducted for several flow conditions with four swirl numbers of 0, 0.26, 0.6 and 1.24 in non-reacting flow. The results show that the strong swirling flow causes a recirculation, which has the toroidal structures, and spreads above the burner exit plane. Reacting flow characteristics such as temperature and the NO concentrations were also investigated in comparison with non-reacting flow characteristics. The mean flame temperature was measured as the function of radial distance, and the results show that the strong swirl intensity causes the mean temperature distributions to be uniform. However the mean temperature distributions at the swirl number of 0 show the typical distribution of long flames. NO concentration measurements show that the central toroidal recirculation zone caused by the strong swirl intensity results in much greater reduction in NO emissions, compared to the non-swirl condition. For classification into the flame structure interiorly, the turbulence Reynolds number and the Damkohler number have been examined at each condition. The interrelation between reacting and non-reacting flows shows that flame structures with swirl intensity belong to a wrinkled laminar-flame regime.

Detailed structures of the counterflow flames formed for different inlet fluid temperatures and different amount of additives are studied numerically. The detailed chemical reactions are modeled by using the CHEMKIN-II code. The discrete ordinates method and the narrow band based WSGGM with a gray gas regrouping technique (WSGGM-RG) are applied for modeling the radiative transfer through non-homogeneous and non-isothermal combustion gas mixtures generated by the counterflow flames. The results compared with those obtained by using the SNB model show that the WSGGM-RG is very successful in modeling the counterflow flames with non-gray gas mixture. The numerical results also show that the addition of $CO_2\;or\;H_2O$ to the oxidant lowers the peak temperature and the NO concentration in flame. But preheat of fuel or oxidant raises the flame temperature and the NO production rates. $O_2$ enrichment also causes to raise the temperature distribution and the NO production in flame. And it is found that the $O_2$ enrichment and the fuel preheat were the major parameters in affecting the flame width.

The effects of external excitation with various frequencies and amplitudes on the flame behavior and pollution emission characteristics from a laminar jet flame are experimentally investigated. Measurements of $NO_{x}$ emission indices($EINO_{x}$), performed in unconformed and vertical lifted flame at resonance frequency by strong excitation, have been conducted experimentally. It was also conducted to investigate the effects of excited frequency on $NO_{x}$ emissions with a various frequency ranged 0Hz to 2kHz. From the vertical lifted flame like turbulent of the excited jet with resonance frequency was shown that the dependence of $NO_{x}$ emission could be categorized into three groups: Group 1 of intermediate flame length and relative narrow flame volume yielding low $NO_{x}$ emission, Group 2 of short flame length but large flame volume yielding high $NO_{x}$ emission and Group 3 of long flame length with low temperature contours yielding high $NO_{x}$ emission.
