Characteristic of aluminum ignition under high temperature and high pressure is studied using lasers. The laser ablation method is used to generate aluminum particles exposed to a high pressure by using a nanosecond pulsed laser where the range of ablation pressure varies between 0.35 and 2.2 GPa. A $CO_2$ laser is used to supply radiative heat to the aluminum target surface for providing high temperature ranging between 5000~9300 Kelvin. The ignition is confirmed using spectroscopy analysis of AlO vibronic band 484 nm wavelength. Also the radiative temperature is measured in various high pressure range for tracing the ignition temperature in high pressure conditions.

In this study, a new type of laser-induced ignition using a conical cavity has been developed to utilize all the available incident laser energy. In the method, it is possibile to ignite combustible methane/air mixtures by directing a laser beam of a constant small diameter into a small conical cavity, without focusing the laser beam. Shadow graphs for the early stage of combustion process show that a hot gas jet is ejected from the cavity, especially with lean mixture. After a very show time, the hot gas jet finishes issuing and the flame behavior is quite similar to flame propagation initiated by a conventional spark ignition. The combustion process using the new method exhibits more rapid pressure increase and a higher maximum pressure rise than that of the center ignition using laser-induced spark, with significant decrease in the combustion time. Also, the new ignition method is numerically modeled to simulate the flame kernel development and subsequent combustion process using the KIVA-IIcode. The calculated results show satisfactory agreement with experimental results.

The ignition of aluminum particles under high pressure and temperature conditions is studied. The laser ablation method is used to generate aluminum particles exposed to pressures ranging between 0.35 and 2.2 GPa. A continuous wave $CO_2$ laser is then used to heat surface of the aluminum target until ignition is achieved. We confirm ignition by a spectroscopic analysis of AlO vibronic band of 484 nm wavelength. The radiant temperature is measured with respect to various pressures for tracing of required heating energy for ignition. Then the ignition temperature is deduced from the radiant temperature using the thermal diffusion equation. The established ignition criteria for corresponding temperature and pressure can be used in the modeling of detonation behavior of heavily aluminized high explosives or solid propellants.

We present a model for simulating high energy laser heating and ignition of confined energetic materials. The model considers effect of ablation of steel plate with long laser pulses and continuous lasers of several kilowatts and the thermal response of well-characterized high explosives for ignition. Since there is enough time for the thermal wave to propagate into the target and to create a region of hot spot in the high explosives, electron thermal diffusion of ultra-short(femto- and pico-second) lasing is ignored; instead, heat diffusion of absorbed laser energy in the solid target is modeled with thermal decomposition kinetic models of high explosives are used. Numerically simulated pulsed-laser heating of solid target and thermal explosion of cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine(RDX), triaminotrinitrobenzene(TATB), and octahydrotetranitrotetrazine(HMX) are compared to experimental results. The experimental and numerical results are in good agreement.

금속 연료로 사용되는 마이크로/나노 알루미늄 입자를 산화피막에 의한 점화 지연을 최소화 하는 점화 방법을 제시 하였다. 알루미늄 입자를 생성시킴과 동시에 가열하여 입자가 생성된 직후 산소와 접촉시 격렬한 산화 반응을 유도하여 점화를 시키는 방법이다. 1064 nm 파장의 Nd:YAG 펄스 레이저를 이용한 레이저 삭마(laser ablation)를 알루미늄 시편에 발생시켜 입자를 생성하였으며, 산란 기법(scattering method)을 이용하여 입자를 가시화하여 생성을 확인하였다. 10.6 ${\mu}m$ 파장의 $CO_2$ 연속 레이저를 사용하여 알루미늄 시편을 가열하고 생성된 입자의 점화 열원으로 사용하여 알루미늄 입자가 점화되고 연소되어 이동하는 궤적을 확인하였다.

A constant volume combustion chamber is employed to investigate the initial flame kernel development and flame propagation of gasoline-air mixtures with various ignition systems, ignition energy and spark plug electrodes. To do this research, four ignition systems are designed and manufactured, and the ignition energy is controlled by varying the dwell time. Several kinds of spark plugs are also made to analyze the effects of electrodes on flame kernel development. The velocity of flame propagation is measured by the laser deflection method. The output laser beam from He-Ne laser is divided into three parallel beams by a beam splitter. The splitted beams pass through the combustion chamber. They are deflected when contacted with flame front, and the voltage signals from photodiodes change due to deflection. The results show that higher ignition energy raises the flame propagation speed especially under the fuel lean operation. The wider electrode gap, smaller electrode diameter and sharper electrode tip make the speed of the initial flame propagation faster. The speed of the initial flame propagation is affected by electrode material as well. Electrode material with lower melting temperature help the initial flame propagation.

본 연구에서는 고출력 레이저에 의한 고에너지 물질의 점화 현상 모델을 제시하였다. 본 모델에서는 강판에 긴 조사 시간을 가진 펄스 레이저를 조사하여 발생한 어블레이션에 의한 열 확산을 고려하였고, 수 kW의 continuous 레이저를 폭약에 조사하여 폭약이 열에 의하여 점화하는 현상을 실험 결과와 비교를 통해 검증하였다. 여기서는 매우 짧은 조사 시간(femto- 혹은 pico-second)을 가진 펄스 레이저에서 나타나는 전자에 의한 효과는 무시 되었다. 본 연구에 사용된 폭약은 RDX, TATB 그리고 HMX이며, 제시한 모델은 실험 결과와 흡사한 결과를 도출하였다.

Surgical fires require an ignition source, oxidizer, and fuel. The pulsed dye laser (PDL) has been shown to be effective in the treatment of hypertrophic scars and keloids in dermatology. With the increasing number of applications of $CO_2$, laser as ignition source has been associated with operating room fires in the otorhinolaryngologic field. There have been many case reports on PDL-induced fires in dermatology, but until now, there were no reports in the larynx. We describe a 57-year-old patient diagnosed with laryngeal hyperkeratosis treated by PDL-assisted laryngomicrosurgery. In this case, we experienced incidental PDL tip flaring during pulsed dye laser vaporization.

Flame propagation in a four-valve spark-ignition optical engine was visualized under lean-bum conditions with A/F=18 at 2000rpm. The early flame development in a four-valve pentroof-chamber single-cylinder engine was examined with imaging of the laser-induced Mie scattered light using an image-intensified CCD camera. Flame profiles along the line-of-sight were also visualized through a quartz piston window. Two-dimensional flame structures were visualized with a Proxitronic HF-1 fast motion camera system by Mie scattering from titanium dioxide particles along a planar laser sheet generated by a copper vapor laser. The flame propagation images were subsequently analysed with an image processing programme to obtain information about the flame structure under different tumble flow conditions generated by sleeved and non-sleeved intake ports. This allowed enhancement of the flame images and calculation of the enflamed area, and the displacement of its center, as a function of the tumble flow induced by the pentroof-chamber in the vicinity of spark plug. Image processing of the early flame development quantified the correlation between flame and flow characteristics near the spark plug at the time of ignition which has been known to be one of the most important factors in cyclic combustion variations in lean-burn engines. The results were also compared with direct flame images obtained from the natural flame luminosity of the lean mixture.
