In this study, we investigated operating characteristics of the LNG burner for steam methane reforming. The developed LNG burner and catalytic reactor to supply an efficient heat transfer between the combustion gas and catalyst got a good response of various operating load within 5-7 minute and high efficiency for steam methane reforming as a conversion of methane over 90%. We calculated the volume of catalyst for $1Nm^3/hr$ steam LNG reforming as $211cc/(Nm^3/hr\;H_2)$ and got the operating condition and design data of the burner and steam reforming for LNG.

A flame speed of methane mixture of water vapor and air have been measured to study the process of flame propagation using schlieren photographs. The quantity of water vapor contained were changed 5% and 10% of total mixture, and equivalence ratio of mixture between 0.8 and 1.2 were tested under the ambient temperature 323K and 373K. The results showed that the burning velocity was decreased by increasing the water vapor contents due to the interruption of flame development. And, the reduction rate of burning velocity was smaller by increasing the water contents under the same ambient temperature. The effects of ambient temperature on burning velocity was decreased by increasing the water vapor contents.

Since gas turbine using biogas can reduce carbon dioxide ($CO_2$), the biogas gas turbine is becoming more attractive to renewable energy utilization business sector. Natural gas and $CO_2$ mixture was used to simulate the biogas fuel. At the experiments pressure losses, pattern factor, and emissions were measured. The results revealed that methane concentrations of the fuel mixture showed little effects on the combustor performance except emissions. As methane concentrations in fuel decreased, emissions measured at the exit of the combustor decreased.

Thermo-acoustic instability of methane/ air flames in an industrial gas-turbine combustor is numerically investigated adopting CFD analysis. The combustor has 37 EV burners through which methane and air are mixed and then injected into the chamber. First, steady fuel! air mixing and flow characteristics established by the burner are investigated by numerical analysis with single burner. And then, based on information on the flow data, the burners are modeled numerically via equivalent swirlers, which facilitates the numerical analysis with the whole combustion system including the chamber and numerous burners. Finally, reactive flow fields within the chamber are investigated numerically by unsteady analysis and thereby, spontaneous instability is simulated. Based on the numerical results, scaling analysis is conducted to find out the instability mechanism in the combustor and the passive control method to suppress the instability is proposed and verified numerically.

Burning velocity of methane-air mixtures with water vapor have been measured to study the process of flame propagation using schlieren photographs and computation. The computations were carried out for the burning velocity using premix code of Chemkin program to compare the experimental results. The quantity of water vapor contained were changed 5% and 10% of total mixtures, and equivalence ratio of mixtures between 0.8 and 1.2 were tested under the ambient temperature 323K and 373K. The results showed little difference between these two methods, the burning velocity was decreased by increasing the water vapor contents due to the interruption of flame development. And, the effect of ambient temperature was less significant by increasing the water contents on the burning velocity.

A study on the modeling of the methane Chemical Looping Reforming system was carried out. It is aimed to predict the temperature and concentration behavior of the product through modeling of oxygen carrier fixed bed reactors composed of multiple stacks. In order to design the reaction system, first of all, the flow rate of the hydrogen to be produced was calculated. The flow rate ratio of the oxidation/reduction reactor was calculated considering the heat of reaction between adjacent reactors. Finally, in this paper, kinetic model including empirical coefficients was suggested.

The objective of the present study is to conduct model combustion tests for various injectors to identify their combustion stability characteristics. Three different double swirl coaxial injectors with variation of a recess length have been tested for the comparative study of CH flame structure and dynamic characteristics. Gaseous oxygen and mixture of gaseous methane and propane have been employed for simulating actual propellants used for a full-scale thrust chamber. Upon test results, the direct comparison between various types of injectors can be realized for the selection of the best design among prospective injectors.

Vortical structures are investigated numerically for both cold and combusting flows from a two-dimensional bluff-body burner in the transitional flow regime from steady to unsteady state. The Reynolds number of the central fuel flow is varied from 10 to 230 at a fixed air Reynolds number of 400. The flame sheet model of infinite chemical reaction and unit Lewis number are assumed in the simulation. The temperature dependence of the viscosity and diffusivity of the gas mixture is also considered. The vortex shedding is observed depending on the fuel flow. For cold flow, four different types of vortical structure are identified. However, for combusting flow of methane-air system the vortical structures change significantly due to a large amount of heat release during the combustion process, in contract to cold flow.

Flame propagation speed characteristics of methante-air mixtures were experimentally investigated in combustion chamber modelled engine. Flame propagation process was known as a funtion of equivalence ratio initial pressure and initial temperature. Ion probe and schlieren photograph were applied to measure the local flame speed and flame radius in quiescent mixtures. Pressure was also measured to make sure of the reproducibility and to apply combustion analysis. Burning velocity was calculated from the flame propagation speed and combustion analysis. Flames were developed faster with higher initial pressure and initial temperature but showed maximum propagation speed at equivalence ratio 1.1 regardless of initial pressure and temperature. Local flame speed was maximum values at near midpoint between center and wall.

Mn이 치환된 헥사알루미네이트 촉매인 $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$, $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$, $SrMnAl_{11}O_{19}$을 $(NH_4)_2CO_3$ 공침법을 이용하여, $1,200^{\circ}C$ 5시간 소성을 통해 제조하였다. X-선 회절, 질소흡착을 통해 촉매의 결정구조와 비표면적을 분석한 결과, 결정 격자 내 거울면에 La이 존재하는 $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$이 $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$과 $SrMnAl_{11}O_{19}$보다 우수한 헥사알루미네이트 결정 구조를 가지는 동시에 13 $m^2/g$의 높은 비표면적을 가지고 있었다. 또한 SEM 분석을 통해 $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$이 특유의 판상구조가 잘 발달함을 확인하였다. 메탄 연소 활성은 다음과 같은 차례로 증가하였고: $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ > $SrMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ > $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$. 메탄 연소 활성은 비표면적에 의존하였다. $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$에 60 wt%의 $CeO_2$를 첨가하고 $700^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 소성한 경우 $700^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 100% 전환율에 도달함으로써 ceria 첨가에 의한 메탄 연소 개선 효과를 확인할 수 있었으며, 이 촉매가 저온 및 중온 영역의 메탄 연소 촉매로 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 그러나, 이 촉매의 경우 $1,200^{\circ}C$의 고온에서 5시간 소성한 후에는 ceria입자 크기의 증가로 인해 메탄의 연소 활성 개선 효과를 잃게됨으로 고온용 연소 촉매로서의 사용은 한계가 있음을 확인하였다.
