An experimental study on geometric optimization was conducted to develop a hybrid/dual swirl jet combustor for a micro-gas turbine. A hybrid concept indicating a combination of swirling jet partially premixed and premixed flames were adopted to achieve high flame stability as well as clean combustion. Location of pilot nozzle, angle and direction of swirl vane were varied as main parameters with a constant fuel flow rate for each nozzle. The results showed that the variation in location of pilot nozzle resulted in significant change in swirl intensity due to the change in flow area near burner exit, and thus, optimized nozzle location was determined on the basis of CO and NOx emissions under conditions of co-swirl flow and swirl $angle=30^{\circ}$. The increase in swirl angle (from $30^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}$) enhanced the emission performances, in particular, with a significant reduction of CO emission near lean-flammability limit. It was observed that the CO emission near lean-flammability limit was further reduced through the counter-swirl flow. However, there was not significant change in the NOx emission in the operating conditions (i.e. equivalence ratio of 0.6~0.7) between the co- and the counter-swirl flow.

Catalytic combustion is one of the suitable methods for micro power source due to high energy density and it can be applied to micro structured chamber without consideration of quenching since it is flameless combustion. Catalyst loading in the micro structured combustion chamber is one of the most important issues in the development of micro catalytic combustors. In this research, to coat catalyst on the chamber wall, two methods were investigated. First, $Al_2O_3$ was selected as a support of Pt and $Pt/Al_2O_3$ was synthesized through the alumina sol-gel procedure. To improve the coating thickness and adhesion between catalyst and substrate, heat resistant and water solvable organic-inorganic hybrid binder was used. Porous silicon was also investigated as a catalyst support for platinum. Through the parametric studies of current density and etching time, fabrication process of $1{\sim}2{\mu}m$ of diameter and about $25{\mu}m$ depth pores was confirmed. Coated substrates were test in the micro channel combustor which was fabricated by the wet etching and machining of SUS 304. Using $Pt/Al_2O_3$ coated substrate and Pt coated porous silicon substrate, conversion rate of fuel was over 95 % for $H_2/Air$ premixed gas.

MEMS 기술의 발전에 따라 마이크로 시스템이 개발되면서 마이크로 시스템이 요구하는 높은 에너지를 제공하는 에너지원으로 연소기반의 초소형 동력장치에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 초소형 동력장치는 별도의 열원이 있어야 하기에 이와 연계되는 초소형 연소기가 필요하다. Swiss-roll 연소기는 연소기의 크기와 형상, 재질에 대한 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 선행연구결과 연소기 재질의 열전도도가 낮고, 재질의 두께가 얇을수록 연소기의 성능이 좋아진다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 낮은 작동온도를 요구하는 PEM형 연료전지에의 적용가능성을 검토하기 위해서 열전도율이 낮은 polyimide 연소기를 제작하여 성능분석을 수행하였다.

본 논문에서는 200 kW급 마이크로 가스 터빈 시스템의 연소기집합체의 열-구조 연성 해석을 수행하였다. 일반적인 연소기집합체는 라이너, 내외 케이스, 버너와 노즐링 등으로 구성되어 있으며, 본 연구에서 개발된 유한요소모델은 연소기집합체 내 다양한 부품들의 다른 열팽창을 보상하기 위해 부품간의 이격과 마찰 요소들이 존재하므로 비선형 간극 및 마찰 요소 등을 포함하고 있다. 본 연구를 통해 연소기집합체의 외부 경계지지조건이 높은 온도구배로 인한 응력 에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 인자라는 것을 밝혀냈으며, 과도한 응력이나 변형을 방지하기 위한 적절한 외부 경계지지조건을 찾기 위하여 외부 경계지역에 탄성 지지조건을 가상하여 적절한 경계조건을 도출하여 설계에 사용될 수 있도록 하였다.

본 연구에서는 소형 무인기에 사용되는 초소형 가스터빈 엔진의 연소기를 3D 프린팅으로 제작하고, 시험 설비와 리그를 제작하여 연소기 단품 성능시험을 수행하였다. 연소기 성능시험은 두 가지 부하조건에서 당량비를 조절하여 각 부하조건 별 4가지 시험조건에서 수행하였다. 성능시험 결과 연소기의 압력손실과 출구온도분포는 우수하였지만, 연소가스에서 다량의 UHC와 CO가 검출되어 연소효율은 일반적인 가스터빈 연소기에 비해 아주 낮음을 확인하였다. 성능시험을 통해 획득한 정량적 성능데이터는 향후 3D 프린팅 기술로 성능이 개선된 연소기의 설계와 제작에 활용 할 예정이다.

The relationship between mass transfer and reaction within the washcoat is investigated in a monolith type micro-scale Pt-catalytic combustor. Nondimensionalized balance equation of butane is applied in a simplified washcoat geometry having the shape of slab. Both Thiele modulus and effectiveness factor are considered to compare reaction rate and diffusion rate according to the operation temperature and the diameter of alumina nano-pores. The effect of reaction becomes stronger as the temperature increases, while the effect of diffusion becomes relatively dominant as the diameter of nano-pores increases. From the analysis of butane distribution within the washcoat, design criterion for the thickness of washcoat is discussed.

Combustion phenomenon in scale-downed combustor is investigated. As the combustor volume decreases surface to volume ratio increases. for increased surface to volume ratio means increased heat loss and this increased heat loss affects reaction in combustion chamber. Plastic mini combustor is made. Stoichiometricaly premixed Hydrogen I air gas is used as fuel. Initial chamber pressure and chamber size are varied and the effects are evaluated. Peak pressure decreases with the decrease in chamber height. As initial chamber pressure decreases peak pressure decreases. And this change is more important than scale down effect till the chamber height of 1mm. With this result and further information following the experiments design parameter for micro engine can be established.

A new microcombustor configuration for a micro fuel-cell reformer integrated with a micro evaporator was studied experimentally and computationally. The present microcombustor is simply cylindrical to be easily fabricated but two-staged, expending downstream, to feasibly control ignition and stable burning. Results show that the aspect ratio of the first stage and the wall thickness of the microcombustors substantially affect ignition and thermal characteristics. For the optimized design conditions, a premixed microflame was easily ignited in the expanded second stage combustor, moved into the smaller first stage combustor, and finally stabilized therein. The measured and predicted temperature distributions across the microcombustor walls indicated that heat generated in the microcombustor is well transferred. Thus, the present microcombustor configuration could be applied to the practical micro reformers integrated with a micro evaporator for use of fuel cells.
