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.

Acoustic excitations were imposed to coaxial air jet of non-premixed jet flame with hydrogen gaseous injected axially in the center of the flow. The frequencies of excitation were three dominant resonant frequencies at 1L, 2L, 3L. modes including specially 514 Hz (2L-mode) which was estimated theoretically as longitudinal mode of combustor characteristics. The mixing enhancement by acoustic forcing has been investigated quantitatively using PLIF and PIV. The effect of acoustic excitation on combustion process was significant to enhance mixing rate that coincides with specific resonant frequencies. And the behavior of vortex-interaction on flame structure was a good evidence to investigate the phenomenon of shear/mixing layer of fuel-air jet structure. The results obtained in this study concludes that generated streamwise vortex by acoustic excitation has a potential to enhance the mixing rate and abating NOx emissions.

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$CO_{2}$.

A numerical simulation of flame propagation in a micro combustor was carried out. Combustor has a sub -millimeter depth cylindrical internal volume and axisymmetric one-dimensional was used to simplify the geometry. Semi-empirical heat transfer model was used to account for the heat loss to the walls during the flame propagation. A detailed chemical kinetics model of $H_2/Air$ with 10 species and 16 reaction steps was used to calculate the combustion. An operator-splitting PISO scheme that is non-iterative, time-dependent, and implicit was used to solve the system of transport equations. The computation was validated for adiabatic flame propagation and showed good agreement with existing results of adiabatic flame propagation. A full simulation including the heat loss model was carried out and results were compared with measurements made at corresponding test conditions. The heat loss that adds its significance at smaller value of combust or height obviously affected the flame propagation speed as final temperature of the burnt gas inside the combustor. Also, the distribution of gas properties such as temperature and species concentration showed wide variation inside the combustor, which affected the evaluation of total work available of the gases.

비예혼합 대향류화염에서 산소부화에 따른 NOx 생성특성에 관한 수치해석이 수행되었다. 순산소의 연소과정에서 공기침투에 의한 부득이한 질소 유입의 상황을 체계적으로 고려하기 위하여, 산화제의 $O_2$는 체적비 21%에서 100%까지 변화되었다. 결과적으로 NO 배출지수$(EI_{NO})$는 산소부화율 75%까지 증가하다가 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보여준다. 이러한 경향은 화염온도, 화염두께 및 체류시간 보다는 NOx 생성과 관련된 $N_2$ 소모율 변화에 의해 설명될 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 특히 N+NO=$N_2+O$ 반응이 가장 크게 기여함을 알 수 있었다.
