The characteristics of flame propagation in inert particle-laden $H_2$/Air premixed gas are numerically investigated on this study. The 2nd order TVD scheme is applied to numerical analysis of governing equations and multi-step chemical reaction model and detailed transport properties are sued to solve chemical reaction terms. Radiation heat transfer is computed by applying the finite volume method to a radiative transfer equation. The burning velocities against the mole fractions of hydrogen agree well with results performed by different workers. The inert particles play significant roles in the flame propagation on account of momentum and heat transfer between gas and particles. Gas temperature, pressure and flame propagation speed are decreased as the loading ratio of particle is increased. Also the products behind flame zone contain lots of water vapor whose absorption coefficient is much larger than that of unburned gas. Thus, the radiation effect of gas and particles must be considered simultaneously for the flame propagation in a mixture of $H_2$/Air and inert particles. As a result, it is founded that because the water vapor emits much radiation and this emitted radiation is released at boundaries as radiant heat loss as well as reabsorbed by gas and particles, flame propagation speed and flame structure are altered with radiation effect.

The present study numerically investigates the fuel-air mixing characteristics, flame structure, and pollutant emission inside a double-swirler combustor. A PSR(Perfectly Stirred Reactor) based microstructural model is employed to account for the effects of finite rate chemistry on the flame structure and NO formation. The turbulent combustion model is extended to nonadiabatic flame condition with radiation by introducing an enthalpy variable, and the radiative heat loss is calculated by a local, geometry-independent model. The effects of turbulent fluctuation are taken into account by the joint assumed PDFs. Numerical model is based on the non-orthogonal body-fitted coordinate system and the pressure/velocity coupling is handled by PISO algorithm in context with the finite volume formulation. The present PSR-based turbulent combustion model has been applied to analyze the highly intense turbulent nonpremixed flame field in the double swirler combustor. The detailed discussions were made for the flow structure, combustion effects on flow structure, flame structure, and emission characteristics in the highly intense turbulent swirling flame of the double swirler burner.

아세톤 LIF와 Rayleigh 산란법 등 두 가지 레이저 측정 기법을 이용하여 Re수가 1,000 미만의 부력제트 노즐근처에서의 공기 유입을 실험적으로 조사하였다. 아세톤 LIF 실험결과 전체적인 혼합기구는 경계면에서의 불안정성에 의한 거대와구조로 판단되고, Re 수가 커질수록 유입되는 시점이 상류로 이동하며 그 양 또한 증가되었다. 또한 Rayleigh 산란법 결과는 상류에서도 혼합이 제트의 내부까지 이루어지고, 노즐에서 분사방향으로 진행할수록 주위공기의 유입이 제트 내부로 진행되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 이 실험결과로서 기존 등온기체모델에서 제트의 주위공기 유입을 고려하여야 한다는 사실을 입증할 수 있다. 또한, 이상적 플룸식에서 복사열손실을 0.35로 고려하였을 경우에 기존의 연기량 및 온도 예측과 근사한 결과를 얻을 수 있으며, 주위공기 유입효과를 고려하여 보다 간단하면서 정확한 등온기체 모델링 방법을 얻을 수 있다.

Purpose: Heat transfer analysis of recently developed 'slim type double-skin system window' were presented. This window system is designed for curtain wall type façade that main energy loss factor of recent elegant buildings. And the double skin system is the dual window system integrated with inner shading component, enclosed gap space made by two windows when both windows were closed and shading component effectively reflect and terminate solar radiation from outdoor. Usually double-skin system requires much more space than normal window systems but this development has limited by 270mm, facilitated for curtain wall façade buildings. In this study, we estimated thermophysical phenomena of our double-skin curtain wall system window with solar load conditions at the summer season. Method: A fully 3-Dimentional analysis adopted for flow and convective and radiative heat transfer. The commercial CFD package were used to model the surface to surface radiation for opaque solid region of windows' frame, transparent glass, fluid region at inside of double-skin and indoor/outdoor environments. Result: Steep angle of solar incident occur at solar summer conditions. And this steep solar ray cause direct heat absorption from outside of frame surface rather than transmitted through the glass. Moreover, reflection effect of shading unit inside at the double-skin window system was nearly disappeared because of solar incident angle. With this circumstances, double-skin window system effectively cuts the heat transfer from outdoor to indoor due to separation of air space between outdoor and indoor with inner space of double-skin window system.

소화약제의 국소방출방식 개념이 적용될 수 있는 대향류 확산화염을 대상으로 $CO_2$ 소화약제의 소화기구를 재조명하기 위한 연구가 시도되었다. 이를 위해 연료 또는 공기류에 $CO_2$가 첨가된 낮은 총괄신장율의 $CH_4$/air 대향류 확산화염이 상세반응을 이용한 수치해석을 통해 검토되었다. 첨가된 $CO_2$를 포함한 복사 참여 화학종의 복사 열손실을 고려하기 위하여 optically thin model(OTM)이 적용되었다. 주요 결과로서, 공기류에 첨가된 $CO_2$의 소화농도 예측결과는 문헌에 보고된 실험결과를 적절하게 예측하고 있으나, 연료류에 첨가된 경우 다소 과소 예측된 결과를 확인하였다. 소화효과에 대한 정량적 분석을 위하여 가상의 소화약제의 개념이 도입되었다. $CO_2$ 소화효과의 분석을 통해 총괄신장율($a_g$)에 따른 순수 희석효과, 복사 열손실 및 열용량에 의한 열적효과 그리고 $CO_2$의 연쇄반응 억제를 통한 화학적 효과의 정량적 기여도를 구체적으로 확인할 수 있었다.

Flame characteristics and NO emission behavior in $CH_4$/air-air premixed counterflow flames with applying FIR and FGR with $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ were investigated numerically by varying the ratios of FIR and FGR as well as global strain rate. Chemical effects of added $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ via FIR and FGR were analyzed through comparing flame characteristics and NO behaviors from real species($CO_2$ and $H_2O$) with those from their artificial species($XCO_2$ and $XH_2O$) which have the same thermochemical, radiative, and transport properties to those for the real species. The results showed that flame temperature and NO emission with FIR varied much more sensitively than that with FGR. Those varied little irrespective of adding $CO_2$, $H_2O$, and their artificial species to the fuel stream via FIR. However, Those were varied complicatedly by chemical effects of added $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ via FGR. Detailed analyses for them were made and discussed.
