A numerical study has been conducted to characterize the transient flow in a utility gas turbine burning natural gas. The solution domain encompasses the supply gas pressure regulator to the combustor of the gas turbine that employs multi-nozzle fuel injectors. Some results produced for verification in the present study agree suite well with the experimental ones. It is found that the total gas flow may decrease noticeably during its combustion mode change, which would be the reason of momentary combustion upset, when a reference case of opening ratios of control valves in the system is applied. Several parameters are then varied in order to make the total gas flow stable over that period of time. Results of this study may be useful to understand the unsteady behavior of combustion system burning natural gas.

Ni and NiO particles were made by a combustion synthesis process. The characteristics of synthesized powders were investigated with various kinds and amounts of fuels such as urea, citric acid and glycine. Ni phase particles without NiO phase were obtained through combustion synthesis process in air atmosphere with-out further calcinations process, when the content of glycine was 2.44 times of the stoichiometric ratio in the precursor solution. Primary particle sizes of synthesized Ni and NiO particles were about 20∼30 nm.

Lean combustion in a SI engine is one of the best solution for the improvement of fuel economy and reduction of pollutant emission. In order to access a lean combustion engine, stable combustion at lean AlF ratio is needed. In this paper, the effect of fuel injection timing on lean misfire limit has been investigated in an MPI engine. To investigate the interaction of injection timing and intake flow characteristics, three different swirl generating SCV(swirl control valve) configurations were considered, and investigated their effects on lean misfire limit and torque at full load operation. Also the effects of spark timing on lean combustion has been investigated. Lean combustion has been examined and the results are reported in this paper. SCV B has been developed to satisfy the requirements of sufficient swirl generation to improve lean combustion and stable performance. It is found that injection timing, spark timing and intake air motion govern the stable lean combustion.

Mathematical modeling of combustion characteristics in HVOF thermal spray processes was carried out on the basis of equilibrium chemistry. The main objective of this work was the development of a computation code which allows to determine chemical composition of combustion products, adiabatic flame temperature, thermodynamic and transport properties. The free energy minimization method was employed with the descent Newton-Raphson technique for numerical solution of systems of nonlinear thermochemical equations. Adiabatic flame temperature was calculated by using a Newton#s iterative method incorporating the computation module of chemical composition. The performance of this code was verified by comparing computational results with data obtained by ChemKin code and in the literature. Comparisons between the calculated and measured flame temperatures showed a deviation less than 2%. It was observed that adiabatic flame temperature augments with increase in combustion pressure; the influence was significant in the region of low pressure but becomes weaker and weaker with increase in pressure. Relationships of adiabatic flame temperature, dissociation ratio and combustion pressure were also analyzed.

Amorphous agglomerates of carbon nanospheres (CNS) with a diameter range of 10-50 nm were synthesized using the solution combustion method. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) revealed a densely packed high surface area of $SP^2$-hybridized carbon; however, there were no crystalline structural components, as can be seen from the scanning electron microscopy, HRTEM, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and thermal gravimetric analyses. Electrochemical and thermo catalytic decomposition study results show that the material can be used as a potential electrode candidate for the fabrication of energy storage devices and also for the production of free hydrogen if such devices are used in a fluidized bed reactor loaded with the as-prepared CNS as the catalyst bed.

[ $LaFeO_3$ ] powders were synthesized using a method involving solution combustion, and the surface properties of these powders were examined by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. As the amount of fuel increased during the synthesis, the $LaFeO_3$ powders became amorphous with a large plate-like shape. It was found that the O 1s spectra were composed of two types of photoelectrons by deconvolutioning the spectra. Photoelectrons with higher binding energy come from adsorbed oxygen ($O^-$) whereas those with lower energy come from lattice oxygen ($O^{2-}$). The ratio of adsorbed and lattice oxygen increased as the ratio of the fuel and nitrate (${\Phi}$) increased. The binding energy of both types of oxygen increased as ${\Phi}$ increased due to the formation of carbonates.

Methanol is a liquid fuel which could also be produced from renewable energy sources and has appreciably high energy density. In this work, we investigated the application of $Ce_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{2-x}$ supported Cu and Ni catalysts for hydrogen production via methanol steam reforming. Catalysts were synthesized by solution combustion synthesis. The prepared catalysts with various active materials and Cu loading amounts were tested in a reactor at $200-300^{\circ}C$, 0-5 barg range and steam to methanol molar ratio was 1.5. The catalytic properties of Cu and Ni were compared, and the catalytic performance was shown to depend on the amounts of metal loading and operating conditions such as reaction temperature and pressure.

본 연구에서는 분사연소합성(SCS)을 위한 기초단계로서 용액연소합성에 대한 거동을 살펴보고자 알루미나 합성을 모델로 하였으며 이를 위해 전구체에 대한 열분해거동, 그리고 각 온도에서의 평형종 분압 계산 및 합성과정을 조사하였다. 각각의 열중량 분석(TGA) 결과 산화제와 환원제(연료)의 열분해 이력이 서로 다르게 나타났으며, 열역학 응용 프로그램인 ChemSag에 의한 평형종 분압의 계산에서 연소속도를 저하시킬 수 있는 $CO_2$와 수증기 가스 분압이 상당부분 존재하였다. 산화제/환원제 혼합물의 열분석(DTA/TG) 결과 산화제와 환원제의 열분해 거동의 차이, 그리고 매우 작은 시료의 양으로 인해 263$^{\circ}C$에서 발열피크가 매우 작게 나타났다. 열분석 시료에 비해 발열 에너지를 높이기 위해 산화제와 환원제 혼합 전구체를 비이커에서 증기압을 조절하며 가열시켜 본 결과 27$0^{\circ}C$에서 $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$생성물을 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서 분사연소합성 반응을 통해 세라믹 원료를 합성하기 위해서는 연소과정 중 열분해 거동과 평형종의 분압을 고려하여야 한다.

$Li_2$$ZrO_3$ powder which is one of the candidates of breeding materials for the fusion reactor was syn-thesized by a precipitation-combustion process. Although precipitates from the reaction between zirconium nitrate and citric acid were existed in a precursor solution. $Li_2$$ZrO_3$ could easily be obtained by using the mixed fuel of urea and citric acid in stoichiometric composition. The phases of as-synthesized powder con-sisted of $Li_2$$ZrO_3$ and small amounts of $Li_6$$Zr_2O_3$ and $Li_2$$ZrO_3$ The latter phases disappeared after the cal-cination at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. The primary particle size and the specific surface area of as-synthesized powders were smaller than 20nm and 10-14 $M^2$/g, respectively. The primary particle size of the precipitation-combustion synthesized powders was affected by the size of precipitates present in a precursor solution.

In this study, syngas which is reformed from fossil fuel and has hydrogen as a major component, was added to a gasoline engine to improve combustion stability and exhaust emissions of idle state. Syngas fraction of the total supplied fuel varied to 0 %, 25 %, 50 % with various ignition timing and excess air ratio. Combustion stability, exhaust emissions, fuel consumption and exhaust gas temperature were measured to investigate the effects of syngas addition on idle performance. Results showed that syngas has ability to widely extend lean operation limit and ignition retard range with dramatical reduction of engine out emissions. It is supposed that the usage of syngas in the internal combustion engine is an effective solution to meet the future strict emission regulations.
