An experimental study was conducted to measure laminar burning velocity and Markstein length of SNG fuel with 3% of hydrogen contents from spherical propagating flames at normal and elevated initial pressure. These results were compared with numerical calculations by Premix code with GRI-mech 3.0, USC II and UC San Diego to provide suitable mechanism for SNG fuel. As a result of this work, it was found that the burning velocities and Markstein lengths of SNG fuel decrease with increase of initial pressure regardless of equivalence ratio. In addition, numerical calculations with GRI-mech 3.0 were coincided with experimental results.

A light collecting probe named Multi-color Integrated Cassegrain Receiving Optics (MICRO) is applied to spark-ignited spherical spray flames to obtain the flame propagation speed in freely falling droplet suspension produced by an ultrasonic atomizer. Two MICRO probes are used to monitor time-series signals of OH chemiluminescence from two different locations in the flame. By detecting the arrival time difference of the propagating flame front, the flame propagation speed is calculated with a two-point delay-time method. In addition, time-series images of OH chemiluminescence are simultaneously obtained by a high-speed digital CCD camera to ensure the validity of the two-point delay-time method by the MICRO system. Furthermore, the relationship between the spray properties measured by phase Doppler anemometer (PDA) and the flame propagation speed are discussed with three different experimental conditions by changing the fuel injection rate. It was confirmed that the two-point delay-time method with two MICRO probes is useful and convenient to obtain the flame propagation speed and that the flame propagation speed depends on the spray properties.

Furthermore, relationship between the spray properties measured by phase Doppler anemometer (PDA) and the flame propagation speed are discussed with k different experimental conditions by changing the fuel injection rate. It was confirmed that the MICRO probe system was very useful and convenient to obtain the flame propagation speed and that the flame propagation speed was different depending on the spray properties.

Computational experiments on fundamental un stretched laminar burning velocities and flame response to stretch (represented by the Markstein number) of hydrogen-air flames at high temperatures and pressures were conducted in order to understand the dynamics of the flames including hydrogen as an attractive energy carrier in conditions encountered in practical applications such as internal combustion engines. Outwardly propagating spherical premixed flames were considered for a fuel-equivalence ratio of 0.6, pressures of 5 to 50 atm, and temperatures of 298 to 1000 K. For these conditions, ratios of unstretched-to-stretched laminar burning velocities varied linearly with flame stretch (represented by the Karlovitz number), similar to the flames at normal temperature and normal to moderately elevated pressures, implying that the "local conditions" hypothesis can be extended to the practical conditions. Increasing temperatures tended to reduce tendencies toward preferential-diffusion instability behavior (increasing the Markstein number) whereas increasing pressures tended to increase tendencies toward preferential-diffusion instability behavior (decreasing the Markstein number).

A simplified method that models the deflagration process occurring in closed or vented vessels is described. When combustion occurs within the spherical or cylindrical vessels, the flame moves spherically or segmentally to the vessel periphery. The volume and area of each element along the propagating flame front are calculated by using simple geometrical rules. For instabilities and turbulence resulting in enhanced burning rates, a simple analysis results in reasonable agreement with the experimental pressure transients when two burning rates (a laminar burning rate prior to the onset of instability and an enhanced burning rate) were used. Pressure reduction caused by a vent opening at predetermined pressure was modeled. Parameters examined in the modeling include ignition location, mixture concentration, vented area, and vent opening pressure. It was found that venting was effective in reducing the peak pressure experienced in vessels. The model can be expected to estimate reasonable peak pressures and flame front distances by modeling the enhanced burning rates, that is, turbulent enhancement factor.

The present experiment was conducted to measure the unstretched laminar burning velocity and cellular instability of DME-air and syngas (in steps of 25 %) added DME-air premixed flames using propagating spherical flame. The experimental results were discussed in two focuses which are effects of syngas fraction and initial pressure on Markstein length, unstretched laminar burning velocities, and cellular instability. The flame instability was evaluated by the Markstein length and cellularity which is caused by diffusional-thermal instability and hydrodynamic instability.

To measure laminar burning velocity in methane/air/ethylene mixture flame, propagating centrally ignited spherical premixed flame to radial direction was measured by high-speed schlieren images with elevated pressure. In this study, The experimentally measured unstretched laminar burning velocities of methane was compared with GRI mech 3.0 to validate experimental data and choose the radius range, respectively. numerical prediction using the PREMIX code with GRI mech 3.0, USC mech II,, and Wang mech were evaluated through comparison with experimental burning velocity with consideration of extrapolation on linear/nonlinear model.

Experiments were conducted in a constant pressure combustion chamber using schlieren system to investigate the effects of carbon dioxide/nitrogen/helium diluents on cellular instabilities of syngas-air premixed flames at room temperature and elevated pressures. Laminar burning velocities and Markstein lengths were calculated by analyzing high-speed schlieren images at various diluent concentrations and equivalence ratios. Experimental results showed substantial reduction of the laminar burning velocities and of the Markstein lengths with the diluent additions in the fuel blends. Effective Lewis numbers of helium-diluted syngas-air flames increased but those of carbon dioxide- and nitrogen-diluted syngas-air flames decreased in increase of diluents in the reactant mixtures. With helium diluent, the propensity for cells formation was significantly diminished, whereas the cellular instabilities for carbon dioxide-diluted and nitrogen-diluted syngas-air flames were not suppressed.

본 연구는 구형으로 전파하는 합성가스-공기 화염의 셀 불안정성에 있어서 헬륨, 이산화탄소, 질소의 희석제 첨가효과에 관하여 실험을 수행하였다. 층류화염속도와 Markstein Length는 여러 희석제 농도와 당량비에서 측정된 쉴리렌 이미지를 분석함으로써 측정하였다. 실험결과 반응혼합물에 희석제를 첨가했을 경우 층류화염속도와 Markstein Length는 두드러진 감소를 보였다. 희석제로 헬륨을 첨가한 합성가스-공기화염에서의 유효 루이스 수는 증가했지만 이산화탄소와 질소를 첨가시킨 혼합물에서는 희석제의 첨가량이 증가할수록 유효 루이스 수는 감소하였다. 또한, 헬륨으로 희석시킨 경우 셀 형성은 현저하게 억제된 경향성을 보였으나 이산화탄소나 질소를 첨가했을 경우 셀 불안정성이 완화되는 효과는 없었다.
