A study has been conducted to investigate the effect of swirl angle in low swirl combustor. In this study, the employed swirl angles were $28^{\circ}$, $32^{\circ}$ and $37^{\circ}$. Direct flame photos show that the width of the flame is expanded and the length of the flame is shortened when swirl angle is increased. Also, as the swirl angle was increased, the flame stability region could be widened due to the expansion of lower flammable limit. Between 3 and 7kW, CO emissions was below 10 ppm and NOx emissions was also below 27 ppm at $O_2$ 15% basis over the lean burning range of 0.6 < ${\Phi}$ < 0.9. From this investigation of stability expansion effect and emission performance, it was identified that the swirl angle $37^{\circ}$ is most suitable swirling condition in the low swirl model combustor.

This experimental study was to investigate spray angles and drop sizes in an external mixed twin-fluid swirl jet nozzle. Twin-fluid swirl jet nozzle with swirlers designed four swirl angles such as $0^{\circ},\;22.5^{\circ},\;45^{\circ},\;64.2^{\circ}$ was employed. A PDA system was utilized for the measurement of drop size and mean velocity. Water and air were used as the working fluids in this experiment. The mass flow rate of water was fixed as 0.03 kg/min, and air flow rates were controlled to have the air/liquid mass ratio from 1.0 to 6.0. As a result, swirl angle controlled to spray angles and drop sizes. It was found that swirl angle was increased with spray angle and with decreased SMD. However, the effect of swirl angle was reduced at large air/liquid mass ratio(Mr=6.0).

Swirl and tumble flows in an engine in-cylinder have been simulated by using a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics code, and the results are validated in comparison with experimental data. The large eddy simulation based on the Smagorinsky model and the fractional step method is adopted to describe the turbulence of in-cylinder flows and to save computing time, respectively. The main purpose of this study is connected with the effect of various conditions of intake flows on formation and development of in-cylinder tumble and swirl motions. The engine speeds considered are 1000 rpm and 3000 rpm for intake flows with inclination angles between $-10^{\circ}$ and $20^{\circ}$ at deflection angles of $0^{\circ}$, $22.5^{\circ}$, and $30^{\circ}$. The results are discussed by visualizing flow fields and by evaluating parameters in relation to vortex intensity such as swirl and tumble ratios.

Numerical analysis of the spray angles of Dual swirl injector were investigated to obtain basic design data and to predict the combustion performance. Using the commercial thermal hydraulic program, discharge coefficients and spray angles were numerically analyzed with recess length, pressure drop, velocity ratio, mixture ratio and back hole length. Water was used as simulants for oxidizer and fuel, respectively to compare the experimental results. Swirl injectors were designed to inject oxidizer of 70.5g/s and fuel of 29.5g/s at the pressure drop of 1MPa and two recess lengths were considered. In addition, the effect of injector geometry coefficient and velocity ratio on the discharge coefficient was studied.

본 연구의 목적은 저선회 모델 연소기에서 저선회 연소의 특성을 확인하는 것이다. 이를 위해 선회각도에 따른 화염의 형상 및 안정화 영역, 배기성능에 대한 평가가 실험적으로 수행되었다. 저선회 연소의 큰 특징은 화염이 부상되어 존재하게 되는데, 이러한 부상화염은 확대유동과 예혼합 화염의 전파특성이 절묘하게 결합되어 발생하게 된다. 본 연소기에서 이러한 부상화염의 특징을 속도 유동장을 통하여 확인하였으며 화염을 가시화하여 나타내었다. 가시화된 화염은 열용량과 당량비에 따라 분류하였다. 선회각도의 변화에 따른 연구를 통해 선회각도만으로도 희박 가연한계를 확장시킬 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 선회각도가 증가할수록 혼합이 향상되고 체류시간이 짧아져 NOx와 CO의 배출이 감소되는 것으로 확인되었다.

Numerical studies on the spray characteristics of closed-type and open-type swirl injectors were conducted using ANSYS Fluent. By changing injection pressures, discharge coefficient and spray angle were calculated using the Reynolds stress BSL turbulent model. The numerical results were compared with previous experimental data to examine their accuracy. For a closed-type swirl injector, spray angles matched well with experimental results and discharge coefficients showed approximately 8% differences. On the contrary, discharge coefficients of an open-type swirl injector were similar with experimental result but its spray angles presented around 15% differences. Though the numerical results were not perfectly consistent with experimental data, it is thought that they could be sufficiently used for analyzing spray characteristics, specially which is hard to be measured from experiments. Numerical simulation with different turbulent models was also performed to examine their effects on the numerical results.

A diesel engine has been studied for many years to improve fuel economy and to reduce emissions as important factors governing the emission performance of diesel engines. This study addresses to swirl effects on combustion characteristics in a large diesel engine. The transport equations of flows and chemical reactions are given for fully compressible fluid. The simulations have been done for compression and expansion strokes and the results are given at several crank angles which are the angles at just before injection start, TDC, ATDC 90 and just before exhaust valve open. The results show that the strength of the swirl flow makes many effects on burning fuel and forming emissions.

Swirling air flow in a horizontal round tube was experimentally studied for its visualization. The present investigation deals with swirl angle, flow visualization studies and accompanying vortex core behavior by using oil smoke and a hot wire anemometer for Re = 40,000 and 50000 at X/D = 41, 59 and 71. In the swirl air flow, a vortex core was formed at high swirl intensity along the test tube. The swirl angle and the vortex core depended on the swirl intensity along the test tube. The results of swirl angles measured by flow visualization and hot wire reasonably agree with those of previous studies.

선박용 질소산화물 저감장치의 혼합영역에서 유동혼합 성능을 개선하기 위해 스월형 혼합기가 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 스월형 혼합기와 각단의 날개 각도가 조절 가능한 다단 스월형 혼합기가 고려되었다. 두 스월형 혼합기의 최적 날개 각도를 도출하기 위해 날개 각도가 균일지수 및 압력강하에 미치는 영향을 수치해석 기법을 이용하여 조사하였다. 스월형 혼합기에서는 혼합기의 날개 각도를 $10^{\circ}$ 에서 $80^{\circ}$ 까지 변화시킬 때, 최적의 유동혼합 성능은 베인 각도 $30^{\circ}$에서 $60^{\circ}$ 범위에서 나타났으나, 압력강하는 베인 각도 증가에 따라 선형적으로 증가하였다. 반면 다단 스월형 혼합기에서는 각 단의 날개각도를 조절함으로써 압력강하를 낮추면서도 높은 혼합성능의 유지가 가능함을 보였다.
