The thermo-acoustic instability in the combustion process of a gas turbine is caused by the interaction of the heat release mechanism and the pressure perturbation. These acoustic vibrations cause fatigue failure of the combustor and decrease the combustion efficiency. This study is to develop a segmented dynamic thermo-acoustic model to understand combustion instability of gas turbine. Therefore, this study required a dynamic analysis rather than static analysis, and developed a segmented model that can analyze the performance of the system over time using the Matlab/Simulink. The developed model can confirm the thermo-acoustic combustion instability and exhaust gas concentration in the combustion chamber according to the equivalent ratio change, and confirm the thermo-acoustic combustion instability for the inlet temperature and the load changes. As a result, segmented dynamic thermo-acoustic model has been developed to analyze combustion instability under the operating condition.

Thermo-acoustic emission (AE) from composite laminates under the repetitive thermal cyclic loads have been quantitatively analyzed in consideration of AE source mechanisms. The repetitive thermal load brought about a large reduction, i.e. an exponential decrease in AE total ringdown counts and AE amplitudes. It was thought that generation of thermo-AE during the first thermal cycle was not caused by crack propagation but by secondary microfracturing due to abrasive contact between crack surfaces.

본 연구에서는 열/음향 불안정성 환경 모사를 위하여 수평형의 Rijke tube를 설계/제작하였고, 이를 이용하여 구현하고자 하는 주파수대의 열구배를 갖는 공진현상이 발생됨을 확인하였다. Rijke tube를 이용해 열 음향 불안정 환경을 조성한 후, 음향공을 장착하여 얻어진 감쇠특성을 상온실험 자료와 비교/분석하여 열 음향 불안정 환경에서의 음향공 감쇠특성을 확인하였다. 열/유동 환경하에서의 감쇠 시간이 상온 환경에 비해 약 40% 증가함을 확인하였으며, 이로부터 음향공 설계시 열/유동 환경이 고려되어야 함을 확인하였다.

The thermo-acoustic emission (AE) technique has been applied for nondestructive characterization of composite laminates subjected to cryogenic cooling. Thermo-AE events during heating and cooling cycles showed a Kaiser effect. An analysis of the thermo-AE behavior obtained during the 1st heating period suggested a method for determining the stress-free temperature of the composite laminates. Three different thermo-AE types classified by a short-time Fourier transform of AE signals enabled to offer a nondestructive estimation of the cryogenic damages of the composites, in that the different thermo-AE types corresponded to secondary microfracturing in the matrix contacting between crack surfaces and some abrasive contact between broken fiber ends during thermal load cycles.

Thermo-acoustic waves can be thermally generated in a compressible flow field by rapid heating and cooling, and chemical reaction near the boundary walls. This mechanism is very important in the space environment in which natural convection does not exist. Also this may be a significant factor for heat transfer when the fluids are close to the thermodynamic critical point. In this study, the generation and transmission characteristics of thermo-acoustic waves in an air-filled confined domain with two-step pulsed heating are studied numerically. The governing equations are discretized using control volume method, and are solved using PISO algorithm and second-order upwind scheme. For the purpose of stable solution, time step was set to the order of $1\times10_-9s,\;and\;grids\;are\;50\times2000$. Results show that temperature and pressure distributions of fluid near the boundary wall subjected to a rapid heating are increased abruptly, and the induced thermo-acoustic wave propagates through the fluid until it decays due to viscous and heat dissipation. Pressure waves have sharp front shape and decay with a long tail in the case of step heating, but these waves have sharp pin shape in the case of pulsed heating.

This study conducted a 3D thermo-acoustic analysis based on the helmholtz solver to analyze the major resonance modes causing combustion instability in a single-can combustor. The experimental investigations were carried out on a test rig designed by the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM) under various conditions of hydrogen co-firing and fuel staging. Through these experiments, two primary unstable frequencies were identified. To determine the resonance modes of these frequencies, a 3D thermo-acoustic analysis was conducted using temperature information from the test rig. The results confirmed that the unstable frequencies observed in the experiments were all longitudinal modes. Additionally, the mode shapes identified in the analysis facilitated a simplification of the exit geometry for the low-order network model, confirming that this did not significantly affect the fundamental resonance modes.

For high-speed aircraft and high-speed civil transport planes, certain structural skin components are subjected to very large acoustic loads in an elevated thermal environment. In this study, we used the single-mode Fokker-Panck distribution to predict displacements of isotropic plates subject to thermo-acoustic combined load. The single mode was formulated to predict the nonlinear dynamic responses of postbuckled plates under acoustic random excitation. Acoustic random excitation was used with Gauss distribution. Some important effects of the snap-through motion on the dynamic responses of the postbuckled plates are described.

열-음향방출(thermo-AE) 기법을 이용하여 두께 3mm, $[+45_6/-45_6]_s$ 복합재료 적층판의 열응력 유기 손상에 대한 비파괴평가의 유효성을 연구하였다. 반복적인 열부하 사이클에 의해서 thermo-AE 사상수가 감소하는 경향이 뚜렷하게 나타나서 열부하에 따른 카이저효과가 관찰되었다. 열부하사이클중의 thermo-AE거동을 분석하여 복합재료의 응력자유온도를 결정할 수 있었다. 초음파 C스캔, 광학현미경, 주사형 전자현미경을 통해 섬유파단과 모재파손이 관찰되었으며, 이들 파손 인자는 thermo-AE 신호의 단시간 퓨리에 변환처리에 의해 생성된 3종류의 서로 다른 시간-주파수 특성과 대응하였나 이 특성을 이용하여 복합재료의 냉각열처리 및 반복 열부하사이클시의 손상발생과정 및 내부 마찰거동 내역을 추적할 수 있었다.

Thermo-acoustic instability of methane/ air flames in an industrial gas-turbine combustor is numerically investigated adopting CFD analysis. The combustor has 37 EV burners through which methane and air are mixed and then injected into the chamber. First, steady fuel! air mixing and flow characteristics established by the burner are investigated by numerical analysis with single burner. And then, based on information on the flow data, the burners are modeled numerically via equivalent swirlers, which facilitates the numerical analysis with the whole combustion system including the chamber and numerous burners. Finally, reactive flow fields within the chamber are investigated numerically by unsteady analysis and thereby, spontaneous instability is simulated. Based on the numerical results, scaling analysis is conducted to find out the instability mechanism in the combustor and the passive control method to suppress the instability is proposed and verified numerically.
