Edge flames have been interested as a basic structure that is concerned to flame stabilization and re-ignition of non-premixed flames. The edge flame consists of a lean premixed flame, a rich premixed flame, and a diffusion flame. In order to investigate fundamental structures of the edge flames at the conditions near the flammability limits, edge flames were stabilized within a heated narrow channel. Highly diluted partially premixed methane was used, and the flow rates of air and the partially premixed mixture were controlled. Various flame behaviors, including a transition between ordinary edge flames and premixed flames, were observed. Flame stabilization characteristics were examined as well. All flame stabilization conditions in this study showed a similar trend: characteristic time scales were inversely proportional to the equivalence ratio defined at the burner inlet. Finally, an interesting flame structure having a weak diffusion branch enveloped by a closed premixed branch was found near the flammability limits even in a fuel-air mixing layer. This structure was named as a "flame-drop" and the importance of this structure was first suggested.

본 실험 연구에서는 소형 고속기관의 가스엔진 특성을 다양한 방법으로 수행하였다. 그리고, 가스연료인 천연가스, 수소연료 및 휘발유 연료를 사용한 기관의 성능을 분석하고, 그에 대한 배기특성과 연소과정에 대하여 고찰하였다. 수소기관의 높은 회전과 고부하로 운전할 때 발생하는 역화를 방지하기 위하여 가스연료기관에 교축밸브를 설치하여 공기량을 조절하였다. 그리고 수소연료에 질소를 혼합하여 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 소형고속기관에 가스연료를 적용하여 운전하였을 때 여러 특성을 파악할 수 있었다.

Recently it is strongly required on lower fuel consumption. lower exhaust emission, higher engine performance. and social demands in a spark ignition gasoline engine. In this study. the experimental engine used at test. it has been modified the lean burn gasoline engine. and used the programmable engine management system, and connected the controller circuit which is designed for the engine control. At the parametric study of the engine experiment, it has been controlled with fuel injection, ignition timing. swirl mode, equivalence ratio engine dynamometer load and speed as the important factors governing the engine performance adaptively. It has been found the combustion characteristics to overcome the hysteresis phenomena between normal and lean air-fuel mixing ranges. by mean of the look-up table set up the mapping values. at the optimum conditions during the engine operation. As the result, it is found that the strength of the swirl flow with the variation of engine speed and load is effective on combustion characteristics to reduce the bandwidth of the hysteresis regions. The results show that mass fraction burned and heat release rate pattern with crank angle are reduced much rather, and brake specific fuel consumption is also reduced simultaneously.

The optimization of frontal device including fuel nozzle and swirler is required to secure the mixing of fuel and air and the combustion stability leading the reduction of pollutant emissions and the increase of combustion efficiency in gas turbine combustor. The effects of injection nozzle and swirler on the flow field, spray characteristics and consequently the combustion stability, were experimentally investigated by measuring the velocity field, droplet sizes of fuel spray, lean combustion limit and the temperature field in the main combustion region. Flow fields and spray characteristics were measured with APV(Adaptive Phase Doppler Velocimetry) under atmospheric condition using kerosine fuel. Temperatures were measured by Pt-Pt13%Rh, R-type thermocouple which was 0.2mm thick. Spray and flame was visualized by ICCD(Intensified Charge Coupled Device) camera. It was found that the dual swirler resulted in the biggest recirculation zone with the highest reverse flow velocity at the central region, which lead the most stable combustion. The various combustion characteristics were observed as a function of the geometries of injector and swirler, that gave a tip for the better design of gas turbine combustor.

Combustion chamber systems using spray impinged on walls have been studied for improving combustion characteristics in high speed direct injection diesel engines. The fuel spray injected in a small combustion chamber may be easily impinged and deposited on the wall. The fuel deposit has been considered as the cause for unburned emission due to difficulty of fuel-air mixing. In this paper w-shaped combustion chamber which has four raised pips on the side wall is introduced and discussed by comparing with conventional chamber with no pips. The computer code employing new spray-wall interaction model in general non-orthogonal grids is used in here. The model is applied into the new chamber shape with raised pips. In this chamber system four-hole nozzle is used, and the sprays injected from the each hole impact on lands raised from the chamber wall surface. After impacting, the sprays break up into much smaller drops and distribute over all the chamber space, instead of distributing just near the wall surface in conventional omega-shape. The results showed the potential of the w-shaped chamber employing pips for dispersing droplets so as tn avoid the fuel deposit regions.

An Ejector enhances system efficiency, are easily operated, have a mechanically simple structure, and do not require a power supply. Because of these advantages, the ejector has been applied to a variety of industrial fields such as refrigerators, power plants and oil plants. In this work, an ejector was used to safely recycle anode tail gas in a 75-kW Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell (MCFC) system at KEPCO Research Institute. In this system, the ejector is placed at mixing point between the anode tail gas and the cathode tail gas or the fresh air. Commercial ejectors are not designed for the actual operating conditions for our fuel cell system. A new ejector was therefore designed for use beyond conventional operating limits. In the first place, a few sample ejectors were manufacured and the entrainment ratio was measured at a dummy stack. Through this experiment, the optimum ejector was chosen. The 75-kW MCFC system equipped with this optimum ejector was operated successfully.

The effect of equivalence ratio and fuel/air mixing quality on the phase-resolved gas temperatures at different phases of the oscillating pressure cycle was experimentally investigated. An atmospheric pressure, optically accessible and laboratory-scale dump combustor operating on methane with heat release rate of 1.59kW was used. Temperature measurements were made using coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) at several spatial locations fur typical unstable combustion conditions. Analysis was conducted using parameters such as phase-resolved averaged temperature, normalized standard deviation and temperature probability distribution functions (PDFs). Also the probability on the occurrence of high temperature (over 1900K) was investigated to get the information on the perturbation of equivalence ratio and NOx emission characteristics. It was shown that most of temperature histograms exhibit Gaussian profile which has short breadth of temperature fluctuation at equivalence ratio of 0.6, while beta profile was predominant for the cases of other equivalence ratios (${\Phi}$=0.55, 0.50). It was also shown that phase-resolved averaged temperature oscillated in phase with pressure cycle, while normalized standard deviations which represent temporal turbulent intensity of temperature showed nearly constant value around 0.1. The characteristics on the occurrence of high temperature also displayed periodic wave form which was very similar to the pressure signal. And the amplitude of this profile went larger as the fuel/air mixing quality became poorer. These also provided additional information on the perturbation of equivalence ratio at flame as well as NOx emission characteristics.

최근 대기오염 방지를 위한 각종 규정들이 강화되고, 연료유 가격의 상승으로 인해 LNG(Liquefied Natural Gas)를 선박의 추진연료로 사용하는 Gas Fuelled Ship의 등장은 필연적이게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 Gas Fuelled Ship에서 연료로 사용되는 LNG를 DF(Dual-Fuel)엔진에 공급하기 전 기화 시켜주기 위해 Eglycol water(Ethylene glycol water)를 가열매체로 사용한 재기화 시스템을 구성하고, Eglycol과 물의 혼합비율에 따른 시스템 특성을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. DF엔진으로 공급되는 천연가스의 압력과 온도 그리고 유량이 일정하게 유지될 때 Eglycol의 혼합비율이 증가할수록 Eglycol water의 혼합비열이 낮아지게 되면서 물만을 사용했을 때와 대비하여 1.65배 많은 cycle 유량과 1.54배의 펌프 소요 동력이 요구됨을 확인하였고, vaporizer의 크기를 고정한 후 Eglycol의 혼합비에 따른 DF엔진으로 공급되는 천연가스의 온도 및 vaporizer 출구측 Eglycol water의 온도를 산정하였다.

실험실 규모 기포 유동층 반응기를 이용한 하수 슬러지와 석탄 및 우드 펠렛의 혼소 실험 및 회분 분석을 통한 슬래깅 성향을 살펴보았다. 연료는 일반 건조 및 수열탄화를 통해 제작된 하수 슬러지와 아역청탄, 우드 펠렛이 적용되었다. 연소 실험은 당량비 및 산화제 유량, 초기 온도를 고정하고 2종의 하수 슬러지 연료와 석탄 또는 우드 펠렛을 발열량 기준 50 : 50 비율로 혼합한 총 4개의 조건에 대해 반응기 온도 및 배가스 조성을 측정하였다. 배가스 중 $NO_x$는 모든 조건에서 대부분 NO의 형태로 400 ~ 600 ppm 범위에서 측정되었다. $SO_2$는 원료 내 황 함량을 고려하면 하수 슬러지의 투입량이 큰 영향을 미쳤을 것으로 예상되는 가운데 수열탄화 연료가 일반 건조 연료에 비해 다소 낮은 경향을 보였다. 비산 회분 조성 분석 결과 하수 슬러지 연료가 슬래깅/파울링 가능성을 높일 것으로 생각되며, 수열탄화 연료가 일반 건조 연료에 비해 상대적으로 양호한 결과를 보일 것으로 예상되었다.
