Characteristics of lifted flame for highly diluted propane with nitrogen in high temperature coflowing air have been experimentally investigated, and the stabilization mechanism of lifted flame in high temperature air coflow have been proposed. As the coflow temperature increases, the liftoff height of flame decreased due to the increase of stoichiometry laminar burning velocity. At same coflow temperature, the difference of liftoff height between the fuel mole fractions has been disappeared by scaling the liftoff velocity with stoichiometry laminar burning velocity. It has been found that lifted flame can be stabilized for even smaller fuel velocity than stoichiometry laminar burning velocity. This can be attributed to buoyancy effect and the liftoff velocity characteristics for coflow temperature support it.

Characteristics of laminar lifted flames of propane highly-diluted with nitrogen have been investigated at various temperatures of coflow air. At various fuel mole fractions, the base of laminar lifted flames has the structure of tribrachial (or triple) flame. The liftoff heights are correlated well with the stoichiometric laminar burning velocity considering initial temperature at a given coflow velocity. It shows that lifted flames are stabilized on the basis of the balance mechanism between local flow velocity and the propagation speed of tribrachial flame, regardless of the temperature of coflow and fuel mole fraction. Lifted flames exist for a jet velocity even smaller than the stoichiometric laminar burning velocity, and liftoff velocity increases more rapidly than stoichiometric laminar burning velocity as coflow temperature increases. These can be attributed to the buoyancy effect due to the density difference.

Characteristics of turbulent lifted flames in coflow jets with the varying initial temperature have recently been investigated about only propane case diluted by nitrogen. The investigation has firstly improved a premixed flame model and a large scale mixing model among competing theories on the stabilization mechanism of turbulent flame to be suitable for a high temperature condition. In this research, about methane with good availability to apply for a practical combustor as clean fuel, its characteristics of turbulent nonpremixed flame have been studied experimentally. The results have shown an effectiveness of the premixed flame model and the large scale mixing model considered initial temperature variation. Additionally, considering the axial distance where the mean fuel concentration falls below the stoichiometric level along the center line of the jet according to diluting nitrogen, the premixed flame model have more accurately been improved.

The NOx emission characteristics of jet flames fueled with It was studied. Experimental and numerical investigations were carried out for various flames with varying equivalence ratio, fuel flow rate and nozzle diameter. The Emission indices of NOx(EINOx) were measured by chemiluminescent method and calculated by simulation using detailed chemistry. The results show that the numerical results represent well the trends of EINOx experimentally observed. EINOx of H$_2$ flame steeply increase at small equivalence ratio, gently increase and steady at more than equivalence ratio is 4.0. EINOx trends of H$_2$ flame can be describe in function of residence time in the high-temperature region weighted by the maximum flame temperature.

Combustion using oxygen enriched air is known as a technology which can increase thermal efficiency due to increase of the flame temperature. Flame shapes, schlieren photos, OH radical chemiluminescence and local flame temperature were examined as a function of OEC(Oxygen Enriched Concentration) in a coaxial non-premixed jet. With increase of OEC, flame length and width decreased, but its brightness increased significantly, and the size of vortices in the flame also increased. Especially, the reaction around the flame surface became active. The strong OH intensity appeared to be made and moved from middle stream to upper one with increase of OEC, which shows combustion reaction in the upper stream becomes more dominant In addition, the temperature distributions of the flames showed similar tendency with OH radical intensities. A flame with high temperature and strong stability was obtained with increasing OEC of the coflow.

For proton exchange membrane fuel cell, it is very important to design the flow channel on separation plate optimally to maximize the current density at same electrochemical reaction surface and reduce the concentration polarization occurred at high current density. In this paper, three dimensional computation model including anode and cathode domain together was developed to examine effects of flow patterns and operation conditions such as humidity and operating temperature on performance of fuel cell. Results show that voltage at counter flow condition is higher than that at coflow condition in parallel and interdigitated flow pattern. And fuel cell with interdigitated flow pattern which has better mass transport by convection flow through gas diffusion layer has higher performance than with parallel flow pattern but its pressure drop is increased such that the trade off between performance and pressure drop should be considered for selection of flow pattern of fuel cell.

A new technique for control of size and shape of flame-made particles is Introduced. The characteristic sintering time can be controlled Independently of collision time by heating the particles with irradiation of laser because the sintering time strongly depends on temperature. A coflow oxy-hydrogen diffusion flame burner was used for $SiCl_4$ conversion to silica particle. Nanometer sized aggregates irradiated by a high power CW $CO_2$ laser beam were rapidly heated up to high temperatures and then were sintered to approach volume-equivalent spheres. The sphere collides much slower than the aggregate, which results in reduction of sizes of particles maintaining spherical shape. Light scattering of Ar ion laser and TEM observation using a local sampling device were used to confirm the above effects. When the $CO_2$ laser was irradiated at low position from the burner surface, particle generation due to gas absorption of laser beam occurred and thus scattering intensity increased with $CO_2$ laser power. At high irradiation position, scattering intensity decreased with $CO_2$ laser power and TEM image showed a clear mark of evaporation and recondensation of particles for high $CO_2$ laser power. When the laser was irradiated between the above two positions where small aggregates exist, average size of spherical particles obviously decreased to 58% of those without $CO_2$ laser irradiation with the spherical shape. Even for increased carrier gas flow rate by a factor of three, TEM photograph also revealed considerable reduction of particle size.

자발화 특성은 디젤 및 PCCI 엔진의 설계에서 중요한 인자이다. 특히, 디젤분무화염은 자발화현상에 의해서 형성되어 노즐에서 부상된다. 노즐과 부상화염 사이의 영역에서 분무된 디젤의 중앙으로 주위 공기의 유입이 발생하기 때문에, 그 부상된 화염은 매연 생성에 영향을 준다. 본 연구에서 간단한 모델로써 동축류 제트를 적용하였고, 점화지연시간에 대한 자발화 과정에서 발생하는 열손실의 영향을 확인하였다. 메탄($CH_4$), 에틸렌($C_2H_4$), 에탄($C_2H_6$), 프로핀($C_3H_6$), 프로판($C_3H_8$), 및 노말 부탄(n-$C_4H_{10}$)의 연료들을 고온의 공기로 분사하였으며 자발화된 부상화염의 높이를 측정하였다. 그 결과로 자발화된 부상화염의 높이와 열손실을 고려한 점화지연시간과의 상관관계를 결정하였다.

본 연구에서는 국내외 저탄소 녹색성장을 위한 대안으로서 수소에너지와 그 이용 기술에 대한 관심이 높아지는 추세에 발맞춰 무탄소 연료인 수소를 LNG 의 주성분인 메탄, 메탄-프로판, 메탄-프로판-에탄 동축류 확산화염 내에 첨가하여 화염형상 및 연소생성물에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 상온상압 조건의 확산화염에 수소를 단계적으로 첨가하여 실제 생성되는 연소생성물의 변화 추이를 가스 분석기를 이용하여 실험적으로 관찰하였고 확산화염의 형상은 디지털카메라를 이용하여 단계적으로 관찰 하였다. 실험결과에서 확산화염에 수소를 첨가함에 따라 질소산화물의 생성량이 선형에 가깝게 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이것은 수소의 상대적으로 높은 단열화염온도와 빠른 연소속도가 Thermal NOx의 생성을 촉진했기 때문이다. 반면 이산화탄소의 생성량은 감소하는 경향이 나타났는데 수소를 첨가함에 따라 메탄, 메탄-프로판, 메탄-에탄-프로판의 혼합 확산화염에 포함되어있는 전체 탄소비율이 줄어들어 이산화탄소의 생성량이 감소한 것이다. 이는 선박에서 LNG-수소의 혼합 연료사용으로 인해 온실가스인 이산화탄소를 저감할 수 있는 하나의 방안으로 고려될 수 있다는 것을 의미한다.
