An experimental study has been conducted to evaluate the effects of $CO_2$ on heat transfer from oxygen-enriched hydrogen flame. Experiments were performed on flames stabilized by a co-flow swirl burner, which was mounted on top of the furnace. Five different oxidizer compositions were prepared by replacing $N_2$ with $CO_2$. In a steady state, the total as well as radiative heat flux from the flame to the wall of furnace have been measured using a heat flux meter. Temperature distribution in furnace also has been measured and compared. By increasing $CO_2$ proportion in the oxidizer, the convection played a more significant role rather than radiation. Overall temperature in the furnace was seen to be decreased, while the total heat flux has increased.

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.

The present study numerically investigate the detailed structure of the syngas diffusion flames. In order to realistically represent the turbulence-chemistry interaction, the transient flamelet model has been applied to simulate the combustion processes and $NO_X$ formation in the syngas turbulent nonpremixed flames. The single mixture fraction formulation is extended to account for the effects of the secondary inlet mixture. Computations are the wide range of syngas compositions and oxidizer dilutions. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussion has been made for the effects of syngas composition and oxidizer dilution on the structure of the syngas-air and syngas-oxygen turbulent nonpremixed flames.

The dynamic behaviors of the single vortex and flame-vortex interaction in a $CH_4/Air$ diffusion flame with addition of $CO_2$ were investigated numerically. The numerical method was based on a predictor-corrector for low Mach number flow. A two-step global reaction mechanism was adopted as a combustion model. Through comparison of results by effect of $CO_2$ added either on the fuel or oxidizer side, it was found that the growth of single vortex and entrainment of surrounding fluid by $CO_2$addition on the fuel side are larger than those by $CO_2$ addition on oxidizer side. Also, when $CO_2$ is added on fuel side, flame-vortex interaction becomes more significant than on air side.

A numerical study for spray flow of fuel and oxidizer droplets in the combustion chamber has been conducted prior to the analysis of spray combustion of the liquid rocket engine. As the spray combustion model, DSF model and Euler-Lagrange scheme have been used. While the coupling effects of the droplets between gas phase and evaporated vapor have been calculated using PSIC model, SIMPLER algorithm and QUICK scheme have been used as numerical schemes. As the results, the calculations have shown velocity and temperature distribution in combustion chamber as well as mole fraction of fuel and oxidizer.

Recently, the development of propellant trends toward minimum smoke signature, insensitivity and high performance. PSAN has been used as a oxidizer for less sensitive minimum smoke propellant. Unfortunately, it provides low performance to propellant. Energetic polymers such as GAP and PGN are frequently proposed for use in minimum smoke Propellants to overcome the energy Penalty imposed by using AN as the oxidizer. In this study the mechanical properties, glass transition temperature and viscosity of PGN and EPGN binder were investigated.

Mild combustion is considered as a promising combustion technology for energy saving and low emission of combustion product gases. In this paper, the controllability of reaction region in mild combustion is examined by using co-axial air nozzle. For this purpose, numerical approach is carried out. Propane is considered for fuel and air is considered for oxidizer and the temperature of air is assumed 900K slightly higher than auto ignition temperature of propane. But unlike main air, the atmospheric condition of co-axial air is considered. Various cases are conducted to verify the characteristics of Co-Axial air burner configuration. The use of coaxial air can affect reaction region. These modification help the mixing between fuel and oxidizer. Then, reaction region is reduced compare to normal burner configuration. The enhancement of main air momentum also affects on temperature uniformity and reaction region. The eddy dissipation concept turbulence/chemistry interaction model is used with two step of global chemical reaction model.

This study presents relations between the time lag and interaction index of the impinging-jet injectors using time lag model in a model chamber. To analyze the response of the flame, 5% amplitude of oxidizer velocity is artificially perturbed at a resonance frequency. At the mixing point of fuel and oxidizer, which determines the characteristic length, the relationship between velocity perturbation and heat release rate is quantified by combustion parameters of interaction index and time lag. As the improved method to apply the time-lag, the method using the average velocity obtained from numerical results is suggested.

We investigated the effects of oxidizer additive on the performance of Cu-CMP process using commonly used tungsten slurry. According to the CMP removal rates and particle size distribution, and the micro- structures of surface layer as a function of oxidizer contents were greatly influenced by the slurry chemical composition of oxidizers. The difference in removal rate and roughness of copper surface are believed to cause by modification in the mechanical behavior of $Al_{2}O_3$ abrasive particles in CMP slurry.

In general, burning time is not considered with a factor of an empirical relation on the combustion characteristic in hybrid propulsion system. So, The effect of burning time on hybrid combustion characteristics and propulsion characteristics was studied. As results, regression rate is decrease with burning time, but fuel mass flux is maintained nearly constant with burning time at given oxidizer mass flux.
