An experimental study of the flame response in a turbulent premixed combustor has been conducted with room temperature, atmospheric pressure inlet conditions using premixed natural gas. The fuel is premixed with the air upstream of a choked inlet to avoid equivalence ratio fluctuations. Therefore the observed flame response is only the result of the imposed velocity fluctuations, which are produced using a variable speed siren. Measurements are made of the velocity fluctuation in the nozzle using hot wire anemometry and of the heat release fluctuation in the combustor using chemiluminescence emission. The results are analyzed to determine the phase and gain of the flame transfer function as a function of the modulation frequency. Of particular interest is the effect of flame structure on the flame response predictions and measurements. The results show that both the gain and the phase of flame transfer function are closely associated with the flame length and structure, which is dependent upon the upstream flow perturbation as well as equivalence ratio in the current study.

An experimental study on flame lift-off characteristics of propane jet flame highly diluted with nitrogen has been conducted introducing acoustic forcing with a tube resonant frequency. A flame stability curve is attained according to forcing strength and nozzle exit velocity for $N_2$ diluted flames. Flame lift-off behavior with forcing strength and nozzle exit velocity is globally categorized into three; a well premixed behavior caused by a collapsible mixing for large forcing strength, a coexistent behavior of well-premixed and edge flames interacting with well-organized inner fuel vortices for moderate forcing strengths, and edge flame behavior for small forcing strengths. Special focus is concentrated on the coexistent behavior of the flame base in lifted flame since this may give a hint to a possibility which the flame base behaves like a well-mixed premixed flame in highly turbulent lifted flames. It is also shown that the acoustic forcing to self-pulsating laminar lifted flame affects flame lift-off behavior considerably which is closely related to downstream flow velocity, mixture strength, effective fuel Lewis number, and flame stretch.

희석된 동축공기 수소 난류확산화염에서 연료의 구성이 화염 길이에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 화염의 길이는 동축공기와 연료 제트의 속도비의 함수로 표현하였고, 이론적 예측과 비교하였다. 네 조건의 연료 구성에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 동축공기 제트 화염의 길이 예측을 위해 near-field concept에서의 유효 직경을 이용한 스케일링 관계식을 유도하였다. 실험 결과 가시 화염의 길이는 이론적 예측과 크게 일치하였다. 여러 연료 조건에서의 희석된 수소 제트의 화염에서도 스케일링 분석은 유효하였다.

This study has numerically investigated the flame-acoustics interactions in the turbulent partially premixed flame field. In the present approach, in order to analyze the combustion instability, the present approach has employed the LES-based combustion model as well as the Helmholtz solver. Computations are made for the validation case of the partially premixed LIMOUSINE burner. In terms of the FFT data, numerical results are compared with experimental data. Moreover, Helmholtz equation in frequency domain is solved by combining CFD field data including the flight time from a nozzle to the flame zone. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussions are made for the essential features of the combustion instability encountered in the partially premixed burner.

In this paper, a new 'presumed' Probability Density Function (PDF) approach coupled with a Lagrangian tracking method is proposed for turbulent combustion modeling. The test and the investigation of the model are conducted by comparing the model results with DNS data for a premixed flame subjected in a decaying turbulent field. The newly constructed PDF, which incorporates the instantaneous chemical reaction term, demonstrates consistent improvement over conventional assumed PDF models. It has been found that the time evolution of the mean scalar, the variance and the mean reaction rate are strongly influenced by a parameter deduced by a Lagrangian equation which takes into account explicitly the local reaction rate. Tests have been performed for a moderate Damkohler number, and it is expected the model may cover a broader range of Damkohler number. The comparison with the DNS data demonstrates that the proposed model may be promising and affordable for implementation in a moment-equation solver.

Simultaneous measurements of planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) of OH radicals and particle image velocimetry (PIV) were used to investigate the strain rates and OH structure characteristics of turbulent syngas non-premixed jet flames close to blowoff. Mean values of the maximum principal strain rate on OH layer decreases with the axial distance, and its standard deviation is significantly large upstream. Strain rate on stabilization region of the stable flame is only about a half of that of the flame near blowoff.

본 논문에서는 메탈화이버를 이용한 난류예혼합 플랫버너를 제작하여 다양한 연소조건하에서 화염의 안정화범위를 확인하였으며, 연료유량과 공기유량의 변화에 따른 균일가열 능력과 배기가스 특성에 관한 실험을 실시하였다. 그리고 화염의 안정성 평가를 위한 실험을 통해 화염을 공기유량 변화에 따라 청녹염, 복사염, 청염 영역으로 나눌 수 있었고, 이들 영역은 청염>복사염>청녹염 영역 순으로 연소상태가 양호하였다. 공기비에 따른 영향을 살펴보면, 본 실험에서는 연료유량 1과 4l/min에서는 공기비 ${\alpha}=1.5$가 적합하였으며 연료유량 2l/min에서는 ${\alpha}=2.0$이 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 한편 연료유량과 관계없이 공기비 ${\alpha}=1.3{\sim}2.1$범위에서는 연소소음이 발생했다.

The Purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between the local heat release rate and CH concentration have been investigated by numerical simulations of methane-air premixed flames. And simultaneous CH and OH PLIF(Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence) measurement has been also conducted for lean premixed flame as well as for laminar flames. Numerical simulations are conducted for laminar premixed flames and turbulent ones by using PREMIX in CHEMKIN and two dimensional DNS code with GRI mechanism version 2.11, respectively. In the case of laminar premixed flame, the distance between the peak of heat release rate and that of CH concentration is under $91{\mu}m$ for all equivalence ratio calculated in present work. Even for the premixed flame in high intensity turbulence, the distribution of the heat release rate coincides with that of CH mole fraction. For CH PLIF measurements in the laminar premixed flame burner, CH fluorescence intensity as a function of equivalence ratio shows a similar trend with CH mole fraction computed by GRI mechanism. Simultaneous CH and OH PLIF measurement gave us useful information of instantaneous reaction zone. In addition, CH fluorescence can be measured even for lean conditions where CH mole fraction significantly decreases compared with that of stoichiometric condition. It was found that CH PLIF measurements can be applicable to the estimation of the spatial fluctuations of heat release rate in the engine combustion.

A method is developed to include the effect of volume expansion in the description of the flame dynamics using G-equation. Line volume-source is used to represent the effect of the exothermic process of combustion with source strength assigned by the density difference between the burned and the unburned region. The present model provides good agreement with the experimental results. Including volume expansion, the flow field is adjusted to accommodate the increased volume flow rate which crossing the flame front and the result predicts the same behavior of measured velocity field qualitatively. The effect of increasing volume expansion does not change the initial growth rate of flame area but increase the residence time. Consequently this effect increases the maximum area of flame front. The flame propagation in varying flow field due to volume expansion provides a promising way to represent the wrinkled turbulent premixed flames in a numerically efficient manner.

질소 희석 가스가 수소화염의 화염안정성에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 연구하였다. 연료는 수소이며 수소화염을 부상시키기 위하여 동축공기를 사용하였다. 이때 수소의 속도는 200 m/s이고 동축공기의 속도는 16 m/s로 고정하였다. 질소 희석 가스는 연료 공급라인에 주입되었으며 전체 연료 부피의 0$\sim$20%까지 주입하였다. 화염구조분석을 위하여 PIV/OH PLIF 동시측정 기법을 사용하였다. 수소 난류 확산화염 화염안정성 실험을 통하여 질소 가스 주입에 따라 부상화염 높이는 증가하였으며, 난류 화염 전파속도는 감소하였다. 그리고 난류 화염전파속도는 난류강도의 함수로 표현될 수 있었다.
