In this study used Computational Fluid Dynamic analysis to examine NOx reduction in hydrogen combustion, analyzing six conditions with varying air/fuel ratios, temperatures, and concentrations. Results were compared between two combustor shapes and previous experimental data. Findings showed increased air/fuel ratios decreased flame temperature and increased post-combustion O2. NOx emissions peaked at high temperatures and low O2. Numerical results aligned with previous experimental trends, validating the approach. Combustor shape differences, reflecting variations in fuel and air pipes, significantly affected flow rates and combustion positions. This reduced NOx emissions up to a certain air/fuel ratio, but excessive increases diminished this effect. The study highlights the complex relationship between combustor design, operating conditions, and NOx emissions. Further research is needed to optimize NOx reduction by considering pipe numbers and combustion locations. Future studies should explore various combustor geometries, fine-tune air/fuel ratios, and investigate additional parameters influencing NOx formation and reduction in hydrogen combustion systems.
In this paper, numerical investigation of transition characteristics in a square-sectional curved duct flow. Computational fluid dynamic(CFD) simulation was performed using the commercial CFD code FLUENT to investigate the transition characteristics. The flow development is found to depend upon Dean number and curvature ratio. The velocity profiles in center of the duct have lower value than those of the inner and outer walls.
전산유동 수치모형을 이용하여 다양한 대기안정도 상태하에서 부산광역시내 승학산과 구덕산의 초고해상도 풍력자원을 평가하였다. 연구에 사용된 수치모형은 중규모와 미규모 기상현상의 재현에 널리 사용되는 전산유동 수치모형인 A2C이다. 대기안정도가 강할 때, 위치에너지의 크기가 상대적으로 강해지기 때문에 산을 넘어가는 경향이 나타난다. 반면 대기안정도가 약해지면서 산악후면의 후류 발생이 증대되며, 난류에너지가 증가한다. 그리고 연평균 풍력밀도, 난류운동에너지, 연직 바람전단력 분석을 통하여 구덕산 정상의 남쪽 부근이 다른 구역보다 가용 풍력자원이 풍부함을 확인하였다.
This study forecasts changes in thermal environment and microclimate change per new building construction and assignment of green space in urban area using Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) simulation. The analysis studies temperature, humidity and wind speed changes in 4 different given conditions that each reflects; 1) new building construction; 2) no new building construction; 3) green spaces; and 4) no green spaces. Daily average wind speed change is studied to be; Case 2(2.3 m/s) > Case 3. The result of daily average temperate change are; Case 3(26.5℃) > Case 4(24. 6℃) > Case 2(23.9℃). This result depicts average of 2.5℃ temperature rise post new building construction, and decrease of approximately 1.8℃ when green space is provided. Daily average absolute humidity change is analysed to be; Case 3(15.8 g/kg') > Case 4(14.1 g/kg') > Case 2(13.5 g/kg'). This also reveals that when no green spaces is provided, 2.3 g/kg' of humidity change occurs, and when green space is provided, 0.6 g/kg change occurnd 4(1.8 m/s), which leads to a conclusion that daily average wind velocity is reduced by 0.5 m/s per new building construction in a building complex.
