초록

이 연구에서는, 모델 가스 터빈 연소기에서 발생하는 저선회 인젝터와 강선회 인젝터의 열-음향불안정성을 비교하고 있다. 인젝터 형태에 다른 불안정한 거동의 비교를 위하여, 다양한 당량비와 연소실 길이의 광범위한 범위의 실험이 수행되었다. 실험 결과, 연소기에서 발생된 대부분의 불안정성은 종-방향 불안정성이라는 것이 확인되었다. 또한, 강선회 인젝터가 저선회 인젝터에 비하여 더 넓은 연소실 길이 영역에서 강한 연소 불안정성이 발생됨이 발견되었다. 저선회 인젝터의 막힘률은 전체적인 거동 측면에서 큰 의미를 보이지 않았다. 또한, 인젝터의 형태에 무관하게 연소실 길이가 동일한 경우에 연소 불안정성이 발생한 경우에는 불안정성의 특성이 유사함이 발견되었다.

In this study, the combustion instability characteristics of low-swirl injector and high-swirl injector is compared by model gas turbine combustor. To compare of unstable behavior in high-swirl injector and low-swirl injector, we performed lots of measurement of combustion instability, with variable of equivalence ratio, combustor length and injector type. The results shown that longitudinal instability occur dominantly in model gas turbine combustor. In addition, it was found that high-swirl injector has more wide range of unstable regime than low-swirl injector. The blockage ratio what one of a parameter in low-swirl injector has not much effected in aspects of overall combustor behavior. Also, revealed that combustion instability occurred in the same combustor length has same properties, regardless of the injector type.
