Research Interests

​My current research interests deal with high pressure combustion with supercritical carbon dioxide dilution. My interest also contains flame dynamic characteristic with external excitation, such as flame transfer function and flame describing function in diffusion jet flame and swirl flame. Relation between flame dynamics and thermos-acoustic instability is also included. In addition, laser diagnostics such as planar laser induced fluorescence(PLIF) and particle image velocimetry(PIV) are involved to describe flame characteristics.
