Abstract: A fluid level measurement system using a buoyant body includes a guide part installed in a direction perpendicular to the bottom surface of a fluid storage tank, and provided with a space in which a fluid can move therein; a buoyant body inserted into the guide part, and configured to float along the surface of the fluid inside the guide part; and a measurement part coupled to the top end of the guide part, and configured to measure the level of the surface of the fluid inside the fluid storage tank by transmitting a signal toward the buoyant body in the inner space of the guide part and then receiving a signal reflected from the buoyant body.

Abstract: A system for controlling flame instability. The system may include a nozzle coupled to a fuel supply line, an insulation housing coupled to the nozzle, a combustor coupled to the nozzle via the insulation housing, where the combustor is grounded, a pressure sensor coupled to the combustor and configured to detect pressure in the combustor, and an instability controlling assembly coupled to the pressure sensor and to an alternating current power supply. The instability controlling assembly can control flame instability of a flame in the system based on pressure detected by the pressure sensor by applying a voltage from the alternating current power supply to the system to create an electric field.

Abstract: An apparatus which can confine almost entire available energy in the vicinity of ignition point during a laser-induced ignition process is proposed. Multiple reflection by a cavity surface when a small diameter laser beam is directed into the cavity is utilized in laser ignition. Shadowgraphs of the early stages of the combustion process for quiescent methane/air mixtures show that a hot gas jet emerges from the cavity. During subsequent flame propagation, both similarities with and difference from conventional spark ignition processes are observed, depending on the cavity size and the concentration of mixtures. With laser cavity ignition, the chamber pressure increases relatively rapidly and higher maximum pressure can be achieved. As a result, the combustion duration for laser cavity ignition is decreased relative to laser-induced spark ignition.
