1. A flame transfer function measurement system for prediction and reduction of combustion instability, comprising:
an accommodation part for accommodating a reactant;
a perturbation part that is connected with the accommodation part, and that generates an acoustic perturbation of a preset frequency to the reactant supplied from the accommodation part;
a pipe part that is connected with the perturbation part;
a combustion part that is connected to the pipe part, and where the reactant supplied from the pipe part is burned to generate flame;
a velocity perturbation measurement part that is installed in the pipe part, and that measures a velocity perturbation of the reactant to generate velocity perturbation information;
a self-luminescence measurement part that is disposed at an outer side of the combustion part, and that measures a radical self-luminescence signal discharged from the flame and generates radical self-luminescence information; and
a calculation part that is electrically connected with the perturbation part, the velocity perturbation measurement part and the self-luminescence measurement part, and that calculates heat release rate perturbation information of the flame based on the radical self-luminescence information, and calculates a flame transfer function based on the velocity perturbation information and the heat release rate perturbation information,
wherein the calculation part calculates a phase of the flame transfer function at each frequency from the heat release rate perturbation information and the velocity perturbation information, and the calculation part automatically corrects the phase of the flame transfer function at each frequency,
wherein the perturbation part comprises an electric part, a rotor that may be fastened to the electric part and be rotated, a first disk that may be fastened to the rotor and be rotated, and that has a plurality of first holes through which the reactant may pass, and a second disk that may be fixed to the first disk so as to contact one surface of the first disk and be rotated together, and that overlaps with the first hole and has a plurality of second holes through which the reactant may pass.
