Mass Flux Distribution of Spray Formed by Liquid Jet Disintegration in Subsonic Air Streams.

Response of Spray Formed by Liquid Jet Injected into Oscillating Air Crossflow

Experimental results on the characteristics of near-field (up to x/D=8) spray formed by a liquid jet injected into an oscillating air crossflow are presented. The modulation frequency is varied from 90 Hz to 450 Hz and the crossflow velocity (25-100 m/sec) and ambient pressure (2-3 atm) are systematically changed to investigate the spray response to modulated crossflow velocity over a range of ...

Spray Characteristics of a Liquid-Liquid Coaxial Swirl Atomizer at Different Mass Flux Ratios

An experimental investigation is performed to explore the characteristics of sprays produced by a liquid-liquid coaxial swirl injector in a non-combusting environment. Phase Doppler anemometry is used for the measurement of velocity and Sauter mean diameter of droplets across and along the injection axis for various innerand outer mass flow rates. Results of the combined spray are compared with...

Analysis of Disintegration of Planar Liquid Sheet Sandwiched between Gas Streams with Unequal Velocities and Resulting Spray Formation

A temporal stability analysis was carried out for a planar liquid sheet sandwiched between two gas streams moving with unequal velocities. Perturbation analysis was carried out up to second order using the initial amplitude of disturbance of the liquid sheet as the perturbation parameter. Both para-sinuous and para-varicose modes were investigated to determine the dominant break-up mechanism. T...
