Numerical Simulation of Internal Flow in a Large-scale Pressure-swirl Atomizer
This work is a continuation of experimental and computational studies of the internal flow field of a large-scale Danfoss atomizer presented at an earlier ILASS conference [1,2]. Fluent 6.1 is used to simulate the flow through the large-scale atomizer. The two-phase flow is modeled using three approaches: 1) a volume of fluid (VOF) method using a laminar flow assumption, 2) a VOF method using l...
متن کاملNumerical Simulations of Isothermal Flow in a Swirl Burner
In this paper, the non-reacting flow in a swirl burner is studied using large eddy simulation. The configuration consists of two unconfined coannular jets at a Reynolds number of 81,500. The flow is characterized by a Swirl number of 0.93. Two cases are studied in the paper differing with respect to the axial location of the inner pilot jet. It was observed in a companion experiment (Bender and...
متن کاملStudy on Droplet Size and Velocity Distributions of a Pressure Swirl Atomizer Based on the Maximum Entropy Formalism
A predictive model for droplet size and velocity distributions of a pressure swirl atomizer has been proposed based on the maximum entropy formalism (MEF). The constraint conditions of the MEF model include the conservation laws of mass, momentum, and energy. The effects of liquid swirling strength, Weber number, gas-to-liquid axial velocity ratio and gas-to-liquid density ratio on the droplet ...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of the Role of the Inlet Swirl Velocity Profile on Decay of Swirl in Pipe Flow
The influence of the inlet swirl velocity profile shape on the decay of swirl in steady-state, incompressible, laminar pipe flows is investigated by means of computational fluid dynamics. The investigation is carried out for a Reynolds number of 2000, which marks the upper limit of the laminar flow behavior for unidirectional pipe flow. Computations are performed for two different mean swirl nu...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Turbulent Subsonic Compressible Flow through Rectangular Microchannel
In this study, turbulent compressible gas flow in a rectangular micro-channel is numerically investigated. The gas flow assumed to be in the subsonic regime up to Mach number about 0.7. Five low and high Reynolds number RANS turbulence models are used for modeling the turbulent flow. Two types of mesh are generated depending on the employed turbulence model. The computations are performed for R...
