Abstract

Cryogenic spray characteristics of a nitrogen swirl injector operating in supercritical environment have been numerically investigated. By comparing the equation of states(EOS) used for supercritical condition, SRK EOS was applied to predict the nitrogen thermodynamic property under supercritical environment. A Chung's method was implemented for the calculation of viscosity and conductivity and Takahashi's correlation based on Fuller's Theorem was implemented for the calculation of diffusion coefficient. By injecting the nitrogen with 5 bar differential pressure into 50 bar chamber filled with nitrogen, numerical simulation has been conducted. The dynamic Smagorinsky sub-grid scale (SGS) model has been compared with the algebraic Smagorinsky SGS model using FFT frequency analysis. The instability at the liquid film and gas core inside injector and the propagation of pressure oscillation into the injector has been investigated. The spreading angle of swirl injector obtained by numerical calculation has been validated with experimental result.

초임계 환경에서 작동하는 와류형 분사기의 극저온 질소 분무특성을 3차원 LES 수치기법을 적용하여 연구하였다. 초임계 상태에서 질소의 상태량을 예측하기 위해 초임계 상태에서 적용되는 상태방정식들을 비교하여 가장 정확한 SRK 상태방정식을 적용하였다. 또한 점성계수와 열 전도도는 Chung이 제안한 고압상태 혼합물에 대한 방정식을 적용하였으며 확산계수는 Fuller의 이론에 Takahashi가 제안한 방정식을 적용하였다. 질소로 채워진 50bar의 챔버에 5bar의 차압으로 질소를 분무하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. FFT를 이용한 주파수 분석을 통해 대수적 Smagorinsky와 동적 Smagorinsky를 실험결과와 비교하여 동적모델이 더 적합함을 판단하였다. 분사기 내부의 액막, 가스층에서 나타나는 불안정성과 분사기 외부에서 나타나는 불안정성의 원인에 대해 분석하고, 불안정성이 분사기 내부로 전파되는 현상에 대해 조사하였다. 또한 분무각에 대하여 실험 결과와 비교 검증하였다.
