LES(Large eddy simulation) of breakup and atomization of a liquid jet into cross turbulent flow was performed. Two phase flow between a gas phase and a liquid phase was modeled by a mixed numerical scheme of both Eulerian and Lagrangian methods for gas and liquid phases respectively. The first and second breakup of liquid column was observed. The penetration depth in cross flow was comparable with experimental data for several variant of a liquid-gas momentum flux ratio by varying liquid injection velocities. SMD(Sauter Mean Diameter) distribution downstream of jet was analyzed.

LES(Large eddy simulation) of breakup and droplet atomization of a liquid jet into cross turbulent flow was performed. Two phase flow of gas and liquid phases were modeled by the mixed numerical scheme of both Eulerian and Lagrangian methods for gas and liquid droplet respectively. The breakup process of a liquid column and droplets was observed by implementing the blob-KH wave breakup model. The penetration depth into cross flow was comparable with experimental data for several variants of the liquid-gas momentum flux ratio by varying liquid injection velocity. SMD(Sauter Mean Diameter) distribution downstream of jet was analyzed.

기체, 액체 고체상(相)이 섞여서 함께 흐르는 유동을 다상유동(multiphase flow)이라고 하며, 그 중 2개의 상이 섞여서 흐르는 경우를 2상유동(two-phase flow)이라고 일컫는다. 다상유동의 현상은 일상적인 생활에서도 많이 접하며(예컨대, 눈, 비가 내리는 현상, 안개, 황사, 스모그 현상 등) 특히 열전달과 관련하여 비등 및 응축을 수반하기도 한다. 특히 기계공학적 시스템에의 응 용측면에서는 다상유동의 전문지식이 증발기, 응축기 등 각종 열교환기기의 설계에 적용되므로 본 해설에서는 기체-액체(gas-liquid) 2상유동으로 그 내용을 한정하기로 한다. 2상(two-phase) 유동은 동일한 화학적 성분을 가진 물질이 서로 다른 상을 유지하면서 공존하여 흐른다는 점에서 2개의 다른 화학성분으로 구성된 2성분(two-component) 유동(예컨대 공기-물의 혼합유동)과는 엄밀하게는 다르나, 두 유동은 제반 형상이 유사하고, 해석 및 실험방법면에서도 많은 유사성이 있어서 총괄적으로 두 유동을 모두 2상유동이라고 칭하고 있다(1). 본 해설에서는 이러한 기체 -액체 2상유동분야에서 다루는 연구내용을 개괄적으로 소개하고자 한다.

A three-dimensional two-phase large eddy simulation(LES) has been conducted to investigate the breakup and atomization of liquid jets such as a diesel jet in parallel flow and water jet in cross flow. Gas-liquid two-phase flow was solved by a combined model of Eulerian for gas flow and Lagrangian for a liquid jet. Two stochastic breakup models were implemented to simulate the liquid column and droplet breakup process. The penetration depth and SMD(Sauter Mean Diameter) were analyzed, which was comparable with the experimental data.

In most cryogenic liquid rocket engines, liquid oxygen manifold and injector are not thermally insulated from room temperature environment fur reducing system complexity and the weight. This feature of cryogenic liquid rocket engine results in the situation that cryogenic liquid oxygen flow is easy to be vaporized especially in the vicinity of the manifold and the injector wall. The research in this paper is focused on two-phase flow phenomena of liquid oxygen in rocket engine. Vapor fraction was estimated by comparing the measured two-phase flow pressure drop in engine manifold and the injector with ideal single phase pressure drop. Heat flux into cryogenic flow is estimated by measuring the wall temperature on the engine manifold to examine boiling characteristics. Suitable correlations for cryogenic two-phase flow were also reviewed to see their applicability. In addition, the effect of vapor generation in liquid rocket engine manifold and injector on engine performance and stability was considered.

The instability analysis of submerged gas flow into liquid is studied, which assumes gas and liquid as viscous and irrotational. At low mass flow rate of gas, injected gas plume is collection of bubbles, and increase of gas flow rate makes plume as a jet. It is well known that the transition from bubbling to jetting occurs in the transonic region. But previous works neglect viscous effect of gas flow into liquid. This paper concerns about an application of viscous potential flow theory in cylindrical gas flow into liquid. The growth rate versus wave number and mach number is compared with various condition including inviscid and viscous flow.

Gas-Liquid multiphase flow simulation has been carried out using the Lattice boltzmann method. For the interface treatment, pseudo-potential model (Shan-Chen) was used with the Carnahan-Starling equation of state. Exact Difference Method also applied for the treatment of the force term. Through the developed code, we simulated coexsitence structure of high and low density, phase separation, surface tension effect, characteristics of moving interface, homogeneous and heterogeneous cavitation and bubble collaps.

In case of liquid rocket using turbopump, the inner pressure of liquid oxygen tank is maintained low, so vaporization of LOX is generally occurred. This vaporization tendency increases as the inlet helium gas temperature is higher. For estimating the amount of helium in the rocket system, the LOX vaporization phenomena should be carefully considered. In this paper, Inner process of LOX tank is analyzed by two phase flow modeling. the vaporization rate and required Helium mass is investigated with varying inlet helium temperature and heat transfer coefficient.

A fundamental study on a gas injection variable thrust method for thrust throttling in a liquid rocket engine was conducted. The gas injection variable thrust has the advantage of not only being able to control the thrust with a simple structure but it also increases the atomization performance through the injection pressure drop that increases in direct proportion to the density reduction. In this study, spray characteristics such as spray instability, spray pattern, spray angle, and breakup length based on changes in the liquid mass flow rate and amount of injected gas were investigated using effervescent swirl injectors.

A two-phase Large Eddy Simulation(LES) has been conducted to investigate breakup and atomization of a liquid jet in a cross turbulent flow in a rectangular duct. Gas-droplet two-phase flow was solved by a coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian method which tracks every individual particles. Effects of liquid breakup models, sub-grid scale models, and a order of spatial discretization was investigated. The penetration depth in cross flow was comparable with experimental data by varying breakup model and LES scheme. SMD(Sauter Mean Diameter) distribution downstream of jet was analyzed.
