Spray characteristic parameters such as droplet mean velocity, diameter, and volume flux are measured at various locations of spray in order to investigate the evolutionary feature of droplets exiting from a direct-injection type thruster nozzle-orifice. The experimental results indicate that the large droplets with high velocity at the center of upstream are broken-up into smaller droplets with low velocity due to their continuous momentum loss to surrounding air along with spray evolution toward downstream. Also it is found that the high volume flux expands its distribution in radial direction as a results of spray spreading and dispersion.

Two-dimensional distribution characteristics on the spray droplets emanating from an injector employed in a liquid-propellant thruster are investigated through dual-mode phase Doppler anemometry (DPDA). Spray-breakup characteristic parameters such as spray droplet velocity, turbulent intensity, Sauter mean diameter (SMD), number density, and volumetric flux are quantified to scrutinize the macroscopic behavior of injector-spray breakup. The present study will be able to contribute to the comprehension for performance features of the thruster in current use and to the design engineering of a brand-new thruster as well.

Spray characteristics for the modulation with a pulsed spray in low-frequency region were investigted by performing with additional internal pulsed injection. The 1st perturbative flow was generated by rotating-type pulsed device and the 2nd pulse source generated by the magnetic valve was used to modulate the 1st flow. A pattern of the modulated spray was observed through FFT result and visualization. In case of modulated spray with the 2nd pulse control, the width of up and down motion of the modulated spray is smaller than that of the spray without the 2nd pulse. Also, the depth of penetration of the down stream is higher than that of spray without the 2nd pulse.

Spray characteristics of an injector in a small liquid rocket engine (LRE) is characterized by Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and Dual-mode Phase Doppler Anemometry (DPDA). Instantaneous plane images captured by PIV are examined for the qualitative prediction of spray breakup with the setup of evaluation technique for effect of spray angles on injector performance. DPDA is also applied in order to quantify the average velocity, turbulent intensity, SMD, and number density of spray droplets along the spray stream distance leading to precise observation of spray atomization behavior. An objective of the study is the derivation of design parameters of new injectors and the establishment of performance criteria through the clear understanding of spray characteristics.

환경문제를 야기하는 할론 소화설비의 사용이 금지되면서 대체소화설비로 관심을 끌며 연구되기 시작한 미세물분무 소화설비이다. 미세물분무는 고압에서 물을 방사하여 $Dv_{0.99}$가 1,000$\mu$m 미만의 물입자를 만들며 작은 물입자로 인해 표면적의 증가와 증발특성이 우수하고, 산소농도를 감소시키는 질식작용과 화염의 냉각작용에 의해 소화작용을 상승시킨다. 이러한 미세물분무의 소화작용에 대한 소규모 화재실험을 기반으로 유류화재의 진압$\cdot$소화특성에 대한 실용화를 위해 실제크기 화재실험을 하였다.(중략)

Spray characteristics of the APU gas turbine engine were investigated. In order to understand blow out phenomena of the APU engine, we performed fuel spray test. In the test, four operating conditions such as sea level idle, sea level max power, 20,000 feet idle, 20,000 feet max power were used as spray experimental conditions. PDPA(phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) was used for measuring the particle diameter and velocity. Also spray visualization was performed by using ND-YAG sheet laser beam. From the test result, in the case of 20,000 feet idle condition, SMD is about 100 ${\mu}m$ and maximum particle velocity is about 10 m/s. For the flame stability, spray quality should be improved at 20,000 feet idle condition.

The effect of two-phase spray injected into subsonic cross-flow was studied experimentally. External-mixing of two-phase spray from orifice nozzle with L/d of 3 was tested with various air-liquid ratio that ranges from 0 to 59.4%. Trajectory of spray and breakup phenomena were investigated by shadowgraph photography. Detailed spray structure was characterized in terms of SMD, droplet velocity, and volume flux using PDPA. Experimental results indicate that penetration length was increased and collision point of liquid jets approached to nozzle exit and distributions of mist-like spray were obtained by increasing air-liquid ratio.

The influences of recess length of a liquid/liquid swirl coaxial injector on spray characteristics were investigated. It was revealed that the internal impinging phenomenon played an important role in the spray characteristics, such as spray angle and breakup length. Also, as the recess length increased, the mean drop size increased due to the increase of effective film thickness and mixing efficiency increased, but in the case of very deep recess length, the mixing efficiency decreased.

It is essential to understand the spray characteristics of injectors for the development of liquid rocket engine systems. In this study, the image processing methods for the measurement of the spray characteristics such as spray angle, breakup length and drop size of Gas-Centered Swirl Coaxial(GCSC) injectors have been investigated. The charge-coupled device (CCD) camera with a stroboscope was used to capture the spray images. It is to be hoped that this methods could contribute to acquisition of reliable and worthwhile data for the design of injectors. Moreover, this image processing method will be verified by comparison with other experimental results.
