Spray drift of agricultural nozzles has become a big issue because it causes low precision targeting and environmental pollution. In order to reduce the spray drift, study spray characteristics of agricultural nozzles is virtually important. In this study, shadowgraph and Mie-scattering visualization techniques were used to study the macroscopic spray and atomization characteristics of an agricultural nozzle. PDPA was used to measure the atomization characteristics of spray. The injection pressure is set to 1 bar, 3 bar and 5 bar, which covers the working range of the nozzle. For the PDPA experiment, 75 points were measured in an area of 160 mm × 120 mm at 10 mm intervals directly below the nozzle to grasp the overall atomization characteristics of the spray. It was found that the spray width and sheet width showed a linear correlation. As the injection pressure increased, the sheet expansion in the 0-degree direction and the sheet swing in the 90-degree direction jointly promoted the breakup of the sheet. In addition, the area close to the central axis had a large droplet velocity, and since a large droplet velocity promoted atomization of spray, the area close to the central axis had a smaller spray droplet diameter than the left and right regions.

초임계 연소에 대한 기초연구로써 축소형 액체 로켓 엔진에서 기체산소/케로신, 기체아산화질소/에탄올 추진제 조합의 정상상태 연소의 분무를 관찰하고 비교하였다. 분무의 가시화에는 shadowgraph 기법을 사용하였으며 실험결과를 분석하기 위해 shadowgraph를 후처리하여 밀도구배강도 이미지를 사용하였다. 정상상태 연소압력이 동일한 조건에서 기체산소/케로신 추진제의 액체 제트 표면의 굴곡이 심하고 분사기 팁 근처에서 급격한 밀도구배를 보이는 것이 관찰되었다. 밀도구배강도의 평균 이미지에서 분무 중심 길이를 도출하였으며 더 낮은 운동량 플럭스 비 조건에서도 기체산소/케로신의 분무중심 길이가 더 짧은 것으로 나타났다.
