In this study, a computational simulation of the internal flow characteristics was carried out for a Urea-SCR Injector. A single hole swirl injector with a swirl disk and slanted nozzle was used in this simulation. The maximum needle lift and opening velocity were selected as the design parameters. To analyze the unsteady internal flow characteristics of the Urea-SCR injector, the moving grid technique was applied to simulate the delicate needle movement. According to the simulation results, the injected mass flow rate from the Urea-SCR injector decreased with increasing needle opening velocity and maximum needle lift. This is because the Urea-solution tends to fill the empty space that the needle previously occupied. The swirl flow is decreased as the flow goes through the injector nozzle, because of the friction with the nozzle wall. Also, during the maximum needle lift period, the swirl coefficient and mean swirl coefficient increase with increasing needle lift. The results of this study may be used as the basic design data of related injectors.

"Backhole" is a new geometric parameter and is defined as an extra empty volume which is located behind the tangential entries at the rear part of the vortex chamber in the swirl injector. Backhole makes a difference to the spray characteristics of swirl injectors such as the spray angle, SMD, the mixing characteristics and so on. To find its characteristics, experiments are conducted by using a stroboscopic photography, a PDPA apparatus and a mechanical patternator. With the backhole, the mass flow rate of the swirl injector is increased and the center region of the injected flow has more large volume than that of without the backhole. Also the cone angle can be controlled by the backhole, so that the mixing efficiencies of swirl injectors are changed. Based on cold-flow tests, the swirl injector with the backhole may improve its performance.rformance.

This study was carried out to analyze the spray characteristics as a function of the operating parameters of urea injector used in Urea-SCR system of passenger diesel vehicle. Spray visualization and PDPA experiment were performed to analyze the macroscopic spray development and atomization performance of urea-water-solution. For the urea injector, the deformation of the spray head does not appear to be significant because it operates at a low pressure conditions, and the liquid core and primary droplet are observed throughout the operating conditions. No increase in atomization is seen when the operating pressure is increased, and the spray develops linearly due to poor atomization characteristics. The macroscopic spray behavior of the low-pressure urea injector is predictable through the modification of the Hiroyasu equation.

A fully nonlinear model accounting for swirling effect has been applied in analyzing the dynamic response for a classical swirl injector. The current work applied highly accurate Boundary Element Methods (BEMs) in assessing its static and dynamic characteristics. On the basis of moving surface treatment method and surface instability study, which are obtained from the previous static characteristics analysis in pressure-swirl injectors, this work was expanded for analyzing the dynamics of a classical swirl injector. The dynamic response through injector components for disturbed inflow condition was investigated. The modified code was validated from comparison with the theoretical result for a typical swirl injector. Clearly the simulated result shows the interesting characteristics of swirl injectors to provide either amplification or damping of the input disturbance through each component. These results give promise in applying the current model to nonlinear dynamic characteristics of swirl injectors.

This study is to increase the utilization of the ozonated water generator to make it easier to take advantage of the ozone water in the world today, there will be to develop a system that operates in one motion. Furthermore, olive oil and ozone is reacted with the wish to apply to the manufacturing technology. In the case of many existing products ozone generator driven mostly non-ozone system. In the case of ozone, but handwriting is implied general way pressure ozone gas leakage risks of suction force to the pump, it is the case of the challenge by using the injector, and limit the generation of ozone and ozone inhalation according to whether the water inlet leakage of existing products risk due to minimized. Despite the disadvantages of the injector system was found the effectiveness of the ozonated water production unit injector system used in this study to maintain the microbiological disinfection performance.

액체로켓에 대한 연구에서 가장 중요한 분야 중의 하나는 인젝터에 관한 것이다. 인젝터는 적정량의 산화제와 연료를 미립화 및 혼합시켜 연소실로 공급하는 것으로서, 액체로켓의 안정적 연소와 성능에 많은 영향을 미치는 요소이다. 기존의 F-O-F형 injector의 경우 산화제 오리피스가 연료쪽에 비해 면적이 크기 때문에 미립화 및 혼합이 좋지 못하다. 본 연구에 사용된 injector는 F-O-F형 injector의 산화제 오리피스 면적과 동일하게 두 개의 오리피스로 만들어 줌으로써 연료 오리피스와의 면적비를 적정수준으로 유지할 수 있다. 이는 동일한 조건하에서 Doublet injector나 Triplet injector의 경우 커지는 산화제의 오리피스를 제한시켜 주는 장점이 된다. 결과적으로 이러한 장점은 기존의 Doublet injector나 Triplet injector보다 높은 연소효율을 보이게 된다.

In this study, the spray atomization characteristics of urea injector used in SCR system for construction machinery was analyzed, and the uniformity index at the front of mixer and NOx conversion efficiency were evaluated through numerical analysis. Spray visualization and droplet size/velocity measurement were performed and the measured results were used to verify the spray analysis model to calculate the uniformity index in the exhaust gas after-treatment system. For the flow analysis, STAR-CCM, a three-dimensional CFD, was used and the uniformity index of the SCR system at the front of the mixer was calculated using the droplet dissociation model and the wall collision model. Finally, the DeNOx performance for the average condition of the NRTC driving mode was calculated to understand the NOx conversion efficiency reflecting the exhaust gas temperature. The simulation results show that the uniformity index at the front of mixer was calculated as 0.862 and DeNOx efficiency was 75.9%.

A urea-SCR system suffers from some issues associated with the ammonia slip phenomenon, which mainly occurs because of the shortage of evaporation and thermolysis time, and this makes it difficult to achieve an uniform distribution of injected urea. A numerical study was therefore performed by changing such various parameters as installed injector angle and application and angle of mixer to enhance evaporation and the mixing of urea water solution with exhaust gases. As a result, various parameters were found to affect the evaporation and mixing characteristics between exhaust gas and urea water solution, and their optimization is required. Finally, useful guidelines were suggested to achieve the optimum design of a urea-SCR injection system for improving the DeNOx performance and reducing ammonia slip.
