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.

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.

Spray characteristics of an injector employed in liquid rocket engine is investigated by Particle Image Velocimetry and Dual-mode Phase Doppler Anemometry measurements. Instantaneous plane images captured by PIV technique are examined in order to judge a pass-fail criteria of spray injection performance. DPDA technique is also applied in order to measure the velocity and diameter of spray droplets. The eternal objective of this study is to evaluate an injector performance which may be utilized for the design of brand-new ones through the clear understanding of spray characteristics.

In electrospraying of polymer solutions, metal sample collectors are often ineffective in fully removing solvent from sprayed particles and recovering redispersable sprayed particles. Herein, a novel electro spraying system, where sprayed particles were dispersed into laminar flow of dispersant (coagulation liquid), was designed for the nano-encapsulation of protein drugs. Chitosan and polyacrylic acid were used as the encapsulation materials. Aggregation of particles could be prevented by using this new electrospraying system, and unimodal size distribution was observed at an applied voltage between 4~16 kV and a low flow rate. The effects of the applied voltage on mean particle size were not significant on the other hand.

동축형 인젝터는 이미 여러 발사체에서 널리 쓰이고 있는 인젝터의 한 형태로서 또 다른 인젝터 방식인 충돌형과 비교하여 구조가 복잡한 단점이 있는 반면에 연소 현상의 불안정성에 대해 덜 민감하며 미립화와 혼합의 특성도 우수하다. 이런 동축형 인젝터는 크게 스월 방식과 shear 방식으로 나누어진다. 이중에서 스월 인젝터는 산화제와 연료의 유입구에 접선 방향의 속도를 줌으로써 conical sheet 형태의 분무장을 형성하여 미립화와 혼합을 꾀하는 방식이다. 이와 같은 스월 인젝터에서 중요한 변수 중에 하나인 recess의 변화에 대해 분무 형상과 미립화 혼합특성까지 파악해보았다.

The effect of operating condition was studied experimently on the characteristics of twin sprays ejected from two airblast atomizers, within the range of the mass air-fuel ratio 1.36∼3.54. Water and nitrogen gas were used as test fluids for the experiments. Spray characteristics of liquid spray were measured with measurement of mass distribution and instantaneous image of the spray cone. Experimental results show that the maximum specify of the distribution were lowered but distributed over the larger area when the ROA ratio increased, Center of mass position did not change with increasing water mass flow, Increase of the nozzle distance has an small effect on mass distribution of interaction area but distributed over the larger area. It was also conformed that the effect of interaction near central point of collision decreased with the increase of the ROA ratio on interaction area from comparison using superposition method

In this paper, numerical experiment is attempted to analyze and compare the combustion efficiency of the burning sprays due to OFO, FOF triplet / FOOF split doublet injectors. Preconditioned Wavier-Stokes equation system with low Reynolds number $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ model for turbulence closure, is LU-SGS time-integrated. Spray processes are modeled by DSF analysis with experimentally determined injection characteristics. n-heptane/air global reaction model approximates the combustion for simplicity, and the influence of turbulence on the chemical reaction is included using eddy dissipation model. The results showed the FOF triplet injector of highest combustion efficiency, whereas the OFO type of poet performance. It was also observed that the droplet mean diameter and the average gas temperature due to the mixing efficiency, are the representative parameters for the performance design of combustion.

국내에 보급된 방제기는 인력분무기, 동력 분무기, 동력 살분무기, 스피드 스프레이어, 붐방제기 등이 있다. 그 중 동력경운기에 탑재하거나 트랙터에 견인되는 동력분무기를 주축으로 기계화되어 있다. 작은 입경의 분무입자로서 가급적 적정량을 균일하게 뿌릴 때 방제효율을 높일 수 있는데도 불구하고, 동력분무기에 의한 액제 살포는 원거리 살포에 따라 분무입자의 입경 분포가 다양하며 대부분 분무입자가 매우 크므로 고른 살포를 기대하기 어렵기 때문에 약액을 1000대 1로 희석하여 흠뻑 적실 정도로 다량 살포를 하여 살포효율을 높이고 있다. 그러나 이러한 방제 방법은 효율성, 작업능률과 환경의 오염 측면에서 상당한 문제로 지적되고 있다.

In this paper an experimental study of a spray created by two impinging jets is presented utilizing a novel two-reference-beam double-pulse holographic technique. Visualization of the overall spray pattern as well as measurements on the size and velocity of the droplets were performed with the special emphasis on the effect of physical properties of liquids. The overall spray pattern clearly revealed the inherent wave nature In the disintegration process of this type of atomization. The structure of liquid elements near the impingement point is indicative of the mechanisms of the disintegration process. Surface tension plays an important role in the droplet size without any noticeable effect on the spray pattern, whereas viscosity affects the structure without any significant effect on the droplet sire. The droplet velocities were not affected by liquid properties.
