A new measuring method is proposed, which measures the atomization characteristics of a non-evaporating, axi-symmetric diesel spray by means of an image analysis of high speed shadow photographs. The instantaneous sauter mean diameter and the fuel concentration in the spray are calculated of the splay axis and in the radial direction and the data of the fuel injection rate, using an onion peeling model. Some examples of application of this method to eight different diesel sprays are demonstrated, and the results are compared to predicted results by the conventional immersion method and a quasi-steady one dimensional spray model.

In order to develop the efficient control algorithm of the two-fluid fogging system, cooling experiments for the many different types of fogging cycles were conducted in tomato greenhouses. It showed that the cooling effect was 1.2 to $4.0^{\circ}C$ and the cooling efficiency was 8.2 to 32.9% on average. The cooling efficiency with fogging interval was highest in the case of the fogging cycle of 90 seconds. The cooling efficiency showed a tendency to increase as the fogging time increased and the stopping time decreased. As the spray rate of fog in the two-fluid fogging system increased, there was a tendency for the cooling efficiency to improve. However, as the inside air approaches its saturation level, even though the spray rate of fog increases, it does not lead to further evaporation. Thus, it can be inferred that increasing the spray rate of fog before the inside air reaches the saturation level could make higher the cooling efficiency. As cooling efficiency increases, the saturation deficit of inside air decreased and the difference between absolute humidity of inside and outside air increased. The more fog evaporated, the difference between absolute humidity of inside and outside air tended to increase and as the result, the discharge of vapor due to ventilation occurs more easily, which again lead to an increase in the evaporation rate and ultimately increase in the cooling efficiency. Regression analysis result on the saturation deficit of inside air showed that the fogging time needed to change of saturation deficit of $10g{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ was 120 seconds and stopping time was 60 seconds. But in order to decrease the amplitude of temperature and to increase the cooling efficiency, the fluctuation range of saturation deficit was set to $5g{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ and we decided that the fogging-stopping time of 60-30 seconds was more appropriate. Control types of two-fluid fogging systems were classified as computer control or simple control, and their control algorithms were derived. We recommend that if the two-fluid fogging system is controlled by manipulating only the set point of temperature, humidity, and on-off time, it would be best to set up the on-off time at 60-30 seconds in time control, the lower limit of air temperature at 30 to $32^{\circ}C$ and the upper limit of relative humidity at 85 to 90%.

The numerical simulations on 500-N class rocket engine using 96% hydrogen peroxide and kerosene have been conducted, considering atomization, evaporation, mixing and combustion of its propellants. The grid containing 1/6 part of combustion chamber has been generated and it is assumed that 3 kinds of liquid-phase propellants (kerosene, hydrogen peroxide and water) were injected as hollow cone spray pattern, using Rosin-Rammler function for distribution of droplet diameter. For the calculation of combustion the eddy-dissipation model was applied. Owing to small size of combustion chamber and large specific heat / latent heat of hydrogen peroxide and water the propulsion characteristics were highly influenced by the size of droplet particles, and in this analysis the engine with droplet particles of 30 micron in average has shown the best propulsion performance.

This study was conducted to assess the spray control of flash boiling with mixed fuel in consideration of HCCI (Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition) engine condition. Mixed fuel existing in two phase regions can control the process of mixture formation under low temperature and density by using the spray resulting from flash boiling which is able to induce rapid evaporation of fuel spray as well as the evaporation of high boiling point component. Because HCCI engine injects the fuel early under ambient conditions, it can facilitate the chemical control of ignition combustion and physical control such as breakup and atomization of liquid fuel by flash boiling of mixed fuel which consists of highly ignitable light oil and highly volatile gasoline. This study was conducted by performing video processing after selected composition and molar fraction of the mixed fuel as major parameters and photographed Schlieren image and Mie scattered light corresponding to the flash boiling phenomenon of the fuel spray that was injected inside a constant volume vessel. It was found that flash boiling causes significant changes in the spray structure under relatively low temperature and density. Thus, we analyzed that the flash boiling spray can be used for HCCI combustion by controlling the mixture formation at the early fuel injection timing.

Jet-A spray and combustion were numerically analyzed in annular type combustor model using KIVA3V. The combustor geometry have 6 dilute holes. Swirl effect and thermal NO were considered in this investigation to analyze mixing and combustion characteristics. Fuel vapor, flame temperature, NO generation were investigated for various spray angle. As increase of spray angle, Jet-A vapor appeared uniformly in primary zone and evaporation rate was increased. Mixing between fuel vapor and ambient gas was enhanced as increase of spray angle. As a result, high temperature region appeared widely and thermal NO generation rate was increased.

Spray pyrosysis is a process to prepare particles and films by evaporating and decomposing droplets of precursor solutions in the order of 1-10 micrometer in diameter. Key elements of the spray pyrolysis process include precursor, solvent, droplet generator, and reactor. Various combination of these 4 elements produces wide range of particles and films. In general. the current status of the spray pyrolysis technology is not quite promising for commercial success. However, this process will be feasible to produce multicomponent functional materials of controlled morphology. In this paper, current status of the spray pyrolysis technology is introduced with the emphasis of production of fluorescence particles.

The cooling of hot exhaust gas is an important issue for the construction of combustor test facility. Water spray is an effective method for exhaust gas cooling due to its large latent heat in process of evaporation. In this study, 1-D analysis has been performed based on continuity, energy conservation, and saturated vapor property to understand water spray cooling of combustion gas. In the exhaust duct of combustor test facility, the injected water decreases combustion gas temperature, and evaporates in the combustion gas. However, some of the injected water is collected in the sump due to condensation. The evaporation of water helps combustion gas cooling, but causes pressure increase inside the exhaust duct due to increase of vapor pressure. These phenomena has been analyzed by 1-D modeling in this study. From 1-D analysis, the adequate mass flow rate of water spray to cool combustion gas and to avoid excessive pressure rise inside the exhaust duct has been decided.
