액체 연료 분포의 균일성과 대칭성은 연소 효율을 높이고, 공해 물질을 줄이는데 있어서 필수적인 요소이기 때문에 분무 패턴을 정량적으로 해석하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 고전적으로 사용되고 있는 mechanical patternator는 ⅰ) 유동을 교란시키고, ⅱ) 공간 분해능이 떨어지며, ⅲ) 복잡한 재순환 유동이나 화학 반응이 있는 유동에서의 적용이 어렵다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점들을 극복하기 위하여 레이저를 이용한 optical patternator에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. Optical patternator는 유동을 교란시키지 않으면서 고해상도의 분무 패턴 측정을 할 수 있다. 형광 신호는 물질의 체적에 비례한다. 따라서, 레이저 평면광을 분무에 조사시켜 주어서 유도되는 형광 신호를 이용하는 평면액체 레이저 유도 형광법(PLLIF : Planar Liquid Laser Induced Fluorescence)은 분무패턴을 알아보는 매우 유용한 방법이다.

Most researches for impinging jet spray have been focused on under-standing the breakup mechanism of a liquid sheet formed by the collision of jets and modeling the spray breakup using experimental data. For this reason, there have been few studies on the characteristics of the spatial spray distribution which affects significantly the combustion efficiency. Hence, we measured the radial distribution of fuel massflux using a like-doublet type injector. Instead of PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) which has been used only for the point measurement of the drop size of spray, PLIF(Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence) technique was developed lot the 2-D measurement of the massflux distribution of spray Indirect photography technique was also used to verify PLIF data.

A PLLIF (Planar Liquid Laser Induced Fluorescence) technique has been known to be a useful tool for the measurement of the spray patterns for various spray injectors because it can obtain two-dimensional images with high spatial resolutions without any intrusion on the spray field. In case of dense spray, however, the secondary emission as well as the extinction of an incident laser beam or a fluorescence signal can cause errors in quantifying a mass distribution. Unfortunately, a like-doublet injector which has a dense spray zone at the center may not be a good example or the application of the PLLIF technique. Therefore, we took PLLIF data for the like-doublet injector with a 12 bit color CCD camera by varying laser power, and then assessed their accuracy by comparing with the data obtained with a mechanical patternator and a PDPA (Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer). The experimental results showed that the gray level of fluorescence signal increases nonlinearly due to a secondary emission at the dense spray zone but this nonlinearity can be avoided by reducing the incident laser beam power. In addition, the mass flux distribution of the spray could be obtained by using the mass concentration data from PLLIF technique and the velocity profiles of liquid drops, and this distribution showed good agreement with that of mechanical pattemator. Therefore, it is possible that the PLLIF technique can be successfully applied to finding the mass distributions of like-doublet injectors.
