In the present, The theoretical and numerical results of gas flow characteristics inside a swirl injector are presented. For this purpose a one-dimensional (theoretical) model and 2D/3D CFD models are proposed for use in the design of the injector. It was found that contradictory to the classical theory about the compressible flow, the swirl has a significant effect on the mass flow rate and the choking conditions. It was found that the one-dimensional model provides reasonably accurate results compared with the 2D/3D numerical results, and thus can be used at the initial stage of the swirl-injector design process.

In this paper, a study of Urea-SCR System for Dosing Injector for responding to enhanced environmental regulations has been conducted. There is a limit to the experimental approach due to the structural characteristics of the injector. In order to overcome this problem, The analysis was performed assuming unsteady turbulent flow through computational fluid analysis and the internal flow characteristics of the injector were analyzed. By changing the nozzle shape of the injector, the performance factors of the swirl injector by shape were selected and compared. The design parameters were modified by changing the diameter of the nozzle at a constant ratio compared to the base model. Swirl coefficient, outlet mass flow, and sac volume were selected as performance parameters of the injector. The Conv. model to which the taper was applied showed the dominance in mass flow rate, discharge coefficient and swirl because of the smooth fluid flow by shape. Swirl coefficient, outlet mass flow, and sac volume were selected as performance parameters of the injector. As a result of the comparison coefficient derivation with those performance parameters for comparing the performance of the model-specific injector, the Conv-140 model with the nozzle diameter expanded by 140% showed the best value of the comparison coefficient.

This study was performed to figure out spray behavior and fuel atomization characteristics of a piezo-driven injector and a solenoid-driven injector in the common-rail injection system under the same design parameters and test conditions. The process of spray injection was visualized by using the spray visualization system composed of a Nd:YAG laser and an ICCD camera. The atomization characteristics were investigated in terms of axial mean velocity, Sauter mean diameter(SMD) and droplet distributions obtained from a phase Doppler particle analyzer system. Compared with solenoid-driven injector, the piezo-driven injector has short injection delay and reaches quickly to the maximum injection value. Spray tip penetration shows some difference, however, spray angle of piezo-driven injector is wider than that of solenoid-driven injector. Sauter mean diameter of piezo-driven type injector is smaller than that of solenoid-driven type.

A this experimental study is executed to analyze spray characteristics for air-shrouded injector and 4hole 2spray type injector used in a gasoline engine. Since spray parameters including spray penetration and angle, SMD, and atomization characteristics are very important to increase the engine performance, the image processing algorithm for measuring the non-spherical spray diameter is developed. Spray characteristics of the air-shrouded injector(2hole 2spray) and 4hole-2spray injector are analyzed respectively by this digital image processing method. Effective spray characteristics to injectors is derived from this experimentation and obtained the design guide for gasoline injector.

This study aimed to evaluate the validity of an exhausted injector design for filtration system and the performance characteristics thereof. The evaluation was intended through computational fluid dynamics(CFD) analysis based on computer simulation rather than through prototype fabrication and testing. Furthermore, the design of experiment was used to create an experimental design table by which the reaction characteristics of response factors were analyzed for design parameters. All experiments were substituted with computer simulations. Lastly, an optimal design model for the injection tubes was determined based on response surface method algorithms.

An optimal fuel manifold is suggested to improve the cooling performance of injector face plate. The cooling performance at the center area of the injector face plate is to be augmented while the spatial injection uniformity is maintained. The comparison of the cooling performance of 7 candidates gives the conclusion that the dividing plate from 2-3 injector row to 9-10 injector row is an optimal. The maximum face plate temperature decreases by $27\%$ while the injection uniformity is close to that of the original design. The pressure drop in the fuel manifold of the optimal design is also same as the original design.

To understand the atomization performance in gas-liquid swirl-coaxial injector applied to a small rocket engine, a cold-flow test was performed by varying the design parameters and supply condition of propellants. As the swirl-chamber diameter and the angle of the convergent section, which are design parameters of injector increased, the spray performance of the injector improved by increasing the swirl strength. In addition, as the gas-liquid momentum-flux ratio increased, the gas flow separated some of the droplets from the liquid film, and a gas-droplet mixture core was formed in the center of the spray sheet.

A water-flow test for acceptance verification is carried out for a nonimpinging-type injector prior to the design-performance verification of hydrazine thruster under development. The injector used in the experiment is to be equipped on the hydrazine thruster producing 70 N of nominal thrust at an inlet pressure of 24.6 $kg_f/cm^2$. It is observed that there exist varying characteristics of atomization among the injector-nozzle orifices caused by a fabrication error which can be judged from a microscopic standpoint. On the other hand, all of the injector orifices are placed within the design criteria in an injection-angle performance.
