Spray characteristics of external mixing sonic twin-fluid atomization nozzles are investigated experimentally. Particle sizes are measured by the Fraunhofer diffraction method using the Malvern particle analyzer, and their radial distributions are obtained using the tomographical transformation technique. The spatial distribution of SMD shows that the drop size increases in the radial direction at a fixed liquid flow rate, and the distribution is getting uniform rapidly as the atomizing gas pressure increases. The SMD decreases as the liquid flow rate increases at a fixed GLR. It is found that the atomization efficiency of the flush type sonic nozzle is superior to that of protrusion type. The effect of laser beam diameter of the particle analyzer on the spatial SMD distribution is minor at present experimental conditions.

Recently, there has been rising interest in applying urea-SCR systems to large marine diesel engines because the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has decided to enforce NOx reduction regulations. Generally, in the case of urea-SCR of the marine diesel engine, a type of twin fluid atomizer has been using for injection of the urea solution. This study conducted to investigate an effect of the atomization of external-mixing twin fluid nozzle on the conversion efficiency of reductant. The lab-scaled experiment device was installed to mimic the urea-SCR system of the marine diesel engine for this study. In a low temperature inflow gas condition which is similar with the exhaust temperature of large marine diesel engine, this study found that the conversion efficiency of reductant of when relative big size urea solution droplets are injected into exhaust gas stream can be larger than that of when small size urea solution droplets are injected. According to results of this study, the reason was associated with decrease of reaction rate constant caused from temperature drop of inflow gas by assist air of twin fluid atomizer.

Present study visualized flow pattern and investigated spray characteristics of twin-fluid atomization with converging-diverging nozzles. Particle sizes were measured by using the Malvern particle analyzer, and the radial size distributions were evaluated by using the tomographic transform technique. The results show that the SMD generally increases in the radial direction at a prescribed liquid flow rate and the increasing rate in the SMD becomes gradual as atomizing gas pressure increases. The SMD decreases as the liquid flow rate increases at a fixed GLR (gas/liquid mass ratio). The atomization performance of the protrusion-type nozzle turned out to be superior to that of the flush-type. However, in the case of the protrusion-type, flow separation occurs outside the liquid delivery tube when the pressure at the gas nozzle chamber is high enough, which may deteriorate the atomization performance.

In this research, internal-mixing twin-fluid atomizer using sonic energy is designed and manufactured. We are trying to intimate high efficiency twin-fluid atomizer to obtain good liquid atomization in the low pressure region. Define of geometric form of atomizer, characteristics of spray is influenced by position, depth and height variation of cavity resonator, variation of sound intensity and resonant sound frequency with liquid flow rate. The liquid atomization is promoted by multi-stage disintegration of mixing flow of gas with liquid and the optimum condition of position and depth of cavity resonator according to sonic energy is obtained from the condition at a=2.5mm and L=2mm. The velocity distribution of droplets shows negative value due to recirculation region at the center of axial, and as the radial direction distance is far, the velocity distribution of droplets decrease slowly after having a maximum value. However velocity and SMD show nearly uniform distribution at the down stream and as result compared to Nukiyama and Tanasawa's equation. atomization of mixing flow with air and liquid dispersing from the outlet of the nozzle is promoted by the effect of collision at the cavity resonator.

공정산업분야 및 분무연소분야에서 많이 사용되고 있는 2유체 분무기에서 출구 초음속유동의 가시화와 하류의 가스압력 측정 결과로부터 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) 과소팽창 또는 과대팽창 초음속노즐 유동에서 출구 Mach수가 일정한 경우, 유동이 박리하지 않는다면 가스의 정체압력(유량)이 증가함에 따라 노즐출구에서 충돌정체점까지의 길이와 초음속 유동영역의 길이는 증가한다. 2) 스피팅 현상은 액체공급관 출구의 흡인압력은 분사가스압력이 증가함에 따라 단조증가하지만 분사가스압력이 0.5MPa이상이 되면 증감현상이 커지며 돌출형 노즐에서 유동박리시 급격히 증가한 다음 거의 일정하게 유지된다. 4) 액체공급관 하류축상의 압력변화는 출구의 음압에서 충돌정체점까지 상승한 다음 급강하하고 충격파 세포상의 구조에 따라 진동하면서 대기압에 도달한다.

The atomization characteristics of the dual air supplying two-fluid nozzle were investigated experimentally using PIV and PDA systems. The twin-fluid nozzle is composed of three main parts: the feeding injector to supply fluid that is controlled by a PWM (pulse-width modulation) mode, the adaptor as a device with the ports for supplying the carrier and assist air, and the main nozzle to produce sprays. The main nozzle has the swirler with four equally spaced tangential slots, which gives the injecting fluid an angular momentum. The swirl angle in the swirler varied with $0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$. The ratios of carrier air to assist air and ALR (total air to liquid) were 0.55 and 1.23, respectively. The macroscopic behavior of the spray was investigated using PIV system, and the AMD and SMD distributions of the sprays were measured using PDA system. As a result, the SMD distribution increases along the radial distance, and it decreases with the increase of swirl angle in swirler.

This paper presents the experimental results of a study undertaken to develop an electrostatic spray system for a combustion application. The characteristics of the liquid atomization and the droplet dispersion in the electrostatic spray of twin fluids were investigated by the optical measurement techniques. The processes associated with the break-up of charged jets were also observed using the laser sheet visualization. The diameter and velocity of droplets were simultaneously measured using the phase Doppler measurement technique. The electrostatic atomization of the liquid fuel depended primarily on the charging voltage and the flow rate, but the dispersion of droplets depended significantly on the aerodynamic flow. Aerodynamic influences on the liquid atomization decreased with an increase of the charging voltage. Consequently, the liquid atomization and the droplet dispersion could be independently controlled using the electrostatic and aerodynamic mechanisms.
