Abstract:
This paper presents numerical study on spray characteristics and droplet distribution by using Lagrangian method in the discrete phase model of CFD. A two-fluid Eulerian method and Lagrangian approach is selected for modeling two phases turbulence flow in mixing chamber and atomization at outlet of nozzle while turbulence has been modeled by K-ɛ. In this study, water has been used instead of fuel and Nitrogen instead of atomization gas or oxidizer, while their ratio has been considered 0.32 to provide 26 degrees cone angle and this way, droplet‘s characteristic has been studied and compared with maximum entropy methods. Then droplet‘s diameter has been investigated by changing liquid and gas phase flow rateand based on that, we can optimize atomizer ‘s working condition with maximum efficiency with respect to its cone angle, droplet ‘s diameter and velocity and level of penetration by minimum need of experimental tests.
