In the standard CFD code, Lagrangian-Eulerian method is very popular to simulate the liquid spray penetrating into gaseous phase. Though this method can give a simple solution and low computational cost, it have been reported that the Lagrangian spray models have numerical grid dependency, resulting in serious numerical errors. Many researches have shown the grid dependency arise from two sources. The first is due to unaccurate prediction of the droplet-gas relative velocity, and the second is that the probability of binary droplet collision is dependent on the grid resolution. In order to solve the grid dependency problem, the improved spray models are implemented in the KIVA-3V code in this study. For reducing the errors in predicting the relative velocity, the momentum gain from the gaseous phase to liquid particles were resolved according to the gas-jet theory. In addition, the advanced algorithm of the droplet collision modeling which surmounts the grid dependency problem was applied. Then, in order to validate the improved spray model, the computation is compared to the experimental results. By simultaneously regarding the momentum coupling and the droplet collision modeling, successful reduction of the numerical grid dependency could be accomplished in the simulation of the high-pressure injection diesel spray.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of swirler vane angle and the aspect ratio of swirl chamber of nozzle on the characteristics of single spray. The characteristics of sprat's have been investigated by measuring the spray angle, droplet size and velocity Visualization of spray was conducted to obtain the spray angle and breakup process. The spray characteristics such as droplet size and velocity were measured by Phase Doppler Anemometry(PDA). It was found that the spray angle was increased with increasing the swirler angle. For both sprays, the axial velocity and SMD were decreased with increasing the swirler vane angle. It was also shown that the axial velocity and SMD were decreased with increasing the aspect ratio of swirl chamber The effect of vane angle un the spray characteristics was greater than the aspect ratio of swirl chamber for single spray.

The automotive industry as the major industry of the nation has affected both society and economy since the automobile was invented, and the main technique that help to performance improvement of the automobile has been developed. But, the painting technique lags behind the main technique of the automobile because that was neglected. Specially, we can say that in case of the painting technique of the automobile of our nation is so weak situation. After we changed the injecting pressure, the composition ratio (paint, hardener, thinner) and the injecting flow rate from spray-gun by PDPA, we studied the character of the injecting velocity and droplet size, and found the fittest condition. So, we got the following result to help mending paint technique of automobile surface. We could know the following fact from the experiment result. When it does mending paint of automobile, there is most suitable that to inject the paint as injecting pressure 200∼300 kPa and to inject the ratio of paint 10 : 1 : 1 when the fluid adjective knob valve spay-gun is open full.

횡단류 아음속유동장에서 연료의 수직 분사시 나타나는 액적영역의 액적들을 직접사진촬영으로 측정하고 PLLIF 실험을 통하여 얻은 강도 값으로 SMD분포를 측정하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 정상유동에서의 액적들의 크기 및 분포를 관찰하고, 캐비테이션 및 수력튀김 현상에 대한 액적들의 차이를 확인하는 것이다. 실험을 통하여 정상유동의 액적들은 분사차압, 공기의 유속, 침투거리, 인젝터 지름에 대한 하류방향 거리비(x/d)에 의하여 결정되며, 캐비테이션에 의한 난류강도, 유효지름에 따라 차이가 있음을 확인하였다.

The present study has numerically analyzed the vaporization characteristics of fuel droplets in the high temperature convective flow field. The axisymmetric governing equations for mass, momentum, energy, and species are solved by an iterative and implicite unstructured finite-volume method. The moving boundary due to vaporization is handled by the deformable unstructured grid technique. The pressure-velocity coupling in the density-variable flows is treated by the SIMPLEC algorithm. In terms of the matrix solver, Bi-CGSTAB is employed for the numerically efficient and stable convergence. The n-decane is used as a liquid fuel and the initial droplet temperature is 300K. Computations are performed for the nonevaporating and evaporating droplets with the relative interphase velocity(25m/s). The unsteady vaporization process has been simulated up to the nondimensional time, 25. Numerical results indicate that the mathematical model developed in this study succesfully simulates the main features of the droplet vaporization process in the convective environment.

This paper present the diesel fuel spray evolution and atomization performance in a multi-hole nozzle in terms of injection rate, spray evolutions, and mean diameter and velocity of droplets in a compression ignition engine. In order to study the effect of split injection on the diesel fuel spray and atomization characteristic in a multi-hole nozzle, the test nozzle that has two-row small orifice with 0.2 mm interval was used. The time based fuel injection rate characteristics was analyzed from the pressure variation generated in a measuring tube. The spray characteristics of a multi-hole nozzle were visualized and measured by spray visualization system and phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA) system. It was revealed that the total injected fuel quantities of split injection are smaller than those of single injection condition. In case of injection rate characteristics, the split injection is a little lower than single injection and the peak value of second injection rate is lower than single injection. The spray velocity of split injection is also lower because of short energizing duration and small injection mass. It can not observe the improvement of droplet atomization due to the split injection, however, it enhances the droplet distributions at the early stage of fuel injection.

It is well known that the flow and spray characteristics is critical factor on the performance and emission of a direct injection diesel engine. So this study aims to investigate the interaction of flow and spray characteristics. At first, in cylinder flow distributions in swirl adaptor for 4-valve cylinder head of DI Diesel engine were investigated under steady conditions for different SCV angles mounted on the cylinder head with steady rig test and 2-D LDV. And the in-cylinder flow was quantified in terms of mean flow coefficient and swirl ratio/tumble ratio. It was found that the swirl ratio is controlled between 2.3 and 3.8. Then spray characteristics of the intermittent injection were investigated. PDA system was utilized for measurement of a droplet size and velocity. The analyses of the PDA results are carried out with Time Dividing Method. It was found that there is a correlation between the swirl flow and SMD. The droplet size and the velocity were nearly constant value with each SCV angle. And the swirl ratio is higher, SMD smaller. The swirl ratio was helpful factor to the atomization of droplet.

Spray drift of agricultural nozzles has become a big issue because it causes low precision targeting and environmental pollution. In order to reduce the spray drift, study spray characteristics of agricultural nozzles is virtually important. In this study, shadowgraph and Mie-scattering visualization techniques were used to study the macroscopic spray and atomization characteristics of an agricultural nozzle. PDPA was used to measure the atomization characteristics of spray. The injection pressure is set to 1 bar, 3 bar and 5 bar, which covers the working range of the nozzle. For the PDPA experiment, 75 points were measured in an area of 160 mm × 120 mm at 10 mm intervals directly below the nozzle to grasp the overall atomization characteristics of the spray. It was found that the spray width and sheet width showed a linear correlation. As the injection pressure increased, the sheet expansion in the 0-degree direction and the sheet swing in the 90-degree direction jointly promoted the breakup of the sheet. In addition, the area close to the central axis had a large droplet velocity, and since a large droplet velocity promoted atomization of spray, the area close to the central axis had a smaller spray droplet diameter than the left and right regions.
