The use of hot gas in melt atomization has been widely reported, but little detailed experimental data on its precise effects and no satisfactory theory to explain them have been published. In this paper the authors present experimental data on the atomization of metals with gas at temperatures from ambient to 1000C, a semi-empirical equation relating particle size to gas temperature and flow rate, and an analysis of the gas dynamics of the atomization process that allows some insight into the process.

Gas atomization of liquid metal using nozzle technology has more advantages over other methods. Previous study shows that high-velocity gas is important for effective liquid metal atomization. An important first step towards understanding the gas atomization using nozzle is complete evaluation of the flow fields. This will provide a basis for understanding how well high velocity gas is brought to bear on the liquid metal. Present work is a fundamental study of liquid metal atomization for various pressure ratio, different gas and temperature. A two-dimension, axisymmetry compressible Navier-Stokes equations are considered. Two-equation k-epsilon turbulence model is selected.

An update and the latest results on molten metal atomization using a Pressure-Gas-Atomizer will be given. This atomizer combines a swirl-pressure atomizer, to generate a liquid hollow cone film and a gas atomizer to atomize the film and/or the fragments of the film. The paper is focused on powder production, but this atomization system is also applicable for deposition purposes. Different alloys (Sn, SnCu) were atomized to study the characteristics of the Pressure-Gas-Atomizer.

The spherical and high quality Titanium fine powder "Tilop" has been produced with gas atomization furnace, Sumitomo Titanium Corporation originally designed. Recently, a new process which can produce Ti-alloy(Ti-6Al-4V) powders by utilizing our gas atomization process, of which raw material is sponge titanium pre-mixed with alloy chips or granules has been also developed. The particle size of gas atomized Ti-alloy powder and the mechanical properties of sintered Ti-alloy compacts prepared by metal injection molding were discussed in this study.

In this study, we compared the physical and chemical properties evaluation for each size in the SUS316L metal powder produced by water atomization and gas atomization. and we analyzed the experimental data in order to find the basis of a suitable metal powder (SUS316L) for DED (Direct Energy Deposition) processing. Also it evaluated the properties of each layered surface and cross section according to the number of deposition and deposition speed. In the result of optical microscopy measurements, the metal powder by water atomization was the crack generated between the deposition layer, the deposition layer was poor quality. However, metal powder by gas atomization was obtained a relatively good deposition results than metal powder by water atomization.

In order to improve mechanical properties, the hypereutectic Al-20 wt%Si based prealloy powder was prepared by gas atomization process. Microstructure and compressibility of the atomized Al-Si powder were investigated. The average powder size was decreased with increasing the atomization gas pressure. Size of primary Si particles of the as-atomized powder was about $5-8\;\mu{m}$. The as-atomized Al-Si powder such as AMB 2712 and AMB 7775 to increase compressibility and sinterability. Relative density of the mixed powder samples sintered at $600^{\circ}C$ was reached about 96% of a theoretical density.

Gas injection is a technique applied to improve throttling in liquid rocket engines and atomization in effervescent injectors. When a gas is injected into a liquid, it creates a two-phase flow inside the injector. The changes (bubbly flow, slug flow, annular flow, etc.) in the two-phase flow affect the injector's spray characteristics. In this study, cold-flow tests were performed by using three injectors with different orifice diameters and four aerators with different gas injection hole diameters. The experiments were done by changing the thrust ratio (liquid mass flow rate ratio) and gas-liquid mass flow rate ratio. Two-phase flow transition, breakup length, and discharge coefficient according to the injector/aerator design and flow conditions were investigated in detail.

In the present study, capability of improving the liquid atomization of a high-speed liquid jet by using wall impingement is explored, and its application to a jet engine atomize. is demonstrated. Water is injected from a thin nozzle. The liquid jet impinges on a wall positioned close to the nozzle exit, forming a liquid film. The liquid film velocity and the SMD were measured with PDA and LDSA, respectively. It was shown that the SMD of the droplets was determined by the liquid film velocity and impingement angle, regardless of the injection pressure or impingement wall diameter. When the liquid film velocity was smaller than 300m/s, a smaller SMD was obtained, compared with a simple free jet. This wall impingement technique was applied to a conventional air-blasting nozzle for jet engines. A real-size air-blasting burner was installed in a test rig in which three thin holes were made to accommodate liquid injection toward the intermediate ring, as an impingement wall. The air velocity was varied from 41 to 92m/s, and the liquid injection pressure was varied from 0.5 to 7.5 MPa. Combining wall impinging pressure atomization with gas-blasting produces remarkable improvement in atomization, which is contributed by the droplets produced in the pressure atomization mode. Comparison with the previous formulation for conventional gas-blasting atomization is also made, and the effectiveness of utilizing pressure atomization with wall impingement is shown.

It is an experimental study to improve the characteristics of combustion and exhaust emission gas in the gasoline engine. These characteristics are influenced by the fuel droplet size. To improve these characteristics, we make the ultrasonic atomization apparatus, and compare with the commercial carburetor. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Maximum atomization quantity is obtained by the vibrator of resonancy frequency 1.65MHz in the ultrasonic atomization apparatus. 2. With ultrasonic atomization apparatus, more than 99% of atomization rate can be obtained regardless of intake air temperature, velocity, and air-fuel ratio. 3. Atomization rate of the commercial carburetor increases with the air-fuel ratio and intake air temperature. 4. Difference of atomization rate between the ultrasonic atomization apparatus and the commercial carburetor increases with decreasing air-fuel ratio. 5. Droplet size is about 1-5.mu.m at the ultrasonic atomization apparatus, and 80-150.mu.m at the commercial carburetor, which indicates the ultrasonic atomization apparatus is excellent in atomization.
