Internal flow and air core dynamics in simplex and spill-return pressure-swirl atomizers

Abstract: It is well known that the spray characteristics of pressure-swirl atomizers are strongly linked to the internal flow and that an unstable air core may cause instabilities in the spray. In this paper, a 10:1 scale transparent Plexiglas (PMMA) model of a pressure-swirl atomizer as used in a small gas turbine is introduced. The internal flow was examined using high-speed imaging, laser-Doppler anemometry and computational fluid dynamics tools. The experimental and numerical results were analysed and compared in t… Show more

“…Different spray patterns were introduced, and the spray cone angle is given an equation for computing it, which is also a function of geometrical properties of the injector. (Maly, Jedelsky, et al, 2018) and (Maly, Slama, et al, 2019) discuss the numerical simulation of a pressure-swirl atomizer by taking advantage of the axisymmetry of the problem. The Volume of Fluid (VOF) method from ANSYS Fluent commercial software is employed to good agreement with experimental data, using a laminar model.…”
