| Abstract | Abstract A detailed characterization of a methanol spray produced by an air-assist atomizer with swirling atomizing air has been conducted. This study is the third of a series which examines the structure of sprays produced by a standardized atomizer which can be operated in three modes, pressure swirl, non-swirling air-assist, and swirling air-assist. Measurements of drop size and three components of velocity, three components of the gas phase velocity, the concentration of hydrocarbons within the spray, and time resolved droplet measurements are obtained at axial locations of 7·5, 15, 25, 35, 50, 75, and 100 mm. These measurements are obtained for both reacting and non-reacting cases. In addition, the atomizing air flow in the absence of the spray is characterized. Primary observations from the present study are that (1) the presence of the drops alters the structure of the gas phase turbulence, including the degree of isotropy, (2) the presence of reaction strongly impacts the axial and radial velocity... |
