摘要
Penetration depth,spray dispersion angle,droplet sizes in breakup processes and atomization processes are very important parameters in combustor of air-breathing engine.These processes will enhance air/fuel mixing inside the combustor.Experimental results from the pulsed air-assist liquid jet injected into a cross-flow are investigated.And experiments were conducted to a range of cross-flow velocities from 42～136 m/s.Air is injected with 0～300kPa,with air-assist pulsation frequency of 0～20Hz.Pulsation frequency was modulated by solenoid valve.Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer(PDPA) was utilized to quantitatively measuring droplet characteristics.High-speed CCD camera was used to obtain injected spray structure.Pulsed air-assist liquid jet will offer rapid mixing and good liquid jet penetration.Air-assist makes a very fine droplet which generated mist-like spray.Pulsed air-assist liquid jet will introduce additional supplementary turbulent mixing and control of penetration depth into a cross-flow field.The results show that pulsation frequency has an effect on penetration,transverse velocities and droplet sizes.The experimental data generated in these studies are used for a development of active control strategies to optimize the liquid jet penetration in subsonic cross-flow conditions and predict combustion low frequency instability.
