The effects of spray parameters on droplets Santer mean diameter (SMD), droplet collision speed, the thickness of liquid-film, the surface temperature and its uniformity were analyzed in the present study. The simulation results and the experimental data obtained in the available literature agree within 13.8%, The computational results show that the spray pressure is the main factor to realize the atomization. Increasing the mass flux and the spray pressure, the droplet collision speed increases while the corresponding maximum film thickness on the heated surface declines. The surface temperature changes indistinctively with the increase of the spray distance, but the temperature distribution tends to be uniform.展开更多
