Abstract

The outflow of the effervescent atomization spray is simulated by a comprehensive numerical model based on the Navier-Stokes equation and the particle tracking method. The droplet mean diameter under different operating conditions and liquid properties were calculated. Based on the extensive computations, a formula relating droplet Sauter mean diameter to the operating conditions and liquid physical parameters were obtained with curve fitting technique. The results calculated from the formulae were compared with the experimental data and a good agreement was obtained. The formulae can be used to predict the droplet mean diameter for various Newtonian liquid in axisymmetric effervescent atomization spray conveniently and effectively.
