Abstract
The effects of flashing on black liquor spray patterns were investigated by analyzing numerous spray images obtained from laboratory experiments using small scale splashplate nozzles with water and experiments using actual size splashplate nozzles with black liquor. The results showed that flashing produces small droplets and increases droplet velocity. The liquor mass flow rate varies with direction: the rate is higher at the center than at the sides of the spray sheet, particularly at a lower excess temperature. At a higher excess temperature, however, the mass distribution becomes more uniform across the spray sheet. Criteria were developed for predicting the onset of flashing and for estimating the mean droplet size of the black liquor spray under flashing conditions.
